Disappointed at how the game is presented to the players

(Was marked as spam so here's a repost)

I don't know about you guys, but I feel like that the game is not released at a satisfying state.

First that there are tons of bugs, lagging that people including me are experiencing. I do not believe that such big scale of glitches has never happened during the testing by the devs, and the devs were not aware of these situations.

Second, I do not feel like that EA is confident in what they are giving to us. Take Ubisoft for example, when a game is scheduled to be released, there will be tons of detail of what's included and what will be the game's future development. However by looking at the founders' calendar, we cannot tell what will the reward be. (Maybe they have shown some of the content on the live stream like they showed how Pea of Valiance looks? I don't know if they did that but even if they did, they should also show it on the website so everyone especially for people who haven't purchase the game. And I learned how the week 4 reward looks like from the subreddit, not from anything official.) To be honest, I'm not satisfied with the reward of the first three weeks. And I know many of you aren't too. Feels like the founders' (Beta testers') reward is actually the 10$ discount and the crashes.

And here comes the Ops, I think I don't even have to talk much about what happened to the Ops. But the Ops has tons of bad design we can complaint about, however I believe that many of the bad design can be resolved if the devs gave enough test plays to it. Which is why I don't feel like I've been given a prepared content but something rushed.

What's more importantly, I don't feel good not knowing how they are going to run the game in the future. How the in-game purchase will be? Do I have to grind heavily on the festivals? What's Rux going to sell? From the j**k moves that they put emotes in the Reward-O-Tron I'm not seeing a bright future of the game.

I'm posting this not because I want to be someone who complains, but am concerning about the future of the game. I love the game, also willing to invest both time and money to the future content, just hoping that it'll be worth it to do so.

I hope that the game does not get ruined by any kind of greedy act. I wish the devs know that we are willing to support the game with a reasonable amount of money but only for quality contents.

Please take careful steps on this game that we all love, thank you.

@DarkLanX I'm going to wait and see what the final release looks like, but for now i too am not happy about some of the crappy content from the Reward-O-Tron, for 30,000 coin, i don't want a useless emote.

I'm going to try to hold all of my overall game comments until this game releases on October 18th. The release we are playing is quite unique. I don't think I've ever paid to help developers work out bugs, etc. We do get a $10 discount over the people that buy at the release date. But, I think I am playing now just because I really love these games and I want to contribute. I do agree that they should have explained this process a lot before it just...happened.

It is an absolute ripoff for an emote to be all you get for 30,000. It should be where if you get a "common" item, you get an emote for free along with it since you only got a "common" item. To spend 30,000 coins, only to get something I will literally NEVER use is complete and utter B.S.!

@crazydave0923 Make no mistake, over 90% of issues game currently has, won't be fixed upon game launch.

@CJackson5083 That is a great idea. Make sure you submit that.

@KrudeGaming It would be interesting to see what the developers think the issues are. Actually list them and then knock them off the list one by one. I don' t know what the percentage will be but they won't get everything fixed in a month.

I got the short stick, buying that game turned out to be one of the worst decisions in my life. Current state of the game I will describe in 1 word:
UNPLAYABLE
As a old-school player of GW1 and GW2 I know what I'm talking about, the difference in fact of actual "fun" (for me) is so huge between those and BFN that I will delete it soon.
The GRINDING in that game is soooo huge, the Bugs are insane, the settings are overwhelmingly underwhelming, I cant aim for * (when I go to gw2 I do!).
The balancing is upper GARBAGE. Balance is the key to everything, but the developers seem to be living behind a wall without a door.
The variants are gone and will not come back, which means this game is just a bunch of sprinting wannabe-tryhards using the same classes alllll over again!
And yes we had such players in gw and 2, but here its on another level.
The bugs just make it worse.

@Schattenpflanze The bugs and grind are real. What make me more disappointed is that the devs should be well-aware of all these. I'm also a software developer myself, it is impossible for a developer to release something with so many problem. There can be some bugs, bugs are inevitable. But it's the devs' attitude toward the players I'm talking about. I feel like I'm playing this game with the support of my passion for the game, not what I'm actually receiving. I really hope they can face the future problem more seriously.

I think they are trying their best to fix the game. When you have a community that wants this or that and say this is balanced or this isn’t balanced, it’s hard to listen to who. The game has problems, but so did many games when they first release. Especially since it’s a multiplayer game, they can’t satisfy anyone nor are they trying to. They are already trying to balance for fair gameplay instead of having 100+ variant classes running around. Most games have 100+ classes 7-10 years after they are released. The game is trying, that’s why it’s not $60, and released would only be $40. They are trying to gain a larger audience again by reducing the price. Plus I never heard of a battle pass 100% free like this one coming in October. There’s usually always a paid track.
