Re: PLEASE DON´T LEAK and RESPECT THE DEVELOPERS
@Jesse165I do not see the reason why you blame people for buying what was promised to be the next best thing. How dared they believe the promises that werent fulfilled ?
An extremist humiliated them and mocked them to not buy if they dont like it, expecting them to buy anyway. Those who bought good intentions, bought the never-to-finish game. The Betterpeople bought and paid. Those who didnt buy due to humiliation ? Did not buy and save themselves the humiliation. Humiliated were those who bought as well as EA/DICE.
You definitely can fully blame the EA for decision to not finish the game after release. That is disgraceful. EA/DICE to blame. Nobody else. No need to gaslight please. In essence, EA/DICE combo punished those who bought that unfinished game. Simple as that. People are not responsible for their corporate decision to scrap the games development possibly even pre-release.
I dont complain about 2042 because I dont bother.
Testing is not a thing to be grateful for. It is a service to EA/DICE, that could definitely be paid for. If you told their corporate bosses that testing isnt free, you would see the money rage how dare they ...
Breaking NDA ... you could say Ungrateful EA doesnt pay the betatesters and thus, they are leaking info.
This is why testing should be paid for, done by paid testers, not for free, along with threats of legalities. I honestly do not care, but I dislike your moralistic attitude where you want to punish testers as hard as possible, while leaving EA with no punishment for BF5. Why the double standard ?
Punish EA as hard as possible ? Hmm ? No ? But punish leakers ? Ungrateful ones !!! Seriously ? Goodness.
Why are you so afraid that EA wont let you test anything ? They are a corporate entity that decides on its own. You dont owe them anything just as they dont owe you anything unless you buy their product. I would say you are being rather hypocritical by putting all the blame even for bf5 on folks while letting EA/DICE get away with everything. It seems to me like you believe that EA/DICE can do no wrong. This is one of things that are part of obvious groupthink/cognitive dissonance. Open your eyes, and Yes, I do believe your hostility is misplaced by largely blaming the victim for bad things. You would be punishing the victim instead of the perpetrator. Both sides did wrong but you blame only one. Then there is consumer who did no wrong but paid for the game and was delivered subpar product - thus punished for paying.(testers for leaks, EA for bf 5, however the tester thing pales in comparison to what EA/DICE did with BF 5)
