Just for those "there are only 30 pages" guys - in the mass effect 2 forum alone are close to 160 pages full of complaints and tons of locked threads about Bioware's failed marketing.

i thinks what pissed my off the most was the fact that on my profile it states that i have "X" amount of token to use for bids when in reality i cant. I mean its like telling a fat kid that he can have a whole chocolate cake but then putting it out of his reach

Personally I couldn't give a crap about the contest itself, it is the misleading advertising that bugs me. But for those who are saying that you can't hold a contest in more than one country I will slap up a quick example of a gaming company that does just that, because people spewing apologist nonsense without any facts to back them up bug me.

I didn't think there were any laws to stop them. It's just EA being lazy or selfish then.

I've been on this forum for roughly 2 hours. We are on page 32. Where the F**k are the moderators saying sorry or giving an explanation?

now im even more pissed off!!
thanks for this Sloth, it just further proves how little they care for the community and just how much of a ****ing marketing ploy this is to go and buy the DAO expansion pack (as it offers the most points) and other recently released (all EA btw) games.

if this is to mark 15 years of BIOWARE why are only the games released by EA relevant???

[Syrellaris]

I considered EA / Bioware to be one of those developers that would include the entire community, regardless of what country they are from, within there contests.



Seeing that they decided to only include a small portion of the community in it, shows there utter disrespect for there customers and loyal fans. It is sickening.



They atleast need to say something about this, or issue a apolagie to all of us and close down this farce of a community event.

[DragonRageGT]

At least, we all got to participate in this. This didn't exclude anyone! We have the power!

ITs not that the laws "stop them" it is that those laws can make it extremely costly in time and/or money by making the company AND contestant jump thru loops.

It all peeked my interest and have just been surfing a little. Take it all with a bit of salt.

Considering theres no actual profit to what they are doing I am just guessing they wanted to avoid all the things that would of cost them a pretty penny.

ITs a crappy situation in general but nothing to get your blood pressure up over.

Besides, as far as I now it's not just a contest, it is a kind of auction. That could complicate things even more.
