This was incorrect. (As the map isn't available on Conquest yet.)

Conquest: Al Sundan.............wait...WHAT!?!?!

edit: u/braddock512 This is mistyped right?

*sigh*
This is a mistype. It was originally intended to have Al-Sundan Conquest, but as the mode isn't yet available for Al-Sundan, this is incorrect (and dated information). My apologies.

This better not be a sick prank.

No, it's me stupidly copying the mission doc without triple checking. I'm very sorry. (It's been edited/corrected in the OP.)

Does Marita look like an island to you?

Fixed - Crete is the Dev-Name for Mercury.

I figured as much, you can't catch a break.

On the bright side, I do love the Bombastic Fantastic playlist though.

Nope, not ever. (I'm really sorry for not checking it more thoroughly before posting.)

Yeah, the playlist is fun. I prefer Breakthrough and Conquest on big maps, and the nodes - for the most part - have a lot of focus on team/squad play.

Is Al Sundan really coming tomorrow?

No. (this was taken from the Confluence page - which hasn't been updated to remove the mention of Al-Sundan). I'm sorry.

I understand you must be busy and I don’t mean to be rude but it just seems you guys constantly seem to overlook simple things and it comes across as highly unprofessional. All it takes is one double check to spot the mistake and yet it’s not been noticed.

You're absolutely right and I'm sorry. It was a mistake on my part as I was rushing to get this out and I neglected to proofread the list of maps. My sincere apologies.

I mean, we all make mistakes at work, but man, mistakes like this is not what we need on top of the current mood.

Going forward, maybe not rush announcements, but have somebody else verify and double check? You know, just like testing code before release ;)

Anyway, make corrections, get back on the horse, and go!

Great point. I’m also going to ensure that the draft is ready in the early AM on Wednesdays and that I check with the team that creates these challenges for any random/unplanned changes. I’ll do better. Again, my apologies.

I couldn't imagine the pain u/GIVE_CHAUCHAT would go through if this kind of editing error was missed and it was announced that we were finally going to get the Chauchat. For a few fleeting moments, you would not find one more blissful person enjoying life on this planet.

I shudder to think of that moment.

Mistakes are made and that's understandable. That though...yikes.

Yeah, the moment I saw the replies, I was like "god... no... "

Some of are wondering why week 9 was set back to week 12 today. Any idea?

I believe it’s because the nodes require the two upcoming maps (coming in 4.4 later this month).

Good luck at gamescom this weekend. Thanks again for the emblem codes. Community one looks sweet. Are we going to hear or see anything fun this weekend?

Not this weekend, but we’ll have a whole lot of videos about the upcoming maps coming out next week - from Game Changers and Streamers.

If the origin client starts working, I will. real talk: Do you think 7500 lewis gun headshots without getting flagged is indicative of a working system?

I can’t go into details about any action taken, but this particular one was resolved last month.

And we don’t focus on stats alone.
