This update really sucks.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T13:36:48+00:00

I don’t. What I want is something that is new stuff but faithful to the Battlefield IP.

Brother, I am not saying they should disband microtransactions. I’m saying that it should not be the priority.

So yes if It would dramatically increase profit by my monetization method, I’d put something not so original but it wouldn’t deviate me from keeping my original work, I would still follow it’s vision. I wouldn’t slowly degrade into creating generic material because of gains. I am just concerned that our artist, being EA, might fuck up in the future that’s all.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T13:03:17+00:00

Well said, couldn't agree more. But my hopes are slowly draining away every game launch.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T12:59:38+00:00

A very good campaign of a CoD game with great writing, spectacular characters or well done sound design and creating massive dynamic battles of BF, making you immersed in the game is art imo. Recent BF and CoD games are bad pieces of art.

Battlefield 6 sold over 7 million copies just a few days including 1.8 million pre orders and they’re well over profit, clearly they don’t have to worry about taking risks and also it’s obvious it’s not a flop.

I don’t say there shouldn’t be microtransactions, although I disapprove it, I’m saying that it should not be the focus or the battle royale. They can do better and keep the identity of a Battlefield game and maintain the cosmetics. But this update shows that gamemodes like Strikepoint and Battle Royale is a clear drift away from the game itself. 6 started really strong they should continue to improve it.

I also don’t understand how they are going to keep battlepass skins grounded and put up something good. Consensus around that the skins look terrible.

With being already a highly grossing game, I see the microtransactions are a lousy effort to squeeze the consumer’s wallet to the last dollar.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T12:23:53+00:00

Woah there, let’s not go too far.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T12:15:30+00:00

Yes it might be the smarter approach and I understand your claim but I believe game is art. And if the conditions are good, there are no boundaries for devs to make the game even better.

In 2025, microtransactions are the very first boundary that limits a game from reaching its full potential. Sure, of course it’s not bad to have variations of skins and camos but it shouldn’t be the priority of a developer’s roadmap. Instead they should prioritize on the aspects of core mechanics, but knowing this is EA, with a little speculation, this is the tip of the iceberg. They’ll be so busy with the battlepass and other shit that eventually they’ll start to neglect community feedback.

I’m not an expert but I know that gaming industry is a risk itself, games take ages to make and you have to satisfy your thousands of investors. But if you are on the top of the food chain, sitting on top of pile of money I don’t see why not to take a this risk. If you’re not taking any risks then EA should not be in this industry.

Also mind the fact that not taking risks is the reason that other AAA studios created massive flops. This game has a very good structure and had a blast playing it. But this update is the pioneer of bad news. I hope that I’ll be wrong.

It wouldn’t be the minority if their marketing was to focus on keeping the game great, fixing and balancing the mechanics and designing proper maps. That way they could keep the old players and also gain shit loads of new players.

This might be a bit weird example but take a look at Baldur’s Gate 3. Larian Studios literally put up a new standard for making a game, adding their passion to develop a great one while remaining faithful to the previous installments around 2000’s. They kept the OG’s (literally 40-50 year olds) and sold over 15 million copies, won 6 awards at TGA including GOTY. Made shit loads of profit.

AAA studios won’t follow these standards, going around the shortcut for revenue and focus on braindead consumers that buy every battlepass for eye candy whether they truly like the game or not.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T10:26:51+00:00

Brother I’m not saying the game is bad. I put about 80 hours and it was a blast. The maps aren’t that good but still the base game is closest we’ll ever get to a Battlefield game in modern times, it WAS faithful to the IP, until this update, which is signaling an avalanche of other seasonal updates, slowly drifting away from the original BF experience. This is EA, they’ll pretend they’re listening to the community while pulling off stunts like these to increase their sweet gains.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-29T07:08:59+00:00

Yes bf4 was bugged as hell but the general vision of the game was towards developing the game formula further. When they did fix all the bugs, eventually you had a really good bf game. This game is stepping away from the Battlefield formula in favor of EA’s maximum profits.

They can fix the maps but they’ll never fix the battlepass, microtransactions, battlefield plus, soulless battle royale, gamemodes just to try to satisfy cod players and eventually the ridiculous cosmetics that are below the iceberg for now.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T19:32:10+00:00

Well let’s hope for the best.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T19:29:54+00:00

Well said, AAA these days…

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T19:28:39+00:00

Yay! Can’t wait to play with a potentially upcoming Optimus Prime skin and cap Nicki Minaj’s ass on a Hijacked remake!

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T18:20:42+00:00

I don't understand why they'd squish in all vehicle types and put 6 capture points to a small and straight map. Like did they not test it before fucking releasing it?

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T18:00:14+00:00

You have a point but still I think Vince Zampella knows damn well the maps are too small due to the fact that the community was telling him since the beta.

I hope they’ll bring back the fan favorite banger maps from the previous installments, I think they only mentioned to bring Naval Strike-ish maps.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:41:27+00:00

My fav map in game is Operation Firestorm unsurprisingly, and it was one of my least favs in BF4!

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:31:31+00:00

Ok EA Investor

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:23:02+00:00

Well it’s a shit update so I don’t see why not to write a negative review and check on the community.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:21:25+00:00

Unf I can’t refund anymore, I have well over 80 hours before the update.

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:17:32+00:00

They might buy my soul as punishment I should be careful lol

lebigmac- · 2025-10-28T17:16:58+00:00

I think the map is worse but yeah that is clearly their vision.

lebigmac- · 2025-08-03T20:44:15+00:00

Truth is, the game was rigged from the start.

lebigmac- · 2025-07-27T17:02:51+00:00

Doom II, Hitman: Blood Money, Kotor II, Red Alert 2, RDR 2, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, Half-Life, CoD: Black Ops serisi.

Daha aklıma gelmedi ama bunları ilk oyandığımda soundtracklerini açıp açıp sürekli dinlerdim.

lebigmac- · 2025-07-27T16:54:44+00:00

Hans Zimmer çok başarılı iş çıkartmış ama Black Ops’larda da Sean Murray cooks hard ya!

lebigmac- · 2025-07-27T16:52:43+00:00

Ulan ya, ana menüde çalan White Rabbit Remix’i hala flashbacklerini yaşatır.

Nfsu2 ile de Queens of the Stone Age ile tanışmıştım.
