Not including dedicated server is the death of this game

Let me correct myself, "Death of community servers". When BF5 came out with their "We give you what you asked for" server where we dident ask for what we got at all.... Not having dedicated serve...

@losthunter340 If you can't make a community server with these set of tools that DICE have offered to us with portal then you really don't have a community.

There are still BF3 and BF4 servers but they didn't save Battlefield there the reason on PC the population never got much above 50K daily peaks.

@ShevermiNI take it you are talking about BF1/BF5 with the numbers you give, perhaps if there was consistency in the BF franchise then maybe the players who are still playing BF3/4 may have moved up to the newer titles

    @ST1GUS The last year 2 years of BF4 before the release of BF1 daily player numbers for PC were 30K the total playerbase across all 5 platforms was around 100K.. People need to take the rose coloured rear view glasses off.

      @ShevermiN So almost 30% were on PC? that is quite a fair amount for just one platform, what were the other four platforms individually bringing in then? also if you added the PC players from bf4 who did not move up to bf1 how many then? just out of interest 😉

        @ST1GUSThere was a BF4 player count page up for years which clearly showed that PS4 and XBox1 had between 25K and 30K daily peaks, PS3 about 15K and Xbox360 about 12K plus the 30K PC players and that were the BF4 numbers for the last year or so up until BF1 launched.
        I remember it well because I ran the AN Hardcore 32p mixedmode server right up until BF1 launched ??

        After BF1 player numbers have been hard to find,   but console numbers I believe have been greater than PC numbers.
