Thanks man! I do apologize, I found your posted videos of the finalists on the Battlefield forums so I should have looked before I asked!

Hope you had an awesome birthday weekend!

No worries!

It was pretty great. Went hiking in the mountains with my wife and pup, smoked some brisket and ribs, drank some tequila, and relaxed.

Any new weekly tasks/assignments for BOINS?

No mission this week.
We'll have ongoing weekly missions and playlist rotations once Update 7.0/June Update drops.

Heya /u/Braddock512 is there any news on potentially adding DLSS 2.0? Also, is it possible to receive an europe pc BFV key for a friend of mine? I'd love to introduce him to bfv!

I checked last week about the DLSS 2.0. It doesn’t look like it’s coming to BFV.

Codes go out on Wednesday and Friday.

u/Braddock512 Hello, this is not technically BFV related, but anyway. As you know, BF4 still has an active playerbase and recently some players have returned to BF4. This might be a long shot, but is it still possible to add last missing content update for BF4? I'm talking about "Infiltration of Shanghai" and "Golmud at Night" maps that never left CTE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbG5KsIVo6o I still miss that golmud night variant, it was really cool map when I played that back in CTE.

Definitely not something in the books. It would be cool, but if those map variations didn't make it out of CTE when the game was still in development, there's no possibility they will be brought out now.

Not the info I want to share, but it's what I got. Sorry, bud.

Hey u/Braddock512 hope you are doing well. Got any spare BF4 or BF3 PC codes ? I just managed to build mine and always wanted to try it out.

I'll be dropping BF4 and BF1 codes to some folks on Thursday.

Is that picture a new map? Doesnt look like wake island since it has what looks like an island but it somewhat has the same sunset/sunrise. Pacific storm doesnt have that orange color to it. Pacific storm is light blue or a cloudy blue gray. I may be wrong and it is pacific storm but just a different coloring.

Not a new map. It's a screenshot I took on Wake Island. https://www.flickr.com/photos/157966307@N08/49235568937/in/dateposted/

Most of the shots in the posts are from spectator mode screenshots I've been lucky enough to capture. Usually I grab about 30 shots per session and then go through the ones I like most. I try not to do any major editing, especially with tone or color, but I may add a bit of light to one area or lens flare if it suits the image.

u/Braddock512 Will you be able to link us at some point all and/or some of the submissions for the Battlefield Nvidia Trailer contest?

I'd be super interested in seeing everyone's creations! I've spotted a few on YouTube so far, and they have been absolutely excellent!

I can probably share the full list of semi-finalists.

Random question u/braddock512 will we be seeing any organizing be done for the assignment system? For example some of the past assignments obtained in the boosters for previous chapters cant be completed and are just taking up space. Thanks.

Have you tried completing them and it won't let you?

well thats pretty underwhelming

We’re getting our next update - the June Content Update - ready, so it’s a bit quiet this week.

Literally called out that there's not much going on this week as the team prepares for the Jujne content update - first thing.

Once the date gets locked (potentially for next week - but that is not locked yet, so it could change), we'll have more details on what is coming in the content update, the road ahead for Battlefield V (regarding weekly rotations and missions), etc.

I've noticed some bad examples have been corrected already, which is appreciated, this said I've just ran into another annoying one: "see me" is censured, as in "did you see me?".

Yep! I've had notes from the team over the weekend that they've been deploying live changes - one of the benefit of the new system) that some of the worse offenders are out.

Thanks for the new ones, I'll tag them in for feedback on it.

Excellent! We found out that it would grant the 100BFC for completing.

This Week in Battlefield V:

Get a code from the community manager to play another Battlefield game.

I was also giving out BFV codes.

We’re doing an entire company wide program giving out codes for most of the games during the coronavirus “shelter-in-place” situation to help keep people entertained and safe.

Considering this is the BFV subreddit, it would make sense to give out BFV codes (and I have .. a lot), but I’m also giving out codes for BF1 and BF4 for folks who may haven’t played them, or want to get their friends into them. I support the whole franchise of Battlefield.

Thanks man!

I can confirm that it does work.

I got the 200 today and I finished up the TOW today and got the 100 from the weekly.

Thanks for getting back to me ;)

Woohoo! I’m so glad to hear that.

Is the system akin to Star Citizen where Chat is a service running in the server from its own server with its own tools?

I’m only using them as an example because one of their Devs was recently talking about some server side stuff and included that bit about it being separate.

Not familiar enough with the new tech stack to say. Seen it done in other games though and I see how that would provide more flexibility.

Do you play much Star Citizen? How is it? Big Elite fan, looking forward to a final release of SC

Homie, i just appreciate knowing a bit more about the process. That and knowing my criticism/frustration are being heard means a lot.

And while it's not a tool developed by Dice themselves it boggles the mind that they'd somehow not have the pull to influence changes or fixes over that time period, or at the very least raise these concerns and have them acted upon by the appropriate teams within EA. Especially knowing now that it doesn't even need to be tied to a major game update to fix.

These things are backend changes and not client side. We don't need to deploy patches to adjust things here (which is why I'm super keen for folks to show and share more examples so I can help to prove where something isn't behaving as intended).

Why is a chat filter so important for a mature rated game in the first place? Where is the option to disable it for those of us with a mental age higher than 12? I can handle a few naughty words, what I can't handle is seeing **** all over the chat every time someone wants to communicate.

Because while you may seek to use it for the purpose it's originally designed (communicate with your team), others don't.

More players like you pls

It's fair to be able to expect a harassment free environment when you're playing a Video Game, and chat functions can sometimes provide places where this can occur.

Your point is fair. Characters in our game Swear, and the content is openly violent. It carries appropriate age ratings in different countries all over the world and is compliant with different authorities and regulatory bodies.

I can understand that in certain circumstances, it may clash with what the game is, and who's expected to play it. As an adult, I don't have a problem with swearing and I swear pretty liberally myself, often in place of punctuation.

'Good f*cking game lads that was close!'

'sh*t the bed what the f*ck was that?'

'I just got f*cking ruined by that tank, careful'

The challenge ...

I just can't understand why it's still an issue when it's been overly aggressive and known as such for almost two years of Working on it.

There's a trend here that we've pointed out repeatedly during the life-cycle of the title where a complaint is raised, someone on your end states its being addressed, nothing changes, and then the studio just stops talking about it.

It's frustrating, and in this example sure, it's a very minor frustration. But, it's still a pattern of inaction and lack of follow-through that has landed us where we are today. I mean, we still have no working team-balance, AC, or robust community tools and the game is about to be put into a maintenance mode.

I just don't get the why behind it all. I don't get why this game feels like it was given such a blasé level of commitment from everyone but the Community management team.

edit: A word

You're right to point it out, I won't ever dismiss fair criticism.

Relative to this topic on the Chat filter, this isn't something that's been developed exclusively for BFV, it's been worked up to support all titles and act as the standard going forward for any game coming from EA. This is why we've not been able to act on this sooner, because work was being performed elsewhere that we understood would work to help address the problem down the road.

We're the first to make use of it which is why I'm keen to show more examples back to the team where it's proving a hinderence.
