Why. It makes sense what he is saying. People think they are owed something when there not

I do not like this update, and neither do a lot of people, but only a select few of no avatar users with 52 posts or something are complaining about it that much.

I do know what it means. Sorry I can't say anymore as it might offend.

No, because a) no one thinks they are owed anything they are simply CUSTOMERS giving a COMPANY feedback on their PRODUCT. And b) entitlement is generally A feeling that someone deserves something despite not having done anything to earn it. When you are giving feedback to a company about a product you are spending money on that's not entitlement. If I bring home a bike from Walmart and it falls apart the next day and I take it back and tell them it sucks that's not entitlement. Though I probably shouldn't have bought a bike from Walmart. Now, if I am the snobby child of a rich lawyer and I refuse to take a job bc I have to start at the bottom, that is entitlement.

Yeah but it's not broken mate, you decided to spend your money, which is fine, but it's a free, maybe a more conservative approach was needed before you spent your money.

Where does this "self entitlement" like people are owed something by ea? It's getting rediculous, "this update sucks" or "what a waste". Yeah I understand those are your opinions but don't think for one minute ea is in debt to you. You decided to play this game, you decided to invest money all though this game can be enjoyed just the same for free. Its free, and for all the "veteran" players, this is TSTO, this is how it was when we found it. No themed updates and all that jazz, just normal TSTO. Players are forgetting that this is how it is. So if players think its rediculous to wait for updates and such, remember its bit a console game you can play 24/7. You play it with a few mins spare. I just don't know why people would spend so much money if this games bothers them to much, I really don't, it boggles my mind. Sorry for the rant, saw a post about why some of the "older posters" don't post here anymore, this is one reason for me.

I take it you're new to using the internet and are finding it hard to grasp how anonymous complaining works? It's cool, it may take you a couple of weeks to get use to how forum communities and the internet in general works.

If I'm wrong then, good one :thumbup: way to keep it retro

Mate I've been around here long enough to see so many players come and go saying the same thing. Mate I just tell it how it is, truth usually hurts doesn't it?

I'm perfectly fine with the game, I think the update is dumb so I didn't spend my money. That doesn't mean I think you're less wrong. Also it's not a free game, it has free content.

You know, I didn't see you * about all the praise EA got for stonecutters. Ppl will give good feedback when stuff is good.

Maybe because you only remember what you want to remember, I don't have to justify my comments and what I've said to any one simply because you missed the response or thread, give me a break, if you think the update is dumb and that's why you didnt spend your money, then whats the drama? Gee whizz, you wanted attention, well now you got it, unbeleivable.

Oh you're looking to hurt someone feelings?
Say no more, I can PM you a couple names of some really easy marks on here. :wink:

What makes you say that, why jump to conclusions, if what I say annoys people, how come the very reason I post for what annoys me and such doesnt go the other way? Sure there are heaps who feel the same way i do? So what other conclusions are we jumping to today?

Let's all calm down. Take a couple of deep breaths. In through the nose. out through the mouth.

Ummm I don't think so. I don't have any drama, I just happen to disagree with your OP. One could argue you were looking for the attention.

And what I remember is way more threads about how awesome stonecutters was than how * it was and I don't remember anyone saying "oh boo, why are you giving good feedback to ea stfu". You can't have it both ways when something blows customers will say so, when something is awesome they'll say so too. If they don't a company isn't gonna know what's successful vs what's not. Well I guess you could argue in this case they will cuz they'll see what ppl are spending donuts on.

Yeah ok mate. I was simply stating certain people think ea owes th something and iam sick of all the whinging threads, you've taken it upon yourself as personal not me. Iam not going to argue, now I know I made the right decision to only make brief cameo's on this site now.
