It’s obvious that EA wanted to attract CoD players — and at first, I completely understood that and had no problem with it
They don't understand that Battlefield is not CoD nor was it meant for consoles. BF2 was the last good Battlefield because it was on PC only and was firmly entrenched in what Battlefield should be. (not C0D)
And don’t even get me started on the challenges.
They’re an absolute pain to complete
The challenges themselves aren't too bad. What makes them impossible is that not only do you have to challenge yourself, you have to deal with the sweats, tryhards and K/D kiddies that are preventing you from having a chance to complete them. It's like challenging yourself to run a 4 minute mile. You will never be able to complete it if there's people constantly getting in your way. This is why we need to be able to spin up a solo match with bots in legitimate verified and unmodified servers
The overall pace of the game is way too fast, leaving almost no time for proper teamplay, even when you actually try to play tactically with friends
Again this is a result of EA being greedy and trying to appeal to everyone. I called it back when they released BC2 for consoles in addition to PC. The franchise started to get dumbed down and has been going downhill ever since. Battlefield needs to return to PC only and they need to quit catering to console kiddies and CoD fanboys and streamers and give us slow tactical gameplay
Maps, maps, maps…
Again trying to appeal to the non-Battlefield player base. Battlefield maps are meant to be a sandbox not some linear meatgrinder.
