Micro transactions are ruining these games. Pay 2 Win should not be an option for a game you purchase. You play, get better, and earn rewards.
If people want the best weapons and abilities from the start then maybe this isn't the game for them as many of us do not want the shortcuts and want a sense of accomplishment. We also want a level playing field. At the very least create tiers and separate players based on card level and rank. then those who spend money to get the best can play in their own tier.
EA can release DLC and new maps and skins etc, but the progression should not be tied to how much you spend if it is a "complete game" at launch.
If they want to make money off microtranscations then they can lower the price significantly to $10. A $60 game should be complete at launch which is a lesson from Battlefront 1 in 2015.
Revenue generators should be tied to added value, not for shortcuts. Expansion packs have worked for years because they are added value and new content.
I am really surprised they didn't just copy Madden and Fifa Ultimate Team and have packs you open for characters and have a marketplace to sell and trade. Thankfully they did not.
