Nah, it's an incredibly common thing with EA.
They go silent on issues that are an uproar to the community, which they won't address.
Silence is their medicine; they wait it out, and have done so many times.
Then they release a new game with a ton of lies and false promises, draw everybody in to the dream, steal from their wallets and ditch them again. This has happened numerous times and they've well learned the routine.
The community says a whole lot like "I'll never buy an EA product again", but how many people stick to that? I'd encourage people stick to their intent and never buy from EA again. They are going to steal, lie, and scam from people intentionally. They always have. They're about the money far more than anything else.
Games used to be people putting their heart into making something awesome so people could have fun. The dev's themselves shared the dream and inspiration to enjoy it. It's only about $$$ to EA, and that's why you're guaranteed that they won't change - they'd have to fire everybody in control, including themselves.

They got me again :) I had a great time during the beta, I thought they were turning things around. Maybe they will, but not off to a good start. I'm kicking myself, I swore I'd never pre-order games(in general) again...but the beta was so much fun.
