    Re: EA Staff

    I didn't like your analogy tbh.

    It's more like a a pub landlord or bartender giving free drinks to him/herself or a friend... It's perfectly fine. Where does this actually affect you?

      Exactly, I'd unlock all the weapons in a heart beat if I had the chance.

      I enjoy shooting things, I don't enjoy being forced to grind away to access the content of the game I paid for.

        Yeah agreed, and like I said before, it's not like they are using something that they didn't give all the rest of us. They don't have a massive electro-cannon, they are using weapons in the game that all the rest of us have. They can only use the one unlock at once, so what's the difference from getting killed by an unlock from an EA guy, than from an unlock from a LCPL?

          What they should be doing is testing the weapons on a password protected server with only the ea staff guys there. That would be them testing it.
          The fact that they are on a public ranked server with unlocked that they shouldn't have is not right and makes them look corrupt.

            How does it make them look corrupt exactly? What advantage do they get over regular players? Don't forget that they have the same weapons as us, and can only equip one unlock at a time.

              How do stat packers affect/effect us...? They don't but they still get their accounts wiped.

              What's the point of unlocks then?

                they don't have the rank for the 2nd unlock. Why should a private have all unlocked weapons just cause they work for ea? Pick and choose any weapon they want when the rest of us who play fair are more than likely stuck with 1-2 guns unlocked. They have the advantage. If they can have all the unlocked weapons.. or more weapons unlocked than they should.. why can't we? And working for EA doesn't justify it, nor does, cause they can.

                    I can't understand the problem of the people who work for the owners of the game, having more unlocked weapons. It's like saying that even though I am staff here, I shouldn't get a special user title, because it's unfair on the others that don't get it.

                    It's a perk they get for working for EA, big deal.

                      It'd be like a bartender not having a few free drinks Ok I'll drop that analogy now...

                          why?

                          How about the 5 million accounts with all their weapons unlocked? Would you complain about their asses? at least 20% of them are privates, so what?

                            There is no point. The higher your rank doesn't give you any more of an advantage with firepower than a Lance Corporal.

                            Most people realise the best weapons to choose from now, and thats what people are going to unlock (why unlock a **** weapon when you can unlock a good one). The further up the ranks you go, you'll find they are more or less using the same weapons. People forget that once a private kills you with a default weapon, they can pick up your super powerful weapon and start using it. Kind of defeats the aim of climbing ranks.

                            The only advantages over newer players is the experience they have, and the fact they have a pretty picture next to their name. They know how to act in different situations, use certain weapons, use certain vehicles and the most advantageous points on the map. Now, the pretty picture will scare off some (SOME!) new people, because they immediately think that because their medals are larger and more shiny than their own, that somehow it makes them better. This isn't the case at all, I'm a Lance Corporal, and I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I can play with the best of them and win. I just don't play as regularly as they do.

                              I can't believe people are nagging over this. Take a good look at this. Look at his ingame time, look at his enlistment date. You're going to tell me he/she plays on a competitive level? You're going to tell me it's common to find him/her in a server? That he's spent over 300 hours playing frantically? Also, if you'd follow the various "Worst Kills/Victim" you'd find that it's mostly EA employees amongst themselves. Probably from test servers.

                              How is it corrupt for them to use their testing accounts to occassionally play online? You're making a storm in a glass of water. These are people that, apparentely, are rarely spotted. They use their TESTING accounts. How do you expect those that are involved in the testings to know how to balance out the unlocked guns (assuming they're even going to touch them...) without testing? The G3 is severely innacurate, the M95 as well.

                                I believe their accounts were fixed. And you calling me stupid only shows how little intelligence that you have. Don't attack me for no reason.

                                Nobody should have perks cause they work for a video game company. As for the bartender thing... they don't get free drinks unless someone buys them it. They get a discount... that's all.
