[Discuss] The removal of "Legacy" attachments, the introduction of fairer play!

[=Iceman]

Not spending a cent until they at least give back the old guns, M95 is almost useless with 12 shots. I'm just going to use my credits from now on.

[SPAW]

I for one will not spend another dime on an EA game before you give me back what I paid for!
Thank you

[Bombardement]

I stopped paying a long time ago. I won´t stop playing though. I want to troll people with Boosters too now. I´ve got the Credits for it so why not? ^^
Let´s see how many will leave the server when a pro starts using Boosters.
Mortar Strike and RPG here I come.

Oh and don´t forget to pirate EA games. An eye for an eye.

Alright. That's our response from EA.

Funny, I expected more.

EAsy doesn't care about any of the people on the forums complaining. there is a video floating around with the ex head of EAsy talking about the same thing when Heros changed their pricing structure a few years ago. Basically, they aren'y going to do anything about it. Obviously only 2 percent of players use the forums according to the video. Just uninstall the game. They don't care about you, or the fact that they stole our weapons.

this fuckin sucks.

"Why don’t you listen to the community and what we want?
We absolutely value our community. We constantly monitor our forums for feedback and ideas on how to make Battlefield Play4Free a better game. Your experience is our top priority. We know it hasn’t been fun to feel like you can’t win, and we know it hasn’t been fun to feel like there’s no challenge. This is a situation where we had to make a tough decision, and in the short term, it is not pleasant for everyone, but we believe these changes will lead to a more enjoyable gaming experience for all our players."

I would argue that the majority of the people that claim that gameplay is unfair are people that are unable to pay for character upgrades. I would also argue that the people that are willing to pay for upgrades, are dedicated players and pay so your game may continue to evolve. In a business sense .. would you rather develope a game where free to play players contribute nothing ? I really hope that you've learned your lesson EAsy ... Never bite the hand that feeds you.

As my last few steps are taken before ripping their bovine excrement ToSA to shreds in court, I have also filed complaints with the BBB and econsumer.gov

I suggest everyone do the same.

This is Fraud, False Advertisement, Theft and Breech of Contract to say the least.

You cant sell something as permanent have your people reassure the consumer that it IS permanent, then remove the item and replace it with something that people wouldnt pay 1 cent for.

No, they say that only because they know theyre wrong and cant say much else, of course thats what theyre gonna say, it was their bullsh!t excuse in the first place, it hasnt become any more or less bullsh!t so why change tactics now?
They cant give a real response because they know how wrong they are.

Threads merged.

Thank's for the abundant amount of feedback folks. I know you guys want more of a response on this issue, right now VitalBullet's initial post is it. That may change going forward, but for the time being that's where we're at.

Just a question. If you succeed will EAsy go down and or will people get some sort of compensation like a refund?

right from the TOS

They are breaking federal law..sorry buddy but TOS does not give you any right to break federal law by committing false advertisement and fraud by saying weapons last forever. they are misleading people to purchase items that are advertised with specified abilities and "lasting forever" and then taking those items away after purchase and replacing them with a product that does not match what is advertised and is of lesser value.

Under federal law, the seller can not violate the Federal Trade Commission laws and regulations governing consumer protection and misleading marketing of products or services.

They acknowledge that they cannot limit their own liability pertaining to FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION. The words LASTS FOREVER on an item that is being sold with EXPRESSED and SPECIFIC capabilities is clearly a FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION.
