I like the Community Emblem, picked it up last time. I prefer to think of it as "unity", something that's in stark contrast to the large number of players I see every day with nazi-related clantags/gamertags on PS4/EU. Interesting that for all the filtering and progressiveness, they allow support of hate groups to flourish in clantags.

We don't allow or support hate groups. Report them properly and appropriate action will be taken.

Can we expect a new "Letters from the front" Anytime soon? Are we getting news on chapter 5 during battlefest?

We have some info on Chapter 5 coming. Just have to hang tight as we finalize blogs and polish up the details.

Any update of when Chapter 5 might arrive? November or December? Thanks for the updates.

It comes after Battlefest.

How long do you think we need to wait? A couple days? A week? A couple weeks? Just for a rough idea of when to expect it, it doesn’t have to be a confirmed date, if just like to have an idea 🙃

Well, I know we all love an announcement of an announcement. ;) Within Battlefest we’ll be sharing a good amount details on the upcoming chapter. That’s about as specific as I can be, for now.

In origin, if you search for 1488, you get over 30 thousand hits. 1488 is a nazi-related tag. That's a lot of appropriate action to take...

I'm not part of the TOS team and honestly don't have the tools to remove clan tags, so if you find a platoon using that tag, report them and the TOS team - that does have the tools to remove/ban folks - can take action.

Looks like they're back up - or are recovering. Give it a go.

Friendly reminder that the new loot bug introduced in 4.6 (picked up armor, ammo, etc. still showing on the ground though it has already been picked up) somehow has still not made it onto the Trello board.

Re-escalated to the team to investigate.

Gave it a go just now. It was a no go.

How about now? (Also, what platform are you on and what region are you in? I can forward the info if you're still unable to login to Origin/EA Services.)

How do we redeem the emblems? Through The Xbox marketplace?

The codes are for Origin, but they apply the emblem to the entire EA account.

For example:

  • You play on Xbox One.
  • You snag a code.
  • It's a 12 digit code - won't fit in the Xbox Redeem Code area.
  • Using the account your Gamertag that you play Battlefield V on, head over to Origin.com and login with your EA account.
  • Click on My Game Library on the left.
  • When the screen loads, click on "Add a Game" at the top right and enter the code.
  • Boom. The emblem will be waiting in your Armory Shipments when you next login. (If you're currently logged in, you may need to go to the Armory, then the Company, then back to the Armory to have it sync with the new Shipment.

More info on chapter 5 during Battlefest.. well that's not that unlikely, considering chapter 5 (is) the follow-up. If we get to see a trailer, or some extended information depicting some details surrounding the coming chapter within the next couple of weeks that'd be fully satisfactory.

Prepare for satisfaction.

Yeah. We did a while back and put their pics in a thread.

Hi, just wanted to notify the DICE team that there’s a bug, where if you equip an outfit for the Scout class then it equips it for all classes, in short I can’t make my classes look different to each other at the moment, dunno if anyone else has this bug, just wanted to let you know :)

Not a bug. Soldier customization is linked to the characters. If you have Helmut as your Recon, and use Helmut for Assault, he’ll have the same customization. Switch characters for each class to have different customization.

You peeps should put some kind of indication of what's happening because it's honestly pretty confusing and not explained to players at all. Even just an icon to show that you already used a character for another class or something

We did talk about it when the update it rolled out with was released, but a UI indicator in the Company is a neat idea. I'll share that with the team.

I used to have one character for all classes but with different uniforms, but now if i change one of them, it's all duplicates in the other three. Was this changed? Do i need to select 4 different characters now? Or is it a glitch?

Yes, you will need to select a different character for each class to have different soldier customization. With one of the recent updates, the team put a change that allows you to have soldier customization specific to that character, not for the class. (Sorta like a loadout)
