Getting us all on the same page, friendly reminder that Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes kicks off here in January and lasts until March where we change gears and roll out Chapter 3: Trial by Fire.
As we stoke up the fire, you’ll be learning more about Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes including new content, new challenges, the all-new Combined Arms co-op experience, two new game Modes, and more! Stick with us through any of Battlefield’s channels so you don’t miss a beat. In the meantime, below you’ll find a glimpse at what to expect this week within the Battlefield V community.

Coming in 1st place on my team with less kills than anybody in the top 10 is the ultimate feeling for me.
Lol, nope. Trying to put players with higher pings onto a level playing field is not giving them a participation trophy, not even close. I would say it is the opposite- people on low pings would be at an unfair advantage and should be getting the participation trophy. A player with a 15ms ping is like getting a 10m head start in the 100m dash over a player with a 65ms ping. You are looking at it wrong. I am stuck on a 65ms ping as the closest server is in Sydney, on the other side of the country.
