The huge outage was extremely strange, I heard it affected almost all EA titles?

It affected literally all EA titles.
It was a DB config issue with our authentication protocols. Literally no one could login on any platform.

Is there a possibility that we would get to see some sort of schedule for armory rotation that was mentioned? The system right now doesn’t seem to be that great. Thanks.

I really want that RAF headgear that was there since beta and I am still waiting for it to release

It's going to be bi-weekly.
I'm still working on getting details (that they'll let me share) to roll this out.

Please Check This Post . We're facing so many issues with the recent patch. Please provide some insight on how these issues are going to be dealt with this week, or must we endure these glitches until the next patch? u/braddock512

I've escalated all of those to QA/Dev teams for investigation. Once they create a JIRA ticket to track it, I'll update you.

So is that every two weeks or twice a week? Thanks.

Edit: Not sure why I'm being downvoted, "bi-weekly" can mean twice a week or every two weeks.

In this case (because bi-weekly is one of those two meaning phrases) it would be every two weeks.
Good catch.

I'm really sorry you have nothing better to do than to troll and spam negativity on every single post I make.
If you actually ever want to provide constructive feedback or have a conversation, I'm here. But I won't be replying or acknowledging anymore of your spammy sass in the meantime.
I do wish you a good day.

Any news about the pilot and tank crewman customization? I really want the see seamus in the tank.

At this point, there are no specific plans. If that changes, I'll let you know.

Thanks for the response, much appreciated.

(I gave you an upvote. People are really not using the downvote correctly lately.)

As most of the issues were reported immediately after the update, hopefully the team already have the tickets raised & fixes ready & tested. The issue with the EA servers was completely unrelated but it compounded everything else tbh. Can you give us any hints on this new urban map??

That is correct. I'm going to confirm the JIRAs and check the status.

And... no I can't give any hints.

But keep an eye on this subreddit tomorrow.

In conquest, can we get some sort of system that's tells squad leaders where other squads are heading?

That'd be cool. I'll make sure to mention it to the Dev team.

I still can not login to Battlefront 2 or BFV are they any suggestions for getting back online?

Have you contacted EA Help to troubleshoot with you? They can pull up your account details and walk you through getting back online.

i love how /u/Braddock512 didn’t even bother to acknowledge this.

I reported a lot of the bugs to the team, and they’re already looking at a lot of things. Sorry i can’t respond to every comment - I try my best. And I get tagged on more than just Reddit, so I’m kind of all over the place. We do have a great resource on Answers HA to report bugs. Which we recommend using at it helps expedite creation of tickets. Have a good day!

i understand. However a lot of people are going to see top voted comments. So i would highly recommend that community managers acknowledge it by posting some comments.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Just checked my spam folder just in case and it's not there either. Want to send it again? Or dm me and I'll send you my address. Thanks!

What is your Origin ID?
The emails were sent to the email address on their EA Account.

I submitted this through the web portal and via email to the listed address in the entry rules.

Gotcha. If you didn't get an email yet, you weren't one of the finalists.

However, we do have a secondary list for backups should the winners not respond.
