So the launch of EA and the offer of cartel points for past paid months to F2P launch is nothing more than a money grab by EA???

 

 

They have given things, vanity pets and SEVERAL free months of game play.

Quite a long time e-mails sent DIDNT have Remember, you must return as a Subscriber to take advantage of this golden opportunity! included, only RECENT ones did.

So if someone read first ones they got and trashed the other spam (like i did, but i knew from other sources) they are perfectly right in asking (and wondering) about it.

Goes for anyone happily posting their recent e-mails.

Should have stopped typing after "this is EA" nothing more is needed tbh.

That is understandble, how ever they clearly stated the requirements to be elegable for the bonus points, they didnt "con" you,

you just chose not to meet the requirements.

And again, they did give loyal customers extras, like several month of free game time and a vanity pet to name something and actual loyal customers get more coins then the ones that stopped being loyal when they terminated their subscription.

Then I try to put it in the end, it's small stuff anyway...

So, at first I goofed with my new free acc to check the feeling what the truly newcomers get (lol), and just now tried my actual acc. I don't waste time for the usual (4/2 chars, no side bars, credits are gone above the limit, etc) just one small stuff: I lost my rested xp. Not meaning the option to receive rested xp, as that's a clear sub-only feature, I mean my actual one which I got earlier :)

It's so small stuff that it's barely worth to mention, that's why it can be a clear telling sign of a company. Maybe that's why in LotRO you keep your stuff (and rested xp of course) after you drop to premium. But that is Turbine.

This is chEAp :) and nothing more is needed as Senden wrote.

As someone else in here stated, original emails did not include the requirement to be subbed to get the coins. I just checked my original emails and have not seen this requirement but its ok. 

Forget this and move on, can still buy off the market using my ingame currency some of the things. But I nolonger have access to all that currency I saved from playing before for 8 months.

On every single emails I received concerning the coins they stated the (payed) active subscription requirement, the last one used bolt letters to put an accent on it. It always was in their FAQ and all emails revered to the official site for more information.

But I love to see a screeny of the email you claim to have.

Ill admit Im not a big fan of the credit limit on the otherhand, sadly it makes sense considering they did open the door to RMT.

Sorry dude, they spammend me with e-mails first one i received DEFINATELY didnt have that line, rest were auto trashed.

And if they are incapable of simple copy/paste of information so you have to double check stuff...

Also they changed former subscriber deadline last week so they will change emails (i guess).

It doesn't matter.

People who didn't resub will still be EA's prime target market for enticing into F2P land. To this end EA will make new offers. And then even bigger and better offers.

The only thing that will stop this is if EA have 250k subscribers and 5M F2P folk this weekend ... with 5% the the F2P folk actually spending some money. And of course the servers won;t be breaking a sweat with 500k+ per server!

Having got their 5M F2P folk the real problems start hower - they have to hold on to them next month and the month after ....

There will be new e-mails ....

They are more then addicting LOL... I got though several cool items, inluding several naked torso chest pieces for my male characters and companions...

25K CC???????  How much in real money is that?  I bought one of them and got a female headpiece, dangit!
