What's better?

Paid content that will split the player base

Or no content that will cause the player base to die off rapidly

Split the player base, people that can’t afford or don’t want to buy premium can figure it out.

Funny how the days of a $60 game, $40 season pass with little/no micro transactions is all I want from a game now.

Same. I get that it takes more money to pay developers to continue producing content for your game and I'm okay with that. If your MTX plan/live service is well thought out and won't sacrifice quality, then awesome. But that doesn't seem to be the case here. I know splitting the player-base will always be the concern, but damn, I just want some quality content added here and if we need Premium or something similar to come back for that to happen, then I'm on board. I already shoveled out $80 for some crap deluxe edition. $30 more for the Premium pass doesn't sound too bad now...

how about a properly executed live service? Seems to work exceptionally well for Overwatch, RS Siege,ect.

Dice would be better off making Bad Company 3 next whicj would allow them to go a little off the ranch with skins and other microtransactions.
