Even at a price 40% off the MSRP this game is still overpriced. It is a desperate reaction to keep the game populated. As steam charts indicate the player count is already on a decline. On steam there are almost as many Battlefield 5 players as there are Battlefield 2042 players.
I played Battlefield 5 yesterday and it was really enjoyable. I mean it has never been perfect and also had lots of issues that we criticised back then. However compared to Battlefield 2042 it almost looks like a masterpiece made by geniuses.

So what is now the “wow “ on this topic?
This is not the first game, that happened so many times before with other AAA titles get some % off 4-6 weeks after release and every time some people get upset.
For examples Jurassic World Evolution 2 is out for around 1 month now and you get 30% off or the new Guardians of the Galaxy also 35% off, both on steam
And as someone has written before its max 33% off on origin not 40% 😉
So as I said this happens all the time….nothing new

If the BF2042 game was good and more players coming online to play it as expected per business plan, then this game would not have gone onto a fire sale just 3 weeks after launch, especially as we have xmas/new year days just ahead.
Speaks volumes about the commercial disaster this has been so far.

I think Dice anticipated the giant *, that's why they included AI in servers, they knew.
