Thank you for the reply. I believe the confusion came from this image. Where it looks as if CC can access the same cosmetics as BFC.
Yeah. And that's something I escalated internally as not be clear.
Simply put:
Cosmetics will have multiple options to acquire them, but not every cosmetic has all options. Epics = Battlefield Currency (BOINS) or Progression unlocks Rare and Below = Company Coin Elites= BOINs only.
Back pay the company coins. No sense in releasing new material if I can't even enjoy it because I and from other threads I've seen ALOT of others get ghosted because we cant do specializations. This is a bug that just breaks the game right now, and should have been addressed months ago, if not prior to launch. You keep releasing content without fixing your issues..its like slapping a bandaid on a bullet wound.
I'm trying to see the context of your comment, as you didn't reply to someone else's comment, but the OP. Can you clarify?
It amazes me how you guys tip toe around an actual answer to this question. We want to know if the NEW elite skins can or will ever be able to be unlocked with CC. We know that there are class specific elite skins that are unlocked through progression. Is this the progression you are referring to? The community has asked about new cosmetic unlocks with company coin for ages now. I don't see why the new Elite Skins can't just be unlocked for a large amount of CC unless you guys are really trying to squeeze out every last $ from the community. I personally won't spend $20 for one skin for a game I already payed $90 for. However, I would use the 50k CC I have sitting in my account. Most people have a decent amount of CC saved up. Make the skins 20-30k CC and it will drive players to actually complete the challenges and acquire more CC.
No, Elite skins will not be available for Company Coin. This was clearly stated in the blog about Battlefield Currency. It keeps getting voted down because people don't like the answer, but it is the answer.
Hidily Ho neighborino!
any news?
Directly from the Dev team:
"Hey Jeff, we're working on a full rework of this experience, we’re not happy with the current setup and will continue to work to improve it going forward. "
No ETA or date, but they are on it. As I get updates to the progress, I'll let you know.
nope, you said "The next update isn’t coming this week, but I’ve been reviewing some of the notes."
Sorry, I thought I read that it should come next week.
I try to love this game but I just can't.
Okay. Whew. I was scared I misspoke.
No Patch again?! Got to be kidding me... so done with this game
The next update is scheduled for next week, pending Certification.
Maybe like in halo’s forge mode, wed be able to create our own objectives and game modes using halvoy’s map? Not necessarily create terrain or structures but to create our own conquest maps. Community playlists and such.
That would be dope. Good suggestion.
Patch Notes ?
Update Notes come out the day before the update goes live.
Did you find that link where you say I said a client update was coming this week? I want to make sure I'm not setting incorrect expectations regarding timing and deliverables.
Fair point
Hey MurderIncBF1, your comments seem to not be replying to anyone specific, but just added to the main thread. This makes it a bit difficult to understand your point or train of thought.
Just a suggestion - if you click the reply button under a particular comment, it will thread the comment replies and give a bit more clarity regarding what you're talking about when you post short messages like "Fair Point".
(This isn't a dig at you. I do want to know what you're referencing, but it's a bit difficult to sort through all of the main replies to figure out who you're replying to.)
Last week you said it will release next week ... any patch notes at least ?
I do not recall mentioning that an update was coming this week. Got a link?
DICE should just allow modders to create maps for them. Since we haven't had any good content except for panzer storm and maybe firestorm. Thats their only saving grace, I'm not sure how hard it is to make a terrain in BFV but in ARMA 3 it's pretty f'in easy and fun to make. Imo
That's an interesting suggestion, but as you mentioned, "I'm not sure how hard it is to make a terrain in BFV " - it's a completely different engine than ARMA 3.
No Patch again?! Got to be kidding me... so done with this game
The next update is going through finalization and certification. We're expecting it next week.
As of around 20 days after this bug, I still haven't gotten the Frankreich skin. :( I don't want anything else but that skin since I worked hard for it and the 38T is my fav tank. I hope I can still get it? If it is released in store, being given the amount of CC or BOINS required to buy it would be fair compensation I think. Just as a suggestion, since I REALLY want that skin. :)
Just got an update from the team.
They're working on rolling this out automatically for those that were affected.
I don't have an exact date yet, but will keep pushing to get one and will share it when I have it.
Are you allowed to say how much they are yet?
I'm not, honestly, but they're not much more than Epics, I believe.
Means we are getting a blog for them next week or?
Yep!
So when are we getting elites exactly? They were supposed to be here months ago.
They’re released with the next update.
Let me guess. 4 man squads still.
Nope. 5v5 = 5 man Squads.
I want those cosmetic's in that image but I want to pay with CC not Boins.
Some cosmetics are available for Company Coin, some Battlefield Currency/Progression, some both CC or BFC.
Read more(And spamming the same message on multiple posts isn’t necessary.)
Come on, I've been tagging you in related posts (even made and deleted one myself) for weeks now. Conveniently, you and every other cm ignored every post though.
Even when they were posts by Australians who bought bfv specifically for Firestorm, found it was unplayable and were told by Origin support a refund is impossible.
Then the one time I "spam" you by sending the same message twice, you respond - seems like the opposite of unnecessary really.
As for advertising, it has definitely waned but this is from the PSN store popular tab. Note how it very explicitly promises an experience your company knows the product cannot deliver, yet the promise remains.
I imagine there are more ads like that throughout the psn and across other platforms too. Why?
I feel harsh hounding you for it but the onl...
I’ve been doing my best to respond to concerns from the Australian community regarding the issues with Firestorm. I’m not able to hit every one, we are in significantly different time zones, etc.
Regarding the PSN store, I’ll forward your feedback to the team that handles 1st party relationships.
I’m also setting a meeting with the dev team tomorrow to see what next steps we can do to improve connectivity in Australia (and the other low-population regions - y’all aren’t the only ones with matchmaking issues for Firestorm).
I would like to say this, if I may. I can understand frustration, I can understand anger. I won’t accept being verbally abused, insulted, etc. I just won’t respond to that. It doesn’t move anything forward and is beneath both of us, wouldn’t you agree?
Cool, thanks for the info Jeff! Just curious, is there no longer going to be a bi-weekly update tempo? I’m not complaining, just wondering what to expect going forward. Thanks again!
Our intention is to have bi-weekly, of as close to it, as possible. Sometimes it may be 3 weeks. But the goal is to continue driving updates at a regular cadence to add features, fix issues, and expand the overall quality of Battlefield V.
