Very good for $10. Best BF since Hardline. Lots of accessibility options.

IT ALLOWS YOU TO LEVEL UP, COMPLETE CHALLENGES, AND PROGRESS IN THE BATTLE PASS WHEN PLAYING WITH/AGAINST BOTS. That alone is the #1 reason I bought the game, and should be the standard in every multiplayer-focused game. I remember the good old days of multiplayer games having bots like in BF2 and 2142, which was taken from us in the 2010s. Hopefully this is a sign of bots making a comeback in multiplayer games, especially with advancements in AI to make it simpler to imitate players. Have the bots trash-talk like they do in Quake 3! It's cheesy, but it's more endearing than being called slurs by idiots online. Most fps games treat bots as an afterthought and don't allow you to experience the full game when playing with them, but not this one. The bots are pretty good on the hardest difficulty, but if you have a few people playing with you, you'll probably win most matches against a full bot team.

Portal server creator on the BF website is very easy to use and allows in-depth customisation of server parameters, even access to a scripting interface for more fine-tuning. Unfortunately can't make portal servers when too many people are playing like right now, you'll get an error because it's not dedicated servers, it just allocates a space for your game on ea servers, and when too many people clog it up it won't allow the creation of new ones.

Wants:
-If the portal has too many servers, create a queue and close servers that have 0 players.
-Please add BF Hardline to the portal.
-Allow uninstalling of specific portal content so users can save storage space.
-Release dedicated server software so we can still use the license of the game we bought when EA inevitably shut it down. Consumers are entitled to a working product when buying a perpetual digital license.
