Last update on what may come was 3 weeks ago. They're not exactly overloading us with information still.

Update 3.1a, b, etc. Some of hese things don’t seem like such a long chore, you don’t need to just wait and try and put out the “perfect” patch, just do some small ones in between. If (when lol) one of those messes something else up, you’ll have a smaller sampling of things that might have caused it. It would also bring some much needed relief to those of crazy enough to still be trying to play this game. Micro-updates.

When the game released it was in a bad state, but I saw EA/DICE posting daily tweets about recognizing issues with the game, and pushing almost instant small updates and balance patches. Like for example disabling the proximity sensor as it caused performance issues and then fixing those quickly. This really gave me hope for the future of the game and its "live service".
And all of a sudden this stopped. The company went on holiday. And it feels like they never came back. Rare communication from the teams, promises for open discussions, promises for updates and changes. But in reality I don't see the game progressed much since mid december.
I can't speak for the whole community, but I feel disappointed and sad because EA/DICE is not talking to us. I am angry not because I "wasted" money on an unfinished game, but because I know EA/DICE are capable of making a great game, but for some reason they don't want to and they don't want to share why. And I feel helpless. We're not going to like every update you push, but that's what feedback means. You push an update, the community reacts.
