The irony being that this sub was created in big parts to get away from the overwhelming (and overblown) negativity on the main BF subreddit. see edit for rewording

DICE and EA have so consistently chipped away at the goodwill and passion of the community that now we're here... Shame.

About the author: Playing BF since the 2004 Vietnam, put more hours into BFV in a year than any of the other ones over their lifetime but haven't played since mid-December... hell uninstalled like two weeks ago. BFV is the BF game I want to be playing but it's not enjoyable anymore and that's just a massive bummer.

Edit: Okay, let me reword that first part since it was like 7AM when I posted and my brain wasn't spooled up all the way yet. So this sub wasn't so much created as an escape from the main sub's negativity, but more hyped as such. As a safe haven to discuss the upcoming game.

Not true. We've maintained all the title specific subs, completely separate of r/battlefield. It wasn't created due to anything over there. When the next title is released, we'll make a new sub for it and again run it entirely as it's own entity.

I know you're trying to make a point but wanted to state that your first point is a common misconception.
