@Straatford87 will you consider 30 and 60Hz Server Tick Rate options in Portal?
I watched 2042 3.2 update on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUccNKQVLaQ
At 11:17, I noticed that the assault who equiped grenade launcher with AR also had 3 extra grenades
It this just bug or mistake?If not,I can see the bomb rain in the future
The emergence of Lis was a devastating blow to Tank.
Flexible aircraft are not the main goal for Lis.The tank's slow moving speed is a perfect target for a TGM.
2 shots of 54 damage can cause any attacking tank to retreat or even be destroyed, and 2 Lis can easily destroy an unprotected tank. This was the reason why most of the tanks were camped behind the battlefield along with the Irish`s APS.
On the other hand, tanks with Irish`s APS are extremely difficult to destroy,and some are even in places that are difficult for infantry to reach.
If she wants to, A player with Lis can even launch her missile after 2 shots through a suicide-deployment cycle until she destroys any of her targets without being seen and countered by tank.
I just wish Lis`s TGM can make less damage to tank or some more difficult hit tank`s debuff.
Any intention of implementing Gyro Aim and Keyboard & Mouse support on consoles?
Details about Gyro Aim in case unsure what it is:
Topic: First-Person Animations
To bring back that "immersive" feeling of previous Battlefield titles such as BF1 and BFV, are there any thoughts or efforts to bring in optional First-Person animations for solider actions? Personally, I find that whenever the camera exits my character (Sundance's wingsuit, takedown knife animations, when in downed/revive states, etc), I'm physically being taken out of the experience and my immersion is briefly lost. I don't need this for EVERY instance such as entering/exiting a vehicle, as that does have an affect on gameplay and timing, but for things such as the Wingsuit to be in 3rd person but have entirely first-person Parachute animations is a strange inconsistency to me.
Another aspect of BFV & immersion that I really enjoyed were the optional Rolling action you could perform when falling from a significant height (a feature from old-school DICE artists who worked on Mirror's Edge, I feel). I see in the latest patch notes of 3.2 that something similar was added -
"Added brand new physical landing animations when jumping or falling, different animations should now play when hitting the ground from different fall heights - don’t go too high, you may splat."
I'm excited to see these new animations and am hoping that they enhance the immersion to make it feel like my character has weight & is struggling in a war. It might not be a full "roll" like in BFV, but I love to see the steps taken to add back in immersion & a truer Battlefield experience.

I'm a believer that before we add new stuff, let us fix the problem stuff first.
So my questions are
Thank you for allowing player input.
I thought that the rockets were going to get a damage buff to better deal with all the annoying vehicles now that only 1 class can use them? there was nothing in the patch notes that show anything of that kind. It just looks like the tanks got the active protection to better deal with rockets and rockets were set to engineer only. Hopefully this is an oversight but if now this game will get even more ridiculous for infantry players. All I read was "tanks get a buff with active protection" this is sure to further upset a lot of players that have already been complaining about the vehicle plagues and underperforming anti-vehicle options.
As a player that really only plays infantry because of all the vehicle hogs that will only play with a certain vehicle all game, we desperately need ways to take down vehicles even if its skill based like the RPG-7 from BF3 or BF4 that had a large drop once fired and was much slower, so you had to be skilled to use it against vehicles at a distance or air vehicles.
The NTW-50 feels like a pea shooter against armor even though it's classified to be anti-material. The thing can't even kill an infantry player in 1 shot unless they are standing in front of you. It needs to be brought back to its pre nerf days where it was an actual threat to vehicles and not just an annoyance to them.
Can I recommend implementing a 5-minute cooldown on vehicle claiming once someone dies in a vehicle? For example; if someone dies in a Huron either piloting or as a passenger, they will NOT be able to simply sit on the spawn screen waiting for the next Huron, or other craft in the same category, to be available to claim and spawn in. Spawning on other already deployed vehicles wouldn't be affected in this scenario. This way it allows other to use vehicles also and diversify the vehicles and pilots on the field, I can't express how many times I've taken down a stealth Helicopter and 2 minutes later it's the same person piloting a stealth helicopter that kills me to take a vendetta out.
1. Does EA/DICE know that players play more during 2XP windows? Give XP for Yes
2. Will Specialists be tuned so their traits match their classes? ie, Mackay's passive with Assault Rifles, instead of SMGs?
2a. Since Paik is Recon, can you change her passive to something like: "The player that spots or damages you will be spotted"?
3. How difficult is it to make any of the maps night maps?
4. Can you add a snownado to Breakaway so the Penguins can hide? Give XP for Yes
