Request for More Frequent Outpost Mode Sessions in Battlefield V
Dear Battlefield and EA Team, I am writing to express a strong request on behalf of the Battlefield V community regarding the availability of the Outpost game mode. Currently, Outpost sessions are far too infrequent and limited in duration. This is disappointing for many of us, as we believe Outpost offers the most tactical combat and intense adrenaline in the game. It consistently draws high player participation because of its unique blend of strategy and action. Similar to how the community felt when "The Pacific War" rotation was moved, the lack of Outpost sessions is a significant letdown. We strongly urge you to update the game calendar to include Outpost more frequently. Please consider giving this mode the presence it deserves. We look forward to seeing more tactical warfare on the horizon. Best regards,
My system freezes whenever I play any Battlefield game.
I can launch both Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5, but after a while my computer completely freezes and I can't do anything. I have to reset the computer using the reset button. Windows 11 event logs show a BTHUSB error, I think the anti-cheat is causing the problem.
Servers are (almost) unplayable: lag + stuttering
On top of the ongoing chat bug (for well over 3 weeks now, basically nobody can type/send messages), there’s a new major issue since the last 1–2 days: the servers are almost unplayable. What’s happening: heavy lag constant stuttering / hitching during gameplay This is not limited to one region — it affects both EU and Asian servers, and it happens on community servers as well as official DICE servers.
Tower of babbel easteregg
I have been trying to get the Eidolon skin for couple days now. 3 days ago i made a breakthrough and manages to get to the final floating platforms and pass it and building the last set of stairs to ending. Boom. Disconnect "connection to EA lost" i didnot give it much thought. Waste of 70 minutes. Yeaterday. After many runs and attempts. We made it again.Got to the final floating platforms. Passed them. And while breaking the glass!!!! The same disconnect happens. Also after about 70 minutes of gameplay. Is there a hidden time limit. Or is it outright rigged? Because i cant make sense of reaching thr very end and disconnecting twice. And the disconnect only happens at the end too. All the other failed attempts and run never had disconnection. But the only 2 successful omes of my life. Are the 2 disconnections at the end. I went to sleep pissed off yesterday because of this. Believing this is rigged. Iam not planning of giving this another try as each time we try for day. And each success is about 70 mimutes of time wasted. Umtil i recieve help here.
Battlefield V crashing on start up
So I'm not really sure what's going on. But I just reinstalled the game and every time I launch it, the game runs at like 30 fps in the menu and it has HDR on. My monitor does not support HDR and it is disabled in my settings on Windows 11. So any time I try to turn HDR off the game crashes. Any time I try to set it to windowed mode, it crashes. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. I have the game installed on a hard drive as I do not have anymore space on my SSDs. PC Specs: Ryzen 5 3600XT 16GB DDR4 3600 MHz GTX 1080 TI 11GB GDDR5X Samsung 128GB SSD (Boot drive) Patriot 240GB SSD (Extended storage) Toshiba 500GB HDD (Extended storage) I am unable to find any other thread of anyone else having the same issue as me. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
It's Impossible to Play BF5 anymore because of all the hackers on the server
How can one hacker be playing all day in all the servers, being reported and keep playing, off course this means reporting don't do anything. Are you guys really doing anything? Can't you see that they are ruining this game for all? Soon there is no one else playing this. And only the guys with good pc's can play the new BF2042, since, mine can't I have to play BF5. But because of all this hacking going on, I CAN'T Because they are continuously hacking. I See level 280 hacking, how come this guy is hacking without a problem for so long? I see a lot of speed hacking, they can spawn with the planes or tanks from the other team, they can kill everyone on the server, they can crash the server. BF5 become a Hacking Paradise, is this it? So we normal players can't play proper anymore because they ruining it, I sow a Plane shooting missiles non-stop as it didn't need to rearm... I sow a speed hack guy running around my tank, killing me with his bare hands almost instantly? Tell me how can we enjoy playing this? U ruined this game when u took out the ability to vote ban the hackers on the server with the proper amount of ppl on it, without and admin can be present to administer the server. So it's goodbye for the proper player fans? The end of BF5? PS: I'm very upset for this, and i didn't buy the new BF or would buy anything more from u guys, cause you'ren't doing what the community asks for it...
BFV cannot join any server – stuck on infinite loading screen
Hi, Since today, Battlefield V appears to be completely unplayable. Unable to join any server (infinite black loading screen) Chat works, but the match never starts and eventually disconnects This happens on all servers It’s also impossible to create a local/community server This looks like a global backend issue rather than a client problem. Is this currently being investigated? Thanks.
BFV Spectator Mode Broken
I've made a lot of videos in the Spectator mode, not recently though. So i go to film some stuff today and notice its completely not functioning how it should do, even loaded BF1 and that spectator mode is fine. Don't know when you broke it with an update at some point but please fix it so spectator mode can actually be used correctly.
Armory not Updating.
What happened to the armory? the featured section of the bfv armory used to update. [seasonal item/discounted items would appear time to time] My question is why? from what I’ve seen, this bug is on all platforms. i was wondering if this feature was disabled by ea… or a bug that could simply be fixed. I appreciate a reply. Sincerely 47captains
BFV, repeated disconnections from EA servers
Hi everyone, I come here after a problem that I got 1 year ago, I didn't resolved it, and 2 weeks ago (as I recently changed my second HDD I thought I could try one more time) I downloaded again BF5, was able to play 4-5 days then the problem came back. I’ve been having repeated disconnections from EA servers while playing Battlefield V. The error typically says I’ve lost connection to EA servers. This started happening again recently after a period of stable gameplay (about a week where it worked fine). The message is "Unable to connect to the EA servers. Please check your network connection, or try again later. See ea.com/unable-to-connect for additional information." It happen whether in the menu or inside a multiplayer game, not with a specific timing but from 2 min to 10 no more. I'm disconnected, I have the message, and if I'm in a game it made me leave it then I loose my progress, have to search another game etc, it's completely impossible to play. It happen only on BF5, I don't have any problem for streaming, surfing or playing others online games, it's ONLY for Battlefield 5... I tried a lot of things I saw on internet, with some topics or youtube videos, but nothing worked. About my configuration, I have a GTX 1060 6Go, Intel Core I7 6700k, 32Go RAM, 20% free space on my SSD system and 95% free space on my HDD, W10 on the latest version, optical fibre connection. What I’ve already tested/tried: 1) Network & router: -Reset my router and tested both via Wi-Fi and Ethernet. -Removed any repeaters/extenders. -Tried using a mobile 4G hotspot (different network/provider) → same issue. -Ran ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset, etc. multiple times. -Disabled IPv6 in my network adapter settings. -Verified that the issue is not with my EA account (logged in on another PC at home, no disconnects at all for 15+ minutes). -Ran tracert and ping tests, everything looked normal apart from a few expected timeouts at distant hops. 2) PC-related: -Created a new Windows user account → same issue. -Updated BIOS to the latest version. -Tried updating my network card drivers (Intel I219-V, on ASRock B250M-HDV motherboard) but had compatibility issues and stayed with the current working driver. -Performed a repair/reinstall of the game. -Fully reinstalled Windows 10 (kept my files/programs) → issue persists. -Checked firewall and Windows Defender settings. -Followed advice to allow EA and BFV executables through Controlled Folder Access in Windows Security Ransomware Protection → no improvement. 3) Other checks: -Tested other online games: no issues or disconnections there. -No VPN or special firewall rules in place. -Network works fine for everything else. What it’s probably NOT: -My internet connection (issue persists across different networks and no issue on other PCs). -My EA account (no disconnects when using my account on another machine). -A Windows profile-specific issue. -A simple driver or BIOS version problem (already updated/tested). Extra thoughts: At this point, I’m wondering if it could be something deeper like: -A network stack issue specific to my Windows install, -Some hidden conflict with my hardware or software setup, -Or possibly a rare bug with BFV + EA App on my exact configuration. Do you have any additional troubleshooting ideas or logs you’d like me to provide? Thanks a lot in advance for any help 🙏 Or if you have something like a live logs in game that can help me to see what's happening at the disconnections and maybe determine the problem.
Newest EA anti cheat Javelin causing more headache than EAC EA Anti Cheat
Previously with EAC EA Anti cheat, you could just manually update, allowing Windows Defender to exclude file checking and turning Power Plan to Balanced, in-game problem usually gone or kept at minimum. Now with their latest toy, Battlefield V is almost unplayable, constantly crashing every minute, causing micro stutter and spawning bugs. Oh and not to mention breaking any other device driver. I wonder if this is their way of turning people away from the old games as new installment launch is imminent. There's old adage, A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and There is no such thing as perfect security, only varying levels of insecurity. To sum it up, making anti cheat more hostile is only driving your fan base away, fast response and tough firm decision to ban all cheater are still best way.Battlefield V is not opening
I'm attaching a video so that you guys can understand the problem. I try to explain it here also - When I try to open the game, the dialogue box opens, and it closes, but the game does not open. And when I check Steam, it shows the game is running and also shows run time, but in reality, I never played the game because it never opens.
HELP: Backup Between Different Platforms
Hello, I've played BF V on EA platform for years. I don't have it on Steam. Recently, I purchased the game on Steam on the most recent discounts. If I launch the game, will I have all my progress backed up on Steam from EA? If not, how to get them back? Thank you
