Well this is some good news. I'm curious to see what this "phased" approach is... I kind of take that as it is not going to be turned on full throttle like it is in MP AOW. My guess it is a business decision that they don't want people to have fully unlocked everything and toss the game (if they haven't tossed it already) before season 1 ever arrives.

One way to bring back part of the player base is to completely remove the progression cap in Solo/Co-Op.

@LeftMouseTriggerYeah it will, like every other BF in the past. Every single BF have been a mess on release. Nothing new here. BF4 was the most polished of all, however, only because it was pretty much BF3 with new UI/Guns/Maps and only slightly improved graphics and netcode.
DICE/EA are bound to fix 2042 or the franchise will be dead anyway. They won't allow this, you will see.
4x Battle Pass will come for sure. New maps, new specialists, new guns, new modes etc. + tons of skins and titles.
2042 will only grow. It launched TOO EARLY but has more potential than any BF before it. I see new players all the time. So people are buying (or re-buying) as we speak. Most issues are fixed. Battle Pass inbound. I know for a fact that many people took a break after hitting level 100+ because they want to wait for Battle Pass to arrive. I slowed down too, but still play sometimes.
If everything fails, simply make it F2P like COD did with Warzone and player base will explode. Exiting players get benefits etc. Not hard to do. They pretty much already said that BF is going to be like Warzone going forward. New BF games will be integrated with current BF.
BFV was worse than 2042 for me, by far. I did not even spend 20 hours in BFV but I am already at 200+ in 2042. Best BF since BF3. My favourite is BC2. Yeah we are all different I guess.
BF1 was far superior to BF V too, however only spent 75 hours or so, since WW1 and WW2 does not really interesst me much, in terms of shooters.
People might not remember it, but BFV sucked pretty much just as hard on release as 2042. They had several free weekends to lure people back in. It just had different issues. It's a completely different game today and 2042 will evolve too.
New name, new look, same great benefits: EA Access and Origin Access are now EA Play.
