IMO CCP should be feeling pressure like this as well. A lot of us have paid decent money into this game where we get constant delays on content, broken patches, practically no hotfixes and a dev team that won't tell us anything and a support crew who are about as helpful as bananas.

EDIT: Alright. Let me rephrase this, as i wasn't very clear with what I meant. I'm not saying that we should sue CCP for all their monies, I'm saying CCP should take this as a warning, Battlefield 4 has been a horrible since release and people aren't happy, and look at the results now. Yet we get results just like this consistently and CCP just laughs in our faces. I've stopped paying for this game a long time ago now. It sucks because I really do like the game, but CCP just treats this as a side project and jerk around a loyal playerbase.

If you bunch of whiners and "gimmie-gimmies" get my spaceships taken away, I will probably die of massive nerdrage and haunt you all.
I hope you like broken mirrors, dogs barking for no reason, and bleeding walls....

You go to a grocery store, buy some bananas. You see a sign that reads, "Avacados coming soon!" That sign has been up for three months, no one knows when they are getting them. Then, one day out of the blue, they have avacados. You take them to court, you bought their bananas, got what you paid for, and then rant about how they paint their ceilings, their walls, move the buggies around, or heavens forbid, change their buggies. Everyone wants a fully re-buggyspec at the new buggies, but they don't give in and move to the new buggies. Omni-Soldier Few are my equal in one of these specialties, and there are none who can compare in all of them.

Beren Hurin Onslaught Inc RISE of LEGION 1871	Posted - 2013.12.11 19:43:00 - [10] - Quote Quote: Publisher Electronic Arts is currently under investigation by law firm Holzer Holzer and Fistel, LLC for possibly misleading investors and analysts regarding the quality of Battlefield 4, which has been plagued with problems across all platforms since it launched in late October. There's a BIIIIIIIIG difference between customers and investors. I'm not sure of the makeup of CCP's investors. I think they are partially owned by some of the execs, a euro-telecom company, and have some other secondary financial stakes like loans in the company. I highly doubt any of CCP's investors would look at the state of CCP right now and think its in their best interest, or even possible, to sue them for what they thought they would have received.

On top of that, CCP is a privately-owned company. But at the very least, you can see there Annual Report here.

It sucks because I really do like the game, but CCP just treats this as a side project and jerk around a loyal playerbase. How misleading is your post despite your effort to clarify. 1. There have been constant hotfixes since even before the day Dust 514 ever reached open beta and still does to this day. You'll even see hotfixes coming tomorrow as noted in the link below: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=126665&find=unread 2. A Dev team that won't tell us anything? Explain the Dev Blogs and the link. I guess those don't technically count as "telling us", right? 3. The customer support may not be perfect, but at least you get a human to respond compared to what Gamestop has for customer support: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=124399 Quote: Update: 2013/12/06 CCP, you have made a life long customer!!!! Thank you for being able to credit the Elite Pack code!!! I will still keep sending emails to gamestop in attempts to get them to hand over that other code or refund my credit card. Please inform yourself before you go out and make inaccurate statements like you did. OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved?
