What is peoples problem with the multiplayer though? (In this game or in general)
Why do you only want to play against bots?
Just asking out of pure curiosity as I personally find playing against bots to be about as exciting as watching paint dry - Spidder814 years agoSeasoned Ace
@BizzyVapingeach to their own mate we are all different. Some love pve, some love pvp. I myself love both. I mean I could say the same about why people watch braindead reality tv shows. I dont get them, I would rather watch a hot drink go cold
@Psubond here you go https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/news/battlefield-2042-a-beginners-guide this was published the day before the official release and would have been advertised as from all the info given from Dice/EA marketing etc

@Spidder81but Brian Crecente is a journalist and not a DICE employee so what he states in that link is not 'official' and open to interpretation.
- DominickB34 years agoSeasoned Ace@BizzyVaping Honestly I usually enjoy pvp, but the crossplay with pc people from my series x, poor game performance in big game modes, and just poor optimization in general have made me not enjoy the multiplayer at all. I liked the fact that on day one I could unlock everything in pvp so I could actually enjoy a smooth playing game where my teammates played the objective. If I could get console only crossplay or find crossplay off games on the series x I might be more willing to get back into multiplayer.
- DominickB34 years agoSeasoned Ace@Trokey66 You combine that though with all the other marketing, and on day one having full progression and unlocks you get a very shady and bad look from dice on how they have handled PvE. I played the first day with ea play and really liked that I could unlock everything, so I bought the game only for one day later the game change completely and no more progress in pve.
- Psubond4 years agoLegend@Spidder81 like @Trokey66 said, that is a game journo not a dice employee. like i said, i have no issue with PvE players unlocking skins (on hardest difficulty level) but you can't hold dice accountable for what a game journalist said. should/shouldn't be able to unlock is one argument. saying they promised is a completely different argument

I think we won't come to a consensus, because the main issue is, as I understand from all the messages, PvE isn't a real game mode for you.
I can understand when you said that nothing is locked because everyone can go to PvP mode to unlock stuff, besides you seem to defend EA/Dice lies, because they don't came with a 255 pages document with all the stuff you can or canot do in the game, but on the other end, you also agree that it's normal to cap PvE XP and rewards because it's unfair for PvP player that you can unlock stuff easily in PvE, and you understand EA/Dice move on that.
So, it's not locked because you have the choice to go PvP, the only limitation is the player and not the game itself, but keeping rewards way from PvE is fair. So, in the end, it's not a choice, because if you want the full progression experience, you have to go the so-called main game mode. But PvE isn't a training mode, and BF has built his popularity partly thanks to the presence of bots and the PvE. Remember that BF is a competitive game, not a PvP game, you can compete vs IA, playing vs real players is just a preference.
