I have many BF XBox friends and whenever I am on the three most consistently played modes I see people on is Conquest/TDM/Firestorm.
Try Solo Firestorm, wait 5 minutes, no match to join. Lame.
Join squad conquest, it's 2 versus 8 the entire match. Games over in ~10 mins.
Close game, wonder why I opened game. Thanks Dice!
What region are you in???
Was it unsociable hours? Never heard of this scenario in NA before.
Yep just like they had "stats" to go all SJW from launch
Funny how that..and everything else backfires despite these "stats"
Unfortunately, it's well understood within social sciences that people who attempt to refute a factual general statement with a sample size of "one" generally have low intelligence.
Example "On average, women are shorter than men"
Idiot "well, I'm a tall woman!"
Me: Facepalm.
In case you don't get the point, the fact that you, or someone that bothers to reply on here says it's not the case is not at all relevant. They have the data and can see what player trends are doing. If this change meant people overall would stop playing the game, then they wouldn't be making it. I don't always agree with DICE's design decisions but they are far from stupid.
Ok mr einstein business expert, name one good decision dice has made with this game. Its been an embarassing disaster since the beta.
The same is true of your self written example. The "idiot" states "well, I'm a tall woman!". That's written as a statement of fact not a statement disputing the average claimed. For the latter to be true the "idiot" would say "well, I'm a tall woman so that can't be true". So even your own example is flawed which makes me wonder who "idiot" refers to.
I'm sure DICE's data is correct and the majority of players prefer to play squad but the key word is majority. This decision is going to alienate some (meh20382 for one) and in a game that is haemorrhaging players at the rate this one is it makes no sense unless this is actually a damage limitation exercise for DICE.
Like you said previously "Can't fix stupid".
yeah cause removing modes helps so much to keep the population.
it's also telling that you post in the firestorm subsection while u clearly don't like or play firestorm. so much hate that you can't even accept others having fun with the mode?
I doubt that's the whole truth. duos is the only mode they "can" remove as solos and squads were there from the start. also solos aren't very popular and the peoke who play it normally don't want to play any other mode. hence removing it won't have a big enough impact on the other modes population. now duos and squads are both popular and I'm sure they also have a big mutual audience. hence removing one will most likely have a positive impact on the numbers of the other. clearly you can't remove squads as it's the "core" mode so to say. you can't have a battlefiled battle royale without squad mode.
now clearly them removing it doesn't necessarily mean the numbers are bad relatively. it just means the numbers arent massively larger than the ones for squads and that they felt the need to concentrate the player base.
