Returning Player, why should I sub to AoC?

I love this game. I recently started leveling a new character after a long break from the game. Why is there so little communicaton with the playerbase from Funcom? I would gladly sub to the game again and support Funcom, but why should I if my money doesnt go back into the game? Why should I pay a monthly sub to fund a company that will use this money on other projects? There are so much Funcom could do with little resourses with this game. I am not asking for huge updates like we used to have back in the day, but if I knew Funcom had any plans for the game at all, even minor ones I would gladly sub again. I find that hard knowing that there is no plans going forward and absolutly no comunication between Funcom and the players.

You’ve already answered your own question.

I honestly do not recommend giving Funcom money in general for any of their games.

I also don’t want to pay them anything when they treat players without respect and without interest.
But their mad f2p system limits me in everything. I can’t buy anything in the game due to the absurd limit of 10g

I don’t see sub as crucial to the game. Not with the terrible constant problems with billing and support.

I think it’s a good investment to get the xpacks, sometimes available on Steam for deep discount.

You can find a guildmate or trustworthy person to buy unbound gear above 10g. I remember talk when the gold cap was 2 g for FTP.

I would sub if I felt I could do so without a hassle, or if you could buy a sub with funcom points from the store. Truthfully, I haven’t bought funcom points in a while, I assume that still works ok, but not sure.

I’ll play until the lights go out, but I also have other games that occupy my time.

Do you guys use PayPal or credit card to buy subs/points?
I just returned and read about the many problems with billing.

I bought 2 subs and lots of points with a credit card payment and it all worked fine.

I use paypal and don’t have issues as long as I delete previous payment option and create a new one for each payment.

do not give this company another ruble

Do not sub to this game, do not give this company any of your money. If you are enjoying the game enough and the gold cap is a blocker, hoard all your relics, sub for one month (pray to set you don’t get payment problems like so many other people) and get all your gear in one swoop.

I am a proud subscriber. When I come from real Life and log on AoC makes my Life much easier to be Carred on.

This Game and Funcom needs to realize this is their BEST option to go back to the top (AA’S progression, factions, priests that heal meanwhile hit, thanks healing meanwhile tanking…) The most elegant characters out there and the BEST Game I’ve ever plaied.

I won’t leave again!

It’s no problem… everything is fine… just write a support ticket and you may get eventually an answer in one and half year… I mean it’s your money right, they need to at least return it otherwise they would be scammers…

I wrote a ticket 5 days ago. Twice. and posted here on forums, mentioned andyB in it. Still no reaction. Its not normal
