Do you honestly read quests about why some npc wants X mobs destoryed? Who cares? I don't find it engaging in the least. All I do is click as fast as possible to accept quests at the quest hub, then run around the map killing stuff with ! on their head. When I see the horribly low xp quest after turning in a few, it means it's time to move on to the next hub.

I find the gameplay itself fun as hell and doing stuff with my guild is a blast. But the hub to hub quest leveing mechanism is absolutely horrible and dated. Do you really need this explained?

No I just want to know what you expected, since I found your complaint retarded at best. I do not read the quest logs, and I never have, probably never will. No game can make an interesting story behind killing X mobs, so I don't care about it.
SWTOR tried by giving voice overs and cutscenes with each quest, but it was just annoying as hell and most people ended up skipping them anyways and just doing whatever the NPC wanted. There is no way to make a somewhat lengty MMORPG without grinding quests. You just can't get around it, well you can by having no quests and grinding without them.

Seriously, what did you expect?

My subscription ran out, even though I just bought the CE. Oh well, I have other stuff to do today.

I expected the mother of all MMOs to redefine the entire genre from the ground up and have a complex and unique storyline akin to a single player 50yr game. Isn't that exactly how TERA marketed themselves?!

Oh wait no, they said it was fun combat, and that's true. The rest they never even said was changed.

Send in a ticket to the support team, they should be able to fix that. They've been having issues with it

They posted that you still have to set up a subscription, but won't be charged until after 30 days.

Got this problem as well, even then it won't let me pick a subscription as it keeps failing on me....

Oh well, ticket sent in. Hopefully it's fixed soon.

I set up a subscription, didn't have to pay anything and started playing again.

Edit: Correction, my card just got charged.

Another thing that's not meant to happen that they know about, contact the support team! Buggy release is buggy

Yeah, I've already submitted tickets, but as long as it gets sorted out, $15 is a big deal.

**remdynex** · 2012-05-03 17:56

Still no answer on my ticket, not expecting one any time soon but as of today i have 0 Days left according to my account lol.

I keep getting failed response on all the subscription plans. This company needs to be more like SE when it comes to taking money....

Guess this gives me time to buy/play PE3 from psn store.

**Laude** · 2012-05-03 18:49

I'm 580-ish in que for chat support right now, AND I'm in a que on their phone line. Like a boss.

**Indalecia** · 2012-05-03 19:05

I just flat got kicked. Apparantly, the sub bug I had on launch day WASN'T fixed. So yeah, 630 in line on the day I FINALLY finished all my finals and settled in to play.

So fucking pissed

**Laude** · 2012-05-03 22:13

Still in chat que, 150, lol. 3 and a half hours, and still on que on the phone line, too.

**Laude** · 2012-05-03 22:52

Update: Finally go through on the phone. They pretty much said they know there's a problem, and they'll have an answer/solution in 2-3 days. Dude was cool as shit and gave me 3 free grace days while the issue is being fixed, so I have until May 7th now. When he punched in my e-mail he goes "Annnd survey says... show me potato salad! *co-worker in background says "Potato Salad!"*" XD

The camera jogs slightly to the right whenever I'm moving forward quickly.

Once I noticed it became almost unbearable. Try running forward on a mount or while sprinting.

I've never had a problem with this, but if you want to change where your camera situates itself when following you (to a degree), you can use Shift+Arrow keys.

**Zetanio** · 2012-05-04 01:22

I didn't try to hard to fix it honestly. It was right before I logged off for the day. I'll try that out tomorrow.

**Argdar** · 2012-05-04 14:43

There hasn't been a single storyline fight anywhere that I was happy to see allied npcs "helping" me kill things. I have a giant axe, I can kill things fine. That stupid fight against Thulsa in Allamantheia didn't complete across four attempts for some stupid reason despite me getting first and last hits and doing way, way over 51% damage against him. It wasn't until a guildmate caught up and we rushed him that I got credit. Some of my friends ran into this problem on the Isle of Dawn because they've only been playing for 2-3 hours and their npc helper glitches them out of the win on that short dungeon because they may not have the combat down completely yet.

Seriously, what is even the point of adding "helpers" if using them for what is ostensibly their purpose will just screw you out of the win anyway?

Probably for the same reason a lot of the other quirks in the game suck ass and reek of "Why didn't they test this?". I'm not sure why Story mobs don't just give credit to everyone who touches them anyways. What difference does it make? It's not a world boss that actually drops something.

All I had for the last two hours in the game was PVP Engaged, PVP Ended messages because one person in my party had high infamy, and every time I heal/buffed him it was considered 'attacking' him. Makes me wonder if it'd do the same shit if you party up with someone who's in a guild that's at war with you.
