I find it a shame that EA/Dice went about this game the way they did as they did ruin the community spirit and they didn't listen to the existing community for Battlefield.
that being said i like the game its self and I'm not going to abandon it, if XI wants to do so that's up to them i understand the reasons why but it will still not stop me from playing it. I will aso not go back to BF4 i played it to death im top level have all the weapons and the only reason for me to play it is to open up all the silly little add-ons for the weapons which i got totally bored doing before yes it was a good game may be still is but its had its day for me.
I will be sad to see BF1 go from XI if it does but so be it.
