Lots of features missing were available years ago!

Game settings,custom maps, LAN, split screen, private sessions, editable/change voices and characters.

Lots of functions,features,content are removed to satisfy casual audience these days. Please bring them back.

Played everything EA offered from The Sims Medieval to Battlefield 1942 on a Windows XP laptop back in the day.  I'm old, still EA shouldn't waste us like that nowadays, there is still plenty grown up people played in the 2000s and still wishing to play your games today even though it is no longer $59.99.

Please kindly re-embrace your loyal old playerbase whom supported your games for decades. We deserve better.

    I wish there was an option to play against bots in split screen in bf6.

  • This has nothing to do with satisfying a casual audience. The reason you don't see LAN anymore, is because that requires the consumer to have access to the server code.

    They could in theory do it, but it's simply a matter of saving costs, as they don't have to support an entirely different architecture from the cloud based hosting they use now. In the past, the software architecture of games was a lot less complicated than it is now. 

    Completely custom maps require you to have access to the engine. The Frostbite engine is proprietary and isn't freely available. That's why they, with some limitations, expose the maps in Battlefield 6 using the Godot engine, which is open source. Same goes for all other types of mods.
