5. Allow for more player made content. Let players create cosmetics for soldier weapons and gear. This wouldn't necessarily be the weapons and equipped items themselves, but rather the skins on them. You'll be able to engage the community a lot more, save money and time from developing cosmetics, focus more on improving the mechanics and bugs in the game, and have way more content get added. You'll need a gatekeeper to determine which skins to add. Take this even further by creating a supply-demand based in-game market. The popularity of those goods will directly determine which cosmetics are the best, and you'll get direct feedback from the community without having to ask any questions. Then you make more of those types of skins, or at the very least move in that direction. If this becomes immensely successful, then expand this further into actual era-specific weapons, vehicles, etc. Overall, this feature will allow for far more content than ever before, and you actually save more money doing it.
I wish they would take a page from Atlus' book and conduct major surveys for the fans to fill out a few months after a large game's release and take the time to meet all those needs like what happened with Persona 5.
That lukewarm response to a Battle Royale mode (though I guess if anyone can do it, it's DICE), the backlash from no RSP, and keeping silent on most fronts should give them an inkling of what needs to be done for the next game.
All the points and suggestions you've made are valid but I believe #2 is the absolute best thing they can do - amazing things can happen when you just take your time and do it right
Hmmmm.... Bad Company reference at the shooting range... does this mean that they're taking our advice and going with a modern BC3 for the next BF title, and possibly following the title release blueprint from above??
DICE TeamNice little Easter egg to Bad Company series. 🙂
I remember trying out the beta for BFBC2 and you could see that smile on hand grenades in the game. Always put a smile on my face seeing it. 🙂
