Please tell the devs either revert 5.0 or make and an official hardcore mode that counts towards ToW.
I'm sure you've seen countless community members saying the same thing.
Thanks.
Drop your satchel there , pick up your weapon over here!
You're needed at Charlie - go Go Go!
Beside to fix the game, the next steps should be forcing activities against cheating - its overhelming right now on PC, take as well reference to the cheating discussions in this Forum and discussions on other platforms.
It's time DICE and EA at least show some interest as hacking is on 95% of servers l play on.
and fix the cheating on PC
the game feels like complete garbage and its 0 fun to play
Most of the time I can't even get myself to finish a match. The experience is so **** now that after five minutes I already find myself thinking of another game to play.
PUBG had been satisfying my leathal gun itch lately. And it has no spotting! 😍
THE Servers and the Game is dead allready....
I Sincerly hope that the move to use DICE-LA was somewhat related with thier rly bad long term support and messed up patches in 5.2 and 5.2.2 i hope once the power goes back to sweden some good will come from it....
1. The big one - DICE LA hasn't worked on Battlefield V since ... August. And that was just the two maps Lofoten Islands and Provence being refitted to the base game once the 5v5 mode was cancelled. Stockholm has basically been driving all the content and game changes otherwise - not that it matters, as we are one team. (Just a note - most of the DLC content for BF1 was done in DICE LA, as was a lot of fixes for BF4 & the 2nd year maps, the BF4 CTE, etc. Facts are fun, huh?)
2. You can literally post without profanity - or don't post.
3. The team is continuing to look at more tweaks and changes post 5.2.2 Hotfix based on data, telemetry, and feedback. (Note, feedback isn't "REVERT!" It's concise, constructive, well-thought-out detailed comments that cite examples and offer suggestions.)
4. Insults and abuse aren't necessary - and are technically violation of the forums. Consider this your warning.
5. The studio was on holiday from around December 20 - January 7. And yeah, we will celebrate the holidays as individuals and as a company. Not even apologizing for that.
Have a good one.

The team released a horrible update no one likes in hopes of bringing in Christmas noobs while giving a huge middle finger to the core community that supported the game through it's ups and downs then just left on holiday while leaving us with a broken unsatisfying game to play.
If you think that's okay then you're just a perfect example of what's wrong with the company.
I put up with the lack of team balancing, anti-cheat and the endless list of bugs as I enjoyed the core game-play so much and it kept me coming back for more.
TTK 5.2 AND 5.2.2 have ruined it for me. It is no longer fun. Insurmountable problems BFV is now facing. None of this was necessary - the changes were the last insult to me and quite possibly many others that have supported the game over the last year and indeed the franchise over the last 17 years. I'm not going to forget how this has gone down, DICE and EA have treated us with utter contempt, so I will return the favour...
to top it of no info was given again if something will happen to please the core players.. what a ballsy move would have been realising the HUGE MISTAKE you did with 5.2 and just rolling it back that would have given so many players such fun and great holidays but no you thought nah our new roadmap wants lower skilled people and also not to forget we need to make SMG fights happen allot since 3 (iam counting the BAR aswell..) NEW guns are all about CQB and the ppl must farm them to play and have the "new op" stuff.. nah this game gotten so bad just like BF1 thats ither 3x Scoper or Automatico close quarters feels kinda lame and almoast like Battlefront with its integrated Spread of bullets... i mean come on have you guys not played Battlefield 3 ? with stuff like the AEK or G3 ? where it was actually fun to play mid-long range combats and try and sneak over the battlefield utilizing cover to flank and kill? CQB is quite harder to coordinate expecially if you are identifyed as a hostile player with a HUGE Marker..
also i have noticed allot of Spoted ppl Blinking with Markers all over the place and its just plane and simply BAD... its just WRONG....
I Actually uninstalled and stopped Playing cause you Always say you care about Telemetry so mutch. But srsly why should i stop for that just to make a point ? No i just play like i dont care anymore and it even improved my kd ... Just stay in mid range combat zone and one shot kill ppl with the Jungle carbine... (i bet you nerv that gun aswell although it stands no chance to the likes of any smg below 30m...) before i enjoyed the combat with an m1a1 so mutch just run and hunt tanks and help the team and cap objectives but now nah the fun is gone time to play meta guns and hoping to find a full and BALANCED server..
Maybe consider making 2 different Balance versions of the game regardig PC and Console....
