Read in the Paper: Ea is going to add P2W to all their games

Well if people pay for micro transactions then why wouldn't EA put them in every game ? Anyways I don't agree with micro transactions in single player games at all but in MMO's like SWTOR then they seem to be ok , it hasn't gone P2W and I hope it never does. They know not to put P2W items in SWTOR , they would lose far too many customers than they would gain if they did it. It's even a risk to make this game revolve around daily's and weekly's , limits and missions , so no P2W here.

On a side note welcome back Andryah

Cheers,

BadOrb.

Not with hollow points like "You are lying", but with factual, visual proof. You can PM me for my personal email and I will give it to you.

You realize that's not how it works, right?

You can and people do. How idiotic can you be to think that every article is 100% true? Their job is to make an article that people will read and something that will sell. Its not to tell you the exact truth.

EA did say they would be putting micro-transactions in their games, and they already have. The Cartel Market is 100% micro-transaction, and most, if not all of it is for vanity (I say most because the legacy unlocks can be useful).
I am not an idiot, and I believe the things written in the paper.
I have been around along time, and can quit make the shift between fake and real.
So do not assume something you can't. It is disrespectful.

You provided an article.

The title of the article was challenged as fallacious based on its content.

It would then fall on you to demonstrate that the article provides reasonable proof.

No, it is the job of everyone trying to get closer to the truth to try to debunk everything at every turn. That's how we get to truth. If you make a claim, it's on you to defend it.

Simply calling peope 'bad' fails to do this, and makes you look childish.

That's not how burden of proof works. It's on you, as the person who made the initial claim to provide proof. Not on others to provide "anti-proof". That's why people don't prove unicorns aren't real.

No one should take up that gauntlet, as the structure of the contest wouldn't even work to disprove leprachauns.

You do not understand how burden of proof works.

On this forum: It is Guilty unless proven Innocent.

I give up, there is no point in going further with you people.
Thank you for your time and attention, I concede defeat, sinds there can be no win with you.

Anything bad said about EA needs to be debunked, turned upside down and attacked, assaulted, and even when someone proves they are right, you still debunk it.

You are slaves to this game, and will defend it until only the victors remain standing. Enjoy while it lasts, because it will be a hollow victory at best.

This is exactly what happens in the press. I have firsthand, personal experience with a local newspaper paraphrasing me in an article. They rewrote my story to make it look like a better story. This wasn't any mom and pop small town newspaper, it was the 2nd largest paper in Michigan at the time. I trust very little of what I read and/or hear in the news today myself.

But I offer anyone else a challenge then. Convince me with proof and debunk my claim and if you are right, I will come here and publically say you were right and I was wrong. I have no problems with that.
I have laid my claim out P2W will come to this game, prove me worng and I will consede defeat.

We have micro-transactions right now, and NONE of them are pay to win. It is all cosmetic. Tera has micro-transactions, they are all COSMETIC. Pay to win is not going to be added to this game. Pay to win is NOT in Dead Space 3. You have zero proof that EA will put Pay to Win in any game. NO PROOF! A single article from a single guy in a Dutch paper does NOT make it so. That article is distorted and shows a biased opinion based on zero facts. There currently is zero evidence to the articles, and your, claim.

Your argument is based off the opinion of one guy who is not even employeed by EA. He has absolutely no idea what they plan, and neither do you. Stop with the false assumptions. Pay to win is not going to come to SWTOR. If it does, then and ONLy THEN can you say you are right. It's pretty arrogant of you to say you are right based off of nothing but a single opinionated article in a newspaper.

That describes exactly your claim in this thread. You are saying EA is guilty and demanding proof otherwise. Or are you saying that's how you think these forums should be?
