So I had to free up space on my ps4. I needed 57 GB to download the update... Total size: 551.6 MB
SERIOUSLY? I get that some extra size is needed to overwrite, decompress etc. But a hundred times over!?
This is how the PS4 behaves with all game updates, for all games. It clones the existing full install of the game to modify it and then removes the other.
Beautiful shot! 👏👏👏
It's not behaving correctly on PC. Is presently fine on Xbox and PS4 and working as expected.
Looking into it in case it's anything sinister.
Edit - All seems to be behaving correctly now :)
Id like to see mercury included in the marita 24/7 playlist!!
For at least the first 2 days we'll keep it to Marita only. We could maybe change it up later on in the week, but I think folks best appreciate the chance to jump in and play new content right away vs. playing the Server Browser game.
I'm just so excited you replied to my comment haha.
I have a weird question tho, if and when those bizaros you mentioned pop in, is it like the standard reporting we all do for toxic behavior or is it like you get up from your desk in office and shoot out "YO FOUND ANOTHER BIZARO" and a guy pops his head around the wall and says "IM LISTENING" and you go "XXpussyslayer6969xX" and he goes "YEAH PERMA BAN LETS GO!"
In all seriousness, it's sad people have to resort to such behavior to get a point across. Ruins the name of the community to such an extent.
I report them via the same method as any one else - in extreme cases I've pinged it directly to the team to put it higher up the queue (in instances where the player is actively breaking various parts of the TOS and disrupting all players experiences).
They really shouldn't. No matter how frustrated you are with bf5. I'm really frustrated with bf5 but I dont bash the developers and community managers cus they are people as well. Treat them with respect. I'd treat them how I'd want to be treated if I'm the community manager of bf5. So sad to see people have descended to this level.
I understand it to some extent. It's my job to be hear and talk to you and fairly, some folks are frustrated right now. I understand that this gets directed at me and I can appreciate it for what it is vs. being an attack of any kind.
I'll volunteer that when I'm playing in servers, Chats usually pretty respectful and decent toward me. I quite enjoy having the chat on most rounds (until the usual bizarros appear and earn themselves a few reports)
u/PartWelsh, are you guys going to restore the TDM Devastation map to it's former glory? :(
I understand the mindset of having maps of varying sizes, but the Arras - Devastation - Hamada TDM triple rotation was my personal favorite to play (Arras and Hamada are still good). If not, I'd ask that you guys at least keep the future map sizes a bit more varied than Mercury or current Devastation.
It's not that fun to be spawned in a corner that your team can't break out of.
Thanks for everything!
Slide into my Reddit DM's (or Twitter if you prefer) with some notes about what you feel we could change with Devastation on TDM (or if 'Go Back' is simply the answer) and I'll see that it gets through to the right person. We don't get a lot of feedback from TDM players as they're often chased out of town by everyone else so I'm well up for hearing more from you!

Thanks for the info! I still think you should aim to have breakthrough on maps when they launch, but I'm glad to know you are currently working on it.
An aside, from what you've and Braddock have been saying, it seems 4.4 is going to be a big update? 4.2 was a bit underwhelming.
The development cycle for the patch ends next week so that it can enter it's testing and polish phase. Next week is when I should have a good idea of what to expect. For now the headline features are very much the new maps and the rank increase to 500
Just a reminder marita has a drivable tractor
I remember Losssy getting it full Austin Powered' in an Alley Way at EA Play. Took half the server to get it out without destroying it
Can we have pleas more supply stations for tanks on twisted steel in conquest.
If we were to add more, where specifically would you expect to see them?
Hey at u/partwelsh is there any chance of dropping TDM from the 32 player Marita playlist? I know last time frontlines was brought back in a playlist with TDM there was a lot of feedback that including TDM was unnecessary seeing as TDM is available all the time and people wanted to play frontlines since it was no longer available. I feel the same might happen this time where Frontlines/domination are not available anymore but TDM still is. Other than that this was a great post and a perfect example of what I like seeing!
Worth considering. I'll talk to the team. Would be good to hear from TDM players and what they think. In the past we've increased the frequency of the map on the general TDM playlist, would that be a good alternative or would TDM players still appreciate the higher chance of getting a round in on the new map?
Last I saw they said it's currently in the hands of a design team or something. I.e. maybe in development, but not as final as the conquest version is (minus the artifacting)
Yeah we've done a few playtests on variants of it over the past month or so. We want to do it, we just need to make sure it's fun first. Same as with other notes about the map on the Thread, as soon as I know more and have hard fast facts to point at, I'll be back with updates.
Which elites?

Marita tomorrow is great, thought we'd have to wait a day or two til ToW.
If that skin issue is the worst ye've found then things should be pretty smooth.
Definitely noticed performance improvements with the last patch too which is great, DX12 playable again (maybe combination of Nvidia Drivers too) - a bit to go still,but definite steps in the right direction.
Rush will be missed though. It's been damn consistently fun.
Same! Twisted Steel has been a joy to play <3
Thanks for the update, looking forward to the new map. Any update on Sudan?
Updates in the post - TLDR being that there's no new news, but it's still absolutely our intent to add the map into the Conquest rotation as soon as we can remove the Artifact problem.
Following last weeks 4.2 deployment, we're deploying a small update tomorrow, Tuesday 30th July, that will enable Marita, and set live our two new Elites. This update contains no other fixes, or changes to Battlefield V.
These updates are anticipated to clock in at around the 500MB mark on Xbox One, and 300MB on PC. I'll update this post tomorrow confirming anticipated sizes for PlayStation 4.
Deployment for this update will start in line with our usual schedule:
There will be no general downtime for this update, and once it's available for your platform you're encouraged to close any active session that you have, and attempt to relaunch the game in order to start downloading and installing. Servers with players connected who are running the older ...

I appreciated the detail all the same.
What about the hit registration/detection? It should be impossible to hit / damage a target over 100 points!
At last notification from the team, I was informed that this remains a UI issue. We thought we had a fix for it in a previous patch, this failed and the issue remains prominent.
My understanding is that it's telling you that you're doing more damage than you actually are. You are otherwise doing correct damage based on your weapon, distance, and where your bullet lands.
There is still 4.3 between 4.2 and 4.4 - correct me if I‘m wrong but to this point nobody out of DICEA has an idea what we can hope for in 4.3 / is coming with 4.3.
We reserve even numbered patches for use on an as needed basis. If we believe that we'll have fixes that can be deployed for an interim update without impacting the update that follows two weeks later, we deploy it. For now, our next scheduled update is 4.4 and I'll let everyone know if that changes.
