Re: BF4 2x/4x XP events

Thank you @IIPrest0nII for this insight on the Battlefield event calendar. Following our official Twitter channel is the best way to get all the latest news about any future events.

Cheers,

Okay, thank you for this.

But who is going to answer my question?

When were the last few XP events for BF4 and when will the next one be?

When I click on 'https://twitter.com/Battlefield' the page doesn't exist.

And on 'https://www.battlefield.com/calendar' there is absolutely NO MENTION of BF4 XP weekends.

Hey @MujiXxX,

if I remember correctly, the last double XP event took place this spring around March / April.

The Battlefield calendar, as outlined above, now covers all Battlefield titles. The current event is BF1 Premium Friends until Gamescom, but it is updated frequently with events, usually a few days before they actually start, so just check back regularly.

The twitter link you provided works perfectly fine for me - so stay tuned for future events!

You all get my point. BF1 has taken over and BF4 players are being ignored.

If the last XP weekend was months ago when is the next one?

Are we really expected to only have 2 or 3 XP weekends a year for BF4?

Well, you probably have XP boosts, so just use them. Also, I understand that you are disappointed, but Developers go only forward and in the end, 2XP events will end like in Battlefield 3. It is the matter of time  🤔

Not helpful at all.

If developers only go forward then they cannot learn from the past - and someone who doesn't learn from the past is a fool.

It would take hardly any work or maintenance to implement a 2xXP weekend and it would make the current BF4 players, of which there are still a huge number and who paid a lot of money to play the game, still feel valued. It would be a very short outlay of time for a huge reaction of gratitude.

Hello @MujiXxX 

Just want to be sure that you know about 2XP in Battlefield 4. It's active right now, so don't miss it 🙂  For more information check this topic: 2XP is active in Battlefield 4!

That's more like it. It has taken a while for them to realise that BF4 players are loyal and have, over the years, spent a lot of money and been very supportive of the game. Excellent news that there was a bonus XP period.

Also, I noticed that this weekend (19th/20th August) there is 2xXP for BF1 but not BF4 - looks like we'll be waiting a long time for the next one for BF4 players!

EDIT - there is nothing else for BF4 on the calendar at all and yet things mentioned for BF1 all the way till 2018. The last DLC for BF4 was released less than 2 years ago and yet there seems to be a total lack of care for BF4 players.

Hey @MujiXxX,

the calendar is updated regularly. The events are usually announced on shorter notice than any updates or DLCs would be. So don't let the lack of 2XP announcements disencourage you, they're also announced close towards the event dates for BF1, not only BF4 usually.

I am getting the feeling that BF4 is dead in the water and no one at EA really cares about its users anymore.

The 'Calendar' page is now called the BF1 Calendar page and does not even mention BF4.

I think we are not likely to get any XP weekends again.

@MujiXxX

There is no reason to worry. Battlefield 3 still gets 2XP sometimes and Battlefield 4 too. Check time-to-time Battlefield Calendar and follow Battlefield Twitter:

Remember that Developers turn on 2XP in BF1; BF4; BF3 during various events  🙂

Thank you for responding.

But if you look at the tab for that web page it says 'Battlefield 1 Calendar'. There is no mention of BF4 (or BF3) and there are no events for BF4 mentioned below it either.

The last event for BF4 was in July. That's three MONTHS ago.

As for tw!tter, I went back and checked and there has been no mention of BF4 in Aug, Sep or October.

Saying about Battlefield Calendar, there you can see 2XP event that was on October 12-15

As was mentioned before, this calendar about all Battlefield games even if it was named "Battlefield 1 Calendar"  General events were for BF1 yes, but there are some events like 2XP for other Battlefield's. Look at screenshot 🙂

Battlefield 3 was released in 2011 and it still gets 2XP. I think you should not worry about Battlefield 4.

Okay, but let's put it into context. Here is the whole page and there is one small mention of BF4 which I obviously missed... but it was pretty easy to miss.
