They have the next seasonal update, Spring, to get out then it rolls to monthly updates. hence the spring update then it will be a monthly push. I understand a lot better why things have been taking so long now. When an update is ready to go they have to submit it to MS and Sony to go through certification to make sure it’s not going to jack up a metric ton of consoles. Unfortunately MS and SOny work on their own timelines and until its certified by them their hands are tied and they can’t push it for legal reason. CTE has opened my eyes to a lot of things and there’s stuff we’ve tested that isnt even in this patch that has been pushed back for further review.  
All I can say is we’re trying hard to bring this thing back from the brink and make it play a lot more like BF2/3. We’re getting there but it’s gonna take a bit. Oh and it will be coming SOON™

The reason we havent posted them, is simply because we cannot post them until we get approval to do so.

Yes I know how crazy that is considering they were talking about it on a live stream etc, but it is what it is.

I don’t think anyone is blaming you Starscream. We know DICE has a tight leash these days.

Just a random comment passing by which is not going to be negative.

I am happy we finally are getting some more features. In dutch we have a saying which roughly translates to ‘Better something, than nothing at all’.

6 player start and multiple admins will be a huge plus. I hope they add ability to move players SOON.  
But yes a good start. My group is actually planning on getting a server if it all come true.

I think after the update we definitely need map restart for scrims and be able to turn off idle kick.

6p = server custom but at least custom servers show now in server browser, unless you turn mapvote on with 6p start. Then your server is hard to find. Interesting features, so we will not use 6p and mapvote on same time.

Moderators (multiple administrators) cannot change map rotation (or step forward in maplist). Only the guy who hires the server can do that. Or do I miss something?
