At leastm they should allow people to create their own server. But no. I wouldn’t trust them any more, that’s a shame. I totally agree with mikeiver (#27). If I want to play online, I probably should choose some other games from another compagny. Otherwise, I might be unable to play 1 year later…

They are pushing to move and design games from something you buy and own, to something you are privileged to play for the period they allow you to play it.

Next move will be that there will be no way to play the games offline at all and all action has to be done online.

And you’ll be shelling out xxx$ a year for every game you wish to play.

I understand the economics of it all. It doesn’t change the fact that it is an unsavory manner of doing business and trying to drive more sales. I do not play any on line games that require me to pay for access to servers nor those that lock me into the servers maintained by the producers of the games. If I can’t run my own private server then I am not interested, period. There are allot of great titles that are still very popular and have a dedicated following, UT2004 for one. Epic will never sell me another game after the UT3 alpha they sold me as a working platform. I would suggest that you show your anger at the blatant move by purchasing game by other development companies and deprive the EA of the profits they hope to garner from this crappy move.
