So many people I respond to on Reddit are so ignorant. They either go waffling on about portal even though everyone makes a point of saying solo, or they say Dice has already responded and done lots of fixes as is so they're not ignoring us.
This is straight up ridiculous ffs fix your damn ea or give a reply so we can all go ahead and sue yall for false advertising wasted a week of this crap hoping it's gonna get fixed I guess I'm getting a refund and going back to halo infinite
Had this earlier.......... not exactly a answer but hey something better than nothing.
Less than a 24hrs before release and despite nothing is done about Solo and Portal XP, now i cant even load into AoW PvP match. Tested on PS5, XSX and PC just now and on all 3 platforms i got connection error. This is a new low tbh. Game is also hard crashed Xbox, lol.
48 pages Holy *. I'm lv 51 still no progression. This might be a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. SOMEONE @eahelp better get in here with more than a canned paste message the community is beginning to turn hostile about this. Keep dumping fuel on this fire 🔥 as long as it takes
To be honest I think it's not that they're going downhill still.
I think of it more like if you're rooting in a cesspit for something you just dropped in it - everytime you think you've found it and pull it out, it's something else you wish you hadn't seen, smelt or touched.
It's the same cesspit. It's just another unpleasant surprise.
Someone just made a new thread on Reddit, if you want to chime in there too.
November 10th. press release.
https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-get-ready-for-launch
"All experience you earned in Battlefield™ 2042 is universal and shared across all its modes, which means you’ll be leveling up and unlocking new weapons, gadgets, and cosmetics no matter which mode you’re playing."
November 12th. early access becomes available. pay an extra 30 dollars (or more) to get in 7 days early.
November 12th. portal action taken. no more mastery tracking or ribbons.
November 18th. still little or no acknowledgement of the issue.
November 18th. this is the 5th entire day (out of 7 total that you paid extra for) that you cannot play the mode the promised you on the 10th.
Speculation: they want to leave a bunch of stuff turned off and they are weighing the legal implications of their options. It's the only thing I think would make sense for radio silence. It's something many companies do when there is a security violation or data breach or potential lawsuit. They make a "war room" and only people who are "need to know" have any idea whats going on in that room until they can formulate a legalese way forward with their plans.
Suggestion: return the game if you can. at least get your 30-50 dollars for early access back since you didn't get the access you were told you were paying for. If/when they fix it get the standard edition (unless of course you want the skins and whatever from gold or ultimate). Don't feel discouraged about your play time. when false advertising is in play all the distributors of the product are on the hook so it is likely whatever platform you bought the game on will be willing to help if you are polite and descriptive of what your expectations were, why those were your expectations, and how those expectations were circumvented AFTER you paid for the game.
I know we've all been feeling pretty * over but just remember that the people you are able to get in contact with are support people and they rarely are anywhere near the actual dev teams. their primary function is to help people use the game not really to fix it. Those people CANNOT fix anything and very likely have no idea what the plan is for resolution or in some cases are even given a gag order.
Just try to stay positive and kind when dealing with support. They are having a bad day too because of this game.
@WababoboI plan to keep throwing sht at this wall until something sticks; they can keep ignoring us but as word spreads and more people realize they are not getting what they paid for they will be backed into a corner eventually.
If nothing else, just make solo and MP separate, that would be fine, then anyone abusing it would not benefit over other who do not.
Same boat here bud, I've always been the type to keep going no matter how desperate the situation is. If it takes years to get an answer so be it. If we make a fire big enough to blaze up the sky, then EA's gonna have to talk about it eventually. Keep it up boys, we got this!
One (of many) things I absolutely hate about games companies is that they seem to always get away with stuff that no one else would.
No one else can promise so much in their products, and then either release them with them missing, or disabled after release, and nothing happens.
500
Aah, I just missed the 500th reply.
I couldn't think of a witty way to snag it and call EA refuse of the lowest order in time.
I'll be playing one more round this evening, and if I get no progression, I'll be asking for a refund, I think.
I think this thread can easily reach 1000 posts this day, lol.
If this keeps being an issue after tomorrow they're probably gonna end up with no choice but to address it, because then the game is actually out for everyone, fingers crossed but definitely not optimistic now.
