Thanks Braddock!

Are you guys going to be at Gamescom this year?

PartWelsh and I will be onsite, yes. I think we'll be mainly in the business lounge during the show, hosting some capture stuff to get ready for the new maps coming this month.

Something special for this update?

We're working to address the most common crashing issues, with some other fixes (spotting scope).

Any news on more ranks or rental servers? Will they release in August?

The updated progression system should be coming with the update later this month.

Maps? What maps? More than one this month?

Yes sir, 2 new maps - Provence and Lofoten Islands.

I believe one of them is Al Susan, since I don't think they counted it as released yet. Maybe the other one is metro?

The team is still working on the bug with Al-Sundan so we can bring it beyond the smaller modes it's currently available on. Operation Underground comes later.
The two maps for August are Provence and Lofoten Islands.

Oh, my bad. Sorry for a repeated question I actually asked for.

No worries! It happens a lot.

Asked a couple of days ago but maybe the CMs didn't see it.

Three month's ago we were told Firestorm looting improvements were coming. Y'all got an ETA you can share?

https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/biprvv/community_broadcast_firestorm_quality_of_life/em24u7t/

I don’t have an ETA to share right now. I’m sorry. I know y’all want the Respawn and Loot Box changes ASAP. Let me try to see if we can get an update.

Will the XP be added too our current level or will it be lost so everyone starts from 50 with the same XP?

You’ll start at whatever level you are when it goes live. If you’re 10, you’ll be 10 working on 11. If you’re 50, you’ll be working on 51.

Unfortunately, I just found out the scope fix failed. They're still working on getting it addressed, but it won't roll out with tomorrow's update.

u/Braddock512 i know you are not going to reply but is confirmed that 2 new maps are only for small modes ? Can we except conquest on them ? Im sure that if its 100% sure they are for 5vs5 only you can comfortably say the truth. But since you are ignoring people asking about this particular question, i have bit of hope that there might be Conquest mode on those maps as well.

Have a nice day.

We’ll be sharing more details on these two new maps shortly - including modes.

We haven’t said a date. They won’t be coming until after summer. I’ve been watching the Slack channel - they’re making some great progress with features, so I’m encouraged.

Thanks! I'm happy to hear this. This Would solve so many problems and questions regarding limited game modes.

I 100% agree. I would want a Grind/Outpost 24/7 server with 200% damage and no recons. (Personally)

The update tomorrow is specially addressing crashing issues.

I think the Naming structure for the patches should be X.Y.Z.

 

X designates the chapter.

 

Y designates the intended patch for this segment of the chapter. Whether the content is specifically planned or not, let these patches represent main title updates.

 

Z designates an unplanned patch to address stability/implement a hotfix.

 

It is very confusing to see 4.2 > 4.2.2 > 4.4. These aren't progressing like we all intuitively expect numbers to progress.

 

With the naming convention I suggest we would have 4.2 > 4.2.1 >4.3, which is self explanatory.

Thanks for the feedback. The numbering is how the Devs number the updates, so we'll stick with that. To explain it:

X.Y.Z

X= Chapter

Y= Main Update

Z= Hotfix

So, we've had 4.2, 4.2.1 (hotfix), 4.2.2 (hotfix tomorrow), and the next main update is 4.4. Rather than do what we did previously, which was name the updates for the community something different than what the Devs use, we decided to share a bit more visible as to how they work and are using their numbering system.

Really. RTX Contest. Get DX12 working proper on PC first.

We're working with Nvidia on that. The contest is FOR an RTX card. It doens't require using one - in fact, I know a lot of console players who create amazing screenshots from their captures on their console.

lol might as well add. more stuttering and performance issues infused with something they call fixes. Landed in firestorm with a guy that had a pointy rod sticking out of his head.

Please report Bugs here (with video evidence, if possible and as much detail as you can provide) so the QA team can look at it. Thanks. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/battlefield-v-bug-reports-en

Whats the point of waiting to introduce rental servers? Are you waiting for the community to get even smaller than EA / DICE already make it seem like it is?

You remove game modes that were in the game at launch because of low player count. Which im sure the majority of the community didn't want.

Then you tease the community with rental servers. But say they wont come out until after summer, when most people will have moved on from this game.....

Makes not one lick of sense TBH.

They’re working on the feature set for launch.
