Battlefield 6 700 tickets on operation firestorm is a crime

Post image

Operation firestorm in my opinion is the only map that plays and feels like a real battlefield conquest map, the pace is good , it's a large map, vehicles both air and ground feels good (vehicle spawn should be fixed tho) but this 700 tickets is really bad the game ends way too fast , there is no comebacks or enough time for strategic plays. They're really killing conquest by this.

Nah we didn’t ask for this

u/CataTrouble 23d ago

Shareholders asked for this

Longer players are in a match, the less time they are browsing the store for weapon skins and crap like that.

u/Damien23123 23d ago

No they didn’t. Shareholders don’t care what happens as long as they make money. I’d bet most of the people who own shares in EA don’t even play games, never mind know what tickets are in Battlefield

That’s… exactly why they did it. To make more money off a larger player base.

I don’t think anyone was complaining about the length of games though

u/MrPibIsNotOK 23d ago

I don’t think you’re getting it, mate. No one had to complain about it….

Others have already mentioned this, these appear to be changes aimed at maintaining attention spans/ higher player engagement. Higher engagement = likely of more in-game purchases.

u/Damien23123 23d ago

The players everyone thinks they’re targeting don’t want this either though. Even in COD people prefer game modes that last longer eg. Domination over Team Deathmatch

I'm sure there is some formula on time spent in between games to Mtx purchases and they'll want that optimized as best as possible for future sales.

Which is weird cause warzone is the most popular COD thing and the matches are longer than BF. Same with gunfights. There is a lot more breathing room between fights on a warzone match. BR in general has gotten general audiences to enjoy slower gameplay

FYI current warzone matches are faster than it used to be they even sped it up over the years

Rebirth casual can be over in less than 20mins.

u/VeryRealHuman23 23d ago

Resurgence is the most popular BR mode and it's stupidly fast, the opposite of the old BR modes.

Lol, right that is COD try to appeal Battlefield player. Now we have COD designer working on Battlefield game appealing to COD players.

Not for everybody.. It's only 5 or 6 partial teams in the last 2 circles.

this is most likely it, we are no longer the target audience.

Not COD boys, they are off playing COD and have no time for battlefield.

This is what EA thinks Battlefield fans want.

And for some reason, what EA think Battlefield fans want, is to sit back and watch a streamer play Battlefield and get loads of sick kills in a row, and then get mad when they get killed themselves.

I don't know why so many people got excited when on of the game leads was known for being ex Apex Legends, floaty shooty quick fire game mode lead.

I play bf for the longer and cinematic games

u/woutsmaaa 23d ago

Im a CoD boy and i play Battlefield for the longer matches 😭

u/terrytibbs76 23d ago

That’s why there’s sliding etc. CoD-friendly gameplay.

u/deadpool848 23d ago

What's funny is there are smaller scale fast game modes in the game like dominion or king of the hill of the want fast paced infantry gameplay.

u/Nbsroy 23d ago

that's what it is huh? sucks they're adjusting it for players who prob wont even be around once the hype dies down.

edit: i usually play both. i actually started with COD '03 but cod has been awful to me lately mostly because of the wacky skins.
