You said you're not playing anymore, if you're not enjoying the franchise why are you still here?
Do you want to write a bye-bye note too, I'll supply you with a box of tissues!
I just re-installed the backwards compatible version on my Xbox for the lols but it seems to be dead.
Why would you want a franchise you apparently like to fail? I know you don't like bfv but a game failing doesn't necessarily mean a better game replaces it, sometimes it just means the game will die for good. To much risk for the publisher, not enough reward.
Suggesting improvements, complain about bugs yeah that has to be done but wanting it to fail is pretty dumb, unless you just fundamentally don't like battlefield, then I guess it makes sense.
Well obviously you're not cos you're coming in it and whining. But whatever.
Why am I still here if I have stopped playing? You do realize I can ask you the same question. If you're happy to play the current game why are you on the forum?
But I'm still here hoping it'll be turned around and developed into a decent game. I'm not super hopeful. The gay old times of BF2 carried over quite well into Bad Company 2, BF3 and in a slightly diluted but still fun to play way BF4. Hard-line was a crazy take on the whole thing and I actually didn't dislike it that much. The beta was way more fun than the production game.
BF1 seemed to kill the fun aspect of the Battlefield franchise. I almost want to say the irreverence. Battlefield was never "super serial" as a game. It was almost self aware that it was a game and not a simulation. BF1 stepped horribly on that idea, driving it into the mud like a freshly gasses corpse that's been riddled with machinegun bullets in no man's land. But then they made it a Steampunk BF4. Red dot sight vertical grip assault rifles all round and aircraft and tanks that out perform the modern equivalents. Sort of like trying to have your cake and eat it.
BFV has gone down that branch, but worse. There are many aspects of the game I dislike, and that isn't just "dur I don like changes!". The buggy vaulting, the rubber banding, the poor sound quality on many of the guns, the OP nature of certain kits, the uninspired flatness of maps, the kill-streak awards...
I'm hoping for an improvement and I will try again when the new map or factions are released. Till then I'll hang around the forum, if that's OK with you.

Meanwhile in Battlefield 4 you get more populated servers and those fun and genuine "only in Battlefield" moments...
That would make sense. It just really threw me for a moment.
Because it either changes or I don't want it to release more horrible games, I'd rather let a franchise I used to love die, then have this sort of horrible game be the normal for it. All the things I said about the game are true and you know it, stop defending a bad game made by a greedy company
That's my hope
So what you're saying is because you don't like this version of the game you don't want anyone to enjoy it. Rather than just accept that this game isn't what you want it to be you want it to fail, despite the fact a lot of people play it every day. Basically your attitude Is I don't like it so no one should like it. All seems pretty childish to me.
No I don't agree with all the things you said, I certainly don't think it's a bad game. It's had some serious problems and I'd put it almost on a par with bf4 in the bad launch stakes. Greedy company, hell yes they are. EA drive the games they publish into the dirt chasing profits by putting pressure on studios for loot boxes etc, I can't stand EA but I love what dice do. I'm not defending a greedy company but I am criticising the selfishness of wanting a game to die all because you don't like it.
Also on console here and can agree. I honestly don't have many bugs or WTF moments. My biggest peeve right now is that for some reason it seems harder to breach doors than before, so I get killed trying to get into cover.
And also agree on Firestorm. I enjoyed it for a few days but one I went back to 'normal' bfv I was much happier. I worry they think they can just take elements of other games that are popular (customization, BR, live service)and just slap that into BF. It won't make the game like those games that have it, because the fans aren't as rabid about those things. Customization is fine, but not at the cost of more maps and weapons.
I play BF for that spawn-die-spawn-die, big teams, epic multiplayer experience that's been in the last 7 titles I've played. Depart too much from that and the game will suffer, and just generally not appeal to many.
