Well, I appreciate the update - but many players remain burnt from November. As it’s now May, almost 6+ months after the game was released, and to learn that one single map, a few weapons, and maybe some vehicles might be dropping in the upcoming first season is wildly disappointing. The fact that some portal weapons may be brought over feels like a bandaid solution.
In comparison, Battlefield 3/4 had multiple themed maps, server browsers, effective squad join mechanics, and loads of weapons both within the first few DLCs all completed within six months. That’s not even discussing all the content that was provided at launch.
As a longtime veteran of the series, it’s painful. We were sold an idea, invested in the premium edition on good faith for a complete product with loads of content. My core group of Battlefield friends, many of whom have played these games since 2010, are no longer interested in poorly timed updates, paltry content, and broken promises. We can’t even play together for more that one round before were all dumped back into the lobby, only to find a way to get 5-7 of us together again. These games should be getting better over successive entries, but instead we few ardent Battlefields fans are celebrating scoreboards and in-game voice chat.
