We were told we would get normal XP and weapon progression through portal. That was a huge selling point for me. As others have stated, facing sweats and professional gamers will never be fun for the casual gamer. We are literally chum in the water full of sharks.
There is no reason why casual gamers can't have a solo / co-op mode, and why are we trying to bargain for reduced progression? Fix portal so there's no exploiting. Allow full XP and weapon progression on verified portal game modes (like you ADVERTISED) and be done with it. Problem solved.
Integrity. Wish EA had some. Instead they're laughing that they scammed the casual gamers out of millions of dollars. That type of bait and switch should be illegal.
