Fully agreed @Psubond ,
Though the CTE should have been reinstated for the BF2042 game development already back in autumn 2020 to have made the impact it should, to ensure a working game and functionality that would work for the players come launch date in autumn 2021. Everything in and around BF2042 was rushed, so despite we even provided very clear and consistent feedback to EA/DICE since spring 2021 it did not appear to make any change what so ever to the final game on release 6-8 months later. With such attitude, then CTE would be no help either.
To me personally, CTE is however the most perfect way to interact with your customer base and get them even more bonded to your product and community long before final commercial launch. Its like expanding your R&D department and you don't even need to pay them anything for it!
Even just small symbolic gestures like being awarded soldier tags goes a long way!
