Blizzard/MMO Frustration.

[juzalol]

lol...

The annual pass is only a commitment to pay the subscription fee so you're getting Diablo for free.

Get your facts right before you post

Subscription fee is to pay for the development of new content.

You get no new content before MoP launches.

You paid 100$ for nothing and got a copy of Diablo III for free.

Gz.

[Curanhadin]

Your post is wrong on pretty much everything you said, first off you get D3 for free and there is no subscription fee, second the wording states you are guarenteed to beta test a future blizz product it doesnt say the first second we open up the beta every single AP user will get in that exact moment. Also like blizz has stated only about a million times check your battle.net profile as not everyone who has been invited to the beta has recieved an email or it is in your spam folder. I was on my battle,net account and was playing beta 3days before my email arrived. I dont see blizz being at fault in any of this I see it mostly as your problem so deal with it and quit whining.

Please tell me your secret how to play without paying for a subscription.

I think it's hard for the Blizzard management to resist the Activision influence or the push from Bobby Kotick.

If you want change, speak with you wallet, not forum posts.

I wonder if they even notice the people that DO speak with their wallet, since the rest of the people seem to compensate for that loss by buying all sorts of mounts and pets from the Blizzard store. It's like their income doesn't change, only where it's generated from.

[TJ]

Yeah I was forced to pay for the AP because Blizzard held a gun to my head, I didn't have a choice. Oh wait.

You had a choice and you made the decision, it's not a scam and it's your own fault for agreeing to something you were too stupid to properly think about.

The OP reminds me of ppl that will sue for there coffee being hot, like they didn't know it would hot lol. Oh man your coffee burned me it was hot! Well duh coffee is suppsoe to be hot lol. Maybe the OP is a troll? lol

lol diablo 3 has no sub fees it's been free since they made the game. I hope you're trolling lol.

[Justforthis123]

Annual pass was a great thing , imnsho.

Pay wow for 1 year ? i would have in anycase.
MoP beta ? great thing this too, been testing it since i got the access and didnt get bored ( despite the million errors per day i get )
D3 for free ? great , coz i'd have bought it in anycase.

I wish next pass will give us sc2 expansions free and maybe some d3 expansion or sort of .

[Huddy]

So "I signed up three days ago to the annual pass and i cant believe i still haven't been invited to the beta yet but they already have my money and MoP's crap anyway i want my money back."

Gz.

I heard 100$ is a lot of money for playing a sub based game for a year and getting another game for free.

[Flimsy]

I love the annual pass deal, not only do I still play WoW but I get to try the beta and I also get a free copy of Diablo 3....I would be paying without the pass anyway I got the extra stuff for free, its gonna feel even sweeter on the 15th when Diablo is released.

[Baine]

Annual pass was the biggest scam ever because they made people pay $100 for a copy of Diablo 3...lol.

WoW has nothing new, all content has been cleared for months so people are paying to sit around cities waiting for their "FREE" copies of Diablo. By the time MoP comes out the annual pass will almost be done and you'll have gotten nothing from WoW in almost a year except a mount.

Speak for yourself. I am not sitting anywhere. Still have plenty to do in the game. Old game content is still fun... it is your problem if you can't find any interest in WoW.

I knew I was to subscribe the whole year to WoW (I subscribe for periods of 6 months) so I got some nice free perks.

[Zoma]

lol diablo 3 has no sub fees it's been free since they made the game. I hope you're trolling lol.

I think he was refering to the wow sub

[Lilbruz]

I think that next time Blizzard does a promotion like this, they have to add some sort of CAPTCHA test before you are able to get to click "Sign up". Just make it something simple like 3 questions:

What is 4+3 ?

What is the third letter in the alphabet ?

Have you gone to school for more than 2 years ?

That should sort out the majority of idiots that dont read stuff before they agree to it, and also, it will mean less idiotic "omg Blizz scammed meeee" posts

[Otiswhitaker]

In this and all topics of it's ilk: There's absolutely nothing wrong with anything so long as you don't have to do it, and it works for you.

I'm happy with my annual pass, but I'm not so far up somewhere that I can't understand why some people would be miffed with it. Nor do I care for companies enticing you with presents into financial commitments via contracts all too much. (Nor should most people, it's why the cell phone companies are god awful!)

PLEASE, I BEG YOU - go over to the Blizz Forum and post it there in the hopes they pick it up!
(In hope of less AP QQ-Posts on MMO )

a) Subscription fee is to pay for the development of new content.
b) You get no new content before MoP launches.
c) You paid 100$ for nothing and got a copy of Diablo III for free.

a) That maybe for your game - with wow you pay for playing not for them developing new content. when you buy an x-pac - thats the time you pay for developing...
b) So you wrok withing Blizz/Activision? (somehow I strongly doubt that)
c) apart from 12*10$ = 120$ bucks it must be "you pay to continue playing wow AND get a FREE copy of Diablo 3"

it's why the cell phone companies are god awful!)

That why PRE-Paid exists...

Gz.

errr did i miss a memo where they said sub fee was for new content development?
cause i'm pretty sure it's primary function is server maintenance, customer service, and paying people's salaries. maybe i'm wrong.

[Wigglesworth]

Op : mother can i use your credit card to buy something
Mother : what is it first
Op: its a year sub to Warcraft but i also get to test there up and coming beta and also i get a free game out of it also
Mother : No way, you spent too much time on that machine already
Op : www.mmo-champion.com create thread Blizzard/MMO Frustration.

[Zaelsino]

Alright, this has turned sour.

There are plenty of threads about the AP floating around either way.
