The season pass is a thing on it own. But would the new State of play law(from 1st januari) in Europe not protect the user from faulty games/services?

Since they launches BF2042 as a service, we signed a contract(bought the game) for this service.

But since I can't launch the game anymore after patch in december(constant crashes after the loading screen), i can no longer use that service and they have not given me any opertunity to resolve my problem(last patch did not fix it and support have no clue other than, reinstall your driver). I should qualify to terminate or withdraw from the contract & get a refund.

Yep this is going to kill the game stone dead in Australia/New Zealand.

I hate to say it but the player base is dwindling as I am on PS5 central US location with crossplay on and am starting to see more AI in games when I play in the mornings before work. This morning half the teams were AI. I am starting to get a bit discouraged.

    Oh the joys of the wonderful MM, what a retrograde step for the BF franchise.

    @RayD_O1 That is my biggest fear that this news today put a nail in an otherwise fun game in my opinion. At least I have Gran Tourismo 7 to look forward to.

@MackTKau Do not worry, they will simply merge you in with another region and you will play on servers in the US, China or somewhere in Europe.

Enjoy playing a FPS with 100+ ping then. Sad.
