Please bring back spectator mode!
Hello,
First, I would like to introduce myself. I am from the Philippines, and we have a community for Battlefield players. We've been hosting some private/clan tournaments recently, and we would like to go public and host another tournament to gather more active players. We have figured out how to host private portals/maps, but there is just some feature that is very important for us, and that is spectator mode.
We have some streamer/shout caster friends that would like to host the tournament live, but the spectator mode has been missing since Battlefield 2042. We've been doing livestreams for our tournament, but only from a player POV, but this time we would like to have this spectator mode so that viewers from different POVs can enjoy the stream and see a different perspective.
Our small community and other communities will surely appreciate this update. Thank you!
Hi there,
I'm happy to let you know that custom Lobbies and Spectator Mode are arriving with Season 4 Phase 2: Top Gun on August 18 through Battlefield Labs in Live.
Building on the foundations of Portal, Custom Lobbies will give hosts more direct control when setting up and running a match. Hosts will be able to assign players to specific teams, adjust select match settings, and organize private sessions or community tournaments, with Spectator Mode providing ways to follow the action.
Initial support will include Battle Royale Quads and Conquest, with additional modes planned as the feature expands. More information on these features will be shared in a future article before the Top Gun update launches.
