@ElvenmonkThey are loosing money but sadly there is a bean counter looking at the big picture and pc is tiny for ea i say that do to there mobile/console numbers we know off.
Yes there is alot of pc players and yes there are popular ea games on pc but console players love to spend cash on mt's alot more than pc just look at there sports games.
Ea themselves said ps5 xbox series console is only getting the "next gen" enhanced versions of sports gmaes do to pc's not being able to handle the tech but then showing how they make over a billion a year on console alone in sports games look it up.
I am pro origin it took years for that app to become what it is today but it started out way better that ea app. But at the end of the day like the drug companies its all about loss and profit.
Also correct me if i am wrong but after 10yrs? need for speed games on pc still can not run on high framerates without freaking out do to being shody consoles ports.
I know Burnout remastered was a bad console port down to requiring a webcam to work because there is not profile icon picture like on consoles. No one I know bought the new NFS because of the EA app just not working. I decided against buying it because no one to play with.
Interesting thing about the MTXs is that countries are starting to crackdown on them. Asian countries are passing anti-loot box laws now and some are flat out banning people under the age of 18 from purchasing any MTX. It'll also be interesting to see how their sports titles do if they lose the Fifa license, since that's their cash cow internationally.
As for relying on consoles BF 2042, from what I've heard, is dead on consoles but on life support for PC. I know BF4 died on consoles fast but stayed on PC, same with BF1. TF2 has over 8k players on PC, excluding community servers, and consoles are at less than 100. I heard PS is less than 10.
