Players Add Pink Vader Mod to Star wars Battlefront 2 to Mock EA
In a move to diss EA Games, players mod Pink Darth Vader into Battlefront 2. This is in response to EA CFO Blake Jorgensen's stupid excuse as to why microtransactions in the game are not purely cosmetic. He stated:
"The one thing we're very focused on and they're extremely focused on is not violating the canon of Star Wars. It's an amazing brand that's been built over many, many years. So if you did a bunch of cosmetic things, you might start to violate the canon. Darth Vader in white probably doesn't make sense, versus in black. Not to mention you probably don't want Darth Vader in pink. No offense to pink, but I don't think that's right in the canon."
This excuse was quickly debunked when data miners found a hidden customization feature in the game that was not yet released. This revealed several non-canon skins. Sadly, however, Pink Vader was not included.
That didn't stop players from creating their own mod that allowed others to play as Pink Vader

Jorgensen should have known better than to challenge gamers.
Behold Pink Vader in all his fabulous glory:
this is why I play on console, harmless mods like these are nice but this is how the cheaters get into multiplayer and ruin the game experience for others trying to play legit.
Haha! I'm very happy about this!
So is it actually for sure a feature they were going to release? Or is it just something that's still there from when they were building the game or something?
It seems too ridiculous to be an actual feature but you never know with EA I suppose! :P
There is a hidden customization feature in the game but this is not part of it. This is a mod players created themselves.
Oh right sorry!
It was this bit:
"players found a hidden customization feature in the game that was not yet released"
that got me confused. Made me think they were actually insane enough to add that feature!
Whoops sorry bout that it does sound confusing. Guess I'll edit it thank you for the input.
No worries mate! :)
