What player population?

@xXHappy_PuppyXxThe player population is already split with all the different game modes 2042 has. AOW, Exodus conquest, BT, Zero Hour conquest, hazard zone, and portal. That is 7 different modes that split the population. It might not be an issue if there were more players. I for one say get rid of some of these modes. If it were up to me I would just have conquest and merge AOW into portal.
And a large part of that comes back to the 128 player design. Hazard Zone is effectively dead, so can't really blame it for splitting the playerbase though.
If instead we had a rotation of maps for what is Exodus Conquest, Breakthrough, and Rush with servers that can run TDM/etc then it would be fine. As it is, some of it is entirely redundant due to design choices to not have community-ran persistent servers that just lets the player base find servers to play on. or just hit 'quick play' and get slotted into one.
I agree 100% we need payed DLC back
@CantGetRightSo your solution is to split it even more... ya that makes sense.
Becuase all those modes now would be split between new maps and old maps so now you instead of 7 ways to split the population you have 14. That's just with one expansion add another and you split it 21x
Again the issue is releasing buggy broken products. BF4,BF1,BF5. 2042 all needed months of fixs for core game issues.
Another problem is the frostbite engine. Every game studio out side of DICE has complained what a bug ridden mess it is to program for.
Live service is not the issue.
