see if you're not unintentionally installed the gen4 version on gen5, these days consoles let you install previous gen versions very easily

I get some people never saw it, but it makes it all that more better when it arrives.

Let's hope you have a dial behind the scenes so it's an easy tweak. I assume so, so if it's too much you can dial it down anyway.

I think that's fair, and yeah luckily we can tweak it pretty easily during live so if we find it happens way too often we can tone it down!

However I think it will be less of an issue when you are playing multiple maps, but again if we wanna tone it down etc we can :)

I think for the beta it's about 10% to happen, so fairly unlucky to not get it in 20 games :( but with that said, we have upped the % for the storm to happen for launch (and also improved timings overall so it won't happen too late in the round)

I used a library growing up, which had a PC that could be used. Libraries have only gotten better over the years. But it is a fair point you bring up.

The map is disabled for this Open Beta unfortunately but will be around for launch, as well as the ability to give squad orders/request heals, etc.

This is caused by multiple input devices.

Unplug everything except m + kB and go to Windows device manager and uninstall the drivers for steering wheels, joysticks, etc

Thanks for helping out! - This is indeed the way to go, and will be fixed for launch <3.

Hi there, we are still tracking this as an issue - as shown within our Known Issues thread, a slight workaround for this might be - if you're using an Xbox Elite Controller, Xbox headset, or any peripheral plugged into the Xbox, try unplugging those and just use a standard controller - this may get you past this screen and then you can connect things back up again.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and I hope this helps your case!

This is already fixed up for launch, these are not your Specialists for Battlefield 2042 - they are just a small offering of soldiers that you'll be able to play as within Battlefield Portal, as shown within the Battlefield Portal reveal trailer.

Bit of an interesting visual bug, but nothing to be worried about!! 😊

That one where hosts talked about the idea of "connecting the world again" being a "huge pile of bs". Unfortunately, I didn't get to hear more because I got blown up by a tank:(

There are multiple out there. Hopefully next time the tank goes easy on you and can finish your listening. Thank you for the pleasant conversation.

Ah, good to hear. Worth keeping an ear out for more of that, especially as you travel across maps.

Which one did you hear?

Great and constructive feedback, thank you!

Just to confirm that we are indeed aware of this and that some peripherals plugged into the Xbox One may cause the controller to lose connectivity. We are currently tracking this as a known issue.

Hey there, we are working to address this but a good sign towards the correct version is that Xbox Series X|S will be listed on it's own under the details tab of the store product screen. (That and the size of the game)

Sorry for the inconvenience.
