NOUVELLES OFFICIELLES

Excellent! :) Or Supreme, I should say.

can we possibly get an update on the progress of payments via paypal? would be nice to keep my sub's up.

If all goes well with testing, do you think it will be available in the next week or 2?

wonderful, i hope it's before my current sub's run out, a gift was sent to my paypal so that i could keep both myself and my wife's accounts subbed a couple more months. so please let me know when it's ready, or if i can help test things.

Yeah we waiting as well lost some guildies to this debacle. Hope some still wanna return to game once this is fixed. Since for those ppl its like the end of ryzom if from one day to another your char is gone (well not playable)

We can't give any date for the moment but you'll be informed as soon as the date will been known.

I will start playing again, once PayPal is live. Been waiting forever for this to happen. Very excited.

what boggles my mind is the amount of time it's taking to set up a paypal. i've used paypal for 15 years, and it only took me about 30 minutes to set one up, and 2 days to verify. not sure what the hold-up could be, but it sure does seam like bad business to not want people to pay you money for something.

I know that would be my number one priority to get my cash flow back AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. who ever thought a company would ever NOT want to make money?

how about we get some facts as to what the hold up is, so we the players can complain to the source of the hold up on behalf of ryzom and WG. if paypal's slowing things down i think they'd get their act together when they start getting e-mails from all the users that want to play, they'll fix it faster.

i love ryzom, but the fact is that if they don't get on the page where the PAYING player's needs should be met, the game's doomed to die, because let's face it, when you take this long to give the customer a way to pay you for something, your sure as hell not going to make any money and it might cost you their business if you take too long to fix something.

i'm sorry that i feel the need to be so harsh, but let's face it my words are felt by many, but only i have the nerve (as an american) to speak my mind openly.

just saying what others are thinking,
talkirc

You mean you installed Paypal widgets on a website of yours, and setting everything up (including security, etc) took only 30 minutes?

Creating a simple user account on their website is obviously straightforward, but that's not the hold-up here.

Presumably what's taking time is integrating the payment subsystem in the existing payment profile page. I'm not a web developer, but I'm aware that can take a lot of time :)

Especially considering that they're not only adding Paypal, but creating a system that will allow other payment options to be plugged in more easily....

I don't think it can be that complicated if so many million games in the world use it. They could at least implement Paypal while they are working on the other payment methods.
