@KalashDEMFair enough (though I kept it relatively on topic in accordance with received responses). The main problem preventing them from posting a roadmap is because they are stuck in decision purgatory. Their higher ups are pushing hard for hero-shooter microtransaction machine and their devs are telling them that the current state of the game doesn't support OG battlefield nor their bastardized hero shooter attempt.
@-DFA-Thump See... I wish they would just make up their minds with what they wanted to do with this game. Make it a hero-shooter, fine but drop the BF title cuz this isn't BF. If Dice wants to develop this into a long term hero-shooter, battle royal with match making to compete with Warzone... fine. Lets not abuse the BF player base and tempt other player bases by attempting to blur the lines between BF and BR. They'll simply fail in satisfying both groups.

So it's basically them (as tone-deaf as possible) forcing their plan to the dissatisfaction of players until they realize it's a lost cause and capitulate enough to "save some hope" for the "future" of the franchise.

I'm afraid that there will be a future for them, but not the future that we hope it will be. I'm anxious what they come up with...time ( already took too long) will tell.
@-DFA-ThumpThese companies are never investing so long term, you give them too much credit.
Their marketing strategies + the (lack of) proper long term support only indicate that they are always aiming for the short term fast cash in and then go to the next game to hype. They are like someone who chews the chewing gum just the few tens of seconds it takes for the initial burst of flavor to go away before spiting it out and taking a new one
