Why take away Breakthrough Initiation?

Honestly, I was having a lot of fun with that mode (despite it only allowing two maps on rotation). Sometimes I don't want to go against sweaty, try-hard players. Sometimes I just want to have a casual gameplay where I can actually enjoy the game with some challenge to it. I get that EA doesn't want players to xp farm, but isn't that a good way to keep player retention? Especially for those who are casual players who just want to enjoy the game.

A good example of this is Battlefront 2 co-op mode. It's a 4 player co-op with bots. And you still get xp from that mode. I'll have phases where I play nothing but the co-op mode for weeks (and I have a lot of fun with it), then I'll switch back to multiplayer when I feel like it. 

I feel like forcing a lot of players to only play the multiplayer takes the fun out of it considering this game is a lot harder than the previous battlefield games, imo. Like, I'm employed bro. I can't keep up with these sweat players.

  • Cause they love taking away everything from the non-sweats. First, they ruined my favorite playstyle (flanking) with awful map design, restrictive boundaries, and getting 3D-spotted by literally everything. And now they’ve taken the only game mode I actually enjoyed. Still haven’t received any compensation for the release day outage either. I’m pretty pissed.

  • It's rank related. It'll become invisible after you reach a certain rank. I suspect this is because it's intended as an introductory mode.

    Interesting, some report that it disappears at rank 11, some at rank more than 11. For me it was rank 21, and I personally saw a lot of players with rank above 50.

    In beta it was clearly written that available till rank 15, now such information is gone. So what are the rules?

    If there is way to get using low level squad member, then it is unfair, if it becomes unavailable due to some not clear conditions, again not fair. It should be clear, when and how.

    We already have broken portal, now only mode for casuals is also gone. What next? Hardcore mode for everyone?
