I think there’s a fix coming in the next update. I’ll check the notes and get back to you.

These are some old images I was sorting through. Didn’t have time to jump in-game today to take a screenshot.

We push out the update notes the day before the update. When we confirm the date for the update tomorrow, we’ll also confirm when the notes will go live.

I’ve seen some things. But I can’t talk about it just yet.

Check under Notes & Addendums in the OP.

You have to get closer. ;)

I escalated a lot of those threads over the weekend.

Because I live in Los Angeles. PDT.

I’m in a meeting in 4 minutes from now that will discuss this, then I’ll be back to Update the calendar/notes in the OP.

Hahah. Yeah, there’s around 50-100 per day in Cali. Most are small and away from large populations.

You can post it wherever you like or PM me. Whatever works for you!

Indeed.

Thursday. PartWelsh is working on a post and I’m about to update the calendar.

You are not wrong. :)

And he was never to be seen again

Thanks for understanding that I was sleeping. :)

The scope fix isn't in the update on Thursday. They're looking to push it (as it's a server side thing) with Update 4.2.1 on Tuesday, July 30th - but this isn't confirmed yet.

Update 4.2 is on Thursday, July 25th.

Update 4.2.1 is currently scheduled for Tuesday, July 30th, to release the Marita map and the new Elites.

This didn't age well.

Have an awesome and positive day!

No, they aren't "generated automatically". There's a normal weekly cadence of things that happen every week, then there's additional items that we add as we get confirmation from various teams on rollouts.

And yeah, the days are increased incrementally because.... it's a weekly calendar. A week is 7 days.
..... not sure how else to explain calendars.

Have a good one!

Well, it didn’t age well, but okay. I was trying to be a bit playful regarding the fact we stated yesterday that we’d have an update today on when the next game update goes live and folks jumped to the conclusion - which is a little premature - that the update would be delayed.

If you’re insinuating I was trying to being rude regarding my last statement, I wasn’t.

When someone is negative or frustrated, I do want them to have an awesome and positive day. Negativity is a drain on the mind, body, and spirit, and I don’t want anyone to have to feel that way.

I truly wish everyone to have an awesome and positive day.

You can PM me here. I don’t read Xbox messages.

I just looked through my PMs from the last 2 weeks. I don’t have one from you. Not chat, message. I don’t use the chat feature.

I wouldn’t ever maliciously mock anyone.

I may tease and joke with folks, but my intention is 100% benign. I try to use jokes and levity to reduce tension and stress.

I totally understand. One of the things I want to do is to get people to know me - not just as a CM for BF, but as a person. Hopefully, by doing so, there’s less chance of someone taking something negatively right off the bat.

But I know that may take some time. And mistakes may be made.

Well, funny you should mention that! I’m working on an updated format that includes video for the TWiB and OIB posts that will show my personality more. As far as streaming, definitely something I’m looking into (for my personal time).

I didn’t either, til I moved here. Definitely would’ve impacted my decision if I had known. Hahah

It’s okay. The interwebs make it feel like we are all neighbors. I forget sometimes myself. :)

Sorry, I'm a bit confused. What do you mean?

We released the map in June for small modes. We’ve continually updated the community regarding the issues with Conquest on Al-Sundan. Marita coming on the 30th gives time for a bit more polish from the Devs.

Al-Sundan was released on June 25 for our smaller modes.
We did this because during testing we noted a significant crashing issue on Conquest with this map.

Over the last few weeks, as I'm sure you're aware, we ran into some serious snags that the Dev team prioritized - invisibility bug, crashing on Xbox, stability issues, etc.

During the intervening weeks, we've been sharing updates regarding the deployment of Al-Sundan on Conquest as often as we get them.

Unfortunately, despite the fact that the Dev team was able to eliminate the crashing issue, a new issue arose - digital artifacting. (Basically, a giant black box/triangle in the sky when playing on Conquest.) Therefore, the team has held off on releasing Al-Sundan on bigger modes as they work to lock this down and remove that issue so the map can be enjoyed on the bigger modes the way it was designed to be.
It is frustrating that we're currently not able to play Al-Sundan on Conquest - as it was really designed with Conquest in mind, but we want to make sure recent missteps (with regards some of the last updates) aren't repeated and that when we release the map, the community can fully enjoy it.
I'm truly sorry that this is frustrating you, and totally understand where you're coming from.

cagey and secretive over cosmestics that you and others have been caught wearing.

I responded to the ONE inquiry about a soldier set. And I don't work on the marketplace so I don't know exactly when items will come out. And regarding the use of the word "secretive", you do understand that I can't talk about every single thing that isn't released yet, right? So there will be things I can't discuss until a certain time. That isn't me being cagey. That's me keeping my job.

Marita 1st August; yeah saw that start of the chapter before removing the ability for us to see up to week 6 in ToW.

The TOW starts on Aug 1st - which is a Thursday, which is the same day EVERY ToW Weekly Challenge Starts.We've just announced today (via a post from PartWelsh) that Marita will be released next week - currently scheduled for July 30th.

Oh so after having to wait a month for these two new elites does that mean Norman Kinglesy has had the American stuff swapped for British stuff? Like has that Garand belt been swapped for a SMLE bandolier?

The Elites will be released with the items they were designed with.

And still no Al Sundan.

Al-Sundan is playable on small modes. While that's not what we envisioned for the map, we wanted to make sure to get it into your hands - even if Conquest and large modes aren't yet working properly on it. And we've updated the community as much as possible when we get information from the Dev team.

Is there patch notes for us to read? Is there assurances that this update won't f*ck over the game again?

Yes, there are. Per every other update we've released, notes go live the day before the update is released. Since the update is on Thursday, the notes will be posted tomorrow (and include the availability schedule and any downtime information.)

Hey u/Detigo, we did anticipate the fixes for the achievement issues, but unfortunately (and I just found this out, so my apologies) it is now tracked for the next big update.

(From the QoL Tracker)

• Issues with the Elite, Jack of all Trades and Death from Above achievements/trophies.
  • Platforms Affected: All
  • Status: We are looking to rollout a fix with an upcoming update (potentially 4.4).

I'm truly sorry for any previous miscommunication based on information that was available at the time.
