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.
@MDBuzzIt's not even the same DICE team anymore. They've moved on and created their own studio (forgot the name) so basically the new DICE is made up of mostly new devs. Kinda understandable why this game doesn't feel like a typical Battlefield game...
I can't even unlock some of my attachments now despite having the requirements lol. Performance is also worse since the latest patch, due to a new way the game caches shaders.
This game is a lost cause. I wish people would stop saying "Hey! It's getting better!" Because it really isn't...
250 pages, 2492 replies and yet NOTHING from EA/Dice about this topic. Thanks for * on the PvE players. You advertised this game as full progression across all game modes, but because of what people did in Portal with the XP farming, you punished the people that had absolutely nothing to do with that. Thanks for stealing our money and not allowing us to play the game they way that YOU advertised it. Thanks for disrespecting us and ruining a once great franchise. And thanks for not allowing me to find a game in AoW if I turn off crossplay. The ridiculously low player numbers and utter disdain that people have for this game is 100% YOUR fault. Turn full progression back on for the PvE players!!!!
Dice is very selective with their "listening".
Can't upset the share holders by allowing people to leisurely level up in Solo/Coop.
"Don't want to level up with cheaters and whatever else is left of this sorry playerbase? Well, Timmy! Time to pay up and Skip dem tiers!"
Especially pathetic we can't call any of them out on not listening to feedback when this thread is the biggest one of all. Beyond disgusting dev behavior.
