The silence from DICE is probably the sign for us all to give up on this game and/or DICE all together.The communication at the beginning around launch was such a positive change from the BFV days where we would get little to no information. I had some hope for a better live service experience than BFV. After the 'recent' holiday break it seems they dialed it back to the point of basically being nonexistent. I can only assume this is due to the poor retention numbers and sales figures. I believe a little more communication with the community would go a long way to giving some hope towards a game franchise we all love. At least an official road map would give us an idea on where this game is heading.I feel like we've been given another trello board. Changes are coming SOON. They probably don't have the tech. On and on we go.

@HJ_Spacewar I honestly feel like they have moved on to the next iteration of "Battlefield" this one is a flop by almost any metric, and they know it.

@AdamonicAfter the open beta they already had enough feedback to understand that they had big issues and they must have known that the launch would fail hard.

The main reason why this game failed is it just fundamentally wasn't a "Battlefield" title.It is a confusing mishmash of popular trends and game modes, trying to appeal to all and ended up being universally dis-liked by nearly everyone.And yes, the lack of communication sucks.

Glad to see DICE is still lying about wanting to communicate and engage with the community.They've had nearly three full months and we've seen nothing. Monthly blog posts that are a whole lot of nothing, no information about what's coming in future updates, the "feedback loop" was a waste of time.Y'all talk a lot about wanting to communicate, but y'all are literally the ones in control over whether you do or not. Either admit that you don't want to communicate and engage with the community or, at the very least, stop lying and saying you want to.Because at this point it's a lie. Plain and simple.

@HJ_Spacewar DICE: Actually, the game is not dead and we really care! We promise! Listen to our words and ignore our actions just like we've ignored BF2042 and our community for the past 5 months!

@HJ_Spacewar yeah I should've worded it better, more like post-launch period. I can't imagine they envisioned such a massive negative response as the Steam reviews came in and crushed it. The bad reception stunted purchases beyond the pre-orders. Post-holiday the sales were literally gone. It was a top 5 title in November, 10th in December and then off the charts to almost zero in January and beyond. No one is buying or playing this game. March 31st is the next key date. We should know something in early April about where this game is going.
