Wait, nope: zero times. Seriously, who actually disconnects from the net before gaming? When you're at work and supposed to be I don't know, working?! |
Good thing everyone gets free Internet, right? Oh wait. 25% of AMERICANS don't have Internet access at all. Imagine what it's like in a poorer country where it's also very likely that you pay for how long you are connected or how much data you transfer. Yeah, that's right, for some people it's going to cost additional money just to play this game because that's the only sort of service even available to them.
Seriously, people from 1st world countries are painfull ignorant of how the world actually works. Hell, in many/most 1st world countries people still pay for specific bandwith usage. You think that's a justifiable additional cost to play a game you've already bought and paid for? I don't.
You do not have the right to never be offended.
