You've just completely screwed over a large portion of the player base just now by turning off weapon and attachment XP in portal servers.
I don't have time to play this game all day every day. I will never be able to be on par with other players without being able to unlock attachments and weapons faster. It takes incredibly long in a normal match for casual folks like me to unlock stuff.
I am a legitimate player who plays breakthrough and conquest matches against bots. I am too old and this game is sometimes too fast for me. I just want to relax after work and kill some bots with my friends, or by myself.
Now, i can't. I'm out until this is changed. This was the last straw for me. EA just completely screwed a lot of us over.
It's really very simple they can not support the software they are selling. They do not seem to have a Quota on the number of sales. All this Baloney about "XP Farming" is total BS and as far as I can tell "XP Farming" is not a recognized legal terminology by any Court. It is 100% a "Money For Nothing" scheme. And their use of the term is an attempt to belittle and besmirch People. It is a scheme and I will detail it's set up one more time.
Market and sell some software.
Set up two types of servers, one an actual server running the software, and another cheap old tech one to pump out some BS messaging 100,000 times a minute until it fries. The cheapies cost about 1/100th of the real deal. As time goes by and they sell more copies of the software they only add more and more cheap throw aways ... thus the scam is complete.
Sit back and watch the money roll in.
I did not see any mention of a Global Quota when they pitched the product.
I am bolder and more knowledgeable about Scams than they ....
I ain't clicking away at that HOST Button no more and highly recommend ya'll stop doing it, it really is bad for your health.
The fatal flaw in this scheme is the theft of peoples time. Time is a commodity that can never be replaced, and I dare them to put a price on it. My stats are ... 64 hours total in game with 24 of that clicking on that scam button. I have convinced two paralegals to join in and we found an Older Lady with about 8 months to live that is clicking away.
Email me EA and I will swap LinkedIn contacts.
At each step there will be more and more mouths to feed.
