No thank you Dr Seuss

Underappreciated reply.

It just sucks that they can't comment on unreleased content but perhaps they can pass the message along as feedback.

We can't, but we do.

Thank you, and thanks to OP too.

u/PartWelsh can you explain this? I am the original OP & the person you responded to.

The comment I made was in relation to the most identifiable of Inisgnia such as Swastikas, Iron Crosses etc

There’s an intense amount of emotional charge that comes from using these types of symbols.

There are plenty of details otherwise embedded into the cosmetics featured in the game that pay respect to the era.

Thank you for your response, u/PartWelsh. I am grateful.

I understand you & Braddock are often met w/ criticism, insults & anger on this subreddit & Twitter, and I consider that an unfair response. I am upset & agitated with this situation, but I still respect your work & your effort.

I also recognise you read the subreddit each day & imagine it is simply not worth responding to repeated, copied posts or mindless shitposts (although they can be funny, if not worthwhile criticism).

While I am saddened by the support ending, I am still cautiously excited for June's updates as I fundamentally enjoy this game. I do hope that communication is maintained at this standard, because your response has been very enlightening and has answered many other questions I had, if not told me about 6.6 and 7.0.

I do have a few small questions, if that is alright w/ you.

Are uniform recolours/reworks still on track for May's update? Have there been any major changes since the last WIP check?

Would DICE consider incorporating insignia into German & British uniforms (existing in SP) with an updated uniform recolour/rework? This would be another positive change, and be good for the r/BattlefieldCosmetics community.

Would DICE consider adding a cosmetic filter w/ 7.0: more details here?

Would DICE consider adding the camera (found in SP & Iwo, if not mistaken) as a Recon gadget in 7.0? Odd request, but it is such a cool, working feature & it would just be a nice touch. Plus, I'd love to roleplay as a war choreographer. Doesn't need any gameplay benefits, have it go in the same slot as Spawn Decoys, maybe?

Once again, thank you. Have a good day.

Are uniform recolours/reworks still on track for May's update? Have there been any major changes since the last WIP check?

I don't believe there's been any significant revision since my last posting of them, and yes as far I know we'll see these changes in the May update, but lets wait for the Update notes to confirm that.

Would DICE consider incorporating insignia into German & British uniforms (existing in SP) with an updated uniform recolour/rework? This would be another positive change, and be good for the r/BattlefieldCosmetics community.

It would be good but its doubtful. We've stayed away from that type of stuff outside of the context of telling a story and that's likely to remain the case.

Would DICE consider adding a cosmetic filter w/ 7.0: more details here?

We won't be implementing that. Again, I recognise how it's of benefit to folks, and I appreciate that the immediate finger will be pointed to the suggestion of always wanting to be grabbing money by creating e...

Hey /u/giveM1A1thompson -

In terms of sharing detail about what to expect for 6.6, and the subsequent Summer Update (7.0), we will absolutely share the detail as we get closer to each of their respective releases.

I'm with you 100% of the way on your message and request, and I know from reading the sub each and every day that this isn't a new request, its something that's shared by all folks here and has been for some time.

The reality of both mine and Jeffs work in this area is that we will not be in a position to engage on future releases until the release themselves have reached a stage where there's 100% confidence across the team that we say will ship, will ship, and will do so in the timeframe that's been indicated.

This approach won't solve your frustrations, it won't stop people from speculating, and it won't prevent the rough vibe around the Community following the news last week.

In absence of being able to share with you new information beyond what has been shared alr...

Sorry to hear that you've had an issue with this. If you can privately message me your EA Help Case Number (and only this, 0 other detail), I can flag this with the Support Teams for further investigation and work to ensure that someone reaches back out to you.

Does this really work? Also its not the konami code?

It does and you're right, its not the exact Konami code but it's in tribute of it.

Mazzaglia

Pc, am currently chatting with your support

If they haven't been able to solve it, the Konami code will force a reset of the UI and it may be helpful to get you back in

Do you guys have anything else to keep the playerbase occupied in the meantime? May's gonna be really.....dry....if we get nothing for the next few weeks.

Our next update releases in early May. In the previous world, we would have had this out last week (by the latest).

April is almost over and we haven't heard anything regarding the update from you in quite some time

Nothing new to share just yet. We're on course to deliver it on our expected timeline. Once we're locked on date, I can share that, and once the content and fixes for the update itself are confirmed as working as intended I can start to share that stuff too.

Its super dry period otherwise - 100% understanding the appetite for news but there's nothing new to share just yet beyond vagueness. Would rather have more substance and be able to back this stuff up with dates.

I'm just pleased you opted for LEGO for the meme instead of DUPLO

It's being tracked across EA by our network engineers. I'm encouraging that we get updates out to you via EA Help so stick them on follow and we'll let you know as soon as we have normality

Edit: Seeing strong signs of recovery now - may take a few more hours to remove any lingering issues but for the most part you'll be able to complete a login and connect back to the EA Servers. All other things on the Battlefield side of things otherwise show healthy signs.

Edit 2: All clear - thanks everyone for the tags this morning. If you experience any issues with connections after this then please do reach out to EA Help so that they can work through some troubleshooting with you.

Edit 3: We've looped all the way back around to a fresh outage thats different from the one experienced this morning in European hours - please follow EA Help on Twitter for updates per the original message.

Oh no, all the characters turned into gunther! Agent Gunther hacked the matrix BattlefieldV!

Loving the rework. Them changing up the pouches to look more british. I hope they're adding the p37 pouches (like the ones on the sandman) to the long coat as well. But otherwise looks great imo.

I think it's Stanley, but I will volunteer that our dev environment has a few different behaviours so it's also possibly Gunther ;)

Posted an update on this here - https://twitter.com/PartWelsh/status/1245760867234447362

If you have purchased him, you'll find that his Unique Assignment is missing and that his Voice Over is not complete. This cannot be addressed until our next update.

If you have him, he won't be removed from your account. He'll be updated next month to the final version.

Definitely a glitch, PS4 Aus servers are usually about 20 full matches at this time of night. Maybe DICE are canning our servers, too?

There's been no change to service in Australia. I'll ask the team if we're seeing any issues with filtering that would stop them being presented but there hasn't been a change to service, nor is there a plan to make changes, in the area.

Can we South Africans please get answers on news we have received regarding our servers being retired??. There was a post made by the community manager Adam Freeman stating this but alot of us aren't sure if this is real or fake. In addition to this we as South Africans love battlefield, our facebook group for Ps4 has a new post every single day sometimes more which proves theres an active player base in SA. Your data states that more SA players play on EU servers through your automatic matchmaking system which is complete BS. We have atleast 3 SOUTH AFRICAN servers running most nights,even more now during this lockdown period (this is just PS4). Your EU servers have 0 lenient latancy which is unplayable compared to every other online game out there why would we even think to play on EU servers. If you go and read the post made on facebook you'll see it has almost 400 comments on how we have been dealt an unfair hand. Yes we're a small community, we paid the money and most of us paid the preorder price even though 2 weeks later you had a 50% discount on the game. Through all the shit your game has put the entire global community from the ingame bugs and ttk changes to the server connection problems most of us have stayed loyal where if this was any other game mostbof the community would have given up. We deserve the same benefits every other country gets with regards to servers. The clan that i am part of(Dogs of War) along side Battlebros host tournaments on your SA servers that last about a month at a time, in the last 4 months we've taken part in 2 tournaments which we can only do with a healthy player base .We have a community of over 2000 players and thats just PS4 alone. I personally do not want to see this community disappear because of your decision based on data i believe to be untrue. I beg you to reconsider this decision, from all of us In South Africa we love this game too much to see our servers being taken away from us. I urge you to go onto Battlefield South Africa ps4 and read the comments and post for yourselves.

Regards SA bf player

Hey /u/salt_and_pepper-xx

The message shared with the SA community was indeed posted by myself and I've verified that over on Answers HQ.

We're collecting all feedback on the topic here, at the link below.

Does that include community games?

It does yes. These will continue to be available, and will be hosted via EU servers.

RitziLauda

u/PartWelsh does that include all platforms?

It does yes.

For full clarity - players who would usually connect to servers in Dubai or South Africa, on all platforms, will no longer find that these are hosted for Battlefield V.

When looking in the server browser, or using quickmatch players will instead be routed to servers in EU.

Also on discussion of planes, they are experiencing a auto pitch up bug and is really severe when using nitrous, especially on the spitfire. r/PilotsofBattlefield

Yeah its realted to deadzones. We're intending to resolve this in the next update. Will let you know through April how that's progressing.
