You may be incorrect about EA caring about what's said here and the impact it has on their revenue. See below.

Live services – new monetization streams
Live services are one of Electronic Arts' best-performing revenue segment, reporting a one percent year-on-year-growth compared to 2023. This is hardly surprising, as gaming companies aim for players to engage with their games and services over longer periods of time, and purchase additional content designed to provide value top layers and extend and enhance gameplay. EA’s most popular live service is the extra content purchased for the Ultimate Team mode associated with its sports franchises Madden NFL and FIFA. The company stated that FIFA 23, EA SPORTS FC 24, Apex Legends, EA SPORTS Madden NFL 24, and The Sims 4 were the top revenue drivers for 2024. However, in 2024, full-game downloads were the segment with the biggest revenue increase.
There are a lot of things that could be done better to increase revenue. That's hard to do when players completely lose interest in a game
for various reasons. There have been so many changes to the game, and sometimes too much change is bad thing especially when we live in the
era of "instant gratification" where most people don't want to work hard to get anything.
A player plays a certain Legend, gets good at using it accordingly, with set squads mates even...and then they nerf or rewrite how that legend is going to
operate on the battlefield, and people lose their poop over it. It changes everything. Same goes for the weapons, drops, shields and on and on.
We all know how bad the hacking is, and frankly...after watching all these controller players play, and watch reticles gravitate towards the target with little effort and get huge
damage hits, is it any wonder why so many Pro's have openly voiced why they switched ? Its a no brainer. It just wouldn't have happened if the advantage was not so obvious.
I would prefer to have the option to NOT play with an aim assist controller player. Its a simple ask, but that will never happen.
I would spend money on the game, but we always seem to be waiting for the same dam things to be fixed that never happen. Just more wrenches thrown in to the mix.
Legends abilities being changed all the time, Weapon nerfs on some, but then another is made way OP. An example is how everyone now is flying around with Mastiff's
running and gunning when you would have never seen that before. So many ppl playing Gibby and Newcastle because of their OP buffs. When's the last time Bangalore ever got a buff
and why is it that people seem to see right thru the Bang smoke and are able to track you , from distance. Its ridiculous. Lifeline gets to fly??? and has a shield you can throw down that people can just lob grenades over the top and waste you all ? Its Gibbys shield with the top cut off....oh joy.
I dunno man, subtle change is ok, but wow, feeling the need to change so much at once is over the top. Whatever happened to having beta tester servers for that before implementing it??
Nope, now its like 'HEY, SURPRISE..we're gonna throw a big wrench into things, then sit back with popcorn and watch the mayhem ensue !
