Long time Battlefield vet here. The new Battlepack system is very disappointing to me. I’m not the greatest player on Earth, but I’m not terrible. I’m frequently in the top 3 and rarely in the bottom half of the scoreboard. And yet, I’ve received one… ONE battlepack after a few hours of play and up to level 9. That’s ridiculous. I can appreciate developers wanting to reward strong play, but how about something for those of us that love the game, but don’t have time to devote our lives to enhancing our skill set? Can’t we get a battleback thrown at us every level again like the good old days? No? Then how about altering the drop rate so that those in the middle of the scoreboard receive one more frequently? I’m enjoying this game, but it feels like a slap in the face to continuously see my gamerpic in the “Highlight” section, but never receive a battlepack. Come on. ---

They so seem truly random,i have done really well in games and not received them,i have also joined a game at the very end,not even spawned in and received one. I get why theyve done this,so that top players dont always get them but there has to be a balance there somewhere. ---

It’s so bad…I play well, play objective, make dinner..whatever and can’t seem to get a drop but watch the people I’m playing with get them constantly. Doesn’t seem very balanced to me when I go through the whole map rotation in the same server and see the same people getting them..what balance is that? ---

I think it’s just random man. It doesn’t directly correlate with performance. ---

Not complaining kinda laughing but I went 16 matches without a battle pack. Basically an entire gaming day glad packs are not for sale but getting nothing hour after hour is no fun. Also 4 packs in a row gave me the same skin and resale on skins for new packs in game sucks. ---

I’m over rank 20, top 5 nearly every game and only got 3 packs. Joined a room and didn’t have time to spawn, got my 4th pack. This is crazy. ---

Yeah I had exactly the same last night. First game of the evening I spawned into a game that was nearly finished. Didn’t have time to fire my weapon, got 0 points but got a battlepack. My only battlepack of the evening. And when I do get battlepacks I get the same skin over and over. And only get 30 scraps for it. I have 390 scraps so far. It seems a long way off to get 900 scraps for a guaranteed legendary item lol ---

This is not just about luck as everyone try to claim. Yesterday i got 28 battlepacks playing Domination. The first battlepack is always rewarded to the player who did the most in the entire game. Most of the time top score player in the entire game gets it. But if someone else did a much better job in securing a game mode, he might get it instead. The second battlepack seems to get also a player who did well and reached a good score in other aspects like top class / most heals / revives / most defended flags etc. but he doesnt have to be in the last top 5 list. For the rest (domination mode has only 4 battlepacks at the end) it seems random. I would say that its around the same for other game modes too. Around half of the battlepacks seem to be affected by players performance and the rest is random. I could literally say if i am going to be rewarded with a battlepack or not (or even who will get the battlepack instead). And from 28 battlepacks i got around 25 while having #1 score in a game. This might sound egoistic but this system will look like completely rng for average players but you will see the pattern once you reach #1 several times or just see who got the battlepack and see what’s his position in scoreboard or top 5 list. ---

That is all false. I’ve played over 25 hours in at least 75% of my games I was the MVP, planted the most bombs or defused the most, captured flags, whatever it may be, and I have gotten only 5 battle packs. While I have friends who will be on the lower end of the scoreboard and get them nearly every game. ---

my past 2 days of conquest i have not seen 1 battlepack..they should have at least give you a battlepack for every rank up since the drop rate is horrible. ---

I’ve noticed the worse you do the more likely you are to get them. Next time if you’re fast enough, note one of the names and see where he is on the scoreboard. Judging by my experiences and what others have said in this thread, he’ll have either just joined or be near the bottom anyway. Quit bein so good you guys! ---
