they are probably doing the german voice acting right now...
@DedzigsThey are just desperately trying to get in any kind of news right now.
But what has this skin to do anything about the current situation!? Wtf...
If you want to do something duo to the current situation than disable just the whole game since it's about war. You would do many people a favor, EA.
@AEIDOLONE Situation on Ukraine is horrible right now! Clearly EA / DICE didn't plan this skin, they have everything automated. Horrible timing, but then again it's a war game? i don't even know..

Is DICE going to remove Boris from the game too?
@OskooI_007 Boris is born Russian, but left Russia to become No-Pat. hmm..
I don't think removing the Grin Reaper skin is enough. DICE needs to finish what they started and remove all Russian references from the game.
"Due to current events battlefield 2042 has been replaced with Kirby's Dream Land, due to the immediacy of the required change, the graphics have not been updated and will use original game boy graphics. We will update you further in 6 months"

Honestly it would make more sense to remove references to countries altogether since it's clearly neither US or Russian soldiers in the game.
Doing so would allow more creative freedom in what kind of vehicles they involve instead of having to stick with American and Russian armaments. Heck, I'd go as far as saying remove faction specific vehicles and creating more diversity between the options available. It would be a lot more lore and current event appropriate.
