One of the biggest franchises in the FPS genre is Battlefield. The franchise set the standard for destruction squad-based combat that emphasized teamwork above everything else. The franchise has hit bumps along the road like the horrible netcode issues of Battlefield 4 and Battlefield: Hardline's lack of eventful multiplayer options.
With Battlefield 1 the franchise had regained much of its popularity for trying something new and was released in a stable condition. Now with Battlefield V on the horizon, EA has shot themselves in the foot multiple times. Here are 5 ways EA has set up Battlefield V for failure.

So steamdeck might have issues and those out there that are anti kernal drm will get a surprise. Depending on your setup you also might get new issues as i know rgb software likes to fight with easy anti cheat.
Daily Video Game writes: "There is a new digital game sale Amazon is offering for both Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One that heavily discounts several popular titles like GRID Legends, Mass Effect Legendary, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and more for Xbox owners right now!"
EA CEO Andrew Wilson admits that both Battlefield V and Battlefield 2042 underdelivered, but thinks they can right turn things around.
I feel foolish for trusting the launch trailer for 2042.
You knew what we wanted, but you couldn’t manage it in gameplay. So, you produced a misrepresentation of a launch trailer that swept up old fans, and then swiftly let us down.
You intentionally tricked us.
I remember the days when we used to criticize EA for re-releasing BF and Need For Speed games with new graphics. Things have gotten so bad, I would would actually love to see a re-release of BF3 or Bad Company 2 with a graphical upgrade. At least it prevents the hacks that pass as game devs from destroying these franchises overnight.
The funny thing is titanfall 2 is by far the best multiplayer shooter they have released recently, yet they failed with that as well.
I think this looks like one of the best Battlefields in a while. Not sure what all the fuss is about tbh.
#1 - Published by the most evil, anticonsumer company on this planet, EA.
No need for more points.

Looks like even cod is low on preorders,
Rdr2 is the only game meeting expectations.
I am sure now rdr2 will be huge juggernaut in sales this year, easily becoming the highest game seller of 2018.
