I want to know if you guys agree with what has been said here or if you think something should be added.
Declaration of Boycott
This document is to inform EA (Electronic Arts) and, anyone else who wants to know, the offenses they have committed against gamers.
EA has consistently released games of low quality control. The newest example is Battlefield 2142. Bugs, existing in games upon release, going unfixed for over one year, have caused frustration to gamers all over the world. These bugs have caused server browsers to crash, menus to crash, loading screens to crash, and the game to crash during play. They have also caused games to malfunction, changing the intended way to play and thus making the game unsuitable for play. Multiple patches have left major bugs unfixed and often introduced new bugs. A current example is Battlefield 2.
EA has released games where menus and ideas have no common sense. Menus often take extensive time to load. Server menus lack convenient features that have been found in other multiplayer games for years. For example, it has been a long tradition of multiplayer games to have non-permanent game names. In Battlefield 2, game names are permanent. EA does not make it clear how names will be used or that they will be permanent. Thus many gamers were forced to lose their e-mail to an unwanted name. It also made it tedious to register with a new name.
EA has raised prices on their games for no good reason. In 2004, some game publishers started to raise their game prices due to extended development time required for programming new and advanced graphics. During that time, EA released games, notably, Sims 2, at the new higher price point, even though their games lacked new and advanced graphics.
We hereby boycott EA published games and any other publisher who shows this lack refinement in their games.
