Does sony/psn use straight usd$ or is there an online currency? We have Microsoft points...
Just a hunch. PC is being delayed too which is odd. Not sure how transactions are handled there, but, servers can be run a lot easier on PC anyways

PSN uses real world currency.

I just simply wish they'd focus on adding new shite, and balancing/tweaking gameplay mechanics instead of figuring new ways to nickel and dime their playerbase.
But, they are in the business to make money so, I understand. But I don't like it.
Ecm jammer and reactive armor should take time and experience to grind... Not money

Have they added private servers to practice flying or is that still not an option?
Read this comment on Reddit. Haven't seen it confirmed yet though.
"I hear rumors that even on the official dice servers there is no longer a minimum player count for a game.... So you can pick an empty server and practice your chopper skills and or jet barrel rolls."

Did you not see the patch notes, jeff? They pretty much balanced/tweaked every weapon and attachment combo in the game.

frick off servers for flight school types like me
That's what I would like if only to get better at flying. I may try it on my phone, because my work computer doesn't let me get to a lot of gaming sites.

That would be cool but then every attack heli would be fully kitted out from kids like me just capping every conquest flag on an empty server

As long as gamers accept being nickeled and dimed, companies will continue to do it.
If a large percentage chose to ignore DLC, it'd change. But that ain't happening.
I'm okay with renting out servers. Purchasing unlocks, though, is pretty shitty.

With most of them using their parent's credit/debit cards anyway, they likely will be now in any server since they can buy upgrades.

I always thought this was a preference for the people who own the server. At least on PC anyways. Some of them actually advertise "minimum 2 players for game start" or whatever. Some let you run solo, some don't.

i remember from way back in january they were talking about allowing players to run around in vehicles and jets if the player count was too low to start the match... and then when the player count was high enough to have a game, it would reset everyone to their spawn and the game would start

True.
Oh well.
Can't buy skillz.

this is the first console game that i can think of that has allowed players to rent/own their own custom server... before we had to always play whatever the developer told us to play

If they make it where the server acts as a nonranked server until a required number of players show up then they can practice flying and capping flags and what not without actually unlocking anything
