To all the board lawyers responding to this thread.
Think before you post your support of Bungie's action on this.
Why would I say something like this? Now pay very close attention because this is important:
Allowing companies to arbitrarily remove content wenever they release a new expansion or DLC sets a very dangerous precedent for us, as consumers. It takes away our ability to continue to play any game they choose to do this with, as soon as they release new DLC. Today Bungie and Activision do this and remove large amounts of playable content from this one game and get a bunch of cheers for it from people who are too blind to really look at what they are doing. So lets look at tomorrow, when other companies see what has been done here and start emulating it. Now every time a gaming company introduces new DLC, they make it so the base game and all previous DLC we pay for is invalid and in order to play, you have to pay whatever they wish to charge for the new DLC or your existing game disk is now just another coaster in your man cave or gaming area. Now, whatever you want to play will be a pay to play service, instead of a game you can play a while, put away, then come back and revisit down the road like most of us do from time to time. What Bungie and Activision have done here isn't just the unethical removal of content from one game, its an attempt to set a very bad precedent for the future of gaming. Today, its one game but although these complaints on this forum are revolving around the current title, there is a lot more at stake allowing this kind of behavior to stand than you may reaize. Personally, I like being abe to go back and play games I've had for a while without having to pay for whatever bs dlc has come out since I purchased the game. i also really enjoy seeing all content I paid to play, still available when I put in my game disk.
Wake up board lawyers. Your arguing against this case is only hurting you and the rest of the gaming community. You supporting companies that behave in this manner is only going to make all of our gaming ventures cost us a lot more money in the near future.

Um... So, last I checked, I signed up for an mmo styled fps that only has one direction to go on its 10 year plan, and that's forward. I'm pretty sure I can still play all the old content. My Y1 weapons/armor are still there. Are there complaints for titles like WoW on their forums like these? Genuinely curious.
-
At the moment they are......
-
well written. This is what I constantly thing, but always fail to put in words. thanks. sadly some people will never learn and keep throwing money at stuff like Bungie/Activision.
-
I'm not posting in support of bungie I post in support of lawyers. Lawyers are bound by the ARDC no to file frivolous claims that they know are doomed to fail. I'm sorry you aren't happy with your purchase, but this isn't the way to seek a remedy.

I did my part. Filed with the BBB and the FTC. I've also been posting precedents for all the "this tos is solid, you can't do anything" naysayers. No ToS is 100% solid.

take a look at his post people, this is NOT bullshit.
-
Well met! Most of these people are children mentally if not chronologically. They cannot perceive how this, if left unchallenged, will set a precedence. Companies use what works and we can EXPECT others to follow their example if they make money with this scam. This is actionable with the proper rally point. I'm waiting to find out where/who it is.
-
Lol someone's never played an mmo before go back to cod
-
Agreed. Stop it in its tracks.
-
100% correct. Otherwise, I'm starting a car dealership using these principles and user agreements. I'll be rich and everyone that doesn't buy the upgrade wont have a car that drives.
-
I think ill start a Bank.
-
I third the sentiment!

Thanks for seeing what is going on guys. There may not be enough of us that do see what is going on here, at least to make much of a dfference with te number of blind followers uttering thei unflincing support of this type of move by Bungie, but thanks for at least showing there are a few people left in the gaming community with half an ounce of sense!
