I am literally in shock and awe over the asinine nature of your post. I tip my hat to you for the sheer stubborn lack of understanding of how games run, problems that arise, and ignorance of IMC’s efforts to try and rectify the situation.
They are not a perfect company, but they are doing far more than many established publishers have to respond to their community.
I seriously am stunned by the entitlement radiating from this post.
I am sympathetic, don’t get me wrong. The game isn’t playable at all for not just a few, but many players. The problem arising from IMC trying to give you guys the localized servers that players whined for to the point of actually breaking the forums.
So–you’re wanting to punish IMC for listening to you guys. Not because they aren’t trying to fix it, but because ■■■■ happened?
I’m 100% done with these forums for today. I’m disgusted.
So you want to move a law class action against IMC because you bought a pack with some virtual items was delivered?
Hmm…
And you will do that because your family runs the largest firm in your country?
It sounds stupidty.
Looks like a child who bought a lolipop. After some time he dropped his lolipop on the ground and now is crying about move a law class action against the lolipop vendor.
Dude the best part is this [quote=“diss.sebastian, post:30, topic:277388”]
The only compensation I want is being able to play the game in my region (SA)
[/quote]
So he wants to sue them for his money back because he can’t play and yet he wants as compensation to have a stable server for SA…WHERE IS THE LOGIC IN THAT LOL.
If so why the hell their family would even care about a kid who wasted a couple of hundred dollars on a video game.Don’t your family has bigger and more important clients in the firm where they would get paid WAY more than helping you.
Well EULA doesn’t mean nothing. U were agreed to it means within the fair and clean court, u are already lose. More so that someone already mentioned about point 6 from their EULA, if IMC can prove that the cause is DDoS means they are not at fault. The fact that they are working on it shows that they have no intention to scam anyone.
The one that u bought is DLC, it’s not mandatory to use their service. U can use their service for free means u should be able to test their service first. The issue regarding SA Server had been around for a while means that it’s ur own fault for not testing it first. They, on other hand, already delivered what u bought.
U should show which law from ur country that say it’s plain scam. It should be in complete form.
From those points above, i don’t see any that can go against them.
Any professional lawyers won’t go against what they already sign unless they know it will go thru corrupted and unfair court process in which they can pay and manipulate the results.
The most u can get is refund from Steam, and only that.
Sorry but it doesnt work that way, the game is FREE, you didnt pay for it, you paid for DLCs which are entirely optional for players, DLCs are goodies IN the FREE game, which wheter you choose to buy it or not, you can still play for FREE, if you CANT play the FREE game for whatever reason, that means you cant and thats it, since you didnt pay for anything anyways, you are “FREE” to stop playing it.
Also yea, they made it NOT REFUNDABLE, you paid knowing that
On the other hand, IMC seems to be doing just fine right now, they’re addressing all mentioned issues and I’m glad to be able to play again in SA server.
Your family runs the largest firm in the country, yet somehow you feel it is necessary to ask online to double check if it’s justified to file a suit? Your idiocy should amaze you more than Americans do.
It’s not that SA players will never be satisfied. Silute server was unplayable some weeks ago, many players (me included) couldn’t even go past the character creation screen. Don’t judge players without knowing the situation.
Not a reason to justify a law class action, though…
The moment I read that, I knew OP was baiting hard af. If my family ran the largest law firm in the country and even had hands in the government, I wouldn’t be playing with video games; I’d be playing with peoples lives.
…
Okay I wouldn’t, but I certainly wouldn’t be complaining about a game service.

I’m not judging in the slightest. The server being the mess that it was isn’t your fault. But it can be traced back when you guys demanded for your own server and free transfers. You guys wouldn’t be in that situation if you guys never asked for your own server.
I don’t need to be in the same boat as you guys to know how bad your situation is. If I were, I’d probably get mad at first, then shut up because I asked for it.
It really doesnt matter what your law statement is on internet services, as e.g a DDoS is 3rd party action and can not cover up for a warrant action against the service provider. On the other side if servers were downright not powerful enough this would be at companies own fault.
I do not think you have any basis for your case. Reason:
You did not pay for access to the game, you only paid for the DLCs, aka the items.
You probably recieved the items, which means they fulfilled their part of the deal when you paid them money for the DLC.
When buying the DLC items you are only guaranteed that the items are available on your account, which probably is true.
Buying DLC does not mean you paid for good server services, though.
You did not pay for server access, you paid for virtual items to be delivered to your account.
That has been fulfilled, you did not pay for server availability.
To give you an analogy :
When buying food you pay for the food, aka the items. However you do not pay for a guarantee that you actually like what you’re buying.
You can’t, for example, buy lasagna and then aftewards complain and sue them because you don’t like lasagna.
Just like that you pay for virtual items, however you do not pay for server accessibility.
If there was a subscription option with a direct real money<->game time exchange or a initial game cost with a guarantee that the servers are always accessible then you’d have a right to complain or even sue.
However since all you pay for is virtual currency (TP) or virtual items (DLC items), which are no doubt delivered to your account you don’t really have any case for sueing them, since they delivered everything you paid money for.
If your family truly runs the largest law firm in the country, why are you asking on the forums if you have any chance of success when sueing them?
Why not ask your daddy or mommy or whoever is in charge of said law firm? I’m pretty sure, if you’re telling the truth, they could help you alot better in this case than people on the forums here.
And how is sueing them solving the server problems? It’s so short-sighted.
If you win you cost them alot of money and time. Good job, now they’ll have even less money/time to solve the server problems.
You may try sueing them if you want. However i don’t think IMC likes people sueing them. After trying to sue them, regardless of the outcome, IMC will probably immediately terminate your account, because, as usual with online games, they have the right to terminate your account for any reason and without any explanation. So if you’re successful with sueing them you probably won’t be able to play the game anymore at all.
Also, you can’t sue them just because the servers are slow because they’re getting DDoSed.
That’d be like sueing a bank for getting robbed by gangsters while you were at the bank.
Or sueing a power company for power outages caused by a tornado.
Do you think the bank chose to get robbed? Do you think the power company wanted that tornado there? Do you think IMC wants DDoS attacks to happen? It’s an external force that can not really be prevented and thus it’s not their fault that it’s happening.
I’ve asked refund from 3 DLC’s pack i did not have used ATM… But where is IMC to answer and send my money back?!
I’m in mind that IMC will answer me in a month with an automated message (like always) and won’t give my money…
I’m really tired of this company… Thought I’ve passed all the worst with Level Up! but IMC is showing us another level of failure, incompetence and everything that is bad. :S
