80% of sales were on consoles.

Makes you wonder if consoles is Battlefields target market, then will the franchise continue to be dumbed down?

Which is why I can't get too excited over Battlefront.

Just have a sinking feeling it will be console-centric and will not have the features or performance that BF deserves on a PC.

I want to be proven wrong, but I can't shake the feeling that it's going to be a turkey!
 
I posted this in the BF4 thread but it's more pertinent here

Matimio or whatever he is called has enraged the Visceral mp producer for hardline by not recommending the dlc

Funny how some youtubers grow a back bone when the community rejects a game.

These are the same guys that EA pay and accommodate to attend their press events and pre game launch tests. So tell me with their accumulated subscriber base over a couple of million why hasn't this game got even tens of thousands of people playing online? Why do EA still go to them as consultants? Why do Joe public still look to them as gaming Gods? I really hope this is the beginning that subscribers are beginning to see them as the shills that they are and unsubscribing.

Very important that he plays on non pb enabled servers.

If he needs help there are tutorials out there:

It's based on BF4 but Hardline should be the same. That Hainan Resort at night looks nice. :cool:
 
Yeh I got my money back for premium and have uninstalled. I'll keep monitoring the patches but if the ronku youtubers are saying that it sucks then it must be total rubbish.
 
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING AN ISSUE THAT IS PREVENTING PLAYERS FROM JOINING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY SERVERS ON PC. WE WILL UPDATE ONCE MORE INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE, YOUR PATIENCE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED WHILE WE WORK TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER.

Oh dear :( Not only did they refuse me a refund, but now the DLC is out I can't even play it lol.
 
Lmao so you can't play the latest dlc and they removed dino masks. It's like a bomb went of on battlelog. So much swearing, so many insults are being hurled at Visceral.
 
Oh my, the fail is strong with HL. I suspect EA might find themselves in a class action over the premium content in HL and I have little sympathy.

They have got to stop taking cash for products that aren't done yet and may never be done. This isn't a kickstarter it's supposed to be a AAA.
 
I'm glad I got my refund to be honest. EA have just been greedy to be honest. Instead of investing in new developers by way of selling hardline as an expansion pack for much less they have propped up a new developer as part of a AAA separate release. I think the reaction from the community would have been better if this was a £10 expansion.
