I wonder if the Evocati NDA is crafted and reviewed by the same crack legal team that put together the TOS.

Haha MoMA was seriously in here defending the shell companies as typos? Yes a normal, decent, non-scamming company, with good customer service will reply to a CIG email with: "We're sorry but our sister company RSI handles these kinds of requests so we forwarded your request to them! Have a nice day!" and not with: "It looks like your purchase was from different company that we have no association with. This here is CIG and we don't sell any space ships here. Bye". gently caress off MoMa.

CIG would have found it if they hadn't completely lost all control over their branding and web presence. The only people doing quality work are the companies they contract stuff out to, and I'd love to know who is still with them right now. Maybe Agent knows something. I was pm'd an interesting story last month (on another forum) regarding who was modelling the ships for the promo videos, but that story dated back to a year ago.

Sometimes you have to spend $50 to get such an item, and sometimes $500. This is completely different from gambling because.... (lobbying check from EA has cleared)... it's all for in game items! Very different. Feel free to have your 12 year old enjoy the fun

Every scratch off lottery ticket I buy has things to scratch off, with numbers or pictures underneath each. I pay for the experience of scratching and looking at pictures. Occasionally I can sell those pictures to someone for more than I paid for the ticket. Therefore, not gambling.

Instead of being something you just do inside of your account outside of the game, the loot boxes there literally drop from the sky WHILE you're playing with others, adding in a lot of exciting sounds, lights, and drawing attention to you. Other players then watch you open the box and slowly reveal the exciting content inside. Literally re-creating the dinging of slot machines in casinos to attract people to them when they see others win. NOT a casino.

The $7 Million Typo During his life and with respect to his estate, one of Andy Warhol’s legal advisers was Edward Hayes, a Manhattan lawyer and a former district attorney (and, apparently, the real-life inspiration for the character Tommy Killian in the book Bonfire of the Vanities). One of the assets in the estate was Warhol's Interview Magazine, with a circulation of 160,000 by the time of Warhol's death. The estate sold it based on a down-payment with the balance personally guaranteed by the buyer, in a promissory note, payable not to the estate, but to a company called "Andy Warhol Enterprises Inc." Hayes dissolved the company a week before the promissory note was signed but neglected to ensure that the personal guarantee was made payable to the estate. In the result, it was made payable to an nonexistent company. Hayes said it was just a typing error but the court struck the promissory note which then became unenforceable with the balance owing to the estate, some $7 million, lost. A few years later, Hayes dodged a bullet when a New York judge inexplicably dismissed the case against him by a former client for malpractice based, in part, on the allegation that Hayes slept through his former client's deposition (called on examination for discovery in Canada).

This is a real thing that happens. I'm playing my first person perspective storming of the D-Day beaches, then a crate gets dropped out of the ether, and I get Mountain Dew Dorito points if I stand there and watch it being opened by someone else. That's just some really bizarre poo poo. https://www.kotaku.com.au/2017/11/call-of-duty-wwii-players-can-watch-each-other-open-loot-boxes/ quote:Players with a box to open pop smoke, and a crate falls from the sky, opening wide for all to see its contents.

I remember being on the Beaches of Normandy and the most exciting thing I did that day was call a supply drop that gave me a pair of glasses, some new German boots, a bra, and a silencer for my Luger. Never been more excited for my high-speed-low-drag lifestyle than I am now!
