sheesh

 

I get the exact same error message. It staggers me that a company which obviously contains numerous employees with large amounts of technical expertise can't organize something as simple as a straightforward e-commerce transaction. icon_rolleyes.gif

 

Distributing games directly over the net should be a win-win situation for developers and users. The developers don't have to share the profits with retailers and publishers so they should be able to charge considerably less than the game would have cost in a shop AND still make more from each copy they sell. Unfortunately at $35 for an expansion pack ED seem to have decided not to pass any of the savings onto the users. (In fact, by the time you factor in the cost of having to print your own manual you're probably paying more than you would for a typical store-bought expansion pack).

 

I was prepared to overlook this however as I'd enjoyed playing the FC demo and wanted to support one of the very few developers of good flight sims. I was even prepared to overcome my reservations about the odious "Star Force" protection s/w despite having read some pretty horrendous stuff about it. (I'm sure I'm not the only one who regards the limit of 5 reinstalls or "system modifications" as pretty outrageous - in the last couple of years I've completely rebuilt my PC once, reformatted at least 3 times, replaced my main hard drive and upgraded several other components, presumably meaning that if I'd bought FC 2 years ago then I'd no longer be allowed to play the game by now).

 

And now I find out that the payment processing system doesn't even work - it's as if ED are deliberately trying to shoot themselves in the foot. They seem to have gone out of their way to deter potential customers. icon_rolleyes.gif

I don't want that? I don't care, it isn't my company. What I don't like it people who blame the wrong people. I want my copy of the game, but I'm willing to wait until they sort out the problem. I think I can keep busy for a few more days without a problem, heh.

Except that the problem is with paypal, not ED. Nice attempt to pass the blame though. We don't expect anything logical out of you anyways.

 

Stupid question: How do you know that it is a problem with Paypal, though the error comes from Paypal, it could still be ED having a problem with their account. Just a guess of course

Sigh...

 

The problem is on Paypal's server, it is on their end. Whether or not it is an account issue it is run by Paypal and any issues are issues Paypal has brought up. That's my point. Just drop it. We'll wait and see what the response is next working day.
