Did you notice they reduced the number of featured from 5 to 3 as well.
They just realized they don't have enough active players for all the game modes lol.
Then they remove a staple of the BF franchise, Rush. Ridiculous.

@edgecrusherO0i know and they still are bleeding players. I didn't think it could get much lower than it has but week over week, they still are losing players. That also means nobody is buying the game and that will come out in the next earnings call which is going to be pure comedy. EA won't even mention BF2042 next time, which would be on par for how they treated it since December.

To put more focus on current available Featured Experiences, we’re reducing how many are featured at any time from 5 to 3We’ll now also rotate them twice a week (Monday and Thursday), instead of once
The first new rotation goes into effect this Thursday and will Feature 2042 TDM, 1942 vs 2042 Conquest, and Rush Hardcore- edgecrusherO04 years agoSeasoned Ace@CantGetRight I love how they frame it "to put more focus on current available Featured Experiences" translates to: "We don't have enough players to fill existing featured experiences and need to centralize them into fewer experiences at once."
Because that'll sure solve the population problems instead of like, you know, fixing the game and engaging with the community. - 4 years ago
It's unfortunate such action had to be taken to keep such a current title playable.
Dice/EA, it will require considerable measures to mitigate damage to the company's image. Rerelease Bad Company 2. While it takes work to port it to newer generation consoles, it's not as much work as making a new game. You already know it will be a huge success without the cost or effort of creating a new game from the ground up, and most importantly: it gives the fans something to enjoy and remember what made Battlefield games great in the first place. You would benefit both from the improved public reception of the franchise and maybe something you can study about why that game is a favorite of your most committed fans. What you learn can then be replicated in future titles to keep this from happening again.
