Players with disabilities discrimination
As a 71-year-old, I had not played Battlefield 2042 for nearly a year. After logging in for the first time, I noticed a significant update, so I left my PC on overnight to complete it. The next day, I was eager to jump back in, only to discover that my custom controller, which works with vjoy and UCR (Universal Control Remapper), was no longer functional. I was furious to learn that EA's anti-cheat update had blocked the game from launching due to these programs. I can already anticipate the dismissive comments, but one thing is clear: they are discriminating against players with disabilities. It's high time for the Americans with Disabilities Act to reconsider the lawsuit. A quick Google search for "Video Game Accessibility: A Legal Approach" will reveal the ongoing issues. Cheaters will always exploit the system, ultimately ruining the experience for genuine players. This is the reality we have always lived in and will continue to face in everything we do. Maybe the prompt should have read, “You can no longer play the game, we have refunded your payment”.
