Oh well, I just hope it’s not being delayed because of the current situation. Or the delay isn’t significant. Because many people will agree that the current chapter has been disappointing in many ways.

SA servers up again - even though it’s only temporarily - is such a good move from you guys.
It’s irrelevant to me as I’m not playing from that region, but I know that SA servers mean a lot to the BFV players there.

I am actually quite surprised but in a good way; I didn’t think EA would green light any expenses related to BFV apart from the bare minimum.

Despite the lack of things I can point to, I find this reasuring nonetheless. Thanks for this info. glad to know things are still moving forward.

Just to clarify with the trailer contest: cinimatic includes trailer clips and cutscenes, correct? My hudless gameplay is… let’s not go there.
But I already plondered the soundcloud.

So the RSA severs that were taken away from us are coming back TEMPORARILY!!! as announced, I have been playing battlefield since BF2 and bought and played every release after, the whole RSA community is soooooo disappointed in EA and DICE for doing this to us, we have all moved to COD where we are playing competitively like we were doing on bfv before you guys shut us down!!! COD game might not be as great as battlefield games but at least they haven’t screwed us like you guys have done, from myself I doubt I’ll ever spend another cent on a DICE developed game and Im sure the rest of RSA feel the same way, my game is deleted and i won’t reload just to waste my data on something that is getting brought back temporarily​… Soooooooo EA and DICE so long and I wish battlefield well​and a fresh new start to COD​

Best Regards

No. We don’t want you remaking the trailer by using our trailers. It won’t disqualify you, but we are looking for YOUR content.
Cinematic is your hudless/spectator mode captured gameplay.

Hi,

Can we get an update on the anti cheat efforts?
Some anti cheat answers would be nice:

Why can’t FairFight detect obvious “100-0 in the first 2 minutes shooting from the spawn into the other spawn at the start of the match” cheaters and ban them immediately?
Why did Origin stop sending confirmation e-mails on the player reporting option?

Any update would be appreciated. Some stats on # players banned would be nice.
CoD can do it, why can’t EA/DICE comment on it?

Hackusations are rife because the anti cheat efforst are failing.
As it stands now it feels like nothing is being done about it.

So please acknowledge this rampant issue.
