true that ep1 was false advertisine because you couldnt do certain things.
and yes that is false advertising.
also the who price changing on cc was a little on the wrong side. (no company puts the price up on old items)
and there is alot of things that CM have done which are questionable.
sadly though if you try to take legal action, CM win.
how do i know?
well i sent them a letter regarding, false advertising, data protection act, and identity theft.
due to the fact that my account (which i hadnt played for 8 months) got banned, and the reason was, click and buy, after speaking to CM and click and buy, it seems somone used false card details and made an account in my name after gaining access to my game account. IDENTITY THEFT.
so i sent a mail to codemasters warning them of legal action. stating the law and how they are breaking it.
and suprise suprise.
17 accounts banned. and no reply from cm.
and they can do this because there are alot of special "loop holes" for CM to use when things go wrong, see the TOS.
really the best anyone can do is leave the game before they spend too much on cc, or get your account hacked,banned or lose items in game.
the servers will be pretty dead next month after AoC and ROHAN, and then by the time ep3 comes out i think more will leave due to Warhammer and WoW's WotLK expansion.
advice to anyone is.
1 - sell your in game items (pre order or very rare items) for gold.
2 - sell the gold for real money.
3 - then sell your account.
