Prestige Battle Pass Path Cannot Be Activated After Purchasing BF Pro

Here’s what happened, I was at 17/22 levels on the 4th main Battle Pass path. I purchased BF Pro, expecting tier skips to unlock all remaining levels on the main paths and also unlock the Prestige path.

 

After the purchase, all main paths were completed automatically, but the Prestige path did not unlock. Even the instant unlocks from BF Pro did not apply to the Prestige path.

 

Now I cannot activate the Prestige path at all. After matches, the game shows “No active path” and I do not receive any Battle Pass XP, because the game thinks no path is active. When I press F to activate the Prestige path, the activation sound plays, but nothing happens.

 

I would really appreciate it if the developers could investigate and fix this issue, because currently I am completely unable to progress on the Prestige path.

 

Should tier skips from BF Pro even apply to the Prestige path, or is it intended that they do not affect it? How can I now get the missing Prestige path content and rewards?

    Hey, folks

    Just a quick one on this. The team is looking into it, but it states in the store, "Tier Skip does not count towards the Prestige Path completion."


    We have also given the team feedback on this one, and we will be passing along the feedback from y'all as well.

    Thanks

    So when you battle pass progression says '105 / 110 complete' and you go to the store and there's 'Battlepass skip 5 tiers' presented to you on sale on the last day with one click purchase available, its obviously a dark design pattern to bury at the bottom of the description 'does not apply to prestige tier' when i don't even know/care what the names of the tiers are. 

    Fooled me once, shame on me. Its an EA product I should have known to look at the minute detail of everything as a scam would exist somewhere.

    I am happy to report that the 5 tier skips were carried forward to season 3 and the recruit tier was fully unlocked this morning. At least the skip didn't disappear into the ether.  

    Issue is closed, caveat emptor.

    elthionel​ Glad to hear those did carry over. And yes, it is an immensely frustrating situation, and the feedback has ven been given by us here as well as the players.

  • Im the same. I purchased some last minute Tier skips for prestige than realized the small print. However my BF coins have disappeared as if the transaction was completed :/
