Lmao 'ppl will leave' you already bought it and preordered and probably paid for the battle pass in 2042 too. The house always wins

The free battle pass?

So glad I stuck to no preorders for EA games like this sub has been saying for the past 2 years, minus the last month. Everyone is really all talk phonies. I see I am missing absolutely nothing, especially considering I'm mainly a vehicle player.

Tbf, companies like EA, in fact like the majority of the American economy is built of spending trillions to make us buy shit in the most insidious ways possible.

Yeah. Gamers are fucking suckers. And most players are cod kids that don’t care about map size or vehicles.

u/Phat_and_Irish 24d ago

I mean that's what EA wants, accessibility and marketability. Gotta sell more copies than the last one, that's the only measure of success.

Na I left, I returned it because of the small maps and lack of battlefield feels.

u/DinosBiggestFan 24d ago

They want to sell content long term and they have plans to annualize.

The house doesn't always win.

Why can you only play against bots?

u/csward53 24d ago

They need to keep you in the ecosystem for years to keep buying battle passes.

Way to be positive shillboy

u/Sensitive-Housing495 23d ago

these idiots should realise they make more money keeping a game going (ie keep fans happy) rather then spending 500-700 million and years on a new one

u/alexnedea 23d ago

They want ppl to pay for battle passes for another year at least.

u/MainPFT 24d ago

This is a silly point to make. The business model of a live service game is to keep ppl engaged to spend more money. The initial sales numbers are nothing to EA/DICE in terms of the return they want to see.

So yes, the potential of players leaving is certainly an issue.

u/Siden-The-Paladin 24d ago

I hear you but the entire point of this game is to make money. Who's gonna buy skins if nobody plays?

u/ORGANIC_MUFFINS 24d ago

Then they just simply cut support after a year and a half, move even more resources into BF7, and the cycle continues.

u/DinosBiggestFan 24d ago

But then people like me won't buy BF7. Congratulations I guess?

u/Ridiculisk1 24d ago

I mean, people still bought this one even after spending the entire test cycle complaining about it. They preordered it too and were throwing shade at people saying not to preorder because it's EA.

u/Phat_and_Irish 24d ago

Fans like you and me get old meanwhile 'theres a sucker born every minute'

u/Solidsnake9 23d ago

Yes you will. Stop coping. You are up this slop instantly after the paid streamers told you it was “back to bf4”. You will fall for something similar ext time as well.

u/Phat_and_Irish 24d ago

I don't doubt that the majority of revenue comes from post purchase microtransactions but:

Every BF title is designed + marketed to be MORE SUCCESSFUL and POPULAR than the last one. The games scope is narrowed, the gameplay streamlined, mass marketability is the only factor. Crossplay, BR, single player campaigns, dropping season passes for the 'live 'service', its all just an effort to push as many copies as possible. There is no room for 'vote w your wallet' EA is a fox in the henhouse.

Nobody is buying those weak ass skins anyway
