I know this is a meme but I actually think the lore is really cool and I would diveeeeee into that
We have plenty. What bits are you interested in?

Side note, but man I miss the Battlefront CTs and updates. So much fun, and I think u and the community management team did awesome (once the rough launch was patched up of course. At that time I understand the issues with communication).
Username checks out.
I see. Well, thank you for your hard work! Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the completion of BF2042. Good luck.
See you on the Battlefield
I don't care how you use your vacation time, but I think that one word will only upset people's emotions. Isn't it enough to say that it was quite late?
Just explaining why there was no response. I could have said "it was late", but that feels a little cold and I'll always try and inject a bit of personality/human touch in things.
Is it possible to see under the helmet of sundance? Now i would like to see his/her hair
Yup. Sundance does have a face.
Maybe it actually did, it’s just not enough in today’s climate.
That could be fair. I've always thought that you should never settle, but should always be looking for improvement, regardless of your field/output.
Silly question, why would the bots have 4 classes?
So you can set them up for different behaviour/looks/loadouts etc
Wonder what Sundance actually looks like...hmmmm
Great hair.
If you're reading this f8rge the issue is confirming when new info will be shared, not following through and NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING YOU DIDNT FOLLOW THROUGH. Please explain to me why there wasn't even a "sorry we'll talk about this next week instead?"
Because the Community Managers can't just go and post shit without approval.
This.
The Problem I see here is that the CM gets all the heat, because the actual people responsible for such important information like beta and release dates don’t have the balls to take the responsibility for such statements. But just use the CM as a dummy.
This just shows that the higher ups aren’t even feeling responsible for their product. Because if they did, they would have provide a statement by themselves and not just say „hey CM tweet this“. But maybe I’m wrong and CM f**ked up ? Who knows. Just my two cents.
As a CM you're often at the mercy of what you can and can't say. Is very rare you will have a CM that gets to dictate things themselves.
I think everyone here completely understands that things can change at a moments notice and that's fine - just tell us. You guys made a commitment during Battlefield V to have more open, honest, and transparent communication. So do what you told us. We're begging you to stick to your word at this point and we shouldn't have to.
We've got our community manager telling us things like "I'll be helping to answer questions as we move towards November 19th." So we ask questions and we get ignored. Not a "Sorry I can't answer that yet", just completely ignored.
Please don't do this to us again. Battlefield V was a terrible time to be a fan of Battlefield due to the silence and vagueness we got from you guys. We are your hardcore fans and the people that always support your games no matter what. We shouldn't have to beg and plead for any sliver of official information.
And that's completely fair. I was part of that commitment during BFV, and I know your current Community Team feels the same way. I'm speaking out of my comfort zone now, as I'm not involved in marketing anymore, but I have to believe that what you are after is coming.
Please don’t do this to us again.
Narrator; they’re going to do exactly that again.
I spent a lot of time with BFII and BFV and I learned that DICE sucks at communication - they always have. Communication, bug fixes, and general balance have always been their low points. While making visual beautiful games is their highest point.
I want to be optimistic about this game, but seeing how they’re already struggling, DICE LA is leaving after launch, and how they treated BFII / BFV… oof.
I think BFV improved in this regard as time went on, always room for further improvement. Be interesting to hear what time frame you played BFII.
Funny how he won't reply back to this at all
I posted it quite late in the evening, went to play some more Ghost of Tsushima.
Lead Community Manger at EA must be the easiest f**king job there is. You can literally do nothing and still get paid for it.
Hijacking top comment, sorry about that.
Hello there,
I’ve seen a lot of threads like this recently and as time goes on, they get more and more aggressive, and that anger gets directed towards Freeman and the rest of the Community team on a personal level. I don’t think that’s fair, but instead of saying “don’t do this”, I wanted to explain a little of my thought process.
Working in Community is probably one of the most misunderstood roles within the industry. While on the surface it’s easy to think that it’s one of the easiest jobs around, from experience I can say it’s not.
You see, the problem with working in Community is that you’re always stuck in the middle. You have everyone looking to you for the answers, and that includes both internal teams and of course your player base. When things go well you end up in a great situation (which is sadly all too rare) where everyone’s wants and needs align.
In times like this, working in ...
Read moref**k being a soldier in modern times, imagine having robot dogs running at you and blowing up. Or drones blowing you up from a mile in the sky, f**k that
Don't think it was great in non-modern times to be fair.
I felt bad for him tbh. He had a lot of passion for the franchise and it was very evident. The time and effort he would take to create those Bfv dev update posts on reddit formatted very nicely etc. was always welcomed.
Shame that the devs didn't give the guy much to work with and he inevitably became the face of bad news or worse, no news.
Jeff and passion go hand in hand, always had what's best for players front and centre, and I suspect he always will.
Looks like something from Star Wars imo
Welcome to Mimban, not sure the Exodus could reach there though.
Can’t wait to learn about Sundance. I think it’s safe to assume that she’s some sort of thrill seeker?
A badass for sure.
The kits from Adidas this season have actually been really good!
Much better than the Puma 3rd kits
Do we get to play as these major characters (besides Irish)?
All the Specialists are major characters, have backstories that detail how they got to where they are in 2042 etc. The Exodus gave a glimpse into Irish, but don't underestimate Boris, Rao, Sundance and the rest of the team.
