The game has a T rating: Content Descriptors: Alcohol Reference, Animated Blood, Language, Suggestive Themes, Violence
Other: Online Interactions Not Rated by the ESRB (Windows PC, PlayStation 3)

The game itself has foul language, if people don't like it, they shouldn't play. If they don't like to play a game where others can critique their performance (especially in a competitive environment), they shouldn't be playing a game where there are other people with differing opinions. Play a single player game, or just play with friends. You can't expect everyone everywhere to agree all of the time, that's unrealistic. Companies shouldn't be held to ridiculous standards that it's playerbase and their behaviors are somehow reflective of the company. Just give the option to mute and keep moving.
