Heads-up: We're added Operation Underground two more times into the Rush map rotation, and also adding an additional round of Rush per map, so that you play as both attackers and defenders before the servers switch to a new map. (Will update the TWIB when I’m not on my mobile).

What info do you need to share? Just push the 1 button and enable the mod for everyone who is interested in playing it. What reason do you have to keep domination and frontlines offline? We paid for it remember? Core modes for BF5 release with 60 dollar price tag.....

What info do you need to share?

I was asked a specific question and I don't have an answer, as it's not my decision which modes are permanent or limited-time.

As much as I hate to be that guy... The "already looted loot still showing on the ground" bug has still yet to make it to the Trello Issue Tracker despite seeing other items added as recently as yesterday...

I believe they're still testing the fix for it. I'll work with Jaqub to see where we are by Friday and if we can get it up on the board.

I'll fix it for you: "Hey Nat, I don’t have any info that will please you to share right now."

Well, technically, unless I say "It's going permanent on X date", your "fix" is basically stating the obvious. LOL
(This isn't me being sassy. It's just true, unfortunately. And I totally understand.)

My reply is accurate - I've not been told any details yet on if/when it would be permanent. I can say that when Private Games does release, the option to have those modes will be there so 24/7 Frontlines servers can be setup.

So can you guys actually confirm yet whether we will see Chapter 5 in 2019?

Confirmed.

Thank you. Wasn’t trying to be a dick, just looking for some sort of boundary on what ‘after battlefest’ meant.

I understand. :)
Unfortunately, for right now, that's all I can say.

Well can we at least know when we're going to know more? Lol

I’m not going to use the S-word nor will I “announce an announcement”. ;) lol

Just keep an eye on the official channels for the next couple of weeks. That’s as specific as I’m able to be. (Sorry)

Just wanted to ask: is anybody seeing enemy damage in excess of 120?

I've seen it a few times in the past few days, but at the same time my Internet connection has been acting and most of the time I'm lagging at least ~80ms behind, so I don't know if that's what causing this.

This lag happened only occasionally before the last update, which was supposed to improve on that, but now it's much much more frequent. I can't really tell if it's my connection or the BF client :/

/u/drunkkz3 hey Florian :) By any chance did you get other reports of the 120+ damage on enemies as of late? I'm asking you because I seem to remember you were involved with the fix. Could it be because of the increased latency? Sadly I don't have any videos showing the issue, but I definitely remember damage up to and sometimes exceeding 130 by 2 or 3 points, and AFAIR you said in a comment that damage up to 120 is okay because of the chance self-heal kicked in, and damage beyond that possibly being a problem.

Thanks! :)

I have not heard about 120+ damage on a single target in a short amount of time but keep in mind that with self-healing, you could deal a pretty high amount of damage on a single target potentially.

In other cases, there are chances that you deal damage to multiple players somehow (lined-up targets for instance).

If you have some video examples that look weird to you, please let me know!

TBH i really wanted to head the announcement to the announcement, LOL, not joking I understand you can't say nothing and why. BTW, another question hoping you can answer: what about Chapters after 5? Are we getting an updated road map for what comes after (i.e. Ch6) or at least what it is going to feature? :)

Definitely can’t answer anything about what is after 5 or I can’t talk about 5 yet, now can I?

So, after 3 months or so I decided to give the game another shot. Started up Origin, BF didn't update. Tried to start the update manually: "not enough disk space".

I have 80 gigs free space on that drive, the whole game installation has 68.

To be quite honest I can't persuade myself to care enough anymore to even want to know if the gamedevs f*ed up to the point where a two map patch to a 68gig game takes more than 80gigs, or the origin devs f*ed up the patch procedure.

Click Repair. Should be fine. For more help, contact EA Help http://help.ea.com.

/u/Braddock512 : Are you watching the submitted videos or are you just going to pick the winners by lot? Just curious since my video hasnt been watched till now.

We’re watching all the videos later today and tomorrow. (I got pulled into jury duty, so I’m taking care of it when I get out of court.)
