Cancelled EA Pro as well because of this.
Damn, EA being * yet again 🙂 First you give us that * filtered Kingdom Of Amalur, then you give us the pathetic "remaster" of Hot Pursuit and now you take away the free BP for your ea play pro subscribers? Your game catalogue is trash, 5% of the games are decent to play and the rest are just bloated *. You are the worst company that has ever existed and I am cancelling my subscription and telling my friends and people I know to do the same. I've defended you for so long like many others hoping it was just a hate wagon from them, but jesus * christ, you are without doubt the worst publisher that has ever existed. Imagine being this greedy. Screw you EA. I long for the day you will go bankrupt.
This is one of the main reasons I purchased the pro plan a month or so ago. I definitely will not be renewing. Will downgrade or cancel if possible.
- @EA_David Everyone in this thread is internet raging about this like you're personally responsible for it and/or that this one small benefit was the ONLY reason they shelled out a subscription for 2+ years (when it obvs would've been cheaper just to buy the battle passes as they came up lol)..
I am not a fan of EA's track record with DLC and in app purchases, I think the corporate greed has stifled creativity, and ruined some great studios and franchises.. but THAT WAS SOMETHING I ALREADY KNEW when I started playing Apex.
I'm sorry any animosity has been directed your way @EA_David
Respawn has made a great game, and they continue to do great work making it better - and here's the funny thing - IT'S FREE TO PLAY. You do not HAVE to purchase anything.
For every single person who posted in this thread about how they're cancelling their sub or quitting the game, I'm going to buy $10 worth of Apex packs, even though I both do not need them and hate giving money to EA almost as much as I hate that they haven't used that money to hire another sound engineer to work on the audio issues in Apex..
Ya'll a bunch of complainers and this is the biggest gathering of 1st world problem having babies I've seen on the internet in a looong time. Take a look at what's happening in the world around you, and like.. maybe this isn't as big of a deal as you think it is. Get some freaking perspective.
And remember, the next mirage who bamboozles you with a legendary skin - probably spent money to buy it directly from the store, overpriced, for no reason other than to have a laugh at your pathetic anger. <3 Why on earth would it not be included after having included it in every other season.
@sSipsterI agree that one should not blame a single individual, but you have to admit that EA is really stupid to do this - as a company with such a history of greedy malpractice and customer neglect, I think it would be stupid not to react and voice your discontent as a consumer.

That's a fairly good point, and I think I let the frustrations of people misdirecting personal blame here blind me to that somewhat.
EA has not only a history, but a continued acceptance of prioritizing greed over quality and that's something that continually worries me with regard to their influence over the Respawn team. :-/
Everyone can get a refund for this as ''seasonal pass'' and ''seasonal battle pass'' are implying the same thing. The word battle is irrelevant.
EA support will initially refuse (claiming some legal loophole because of wording or it being hidden in the T&C covering themselves) but just call out how dishonest it is to advertise in such a deceitful way while being persistent and they'll eventually give your money back.
As they can't change/remove in-game items or currency, you'll still be able to complete the pass while retaining your coins from end of season to purchase the next pass too.
I did this in S1 and had free BP to date. If they remove anything from my account now they'll prove they were lying as i kept all the chat logs.
Shoes on the other foot for a change... EA got EA'd.
