LMFAO I love how they try to frame this as a good thing. Pretty much every major franchise has moved away from DLC-exclusive maps now, including the bloodsucker COD franchise. The real irony of course is the backlash from their last game Evolve is likely what convinced Ubisoft to and Acti to make all DLC cosmetic-only in R6 Siege and Overwatch, which came out shortly after. I distinctly remember the interview with Ubi after Evolve came out and how they tried their best to distance their plans from the mess that was Evolve. I think Evolve was actually one of the biggest inflection points in the industry, their bullshit is what actually motivated some real change.
It shocks me after the Evolve backlash no lessons were learned. GG Turtlerock.
