Soon I hope. Maybe they can balance the game, unlike the company who's job it was.

Might be fun to play with you guys at that point.  It'll be free, right?

EA is giving refunds for the game at support.ea.com/chat


All you need is your CD key from steam.

40 min wait I hope you are telling the truth.

According to this article EA is offering one free title from their digital store instead of an actual refund. Still a pretty good deal though.

I'm waiting in line also.  Getting a free game isn't so bad.  Not sure what I'd grab though.

If you bought it before 7/15 all you get is a rock, AKA a 25% off coupon.

Bah, coupon.  Better than nothing I guess.  Maybe I'll grab Medal of Honor since I canceled my pre-order.  15 bucks off is still better than full price.

These are all reasons I don't ever give EA any of my money any more.

You should probably be mad at Realtime Worlds. Besides, you're supposed to hate Activision now. EA's been a pretty cool guy.

EA's gotten a lot better. A LOT. And compared to what Activision has become, I'd rather have the old EA than the new Activision any day.

[Didzo]

I remember when people were telling me to buy this.

[Luinbariel]

Good that you didn't.




I fucking hate this game so fucking much I don't even care if it's free forever.

Hey look at these broken dreams and aspirations

About to delete it off my hard drive forever since it didn't do so automatically through steam. Thought I'd dump some "memories" in the meantime. The screenshots are saved as bitmap and I'm too lazy to change it, let's hope photobucket resizes decently:

Dump truck shenanigans:


More dump truck shenanigans:


Examples of my SLI issues with the game:




Primary color squad go:


10-win streak:


Somehow I think Hek is good at this in real life:


I can't even come up with a description to do this justice:


Physics engine was not without its share of bugs:


People quitting out of missions makes you feel pretty cool:


And this is a repost but perfectly crystallizes why the playerbase sucked:


I've also got a .zip full of our dumptruck shenanigans. PM me if you want it.
