Patch delayed

I had a feeling that the gurus were waiting for the company to do a statement for all of them. I completely understand why they did it like this.

If it‘s because of the #blackouttuesday then it‘s ok but they even haven‘t spoken up about this issue. It feels very insincere.

This isn't something the gurus can just talk about, because they would be representing EA and maxis and I'm pretty sure they aren't allowed to say stuff that isn't about the game in a lot of cases. That they delayed the patch tells us what the people making the game thinks, but it's up to the ea big wigs to make the statements. The gurus did the thing they could do in this situation and action speak louder than words.

The gurus can't just delay the patch because they want to, it was a higher up decision.

Ofcourse they had to get permission to do it, I'm not saying anything else. I'm just explaining why they aren't making any statements.

Yes, but if the higher ups approve it, then there isn't any reason they shouldn't be able to talk about it.

Nobody in their right mind should say "yes absolutely delay the pack for BLM but don't tell them it's for BLM or you're fired."

It's not about anyone having against their employees saying anything, however it's understandable if they want to do a statement for the company, and not have employees go off on their own. I don't get what is so hard to understand about that? Why are you putting that meaning into what I'm saying when that's not what I'm saying. The gurus obviously had been told - 'don't say anything, EA is going to make a statement as a company'.
