“Accept it or don’t buy the game.” These are comments from Patrick Söderlund, an executive with EA who recently announced that he is leaving the company.
My opinions......
I can understand the slow sales of BFV. BFV will be a game not well accepted by today's BF players looking for a great BF game, not just a "pretty graphics" stand in. And that's EA and DICE's fault for the lack of understanding or listening to what their customers wanted and asked for. This is another BF Hardline in the making. Graphically "Pretty" games don't make GREAT tactical war games!
There are many reasons why, for the slow sales of BFV.... like:
1. No complete Clan Support for larger groups of friends to play together.
2. Lacking a great mic communications system for Squad to Squad tactical play as BF3 had.
3. The lack of larger player game rooms as in 24 vs 24, 32 vs 32 and larger.
4. The Biggest problem: Another WW2 game! Just like a clone of the year old CoD WW2 . Who needs another WW2 game?
5. Not being a Modern Warfare game like Battlefield 3 or BF4.
6. Support for the PS5 is unknown?
7. Unknown info on User Controlled Custom Private Servers.
8. No info on a BFV Private Home practice room for private Clans to work on tactics and strategy for teaching new Clan members.
9. Unknown info on Great support for vehicles, armor and complete use of aircraft. BF3 set that standard.
10. No Support Tools for public and private Clan War competitions and Tournaments and no online score keeping system.
11. No Pre-Game launch room for two Clans to gather, meet and discuss the next game and shoot the Sh*t. The Sony SOCOM games had these pre-game launch room options over 15+ years ago! I guess DICE couldn't handle this.
12. A useless 'Run & Gun', 'Shoot Anything That Moves', "BATTLE ROYAL" game mode!! This game mode is for kiddies, not adult players! Huge mistake to add this mode. But little screaming kids will love it!
13. And Last: The Possible additions of player hated, Loot Boxes and Micro-Transactions added to BFV at a later date. EA said these will be added later to BFV, not to * off early BFV buyers, as was in the Star Wars Battlefrond games!
If BFV can't even provide these simple multiplayer options... my 200+ online PS4 War Clan won't touch this game. And I won't bother buying one copy for myself either. We didn't waste our money on BF1. BF4 was a weak * game for Clans. BF3 was still the last great Battlefield game.
