Diablo 3 to sell the stock of the consequences: receipt of Azeroth 'apology'
mxace reports / May 15, Diablo 3 Global Offering, flocked into Asia, the United States, EU, while in a large number of mainland players, there are a considerable number, we think the continent players to seize the initiative, come to grief shot.World of Warcraft (ngacn.cc) is the most popular domestic Blizzard fans nest site game media 178.com income previously given them. The site had previously opened up ahead of \"Diablo 3\" pre-sale, and quickly reached the predetermined amount of 10,000 and 10,000 players a successful payment, but Diablo 3 quickly sold out of stock, the occurrence of the inability to deliver goods after the game is officially released embarrassing incidents that hurt ~Yesterday, players Baidu Diablo 3, said today Azeroth and 178 out of oolong tragedy, media exposure today Azeroth website, simply cause and effect described in detail again , to pre-order players anxiously waiting for an explanation.The following text is taken from the World of Warcraft website.Original address: http://bbs.ngacn.cc/read.php?tid=5156284Apology on Diablo 3-key - cause and effect - and the subsequent processingFirst of all, in the 178 mall scheduled Diablo 3, but not in time to get the key users to apologize, so that you can not play the game the first time, dereliction of duty.After two days to understand, I tell everyone I know.To Taiwan in April, the company booked a number of key used for testing and co-workers to play, and then continue to colleagues friends, separate ways users want to get the key from the first time in this channel, so in charge of store colleagues in the shop. 178.com hung up the link, there is a need to buy. The cost will be around the cost of +30, which is the Mall of the profits. Electronic key, played the game the students should all be aware, the electronic key game companies can create unlimited, while the goal of the game are the players the better, so there is no thought of out of stock. So did not write in the mall set inside the inventory, that is, unlimited scheduled. This is a serious mistake, because in fact the person in charge of the Mall do not think that more than 1000 sets. Because the continent's future will soon have the Simplified Chinese version.5 last week, less than about 1000 Order, are basically employees and forum users. But by the weekend, the duty colleagues suddenly found to reach 10000 sets the subscription learned of this situation, the Mall of the person in charge of emergency Youxiang upstream prepayment subscribed to 10,000 units, and closed the site to buy. (In mall history page can be found) As for ordering agreement, as the continent's biggest gaming media, how may set a game client and KEY get it working? We are not Taobao seller, all the students did not confirm the goods on sale, should not understand the relationships and mechanisms of online gaming companies and the media. KEY open service began on the line, so can only be confirmed rather than \"get our hands on\"Before opening the service, the entity client first batch ordered from Taiwan shipped to Hong Kong opened, the scan key to the company, several colleagues overnight processing and shipping. Then was told that Taiwan's key. Taiwan's key is to sell Taiwan Blizzard Blizzard Technical, instead of the Chi where Di own printed. We should all understand that our channels to purchase is not Blizzard.The shortage of virtual electronic key, which is unthinkable in today's Internet age, the answer is hungry market, the more people get to have the greater voice. In fact, because a higher proxy price to NetEase, the Blizzard, NetEase can not accept, so the continent Simplified Chinese version of the power of attorney so far undetermined. The mainland players hungry to play clothes, and perhaps also a strategy.In any case, the result is yesterday, 178 Mall unable to pay the goods. Of course, is where Di, Chi, Taiwan yesterday, no key. Taobao prices reached 900. So many players to speculate is not 178 players to collect advance payments go order to Taobao to sell.In this regard, I want to say isThree days ago, ordering payment of buyer about 1,000 people within three days to 10,000, while the order a week ago, the time difference does not allow, say 10 000 sets of orders are not 3 million, the company paid this money is not a problem, As for the interest, three million one week of current interest is less than 1000 yuan, pick up the calculator should be aware that this is a conspiracy theory.2178 key, all shipped in accordance with the order time, and not resold to other channels, this afternoon, Chaoyang Industry and Commerce Bureau to forensics had the afternoon to the company's Beijing friends can attest.After an investigation, in recent days under the single buyer, a lot of Taobao sellers, their interests did suffer great damage, could have changed hands to get from 178 to earn 500, because 178 is not available, lost money the opportunity, I would like to say that yes, indeed you have the right to purchase, but this loss will not be compensated, Taobao businesses as possible to take legal action. Because of your existence, has been the matter worse. The complaints of the users play games, we humbly accept and deal with the, Taobao reselling malicious trouble, we will no longer respond.The above is what happened, users can control their own logic to determine authenticity.Follow-up treatmentA morning mall colleagues found that mycard can buy have been bought shipped, but soon mycard hung up.2 from other sources we get a new batch of key arrival in the evening, still in accordance with the order of deliveryApply for a refund of the students, we have a full refund. However, because the refund can only financial personnel to operate, so the speed of refund in the case of overtime a day, can only handle about 1,000 people.4 compensation approach is still under discussion, initially laid down that students will each refund the compensation of not less than the goods of people RMB 100. No refunds for students compensation of not less than 50 commodities. This does not compensate for the loss of your spirit, just to express our apologies.5 Collector's Edition: Hungry marketing, this thing is not controllable, and here I take the initiative to want to order the students to apply for a refund. We will retain your records, subscriptions before we get the Collector's Edition will contact students whether or not to continue to buy. Collector's Edition of the compensation plan is still under negotiation.Off-topic:This post involves sensitive content and information, so it is estimated that public relations will soon be deleted the last paragraph.To borrowed Chamber to express my attitudeAny replies to observe the rules are ok
