Not sure what you reply to, but i still thing some of what you are saying is not right.
(also, sorry for bad English, I'm Danish)
Yes in the newer years it has shifted focus to do PVP only. But the first few games like BF1942, BF Vietnam and BF2 was more like 50/50.
You could do a PVP, but it was not as easy like now days okay i was a kid at that time. (I'm 27, soon 28) and it was easy for me to start a PVE match.
In BF1942 and BF Vietnam I did only play PVE. First then BF2 come out i did play it in MP. And yes it was sometiems fun, but so was the PVE part.
It was pretty nice to get home from school start with a few match in PVE to learn stuff, and get better with it. and then go for PVP.
But after BF2, the basic change game engine and i think that play a part in why PVE got removed. (Not sure, but my idea right now then i write)
Anyway.
With Portal, the finally bring that part back to the game, and many of us maybe older players wanted that for so long.
Yes PVE will most likely always be easier then PVP. But the main part of Portal is to get the power back to players.
And play the way the want. I really love that part of it.
I can see why atm the have removed/lower XP from portal with to many server be started for XP farm.
And I'm fine with that for now, but i still want XP For playing portal. Because the normal way is very limited for now.
And with portal it is up to the player to pick how to play, so i could go another way and say you don't need to play PVP to get the same xp.
you could also just go for PVE and get easy XP. but no you like to play PVP and that is fine, i do also sometimes.
But in PVP we get cheaters and players in generel who like to find errors and bugs and use that.
on the other hand we get team work, and nice people, so is a 50/50 for me in PVP. And with the way 2042 is different from normal class.
I will say for me, i like the idea of getting back to some PVE action again. but i always want the feeling of getting something out of it.
like if you didn't get XP From PVP, i don't think that many players wanted to play it.
So all in all, the can't make every single one of us happy, but with adding portal and all the stuff that brings.
I do think we get pretty close.
Btw. Also remember that after level 100. There is nothing more to unlock. Every single level after is just to show off the time spend.
and some have the time to grind for it, and others don't have the time. (jobs, familiy etc)
The did also make the kill count for getting skins and upgrades. The skins part is for me just cosmetics. I don't care how people get it.
some will love how it looks and others don't care. most times i die in PVP. I just want to respawn quick again.
the upgrades you're right. It will be easy to unlock in PVE. and hard in PVP.
But i still think it should get unlock in Portal, some will unlock it easy, and others will fight hard for it.
and does who do fight hard, will also feel a bit better with themself.
At the end of day, we all do love how Battlefield as a game works, but we are not all the same in terms of play style.
Some of us like to use vehicles all day long, and others only like to play CQB. some want to play snipers, others like to be support class.
I do sometimes like to play semi-hardcore, but that is not a part of the game. but now with Portal we can all do what we want.
And I like the idea of having it both ways. Yes if you want the PVP with all the good and bad parts.
It will for sure take longer time to get all unlocks and skins, but you personally will also like how you got it all.
Others don't like PVP to much, because the bad part can shadow all the good part out, so the want the PVE instead.
So yet again, Portal is just the best way for how the can please as many as possible.
