So long, and thanks for all the fish (battlepass changes season 22)

So long, and thanks for all the fish.

So, as I understand it - you'll be overhauling the BP system. No way to grind or keep coins from the previous season, and reinvest it into a new battlepass. There's a $9.99 price, and even a split coming up in the next season - so we HAVE to pay, and HAVE to pay TWICE. That's it for me, if this is true. I'll be dropping out, after almost 5000 hours played. One heirloom. And shards for another one.

I get it that you need revenues to keep the game and servers alive, but this is just too cash-grabby for my taste. You removed the free battlepass for EA Pro members, and now you're removing even more.

It was a good run. I was never great. But at least people like me filled the lobbies and served as decent enough cannon fodder. Guess I'll have to find some other game to scratch that fast paced FPS itch I get.

    What happened!?! I can't seem to buy with Coins as was promised. Only cash. Should I just go back to uninstalling then!?!

    @hayhor On BR/Fragment only modes. 🤡 You know what, I'd rather just pay then and play Mixtape.

    @hayhor Have no clue. Saw a screenshot of the bp challenges on Twitter, it just said "BR" everywhere. Didn't pay attention to what the individual challenges were.
