Not going to quote every negative post as it would be pointless and too time consuming, but it is discouraging to see how some people are unappreciative. You didn't fix what I wanted fixed, you didn't fix it the way I wanted, etc... Smh! This is a major step in the right direction, stop whingeing and give credit where credit is due.
Thanks, I hope it works. The way it is now makes it very hard to enjoy the game. What kinda measures are you putting in place to level the playing field to those that have acquired high level gear through exploits and such. Consider special vendor sale. To bring everyone back to the same level as your moving forward with the warnings and bans in place...
Dude your sig pic is way too big!Originally Posted by XtG.MaceMcfury Go to original post
Right on dude. Never thought I would see a forum top the venom and hatred from early battlelog. But this definitely wins the prize for "most toxic community". It's a good game and no doubt will be great game hell its still in its infancy.Originally Posted by slopat Go to original post
I absolutely agree credit where credit is due.Originally Posted by slopat Go to original post
So long as you agree that a professional, multi-million dollar studio has no excuse for not having this kind of boilerplate, obvious, industry _standard_ (their words, not mine) approach already set up, supported, communicated and actionable on launch day.
If you want everyone else to give credit where credit is due then you, good sir, must be equally willing to apply responsibility and accountability when it is equally due.
Is the formal policy on the whole positive? Yes.
Is it sufficient? No. It makes no proper address of the damage done to date and directly remediate the impacts with those unquestionably guilty of generating the problem. The damage done by not revoking material gains means the actions were still profitable to the abusers, and that is simply unacceptable, like fining 100$ for stealing $1000; pointless and still rewards the action.
Is it timely? Again, No. It is inexcusable that a group of professionals whose job it is to manage these problems have floundered on this issue for nearly 2 months with 330 million dollars of consumers money in the bank.
I applaud your willingness to defend a good action.
But I would suggest you're the one being uneven in the consideration of the facts and situation rather than those pointing out rationally where this action is inadequate after the mishandling to date.
They would have had less to fix if they were paying attention (or rather were dedicated) during development and had fixed the issues present during the beta prior to release. I don't think Division players would have been put off with yet another release delay. They created their own monster. Gamers have a right to be skeptical, especially when this is becoming the norm in the industry. $80 for UN-finished games and $40 seasons passes for replay value, sorry, gamers are totally within their right here, especially when teeth have to be pulled to get any sort of communication from the companies we support.Originally Posted by slopat Go to original post
Credit is due when a job is done correctly the first time around. I and many others understand full well issues can slip by, but this, this is ridiculous.

"Second, sanctions will be implemented for players who repeatedly abuse exploits and will vary depending on the severity of the abuse, as well as the history of the player. Possible sanctions include character rollbacks, account suspensions and permanent bans. Those who encounter bugs during the normal course of play have absolutely nothing to worry about."
There hasn't been a game released in the last ten years that wasn't broken in some way. That goes double for online games. And there won't be when at least a third of the gaming community is actively trying to break, exploit or cheat the game everyday.
Get over it and be happy their fixing it. If you don't like the state of the industry fine. But to put that on Massives shoulders isn't fair at all. I know arguing with whiney people is pointless. So this is my mic drop. Good job massive/ubi keep it coming.
