It would be nice to have 1 or 2 BF1 developers start threads on different aspects of the game, and give their goals and ask for feedback on improving those aspects of the game.
Topics could include:
netcode
Platoon vs Platoon Public Servers
Playing only people in own region with Ping-checking-limiting so smooth gameplay.
And other topics other people want addressed or ways BF1 will be improved.
That is a pretty interesting idea.
You mean like they did on the CTE reddit? There was a reason it was on reddit and not an official forum for the game. It’ll be interesting if they go that same route again for those same exact reasons.
I think this is an option for the future. There’s a ton of topics about Battlefield 1 we want to cover, in the effort to make BF1 the best Battlefield game so far.
Hey, I will get Jeff to label you on here
Yeah I thought something similar, but DICE is probably still restricted to talk about certain things around BF1 by EA. I hope that some kind of interaction will happen like it was the case during CTE. And surely they took some feedback behind closed doors when the reveal trailer came out.
I thought that was the intention with battlelog in the first place?
Stop making sense. We all know it would be easier on their official forums. 
Sorry I will refrain from doing this in the future
I would be interested in how they conduct Focus Groups and put gamers in a room, play the game for an hour or 2 and get feedback.
I think they should also take focus groups right now on people that bought hardline and battlefront and ask them what they liked and didn’t like about those 2 Dice/EA games, and ask about the team-based feeling they got from the game or if they didn’t feel connected with their team-mates in those games.
Does lack of team spirit built in those games over time give gamers a bad feeling about turning on the game and playing it more? Questions geared toward player to player interaction and ease of joining a team-based game and feeling part of the team. How can they improve that?
Do you think they aren’t doing this already? There are gamers out there doing this exact thing for them already, they are under NDA though. And with E3 coming up, I read somewhere that people will be able to play the game there as well.
Although the “Developers Interaction thread” seems like a good idea on paper, I’m doubtful about its real utility in an open forum like this one.
A developers interaction thread would be “flooded” by all sorts of requests and complains from the general public with few noteworthy ideas and intelligent feedback for the developers to take into consideration.
More efficient would be some kind of “selected test group” with a few thousands BF players who would provide a constant and real-time response on anything game related. Game mechanics, weapon balancing, netcode, bugs and glitches, etc. Basically, a members only CTE like set-up within battlelog.
The forum already offers plenty of opportunities to express praise, criticism and suggestions from all interested players and is ultimately just one of many sources DICE developers have in acquiring data to modify/improve the game.
Finally, looking at other games which have forums with “developers Interaction threads”, I often feel that it is more of a public relation instrument for the developers to keep customers “happy” rather than a practical tool to change anything.
Agree and nice idea. but I see it like this. DICE should indeed pick certain posters out that have something to bring to the table. Although the forums is a place is of a more public relation instrument it’s now time ‘we seperate wheat from the chaff’
( is that a expression in english don’t want to sound like Loui van Gaal)
its more like: separate the wheat from the chaff, well google says so!
Cheers! Edited it!
Those of you who use forums and other social media of any kind, know that it is very much a “mixed bag” experience.
Often reading and communicating with completely unknown persons that under normal real life circumstances you wouldn’t deem them worthy of even a glance. Discussing with people who are uncapable of writing something coherent. Not to mention language and grammar skills which, at times, are beyond comprehension even with native English speaking individuals.
Being active on the battlelog is like trying to find gold; have to sift through a lot of mud and dirt in the faint hope of maybe finding a little gold nugget. This forum is no exception.
What level could an open to everybody “Developers Interaction thread” have?
Reddit worked well for this with its upvote function. If only they could completely disable downvoting…
I miss that on this forum, some sort of “thumbs up” function. So you can see how many people agree on the subject or what he’s saying about the subject !
Well let just put it this way. The boys are ackwardly silence when men are talking 
I suggested to another thread and to a mod to implement a kind of ‘twittersystem’. So you can follow certain posters.
I am not familiair with reddit though.
Yeah but let just say it is not waterproof. Abuse is around the corner
Can you imagine the following scenario; the potential influx of a few million kids coming from COD to BF1?
If just a fraction of them start pestering the new battlelog we’re done for!
