now the devs are saying that they will stay away from reddit and stick to their own forums. I think I'm going to get this game.

What is amusing about this whole ordeal is the BattlefrontUpdates mods have been taking money for their site/youtube channel through their connections from the subreddit for awhile. Which includes mass advertising the site/channel.

The devs will be back. Like it or not Reddit is the place to be for a large community of casual players who aren't willing to go to multiple forum sites. That being said it would be better for them to make a stronger maybe smaller community on their own site for the longevity sake of their game.

I plan on getting it too.

If you think this is the end of all EA stealth marketing, you are sadly mistaken. This is just a very basic PR move. They'll still do outrageous shit like spamming anti-boycott petitions with bots and staging fake protests against their own games, and that's just a part of what they've been caught doing. Every AAA producer stealth markets and will continue to do so.
