I also want to add that your doing an amazing job with updating this as you go and appreciate you doing work after work hours. Cheers lad.

Not a great position to be put in for you. Can’t wait for BOINS news ;)

Thanks, bud. Sometimes it drives my wife crazy, me sitting on my phone responding on Reddit/Forums/Twitter, but she knows this is my passion and the love I have for this community and franchise.

I’ve heard that the update has passed the certification phase, is this correct?

Unless it’s from myself, u/F8RGE, or the official Battlefield channels, it’s not confirmed. We’ll know in the morning.

I have a feeling this update introduces BOINS which is why the BOINS article is pending, just like the update. Give us BOINS. I want to support the game and buy gear.

Bingo.

Sorry for my edginess just want to see this loot system fixed or adjusted in Firestorm ASAP. The game mode is a lot of fun. Thanks!

It’s all good, buddy. (Truth be told, I want all the things I’ve been reading in the Update Notes to go live as well.).

And I’m glad you’re liking Firestorm. I have a lot of fun with it myself.

When is the patch? They said April.

We have a couple updates coming this month. Doesn’t mean it’s on the 2nd day of the month.

Braddock will you be an unlockable skin?

I can see it now... A little Hobbit running around the battlefield, bald as a cueball, laughing hilariously and giving out his squad's position.

We're looking at tomorrow morning as the final confirmation of the Update/Battlefield Currency Blog details "go / no-go".

So does that mean things might come out tomorrow, or you’ll know when things are coming out tomorrow? Just for clarity.

Tomorrow morning I'll know if the update and blogs dependent on the update will be coming out/what day they will be coming out.

And its 7:50 a.m where Braddock is...damn let the man sleep.

I updated the OP.

It's not what I wanted to have as an update to the post, but I did promise I'd update it today.

TL;DR -
We're looking at tomorrow morning as the final confirmation of the Update/Battlefield Currency Blog details "go / no-go".

I suspected the delay posting this was 'I've just been given bad news and I really really really don't want to deliver it' or when you send a text to someone and are afraid to look at the reply for fear of how they'll react.

Here's hoping for some good news...Boins, Armory and Firestorm Patch #1 all in the pending pile ...

Maybe sneak some of the update notes into the QoL tracker to tide us over?

Go on

'I've just been given bad news and I really really really don't want to deliver it'

Basically. I was hoping it would be locked by the time I got this posted, but unfortunately, no.
We'll know for sure tomorrow morning. I really REALLY want good news tomorrow morning.

Wow no fix for Firestorm loot system? Is it going to take months to fix it like the base game?

We're updating the loot system for Firestorm with the next game update.

u/Braddock512 Quick question, in your notes it say's that there is an update around Tuesday evening. So your evening (US time) or which time do you mean?

Was just getting ready to update it. We’ll have final confirmation tomorrow of a go/no go. (EU time, early PDT) and will roll out appropriate info once we have confirmation.

Braddock512. You're doing a good job. We appreciate all of dice's efforts. We just wish you could be more open with us. And I just wish we could do something to help!

Me too, bud. Me too.

Great to hear about improving the loot spread in Firestorm! Any update on the way for inventory management?

Nothing I can share yet, but our UX/UI teams are looking at options.

Braddock are you guys unionized?

No. I’m not aware of any unions in the games industry. Which is one of the reasons working in this industry can be so volatile.

Still, one of the best jobs I’ve ever had.

First thing I thought after reading it over was "man....Braddock got hosed this week", haha.

I appreciate it. I literally didn't even want to post this because I KNOW what everyone wants to know about.
Such is the life of a CM. Just gotta roll with the punches.
Fingers crossed I get some tasty info to share tomorrow.

Are these pending items somehow related to the armory?

Armory, Update, Battlefield Currency.
I'll check in with the Devs in the morning (it's like 5AM in Stockholm right now) regarding the Armory issues - and I've already pinged our internal Slack channel to find out what's what.

I actually had a different word in mind when I came into work and found out some items were now pending.
Once I get updates from the team, I'll add them to this OP.
