Clans supported those maps for both groups. Live service, no browsers, crappy servers etc all contributed to killing of clan play in 2042. EA did this to themselves. BF3 and 4 were huge as they gave us what we want, now it’s what they want and it’s underwhelming. So yes to DLCs imo.
Theyve been killing clans since they started new Frostbite Engine in BFBC1, no support like BF2MC * they even launched with No Conquest for over 14months was crazy. Every title since we asked for it. No response. They built Battlelogs for clans but no functionality to use the private servers for matches. They then launched BF3 worldwide tour $150mill marketing budget. It even had Richard Branson Virgin Gaming $1.6mill Xbox tournament being advertised yet DICE refused to add eSport functionality. Within 12mths it was cancelled. MLG wanted to take BF3 4v4 on but DICE told them to wait. Even when EA wanted to use XBL Arena and enter eSports in a big way (remember E3 Madden $1mill tourny?) they put a new executive in charge of eSports who was supposed to be looking at Battlefield and their sports games and wanted to partner with Xbox rather than reinvent the wheel everytime. Never happened. Its all lip service promoting clans as all they end up doing is stacking public servers against randoms because they have no love, no functionality/support from EA DICE. Its the same every launch.
