Battlefield 2042, a so-called AAA game, saw a sharp price cut shortly after its release.
And because there are too many BUGS, even the plug-in is difficult to adapt to the game, so that the plug-in developer also runs away with a bucket...
Then a large number of well-known foreign "Battlefield" series anchors have successively announced their retirement from the pit, preferring to return to the previous work and reverse the popularity of "Battlefield 5".
As a joke, Battlefield 5 is now nearly 10 times more online than 2042.
Whether judged from a horizontal or vertical perspective, the various magical deeds since the release of 2042 can definitely be recorded in the book.
True King of The Fallen.
Brother Chicken just mentioned some time ago, there are well-known whistleblowers who say that EA is very disappointed in the performance of "2042" and is trying to milk "2042" in any way.
This includes turning the game into a free-to-play game.
But this is not waiting for the game to be free, the big wronged species who spend money to buy can already bengbu, in the Steam comment area, has long been filled with a large number of "RNM refund" messages.
After all, this is an American game company's game, and Chinese players can only be incompetent and furious.
But the foreign brother is not the same...
The game is too lax, there is false publicity, and subsequent updates are more like fooling, and overseas players have recently launched a collective petition on a petition site in the United States.
Ask EA to refund players who have purchased 2042 across the platform.
In the introduction to the petition, it is mentioned that if the petition is more than 50,000 participants, then one of the best class action lawyers is willing to accept this lawsuit against EA.
When Brother Chicken first learned of the news two days ago, the number of petitioners was less than 50,000 players.
Good fellow, two days have passed, and with the fermentation of the news, the number of petitioners has directly doubled several times, and now it has exceeded 180,000.
This wave is really indignant.
Also, if the number of petitions reaches 200,000, then this will be one of the most participating petitions in the history of this site.
The number of people is still rubbing up, it is estimated that breaking 200,000 is another day or two...
Congratulations to 2042, another piece of history.
In fact, this kind of public welfare petition website does not have legal effect, in essence, it is to use this way to expand its influence and put pressure on EA.
Now it's up to you to see if there are class-action lawyers who stand up for the players and fight this lawsuit.
If this lawsuit is won, the EA bottoms will be lost.
Of course, the old brother who has also purchased the big brother in China also has the opportunity to enjoy the fruits of victory.
However, EA is still pretending to be dead, without any statement.
To tell the truth, such a strong pressure of public opinion has been formed, even if it is not refunded, it will have to lose its skin.
The game was laid out as soon as it was released, and there was actually a precedent for facing the human tragedy of refunding players.
Even spicy is also a game that starts with 2...
Within a month of the release of Cyberpunk 2077, Polish Stupid Donkey publicly apologized for the crashed console version and opened up refunds to players.
And the follow-up will introduce a free DLC as compensation (although this DLC is also an ancestral craft, and it has been jumping tickets like the main body).
At that time, the mess of "Cyberpunk 2077" caused the stock price of the developer Polish Stupid Donkey to plummet, and it was also because of false publicity that the Big Leeks launched a class action lawsuit against the Polish Stupid Donkey.
In the end, the Polish stupid donkey threw money at investors to put things to rest.
Polish stupid donkeys are handled appropriately, both for investors and players who buy games.
This is also in line with their consistent "conscience" style.
Compared with EA, the high judgment, so many years of industry cancer is not in vain, all the way to pretend to die, until now has not given specific rescue measures.
Forcing players to take the initiative.
The heavy punch of justice will eventually hit EA's face, and this wave still has to thank these foreign players who bravely stand up.
This gang of foreign homie can be handled, and there are things they really dare to go on.
