Otherwise, why play on official servers? Just make a private server and play.
There are admins on those servers.
Battlefield has dedicated servers with admins playing on them. It makes plenty of sense, you're just ignorant on the subject.
Everyone playing on official servers has the same problem AND if the posts here are correct tons of people with private servers are too. Including one I played on because I was assured this was only a official servers problem and I was stupid to play on them.
Multiplayer is completely broken. I've had all my progress and characters deleted every day since launch along with everyone on the servers I was on.
Game is broken.
No one is "trying to dictate how you play".
The game had a lot of cheating and is pretty liberal on building restrictions, so players were bugging out the servers daily by duping items or building over spawns, which requires a reset. Were still in the experimental phases of the game trying to learn what works and what doesn't, so server resets are common.
The only "dictating" that happened was suggesting he play on a server privately with his friends so he doesn't have to fear a reset. There's no advantages to playing on live official servers at the moment.
Only mode it hasn't happened to me in is single player which is just to boring to play.
Community servers still have an admin that can reset the server.
A private server is one you or your friend hosts, where it's just you and your friends. This is what you are referring to as "single player", which is just a private server you can invite your friends to via access code.
Alot of people don't like coop with just 1 person or like me have friends that only play milsims and would never play this. So if we want to play we need to find people online to play with. Plus imo it's just more fun playing with 31 other random people and trying to see how the community develops.
Just how I feel and I'm sure others do too.
If you don't control a server, regardless of the game, you risk losing your progression. The more indie/underdeveloped the game is, the greater the risk. Best way to avoid this is to play privately.
I wouldn't have bought a single player only game as none of my gaming friends would ever play thislol.
You can host your own server on almost anything with a quad-core, 4gb of storage and 4gb of RAM (so pretty much any PC from the last decade, even a Steam Deck if you're adventurous).
You can play alone or live host and play with friends.
As someone else said, if you aren't the host, you are at their mercy.
You can also refund if it's not what you expected.
