Well I still don't understand why they keep trying with the Fighter Road, if you know that your game is possibly going to close, leave all the characters free for anyone who wants to play, why keep blocking them, how is this supposed to attract people?

I don't know if they think it gives a sense of reward... because the truth is that it doesn't, just like the new BP, they will take the XP to give us some chests that 7 out of 10 times give you Perk Currency which makes it difficult to complete the BP.
