Redacted is built with 64-player rotations in mind, however, there is always the option to dial the chaos and gameplay up even further by turning the dial up in Battlefield Portal.

Modeling in the body bags was the most awkward part. But the pictures came out great!

Hey @h9po0stzuz4t when posting on AHQ please do so in a polite and constructive manner.

Going to lock this as it is neither and is just a foul-mouthed rant that adds nothing. You can be frustrated and annoyed, that's fine but it also needs to be something beyond just a rant: https://answers.ea.com/t5/help/faqpage

Which are still a thing, FYI. Maybe consider bringing this to the game that needs it the most?

EDIT: The hack in question, from the cheaters perspective. every time they fire the suicide revolver, it redeploys the entire server. Quite literally killing the game and total silence from DICE/EA.

This is a very good question, and while we will be responding to most of them once enough time has taken place for us to collect them I do want to answer this one:

Updates to EA Anticheat are performed outside of the game client. What this means is that no matter the status of a game, support continues in regards to EA Anticheat.

Naturally, I cannot share anything outside of anything we have already discussed above, but the question you have asked is very fair and I will be asking the same. Thanks!

Hello all, As part of our ongoing efforts to create a safe and fair experience for all players we're transitioning Battlefield™ 2042 over to EA anticheat with the launch of Season 6 in October.

When we transition over to EA anticheat you won't notice anything different when logging in and playing, but this transition will enable our teams to be better equipped to find and remove players that don't play fair.

When we say PTF...

Genuinely love this, keep on enjoying games OP!

Always amazes me that during times where you have a luxury of aim, multiple chances(bullets) there's an essence of fail.

But when it comes to a scenario where you're in short supply and have one or two uses, your usually a lot better.

You also can't set squad orders when you're downed or dead, so getting hosed in the middle of setting an objective can cause you to lose squad leadership too

Will fire this stuff through to the team responsible for squad order functionality!

I wouldn't fix it. Randos can't be trusted and I prefer to be self sufficient in case the rando roulette doesn't play nice. It's still a team game so that's good enough.

That's not really Battlefield mentality though, sure self sufficiency goes a long way but relying on your team will ultimately secure those wins in a much more reliable way?
