    I sick of hearing people say "It's normal for MMO's to launch like this"
    I for one think that if we are paying for access we should expect access.

    No working service should mean no charge for downtime.
    That goes for lack of access to subscription activations

    Only thing you can do is keep trying to push it through or wait until tonight. Welcome to launch day of an MMO folks.

    Funny... get as far as to adding key then it ask for me to pay extra for another 30 days... didn't this game come with 30 days free? Or is this another 'micro transaction' we have to suffer?

    Complete and utter BS If I hadnt bought it digitally I would seriously return the game. At this point if your making an mmo and are not prepared for launch day billing and subscriptions you need to hang it up. FFS even a rat learns by trial and error....

    I can understand the main game servers getting lagged form launch day but if they can't even keep the subscription server up to activate new customers....

    Hell even the forums are timing out and the PM mail service keeps going down

    I have been on hold waiting for billing support for 90 minutes. Guess I will just go play some Warhammer since it doesn't look like Cryptic was prepared for the launch. :mad:

    for those that have their key in, was it from gamestop? or where did you purchase, wondering if a trend it cropping up

    This is about the last straw with me. Ive tried being patient and not bashing. However ths sucks my key first said that the processing was down and now it says that my key has already been used. I suppose it is time to send them a message asking for my money back or a key that will work or for them to fix this thing now that its live. Sucks even worse as I was enjoying it before this.

    Well, the gametime you bought starts running down at the moment you are able to activate the key. Reinburses itsself you see? And yes, you are talking about the first few hours of an MMO launch, i'm actually surprised the website isn't down or running slow yet..

    The gameservers are handeling it well though, It's still running smooth without any lag worth mentioning.

    with all the bugs, crashes, the fact that the headstart isnt a headstart if you want to use your preorder bonus items and the bashing on the forums i have still been patient.

    but this is it for me i think.......if the site doesnt want to take my details then fine, i shall go back to a proper MMO that i know works.

    Also i heard that some people that keep trying keep getting the small charge to see if the account work which is causing fraud issues for some people!

    WAR had a smotther launch than this....just fed up now...i dont have alot of time to play due to work but i'm not prepared to waste time "trying" to play.

    Sorry my post isn't helpful but like i say...thats it now

    I would like to see a clear list of how to get your key and where and how to put it in, I have been searching the posts and I'm now totally confuse about every thing ?!?! I read that the key was mailed out on the 11 of last month, it wasn't to me ! I read you have to go into the C Store I cant find it? I downloaded from D2D and I cant see any thing on there site about it other than I would get it! Why is there not a clear thread on how to get this done I'm really sick of reading about other people in the same boat I want to know how to get it done !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M LOSING FAITH IN STO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
