Constructive criticism from an old Fan

In terms of a line of accounting, any labor charged to the BF2042 charge code is a loss at this point. Everything related to this game has been a loss for EA and DICE. They went to minimal manning after the train wreck launch and never looked back.

They had to hit a certain number of sales to make a profit and they came nowhere near it. So once that occurred, to prevent even more losses, EA pulled the funding to DICE and only left enough to fulfill legal obligations. So DICE had to figure out how many devs they could devote to this title with so little funding. Then you have studios like Ripple Effect, which was supposed to be a huge part of Portal and yet we literally have had nothing new in Portal outside of pre-developed content.

So things like the Class system, which seems like a massive undertaking probably took a couple of devs a week or two to complete. All-Chat, just a few lines of code and bam. 

Map changes? So minor that each one could be completed and tested in a few weeks, yet it has taken months per update and even those were still under par.
