What would be the quickest modes? Guess SQCQ and TDM?

Probably.

If you owned, I apologize. I’ll check the link you sent. From the comments replied to, it did not appear that way. We as a community must be able to rely on you, bc our faith is lacking in Dice for most of bfv (yet still a game I openly enjoy, but expectations have not been met).

You don’t have to apologize. And I understand.

/u/Braddock with the news that next weeks update is being delayed to further test it some more is it possible for you guys to go back to releasing patches every 2-3 months?While patching BF V monthly is a nice idea I feel it hurts the game more in the long run as it doesnt give you guys enough time to test it for bugs.

That wouldn't be my decision, but I did share that feedback from the community with the Dev team with today's report.

But you said next week just recently. So, if it’s not next week, it is delayed, per you. Your answer doesn’t actually get to the issue of when you said the map would release. You are our community manager. We are to believe you. But, that’s difficult without at least an acknowledgement that you, our community manager, are back tracking. A simple acknowledgement of your error would have went a lot farther than saying we are not behind schedule, because you said it would be here next week and now we know it won’t be. Shit happens, but own it.

I did own it. And explained what happened. And I am sorry that it’s frustrating. https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/cbiixi/xbox_hotfix_402/etglgr6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app

I hope so. I’m tired of getting stuck in the window and having to crouch to get out, while getting shot at. Lmao

Well, it only failed partly because of reddit, and partly because of the you tubers, who interestingly enough use this site.

However, as i said, the ultimate failure, was by DICE listening to the feedback of this crap, that can not be verified in any way, as compared to the official site that can, where only 30 people seem to post there, being DICE don't GO there..

Did this site also run CTE over at BF1? And let Marbleduck and every other crackpot kill that game with ttk 2.0? I mean, who the hell is asking for this crap lol. HERE, and only here.

As i said, you have a right to run a site. But my dollars that i spend on games, should not be dictated or influenced by a bunch of kids on a fan site. That's just bad business practice, and no surprise as to where DICE/ EA, as well as this game are in this juncture.. Again, it's not your fault, but squarely on DICE.

You see more negativity here than you do positivity, so its obvious we dont censor or influence.

Hey Jeff, Is there any contingency plans if this hot fix fails like last weeks? I am meaning specifically in reference to the TOW chapters.

I dont need to know what the contingency is (yet), but as no ones come out and explained the issue and its failed one hot fix it seems like a substantial issue. If it fails that means for 3 weeks those of us on Xbox have been battling to get into matches praying to do enough for the full challenge, so we dont need to try and fight our way in all over again. For some it's been neigh on impossible.

I appreciate you guys are working on it and that it's often not productive to think in failure but I feel the need for that warm and fuzzy feeling that no matter what myself and my xbox brethren wont just be told to deal with it.

Wow man, i have to say, i just never knew that, but now i know what the hell has been going on here. That's just crazy having Braddock and these folks at DICE, using a site is literally run by fan boys? That's just bad business , and likely why the game has failed.

But i sincerely thank you for letting me know,. THAT'S what's going on in this place lol.

We do have mods that dont play Battlefield. The just like to moderate on various subs.

But you're right. Why would people that enjoy a sub, also want to help run a sub. It should be people that hate the subreddit that run it. That makes total sense. Also I am sure you are right that the game has failed because of reddit.

Thanks, it's appreciated. Folks can be a little more patient when they know they won't be missing out.

They're looking at doing something for Xbox One players who literally can't play without crashing. I'll push to find out more info tomorrow - and will let you know as soon as I hear anything. It's not fair that you miss out on Chapter XP because of our issues.

Ok cool. Do you know if both Al-Sundan and Marita will drop with that patch? Or is Al-Sundan coming in August now?

They’re still working on the issues with Al-Sundan.

Yesterday you said that we could expect it next week.

I get that the dev office must look something like this right now, but people are a bit salty that in ~24 hours, we’ve gone from the joy of expecting a new map (which, bugs aside, should be top priority) to the disappointment of hearing that a lot of critical bug fixes, as well as that new map, are still a ways out.

You’re right, I did say that yesterday, as that was the plan based on information from a meeting yesterday morning. But, unfortunately, the significant issues we’re experiencing with BFV right now - invisible players, crashing on some platforms, stuttering, FPS drops, etc - have forced us (and I think it’s a good thing that the focus is on fixes) to take a little bit more time on this upcoming update to get BFV in a better state. I’m truly sorry for the disappointment - and trust me, it’s shared.

May I make a personal comment? Stability, fixes, and improvements should take priority over everything. I know that for some it may be unpopular, but would you want to play a game with invisible players, crashing, etc. on a new map so you don’t enjoy it and get more mad? I wouldn’t want the experience of a new map to be sullied by these bugs if it meant only waiting another week or so. And that’s just my personal opinion, which you may or may not agree with.

Is that right? I'm asking sincerely. DICE doesn't run this sub, but "fans"? That may answer a lot of questions if true.

And if so, why do DICE use a fan support site, that could be manipulated god knows how many ways, and not their own official site? I'm not getting on you, but them if what you're saying is true.

Probably also answers why i have to wait 10 minutes between posts, and don't have the power to upvote or downvote anyone, where on all the other subreddits like BF1..i do..

We run the BF1 sub too. The BF4 and BF3 before that. This core group of mods has been around for a while. I guess they could run their own Reddit, I can't speak for them.

It wasn't really a vague response at all. You can't really give a date for a patch to go live when it hasn't even begun certification. They obviously can't say its going to release on X date if there isn't a certainty that thats the case.

People would be 10X more upset if they said "The patch will release on X date" only for the patch to be delayed.

Upvoted because this is factual.

So the invisible soldier fix will be in the next update?

That's the intention. They've made a lot of progress on it so far. It's one of the top priorities right now.

Again, vague answers. How boring. I so understand players need tolerate until 30 July invisible players? When will you start saying the exact dates? You do realize that this is how you respond throughout your life cycle? What is difficult to say "the update is scheduled to release July 30," and then players just leave the game up to July 30 . But you need to answer "end of July" which could mean either July 23 or 30. Do not be surprised that the players after these answers are angry at the developers. What you call transparency in practice is only promises and disappointments.

Part of the dev process is Certification - we don't say an exact date until we've passed Cert - with Origin, PlayStation, and Xbox. Because if one of those fails, then we have to resubmit with a new build.

So, rather than "promises and disappointments" by stating a date right now that may or may not slip, we're stating that it's at the end of July. This gives us - CMs - time to ensure we have all the notes and details ready and gives the Devs time to review the update, test it, and ensure it's ready for deployment, while adding additional fixes that are critical to the community.

Dice doesn't run this sub dude. If you post unnecessary rants then it gets removed. Check the rules first

Exactly.

DICE doesn't run this sub, this sub is ran by fans who are lucky enough to have DICE's backing and support.

Also, a little tip for the future: Titles in ALL CAPS ARE A HUGE TIPOFF to a ranting post that will draw our attention will thus be removed.

Have a great night.

Saying "you sound like a bitter old man" does not mean you are. It just means that your post could be construed that way, in my opinion. With that being said, I don't think I should be able to have that take away when the post is coming from a CM (which is why I said something). You certainly sound bitter again in this response, regardless of the nice-ities at the end. Perception doesn't have to equate to reality you know?

 

The comment was trying to imply that your work outside of work, shouldn't be. Saying DICE should make employees play, doesn't take away from the fact that you already do, a lot. I wasn't trying to make it negative, I was just pointing out that you were taking the conversation away from the point, while sounding like you were complaining. I think that was a fair critique.

 

Thanks for the (limited time) downvote Jeff. Perception, is not necessarily reality, stay positive.

Your comment made assumptions and accusations of things I didn’t say and my reply was to clarify that erroneous assumption. Nothing was implied.
