Okay well from the two comments you have made which are greatly appreciated, we still don't have any information at all on this situation and the future of this? Will you talk about it?

This comment is what I have for today:
https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/ha3j9l/a_question_for_dice_regarding_the_armoury/fv2lvk0/

We have a meeting in the morning tomorrow and I'll spend some time talking about it on the call, find out the direction and plan going forward, and share what I can with the community.

Just to prepare yourself, I don't see rotations as ending, but I do agree they can be improved if they are going to stick around. Even better - I would love to see ...

The Armory isn't going to get redesigned. Full stop. Not at this stage of Battlefield V.

We have a meeting tomorrow morning (7AM my time - YAY!) and I'll ask about how we're focusing the rotations - because there will be rotations (as far as I've been told as of last week) for the remainder of the time for Battlefield V.

Probably true but 1) they could limit it to new cosmetics or even update the code to have it refresh daily 2) They could make the items available for purchase in the customization menu like the original skins. You wanted the writer? Just scroll down, select the writer, and purchase.

I would guess they have this on some sort of AI that randomly selects the options and they aren’t picking it weekly unless they over ride.

Refreshing daily isn't possible because it has to be QA'd every time there's a new Armory update - and that has to happen before it's pushed to production (live) to avoid some of the mishaps we've had in the past. And then there's the whole "I missed the rotation on Monday that had something I wanted - I'm mad!" stuff that exacerbates the situation further.

Don't get me wrong, I know that. But t the very least they should say "We hear your feedback, but we can't give any reports on this at the moment." Something along those lines, like the Battlefront guys do.

It would be a lot better than deafening silence.

That doesn't work because this sub flames me when I do that - even though I've been as active as possible (and posting on Reddit and Forums isn't my entire job as a CM, though it is a big critical part to keep up with the community and share details).

The past few days I've actually had some significant personal life stuff going on (I've had to take a few days off because my apt is being sold and my wife and I have 6 weeks to move while there's still a pandemic going on and infection rates are rising, but that's my own bag of crap to deal with, but it is why I have had been offline for a few days) so you'll have to forgive me for not being as active as I have been in the past. Additionally, with all the things going on in the US AND the World regarding racial injustice over the past couple of weeks, our global channels (within all of EA) have taken a step back to listen to other voices on the internet. This doesn't mean I'm not reading what's being said. It doesn't mean I ...

Hi u/ourcommieman -
We've definitely seen the feedback regarding Company Coin accrual rates and appreciate your post (in addition to all the others.)

As you mentioned, you can earn Company Coin through Daily Missions. (It's around 300 or so if you complete all 3 Daily Missions.)

From the ...

Roger, good copy.

"Dev's just can't stop making decisions that alienate the main player base can they?"

The only reason I still play is because I found a group of guys that enjoy a modicum of realism. Otherwise from it's been strategic miss step after strategic miss step.

I'd throw them under the bus, too.

I'm not throwing anyone under the bus. Just stating facts on how the company works.

While it's not what the community wants to hear, the dev team have stated previously - and I shared this again 6 days ago in this thread - there are no plans to faction lock Elites.

I've definitely shared the feedback from the community - the good, the bad, the ugly - and the Dev team have discussed the feedback with various cross-functional teams and a decision was made.

I don't make the decisions. I just share with the community what the Devs have decided.

What does this mean? There is nobody monitoring Firestorm reports?

I'm referring to the in-game leaderboard in matches that is available with MP games. As noted above by another player, this isn't visible in Firestorm. Therefore, the normal process of reporting someone in-game doesn't work so the alternate process is required, which isn't a great option.

Hi Braddock, since a week has gone by I was wondering if you have any updates from the Dev Team lately?

RE: Night maps, it doesn't look like they will be available, but Freeman and I are seeing what options would be available (we're also talking about extreme weather options).

RE: AA tweaks - I haven't heard anything regarding tweaks, but the team is looking towards the next update and I'll see if there's any updates/tweaks/adjustments. I did highlight this in my community report and in a couple of our calls with various teams.

To report on PS4 or Xbox One:

  1. Open the Options screen.
  2. Open Scoreboard.
  3. Click the player’s persona name.
  4. Choose View Profile.
  5. Click Option.
  6. Select Report.
  7. Select In-game behavior.

Hi Braddock,

Just following up on your reply last week. For a bit more context (which you may already be aware of), much of the frustration on this issue comes from the confusing and tedious cheater reporting process combined with frustration with the inefficacy of the reporting system (see e.g. the BFV forums or r/firestorm).

From my personal experience on PS4, this is doubly frustrating given the absence of the Origin system and when the official EA instructions for reporting cheating players (referring to this) makes reference to navigating through the scoreboard (which does n...

Absolutely. The in-game reporting process for cheating/abuse doesn't work for Firestorm due to the fact that there's no leaderboard for Firestorm.
And the alternative way to report - create a ticket at EA Help that gets escalated to the TOS team then to the anti-cheat team - it's too clunky, not intuitive, and honestly, most folks can't be bothered by it.

I do agree that teaming up in a solo mode to imbalance the match against players that are playing legit is, at best, griefing (TOS violation). At worst, it's outright cheating. I've hit up Sean, our Anti-Cheat Dev, on the best way to address this - via reporting and taking action. I'm waiting for a reply, then will share with you all what the team tells me.

Lol nice one Braddock

No, it's not fine and you should report them.

Hi.

The last time I checked with the team, they have no intentions of locking Elites to particular theaters/factions. I have no indication that this will change.
