Army of Two EU Con

bcstereotype · 08-03-2008, 08:17 PM

I have to ask - what confused and moronic idiot decided that EU gamers cannot play co-op with friends across the pond? EA has once again contrived to con gamers - there is no warning on the box or ANY information on the matter whatsoever. What the hell is the point of Xbox Live if you can play against anyone in the world, as long as you're not playing Army of Two?

Good job, EA! GREAT JOB! Now give me my money back!

Heh! C'mon, guys... they haven't even got the regional servers working properly yet. Don't want to tax their tiny minds with getting things working on a global scale!

I agree, though... what is the point of PSN and Live being global communities if companies as big as EA are going to region-lock their games' online play?

I think they should at least include a choice as to wether your game search includes US players.
I personally would switch it off as i prefer less lag and also find that alot (no offence to anyone here) alot (NOT all) of the more juvanile US players i come accross in other games are terribly racist and rude.
For me right now there are plenty of UK players online and i have only had a few laggy games.

However i can see how people with freinds overseas are frustrated by this, and we are mature enough to make the choice ourselves which is why you should be able to choose.
