Some issues
The Dev team aren't doing a great job, the player retention is quite poor. There are some underlying reasons, and I'm afraid the last updates show the Dev team definitely arent all at the same level. Some aspects of the game are good, others are really bad.
- The net code is abysmal. The last update has made things worse, not better. Time to bring in some outside help, the Devs responsible for this part of the game aren't good enough. Time to death is too often one frame, hit reg is still poor and the amount of dying behind cover has gotten worse. If the devs need to gaslight and claim they have improved it, it proves they don't know what they are doing and haven't gotten the ability to fix it.
- The maps... very much a mixed bag. The latest maps are just bad, Blackwell Fields plays like it was made in 3 minutes, with no thought given to it at all. Mirak valley is also just one of the maps that is a slugfest. The rest of the maps are alright, but not great.
- Character models and skins, they look like they were designed by the same people responsible for the models of 2042... Frankly they look cartoonish and weak. The skins are getting more childish as well, the devs responsible here can't seem to get a grasp on realism and actual military gear.
- Too many game modes, and way too many which are uninteresting and no-one will play. Will just serve to fracture the community and too much time is wasted on this nonsense no one is asking for. Focus on the base modes and just make them good.
- Portal, is under supported and useless. EA does nothing with the stuff being created there.
It just feels like without the community holding their hands, the Devs are not of the level across the board where they bring quality to every aspect of the game. It just feels like there are brilliantly talented people working along side absolute amateurs. I really hope whoever now takes the lead, can manage it so the level is improved across the board.
