EA IS NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE!!! EA just isn’t the same anymore.

Years ago, when we bought games from EA and its platforms, we actually enjoyed spending hours in them. We bought games because we wanted to have fun, relax, compete, and simply enjoy the experience.

But now? We have been dealing with the same ridiculous bugs in Star Wars Battlefront II for almost three months, and apparently nobody at EA or the development team considers it important enough to fix.

What exactly is the problem?

You’re playing normally. Everything is fine. You get a couple of kills, you’re enjoying the match - and suddenly, BAM! Your character turns 180 degrees and starts staring straight down at the ground.

That’s it. Your game is basically ruined.

The only way to fix it is to respawn. And then, a few minutes later, it happens again. Sometimes it happens repeatedly throughout the entire match.

How is this acceptable after THREE MONTHS?

This isn’t some minor visual glitch that nobody notices. It directly affects gameplay. It ruins the match, destroys the experience, causes frustration, and makes players want to quit the game instead of continuing to play.

EA, what happened to the quality control? What happened to actually listening to your players?

We are not asking for miracles. We are asking you to FIX A BASIC GAME-BREAKING BUG.

I honestly suggest that players start making noise about this. Share this message. Post about the issue. Make sure EA and the developers actually see how angry and disappointed the community is.

Because if companies only start listening when their financial results start suffering, then maybe that is exactly what needs to happen.

Stop buying games that are abandoned after release. Stop giving money to companies that expect players to tolerate broken experiences. If EA refuses to fix problems that have existed for months, players have every right to simply stop supporting these games financially.

Maybe when the numbers in the financial reports start going down, someone on the board of directors will finally ask:

“Why are players leaving?”

And maybe then someone will remember that the people buying these games are not just numbers on a spreadsheet. We are the players who made these games successful in the first place.

We want to enjoy gaming. We want to have fun. We want to experience the game we paid for - not spend an entire evening dealing with bugs, frustration, and rage.

EA, FIX YOUR GAME.

We have been waiting long enough.

Sincerely,
A very frustrated player - NEtFlix1991
