This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Was that battlefield 2, or battlefield 2, the second 2?

[–] DaddleDew 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The 2005 game. I had paid full price for the game and enjoyed it for a while. Then they released the expansion pack BF2:SF. The players who owned that expansion pack had access to more powerful weapons which they could use online against players who didn't have that pack. Essentially turning a paid game into a "pay to win" format. I since then haven't given EA a penny.

Huh. I guess I got the pack with both but was always such a casual player I never even noticed. I remember the games having two separate sets of servers.
