Battlefield 4 targeted in class action lawsuit

4.7
Law firm Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP has filed a class action lawsuit against Electronic Arts alleging that the company issued "materially false and misleading statements" regarding the quality and playability of its troubled first-person shooter Battlefield 4.

Battlefield 4 has seen numerous patches in the weeks following its release, addressing major issues ranging from client crashes to save file corruption. The suit highlights the PlayStation 4 version of Battlefield 4 in particular, claiming that "players of Electronic Arts' games were being subjected to multiple glitches and significant crashes when attempting to play Electronic Arts' titles on PS4."

The Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd suit marks the second time a law firm has targeted Electronic Arts over Battlefield 4 this month. Previously, Holzer Holzer & Fistel, LLC launched an investigation to determine whether EA misled investors regarding Battlefield 4's projected impact on company revenue. The results of this investigation have not yet been disclosed.

Individuals who purchased EA common stock between July 24 and December 4, 2013, have until February 15 to contact Robbins Geller for representation in the firm's class action lawsuit.

Katsumi You had it coming EA.. I'm actually not surprised


Exactly, Also FIFA 14 Is still hardly playable! They need to slow down making games and not rush them


That is why I don't play EA games.

All games and consoles are getting rushed out, Without proper testings. Just look at GTA V It was full of bugs and glitches for a few weeks and still is!! Also the Xbox One was also rushed just look at how many bugs there are

Everyone's had to put up with the poor quality that is Battlefield 4. I don't see why they're taking this kind of action considering DICE have stopped production of everything to try and fix BF4.
