Disney *AND* World Gaming Community *FORCE* Electronic Arts (EA) To Remove *ALL MICROTRANSACTIONS* From Star Wars BattleFront II - - Time For Us To Do The Same To Activision/Bungie
I'm sure you all know about the World Record "DownVote" Thread on Reddit about Microtransactions in EA's Battlefront II ... Well, thanks to Disney (owners of Star Wars IP) and the Gaming Community, EA has removed *ALL MICROTRANSACTIONS* from SW BF 2. All rewards are earned by in-game skill and play-time.
This is unprecedented as EA is the largest game company (publisher/producer/developer) in the world. Even more than Activision (contracting Bungie atm); so we as fans can overtake this. We can start our own rebellion against Activision and Bungie and win just as handedly. The truth is out there. We have won 1 war. We can win another...

4 RepliesThe .8 metacritic score is my favorite part. The problem with removing them now, is the game was initially live with them. Which means there are people who probably 50, 100, 200, more dollars worth of them. Those people now have a distinct competitive advantage and will continue to have that advantage for as long as the lootboxes are taken out of the game. Meanwhile. now are they gonna charge people for the DLC's? Before the microtransactions were gonna pay for the DLC's.
