Funcom blocks Russian players, without explaining the reasons, violations or something else. This is pure racism from their company. I demand an explanation.
All official servers.

sounds more like a error not racismā¦ also that would be nationalism not racismā¦ read a book man.
āNationalism is an ideology and movement characterized by the promotion of the interests of a particularā . Before answering someone, please think carefully and read what you write. I write about racism
At the risk of being rude, maybe itās Steam? Our Lord and Saviour Gabe of the Infinite Hats has a tendency to perform wonky wonders through Steam more often than not.
Also what proof can you provide that it is āallā Russian players are being blocked? Your link is all kinds of unhelpful and provides no relevant information for anybody to work off of.

Maybe if you guys didnt openly promote cheating, there wouldnt be a reason to region lock you. Russians are almost as bad as Chinese in this regards. However, it is sad that all the good people from both nations suffer because of these bad apples.
The aggression in your post shows that you are here to make your demands and you care little to even give Funcom the chance to explain. It could be simply an error or there might be a very good reason why it was done.

They removed the ability to use Conan via Family share just yesterday. All the players that got banned from Officials now canāt cheese the ban with Family Sharing. They have to rebuy the game.
Maybe itās that what he means.
I donāt think thatās an excuse to punish a whole nationality. Most countries promote behavior some other country finds distateful, yet somehow we find ways to cooperate, negotiate and talk despite our differences. Punishing all Norwegians because some of their ancestors went on Viking raids isnāt okay in modern Western legal systems.

I donāt know the details, but if over 50% of the users from a specific range of IPs is ruining the game for the overall community, that would give them enough of an excuse. Some of the trolls will just switch to VPNs, but this combined with the removal of family sharing, means any trolls would have to rebuy the game each time, which will at least help reduce the number of trolls.
Plus, they still have access to private servers, right?
No, it does not. One of the core principles of Western justice going back to the Roman era is that the innocent should not be punished.
Yeah, yet another not-very-impressive move on someoneās part, that.
While that might sound like a good thing, Iām flabbergasted that was ever possible in first place. It seems a failing of the Family Sharing system itself to allow sub-accounts access to something the root account has lost access to.
But itās not a good reason to remove Family Sharing from CE. At this point noone should be surprised though - thereās a trend in how these things go:
Problem: thereās an issue with a small subset of players
Solution: letās punish everyone, whether they were ever part of the problem or not

I donāt think they ever lost access on the root account. They would family share the game with a throw away account, when it got banned, they would just make a new throw away account, and family share to it instead without ever actually playing on the base account.
Hey @invader302030 ,
Thereās been no region lock. Should you want a lengthier explanation, please do contact us privately and weād be happy to look into your particular case and provide an explanation.
Thanks.
