Awesome. Looks great.

Any idea whether the update is gonna be beginning or the end of the week?

Thanks so much for all the communication. These posts are really useful and I love how often you're putting them out.

It’s Tuesday.

Dang, just come out and say it. Love you man.

Notes should go live Monday morning.
We're doing them differently.

There will be a PDF and a blog on EA.com. But we're also going to start posting them DIRECTLY here on reddit. No need to click through. And that post will be where we collate all the feedback regarding the update.

Is there or is there going to be any kind of road map for Firestorm? I'm so in love with it and I just wanna know what's coming!

Yep! In fact, we're going to be diving deeper into the overall roadmap, as well as putting out a roadmap for Firestorm.

No ETA on that yet, but man, I gotta tell ya, May is going to be insane with the amount of info coming out.

Good to see the dedicated PDF will still exist, and I like how you're consolidating everything into one post for the update.

Have you guys considered doing that with the ToW weeklies? Maybe a running list as the Chapter goes along on how exactly to get every weapon, etc? Re: The Commando Carbine has challenges for last week, but then it gets updated when it's available via CC to buy

That's an interesting idea.

I was about to be sad but then realised that May is in a few days! (where the hell did April go?)

RIGHT? This year is flying by. Next thing you know, it will be fall and we'll be in a whole new theater of war. (AND IT'S GOING TO BE SOOOOO GOOD.)

Thanks for bringing back squad conquest. Any plans on more maps for it? It's one of my favorite modes, but the 3 map rotation gets stale quick (especially if you're mopping the floor with the other team).

We have some plans this summer. I know of at least 3 other maps they're bringing to the mode.

This is sorta tied to SQC but have you guys been looking into matchmaking/team balance at all? I've noticed an uptick in threads about it here and have also noticed imbalanced teams quite a bit lately.

We actually had a call about team balance yesterday, in fact. It''s definitely something that needs a good bit of love.

Did the boin whales just funded your entire year budget? That's great news!

Really glad that FS isn't going to be left as an afterthought, it's a legitimately cool unique experience for me and my friends.

Just wait til you see the Community Broadcast next week. u/PartWelsh has some cool info to share.

Please revamp Firestorm loot system.

That's part of the Quality of Life we're looking to improve.

u/Braddock512 Is there any plans to have the current score shown for games in the server browser? I hate wasting my time searching for a specific map say Arras on Breakthrough only to join the server with 5 seconds left in the game, then the map switches to Fjell 652 and I contemplate the suffering that is life.

Like the live scoreboard back in BF4? That was pretty sweet. I don’t know. But I’ll ask!

any info on the update notes to sprinkle to us yet?

Combined Arms is getting real matchmaking, so you can join randos instead of just friends list.
