I appreciate it. I literally didn't even want to post this because I KNOW what everyone wants to know about.
Such is the life of a CM. Just gotta roll with the punches.
Fingers crossed I get some tasty info to share tomorrow.

Armory, Update, Battlefield Currency.
I'll check in with the Devs in the morning (it's like 5AM in Stockholm right now) regarding the Armory issues - and I've already pinged our internal Slack channel to find out what's what.

I actually had a different word in mind when I came into work and found out some items were now pending.
Once I get updates from the team, I'll add them to this OP.

This is going to sound silly, but did you pick one up? I thought the same thing, until I realized I hadn’t looted one.

Is there going to be a This Week in Battlefield post for the current week of 4/1? Anxious for news of an update! :D

I'm working on it, but there's some items that are still pending, so the TWIB will be a work in progress as we confirm items.

I've mentioned this previously here but it would be great to have filters that allow us to opt out of Firestorm related discussions.

Actually this is a pretty good idea. I'll see if we can't add a new filter. We might move over to forcing user to correct their own flair soon.

Kinda offtopic but congrats on the new car!

Thanks. My wife loves it. It's a 2019 Mini Cooper 4dr - black, with black alloys, and black interior. Her car now matches my HD motorcycle.

But what about the rare white tractors

They even deserve their own gamemode!

The BFV Discord is ran by the community (same as this reddit). We're happy to call it our home on Discord but it's independently ran.

No. Its certainly and noticeably slower speed... Aim is increased.

Well this I never really thought about and now I think about it is quite silly, I know games aren't suppose to be full simulation but a little bit a realism like slower running while crouched is expected.

You run slower when crouched.

This is a bit off topic, as a level designer how would you balance art/gameplay design. Like for instance, I create a map that favors more gameplay design at around 60% and then art design at around 40%. Would you do the same? Why or why not?

The best way I worked in my career was "hand in hand" with a Level Artist. Percentage is not important here. Both LD and LA have quite different work to do on a map and it's all about communication and iteration. Tons and tons of iterations. To build a map, both have to work together yet, the LD is the first to work on the map, creating the general layout. Then at some point, when the gameplay is pretty much set in stone, it's the LA's time to shine and make everything looks amazing.

That's some amazing looking footage you shot!
