well, to be fair, from the dev's phrasing it seems like these are EXTRA modes which weren't even advertised, so customers were not under the impression that they would be able to play these. If this is true, then honestly I think the customer outrage is a little excessive and entitled. If they didn't have i7s, then they got exactly what they paid and expected.
If they did have i7s, then because of Intel's funding, they got more than they paid for. Yeah, it's still kind of weird and just doesn't seem like a good business practice, but if this is true, then this outrage seems a little overly entitled.
Of course, if these modes were originally known, and everyone expected that they could play these modes, then this thing is indefensibly scummy.
- nkrisc 10y agoThat could be the case, it was hard for me to tell. Nonetheless it seems like a bad practice regardless: Person A with an i7 buys the game. Talks about the great features to Person B. Person B, with an i5, decides to buy to the game but can't find the features. What happened? Neither person has any idea.
