@TheStraightRazor I'd better have spent this money on liquor, at least I know that makes me happy without doubt; instead I sit here wishing they could just fix this so I can have my fun.

  Just for the hell of it, I tried talking to Live Chat a few minutes ago. I got basically less than nothing but I honestly don't blame the assistant for that. (My own and the assistant's names removed for privacy reasons.

  So when playing Battlefield 2042 in the All Out Warfare mode in Solo/Coop, I don't appear to be recieving credit for the kills I'm getting with the various weapons and equipment in the game. Additionally, I think I was supposed to receive some attachments for the M5A3 rifle as a part of my Ultimate Edition preorder however while I had those items immediately after the launch last week, they have since disappeared. There's currently a thread on the bug report forum with several hundred replies and an EA rep reiterated some previous information regarding lowered XP gains in that mode, however my concern is not with XP which I am gaining fine, but with the kills not counting for attachments and vehicles. I was hoping the issue might be resolved as we moved closer to tomorrow's launch, however there doesn't appear to be any information being posted in the forum so I was hoping a more direct approach might yield more information on the subject. Thank you!

  Alright, thanks for clarifying the issue.
  
  Please allow me couple of minutes to discuss it with my team.

  Of course! Take as long as you need.

  Thanks for your patience.

  I have discussed it with my team and no worries, I am taking feedback of this chat and sharing it with the concerned team so that necessary changes can be made accordingly.

  Sounds good, I assume there's no ETA on when we might expect to see progression enabled again for solo/coop games?

  Yes, there is no fixed time yet

    @TheLoliAssassin Thanks for doing this.
    
    Hopefully this'll get back to someone at DICE and they'll actually address this issue...

@TheStraightRazor I know man. It sucks when you can't even buy something on good faith these days without the very real possibility of getting screwed over. All the crap modern games put me through makes me wish for the old days when games were tested and designed with care before getting pushed out. 😕
P.S. Ghost of Tsushima is amazing. Played it and platinumed it back when it came out. It's worth every penny and then some, as is the DLC.

Has anyone else noticed on Breakthrough Renewal Solo&Coop you cannot spawn a tank?
This suggests that DICE are perhaps looking for xp farming opportunities in SOLO and creating special
instances to minimise this?
If the plan is to remove xp progression completely then why make a special rule on this map? Let people kill 100's of bots if they want right?
Its speculation but I believe DICE are setting the groundwork to minimise farming opportunities.
Not just in Portal but Solo as well.
Try Breakthrough on Renewal. See what I mean.

  @GruesomeChappy Strange, I just tried and was able to spawn a tank from the Deploy Screen.

  @GruesomeChappy Update: this has changed since the update.
  You can drive the tanks now, but the starting area has changed significantly.
  It’s not the shooting gallery it once was.
  Enemies no longer congregate beneath the tower to rack up dozens of kills.
  
  I still believe this is one of probably many safeguards before RE enabling Xperia rewards

@TheStraightRazor Pretty sure they will just continue to ignore us.

  Hi there, the group of people you just tagged are Moderators of the Battlefield Discord. We don't work for EA nor do we double as a help source and we only take care of matters that happen within the Discord server. To answer why you've tagged us, It's been known the EA shut off XP to custom servers to prevent people from using Portal and private servers with AI as a XP farm. Only in classic Portal modes and in normal All Out Warfare multiplayer matches can you earn normal XP.
