CHAPTER 3: TRIAL BY FIRE WEEKLY BRIEF – WEEK #5

" The Lahti-Saloranta M26 was a Finnish firearm used during World War II with optional ammo storage - a regular magazine or a drum. Nicknamed “Assorted Mistakes”, it was a relatively heavy LMG, hard to clean due to its 188 parts, and low ammo capacity. However, in the hands of a proficient gunner, it was exceptionally accurate."

Though it is a crime against good taste, the Lahti in the game in fact does NOT have its 85-round pan magazine (Its not a drum magazine).

Might want to amend that statement in order to not be misleading

That part is just a historical fact about the weapon. EDIT: I've added a source of the info.

We have the static image and the mini-video to show what the weapon looks like in-game.

I do appreciate your keen eye and have added a bit of context on how the weapon is in-game. Thanks!

Checked with one of the producers. At this time, no, but that doesn't mean it may not come up in the future. I've definitely shared the feedback we've received from the community regarding customization of tanker/pilot.
If I get any updates, I'll make sure to share it as soon as possible.

I'm either confused or mad, is this live a day early or the announcement preemptive?

ToW Weekly Storylines start on Thursdays. This is a preemptive announcement - as we’ve done since ToW started in December. However, instead of it being on ea.com/battlefield, I’m putting it on Reddit and the forums.

Oh, a set of ToW challenges that can be completed on any mode? Now, that's better.

The opening paragraph states Squad Conquest unless specifically noted (there’s a Firestorm node).

Hey there guys, any tips for kolibri task? I know it's not mandatory but I'm filthy completionist, so far I've done every task but this one makes me scared. I'm on PC btw.

I'd recommend trying it with Squads or Duos. Your buddy pilot, you attack with your weapon while on board.

Just chatted with one of our producers that this should be fixed for the next update. CA should track career XP, but not Chapter XP or profile stats. They’re testing this on Friday.

I get bringing it back for ppl who loved it but please, please do not make me to play it again with the ToW challenges tied to it. 2 weeks were quite enough. This game mode really wasn't my cup of tea and I really don't like the idea I will be forced to play it again because of ToW.

Otherwise all that enjoyed it - have fun, I know this has been requested a lot.

I’m gonna be honest with you - it’s this week’s ToW Playlist. I noticed that today when I was creating the blog going live tomorrow.

I’m gonna reach out to the team that runs the ToW service to see if we can get more variation and more options in the nodes’ lanes. I know this is something that’s been requested a lot and there have been some improvements. But I get ya.

And thanks for understanding that a lot of people like it, but it’s just not for you. That’s ... that’s really cool of you.

I haven’t heard any updates or changes, but I know that there have been conversations regarding the extreme difficulty of some.

I think - just from my point of view - changing some of the Mastery ones at this point could frustrate those that did the grind to complete them.

If I hear anything, I’ll let y’all know.

"unbalanced game modes"

frontlines would be one that comes to mind. since launch on certain maps the distance between flags is so large and the timer before the next flag becomes available to cap so small, that often times the attacking team doesn't have enough time to reach the next objective before the defending team captures it.

"weapon balance between the classes"

i'm mostly referring to the fact that assault in almost every engagement is the bettor class due to the variety and shear effectiveness of all the weapons available to it as opposed to medic wich can only do well in close range combat.

this conversation is nuanced and would require a in depth discussion to fully unpack but the short of it is i and many others i've spoken to feel as though the overall class balance is massively skewed in favor of a few outliers with most everything else falling somewhere into the middle.

Thank you VERY MUCH for your reply. I think this is one of the best conversations I've had on Reddit in a while.
Let me get back to you some of this. Would that be alright?

my question is when if ever are you going to go and refine the base game?

there are multiple issues that have persisted since launch:

lack of progression after level 50

poorly designed assignment system

cosmetic unlocks not being earnable via ingame currency and progression

unbalanced game modes

weapon balance between the classes

ui and performance bugs

team balancing being broken

winning a day in grand operations not mattering to the overall match

the list just goes on and on and after nearly 6 months now with no indication these problems are going to be fixed any time soon if ever, it leaves many players myself included feeling disengaged with the game and makes it harder and harder to want to come back to the game as time goes on.

it would be nice if you guys could address these issues and at the very least let us know "hey we've heard you and will work on making improvements". otherwis...

lack of progression after level 50

Definitely something I've been hitting the Devs up with on a weekly basis with my reporting. There are other progression paths than just your Max Soldier Rank. Tides of War Rank, Class Rank, Weapon Rank. But yeah, I get it. And it's something I want, too.

poorly designed assignment system

This is something I had a chat with one of the lead producers about on Friday. The team hates the fact that you can't change Assignments in-game and they've been working on it. It's extremely difficult because of the various progression hooks in the game. But they're continuing to investigate options and work on it. That's literally what I was told.

cosmetic unlocks not being earnable via ingame currency and progression

But, they are. We've explained this multiple times. ...

Having to pay boins for elites seems fair, but I think many people are upset that we cannot buy epic skins with CC and there are only a few epic sets that can be unlocked for free. The best way to fix this would be to let us spend CC on epic skins or just add more cool skins that we can buy with CC. I would love to see a class rank increase with some more epic skin rewards to grind for!

I'm hoping for more badass Rare skins as the chapters progress, personally.
