Remove Firestorm

Several reasons: 1. I have to wait for the game to find the server. I waited for 5 minutes, canceled search. I tried to rejoin, waited for 2 minutes, it found the game. But... 2. The last 2 games I...

    @meeha2 

    I'll close the post at your request. Like what @TTZ_Dipsy was saying though, going to DX11 should help avoid crashes if you try switching to that for that mode. Firestorm is a MUCH larger map than other BFV maps in the game, so it can be a little more demanding with the amount of things it has to load up.

    We've seen both positive and negative feedback on it being included in chapters. One thing to consider is that like you said, wait times can be longer for your region, so by adding it to a chapter where Battlefield fans need to jump in to earn that XP, it can help reduce wait times because of more queuing up. 

    Good luck in the next chapter and thanks for the submission here!

@meeha2 I'm not sure I would go to the extent of saying "Remove Firestorm" because you (and others) are having issues. Fix Firestorm and/or make Firestorm free for all might be a better solution. I personally don't have issues with game-play in Firestorm but I am aware many do.
Making it free for all would bring more people to the servers and more importantly, to the base game which they would have to purchase.
On a Sunday night I normally see 50 plus people or even full servers with Firestorm but during the week I have seen most games start below 30 people. Sometimes less than 20.
I play between 6pm and 10pm Eastern US time for reference. I mainly play the base game but I do try to play Firestorm (rather poorly) mixed in throughout the night.
