It makes sense as far as this is a BR change, they have time for BR, they add stuff to BR.

They obviously think they need to have 5-man cars for their 5-man BR invitational bs.

My complaint is, don't come out and say you don't have time to work on the game, then launch a streamer ass kisser campaign where you throw the time you didn't have, after BR.

Just be honest about it, fuck survival you going BR.

BR don't need much of any coding or new content and people have to pay for it, I get it, easy money just saying stop pretending thank you

Yea, I mean I definitely think they are focusing way more on BR, but I think a lot more people play BR than Survival atm. However, if they make BR pay to play then I guarantee you it will kill the game for everyone. I'll be done with this game if they go that route and I would guess 75% of BR players would do the same.

The rest would get so bored waiting in queues and get pissed if they payed to play a BR game and died in the first couple minutes.

"if they make BR pay to play then I guarantee you it will kill the game for everyone"

No it will only kill the game for those that strictly play BR. For those of us that bought the game for its original design and only play BR every once in a while will be fine. And don't forget that %75 is just the daily average BR players, so that includes a lot of us who play BR daily but only because were waiting for survival to get better.

If the game loses 50-75% of its player base where do you think they will get the income to continue new content? If the game isn't making money then it will die. That is the point I am trying to convey.
