Official Forums Aren't Official Afterall | Forums

Quoted from a BBB complaint ticket and this is part of UBI's response:

How does that make the paid UBI employees on these forums feel? Guess you are not official employees.

Then again, I already knew that as Ubi always have stated that the forums are for the community, especially the technical forums. Ubi has never posted in them unlike other publishers in their forums. Another grand way Ubi shows that they only want your money.

They always try to escape by every possible means.

They have been doing this for years with the so-called support service; forum managers say ''open a ticket with Jason'', and Jason says ''this part of the game is not supported, so create a post in the official forum''.

This is a classic among huge fraudulent corporations.

The next step for Ubisoft is to tell the BBB that all its games are not official. All problems solved in one shot, LOL. /sarcasm

They truly laugh in everyone's face!

Hey Athenian

In terms of official support and assistance with game issues no the forums are not the place to come. Any issues with this or other Ubisoft games should go through support and yes that is the official point of contact for issues. The forums allow the community to help each other in ways that tech support do not/cannot and allow people like myself to see how everyone feels about the games and why and make sure that feedback gets back to who matters.

So.... no they are not the official point of contact for issues but yes they are official forums and we do officially use them to source information from the community.

All of that said however there are problems such as xoops mentions above where we advise members to file a ticket and support send them back to the forums and the circle continues. This isn't a satisfactory situation and is one we're aware of from feedback on the forums.

Ms K,

So then what would you suggest we do? If UBI Support is unwilling to help us and these forums don't really have a purpose at this point, what other options do we have? Or does UBI just expect us to go away and go buy Far Cry 2?

Who's responsibility is it to fix (within reason) Vegas 2, a game that is broken and does not work as advertised? I have tried using the "official" way, through UBI Support, and the "non-official" way, through these forums. Who must I contact and how, because I (along with many others) have tried both methods to get help and yet we are still waiting for even a response much less a patch to fix this broken game. You have no idea how frustrated we are with UBI. This same exact disappearing act by UBI (your employer) happened with Lockdown, Vegas 1 and Vegas 2. That means I have spent $150 on 3 games that never worked properly.

As a consumer I believe you've already done what you can in reporting issues both here and via Tech Support, everyone's feedback has been sent back and we are awaiting news on whether more action can/will be taken to address issues but beyond that there is little we can do. You've done your part in reporting it, now it's down to Ubisoft

[athenian]

Sorry but I have little, if any, faith in UBI at the moment. I think we have waited long enough for at least a response on the critical issues this game still has. It really starts with the dedicated server being bugged, if it were to be fixed and stable I believe alot of the other problems would be minimized.

My biggest problems with Vegas 2 are:

1.) Dedicated Server and not keeping server settings
2.) Players sticking to each other like they have velcro suits on.
3.) Sound - numerous sound bugs (randomly missing sounds, infinite gunfire loop), the inconsistent directional sound and lack of enemy footsteps. I hear my own footsteps as if I am a clydesdale.

The processes for contacting ANYONE of importance in Ubisoft are intentionally redundant just so they don't have to deal with their mistakes.
