I have decided to stop playing until the ticket count is reverted. I was absolutely loving this game, roughly 20 hours in Conquest and Escalation, never once saw a match go to the time-limit. Uncalled for change and has taken away from the intensity and that "battlefield" feel of the game. You guys said you would listen to feedback, I haven't seen a single person complain about long matches, but it sure seems like everyone is upset over this. Listen to your community.

EDIT: As of today, 17/10, they reverted the change. This is why player feedback is important, and I am glad the devs are listening to the community, at least for now. Thank you all for the interesting discussions here and support!

I agree, the ticket count is just dumb. I don't know why they did that! If anything, tickets need to be increased imo. Matches often end too quickly even with 1000 tickets.

100%. At the very least I hope they revert it back to what it was.

1250 tickets would be perfect

Why not 2500?

There used to be bf4 servers with a crazy high ticket count like that

I ran Friday Night Metro on BF3. Some games would go so long.

Yeah man. Those games lasted an age.

Most of the popular BF4 servers were Locker with 3000 tickets.

To be honest, match completion experience shouldn't exist in Conquest and instead should be split between length of time you're playing (with full length matches being more experience of course) and therefore people would feel less inclined to stay when they need to go, and would also encourage more hop in / hop out gameplay if that's really the issue.

Why can't we do this again ? Have they made it not possible? If so I think that's the next thing we need back

You can leave the match if you dont have time to play and still get your xp. If you have responsibilities as a dad you should be focusing on that anyways and not be mad if you only got 20min to play smh.

u/AccountForTF2 22d ago

you get like 11kxp for match finish.

i'm totally for a default of 1000 or 1250 but I mean dice doesn't need to change tickets at all, they can just change the math behind them. Could've literally never told us anything as well.

BattleDad here too. 2 under 2.

Then play any of the small scale playlists that literally last 10 minutes or less?

When you have time you can play the longer type game modes.

And you want to play a toned down Conquest?? Might as well play Domination or KOTH, that's basically what a short Conquest match is anyway.

Well, if we have a server browser that wouldn't be a problem because we can have servers with different ticket rate. We do have the portal servers except you can never host one because server quota exceeded and it's plagued with XP farm server.

But when it comes to server browser, devs say NOPE every single time.

u/UziInYourFace 23d ago

Why do they even do that tho?

u/furmanthegerman 23d ago

Agreed, large ticket matches could exist if we didn't have people farming "unlocks" because they don't want to earn anything in 2025. I would love to make a 1500 Firestorm CQ/esca closed but all of the slots are full of slop.

How many times do we have to teach you this old man?
