It's there to encourage Custom Experiences that may have more of a slant towards Squad Based gameplay, Only One Life or Tactical Scenarios.
We'll be keeping an eye on those experiences to see - like previous Custom Experiences - if there are ones for the Community Spotlight.

Keep the feedback coming regarding its usage in All Out Warfare.

Trophy not taking out smoke grenades is a big one.

Never should've been the case, and I'm glad someone alerted us to that. It's a defensive gadget, and it allows for people to hopefully push chokepoints a little bit more now that it won't be suppressed.

Community Note

Additionally, we had hoped that Update 6.3 would include the "Improved Map Rotations" Quality of Life Change as listed on our Road to Season 7 Roadmap.

This change is still on its way and will reduce the likelihood of playing the same location multiple times in short succession for All-Our Warfare.

While this won't arrive for Update 6.3, please stay tuned for more details on when to expect this in a future update.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, Battlefield Hardline possibly had some of the most diverse and creative maps for recent Battlefield titles. Amazing map offering.

  1. Don't fall into a run and gun mentality, while Battlefield can encourage that in some cases, it is far better to slow it down and think ahead. You'll notice that you're able to flank better, out maneuver and ultimately be more prepared for certain combat situations.

  2. KD Ratio is not the be-all-end-all contributor to winning in Battlefield. And nor is it truly about climbing the Scoreboard. Its a squad based, team wins, game. You can get as many kills as you like but if you're team is dying more than your personal kills it negates it. It's about balance, reviving actually takes away from the opposite team. Taking out a helicopter or tank can reduce the amount of death.

  3. Don't wait for somebody else to "deal with it", if something is really doing a number on your team, you'll be far more efficient if you step up, change kit, and deal with it.

  4. Play the objective. That can mean many things, if you're doing your class role, if you'r...

We're currently looking into the output and pick rate of this weapon in comparison to player feedback and may make some balancing changes regarding it.

Stay tuned! 🙂

We're currently assessing the output and pick rate of this and may make future balance changes in accordance with that. As we've stated previously, we did make some changes to this weapon already and may continue to do so based on community feedback and data aligning with that feedback.

10/10 accurate portrayal 😆

That title is quite... something :)

In any case, we have passed the information through to the team and we are currently assessing the validity of the claims and may communicate further in the future, if necessary, on the investigation.

Naturally we take player privacy very seriously, and if you believe people are violating the Terms of Service, I would highly encourage you to report them to EA with the...

OP starting off the year as a king.

I'm extremely bias to anything Close Quarters, I had spent hundreds of hours running around in circles on those little maps. What an amazing pack that was, Ziba truly is one of my most favourite maps in the series.

Today, we've released a server-side change that reduces the timer and total ticket allocation for Rapid Strike, this week's Holiday Protocol Mode on Battlefield 2042.

▪️ PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X players will start with 5200 tickets in this mode.
▪️ Xbox One and PlayStation 4 will start with 2800 tickets.
▪️ All matches will now last for a maximum of 45 minutes.

These changes are now live and may take some time to propagate across all servers.
Thank you for your continued feedback!
See you on Holiday Protocol!

Today we have made a slight alteration to the Replenish Rate of Missiles on Jet Aircraft on Battlefield 2042

Going forward they will now replenish at a rate of 1.8 seconds (changed from 1.4).

While overall we are happy with the changes to Jets, we are witnessing airstrike potential being faster than anticipated. This slight change will slow that down, while still allowing for them to be capable in the sky.

This change is now live and will take a moment to propagate across all live servers.
