This is why you don't pay extra to play early, and you don't preorder Ubisoft games ever.
If you haven't figured that out yet, that's on you.
I agree that it's a bad idea to preorder or pay extra, especially with Ubisoft. However, following that logic they are basically preying on people new to the hobby, which sucks and deserves to be called out.
1: holy shit that title is a.... It's something, alright.
B- if you spend extra money on top of normal costs on a game that's still not even released, you get what you fucking deserve.
Hate to be that guy, but well deserved for buying into this late stage capitalism shit, sorry!
I'm not sorry at all!
They get what they fucking deserve. Hell, I wish everyone who bought into that crap not only lost the save, but also lost access to it for minimum a week.
can I offer you a egg trinket and some Ubisoft credits in this trying time?
There's a reason I no longer play Ubisoft games, even the ones I own.
This instance isn't it. I stopped when the big sexual exploitation and harassment ring was reported and became news.
But when shit like this happens, it reminds me that I should have no regrets, even when I miss a specific moment in a game.
Sorry Ubi, you're just too toxic for me.
I’m still surprised they couldn’t (or decided not to put the necessary effort to) get the save games fixed. Telling your players to start over is brutal.
I am glad Ubisoft took a dump on these people for subsidizing their trash business practices. Maybe they will finally learn.
Any day now
It's a Ubisoft game, what can you expect but absolute shit?
Well at least they paid significantly less because they knew they were buying an inferior product 🤔
Welcome to neocapitalism
Same shit different paint
Late-stage capitalism, not "neocapitalism".
There is nothing new, unexpected, or unique about late-stage capitalism. It's just greedy fucks thinking they're the smart ones.
Reminds me of the people that paid to play early Suicide Squad and Payday 3, and in both cases the servers weren't working day 1, or in the latter's case not even day 6.
Also this is so bad even giving nothing besides the apology would be better than some trinket.
Remember when TF2 went free to play and everyone who paid for it just got the shittiest hat imaginable (Proof of Purchase)?
That was 4 years after the release date, tho. And the original price was 20$ not 110$. And it had been on sale for as low as 2.5$ before going f2p.
I thought they also got expanded backpack space.
The comments regarding this are really disappointing. People hate Ubisoft so much, for fucking customers over, that they are glad that customers are being fucked. What is wrong with you lot? People look forward to things, they side with optimism over pessimism, but fuck them right! What a bunch of angry and frustrated arseholes a lot of you seem to be.
Breaking News!!! Man repeatedly gets diarrhea from street vendor; "Maybe this time will be different". Street vendor says, "he just keeps buying it so I just keep making it".
People like to be elitist
I don't understand the vitriol either. Must be a lemmy thing ( see every thread about microsoft doing something shitty and people going "you deserve it if you use windows/don't use linux" ). Even the reddit threads related to this issue aren't this bad, they're mostly friendly and helpful towards the guys that got grifted.
