WOW. You mean if generals got 1 gold more than Assassins it would break the game so bad? I didn't realize that the integrity of the game was so fragile. I love how some people, with no game design experience whatsoever, are so certain in their knowledge. I guess it's a good thing I don't design games, I'm sure they'd all tank. I got to love childish CEOs

I doubt there will be a demo until serveral months after. They need to make sales after all.
Well, it's a pre-order and you don't have the final software so I don't think it's "uber nice" to offer a refund. Go to GameStop, preorder and cancel. You get your money back. I've worked with other companies that give full refunds even if you're in beta. Oh well, I'm sure the close hammer will hit this one too. Sorry you didn't search before you bought, it's an issue with most of their releases.
You lose like 15%, I did that during beta 1 and got slapped with like 20 bucks less then I paid due to ordering the CE. They consider the beta the finished product. It's bs and the rules don't really state it, but I think they amended it lately to be more clear. There was a huge post on this awhile back.
Actually Frog messaged me a question and never responded neither did customer service? I've been waiting quietly and politely writing frog a few times a month to ask for an answer. But you're right who cares, guess the for the gamer shit was a total lie, ignore problems more like kids. I like Kyro, he was helpful, but you were the only one. And it really was just shut down and ignored. Not only that but they amended the order site so obviously it was an issue with more than just us.
I think I deserve to play Beta until it releases. I'd message CS again about this but you decide not to write back constantly. Even Frog wrote me and never wrote back :-\

College freshman and sophmore years are basically reviews from high school. I'd gladly have gone to college after sophmore year. And going to private school just made college more annoying. Edit : @ Kyro : I really don't understand where this everyone is equal in all ways is coming from in America. Sad news to all the leeches, YOU'RE NOT EQUAL TO SOMEONE WHO WORKS HARDER. Equality means if you put in the same amount of effort you get the same result. Not lazy peop
EA has been buying more lately, and they're not going to just get taken over. They are a brand name and a corner stone of the industry. I don't see them rolling over. That said I don't like them all that much.
At this point keep my money, I don't even care anymore, no one is handling this correctly. As for someone who has worked in customer service for a long time, yours is poor. Your stance was unclear and not shown to others correctly. I've uninstalled Impulse and just gave up. This has been obscene and taken too long. To leave a bad taste in people's mouths for just 25% is sad. I love RTS and hoped SD was going to show a bright future, now I'll never bother with them again.
[quote who="xXAequitasXx" reply="16" id="1905576"] Again, the beta didn't cost you anything. The full game did. You agreed to purchase the product IN ADVANCE. You did NOT purchase the Beta, the Beta was a side "benefit" (to use the word loosely) to commiting to the purchase of Demigods [Full Game]. If you were unsure in any way, shape, or form about the purchase of said product, you should NOT have made the purchase until either you had the chance to try the ga
No, a lot of you are being rude and ignorant in this thread. No I don't need a banner, but you should have it known. Sorry, but the beta shouldn't cost me 25% on $60.00. Sorry, but if you do things a lot different than other companies just let us know. And it's not logical thinking.
Case and point this was not clearly stated and as a new customer I'm very disappointed. Yes, I downloaded the beta, played it for a day or so, posted the most bugs then stopped. But the whole point to this thread is Stardock did NOT make it clear that you could not cancel pre order because the product you bought was beta software. Also you say if you read through the other forums you would find this out, I shouldn't have to search through thousands of posts to find out about a companies uniqu
I guess you don't understand what a TON of other companies do, and READ what it says; limited time offer. A pre-order traditionally is just to make sure you get the game. Like say you didn't pre order WoW : WotLK CE guess what you don't get it. I'm really sick of fanboy answers, in all honestly it wasn't presented properly.
It's overly generous to give a 75% refund after launch, but for 75% on a cancelled pre order isn't. But agreed this isn't going anywhere and Stardock is already very aware of the thread.
Stardock doesn't say you are buying beta software. It says you are download and / or retail box for Demigod. The beta is shown as a limited time offer and not presented as what you are buying. All in all Stardock is wrong from what I can see and read. Fanboys aside if this was Gamestop people would be flipping out. Not to mention since only a few people are effected by this and feel so strongly about it, it's just good customer service at this point to end this. It's obvious for new customers
Oh yeah, people pulling their 401ks and investments are short sighted. The market will recover, well all just need to calmdown. The bailout was supposed to give people hope but people keep pulling.
Very well said, and I agree.
This will all change with the new bill to get electric cars on the road. Read about the bailout and it's tag on for electric cars. Also the Telsa is a huge step backwards. In the 90s they had SUVs that went further than that per charge. Edit : Also cars in Europe are more efficient due to the fact they don't buy SUVs and other stupidly large cars.
Does everyone out there realize the media is driving this stock market failure? People need to realize that selling off everything is making this a lot worse. The news is a horrible thing lately. They show only the bad, case and point the Dow goes up but Yahoo News still just talks about it's poor opening. Talk to anyone who knows, don't sell and calm down. The whole world is doing poorly, and the people freaking out due to the media being idiotic is making it so much worse. <!-- ORI
I'll be totally honest, if this was an agreement we signed when we got the game or at least made obvious it wouldn't be a big deal. It wasn't, I had no idea this was different and you need to make things like this known. Stardock can go against the mold, but people need to be told how it works.
Well you also need to make this much more clear when you purchuse the item. It said it was limited beta test NOT that you are buying beta software like your refund policy states. The way the policy is worded it says you are paying for the beta software not the game. I really think you need a lot more clarity or the more you use this model the more problems will arise. Also this request comes within the 90 days. And yes I did have hopes to play through the beta and give
Sorry, but you're generalizing. You are saying I want to cancel because I just wanted a demo? No, not at all. I actually just needed the money back. The people who want refunds now deserve it for just what you said, they had faith and wanted to help Stardock out with providing money to finish the game before it's out. Also this is such an early stage it is more alpha then beta. If we had all the Demigods, were getting updates at more than a snail's pace, and had all the maps and options we do
The game is NOT released, the item we have recieved is NOT complete. To not be able to cancel and get a full refund for a game that isn't out yet is wrong. We preordered a game, not a beta. When you preorder in stores they give you rave cards and what not but you are still able to cancel. And other games that have done this allow for refunds. I mean we can sit here and argue all day, but in all reality you should get all your money back. I helped run a small franchise, the credit card fees su
