TTK Class Action Lawsuit
I'm doing research on starting a class action lawsuit against Bungie and Activision for how they sold The Taken King via false advertisement, cut content from players who didn't purchase TTK without warning or word, overcharging oversea players over twice as much as American players by ignoring currency exchange rates, and overpricing a DLC which content was nowhere near worth the price. There are some solid things that TTK will automatically land Activition and Bungie in court, mainly false advertisement and the currency exchange rate. If I can get enough people to back me up here, so I know I can get some supporters for the class action lawsuit, then I will go ahead and file the lawsuit and post it if it's accepted and in the pending stages. I was robbed of what I bought and I want it back for free, because I paid for it.
I am also going to add in this class action lawsuit the abuse of Bungie's EULA. To use that to build a set up to lock out customers to repay for content they already paid for is going beyond reasonable use of EULA. Having one model of business written, then using a different business model to generate revenue is illegal. There is nothing Bungie states in it's EULA that this is a subscription based game and people who don't pay every 3 months will be locked out. Big mistake. If successful, this class action lawsuit will be the gaming equivalent of Abercrombie and Fitch being sued by their employees of their policies and terms that were unethical.
Check out my other forum and share this shit!!!!!

14 RepliesTo 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.
