Battlefield 2042 started as a BATTLE ROYALE game! Why the game launched in SUCH a BAD state!

Tom Henderson has a good track record when it comes to Dice leaks. And in a recent 30 minute video he broke down his insights on the troubled development of Dice’s and EA’s latest triple A first person shooter. Some of the details mentioned in that timeline breakdown, may explain why the game was released in the broken and messed up state that it was. It was originally planned to be a Battle Royale ONLY game and only in April - August 2020, development shifted to the current version of Battlefield 2042. Which gives the game a mere 18 months of development time. In this video I break down my thoughts on the matter and laugh at EA for destroying their FPS IP’s. Hope you enjoy.
