Surely tho.... So long as people dont buy the loot boxes this will work?

I mean i can say with absolute certainty that i will NEVER buy a loot box.

this should really wind you all up haha!

Basically the star fighting mode the upgrade cards mean you completely dominate the skies.... however Level cap did say the inf only upgrades are less noticeable and offer smaller upgrades

 

[Doobedoo]

Count me out I'll pirate it at best if not I'll still be able to look myself in the mirror.

Goon, few people over 18 will pay for loot boxes. Kids with no idea of the value of money and parents / relatives buying xbox points and simialr for christmas / birthday means this will always rake them in money.

Honestly, I'm not surprised one bit. Gaming is bigger than ever today and there is far too much money/investors involved. For "triple A" games, money comes before key game play elements. As long as people continue to buy into this crap, they will keep churning it out, but worse each time.

Paying for cosmetics is one thing, paying so you deal more damage and what not is a complete joke. Don't be surprised if this crap makes it's way into the next Battlefield.

How long until indie games start this

Well rocket League unfortunately has loot crates, but its cosmetics only. But yep indie developers will follow suit I just don't think they can get away with pay 2 win elements as it would sink their games really fast.

Nope. By buying the game your sending a message that reduced content in the base game and hampered progression systems is acceptable. Also as far as EA is concerned they just need to try harder to crack you/entice you to open you wallet.

Got a refund.

Invested in Destiny 2 at the moment so will wait for it to come on offer around xmas.

Well, after Kapstaad spending £1000.00's on graphics cards for no real world gain then I dont mind throwing money at games now and again despite the hate this ones getting

You paid £70 for game that lasts about 7 hours and is so dumbed down that it should be licking windows? What the hell is wrong with gamers these days?

That's what saddest about this all, guaranteed the next BF game will adopt this exact same system
