I couldn't care less what anyone other than CCP thinks about this. They sold me a Merc Pack that included items to be used in Beta, and another set to be used at Commercial Release.
If CCP screwed up and that's not what they intended, then that's THEIR problem, not mine. If they don't want to give me the stuff I paid for, they can refund my $20.
What is NOT acceptable is giving me a choice between getting the item I paid $20 for and keeping my character progress. If that is the choice they give me, I'll delete the game, plain and simple. It's not about the money, it's the principle. |

But thanks anyway. While not actually what I was asking for, your link is helpful and useful for other aspects of the discussion. I believe the wording on the screen shot is cut and dry on CCP's intent. At the time of selling the product they where intent on refunding AUR at every reset and also upon commercial release of the game. I don't beleive a game can be in both open beta and commercial release at the same time, nor have I EVER seen a company that is confused as to whether or not their game has been released. My question is has CCP come out with a statement explaining that AUR is not going to be refunded? Or are people whining on the forums because of a feeling that CCP isn't going to honor their original agreement?
The question came up soon after they announced "no more SP resets". It dawned on people back then (in January) that this was going to throw a wrench in the Merc Pack deal, and people started asking basically "how does this affect the merc pack?" here on the forums, but CCP never answered. As time went on, this question got asked over and over again, and CCP usually just locks the threads. They, for some reason, refuse to comment on this complication, and THAT is why the question keeps coming up, and why people are worried that they were going to change the Merc Pack ex post facto from the point of sale on us. |

*IMPORTANT NOTICE: During beta periods, CCP may need to reset characters, skills and other items included in the DUST 514-« GameStop Mercenary Pack. DUST 514-« GameStop Mercenary Pack will be credited in full to your in-game DUST 514-« account after each character reset and for the commercial release. CCP cannot guarantee all items will be identical and reserves the right to substitute items of similar value. No other form of refund is permitted.
People are reading that to mean that a character reset and Merc pack reset are separate but they are not and never had been, and anyone with a shred of common sense would realize that. This part "DUST 514-« GameStop Mercenary Pack will be credited in full to your in-game DUST 514-« account after each character reset and for the commercial release. " being part of the overall disclaimer is specifically referring to a commercial reset at release, whether people are interpereting it that way or not.
Sorry but your understanding of the English language is incorrect. The word AND indicates to seperate conditions. For example: If I was applying for a job that required me to have my Masters in Mathematics and to speak French then I would not get the job, because i do not speak French. No it does not, because if they never had a character reset there would never be any reason to refund the merc pack. The entire disclaimer deals with character resets FFS. How is that so ******* difficult to understand. EVERYTHING in the disclaimer is to do with character resets.
That's just blatantly wrong. Learn to read bro. |

It's a fact that the most fair thing to do would be to reset everyone EXCEPT for the people who bought the original Merc Pack.
Because facts people, facts. |
