Is premium absolutely necessary?

More specifically, does it include maps that most servers have in rotation now that you'll need in order to not get the boot when it loads that map?

lol global society.




I actually was going to post that I was proud of EA, but then I turned on NoScript and it force redirects me.

People complaining about hackers are far more annoying than the one or two actual hackers I come across.

Most times I get accused of hacking it's just amusing, but some of the more persistent whingers need to be punched in the face repeatedly and have their internet access revoked.

Honestly i've only come across those auto one shot kill hacks about 5 times in the hundreds of hours I have played, and all of them were on 64 player metro. Which is just one of the many reasons I never play that map.

Figured out the performance issues, the game just doesn't share resources well with with Firefox so I tried Chrome for the game and everything ran WAY smoother just like during the beta.

How are you going to bitch about this... This happens to every fucking game ever made.

Name one game that didn't come out at one price
Then have add on content for money released
Then get the price lowered once sales slow.
Then have a bundle of the game and expansions towards the end of its life to keep it going.

You kids spend so much time on internet forums making EA to be the devil. Maybe not the greatest, but having a video game cost normal prices on release, then offering it cheaper later is nowhere near their idea... Quit looking for ways they are bad and you will be less bitter.

Same with 2142 and Northern Strike, I didn't mind at all, Northern Strike was totally worth whatever it was that I paid for it at the time

the most hilarious thing was when SF/AF/EF were free with BF2 patch 1.5 and people were bitching against it because they bought them 5 years earlier.

Unfortunately, SF was not included for free in the 1.50 patch, only the booster packs which integrate into the main game were.

BTW, I recently contacted EA support and they added a BF2 Complete Collection to my Origin account, when I told them my retail BF2 and SF keys, as only my original copies of EF and AF showed up.
(Same for Spore, where the retail keys didn't work.)

I just don't understand how you can be mad at old software being sold for less then new software...

I understand the idea that when sales slow they'll put it for less money. But the whole idea of releasing DLC that costs as much as a game?! Fuck that. It originally started way back when they would take forever to make DLC and it was worthwhile to buy it a year or whenever after the game was released but now they purposefully withhold content just to have something to sell later and make more money. If it was stupid clothing or something that would add to the game slightly (or at least not detract if you didn't buy it) then fine but it's to the point where you get completely left behind if you don't buy it.
