Everything you have both written and made reference to is astounding, I applaud you for your time and thoughtfulness in this article.
It just goes to show the level of contempt these gaming franchises have for the player base now. Loyalty is gone, in fact, they probably think loyalty is some form of fast food from Uber.
But what this does show is the sheer level of arrogance displayed by these organisations with an attitude of "Pump it out whatever state it is in, they will swallow it up, never mind finishing it and "don't worry about the lack of content" and oh, keep pushing the sale of shiny trinkets and pathetic skins, again they will swallow it all"
It does question the thinking of companies, and especially in these economic climates we are in. If they release something as bad as this in the next game then they are done forever I feel, and yet we all know the shareholders will push for a release as fast as possible no matter what the consequences are. The game will fail, and they will all scratch their heads and wonder why, and we will be blaming both the game developers and producers equally.
Shares will take a slight hit, profits will be down, but they will still have our money so will not care in the slightest. Useful idiots are what we have become, or if you prefer, Cash Cows, nothing more.
A huge shame that companies destroyed such a once huge and respected platform and industry leading franchise. I suppose it just goes to show the short-sighted backwards looking times we are in now.
When the next title comes out, I will wait for lots of reviews, and watch "actual game play", not cinematic trailers, which are usually NOTHING whatsoever like what you will actually see when playing it, before deciding what to do with my money.
Anyone that Pre-Orders the next BF game is just plain silly after this terrible game.
I don't expect my thread to stay here for long, the people that moderate these forums are very touchy about anything relating to the truth, however, they also state that they do feed-back things to the developers, well, how about feeding this thread back to them because everything written in this thread is both Truthful and Factual.
