@Maxthewicked100As stupid as this sounds, we need to back off from them, meaning not to bombard their twitter with comments, and don't post links to their accounts either.
Back when this whole post started and was gaining traction, some people mentioned the devs and community manager's twitter handles, and said to start commenting until they fix our issue.
Unfortunately, most of those people all got banned, and one of the managers came on here and threatened our thread to be taken down, if we kept revealing any "personal" info on the devs.
So we basically need to just sit here and wait till someone at DICE randomly does something about the Solo/Coop issue. I know it sucks, but I really wouldn't want to risk this thread...
—Battlefront 2015, we waited for a real PvE mode. After almost a year, we got skirmish, a 12 v 12 walker assault mode on only the vanilla maps with zero progression and customization. The other modes, progression, and DLC maps never got added to skirmish, making the PvE mode extremely limited and extremely incomplete.
—Battlefront 2, we waited ALMOST 2 EFFING YEARS for an actual PvE mode, instant action, which again, only had supremacy mode with limited planets and vehicles. Half the vehicles on the game cannot be accessed in PvE and bespin and crait are unavailable as well, there is 0 progression and 90% of modes are unavailable. Again, another incomplete mode and limited mode.
Fun fact: there is not a single PvE mode in battlefront 2 that allows the player to fly a startfighter and be a foot-soldier in the same match. How pathetic is that.
So you see, waiting is pointless, take it from someone who waited for these slimy insects for 7 years.
They won’t do anything, and they don’t care; they have 0, zip, zilch, interest in game preservation.
- 3 years ago@FeatherTickles they already have the money and fixing the PvE won't bring more money. If they could sell the update $30 they would release it in 1 day lol
- 3 years ago
It's hopeless! And indeed, they won't uncap the solo progression because they can't make money with it. The only reason I played this game longer then it already should was because I wanted that platinum trophy (PS5). I only need the "Wheeled warrior" (T1 Vehicle master) but this is undoable in the current state as they cut the amount of Vehciles in half... Is there still any way to get this? I saw almost everything is nerfed. Don't know if a Soflam or a recon drone or prox sensors still work from a passenger seat in a LATV4? Any tips to achieve this without 100's of hours of playtime with only 1 or 2 kills in a round? I still need around 850 MC5 Bolte kills/assists or 900 LATV4 kills/assists

At this point idgaf anymore about this game or the dev or the community, Its been months and they've shown that they've seen our requests, Buy still choose to ignore us as a Community, This is the new DICE, and this is why this game continues to and will fail, I genuinely hope and want this franchise to die now, They've showed us that they have no passion nor any commitment to making a true Battlefield Game, and that their priority is on milking the playerbase for all of the money they can get, Afterall, The last battlefield game to come out was BFV and obviously their pockets are getting real empty, They may act and show that they care, But you can really tell that they don't, If they truly cared about this community they wouldn't have forced a game out in the state it was released, they wouldn't have advertised the game as being for everyone by allowing full progression in all modes, They would've kept battlefield how it was, Instead of making all these idiotic changes to try and make it stand out from the average game
Back when BF2042 was announced, and during the BETA, I saw so much potential, I thought that for once, Battlefield could literally take Call of Duty on in a fight and win since CODs last two games were a let down, But here we are, Nearly a year into its release and what have we got to show for it? A minor Season 1 update which added a couple of things? When originally we had hundreds of new items when we were paying Premium for Battlefield, and a completely dead community who they still choose to ignore
Honestly I wish there was positive things I could say, Honestly, I bought this game with so much hope that it'd be good, and that I'd play it a lot, The last time I opened this game was to check out the items for season 1, before that, Christmas, I honestly wish I got a refund as soon as i saw how horrendously bad this game was, but instead I decided to have hope that some of the developers were somewhat competent enough to fully get this game on track
This game is a complete disgrace to the franchise, and if this is what the next BF title will follow then I truly hope this franchise dies, Because there is no point in ruining the success of its predecessors.
Probably gonna be banned so peace out, Hope y'all have a good year, goodluck in the future, and if I do get banned, make sure its a permanent one cause I don't plan on coming back if this is how your going to treat your community

Agree...they completely screwed the solo/coop community over. They have our money and completely dgaf about us or the franchise they have destroyed.
- FeatherTickles3 years agoNew Vanguard@phoremat EA’s twitter mocked people who like single player games, so that should tell you where these pathetic 🤡s stand.
- 3 years ago@FeatherTickles wait did they really? This game & EA are just disappointment after disappointment

Guess who got temp banned for calling out comm managers for not doing their job? This guy. Seriously its pathetic that we can't even call them out on not listening to us. We've tried to be nice for 9 whole bloody months.
- 3 years agoMaybe there is another way to contact EA to get an answer idk? maybe we should show this thread to some gaming journalists, I am out of ideas on how to be heard.
- TTZ_Dipsy3 years agoLegend
It was meant to be a joke about your sweety not being willing to play games with you but it completely backfired for being tone deaf after their whole "people don't like single player games" fiasco. They got roasted by everyone, nothing more can really be said.
It's one of the site rules not to call out/spam pings to EA employees so of course there'd be a temp ban/mute after repeated warning - CM's have alreadys aid this type of feedback has been passed on and if they have any new information to share, they'd do it on these forums and probably Twitter.
A bunch of media outlets have already brought these forums up in their posts but feel free to contact them if you wish; I'm sure their inboxes are filled to the brim - DominickB33 years agoSeasoned Ace@TTZ_Dipsy I get not bombarding them with messages on any social media including this. They are people and nobody deserves to be harassed just because of the job they have.
What I don't understand, is how after all this time we still haven't heard anything more than "we are still discussing things." All we really want is some straight up answer. "This is how xp will be moving forward" or "AoW Solo/Co-op is functioning the way we intended and will not be adjusted." Either tell us that or tell us "we know you are concerned about solo/ co-op, and we hear you. We are working on adjusting the progression in the mode."
Right now it feels like they are just afraid to tell us straight up they aren't changing anything for fear of losing even more players.
I feel like I was robbed of my money for this game. I bought it after playing the trial in which I got full xp for solo/co-op for that first day, convinced a couple friends to buy it as well for that. Then I leave for a trip, get back to find out that they took away the very thing that got me to buy the game and I couldn't get a refund because I had already played it too much. - 3 years ago
'CM's have already said this type of feedback has been passed on' Then explain to me that WHY they refuse to tell us anything past that. That's not enough. We're sitting on 9 months of no progression, we're already half way through a season we cannot progress and are sitting on a battle pass we got with our pre-order and now we're about to get another update AND THEY'RE STILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGING IT WHATSOEVER.
If I didn't know any better, they're deliberately sweeping us under the rug with how poorly they're handling this. They KNOW what they did.

@TTZ_DipsyStill no mention of Solo/Coop or Portal progression against AI in patch 1.1.0 lmao
- 3 years ago@Tman26242 Yeah I saw the patch and was reading through the updates notes hoping to see something... nope.

- DominickB33 years agoSeasoned Ace
I think they have made their choices very obvious at this point. There was AI Filled games in featured portal a few weeks ago, but since then there hasn't been. The XP in AoW Co-op/solo is still a joke.
I think at this point by not saying anything, they have made it loud and clear they just don't care about those of us who want progression against the AI.
It's not like we are asking to be able to change the rules to create an XP farming system or anything like that. We just want to play the game with default rules but with AI included and still have the same XP, Ribbon, and Progression as those who are playing PvP (Which at this point includes a ton of bots so the "against bots would be too easy to gain xp" argument goes out the window).
- RMEChief3 years agoLegend
It really makes no sense at this point why they don't allow it. If anything just give less XP against bots, but that's it. Who cares if someone gets T1 on the TukTuk, there is no way in game to see others medals any way outside of their awesome player card.
- Chief2GFD3 years agoSeasoned Ace
Is it just me or does it seem as though the skill level for the AI is better? Crazy that the AI seem better than at launch, yet they are still not giving us full progression, like the game was advertised. Thanks EA/Dice for screwing over the community.
- twausd3 years agoSeasoned Vanguard
DICE, really? Still you're walking the liars way and slap the gloves of silence right into the face of your customers. I don't believe that and this behavior disappoints me deeply. What are we talking about? Skins and Badges! Back then you had no issues to give away the Phantom Bow for free in 4 or to change the unlock challenge of the Sturmgeschütz in 5. Did I complain because I had annoying rounds to get them? No. As someone who believes that everybody should be able to get all content because we've all paid the same for it I was happy for them. Seems you've decided that just the "Gods of the BF", who maybe are using questionable stuff to have this advantage, should have all and average Players should be happy that they are allowed to pay the same money. What would you do if you have bought a 4K TV and at home you realize that you only have this resolution while watching News but not for Movies? Surely you would accept it and tell the manufacturer how happy you are about it because News are more important than Movies, lol. Probably I'm too old for all this BS and should consider to step away from this franchise after around 10.000hours of playtime since 3. In the end I'm not able to reach my minimum goal which is "Colonel100" status even though I'm willing to spend 2,5+k hours on the by far most annoying BF ever because the S999 is insane and I thought 500 in 5 was already crazy, how naive I was. Furthermore as a man of principles I don't accept or tolerate lies. No, you don't have to care. You just lose a maybe to loyal customer who always tried to convince his friends to buy your game. Someone who always defends you in discussions, someone who always tries to keep it fair and objective. A customer who don't have to ask his parents for money and so I wouldn't have any issue to pay 200,-EUR for an amazing game with great support but ja, you are light years away from this point. For me quality is always more important than quantity but here I can't see neither the one nor the other. Why I need lets say 10 bad designed maps instead of 3 which are fun to play? Why I need hundreds of weapons when I mostly play one in the end? Why people are still playing 3?,4,1,5 without new content? Could it be that the fun is the main reason? Anyhow, enough words wasted so I can waste my time with trying to find a running server or losing my progress over and over again. Yes, I'm still losing progress and a few days ago EVERYTHING was set back to zero on the current "mastery level" which means I've lost at least 50hours of (annoying) MP-Playtime and surely more than less. One detailed example, I had 127 kills and assists on level 17 with the Condor. Once the issue appears I was back on 0 for level 17 and that for all characters, vehicles, weapons and equipment. Btw, if something is OP than surely now Rao and the new attack helis and Rao was before your stupid change one of the easiest Specialists to T1. Why are still 16/32 Players needed to start the round when back then 2-4 were enough? Many questions, no answers because you don't care and don't listen so Farewell and Goodbye beloved franchise. RIP BF, I'll miss you badly.

If anything, they should bring back Zombie mode with full XP for a few hours every week.
- 3 years ago
Well boys, here's to the August update I guess...
For now, basically the only way you can play the full experience, is to go into Portal and make your own game with the 128 maps, and restart the map when you wanna switch teams. Still kinda sucks though, because bots can't join your squad, and you can't earn anything, a side from XP.
But at this point, I almost have the weapons maxed anyways, from the regular AOW Solo/Coop, so whatever. I just wanna be able to earn weekly and battlepass challenges. It really is a snail's pace once you hit rank 50 in the battlepass...
I still can't believe that this is the most upvoted thread (I think) on the whole forum board, and none of the devs or community managers gave a proper response, yet...
- 3 years ago
Does this mean that you can create your own map and wait for someone to join? Because bots cannot join?
Above from that, that way you can increasy the tier of the weps, vehicules and such?
