Yep, I have been a subber of AOC since launch and yes I bought the 12 month pack a year ago and got the beta access to TSW. But now TSW is here and I dont get the key! Wow! Ive been funcommed....again! Then Contrarii comes and smacks arse by saying we will get it just before the game launches! Wow! We got lied again! So, we get access what? 2 days or 3 days before launch? Wow! You tricked us again! When will we just stop pumping money in their games! They are lyers and cheaters! Plain and simple!

While it is a bit shadey it is not liying to you unless it stated that you would be first in to the beta. You are getting in to the beta and thus they have fullfilled their part of the deal.

 

But if you would be so kind and post the ad it self things would be a lot clearer.

This have been a good conversation

The way they are doing it is pretty much the same as these things always are. Pre-order etc to get access -at some point- usually just bwefore open beta or launch. It's not bad practice by Funcom but just something that is the norm.

Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

Even reading your post twice I still can plainly see that screaming LYERS and CHEATERS is just making you look plain dumb, naive at best, what Funcomm are doing is a spin job, a promotional tool or MARKETING

 They have not lied they may have dressed the truth up in a fancy dress and slapped a bucket load of make up on a butt ugly face that youare in fact getting a short preview of the final stages of a beta, but the key thing is, its still BETA access so deal is true in essence.

Funcomm is not the only Muppets doing this in town, so get over it move on, also note your have a couple of threads about different Funcomm issues and most boil down to life experience issues and understanding proceedure.

HOWEVER after Ive said all that, I do not condone the practise, its just a marketing tatic see it for what it is, and not what you wished it would be.

Currently Subbed EVE, thats it after years off MMO play I am reduced to one sub due to the massive levels of CRAP in the market.
