Battle Points

Hello EA. Have been reading through your online help menu for BFII. I read that you only earn battle points when playing multiplayer. Does Multiplayer mean online play? I have absolutely no interest ...

    I think you'll find yourself VERY disappointed with the lack of offline content my man.

    And also, you can earn battle points offline, but it seems like your confusing them with credits. Credits are what unlocks you star card items. Battle points are strictly for unlocking heroes and enforcers etc during the current game match.

Thanks again to those of you that have responded to my question. Looking back at my original post I noticed that not all of my questions were answered. Ok, yes I can level up with offline play. What about unlocking hero characters? A buddy of mine that has played BFI extensively, told me that it is technically possible. However, it will take literally thousands of hours of playing to unlock just one hero character. This is why EA put in the pay to win option, which I refuse to do. Is this true? I'm an adult with a full time job, bills to pay and a family to take care of. At best I get maybe 3 hours a week to play. How does EA expect players like myself to have an enjoyable online experience when we're being killed every 20 seconds? When your learning how to box, you don't start by fighting Mike Tyson.

You can level up and unlock characters if you are only going to play offline, but it will take 3 times longer to do so. Seeing as the max credits from online is roughly 300 per round, and offline is roughly 100. And that's on top of a leveling system that's designed to take long (a pay-to-win kinda system).

But luckily, offline gives you access to all locked heroes during matches. You just won't be able to upgrade them or have them in online.

    Thanks again. I'll just grind away playing the offline content. When I'm board, I'll toss it in the closet. Haven't played the game yet and I'm already annoyed, disappointed and angry. After seeing the adds for the game I was excited to play. Then I find out that none of that epic content is available to me. EA... your making a huge mistake to alienate those of us that don't play online. I'm done with you!
