Yall really didnt like BFV?
This is the biggest surprise I have gotten comming to these forums. Out side of crashes my only gripe with BFV at launch was the ammo/health crates not showing on the maps when they got dropped.
"The bionic arm woman trailer with the fortnite main characters killed BFV pre-orders along with Dice PR coming out with woke comments.
Then when the game came out, the shift towards a more hardcore style with less ammo, non regen health and no 3D spot with soldiers blending into the backgrounds killed the playercount.
It never recovered from that."
That original trailer did upset slot of people I do remember that, its sad that people couldn't accept that.
Or the "mature" BF audience couldn't handle a little more mature/hard-core features.
And I never had big problem with people blending in but I have a good computer and am an above average player.
BFV could become an even greater game with additional 4 maps. Eastern Front expansion pack might also include new vehicles and weapons. Devs and publishers have to redefine their roles at this point. The main focus on Social Justice Warrior ideology in the shooter genre is as much desirable as Human Rights activists in an illegal weapons factory before lockdown. It is a shooter game, this does not include any form of correctness, except one - shooting. Having an unfinished and partially broken game that resonates with terrible gameplay decisions is a big no-no. That, in addition, pushes suitable at this moment of history agenda is a disastrous move. Players are here to stay for great gameplay, not further monetization gameplay-wise havoc. Rightful for the time being agenda usually turns into a Soviet-style propaganda machine.
Pushing for monetization while completely ignoring gameplay mechanics is harmful in the long run. Seriously, how profitable might be antagonizing the loyal player base by pointless money-driven changes? That`s one of many main reasons why the player base is rightfully angry. And will continue to be if the changes won`t turn into radical 180 degrees course.
I checked the comments, I did not even start bashing the franchise before the reviews hit hard.
Shortly put. EA should stop playing politics and improve finally gameplay experience as God Allmighty rightfully commanded. EA should stop pretending like it is being oppressed by the extremely dangerous keyboard warriors like me and SubReddit`s page while the game launch is not ahead of schedule or stable by any means. And there is literally no love letter except for one finger (You do know which one and where exactly) pointed at the majority of customers with Surprise Mechanic as the main drive for this hell of a ssshow. And right now publisher wants us to believe that DICE is solely the weak cog in the process. I mean how full of surprises someone has to be to ignore all of this.
