They are the biggest culprit of this. I dont wish them luck in any way, especially given how much of a pt they take from developers.

Waste of time. This is an open and shut case. They'll have to pay and stop with the geo-locking practice. The EEA is pretty much set in stone and non-negotiable.

And here I was hoping to finally be able to buy uncut games here in Germany...


This is still good news, but iirc Black Ops 2 also had match making based on your CD Key, so if you bought a russian key, you mostly played with russians. This means, that also the devs have to keep in mind not to make such decisions anymore.
