Summarize your bug Camera bug after dying in a XFAD - 4 DRAUGR
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Fly XFAD - 4 DRAUGR in the game you can go in the solo conquest fly for a minute in the sky then die and in 90% of cases the bug will appear
What happens when the bug occurs? you lose the ability to use the camera as it goes under the map every time you use the vehicle
What should be happening instead? the camera should give the corresponding view to your position in the vehicle (driver view, gunner view, etc )
this bug happens around the XFAD - 4 DRAUGR. Every time you die by crashing into anything with XFAD you won't be able to use vehicles for the remainder of the round as your camera will be put under ground every time you spawn or enter the vehicle rendering them useless to you.
I'd recommend using Portal rather than solo/coop as this issue does not occur there to the best of my knowledge. If it is any easier for you, you're welcome to use one of my playlists - absbwj (Conquest Large) or abry3j (Conquest Small).

Just reinstalled Battlefield 2042 after getting a hardware update to run it, and I've run into this issue.
It is also true that on Solo/Co-op, (the only reason I purchased this title), the elevators and other elements, (for instance in one mission where there's an F-35 on display that rotates, or in another where there are machines that move around), you can see that there is a constant hiccup/jitter to them. The movements are skip every second or so. Getting into an elevator, you can see that your camera lags behind it in the same skipping manner until you reach the destination.
This is a major problem.
If you play on portal, let's say standard settings, do you still earn XP, and can you still unlock things?- ElliotLH2 years agoHero+@Jan_Atreides To answer your question at the end: sort of. So long as you make minimal changes (I just select the maps I want and PVP AI so I have something to shoot at), you can still unlock things. Player and Mastery XP will be capped, though.

Firstly thank you so much for your help and work here. Unfortunately I am not sure I see the problem being fixed, myself, as it seems the problem is tied to an intentional choice which probably saves the developers good money in server hosting, where Solo/Co-op simply gets a lower priority of bandwidth. The older I get, the less interested in highly competitive, sweaty PvP encounters, and I enjoy a good mid-difficulty AI match especially with my friends/family I play with. I know I'm not alone in this either, so if it's eventually fixed, that'd certainly be great, too.
Can I ask, how is the XP capped in Portal matches? Is it daily? Weekly, perhaps? I find it very unfortunate too that if you "raise" the difficulty of the AI from default to intermediate, it restricts XP. That seems silly, as you're making it more, not less, difficult.
Also has there still never been an option to shuffle random maps on the playlist?
