Why should they be required to return money to you because you failed to follow the terms of service? There is just no logical reasoning behind that what so ever.
Why would you limit yourself to one type of play method? You know, the one and only type where you can be suspended and banned from?
I hate to break it to you but this is jut now how reality works. You still have full access to every single item you purchased. You have the ability to play the game and use those items. Just because you want to throw a hissy fit about it and cry “but I can’t play X way so I want my money back” doesn’t cut it. You agreed to the Terms of Service, and now you have to deal with the consequences of your choices.
I didn’t see a clause in the agreement that you can’t build 2 small stoves and you can get a permanent ban for that. Show me the base where all the huge machines, the wheel of pain, the corral, the stables, the pyramid are located and 100% this base will be blocked. There are simply no specific rules for building, with 12 people in the clan for 5000 hours, no one understands the rules. The company could at least give specific explanations for each block, and not send out standard letters “you are blocking construction sites and resources”
So what? Since you’re the one talking about “clauses”, was there a clause anywhere that said your intentions when buying from the Bazaar mattered?
Bazaar does not sell content for official servers, it sells content for the game. You still have access to your content, even if you don’t have access to official servers.
“I bought this loaf of bread to feed it to the ducks, but the park ranger said we’re not allowed to feed ducks. I demand a refund!”
Like @Oduda said, that’s not how reality works. Grow up already.
Yes, they should be specific and detailed. Then people who got banned wouldn’t be able misrepresent the situation and claim that they were banned for 2 small stoves.
Its saddly what happened to you i hate when players get banned with no explain and because of builds but you are no the first one to be banned by the undetailed unclear rules yes they wont specific in most time what you have done wrong.
I hight advise if you like to build and play with other players to move to another game until they change the rules because right now the rules are very unclear and in most times are begin used like a weapon.
I don’t need a single player game and a game on private servers. I made purchases for an online game. Advertisement of the GAME “YOU CAN BUILD ANYWHERE AND AS YOU WANT” I repeat once again the number of blocks does not affect the blocking, but the number of complaints and the persistence of your opponents affects. If you want to check, write the server number and the coordinates of your base
The part you fail to grasp is that nobody care for what you “need”. You bought something. You used it for a non-trivial amount of time. Now it’s suddenly not useful to anymore? Tough luck, no refund.
And you can still play online.
But that doesn’t matter. You bought something for Conan Exiles and you can still play Conan Exiles.
You can throw as much of a childish temper tantrum as you want, but it won’t change the facts.
Example: you bought bread, but the company is obliged to let you eat it only for yourself. AND FORBIDS SHARING WITH OTHER PEOPLE. This is stipulated in the bread agreement, didn’t you read it?
I’m not sure if you’re still talking about not being able to play on official servers or you’re talking about Bazaar content being different from DLCs because it doesn’t allow sharing between players.
If it’s about sharing Bazaar content between players, then I agree with you. That’s greedy, and it sucks, and we shouldn’t support companies who do that. You’re still legally not entitled to a refund, but there’s at least a reason to complain that they didn’t do enough to inform people about the limitations and to push for better legislation.
If it’s about the official servers, then you’re wrong. Even if you can’t play on official servers, you can still play online. But again, that doesn’t matter. You don’t buy this stuff to use it online. You buy it to use it with the game.
This is a real violation of consumer rights, you buy a product in advance with cut-down functions that make the purchase useless. No one can explain the construction rules. The administration has launched a chain reaction, now everyone is throwing complaints at each other. No one knows exactly who threw the complaint, so they throw it at everyone, and on pvp servers any heavily fortified base is subject to destruction
Again, if you’re talking about not having access to official servers, it’s not a violation of consumer rights in any sense. You can keep calling it that if it will make you feel better, but you’re wrong, both legally and ethically.
Official servers are a service provided to you by Funcom, and they don’t charge you for it. They control those servers and have the final word on who plays on them. If I decide to host my own Conan Exiles server and not charge you for it, I will have the same right and same control.
There are rules that govern how you are allowed to play on official servers. Those rules aren’t being enforced in a clear and transparent way, but the fact remains that you have no consumer rights of access to those servers.
You are not a consumer on those servers. Legally, you are a user, but not a consumer. Morally and ethically, you are a guest.
You are a consumer of Bazaar. The Bazaar is not limited to official servers. It is not a violation of your consumer rights to be denied access to official servers. Your purchases from the Bazaar can be used as long as you can play the game, regardless of your access to any servers, whether official or not. If I host a private server and then ban you from it, you don’t get a refund on Bazaar.
Your inability to comprehend or accept these facts will not change them.
Which, as we all know, is ineffective when dealing with people who can’t understand the difference between the game and one particular group of servers.
Yeah, the game advertises that you can build anywhere and as you want. And I can go into single-player mode and do just that. Or I can host a private server that allows that.
Don’t take me wrong, it absolutely sucks that the official servers are such garbage that they start shіtting the bed with only 20 out of 40 players online. But even if the servers were top of the line, you would still get some asshat who thought it would be fun to wall in a player or wall off one of the dungeons, and they would get banned for it, and then come here to whine about false advertising and demand refunds.
The character actually studied the recipes of siptah
I was asked to make gloves, but I could do them without joining the clan, I was also asked to install 2 stoves, I installed them and immediately left the clan after 2 days, permanent ban. THIS IS TRUE!!!
The single player game is not playable at all. There is no PvP. If I knew that for construction they deprive the right to play, I would not have made purchases in the game.
Nah, mate. I work as a programmer, if you really wanna know.
Not that it matters. No one at Funcom will give a damn about what I do for living, just like no one gives a damn that you don’t understand the difference between consumer rights and your own preferences.
See, here’s the thing: I’m on your side when it comes to the server rules. I want the server rules to be enforced in such a way that they protect us from griefers, instead of being weaponized by other players.
But the server rules have nothing to do with the Bazaar, and likewise the Bazaar has nothing to do with the official servers. By insisting on the contrary, you’re undermining support for your own grievances, because nobody takes seriously someone who behaves like a child.
There are no clear rules for construction, for example, a maximum of 10,000 blocks of a solid base without a gap, a ban on construction on a dam. All blocking occurs at the whim of the administration. There is such a player Angel, he wrote that he has connections with the administration. We fought against him and we were blocked, perhaps it is just a coincidence
I just want to see an example of an ideal protected base with all the machines on which 185 satellites are located. Which definitely won’t be blocked!!!
There is just no logical reasoning behind that what so ever.
