You know, EA is a pretty shitty company. They killed the Ultima series with their horrific handling of Ultima 8 and 9, they killed a lot of good studios that they bought (latest being Visceral) and they're as greedy as fuck.
Case in point, Battlefront 2. Enough said. Just google Battlefront 2. I don't even have to bother linking anything. Just google Battlefront 2.
But a short while after Battlefront 2, EA released the beta for UFC 3 and well...it's as bad, if not worse than Battlefront 2 regarding loot boxes. I mean, if you buy the loot boxes in Battlefront 2, you've got a distinct advantage over players in multiplayer. In UFC 3, buying loot boxes can turn you into a god amongst men.
Apparently, the entire progression system in UFC 3 is tied to loot boxes and you can buy upgrades to your basic moves in the loot boxes. So yes, your basic punch move can be upgraded to turn you into an unstoppable killer and in a fighting game, that's a huge no-no. There's a reason why people say things like 'Basic Batman only, no items' in Injustice 2, a game which does something similar.
So fuck EA because EA is the shit and triple fuck EA because I know they're going to kill off Bioware in the future.
In short, fuck EA.
