Gamestop Returns

[Hironoga27]

gamestop will take returns on games within the first week don't let the clerks lie to you so they do not have returns on their record the corporate policy is within 7 days they even have an option to put in that it was returned because you didn't like the game itself

I work at Gamestop 7 day return on pre owned games ONLY If new games have been open we can not return it.

Dude seriously a lot of "mmo experts" on here are full of crap. I've been playing mmo's since EQ launch. I know what to expect, but console gaming is suppose to be different. You sacrifice the HQ graphics for ease of use. You are suppose to be able to pop in a disc and go. No configuring and updates are really small and quick.

Please remember this when looking at people's responses in the Xbox section. They are not use to putting up with PC game hassles. Every response that we are seeing if you understand console and PC gaming at all is to be expected. Trion gets a pass from me for trying something new, but we are all different and I don't expect everyone to agree.

The sad part is that as consumers these people are correct and they are being told "it's the norm". The Internet and the we'll patch things after release mentality is killing gaming.

If you can explain a way to test the servers max population before launch, please by all means inform Trion. Until then, it's widely regarded the first couple days to a week are filled with downtime because it's the true stress test of the servers. The Beta population wasn't large enough for a proper stress test, it usually never is by any company. So, yes it is the norm. I bet by next tuesday there won't be any downtime besides a weekly scheduled maintenance. (Like every other MMO in freaking existence)

Woah good sir i work for gamestop and if you dont bilieve look at your riciept for the return policies. The return policy for new games is if it unopened and still sealed with the riciept we can do a full refund within a monthif it is opened you can trade it in for a lesser value or swap it out for the exact same game in cases where the disc is defective. a USED Game can be returned within 7 days for a full refund with the riciept.

I wonder if it was a full out free beta to all on xbox advertised on the dashboard if that could have helped test it.

Most likely, that way, way more people would have logged on. Also, the Beta had a lot of servers, which was a mistake imo. Lots of servers + Small pop = bad stress test.

edit: ****, lion's autocorrect is annoying.

You are preaching to the choir my friend, but like I said in my post......don't expect everyone to understand that and don't attack them for their opinions.

It would have been smart for that to happen as it would also raise awareness.

Rofl @ people talking about those on consoles not having patience. Last time I checked, CoD releases in a poor state everytime. Yet, people don't rush to abandon it a day after release. Fact is, unlike CoD, Defiance just doesn't do anything extremely well. It's a supposed "MMO" with loot not even turned on. Don't blame the community, blame the devs for their incompetence.
