    Extend sale of TP's due to bugs

    No one in their right mind should spend 50 buckaroo's on TP's despite the special deal for headstart only due to the retroactive and loyalty reward turbine points debacle.

    How can we know if buying points will screw with our rewards further.

    If the reward points are not fixed by the time the sale is over, VIP's should be able to still buy the 6900 TP's for 50 bucks after headstart.

    Too many bugs, too little time. faith in the TP system needs be restored before people spend money on them.

    It's just logic.

    You are lucky your even able to log on tonight. Servers weren't official supposed to be open until tomorrow.

    Instead of faith in TP, have faith in Turbine that they will figure everything out and make it right.

    Sigh.

    I agree with Grampsaz. Here we are, Turbine went to a lot of effort to get the servers rolling about a half a day or more before they needed to let us into the game even earlier than Headstart and all they are getting is whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! If I were in charge of Turbine, I'd cancel Headstart. I'd apologize to those that didn't complain and then point to the forums and say, "THAT is why we can't have anymore Headstarts."

    Thank your lucky stars that Turbine isn't run by a cruel overlord like myself.
    Now have some patience.

    I'd rather they canceled or delayed headstart/release and fixed the broken store ( people buying items and not getting them, people being double charged REAL MONEY ), the broken accounts ( those subscribers who get told they can't access "subscriber only" content/services, including fast travel, the ticket system so they can't even send in a problem ticket, and others) and other problems than do like they did and rush a bugged release. What was beta for, when most of todays problems were reported in beta long before today?

    I like Turbine on the whole, but I'm sorry. They screwed the pooch and they're paying for it, just like any other developer would be when rushing out an unfinished/bugged release.

    Laugh or you want buddy, it ain't in any way justified.

    Not in my case anyway, I can afford to right now go buy a new car, crash it for fun, then have that big waste not effect bills, housekeeping or bank balances.

    I prefer to roleplay, explore and play as I wish.

    And yes, there is 150 bucks of non-cosmetic, non food, non travel stuff I can buy for my lvl 65, virtues I'll likely never use, eh I'll pay to up em all to 10.

    To some that might be a waste of gameplay or money.

    It's neither in my case, I'd rather sit in a corner and roleplay all day before grinding out 300 fireflies. Time is money, I have the money, I'll spend it to save time on grinding so I can do what I enjoy most. I've grinded enough, I have 150 bucks aside for 3 lots of 6900...

    Turbine should allow me to purchase it, but since like many others I'm experiencing bugs with the store.

    They should extend the sale for 6900 until they have the turbine store, like you know, working flawlessly for everyone so having a sale is fair game.

    I don't think you need to "prove" you have the means to buy TP or explain why you want them.

    FWIW, I hope they extend the special pricing too!
