Where to start..

ive spent months contributing to the forum to help provide detail on bugs and issues.

literally all of them have not been addressed as far as I can see.

Seems like we have more issues since the last update.

Loadouts are no being remembered again!

skylines flickering still!

terrain not rendering on various maps

ADS scope bugs still exist and it’s not confined to the GOL.

soldier looks through rifle instead of scope when ADS - I reported this before with NO response.

SERVER CRASHES!!! Reported numerous times with nothing done. It’ll kick random people from the server back to game’s homescreen.

But now, it’s hard crashing the game completely!

new map thumbnail image is not displaying on portal builder site. On both mobile and PC!

mulitple terrain issues on various maps - you can see soldiers through them. Devs need to actually employ someone to play the game and they will find them - just a thought!

graphic issue on the loadout screen that shows you your weapons on the attaché case - eg some items don’t render.

text on text happening on various screen - eg, end of round screen.

spearhead theme tune is heard playing at the start of other maps!

general hit registration feels off since update

delay in weapon firing after pulling trigger.

delay in hit markers, hit sounds and bullets reaching target after pulling trigger.

Bushes and vegetation “push” your soldier away from them by about 2m when you’re laying prone next to them or in them.

general rag doll issues - dead soldiers stuck in the air, balancing on their head in a seated position after dying etc

scope glare inconsistencies. Sometimes you have glint, sometimes you don’t. Also getting glint off handguns that have no scope attached!! Reported before but as usual, nothing done or acknowledged.

X6 scope on 2042 weapons still looks awful after dice decided to screw it up by putting the thick Red Cross in the middle of the crosshairs!!!

why can’t we have customisable reticles?

a slider for turning scope glint on/off?

AI synced modifier box in the portal builder is still ticking itself after saving changes!! Reported before, nothing done about it!

Soldiers are not rendering after end of rounds on core servers - you literally get a soldiers hair floating on the screen. Or their weapon. Or their gloves!!

coins not being awarded. This has now made me give up with tier unlocks. Thanks.

Wrong solider being selected/ shown on the game Home Screen and when entering a battle.

it’ll literally give you a random soldier. This happens as well as the Loadouts not being remembered.

scope magnification not being remembered when you switch back to it after using another weapon. Eg - ghost hybrid scope.

i will add to this thread because I know there are more issues that I will remember.

In short, I’m getting tired of committing time to this forum to try and help with informing about problems.

nothing is ever done.

patch notes never mention fixes.

so it seems to me that the devs just want ri punt out new content to attract people back while also not doing a single thing to address fundamental issues that are reported again and again.

if that’s how they want to operate, fine. But I’ll tell you now that this is the quickest way to get people to walk away from your game.

i for one am slowly losing interest in playing it.

and the new content isn’t even that great.

new map is meh.

railgun is gimmicky and pretty much pointless.

wveyone he unlocked it but hardly anyone uses it. Which proves that no one is interested in it.

new specialist is meh.

don’t mean to sound negative but this game is grating abit now and a lot of it stems from lack of communication on the forum and lack of dev interest in fixing issues.

    @EA_Rtas Hi mate,
    Nice to hear my thread is being read.
    To clarify.. someone else noticed a terrain bug on spearhead.
    I noticed graphic glitches on Valpariso last night which I mentioned in this thread.
    But note that there are a variety of terrain issues on a fair few maps.
    El Alemein has a fair few on the ridge of the rocky hill in the middle and also on the ridge that had the chair and wine bottles.
    From a distance, you can see right through the rocks on the top of the ridges. In some cases you can’t even see the rocks at all, but you can see the soldiers hiding behind them!

    Rendering issue?
    Or draw distance, if that’s correct?

    Other maps have issues too.
    Discarded has areas on the grassy area where you can see through/ under rocks because the rocks aren’t sitting in the ground properly.

    As I said, the devs would do well to actually have someone play the game for a good few hours a day and they would find these things themselves!

    Another thing I’ve just noticed..

    ive just logged on.

    im looking at the 1942 faction grenades.

    the little demo video for the M18 smoke grenade is wrong.

    it seems to show a 2042 smoke grenade launcher in the demo video?!

    The collision mechanics for the 1942 jeeps is really bad and needs looking at.

    Get in one and drive it through some barbed wire fences and see.

    @creepnpeep This bug has been around for many months now, with numbers stacked on top of each other.

    Considering the last update notes, I will no longer be helping to identify issues and bugs.

    Clearly the EA “community managers” and the devs have no interest in listening or addressing the more fundamental issues.

    Not wasting my time anymore.

    All the best in trying to get this game in shape.

    Someone else actually found the bug about being pushed out of bushes while prone. Tbh, I'm surprised we even have to report this bug at all and that it's been in this game this long. Has EA robbed all of the money that should be going to DICE over the years or what?

    @SH286-LX268 Mate, there’s so many bugs and glitches that I’ve lost count and lost interest in trying to help the devs identify and sort them.
    I’ve tried god knows how many times to help with bugs. It all falls on deaf ears and I never get a response.
    It’s comical.
    Latest bug since the recent update is that the portal builder site and rules editor are broken. Can’t change settings on servers and can’t save changes.
    Try to run any of my servers and I get validation errors.
    Reported multiple times.
    Nothing done and no response.
    Instead, I get a warning for spam.
    And still not response to the bug.

    If this isn’t sorted soon, I’ll simply stop playing the game, along with my followers that only play my servers.
    Absolute joke.
