The thing is, the other game modes are at least believable in a ww2 sense, wheras Firestorm is a complete rip off fantasy scenario. ---

It is not realistic sure, as this is a game… but is it authentic? Not at all and this is the real shame here. It is made for someone else. This firestorm thing in Battlefield.. It’s a bit like if Elton John did a heavy metal album.. his loyal fans would hate it, and it certainly would not appeal to the heavy metal fans as he would be seen as a pretender. ---

The best thing about this game mode is that if it succeeds the battlefield franchise will literally die out entirely and no one seems to get why. Why make another battlefield game, when you can just design some crappy BR game that will last forever and only ever needs upgraded maps, some sparkly guns and some SKINNNZZZ. You better hope this game mode fails so battlefield can get back to being a tactical shooter, with vehicles and good map design. Or this franchise will never recover. ---

Highly doubt that, if it succeeds then there it will mostly become a seperate game. Just like Apex Legends and Titanfall, same universe, difference games. It’s EA we’re talking about so why sell a $60 game that have the iconic Battlefield franchise with a seperate Battle Royale mode done in a Battlefield way instead of selling 2 of its? ---

You can highly doubt what you like but there are facts involved in this. Look at EA, do you think that company wants to spend money developing something so complex and balanced or do you think they would rather design something with minimal resources that only needs a new map once in a blue moon and can sell endless skins and emotes? Hmm i wonder guys what would EA (knowing their history) choose. Hmmmm, this requires lots of deep thought!!! ---
