Following a 20-year-old formula of sucess, is a lot of work?! Looks like their still confused about what a Battlefield game is all about.
JMHO
I now only lurk occasionally on this forum to marvel at how far the mighty have fallen with this franchise.
I’ve already said this in previous posts but I’m repeating myself as EA seem to have problems understanding their BF player base as shown by the embarrassing player count and repetitional damage to the game.
As much as I love the franchise and willingly pre-ordered gold/ultimate editions with premium DLC I won’t be doing this for the next game no matter how good the game may initially look.
Remember how you said the beta was an early fork in game development? Until the final game is in the hands of gamers and we can all see what’s included you won’t be getting a penny.
I haven’t played the game since before Xmas and frankly I don’t care if it’s improved or not I just cannot face BF2042 and that’s all on you and your merry bridge burning.
tbh I’m looking for another similar game to get seriously into but the console market is a bit sparse atm. I may even drift back to COD which is saying a lot.
Your empty words mean nothing
- @LordVader666 it's also like they are intentionally antagonizing players by only "allowing" players to play in the manner in which they want the players to play (referring to having 24/7 maps for some modes and not others)

literally region, map, game type, player count, server name search parameters.
They have now outwardly stated that they missed the creative mark with this title. The problem is that someone or everyone thought going the Apex route was the right call. If you look at some of the management/directors/producers involved, you will know exactly why they went this route. If they could, I am sure they would've added rainbows, unicorns, customized lipstick and fingernails, and that is not a joke. Go look them up.
The game has a player count 1/30th of COD/WZ and that can go as high as 1/60th at COD's peak. That is absolutely insane. BF is not in direct competition with COD, but it does take players away because it is comparable. COD has always been more popular (for some odd reason), but back in the day, BF was a lot closer.
The biggest issue I see is that you can't play BF like you want to. This game needs a Server Browser or it will die by Season 4.

No server browser in AOW is such an arrogant move to make and a direct F U to the core playerbase.
I get that most players probably used quick match in previous games but they still gave the core, who keep the game alive between releases, the browser and map rotations.
To take that away and then tell us we aren't getting it back while telling us they are fully committed to supporting 2042 is insulting.
On a related note, a mod on the lowsodium2042 reddit sub who claims they work for Dice attacked the server browser from V and said they don't work because people 'have' to queue on servers and can't play!
He's also defended taking away Exodus Conquest 64 so everyone can get a chance to play different modes.
Interesting peak in to the minds of the people who work at Dice.

The only reason some people cant play some modes is because they REMOVE the friggin option to do it!
Wait, i reread what you wrote, was his excuse to FORCE people to "get a chance to play other modes?!?!"
Post a link please, i want a piece of this action
