A letter to Codemasters

Posted by MueR as Algemeen

Codemasters has supplied us with a number of email addresses to direct our complaints to. Very nice. If they were read. A week ago, I’ve sent an email to both the GM report email addy and the custserv@cm addy. So far, not even the read receipts have been returned. How the devil do you claim you have customer service if complaints are not even being read?

This post was written by Raedwulf, a raid leader of the Raids’R'Us group.

By the end of the night, we were all level 12, I think, so these comments should reflect a nice mix of the early stages of the new stuff.

Support has returned!

Posted by MueR as Lord of the Rings Online

As you might have read, I have not been overly happy with the level of customer support provided by Codemasters in the Lord of the Rings Online. Leaving people waiting for several hours before even answering bad, making them wait 2 months for an issue to be solved (and still not solving it) is worse. Read the rest of this entry »

The Lord of the Rings is hot these days. First there were the amazing movies by Peter Jackson, now there is the MMORPG ‘The Shadows of Angmar’. Thousands of players are enjoying the great interpretation of Turbine to the world of Tolkien. Eriador was never as crowded. CodeMasters is the european operator of the game, Turbine handles the US players. For the first time in my life, I feel unlucky not to live in the USA.
