[QUOTE="Worf, post: 139637, member: 1047"] There probably WAS an uproar. On the iOS side that Apple cracked down on them which is why the Season 3 pass is gone. I suspect the huge run of Gottlieb near the end of Season 2 pretty much did it, because season 3 started off with a bang. And I guess people (who are not on these forums) look to see that it's just a scam - they offer the first couple of "good" tables, then saddle the rest of the season with crap. And I suspect it's why Farsight removed it from the other platforms as well - Apple is one of the easier companies to deal with billing wise, but doing it for Google Play or Valve or even worse, Microsoft and Sony. And Valve/Microsoft/Sony will be the new ones joining the ranks for season 3. Give some bad or unwanted tables and the same thing that happened to iOS users might just happen to Steam/Xbone/PS4/PS3 users as well - they'll call and complain about being ripped off. Season 2 is done with, Season 3 is just starting. Release a bad table and it's game over with season passes. But release tables one by one and then offer it post-season, people can't complain about being saddled with crap when they know what's in the entire pack. [/QUOTE]
