Misleading? Maybe. But lie? Not really. There are cosmetics available to purchase with CC in store. That’s being said, Dice shouldn’t hide all Epic-tier items behind the paywall. Many people expected to get some nice stuff with store update but got a big pile of nothing and premium items for purchase with real money. ---

Nothing more, nothing less. It is misleading advertising as long as it is not like this. It is not like if most people here ever got BFV hoping to pimp their soldier up for free but it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth. . Withholding the entire truth about something is as good as a lying. ---

Well we all knew monetization was coming. It could have been implemented the better way but now you look a bit weird acting like microtransactions came out of nowhere. ---

I think they did thisis because they figured the new people that are buying Battle field 5 are only getting it for firestorm which means they will pay for anything (Blackout did a similar thing) ---

> [@HawkeyeAM47](#): > > I think they did thisis because they figured the new people that are buying Battle field 5 are only getting it for firestorm which means they will pay for anything (Blackout did a similar thing) If true, then we can expect most patch’s and new stuff to be about firestorm since the money are there. hmmmmm It explains the roadmap. It may end up being very disappointing for the core game, also since Dice takes over further development of firestorm ---

That chart is missing a square for Boins-only cosmetics. Indeed, that chart implies that CC can buy everything. It’s technically a lie by omission. I think people who are defending it are coming from a jaded “of course they will mislead consumers, that’s expected, therefore you can’t get mad at them for what you should know they would do.” Oh hawk put up an example of what I mean. They left out the truth to wait out the backlash. ---

I think they should be available mate, although Dice are being a bit shifty with the way they word things in BFV, so they might have been boined. ---

Gotta love human behaviour! Oh, I made an assumption about something and therefore it can’t possibly be my fault that I drew the wrong conclusion,after all I’m infallible in my way of perceiving the world and it’s always everyone else that is wrong. Jeez people, this is not the end of the world and if you genuine believe you would get everything for nothing then you’re gonna struggle in life. If your assumption about everything free was true, how did you think EA was going to generate any revenue from the game, seeing as everyone would just grind for the freebies? There’s plenty of reasons to give EA the boot, but this is not one of them. ---

> [@llPhantom\_Limbll](#): > > Well we all knew monetization was coming. It could have been implemented the better way but now you look a bit weird acting like microtransactions came out of nowhere. Have to agree. Although I’m a little annoyed by the fact that you can’t buy them with CC, it’s not exactly surprising if you haven’t been living under a rock that they’ve added a premium currency - it was announced quite a while before launch. Also you’re really comparing a premium currency… to maps? I don’t even know any more. ---

Wasn’t the whole point of microtransactions to fund further development and new content? Can’t sit here and complain about the supposed solution to the lack of maps. ---

Um, point out where someone said they thought they’d get everything for free? We’re talking about Boins, not one person said “everything free.” SWBF2 had a “pay to skip the grind” system, as do many games. EA gave the impressions that all would be unlockable by grind/assignments etc. Which isn’t true. And you are proving my previous post: you never expected anything but paid-only cosmetics, because you KNOW EA. Not everyone does, and they are surprised to learn how deceptive EA can be. You, me, many of us learned this long ago and therefore don’t really “blame” EA for the deception, but rather the Mark for believing it in the fist place. ---

They had the Premium and paid DLC model though. A percentage of the player population paid for all their DLC ahead of time, and then DICE released the paid DLC as well so they made money off all content added. BFV is supposed to be all free major content supported by cosmetic microtransactions. It’s a totally different system. ---
