Xbox Kickstarters

[Mike Reitmeyer]

From our Facebook:

Due to the length of the delays on the Xbox 360, we are offering to switch kickstarter backer platforms to any other platform we support. If the base game is needed to play (for example the PS3), we will be happy to provide a means to getting the base game free-of-charge. We are continuing to work with the bankrupcy court to get the legal issues with our 360 publisher sorted out, and we remain confident we will be able to release all of the new tables on the 360 soon. Please contact us at PinballArcadeStarTrekCodes@gmail.com if you'd like to switch platforms.
And thank you for supporting us!

while i appreciate the offer i'll wait for the 360 versions...kudos for the info though...d.m.

 

[malignance]

well, that's kind of discouraging news. if they were anywhere near getting these tables out to the 360, would they bother making this offer?

 

[Worf]

Well, it could be because people have been patient - we're talking close to what, 3-4 months now? If you're getting restless, then maybe it's time. Because it's going to be a long haul - the courts aren't exactly fast movers. Heck, it could be another 6 months before the courts even HEAR of FarSight's petition, and 2014 before the courts free up the contract.

Of course, it could also all end up resolved tomorrow. But in the meantime - if you're getting frustrated on the delay, it's a reasonable offer.

that was my thought too

Has anyone actually received their code for this yet? I sent my e-mail asking to be switched to the PS3 version 6 days ago and have received no response...

 

[Brym]

It's now been 2 weeks, and I still haven't received a response despite sending multiple follow-up emails. What gives? Does anyone know of another way to contact FarSight?

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

knock on thier door!

 

[Worf]

Try sending a PM?

 

[Mike Reitmeyer]

Our email server went down last week which caused some problems with getting support email. If you PM me the details you sent to support I'll make sure the correct person gets it.

Ps4?

 

[Brym]

I don't mean to seem ungrateful, but I think I'm done here. I've been a pretty loyal fan to this point. I bought the Williams Collection for Wii. I re-bought it for Xbox 360 when it came out. I bought The Pinball Arcade the week it was released on XBLA. I bought every piece of DLC that has been released for the 360. I Kickstarted the Star Trek table. And I'm sitting here waiting to drop another $100 on DLC for my PS3 version, if Farsight would just send me the code for the base game as promised in this thread. But they can't even seem to respond to my e-mails within 3 weeks. Why am I continuing to support this company?

I appreciate the work you're doing, but it's time for me to move on. Enjoy my money for the Star Trek table that I'll apparently never receive.

 

[Brym]

Here for my weekly check-in. Although someone PM'd me a PS3 Star Trek code, I still haven't received "a means to getting the base game free-of-charge" as Mike promised above. So my Star Trek code is useless. It's now been 4 weeks since I first e-mailed Far Sight.

 

[DopedToInfinity]

After emailing to change both kickstarters from 360 to Vita I recieved my codes after 3 - 4 days. Well done! I was on the fence about supporting future kickstarters, but after excellent and timely service I'm in!

Thanks Rosa

I planned to stick with xbox, but I'm gonna go for the ps4 with it's cheaper price tag, the fact I own a vita now, no intrusion to privacy, no draconian DRM, easier access for indie developers, self publishing allowed, etc.

 

[Daniel Osborne]

not heard anything back yet.

 

[Mike Reitmeyer]

not heard anything back yet.

The PR staff has all been at E3 this week. You should hear something after they get back.

 

[dave950lam]

Mike, I hope you will get TPA some mentions at E3..... With all of this Halo, Bioshock, Fallen, and other crap, it would be nice to hear/see something about an actually fun game.
