I can’t imagine a situation where I would ever give this game more money. It already feels like I’m owed about thirty bucks back considering the permanent half off discount that began about a month after it released.

I wonder how many dollars they’ll try to squeeze from people just to get hairdos for their characters, haha I mean, we all know they’re there as we see them in pics but they haven’t let us have any yet. So I’m guessing non-shaved heads are premium boin material. What a never ending show Battlefield 5 is.

So Epic skins are only available with Battlefield Currency, there’s a surprise. Makes Company Coins even more pointless than before, no wonder they gave us so many in the retroactive payout.

I’m all for supporting the game but in this case I won’t be giving EA / DICE a penny more. A game without a decent anti-cheat, ranks, RSP, team-balancing and dismal lack of content - one new map in 5 months since launch is laughable.

I hope you join me in my boycott, the trust between us and them has never been lower.

Won’t be buying any, regardless of what state the game is in.  
This is a full retail priced game and not a free to play game.

Wasn’t really planning on buying them anyway TBH. Maybe if there’s something _really_ nice.

They’ll need to be careful if it was.

No, but they were imprecise, inconcrete and deliberatley vague. From the chart it says that you can buy cosmetics with both the in-game currency and the Boins, if that would mean all cosmetics was left to imagination and vague. Also, since it took them five months to implement the shop 50%, I suppose the shop went through a lot of changes itself.  
For example, with the shop delay, the poor player retention and the CC issue at release, we have players like me who buy a lot with CC for and giggles and still have 170k on the bank, there are players who play a round every day or come back after a long hiatus or new players, that might even struggle to get their weapons upgraded, and there are players that play a lot and hoard, which could bring them up to 400k easily.  
This creates an enormously failed economy from the start, so they have to limit the usefulness of company coins at first, while giving out a ton more at the same time for new players (assignments, combined arms, dailies etc.).

I do not think a couple of skins behind a paywall can be called “a content”.

Won’t spend money (fine, that is your choice) but then bemoans the lack of content.

Priceless!

Unfortunately there will be loads of people who will buy Boins, no matter what campaign we set. Only those who cares about this franchise wont spend a penny on it. OP only listed a small fraction of game breaking bugs, but there are loads more, I paid full price for the so called AAA game, and at best I am getting C+ experience. EA if you cant deliver, you ain’t getting my Money! (offensive language removed by moderator)

Anyone seen wearing an Epic skin on the Battlefield is a scab. I’m gonna hunt you down repeatedly with my MG 42 😉

Why would I spend money on Epic cosmetics?, and how is this linked to the lack of content - I do not see the correlation.
