Any infos on when it’s going to be released the Letters from the front post and the Community Broadcast focus on Private Games with the devs? Also the Community list on the Trello Board was intended to come in this month

Private Games - Our September update will not enable Private Games as we had hoped. It’s absolutely coming to Battlefield V but we have slowed our progress here in order to keep our focus on fixing issues, and ensuring that you're receiving the right standard of quality with each update. Our next Blog from the development team will be detailing the full feature set that we’re expecting with the first release of Private Games. This feature is now planned to release during Chapter 5.

Firestorm Loot Changes/Respawn Mechanic - In blogs published after EA Play, we said that we were working on introducing a radically different Looting system, as well as a Respawn Mechanic similar to the one found in Apex. These plans are presently on hold, and are being re-evaluated whilst we focus our efforts on restoring quality to the core of the Battlefield experience.

First of all, sorry for your loss and sorry for some of the rude comments some people post here. Second, are new Grand Operations coming with the Pacific DLC? We don't need especific information. Just tell us if its something that is still on work or if you will just scrap the game mode.

I can’t discuss anything about Pacific at this time. Sorry. We will have info coming as we get closer to release.

Battlefest leads up to Chapter 5.

My condolences dude. That was a silly joke, never meant anything cynical from it. I apologize

I accept your apology, bud. Last week was hard. Probably best I wasn’t posting a lot. I appreciate the condolences.

But we’ve got a new map coming, Battlefest, and on the horizon - The Pacific. It’s gonna be exciting.

Have you checked for latest drivers? Windows Updates? Hit up EA Help to troubleshoot http://help.ea.com.

If i can't play during Battlefest, am I able to get stuff afterwards similar to ToW?

It should work the same way as Chapter ToW Missions. Once the week is over, it should show up within a week in the Armory for sale.

I'll double check, but I did ask about this yesterday and that was where we arrived at.

Would there be chapter ranks or anything during Battlefest?

Well, Battlefest isn't really a Chapter, so no ranks or Chapter XP - However, we do have some favorite modes returning, and weekly rewards.

ay speaking of, How come the arditi dagger from TOW still isnt purchasable?

Hey LoS, skins and melee weapons that may pop up in ToW Weekly Missions as rewards aren't purchaseable via the company.

Did you have a chance to double check?

Yep! Just now got confirmation.

Weapon rewards will be available for purchase via Company Coin in the Company screen shortly AFTER the Weekly Mission for said reward has ended. (It's about a week later, like normal).
