I’m currently now level 13 and haven’t gotten a single battlepack whereas I have a friend that is level 5 and has received six already. Is this a known bug for some people?
Not heard of that happening, have you checked in your battlepacks tab in game?
Yes, I have.
Agree. Can EA please be more transparent about how these parks are earned. Most people assumed it would be based on some type of XP progression that they could measure. Instead it seems based on RNG odds at best or being top of leaderboard at worst. Either way, it seems a lot of people are confused and disappointed.
Update: Ive now played for 7 hours and at rank 16 still without a single battlepack.
I only got 2 in the whole 10 hours of multiplayer I played and they were 2 Rounds after one another.
Seem completely random.
I got 5 before the trial ended of which 2 were duplicates and ended up in the scrap box.
You earn them by having luck. At the end of a match there is a lottery and with some luck you get a battlepack.
My understanding is that they are randomly handed out, but there’s a multiplier given to you if you perform well in matches.
I got one for the first 9-10 levels, but after that, when I became more comfortable with the game and started appearing towards the top of lobbies, I’ve been getting them quite regularly.
It’s random on the drops at the “end of the match”. See what DICE did here? As an incentive to stick it out even if you’re losing you may get a reward. Op it just may be that you unfortunately have not been randomly chosen. You want a Battlepack? Play some more.
I’m not sure it is top of the lobby..I have been up there a handful of times and have yet to receive one! Lame! lol
I just finished the trial and got 6. Ending rank at 10. 1 was a duplicate which I scrapped. I’m never at the top because I suck but I still seem to get them LOL
I’ve finished the community challenge (100 m1911 kills) and im level 9 in bf1 and haven’t got any battle pack :s
Ive joined a game in the last 30 seconds…and received a battle pack. Not complaining, but I don’t find that extremely fair to the players who were playing the entire game.
Battlepacks are the same thing as weapon crates in Counter-Strike, its totally random, like a lottery.
Well its been random to the same players for the last 5 games i just played.. Had to turn it off and calm my nerves down.. Game was getting little laggy anyways. Servers are getting worked.
I’m 5 hours in and only received 1 and I was told they’re very random. I’m not sure if you need to get certain amount of points or have 0 points to get one. How random is it?
I think they need to look at it as random = BS
Receiving one pack in 10 hours with it being your first game that you jumped into that has about 2 minutes gameplay left…
Either add battlepacks for personal achievement also or only for personal achievement.
You COULD end up with no or a very small amount of packs even at level 140!
I’m still waiting for the Gjallahorn to drop
Have you been sure to claim your reward? Any community mission that you complete often comes with the need to ‘CLAIM REWARD’. This is under your battlelog page and then a tab saying Community Missions. You can see if your progress has been recorded > I got something like 110 kills but some may have been ‘assist counted as kill’ so it only showed 87 kills.
I also think that the battlepack is provided on game release as far as I know.
