Fair enough for DLC, but go take a fuck when it's plain old MP Evil or Very Mad

I see this as another big F up by EA. I'll be surprised if when this pay to play model comes in if they have half the population they do now. You'd have to be a retard to pay for this game.

It's to be expected when a behemoth like EA consumes the little developers in its monopolistic endeavours.

Don't be deluded into thinking you must possess the latest cool weapon, will make all your real life troubles fade away. EA are the worst corporate whore to grace the commercial wastes, its time someone shoved their fist in her ASS !
