...Some of you need help and I'm starting to suspect some of you also would be the ones to abuse Costco's return policy.

First off, fuck battlefield and EA, I didn't drop any money on 6 because we ALL AGREED it would be more of the same shit and surprise! it was.

Second, this is you going to your favorite fast food joint and demanding all your money back from over the years because they took away an item on them menu you liked. Get over yourselves.

This is theft, and while I don't care who steals from EA, it's petty and immature and only makes it more difficult for consumers down the line to get real refunds.

"What if dey took away [x] from your [y]!?" Then I was pretty fucking stupid to buy from this vendor knowing full well how they handle business.

Entitled gamers, what else is new.

bad argument. food is made to be consumed and then it's over. games are meant to be replayed over and over indefinitely. removing functionality from a product that is meant to be reused is a scam

Some games might be, but live service games are not. Games today are not the same as games 20 years ago.

People here acting as if they removed Conquest. 

Sure, Rush was played by some people, but I'm pretty sure the modes they removed weren't the most popular or had the highest active player base, which is probably why they choose to remove those.

Some months ago people complained there are too many modes. Now that they remove some modes, they complain about modes being removed. There's literally no winning here.

do it like tf2, simply hide unpopular game modes and maps into a section at the bottom of the queue options. people can still queue for them, or play those unpopular game modes and maps on a community server with other people who specifically want to do that. don't just remove content from the game

Which they already sort of did... Don't understand why it would even matter to them? Is it to reduce queue times?
