It wasn't just the game either, the content creators, the little Easter eggs and challenges like the Dice camo, BFF's, the little things Dice did to be part of the community (like bro fists or jeep stuff in CTE), even I've got little birdy legs as an incripted message. Squad up on a Friday from yourself and the gang, clans renting servers, the brilliant DLC's and memes that sprouted from it. BF4 just had this whole feel of togetherness about it that hasn't been repeated. The game was ropey at launch, they acknowledged it and really worked with the community to fix it and what was the result?, One of the best FPS games in the last 20 years. This was the crest of the mountain and now we're slowly going back down again.

[@juliusc.8711]

I've always been the one to think that the devs were never to blame and it was the fault of the marketing team 90% of the time, but in this occasion i can't help but feel like the devs don't care anymore based on the way they reacted to us asking for a product worth the price.

Agreed...for now. BF3 had some issues at launch (mostly wrapon imbalances) that needed a lot of patching. People were irked at the "Premium" option. It turned out exceptionally polished even with the few glitches still left in it. BF4 had fairly significant issues at launch. They were patched out, but it took time. BF2042 could get fixed! It's still new. It's certainly not as inherently "good" as BF4, BF3, BFBC2 (very chaotic and a bit overreaching) but it has potential. I say we give Dice a chance to polish this one up to a nice shine. They've earned it through their previous titles.

I love BF4 vids, such a good time in that game. Regarding the loss of smell/taste Jack:- Everyone recovers at different rates, but you can assist your smell coming back. Obviously there's the "burnt Orange" trick which apparently helps for one or the other. I lost my sense of smell, which actually freaked me out for a bit. I have this morning ritual where I'll open my coffee jar and take a sniff as I pour my coffee, it was the most distinct smell I could imagine, so every morning I'd do that and imagine the smell. Apparently it does help with regaining smell. Took me up to a couple of months before my sense of smell came back to 50-70% and 10months later it's not quite as good as it used to be (85% I'd say), I used to have a crazy keen sense of smell. Hoping it does fully return but better than not smelling at all! Best of luck on the full recovery and thanks for the vid! :)
