Yeah. I know. That was my own thread you quoted from.
Can we at least get a blue answer on the time frame existing accounts are eligible for the new RAF? Surely this much of the system has been decided upon this late into development and it seems there are several of us in this thread alone with people waiting to sub, personally had just got a new laptop as well for it. Its just lost money for blizz and frustration for us with the current situation when surely there is at least this much info available and could be shared with the community. If not then it should not have been listed as launching with this patch.
That information is not yet available. Perl provided a link a few posts back with their own guesstimate, but either nothing is concrete yet or the information has not been passed on to this department as yet.
It probably will get an updated support article also when the information is ready to go public.
What about for people (like me) that have recruited a friend now and going to miss out on both the old and new reward?
I canāt imagine that there are any contingencies in place for players that jumped the gun, as unfortunate as it is.
There is still no official word that Iāve seen as yet, but only then will we know for sure.
Yeah it sucks. Iāve been trying to convince my friend to NOT play WOW which Iām sure blizzard wouldnāt want me to do and in fact I donāt want to do.
My question isā¦ if I gift the game/time to my friend through bnet, if they havenāt claimed it, can they still qualify for RAF?
As long as itās not claimed, I believe so.
Iāll second that the wording of the promotion seemingly confirms that, yes.
Is this still realā¦ I mean how the hell is WOW baiting players like this and still in business. you put it in the patch notes itās in the patch month later oh we didnāt mean itā¦
Along with the anniversary stuffā¦which also isnāt live yet. Itās okay to include details on whatās in the patch without having it all go live right away.
As has already been mentioned in the thread, keep an eye on the main page/news as thatās where it will likely be announced once it returns.
We also included in the patch notes that certain features would be activating at a later time.
We regularly announce things in blogs that are coming with a patch that do not start the same day a patch is released. Iām sorry if this caught you off guard though.
yes yes coming soon ā¢
but itās not soon ā¢
Ummm, yeah it is.
I think this topic has remained open long enough. The information contained within will still be available and searchable if anyone has any questions about the availability of the Recruit a Friend program, but I see no benefit of leaving the topic open.
Thanks all!
