Default Chicken and the Egg

Hi Gordon,
Dice made a smart move and learnt from the past when it comes to making sure they listened to the community (more) after BFBC. You are doing a great job you are literally everywhere on the sites.... great comes.

In saying that to say we can get servers once sales numbers are there I have a little difficulty with.

As follows we pay just as much as anyone else but get inferior network service.

Secondly since this is an electronic only distributed product, for PSN, we need to purchase either via a credit card or via a redeem code.

The credit card is only for a small percentage of the market and redeem codes are not available in AU/NZ.

So I don't see that we will be hitting any realistic sales targets to get local servers. Even reducing the price of the game would not help as the mechanism is not there for us.

I would suggest selling redemotion codes online via debit cards....nb PSN does not accept debit cards.

All the Best
Mike
