The Need For Speed account had enough

I support that. more companies should have the balls to shit on people on twitter
Yeah just wait until you have an issue with your mortgage or child’s education and this behaviour has become so normalised that your mortgage manager or child’s teacher responds with ‘I ain’t reading that bro’.

It’s not hard to not act like a thick nob head but apparently it’s difficult for these companies not to employ these people.

People are really supporting EA over somebody who's making a valid anti consumer complaint?
Call of duty let you play the campaign a week early with certain editions what's the complaint about that? Hell, physical bonuses are long dead and in game bonuses are largely irrelevant after the first few hours at least this seems like something tangible of being able to play early.

social media guys these days are meant go act "cool" and be versed in "memes"
so this guy does most likely exactly as told due to the image the game itself is trying to sell too.

also anything is better than corporate speech.

the fact that you instantly come up with such an outlandish scenario makes me wonder ngl

Amazing isn’t it?

Especially when EA frames it as “You asked and we listened”. Like sure, your fans are asking to play a couple days early if they preorder your game.

now I want the account to shit on you too as you lack the comprehension to understand the tweet just as much as the guy on twitter that they shit on

Kinda hilarious lol

Early access to the full game by buying a more expensive edition is something the fans wanted eh? 😂😂 Fuck off EA
They were referring to actual gameplay without non stop cuts, what people had been asking for. 🤷‍♂️

I still find it odd they advertise the early access though, as I'll play it even earlier than those that paid for the most expensive edition with my game pass ultimate sub and I'll get a 10 hour trial, what will give me plenty of time to decide if it is something I'd like to grab in the future without dropping £.

EA the winner of multiple worst companies awards, is dressing up their shitty preorder promo as if people were asking for it.

Twitter follower calls them out in their shitty practice, and the Twitter account acts like a juevenile.

What am I not comprehending here? Oh wait, the promo was always there? Haha! Hilarious!

What’s hilarious is you defending this stupidity. It’s teh guys job to act cool n stuff. He’s doing what he was toooold!

Dumb.

Dumb.

the tweet was about a gameplay trailer not the preorder. they listened and made a gameplay trailer, is what they were saying

the preorder stuff was just additional promo stuck into the tweet.

in fact the twitter account adressed this when shitting on the guy, giving you now no excuse to misunderstand it at all, unlike the guy on twitter that they shat on.

very funny indeed imo

If you can’t see how “you asked and we listened” would be taken for the preorder promo mentioned directly underneath, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Poorly constructed tweet.

Okay I'm confused, this isn't the first time this happens for me. Is the original post in this thread missing? I only see replies and it seems like the context and first post are missing, it's really strange.

Personally I don't like super friendly attitude from companies on social media, because I know it's fake & forced, but being rude to someone is even worse. It's just best to avoid any response instead of getting involved in shitposting on an official account.

Ask me about my fanboy energy!
Need for Speed used to be fun


With both EA and Sega's arcade racers dead, we are now stuck to comparing multiple sim racers.

I laughed. People here act like everything always has to be god damn serious or else you're a kid or moron lmao.

As someone who worked in sales for 10 years, knowing how hard it is to keep a smile all the time, I do enjoy tantrums like this.

Yeah whoever is running that account has my sympathies.

That job isn't paying enough to go into twitter arguments with some smoothbrain about EA's business practices.
That job also isn't meant to go into twitter argument.

The job is literally to just post an update when there is a new update. It's very much Hello Fellow Kids territory.
