As title how is this still a thing? This was a day one bug in a year old game. Shot, someone attempts to revive me, now I am stuck in the death screen but not even the option to redeploy. Quitting the game is the only option I have. Maybe DICE should spend more time on the core game and less and pointless uniforms ! ---

Another option to Alt+F4 is to wait for a squad wipe. I’ve had the ‘death screen’ bug several times but it always get fixed once a squad wipe occurs. So when it happens I just sit there silently hoping for squadmates to get killed (and not being revived) or urge them all to go on kamikaze runs. ---

A mate and I have come to the conclusion it only happens to us when we die next to a resupply station.

The Trello board is not an exhaustive list. Also, the Trello board is relatively new and the bug was added around 1 month after it was released and it takes some time to re-confirm rare bugs like these (and if and what changes have happened with the bug) after a patch release. ---

Yup, just BFV, no need to shut down pc. Even though just as painful. ---

I had it too yesterday, and last week. Was not building anything and not next to resupply station either. I pressed some buttons though to get into menu quick. That nwver hapoened ofcourse. This time it was on solomon islands. ---

It can still happen, like 5 minutes ago for me on Hamada (Breakthrough). I died by a bomber plane inside FLAK AA gun. Then i saw a support team mate repairing said FLAK gun while I was lying on the ground. I decided to bleed out and not wait for a revive, then I was stuck in the death screen permanently. This is awful since you gotta leave the server to be able to play again.. So yes, I was next to something that can be re-built, and someone was actually rebuilding it with the wrench while I had it happen. So that looks like it’s the same bug as originally described. Why is EA never able to fix it, after so many months and bug reports? EA has developers right? Or did they all leave? Like for real. This kind of stuff impacts the playing experience. The game got released with this bug, and it will just NEVER be fixed during the entire lifecycle of Battlefield 5? ![image](https://battlefieldforum.co/uploads/default/original/3X/4/d/4d4c5097f8f014cca4889b5082ef99078007d850.jpeg) ---

This is an annoying bug. You don’t have to alt+F4 to resolve this, you just need a squad wipe and you will be able to spawn again. ---
