Re: lack of maps - content and overall effort towards Battlefield

@WedgeTornado There doesn't really "need" to be. I'm just wondering if DICE is ever going to spin the marketing machine back up and push to get more players into the game, both new and returning. I'd have thought it would be with S1, but that didn't seem to happen. Hoping they're planning for a big marketing push for S2/3 or something, because the game really, really needs more players to be able to fill out even just the four AOW modes and featured Portal modes, to say nothing of player-run Portal servers.

    The map comparison is one thing, now do a weapon comparison. We will hit 1 year since launch near the end of Season 2 and there is a good chance that in that entire year we will have gotten 2 new maps and 4-5 new weapons.

    I appreciate that CoD Warzone is free, but isn't it amazing that they reportedly lost about 30 million players since last year, but still have over 70 million regular players. I'd be amazed if 2042 has players in the tens of thousands.

    With such low numbers, it is hard for EA to justify spending too much on 2042.  As others have suggested, they will meet their obligation to deliver 4 seasons of content and that will be that. Drop kicked into the bin, and start all over again with the next game. But do we think they will have learned anything from 2042?
