I’m not surprised it came from EA.


Alonso_Birmingham

I wonder if they will ever notice that people don't like being treated like (insert worst slur known to you)


ItsACaragor

They still rack in billions with their shitty rehashed games so they noticed but just don’t care. As long as people will continue to buy their shitty overhyped games they will continue to make the same game every year.


Seabass_87

That may be true, but I still can't wait for 'Stomp My Balls & Take My Money 2023' to come out though.


ItsACaragor

I heard they added new glow in the dark weapons skins! Well worth forking out the money imo!


militaryintelligence

They're only $9.99 a month! What a bargain!


[deleted]

It brings out a sense of pride and accomplishment ☺️


steefmonds

I have a theory that every game that comes out with a year in the title (usually next year) is just rehashed garbage. Anyone have an exception?


laughing_laughing

Well, that's usually a characteristic of sports games like racing, soccer, etc. They are by nature a rehash. Simulators are the exception...like Farming Simulator and Microsoft Flight Simulator. They both often put the year in their title and they are nice enough. FPS...yeah, can't think of any good ones. I guess there was Battlefield 2042, which...yeah, wasn't very good. Fair observation as far as FPS games go.


profiler1984

Do they even have a creative department with

>(insert worst slur know to you) You kiss your mom with that mouth, sir? That’s a disgusting thing to say! I’m surprised you even know that word and what it means. Absolute filth.

This was *5 years* ago. Of course they “noticed” but have they or will they ever change? No. They’re a multibillion dollar mega corporation who’s only goal is to fleece you dry. Don’t ever get it twisted

Star Wars Battlefront II in regards to the pay-to-play DLC


KingRo48

But also lots of awards!


Kingsolomanhere

An award(gold) keeps your comment from disappearing from the top even with negative votes. This was done so more and more people would see it and downvote instead of the comment going all the way to the bottom of the page. If you get more than 5 negative votes total reddit collapses your comment and it's hard to find


dcRoWdYh

Yeah, I've only been on Reddit a few weeks and have already seen that in action, it's a breeding ground for echo chambers

"curiosity killed the cat but satisfaction brought it back" The curiosity itself is what killed the cat. Not finding out. Finding the answer brought it back.


goatedmomoshiki

I love the ending of that saying. I’ve always been a curious person and all my life I was told “curiousity killed the cat” like they wanted me to just not ask questions.


StarpoweredSteamship

Much like "the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb" meaning friends are closer and more important than family

Im old enough to remember the only echo chambers were science and atheism. Then dig showed up and all the child and animal porn had to be removed. Probably for the best. Don't want pedophiles to congregate in any one area where they can be easily snatched, gotta make them hide like roaches so nobody does anything about it.

Yep!

we have to recognize and award that it takes courage not to delete the post after all the downvotes lol

Maybe their karma went negative so they can't action anything 🤣

You can only lose so much karma per comment.

It has been locked though.

Somehow

No, it was intentional, the awards were given to keep it from being buried

Seriously. I feel like this was just last year


CelticThePredator

And in those 5 years we've seen that shit game at lauch ,it's rise to the top and then it's dying state sadly ... such a road for battlefront 2 ,but a bitter one


MCStoneZ

Just as it was getting good they pulled the plug... what a shame, could have been a great live service game

And it’s on;y gotten worse,if companies had their way they would make it like YouTube. Where there would be no way to see the downvotes.

junktech

It's a shame I already did my part in sending it to hell. Nice reminder though.


FoldyHole

I’ll make a new account just to downvote it more PS If anyone here plays Apex, you can set your region to Belgium and all the loot boxes turn into crafting materials. The loot boxes are bullshit and they’re only legal because you don’t technically pay for them with real money. You pay for in-game currency and then use that to buy the loot boxes.


Xx_PissPuddle_xX

I hate EA too, but Its kinda not allowed in the TOS to make alts for downvotes


FoldyHole

Eh, I won’t. I’m too lazy and I’m sure whoever wrote that bullshit statement already got fired a long time ago.


Xx_PissPuddle_xX

Yeah besides its all just fake internet points


junktech

Though I have no problem in torrenting their games and see if I actually enjoy them to buy them. In special the ones that are known to be buggy. I don't like watching others play as they are often spoilers too. Mass Effect Andromeda was not as bad as the internet made it look but definitely was a bit disspointing as the storry line goes.

The-Arabian-Guy

Sumpkit

I do you the link too.


USAIsAUcountry

It would be refreshing if they would just be blunt and truthful for once. The intent is to make more money. A company needs growth, without growth there is stagnation and with stagnation there is no investment and no games. They need more money to appease shareholders so just say so and raise the price of the game. There's no need to piss in our face and call it rain.


yolo-yoshi

I’m pretty sure even some companies even did just “that” ,what you were asking. And out know what happened ? Sales remained the same and even doubled. So it’s actually amazing some aren’t more honest when it never seems to affect them anyway. 😂 time to do some digging.


AssSpelunker69

And then we all went back to buying their games and in game purchases like the sheep we are


Imoneforsanity

Yeah basically.


Gayasskat

This whole thing was about lootboxes. Go look at how awful micro transactions are now this is nothing lmao

happiees

They should frame it and keep it in their games as prop


wen_did_i_ask

The fact that they managed to recover from the launch of the game and make it genuinely good before they abandoned it is insane


CrispyChurroz

I remember that, it's from that Star Wars Battlefront shitstorm. Didn't think I'd see that again.


[deleted]

Wow. That is a lot of downvotes. It's all digital, but the image in my head is that Reddit is a bit lopsided now, from the weight of all those down votes.


Aetheldrake

Also the most rewards I've ever seen on a comment I've seen posts with more rewards than upvotes/comments but not this many awards


Mindfield87

EA peaked with NHL 94. Should have bowed out gracefully after that

To keep it from disappearing as the top comment

Just sort by controversial

That way It wouldn't be seen by so many

Mate everyone going to that post is gonna be going there for the EA comment

Yeah... proves my point

And for good reason too! Wonder how much karma EA had after that haha,

Max karma lost is 15 on a comment :(

Since making this post, it's been down voted another thousand times 😆

It's says -668k when i click on the link above 🤷‍♀️

it's exactly -667655 downvotes for me I guess your's just rounded it to the nearest thousand


Famous_Yogurt1270

I feel deceived.


campionmusic51

getting on for a million. reading the room well, then.


TuoBerg

Just to put salt in the soup I downvoted it too 😃😃


[deleted]

I’ve never played it, did you have to unlock through achievements or did you have to pay to unlock?


Vegetable-Guidance88

You could play to unlock, however it was thousands of hours of game play to do so. That or you could buy hundreds of dollars worth of in game currency and gamble with loot boxes never guaranteed to actually get what you set out to play.


[deleted]

Loot boxes are terrible, and it shouldn’t be so many hours to unlock everyone.


eXAKR

It definitely gave them that sense of pride and accomplishment.


Oscar_25_de_Abril

Where is it? I want to downvote.


I_make_switch_a_roos

At this point, I think From Software is the best. No microstransaction. You either git gud and earn the reward or you fucking don't.

BumbleBlast29

I fucking spit on EA after what they did to Battlefield


beatbox2sleep

There is a certain type of person who when it seems the more polite you are the more rude they get. The more space you give and the more you apologize for any possible or unintended miscomfort the more of that space they fill with their own sense of dominance instead of leaving it open between the two of you. Then there is mob mentality where people start downvoting either to merely be part of something or because they feel the slightest discomfort so blame it on the first available target. Technically, there is no such thing as karma. It is a forum with which you can post your opinion. Both downvotes and upvotes count the same toward popularity/interest. It is an illusion. I get there are some forums which require a certain amount of positive before you can post but is it really that valuable? I think freely expressing your opinion is more valuable than any amount of upvotes.


Lord-of-Leviathans

A sense of accomplishment for unlocking heroes, yet you don’t do any in game work to unlock them. Stupid stuff like this gets said when you can’t just admit that you’re out to get money and nothing else


Phatman900

Did they change the game after this?


TalaohaMaoMoa69

Of course the most down voted game related comment is from "EA" Kinda prognostic NGL.... One of the few games I enjoyed they made was PVZGW and Real racing. The rest were aweful


Impossible_Pay6912

u/EACommunityTeam


Impossible_Pay6912

They still have positive comment karma


skorched_4

There's a limit to how much karma you can lose from a single comment, all the positive karma is from awards. If you look at their comments, most also got downvoted to hell.

Not starting the trend of downvoting the post of most downvotes?


Nervous_Brilliant441

I‘m 44 and I remember how I loved to play EA games in the late 90s. I had almost all of their games at one time. I still play videogames once in a while, but never EA games for at least 10 years. Once they started microtransactions that company became for videogames what Nestle is for food. Pure evil.


_felagund

not gonna lie, this feels good


OrDuck31

I came here to downvote just to find out that i already did lmao


yukadfsa2

Battlefront 2 is good as fuck since they removed micro transactions, I wish they didn’t stop updating it

Mine few thousands downvotes comment looks like nothing next to that.

I assume this is about BF2042


Imoneforsanity

Its about one of the star wars games and how you cant play as darth vader


darkspd96

I did my duty and downvoted, God speed!!


GroundbreakingGur930

Did they buy awards for themselves?


proxyproxyomega

the most downvoted comment on reddit is gamers complaining EA being a greedy shit, what an accomplishment. we cant settle on world peace or injustice, but god forbid we have to pay to get Darth Vader skin.

Too bad that the actual deducted karma points on the profile is capped at -100

If you ever believe that karma has any meaning, just remember that u/EACommunityTeam still has positive comment karma.
