Re: 2nd time this month ripped off by Hut

How does one company manage to make so many mistakes?

Do they hire incompetent people ?

Or are they just so understaffed and do not care to spend more money to fix problems?

For years it has seemed their company is the most incompetent company possible.

Will this ever change or are we all doomed to have such a crappy company being the only source for a hockey game?

This is so dang annoying too because this game is so close to being great, but EA just has its head up its arse when it comes to fixing things .

If any other company was as incompetent it would have gone out of business long ago yet EA still manages to stay in business is incredible.

How does one company manage to make so many mistakes? EA has 1 team working on the NHL games that get released every year. That is one hell of a schedule.

Do they hire incompetent people ? No they do not.

Or are they just so understaffed and do not care to spend more money to fix problems? They have complete monopoly over hockey games. As long as people keep buying the games that are lowballed, they will keep lowballing the games for a bigger profit. The world is all about money, buddy. 

For years it has seemed their company is the most incompetent company possible.

Will this ever change or are we all doomed to have such a crappy company being the only source for a hockey game? This will change if someone else makes another hockey game or if there is a mass boycott.

You are wrong about one thing for sure.

They do hire incompetent people and they are what usually are called management.

Although in EA's case should be called mismanagement.

If there are not enough staff to fix or keep game running properly then yes they are incompetent in managing a company .

Why are you so quick to back them up,you work for EA?

All you do is rip what I say yet support it fully in the fact you agree the game sucks and EA has a monoply, as if I didn't know that?

Um I assume what you are answering would be called sarcasm,but hey go nuts,Buddy.

Buddy buddy buddy. 

The games suck, I agree. But the reality is that EA has NO reason at all to improve their NHL games. They get more profit this way so this is the way they go.

If anything EA has excellent management. They are doing the smart thing for the company because as I already mentioned, the world is ALL about money.

And no, I am not working for EA. I am just a Finnish student who knows what the business world is all about. 

Do you think anything you say is not obvious already?

Instead of trying to BS people about what business is about I suggest you try to employ the business tactics EA uses in the real world and see how successful you are.

If people do not try to get others to stop allowing themselves to be walked all over then yes what you say is true.

But I refuse to be a sheep like you and follow the herder so enjoy your EA worship .

First you tell me that everything I say is obvious, then suddenly it is "BS"?

"BS people about what busness is about" ?

You clearly don't understand how valuable a monopoly is for companies. 

The only thing that we "normal" users can do about the situation is trying to perform a mass boycott. Whining on forums that aren't even managed by staff of EA is not going to help. Wake up buddy.

Did i attack you ?

I posted about someone elses comment and now somehow i am the one wasting time?

How bout u wake up kid and get out of ur moms basement and in the real world maybe ?

How does a student know anything about business other then what you have studied in school ?

When you (sorry IF you)graduate school try and start a business using EA's business tactics and see how fast you go out of business .

But hey be like the rest of the idiots paying EA to make subpar garbage and then defend them,LMAO,and u tell me to wake up?

I live in Canada and u think for a second I don't understand what and how a monopoly is or how it works,its when people are stupid enough to keep buying a product from a company taht does not deserve our money.

You sir are a sucker for which there is one born every minute and apparently we all play NHL 14.

I never said i was smarter cus it took me way too long to finally stop buying into this **bleep** and unfortunately wasted a lot of tiem and $ on this piece of garbage NHL14.

So excuse me if I am bitter but I dont like being attacked by kids who think they know how the world works.

Nor do I like being ripped off by a company clearly not making any efforts to make this game better.

You are a really funny guy, I will give you that. But honestly, stop making stuff up, okay?

"I posted about someone elses comment" - This comment is obviously directed to me and it is the one I replied to.

"wasting time?" - I don't recall claiming that you were wasting anyones time.

"How bout u wake up kid and get out of ur moms basement and in the real world maybe ?" - Based on that sentence I would assume that I am if not older, then at least more mature than you are. 

"How does a student know anything about business other then what you have studied in school ?" - Have you heard about the term "Business school" ? Try googling it. Also, the internet is a great place to learn about stuff.

"When you (sorry IF you)graduate school try and start a business using EA's business tactics and see how fast you go out of business ." - There is no way to use that tactic if you don't have monopoly on a product with very high demand. EA's business tactics are excellent for the company. I would not be able to start up a business with those tactics because I don't have monopoly on a product with very high demand. You claim that you know what monopoly is about, that sentence makes it obvious that you don't.

"But hey be like the rest of the idiots paying EA to make subpar garbage and then defend them,LMAO,and u tell me to wake up?" - I defend EA for doing the right thing for the company. I know that it sucks for us customers but there is still only 2 possible solutions to that. Make another high quality hockey game or have a mass boycott of NHL games. Neither of those are very likely to happen. I will continue buying these games because they are the only ones available, they are good enough to me and I can't get enough of hockey in general. I have never had any major issues with them for that matter.

"I live in Canada and u think for a second I don't understand what and how a monopoly is or how it works,its when people are stupid enough to keep buying a product from a company taht does not deserve our money." - Your English skills aren't really at the level I would expect a North American's English skills to be but that is irrelevant. What you just said has nothing to do with monopoly. Monopoly is simply when a company has absolutely no competition for a specific product. It is a working business model for the company if the product has a high demand. 

"You sir are a sucker for which there is one born every minute and apparently we all play NHL 14." - You have now completely convinced me of being older and more mature than you.

"I never said i was smarter cus it took me way too long to finally stop buying into this **bleep** and unfortunately wasted a lot of tiem and $ on this piece of garbage NHL14." - Neither did I claim that you said you were smarter.

"So excuse me if I am bitter but I dont like being attacked by kids" - I have not "attacked" you at any point. I have maturely tried to explain very simple things to you, but you don't seem to understand. That is unfortunate. 

" who think they know how the world works." - The world is all about money. That is the sad truth.

If you plan on replying, do so maturely.
