@JOGAGATYA I'm not 100% sure you're correct. Yes there are those that like all that bunny hopping, sliding jump happy BS, but this game proved it's not all about that when it says "Battlefield". There is a reason the player numbers are so low and it's not just all the game breaking bugs...it's the face they tried to put on BF. I'm willing to bet if this game was BF1 like in classes, movement and netcode, and UI but had no bunny hopping and sliding, no "heroes", still had mediocre maps and crappy weapons balance, and even ADS issues, you would have more players and lots of them. Not nearly as many as if the game was on the money, but much more. It's really the fact that this is a BF game in name only that has run most of our brothers and sisters off...with the craziness of trying to make this into something it's not.
@Echo6EchoI think there’s enough of the older crowd who don’t want the Apex COD experience, and want to continue to play the BF style it was known for for 19 of the last 20 years. They’ve had their chance to try it, and it obviously DID NOT WORK. They didn’t do the other games as well as the other games have, and they didn’t do their own game as good as they could have. So basically they have nothing. Normally when a leader screws the pooch as hard as this one has, they’d be out on their *. Want to make a BF game people want to play? Read these forums, listen to the passionate opinions of your player base. (It’s possible to separate the actual ideas from the silliness, takes some time though) The road map is there over multiple past games and if they’re willing to listen, they could make a game we’d play. Of a Clan, we had over 100 in the BF division. Many would come back. They bought 2042, and they walked away. That’s on Andrew Wilson. Talk is cheap. No preorders, no Gold or Ultimate, show us the game ready to go and maybe, just maybe, we’ll give you our hard earned money.

EA CEO has $19.3 million dollars of "work to do"...🤔
2020 - $21.9 Million
2021 - $39.2 Million
2022 - 19.9 Million (EA CEO cut salary approximately 50% due to negative shareholder feedback)
@DeepSixxxxGeez, even with a fraction of that money, any one of us would never have to work again...
It shows where the priorities lie and they are not with the customers.
It is clearly more about how many people one manages to sway into buying at launch or to pre order instead of what the product turns out to be.
