It seems like EA, or Dice, doesn’t want their game to succed. It’s kind of obvious now that they want to do whatever they want, and they want to force us to like what they did. The changes they’ve done so far are so pointless and small, while real issues could be adressed by just turning a switch on, or are on the first page of EA HQ Answer since the first week. A lot of things doesn’t require a huge amount of dev time and are just QoL adjustements.
Bringing back full XP regardless the mode you play, just like the first two days and just like every first hour right after almost every big update (meaning the servers switch back to default mode), would make a bunch of player returns, which would be good for both global player count and PvP player count. And for Portal, it would encourage player to make fun experiences and boost hardcore. And PvE/solo players can spend money on a BP as well, if you let them grind it (fairly, not with a XP/minute cap or a penalty), so it’s also good for the business.
It doesn’t make sense at this point, it feels like they complete ignore the community. Either they’re beginners or they’re egomaniacs.
