    Darn it. I don't have enough Dil for a ship sale yet.

    Likewise. Still saving up for the cross faction multi mission pack.
    Always pay at least half of a purchase with dilithium converted Zen to avoid any P2W and the conversion amount is not yet sufficient for the pack i am aiming for.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Did the sale end early? I don't see any notices about discounts in game.

    I would like to know why the sale ended a full day early? I was going to buy a ship bundle and some account bank slots. the key word (WAS)

    Ok, it's not just me then.

    To recap, yes, the sale ended prematurely.

    No, Cryptic, it doesn't happen to everyone.
    Yes, it is a big deal.

    :D

    annoying. I was about to buy a 4800z ship bundle, logged in and... surprise! the sale is over 24h earlier than what has been announced, sadly.

    Same here :'( Maybe save for Nov. :(

    Yeah, I almost had enough for a ship, was going to refine a bunch of dilithium across my characters tonight, and get it in the morning. Now I can't.
    That's very annoying.

    Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

    "From August 30th at 8am PT to September 4th at 10am PT, on PC and Playstation 4, we are having a 20% ship sale. Enjoy not just a discount on our ships, but fleet modules, dry dock slots and ship upgrade tokens as well!"

    Yep, They ended the sale early. Oddly enough, the bonus zen sale is still running perfectly however.

    Meh...these seem to be happening all the time now. Just wait a few weeks and it will be back. Honestly at this point, wait for the black friday sale and get most likely an even bigger discount.

    While that may be true, it's still false advertising to end it a day early, without any notice. So It's likely an error that they will hopefully address and offer an extension.

    Leave it to Cryptic..

    These guys just can't get anything right. The funny thing is, when I first read the blog stating that it goes until September 4th my very first thought was 'I bet they end it 24 hours early and never say a word about it.'

    It's almost as if they have done this before. :smiley:

    Notice how they're not bothering to address the issue, here or on any of their social media?

    I'll give em the benefit of the doubt and assume they had Monday off for the holiday. Lets see if they do anything come Tuesday.

    Well, we can hope....there is a new Executive Producer....but unclear on if he has anything to do with the sales department. I would think he deals more with content production. This will probably land squarely on Kael's desk.

  • So, no answer at all? Some people spent real money in order to take advantage of the sale prices, with the expectation that they would remain in effect through the entire time frame specified.

    Yeah, I was about to get the Bortasqu' pack yesterday only to find the sale ended early. No surprise there's no explanation in the forums. They just lost out on a sale, one among many I'm sure.

    Disappointed that there has been no response...not surprised, really, but still disappointed. Like I said in my post on the C-Store forum, I was really close to getting 2 of the cross-faction 3-packs with what Dil I had saved (close enough I'd have dropped $10 to make up); was waiting until Monday night's refine reset to see where I was ultimately at, and that's when I saw the sale was over early.

    It's one thing for the blog to be wrong and it was only until the 3rd; it's another thing entirely to advertise until the 4th for both ships and zen bonus, and have the ship part end early, while the zen bonus still runs as advertised...

    I would’ve liked to have seen some sort of acknowledgement of the mistake. Apparently even that is too much to ask. :/

    No response on the forums here.
    No response on Facebook,
    No response on Twitter.
    No response to in-game support ticket.

    Not surprised really. Guess I'll just have my credit card company reverse the charges for the Zen I bought, that was supposed to go towards the Temporal 3 ship bundle. Cryptic clearly doesn't care enough to want the sale.

    Do they not still perma ban people for credit card reversals?

    Cryptic doesn't view it as a big deal because they've trained the majority of players to just accept whatever they do to them, like this response earlier in the thread:
