  19 pages and I couldn't read them all but did anyone suggest running some AI missions in the MA off peak? I know when I fought them in the AVA they were tough although you can get them to auger like noobs.  :D

    Would that interest the Euro players? Having something to shoot at is better than flying around the lonely skies.  :airplane:

It is good temporarily solution to keep current players entertained but will not fix the root problem of bringing new players into the game.

If easy mouse control with F3 view and gunsite is implemented together with F2P option it will start bringing big numbers of new players into the game.

Security of my credit card with HTC is probably the last thing I will ever be concerned about.

I would actually be more worried about giving my card number to Steam.  They're a far larger and much juicier target for hackers with ill intentions.

Each company can do whatever they want with their customers but there's nothing _illegal_ about breaking the EULA in many countries. In fact the limitations posed by the EULA are in themselves considered illegal in many countries.

ripley perhaps you misunderstand sarcasm sometimes.  go to court and complain that you breaking the EULA and getting banned is not legal since the EULA arent legal.  it was a joke dude.

Oh I failed to see the humor there but I got your point. In fact I would support making certain things punishable by law, such as online game cheats. They're detrimental to the game community which reflects on happy customers and from there directly to sales figures.

Most companies treat caught cheaters way too lenient. Public humiliation and lifetime ban would be appropriate imo.

In most arguments the wisest ones catch the moment of no return soonest and stop arguing. Something I often wish to do more myself. But sometimes I fall for the trolls.

Yeah but then they wouldnt be able to buy the game again, and again, and under new names keep cheating and keep making the game maker money. Thats why the rules are so Lax. They want to make them look just stringent enough to appear like they give a damn yet dont want them that stringent that they cut into their money flow.

Be glad Aces High never had to deal with that drama. BF4 has so many hackers I think they ban together to protect each other and shush community anger.

Only if those provisions in the EULA are illegal.  However, if the provisions of the EULA meet a country's legal criteria, the EULA will stand in a court of law.  We've had many people try and sue the company I work for, claiming our EULA for our online games is illegal and we've won each time in court, both in the US and in various EU countries.
