Celebrations are understandable for Arsenal's all-time top scorer after some iota of justice appears to have been offered, albeit from a video game company instead of a court system. However, the underlying issue is that the banning of a player that directed vile messages is celebrated whatsoever, instead of viewed as the norm. Were Ian Wright not a legendary FC 25 Coins in a country where the sport is an icon, this justice could have been missing entirely. While Electronic Arts finds itself celebrating for protecting an arguable asset to their franchise, perhaps extending protections towards all consumers would mitigate this behavior entirely.
It's hard to deny that there could be a FC 25 Ultimate Teamure where these "heated gamer moments" would never occur as acceptable behavior to players if companies immediately delete accounts that show an inability to play with others without spewing racist vitriol. If the expected norm for abusive chat was an immediate and permanent removal of privileges to play the title online, or an entire platform, then it would likely keep fans far safer online while mitigating further incidents.
Electronic Arts has won its case against a class-action lawsuit filed against the company in November 2020. which accused it of using predatory scripting in a few of its major franchises. The lawsuit has now been withdrawn, and Electronic Arts took the opportunity to reiterate that it has never used predatory scripting in any of its sports-related titles, and will not in the FC 25 Ultimate Teamure.
The lawsuit originated when three Californian FC 25 players stated EA was taking advantage of them using a patented AI technology called dynamic difficulty adjustment. This technology supposedly skews the results of matches in online games so players must rely more on digital card packs. These cards packs have always been the subject of controversy, and EA has been hit with other allegations besides predatory scripting, such as the company of secretly nerfing Ultimate Team Cards in cheap EA FC Coins. So far none of these allegations have actually been proven, and EA's latest victory might put some rumors to bed, at least for a little while.
