Why do you release a new map 1 day early for streamers only?
Is there any logical reasoning for this? Why not just release it for everybody on the same day? It makes no sense.

@Sohsuh You could pay for Premium. Youtubers pay with their viewer base for advertisement. Simple logic.
@UP_LordPlumberAre you daft?
Simple logic is EVERYONE has access to premium if they want, whereas not everyone has access to the youtuber privilege.
Take your head out of the sand.
Everyone.... Sohsuh doesn't actually want any answers. Just agreement with original statement.
They release it early to streamers who 99.9% play games on easy or the AI removed after the players name to make them look like real players.
I have never seen so many players stand still or not see jackfrags for example.
It's to promote the sale of new season.
No but regular players are deemed less important by some it seem's.
They let streamers have early access so no stress on servers etc it's all planned.
Let's look at jackfrags for example bf2042 is rubbish and then a update he has early access to it's great again!!
7 days later its rubbish next update rinse and repeat.
- @Kona_uk Ah finally, someone with some sense.
You are slightly correct.
The real reason they do this is so that the streamers talk up the product before it's released to the public. This way, with most of their releases being terrible and this game being awful in general, people can be swindled into buying a battle pass because X streamer said that the content is good.
If they let the general public play it at the same time, then people would see that it isn't good before they see anyone hyping it up, making them less likely to buy anything.
In short, they use streamers to pass off bad content as good in hopes to get money from people who can't think for themselves. - @Sohsuh Holy mother of God, after like 10 people told you its all about marketing, you got it XDDDDDD
- @Sohsuh After a whole thread of people telling you that they do it to promote the game leading into an update you finally come to the same conclusion yourself as if it's some fresh discovery.
This is how new products and updates are promoted across the entertainment industry, both good and bad products.
Beyond that, you continue to seem wholly ignorant of this topic but absolutely confident you completely understand it. A sentient Dunning Kruger example that's found the BF2042 forums, impressive. - @UP_LordPlumber Good lord how can you be so dense?
- @edgecrusherO0 I wanted people to admit it was a scam instead of trying to come off as if it's just normal advertisement.
Only 1 person partially did.
The rest of you act like it's just a regular old commercial.
It's predatory and it's become a regular thing for all these companies who ship garbage content, and all the streamers continue to lie about the product because they want the goody bag. - @Sohsuh Sweet, I guess you don't know what a scam is, either.
Yes, this is routine, regular promotion for a product ahead of the products release. This happens with the vast majority of notable commercial products, including game updates.
The salt has shriveled up your poor little brain. Drink some water, hydrate, and use those little grey cells mon ami. Gr8 B8 M8 I r8 it 8/10.
- @Sohsuh Know what else it's happened with? Just about every major and mid-sized title released in the past decade or so.
Good of you to just wake up from your coma and decide this total non-issue is actually a really big, serious problem. - @edgecrusherO0 I bet you're surprised when someone pulls a rabbit out of a hat.
