Borderlands 2 - PETITION! [EDIT: WE WON]

Good thing I never pre-ordered it then. But seriously, 2K has just went from being a good company to a horrible company like Capcom and EA.

while i agree that this is BS from the Publishers,you guys should know that they do not care about your silly petitions

We won! :] Read thread again ;)

See, what did I say? Petitions ALWAYS work.

damn I like these kind of threads they're like the cinema, sitting in my chair with some popcorn reading your posts and shit...!!!

How is this win?
All they done is apologized and offered a refund. And you could receive a refund from Steam for any pre-purchase before the game is released.

Message from 2k.

"Thanks again to K900 for all of his work. K900 spent a lot of time and emails and had a number of late nights ensuring this thread was updated and I certainly appreciate it. Here's the update, and we thank you for your patience as we worked things out.
2K Games and 1C Company have updated the PC versions of Borderlands 2 that are purchased from both retail locations and via digital distribution in Russia, the Baltic states, and CIS territories. Consumers in these countries will now receive a bundle that contains both the 1C Russian language version of Borderlands 2, as well as the 2K Games worldwide (English, French, Spanish, Italian, German (edit: and Japanese)) version of the game. This gives consumers in these countries the widest range of options to both choose their preferred language and play with their friends across the world. Though the 1C and 2K versions do not support cross-version play, consumers can install both versions and have the option to play each. Additionally, Borderlands 2 Season Pass and DLC content purchased in these territories will contain this bundled format content. We thank customers for their feedback as we continue to work to provide the best products we can offer worldwide."

"...to investigate potential support for additional languages and options for our customers..."

Why the hell didn't they sort out all these languages before the release??? I'm sorry, I would still be annoyed if my language wasn't supported. We're dealing with a a BIG multinational company here, not someone new to the industry with a tight budget and limited audience...

Glad it worked
