Cryptic ****s over casual gamers

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
So I got home wanted to play a mission or 2 befor getting to bed and now I have been stuck in the queue for my whole game time for today.
I did not pay to be stuck in a queue.
I payed to be able to play when I want to. Not when the servers can squeeze me in.
You have just shown that this game was build for powergamers that do now leave the game.
The casual gamers are beeing ****ed over hard.
Now the queue starts throwing me out every minute...

Fix this ****.

    You know, part of me wants Cryptic to not only not fix the game, but to **** it up even more. Why? ...why not.

    Why you paid for the game is irrelevant. You paid money for a game that was not released yet, by an MMO dev that has a history of rocky starts and an F with the BBB. Then you log in surprised and upset and rant on the devs forums.

    Why on Earth would anyone listen to someone who makes those kinds of decisions? Seriously? That's like buying a cheap rolex knockoff from a street vendor in a trench coat, then ranting about it's quality :P

    First of all. The game has officially launched.
    I have no idea why everyone is referring to 02.02.2010 as release date. That date does not matter.
    So now I expect to get what I paid for.

    Why are you bringing up their reputation with other games?
    I do not care for other games right now. I did not even mention other games.
    I want to play STO when I have time.
    That is the only thing I want and I have paid for it.

    Now it is up to Cryptic to deliver... really fast.
    I am not the only casual gamer discontent with the situation right now.

    No it hasn't. Most vendors will still allow you to cancel your PRE-ORDER.

    Actually... the launch is feb 2nd. So you're wrong... and just kind of whiny. This is still early start. You're not even using what you paid for, which is the retail CD-key.

    I brought up other games because you mentioned your expectations...you "paid for the game" and gave a reason. Caveat Emptor, you got PRECISELY what you paid for. Had you looked, done the slightest bit of research, and thought, you wouldn't be so surprised.

    My comment was on you being upset that you're not getting what you feel you deserve. You're getting exactly what you deserve, because this is what you paid for.
