From the Kotaku article

Quote:

And what doesn't sit well with me and others is the fact these were community requested features, especially advancing weeks from the web. Few things fire up a community like a developer taking its suggestions seriously and bringing them to a game. To turn around and charge for that sends a pretty bad message.

I guess most companies can't erase thier compitition so those measures have to be taken to stay competitive.

I take it you've never owned a BMW before. Really not that great of an experience.

Well seeing as EA will measure the success/failure of this based on how many people buy it...Arguing why it's justified and saying that it's worth purchasing might as well be saying you're happy about it. At the very least supporting it.

The COD people are just as bad (if not worse) than EA when it comes to this. If I played those games and this was a COD thread I'd have beef with them too.

It is a good talk aside from the fact that more than half the people come up with unbased claims and are just making things up. For every valid post there are two following just making things up.

Exactly!! The best part is we all know who these people are, yet they continue to post like they know what they are talking about.

The commish can advance the dynasty as necessary via his console. Any participants who wish to can sim their games on their consoles using the same sim-playcalling style of play that will available via the web. In short, users don't have to spend one penny over the retail price of the game to get the "full online dynasty experience". To claim otherwise is simply false.

I didn't think this was the difficult to understand. It's amazing what people will say to complain, simply for the sake of complaining.

So, why does it concern you that people support it while they don't buy it.

Who cares? To each their own, right?

I'm fine with people who are against the whole thing and expressing their opinion, but to disagree with people who support the extra feature and have the option of buying it or not shouldn't bother others, either.
