The big Easter egg hunt has started again - Discussion topic

So I don’t see it posted anywhere. Your escalation skin can be stolen.
I Was in a server with my buddy. (He was the server owner).
Was doing the ee, and letting him watch so he could do the same.
While in the tower, he went up to the top. As I did all the switch operating (A-F top to bottom).
After the last one as I reached the top floor, HE hit the final switch next to the light.
BOOM
Scary noise sounds on both screens. Screen goes foggy on both screens.
I kill myself to check inventory.
NOTHING
He checks his inventory…
HE HAS THE ESCALATION SKIN.
The only part of the ee that he did was push the final button.

Did you leave the server and then have a look if you got it?

Yes. Even restarted the game. It is STEALABLE.
JUST BE CAREFUL.
He restarted the server again for me so I could redo it.
My wife did all of the Audacity stuff for me. She watched it happen, and was PISSED off.

@firechickenfan the light button at the very top stays active for about 30 seconds (not my confirmation).
Upon the first interaction, it only stays interactable for 5 more seconds (confirmed by @MessyPizzaBoy, who worked with @jjju on this Easter egg) before getting disabled.
In the meantime it is interactable, anyone can intereact with it.
Those who have interacted with it will hear the click-confirmation sound, get a smoke grenade dropped right under them, and unlock the An Escalation skin for both M1917 MG weapons.

That is not cool at all then. Good on you that you still got it but that was a move on your friends part.

The last easter egg is the same (the light one). I luckily went on to a server where one of the BFEE members was on, he literally did all the steps except for the final one and he got me the dog tag.

Forgive me if this is a little off-topic, but does anyone know if ‘The Escalation’ skin shows up in a killcard, or is it like the campaign skins?

Something tells me it’s the latter. But again I’m too lazy to do the research.

I have seen it on an enemy killcard. So, yes, it does.

Discovered by me (mcfreakreturns) on day one :wink: can i have a special prize? Haha
It was nice to get instant confirmation from the devs when i got round to posting about it. Not all my theories are crazy. Just like the birds on brusilov lol

On xbox atleast, when we did it , only the first person to click the button got the confirmation sound and activated the smoke. The others only heard the click of the button (tested with 5 people so far . On a rented server)

I wonder what puzzle to do if i wish to have invisible camo that some people use
It sounds really cool to be invisible and just melee people

atm I’m invisible only to attractive women

Haha i must be wearing camo that attracts the psychos. Lol

We found a new neebs Easter egg

no idea about the phantom program

Another one!

With help from @peterthemaniac and Discord user Yuged#7655, Neebs Chasing Kitten Togo Easter egg has been finally solved!

New Easter eggs:

Are there any newer updates since the final dlc came out?

This is how we solved An Escalation and An Omen! :smiley:

Hey everyone!

I’m planning to gather as many PC players as possible to attempt finding more behind a few Easter eggs by trying various and, hopefully, simple stuff.
We’ll be mainly hunting on public Turning Tides and Apocalypse servers, and we may switch to In the Name of the Tsar afterwards.

The event will take place this Friday at 5:00 PM CET. We’ll meet at Game Detectives’ Discord server.

If you’d like to help, join ARG Discussion 1 voice channel when the time comes as that’s also where I’ll be giving more details on what we’ll be doing.
It’s important that you:

  • abide by the Discord server rules;
  • use #battlefield text channel for coordination;
  • listen to what I and any staff member say in the voice channel.
