    Lol, visit the EA BF6 forums. That’ll tell a different story. Plus they probably count player numbers on “free weekends”, too. Nothing but a crapload of cheats showing up on free days and making new accounts a week later, a common complaint in the forums along with menu problems, weapon balance issues, and people abusing aim assist with devices like the Cronus. It’s a dumb stat-padder laden arcade shooter now. Honestly the worst player experience in the BF series, and I owned/played them all.

      Shareholders don’t care about forums, they don’t care about critical reception, they care about money and unfortunately, for some fucking reason, people keep spending money on that stupid fucking series.

      Of course, we’re only about t-3 years until we get the “was Battlefield 6 an underrated classic?” articles and videos start getting made.

      Probably the most masochist fanbase out there. Series hasn’t been good since at least 2 but they keep coming back for more…
