Yep, that was my point as well. This is an off topic area. I mean it’s valid in that many may want to talk about Apex, but this isn’t the place for that.

Oh god forbid someone mentions another game!  
He’s posted it here so get over it.  
It will be moved if mods think it should be.

In fact, i had this post in how Apex would effect BF V, and that was moved of topic…

forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/179505/what-does-this-new-free-to-play-titanfall-mean-for-bfv#latest

And, the “EA stock drop”, post was moved there as well…

[EA Stock price drop.](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/ea-stock-price-drop/109062)

So, this would likely have to go as well i would think. But thanks OP. I do know Apex is doing incredibly well atm.

The writing is on the wall. DICE will devolve into EA’s in-house engine department. That’s the thing DICE is good at - designing games is not.

It’s obvious that folks like Respawn understand the gamer mindset, DICE does not. Apex is deservedly a hit - obviously the smart use of streamers to promote the game helped a ton. Whoever took care of marketing for Apex Legends deserves a raise.

BFV also used streamers to promote the game, don’t know how much that helped. The marketing for Apex was: let’s say nothing about and just release it. It doesn’t work for every game.

Apex Legends is deservedly a hit, it’s a very polished game, but free games are always going to attract more players. Selling skins and emotes is where they’ll make their money. Fortnite has proven to be very successful at that. If Apex has enough retention power, it could be too.

My question was rhetorical, but I guess you went ahead and answered it anyway. 😉

As far as I know Frostbite Labs have taken over development of the Frostbite engine. DICE just makes games. So that whole statement doesn’t make a lot of sense 😉
