I shouldn't worry too much about COE, it was never fully developed so I guess they dumped it. It was only a poor version of Clash of Clans in any case. If you play Clash of Clans then it wasn't worth playing COE.

ZZZZZZZzzzzzzz. Wake me up again when they add new content.
Lol, you've already lost that money!
Once you spend in the game you have lost, no getting it back. Little thing called tough luck unfortunately
Just because Tynon may go out of business doesn't mean that you are then going to lose that money.. it's already out your pocket.. it's GONE!
Should double think before spending![]()
No you are 110% incorrect
he spent $35 on virtual goods which he then used to power up his virtual toons. SO he has that virtual powered up toons that are his and noone else can lay claim to have those toons on those servers. SO yes he did buy something. It is not something you can physically touch or hold but it is a virtual good. Therefor if the game shuts down before he is done using said virtual goods he is out the money.
Perception is King
Buy something and Tynon/uCool will not give you your money back. The second that money leaves your pocket, you have lost it.
In the OP, he has already lost the $35 but he has not lost the advantage that he gained out of those $35, therefore, if uCool go out of business then you aren't losing the money, but the advantage you gained from spending that money. There is quite a big difference!
David's right, once you have paid for your virtual goods in this case gems, since you've already received the items it's no breach of contract. You spent 'em you lost 'em even if the game does go down. Always read the Terms and Conditions of sale.
And regarding CoE, it's still live. Not sure where the where the rumours of it being 'dumped' came from other than the same complaints on their forum regarding lack of company input.
Finally, Dawnseeker has left uCool. Hopefully we are singing from the same hymn sheet now.

actually, he never had property of any items, heroes nor purchased goods.
according to the TOS anything regarding the game stays property of ucool:
1.10. Ownership 1.10.1. Games and Service All rights and title in and to the Service (including without limitation any user accounts, titles, computer code, themes, objects, characters, character names, stories, dialogue, catch phrases, locations, concepts, artwork, animations, sounds, musical compositions, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, moral rights, any related documentation, "applets" incorporated into the Game Client, character profile information, recordings of games played using the Game Client, and the Game Client and server software) are owned by uCool or its licensors. The Game and the Service are protected by United States and international laws, and may contain certain licensed materials in which uCool’s licensors may enforce their rights in the event of any violation of this Agreement.
what we/he bought are technically fees to use those services/items. you are however correct on with him being out of his money, gone and lost forever.
there was however a supreme court that the ruled the gamer in a different game was to be refunded. it was different though because he lived in east asia and the game was not und US laws (unlike tynon).
I believe the game has to follow the laws of the country the gamer is in. Which is why when a game does a jackpot game. Italy and certain parts of the states are not permitted to enter and win.
If you want to play a game, then you better follow the TOS or go find another game.
They don't care whether you live somewhere other than the USA and they are not obliged to follow the laws of your country.
They are legally liable, therefore, they don't have to give a damn about what other entities/persons believe outside their game but make the choices they think will solely benefit their game.
I don't want to change what you believe.. that's not my place here. However, I'm just trying to explain to you why they should not follow laws of other countries and instead follow the laws of what their TOS says!
I'm not on about ToS I am on about uCool still need to follow certain laws in certain countries. Not once did I mention their ToS.
My post was a simple pointer games have to follow certain laws depending on which country that gamer is from.
I believe there was talks about limitations on how much people could spend on a game in certain countries. By which the game provider would have to follow.
I don't really care what uCool do.
Whatever they do we need to deal with. All I'm saying is they have to follow rules too.
It doesn't matter what country your're in, this is what you agreed to when you created your account.
In short no refunds are applicable unless you got yourself a very expensive and probably a not very clever one. The only exception to the 'rule' so to speak is if any purchases you have made weren't received by you.Originally Posted by Terms of Service
