    Battlefield did have a battle pass. But they pretty much axed it when they realized it was separating the player base. Premium pass holders jumped ahead of the line when waiting to join a server, they got certain skins.
    Some games are taking me 5 minutes to join as a solo que, I couldn't imagine how long it would take if a battle pass holder was able to jump in front of you.
    With all that being said, I buy a season pass that's it. I dont buy skins or anything else. If my 30 bucks a year helps keep the game fresh I'm cool with that. It's a hell of a lot better then having to spend 100 for a new game every year like COD and B.F.

    Sorry bud but they have already earned enough money with this 4 year old game........ even if we go of the cheapest discounts that are available (£10) that means they have earned minimum £300 million of the franchise alone (excluding) cosmetics/R6 Credits etc.

    They have already earned way more than enough of this game, what a battle pass shows is simple. numbers are declining and they are trying to keep revenue high.

    Noticed how after the 20 million player announcement back in 2017 then only 8 months later they announced 30 million players registered but what has happened since then....... no news on player count which tells me its in decline hence the heavy microtransaction scheme.

    Sorry but this is why a Battle Pass has made its way into a game that is not F2P and has a Season Pass along side it, they need every bit of money they can get now on a game in decline.
    All those numbers are fanticy numbers thay don’t sub tracked smurf accounts or people owning dubble copy’s or triple copy’s the real number off total players is probably about hafe that

    The numbers are heavily inflated... If they weren't you wouldn't have to wait 2-3 minutes for a match

    Meh..it's an ongoing project for the devs. They said years ago (panel discussion) that things might get wonky before they get better. They perceived the development and quietly tried to assure us of an end result.

    They have a lot on their plate, and I'm sure things will get better..eventually. Heck, things are already getting better such as MM times. I don't know why you get 3 min matchmaking..but by golly I wish I had that problem..or I wouldn't have had to create a thread about AFK times .

    There's something under the hood..who knows, but I think I know that they are trying things that we just are not privy to. Not a bad thing to say the least..

    For one, it's optional and not buying it doesn't put you at any disadvantage. Secondly, UBi is a business, they are going to try and sell you stuff from time to time because that's what a business does. This outraged post is more cry baby nonsense from a giant baby.

    I agree that this battle pass is stupid. But Donald Trump doesn't want to ban guns. he wants more restrictions which I don't agree with. Because it's stupid and doesn't need to be done as it's not the guns fault. It's the people killing with them.

    I'm perplexed. Say what?

    Put simple , the only thing i have against this battle pass thing is that its attracts that less mature audience that ruins the game , othe than that i cant be oposed to something that is maybe needed to keep the game growing, what OP says is that no ferrari should have been made because most people cant or want to afford it , and that is just ilogical and delusional , you dont like it you dont buy it , its pretty simple.

    and apart from a measly 3€ for a platinum skin and the season passes i never spent one cent in this game , even the game itself was a gift from a friend, this before you pull the card where im biased because im a whale.
