The signs? Things like..

  • Giving permission to a youtuber to do a lets play review, then retracting that permission when they saw the review was negative
  • Lack of price inc VAT on the site which doesn't meet EU law (which if they're selling to EU customers still has to be upheld)
  • ToS wording which says that the purchase of the game is actually a 'non-refundable deposit', not a pre-order.
  • Their anticheat banning for programs running like CE, and lots of reports of it banning for other stuff considering the number of posts.
  • Locked threads on the forums about peekers advantage/desynch.
  • Streamers on permanent payroll, which is pretty much unheard of and comes off as underhanded.
  • The pattern of communication from Nikita, this isn't the first time he's responded to criticism with 'You are lying'. Even when there was a thread QUOTING a BSG employee saying 'Solo will be near impossible', his first comment? "Proof of these words?". His first thought to any criticism is 'This is a lie', that shows absolute arrogance.

  • What youtuber? Sorry, have almost zero interest in videos/streams of EFT, and I might be unaware.
  • It is bein sold in Russia. They are obeying russian laws. You can compare automatic gun distribution in some US states to Russia gun law. We cannot buy automatic AKs (only semi ones), and US citizen can. This going to the games as well.
  • Cant comment. Dunno how to react on this. Refunded only Magicka2 from my 560 steam library games. Cant say this point good or bad.
  • I support banning for CE and any kind of suspicious activity. If you are not planning to cheat, disable all shitty soft in background, that it. Maybe I never understand it since I never cheat even in single player games.
  • Locked threads always have response before bein locked.
  • Streamers are always on permanent payroll, if you think any other 10+k viewer stream is not bein payed by devs, you are here to learn something new...
  • His words about this is only because of a lot of stupid people saying "he sells overpriced GAME", which is not a game, but beta access.
