Tho on the twitch live stream the developers of "for honor" claimed to do something against offensive crest-icons, I also feel like its all only big talk. But as it seems your opinion is the same... No wonder people are stupid enough to make racisitc symbols, when other people are so stupid to think its totally ok and not worth the effort.
Sorry but if you think its ok for a company to not ban a player for this, I can't respect you and your attitude.
Like a company should be honorfull and insta ban such people... like not only from game but permabann his whole uplay/ubisoft account.
Do that to 1000 of those idiots and I bet people will stop acting that stupid, especially if they put money in their accounts with online registered games.
Sadly companies and people like you got a carefree blinded attitude. Gladly where I live people think racism is the worst scumbag attitude and people care to do something against it. Can`t expect that from anyone I guess...
A lot of people used to think this until bigger devs like Blizz and Ubi started banning people completely after a warning or two. The fact of the matter is, if you agree to certain conduct, and then break the rules and get permabanned, who cares. The game developers already have your money, and it's your own fault for failing to follow rules that you agreed to.Originally Posted by sirmon Go to original post
We're in a day and age where you just can't do that anymore and I for one am proud of that. Game developers should push these people out. More money is lost by negative environments/toxic players then by banning the players who foster it.
uhh, I'm so glad some people share my opinion on this, I thought after the first answer we might be in a state of not caring about those things and I am maybe too old, or too old fashioned. Feels good that some still feel as offended by those things as myself. Tatally agree people after paying the game and doings such things should get their account closed
oh yea smartboy, but do you actually "realize that the swastika" is turned in a different direction? Even today you find the hooked cross on temples in india, china, tibet etc... I know that, but actually the cross turns in a diferent direction. And for that symbol on the screenshot, its turning in the way of the nazi symbol... furthermore, you really wanna deny that there on the screenshot with that colour setting its not meant to be a racist symbol?
man your way off, is that how you handle this stuff? *slowclap*
This is false, swastikas have been represented with both arm directions before the Nazis, just write Swastika and you will find several examples of swastikas with the same direction as the Nazi one before Nazis were around.Originally Posted by EpicMerlin Go to original post
Now, the fact that it is represented in black, slightly rotated and with a red/white background is what references to the Nazi swastika, not just the direction of the arms.
Personally, I crossed paths in the alpha with an emblem like that and I just loled, I am pretty sure they are just trolls or want to make a joke, the same as the people who made a ***** emblem or other random things, it is just dark humor.
I'll hardly find any of those emblems offensive, I also can understand the decision to ban people who make those, from a company point of view I would ban those even if as a player I don't really care.
