It’s just your “role” on the forum. We’re “Member” while some are “Moderators,” “EA,” etc.

Mine says Medal of Honor warfighter too. This is what’s confusing me.

Same here. It’s probably just them trying to resolve the permissions issue so we can post on every forum section and sub-section.

Ok, thanks. I just came over from battlog today so I’m still trying to figure this new forum out.

They are game entitlements. Meaning the games you own (Battlefield) will appear there, if I recall correctly.

Yet Cryphisss has ‘Battlefield 3’ tied to his profile, one of the games anthony1181993 stated he owns. And why aren’t they all apart of this forum? I thought this forum was for all Battlefield games? Or are they supposed to be discussed in the **All Other Battlefield Titles** sub-section?

I guess these are more bugs on the forum, which is not surprising, seeing as it’s still a… young forum. 🙂

Don’t worry, anthony1181993, I’m sure most, if not all of these issues will be ironed out by the time the BF1 beta comes out, or launch at the latest (hopefully).

Battlefield - the catch-all tag for any game that isn’t specifically called out (BF1942-BFBC2).  
So, any game before BF3 will result in giving you the Battlefield tag.

MOHW - this is/was a forum on Battlelog. We haven’t had forums for the MOH 2010 (or older games) in quite some time. If you own MOHW, you’ll have the tag and can post in those specific forums.

All forums are entitlement-based, so if you don’t have BF4, you can view but not post in the BF4 forums, etc.

You’ll have to log out and log back in - try clearing your cache - if you have the MOHW game on PC, PS3, or Xbox 360 for this account and you don’t get the tag.

Thanks.

awww man, dont do this to us!

does this mean i need to won BF1 to post there when it launches? that basically freezes out anyone who didnt buy it on launch from researching the game.

True, but they will not be able to ask the questions that are on their mind. However there are other places to ask those questions, I guess.

exactly, you cant ask questions.

this is dumb, just let everyone post. if the problem is not wanting alts, there are better way to do that.

So, when the game comes out, we can open a section that non-entitlement-having members can ask questions - a new role will be created that is pretty restrictive to avoid spam trolls.

This could work, but it’s not guaranteed that we’ll do that.  
To be honest, you couldn’t post on the Battlelog Forums unless you owned the game.  
EVERYONE who owns a title for Battlefield - of any year - can post in Battlefield 1.

you cant seriously be comparing maps made in games with 15 year old graphics and physics engines to these, are you? there’s a lot more they have to do graphically and physically to make these maps.

making maps in OLD games wasnt that hard. it is now.

This is the truth… people have no idea how much work goes into games compared to 10 years ago.

Take into consideration of how much time went into developing the community map in Battlefield 4.

Also cheers to Braddock512 for clearing up the questions above about the forum entitlements.
