Disappointment

An annoying and disappointing problemAn annoying and disappointing An annoying and disappointing problem

I've only had issues with matchmaking once since launch, played a good 6hrs on multiplayer without any problems. and the one time it did drop i had serious lag issues due to roommates. otherwise. I think this first week is the same as every games first week,
a time to have the fans find any problems and get the devs to fix them accordingly. have faith, i am sure that things will get patched up soon

To be honest, I was happy just to get into 3-4 games. With most BF games, it takes a week to play multiplayer...LOL

[/quote]thats true....I was able to play online last night..took some doing, but got it to work.....besides, I'm a patient guy

having said that I can wait for 'em to work properly, does not mean we should have to....I'm not dissing on the game or the developers really, I'm more addressing the attitude of just letting it slide...and not with just video games either....as consumers
in general, we should be demanding to get what we pay for in every aspect of our lives

20 years ago, you walk into a fast food place, and the staff was polite and courteous, you got your food which was usually done right and you ate....these days, walk into the same fast food chain.....cashier gives you a dirty look because you made her put
away her iphone for a few seconds to take your order....which you find out was screwed up but only after she damn near pitched your bag of slop at you...same thing with customer service in general almost anywhere you go...it's as if people just stopped expecting
good service, and just accept whatever they're given.....customer service people (XBL, Verizon, Dish Network, credit cards, etc etc etc) hate me, because when I'm dealing with customer service...I'm expecting service, especially if I'm paying for it.....my
company is very service oriented, and I demand that those who work for me do the best they can.....do a good job and people will tell their friends, do a bad job and they'll tell everyone they encounter

-

bottom line, I believe people should be not just expecting, but demanding better service for
anything they pay for....those who provide those service need to take more pride albeit earned pride though

[/quote] on that same token, people now a days will whine and moan and sue you over anything. what happened to just accepting that things are not always perfect...even the things you paid for? I suppose because of shady deals and some companies really ***
over consumers...we all got jaded and started "demanding" perfection which led to the "extended warranty" scams. Now everything has to be perfect or the customer sues you...ugh...it's dumb...If I un-do the harness while on a rollercoaster and fall out, breaking
my neck....do I sue the amusement park for making it too easy for me to be an idiot??

I just think folks are losing the thick skin we used to have before sunlight was bad and seatbelts and motorcycle helmets were dictated by law. I say, you wanna ride without a seatbelt...go ahead...the strong survive.

Why is everything with you one extreme or another? It's like, I'm almost with you and then you go one unnecessary step too far!

"What happened to accepting that things are not always perfect?" I'm with you...

"Now everything has to be perfect or someone SUES YOU??" You lost me.

You go off on these completely unrelated and undefendable side-missions where you basically prove with your own words that you've missed the point of our conversation completely. We're not talking about lawsuits here. We're talking about businesses DOING
what they SAY. It's called accountability, and it's a word that most people do not get the meaning of. We have the right to complain about a product not working as advertised, especially when the fix is incredibly simple. If you don't want to hear people
complain, I would advise staying away from MESSAGE BOARDS! That's like going to the ocean and complaining that you hate "getting all wet and sandy."
