It's his right to complain. If anything, this will make EA/Bioware act faster.

It seems to me that alot of people from the "Retake Mass Effect" movement aren't willing to actually take any steps to get an answer. You should defiantly hold a company to their word. If they lied about a product then they should answer for it. I don't care if this makes BioWare go bankrupt, they shouldn't have lied to their customers. Maybe it would be a wake up call to the industry that they should treat their fans right, not blatantly lie to them.

This IS the appropriate, "civil" way to handle disputes with businesses in North America.

I filed as well, I don't expect anything of it, but it felt good to do.
This is like somebody firing shots during a peaceful protest. WTF are you doing!?

Okay come on now. That's a little much. The ending was goddamn awful, but it wasn't ILLEGAL.
Starting to think I should toe out of this place....you guys are getting a little cooky with it....

EA received a lot of BBB complaints lately, but it says on the EA BBB page that they're not BBB accredited, so they probably don't give a damn about it..

I will be waiting until the end of next month to give Ea a chance to decide what to do but if I don't hear anything by then i will be sending in my own complaint.
The only reason i bought the game was because Bioware lied. That said I will give them a month announce that they are working on a way to make it right.

Is this not taking it a little far? Legal action?
GUYS. THEY DID NOT DO THIS ON PURPOSE. This is not like somebody who holds you up and steals your money or somebody who spreads false lies about you.
I agree some of the devs comments seem a bit suspect. I agree that if you say things like what they said then you should deliver them. But I honestly believe that somehow, someway, BioWare thought they were giving us the game they promised us. They just didn't execute on their vision the right way.
Legal action is getting ridiculous. I support the charity drive, hell I even donated to it, but this is going too far. Let's just stick to reminding BioWare that we are their customers and that we aren't happy with their product.

I don't quote Mitch Hedberg often, because it devalues them. But...

And this thread is more proof as to why I think the online portion of the fanbase is a joke. It perfectly illustrates the entitlement issues that it has.

Yeah but what good will that do? I doubt anybody cares what BBB says about EA, the only time people check BBB is when they hire a contractor or something like that..

What a joke. You don't like the ending so you complain to FTC. The feeling of entitlement of some people makes me shake my head. We are talking about a video game here. People act like it is the end of the world and if their individual demands are not met then Bioware lied to them. This is stupid.

I don't care if you are selling cars or ic cream no company has the right to lie to people about what they are selling them.

I want to once again urge the OP and others who have done this to withdraw their complaints before they cause Retake damage.
This is a bit too much.

While I think that this course of action is unnecessary (BioWare is already feeling the pressure), it is by no means an invalid or improper course of action. At worst, it is premature because we should have given them some time to respond. However, this does ensure that EA/BioWare knows that portions of the community recognizes what courses of action are avilable to us, should we not be granted a proper redress of or grievances.
To those opposed to this action, I understand your hesitance in endorsing something that could result in an actual court case. It reminds you of idiots who sue McDonalds for making them fat, or because the coffee is too hot. However, the pursuit of legal channels is not the knee-jerk reaction for a lot of us. Most fans simply thought the ending was bad, and BioWare should feel bad for giving it to us. It was only when we started to review the promises that were given to us during the marketing work-up that we then realized the full scale of the offense we had been subject to. Legal action should never be our initial decision, but neither should it be considered an invalid course of action once we have legitimate claims.
