Not touching it again, without theese:
actually the DLC is usually the beginning of the end as it divides the player base, the previous Battlefield DLC’s were the same
the core number of players will just play vanilla not DLC
the maps should be free but then again I don’t care anymore about playing this game
for me cheating is the worse thing
removed
Judging from the CTE, I doubt the upcoming dlc will do much to help the situation. The new maps just seem recycled and boring. Fort Vaux is especially bad, it plays like it was designed solely for team deathmatch and getting shot in the back. There will be a brief population surge for a couple of weeks before the dlc is forgotten about just like in bf4.
Truth time
Many times on this forum I read that players drop was due to lack of content and not due to the infestation of cheaters.
Now we keep an eye on this number
PC
22,580 (time on writing)
How about people are dropping b/c the game is just barely beta?
Better off taking a player base number when most people aren’t at work. I will be playing the DLC but not during the day. Would imagine that is the same for most.
Also for the people complaining about cheaters yes there are some, no its not as many as you think.
There were some people accusing myself and a few friends of cheating and it was sadly obvious that we weren’t 
First of all, most gamers don’t cheat regardless of game system or chauvinisms. I have watched a whole lot of hackusations and found zip wrong with the players. Yes, there are hackers but no where near as common as people seem to think.
Second of all, it is March now and the servers are disappearing. I had a feeling this was going to happen as DICE just didn’t fix the classes that were wrecking BF3 and then BF4 … namely the support and Recon classes. If any tard can run around ‘spray and pray’ with massive magazines and without any weight penalty, they will use it. But least these fools contribute to the team. If any tard can snipe with unrealistic ease they will and they won’t contribute to team play because they will avoid areas near flags where they will die constantly.
Lastly, team play has been disappearing since BF2 and DICE still doesn’t think that is important enough to make the hard choices that are required to fix this.
Hard choices like adding windage to bullet drop for all rifles. The longer the range, the harder it is to hit a target, the closer players need to be to get points. Most players will drop the lone sniper role fast if it actually takes some thought and serious practice to score kills. To say nothing of moving while shooting … that is just stupid. I dream of the day when I see the last oaf the sniper 2step … step left fire, step right fire step left … If a player sticks to sniping, masters the extra variable and are successful, then these dedicated snipers deserve some serious points per kill.
Most soldiers carry an 8 lb. rifle for a reason .. it works. If battles were fought at distance, armed forces would go back to long guns. But they aren’t, so light weight, full and semi auto rifles are here to stay.
Somehow DICE needs to find the right balance between making a game that is squad based and doesn’t alienate the serious gamer in favor of pandering to the passive aggressive lone wolf snipers. But still fun enough for players to jump on and just have fun. EA/DICE have lost their way in this franchise. I had high hopes for BF1 but so far the soda has gone flat!!!
Wish there were more Hardcore servers to jump in!
Search rTr or Banzore. They have good Hardcore servers, running at 200% damage, like it should be. Or just set your filter to 200% damage and set EVERY other filter to blank, you’ll see the 200% damage servers…
And we know why no private server of the community???
All of dices efforts to attract more players to make them rich have destroyed the entire essence of battlefield .
It’s nothing like the masterpiece that was the game and community of bf2.
It’s over
I’m going to stop playing this game unless they nerf the totally OP horse and ban everyone who ever played the game because everyone is a hacker. Also the Kolibri is much too powerful once you figure out the glitch and that is going to ruin the entire game unless they fix it posthaste.
The maps are pretty, but they are mainly all bottle necks with most of the games being 64 player and no chance of tactical movement around the flanks without being hit by all the snipers and hackers.
I agree 200% Banzore servers these guys know how the game should be played!!! Nothing like playing in regular mode and having to pump 20 bullets in one guy to take him out!
I am about done with this since just today every Frontline server I have joined today there are about 2 -3 people cheating on each one. This is getting out of hand and so far no fix for this.
Cheaters wreck another game and the developer doesn’t give a rip.
rinse repeat and we can only blame ourselves for continuing to purchase these games.
The game is just simply not very fun because of its flaws. That is the only reason anyone would quit. If the game is not fun, why play the game?
Yeah I can agree that this dlc seems to be very close to the original maps, soisson is like st quentin sqar 2.0
it’s simple
overpower planes
no anti cheater system
no unranked servers for scrim and competitive match
stupid nerfs like AA and hellriegel
some grafics bugs
Overpower tanks
some maps is very linear and too much open making infantry easy target and over 80% is infantry
lake of otimization for i5 and amd users
some points in this game
make the in game Experience very frustrating .
