We’re finalizing our next Letters from the Front and will update the above calendar when it’s ready to release.

Link to section: Update 4.6Update 4.6

The dev team are working on finalizing the build for Update 4.6. We’ll keep you updated on the progress and when you can expect it to release as we get updates from the Dev team.

if the update does not include the new underground map and private servers, it will be a new disappointment of the community

@Braddock512 ; Question, alongside with this week’s ToW Mission ending, isn’t also Chapter 4 ending at the same time? I finished Chapter 4 already, but it might be useful info for folks who haven’t finished the chapter yet and are still looking to get some of the chapter rewards.

Hopefully the next update is enough to keep people includong myself from going to call of duty.

So no news about RSP at all? Will it be included with 4.6 or it’s not going to be shipped in September after all?

Well seeing as there is absolutely nothing to do this week as DICE preps the next big update might as well try CoD Modern Warfare Beta which is out on Friday 20th on PC.

I wish DICE would stop with these big wholesale updates that break more than they fix, smaller individual updates for issues would work much better. Like the ping issue, concentrate on one thing at a time and things are less likely to go pear shaped.

“HotFix” for ping ??

Sadly not.

@Braddock512 when does the next chapter start and what’s going on until the start of the next chapter?

Letters from the Front

We’re finalizing our next Letters from the Front and will update the above calendar when it’s ready to release.

As noted last Monday:

Update fromu/PartWelshRegarding the Increased Ping Issue, Looting Issue, and Mouse Control Issue
“Update on the High Ping Issue Battlefield - We’ve tried to make something work for this week in terms of a Hotfix, but we want to take more time to ensure that the issue is resolved fully, and correctly, and so will be including this in our 4.6 Update releasing later this month.”-Braddock512

Absolutely shameful to not patch the ping issue asap. To leave the game severely compromised for a month (?) is amateur hour.

same here, very tempted as i am getting fed up of how bad BF V is playing.

The next patch is this games last chance, lag, ping, hit detection needs to be fixed ASAP and as an urgency. We are not getting next chapter for a few weeks so a break is in order until the new patch/content hits.

Al Sundan or Al Sundon’t?

same here, if the game is not fixed and private games launched, im switching to COD for good.

TLDR: This week in battlefield: something will happen later this week.

Im sure you are aware butI need to make a point that this feels like you guys are taking the p… Its literally a latency issue on a competitive multiplayer game introduced by a patch and you decided to roll it into a later release and you guys are still calling it a live service.

It’s clearly not live and I don’t feel like anyone is being done a service. I know it’s not on you personally @Braddock512 but i gotta say this is appalling under the lens of the previous “apology” we received.

This community contains a lot of people with a solid understanding of development and dev principles as well as the technology/infrastructure involved and I don’t think you guys can honestly say this was the best way to handle this issue this past release.

Im genuinely surprised the community is not more up in arms. Maybe they have had expectations lowered to this point and just given up.

Couldn’t agree more, if and when 4.6 comes out it’s going to be over a month of high latency. It’s a so called live service without any of the benefits of a live service, ie anything dynamic - quick fixes, content drops (other than cosmetics) or proactive tweaks. This ‘Live service’ has no pulse, might as well turn the life support off already!

I’m pretty stunned how badly this is being dealt with but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, the apathy is definitely setting in for me.

game is getting very close to being deleted, sick and tired of the frustration while playing due to -

  1. sound issues
  2. cant hear enemies around you
  3. LAG
  4. PING
  5. Being seen in cover
  6. Enemies being able to spot you at a moments notice and take you down before or while you react
  7. theres loads more but getting tired of repeating…

FIX THE GAME FOR GODS SAKE

I’ll quote myself. Done until the next patch.
