Why hasn’t chapter 6 started yet?! Did the devs not know chapter 5 was ending? I mean they gave us a countdown to when 5 was ending. Did they not remember that date/time? Guess we’ll sit on our thumbs until Dice decides to communicate with it’s community. Hi. Since you just joined Battlefield V in December 25, 2019, you may be unaware that the Devs leave a 1-2 week gap between Chapters. As we’re heading into Chapter 6, this has already happeend 4 other times (you weren’t playing BFV then, so you weren’t aware.) That being said - no need to get sassy regarding “didn’t they remember date/time”? Cool? Cool. Like many others, I’m getting sick of this, “filling this gap with some of our favorite maps and mode rotations until the start of Chapter 6… We won’t be updating to 6.0 next week, but I’ll be sharing that news with you all as soon as it’s fit to print” Fit to print?! In other words, (We have no clue where we’re at with the update so here are some old maps that you can play without being able to see a dang thing because “weather effects are cool…” The update won’t be next week but we’ll let you know a week before it’s ready to roll out.) Do you guys read what you release to us? Just come clean with your community. Let us know where you’re at. While the team is finalizing and QAing the update, we have to be careful with details - as some things could be moved/removed - and timelines - as they can shift based on Certification and Approval processes. This is why we deliver the update notes the day before the update - to ensure nothing has shifted last minute. Admit you screwed up with the last ttk update. Tell us the holidays pushed you back, for whatever reason or maybe you didn’t know the holidays were coming and didn’t plan ahead. Tell us that we won’t realistically see a 6.0 for a month or however long it’s going to take. I think management over at Dice needs a big shakeup. Starting with whoever decided the last ttk was a good idea and that you were going to stick to your guns against all advice from your community. As if the new players you’d get after Christmas would somehow play more than your core player base… Serious, look up BFV TTK on YouTube and see if you can find one video of a player that was happy with the changes. The most popular videos I see are along the lines of “I’m going to stop playing BFV, switching to COD until they fix TTK”. We just released this Community Broadcast to talk about the Weapon Balance changes that have happened, how we’re going to be updating them to be closer to 5.0 (pre-5.2/5.2.2) but not a full revert. [Community Broadcast: Checking in before Chapter 6](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/community-broadcast-checking-in-before-chapter-6/105580) Please use us for advice, we’re right here. Ask us what we want. This is what our forums, reddit and Twitter are for. This is your first post. We haven’t’ forgotten EA’s Patrick Soderlund speaking for the entirety of Dice saying “either accept it or don’t buy the game”. I thought you learned your lesson and decided to listen to us instead of push us aside and publicly say that the reason your company is successful (i.e. the community) is “uneducated”. This next update will determine whether or not a lot of your fan base comes back, or more decided to leave. Best of luck and again please be honest with us. We want to love your game. I’ve been a loyal fan since 2142 came out. It’s us that’s important. It’s us that makes you money. It’s us that review and stream your game that in turn creates the most buzz and creates the most new users. I struck through that part because he literally hasn’t been at EA in 18 months. To be honest, it’s an unnecessary point to make when you’re talking about this update and info today. Hope that cleared up things for you a bit. And welcome to the community. -Braddock512 --- _[View the full topic](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/this-week-in-battlefield-v-january-21-2020-edition/107471)._
