Discussion & Feedback - Battlefield V Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes Update #2

EA_Alexander

Hello Battlefield Community,

Following the update earlier in January, this release introduces the Sturmgeschutz IV vehicle – an Axis tank (or assault gun, technically) well equipped for self-defense, with a top gunner position and a remotely controlled machinegun turret that can be operated safely from within the tank. Unlock the Sturmgeschutz IV by completing the Weekly Challenge of the third Chapter Event of Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes.

More functionality is being added to our Practice Range, many improvements are coming to the Panzerstorm map and, as always, so are several fixes and tweaks. We’ve also made changes based upon the feedback and issue reports from the Battlefield™ community.

We're always looking for your feedback! Once the new update will go live for your platform, take a look at the full Update Notes and let us know what you think.

Thanks and we'll see you on the battlefield!

PLEASE FIX THE BLENHEIM MAIN GUNS! Now neither versions of the Blenheim can rearm their primary weapons. I have also experienced the Blenheim loosing a set of bombs completely while in flight! Please fix the many minor issues in the game!

You guys did it! Bleeding out-killcam-torture has been drastically reduced in the latest update, and I LOVE it! This is the first change I do endorse and appreciate. Thanks DICE/ EA!

Nice patch, but i wonder when you're gonna do something regarding anti cheating which apparently is non existing at the moment and totally ruins the game, i do not get any e-mail confirmation either when reporting cheaters.

Once the update loaded all my current assignments reset and are now not tracking after playing.

Yeah nice patch, and I had to report twice for crash during spawning into a tank, everything stops like i'm dead but no, i'm still hearing people playing, and I am stuck in a ghost tank, bring back the re-deploy, OMG, fix this sh.t up

Thank you for continuing to make updates.

• Please widen the boundaries on game modes. It is sometimes impossible to flank an enemy position because the boundary is way too close to the objective area.
• Please add 16 and 32 person games for max # of players.
• Please slow the pace/rate at which soldiers run.
• Please bring back commander artillery mode like you had in BF2

Fix Iron Sight for Selbstlader 1906 with Night Owl camo pls

Did you secretly add horizontal recoil to the Ribeyrolles? The weapon seems to jump left and right way more than before the 29.01. update.

What about the HIGHLIGHTS on Nvidia cards? I used in the beta and was a nice option

Sublime281

When are previous tides of war weapons going to be available to users who missed out on them or bought the game later on? The game is already lacking in content and they decide to make weapons available to unlock for one week only, therefore further restricting content.

Black screens still rampant, vaulting still trash. Guessing not a single coder/developer plays this game.

Why will a vehicle be unlockable via Weekly Challenges?
There are already few vehicles: why do we need to complete poorly implemented challenges to unlock vehicles now?

Issues regarding the changes:
1. AA is really powerful, you can shoot down fighters and attackers in one burst (without overheating). Stukas have like no chance to evade. If the pilot does not use fast repair they are dead. British mobile aa is even better now.
2. It seems like you cant revive people while they are watching killcam (directly after they died, you have to wait a few seconds)
3. The damage indicator is again bugged and does not point into the direction of the enemy shooting at you.
4. "Transitioning to prone is no longer possible if there is not enough space to fit the player. This
means that players will no longer attempt to prone if there isn’t enough space to begin with. " Does not work in certain locations, you lay down and stand up instandly (Devastation)
5. "The heal button now gets highlighted when the player should use a health pack" The highlight is too big

Nice stuff:
faster ledge graping, bipod, smg graphic bug fixed, joining friends in full squads, panzerstorm improvements (but some bushes are still bullet proof)

xHaynesworth

I am wondering if anyone else have the same problem I've had since the update.
When zoomed in with sniper scopes, the scope twitches like crazy, left to right, up and down when prone, making it really hard to hit anything.

I think this time I've unfortunately got more issues than issue fixes after an update
1) sound - overall game is really quiet now, I can hear footseps well (not that bad compared to how it was a month ago) but in general sound is very, very quiet after todays patch
2) within 5 minutes I'm always able to spot 1 friendly soldier that looks like this (both in game and when spectating)

3) bug where I am unable to leave the game has returned
https://imgur.com/421f1m1
4) and the last one, I believe most important. I have played 8 games today and not even single one was balanced (I've changed server each time). Most of the time I was fortunate to be on winning team but the difference between teams was always massive (~400-0) and so one of those always dominated the field. Some matches were ridiculous to an extent where I had to run across whole Twisted Steel in order to spot 1 (1!) enemy... I have never ever experienced such chain of bad matches before.

ammo still falls through map. ^ literally zero changes in the mechanic or behavior.

the 2 types of black screens that have been around since BF1 Beta, guessing you forgot?

damage models are trash. invisible beacon due to damage and visible windows that cannot be shot through?


needless to say, your patch is worthless.

Krag reload is bugged on ps4 plz fix.

joachimeberhard

Lag got much, much worse.

I now have the same rubberbanding that was plagueging Battlefront 2 since launch.

Now, I think you ported this over to Battlefield V.

Also, I still have the issue that the ingame menus sometines do not work during play.
This means I cannot quit, change squad, view scoreboard etc during play.

Very annoying bug.

Also, please nerf the Assault.
Too strong at sniping, even better than Recon.

Much like a 1 Man Army.

I have this Black Screen bug too.
Forces me to quit the game to do anything.

Wtf

Now AA is so Overpowered that you cant fly for more than a few sec. AA tanks are more powerful than ever (also you cant survive more than a sec.). When Op spitfire VA shoots you the camera is shaking so hard that you cant see where you shooting. BAD VERY BAD.
