150 Days of Blood and Sand Canceled! Thank you :-)

HI All,

Edit 2:  Well we could have done another 82 days of Blood and Sand but instead EA has now fixed the rotation and we get a new rotation every 15 days,  Hooray and thank you EA.

Enjoy the new Beginning of the End Operation everyone.  I know I will.  

Edit: From time to time, I hope to keep updating the thread title with how many days are left.  Hoping to bring some customer service focus to this (Helles, sp?  ) limbo all of us loyal BF1 players are living through.

Well we've got a new forum called Answers Headquarters.  So is it possible we will get an answer to being stuck on Blood and Sand for 150 days?

Note its more like 220 days or something as I remember playing Blood and Sand all the way back in December 2020 and its been that or nothing ever since and then they finally set it at a record 150 days in a row!.  If someone has an exact count of total Blood and Sand days, let me know.  I'm on PS4, US West.  Right now people are so sick of Gallipoli and Oil of Empires there are often non of these operations running at all.  And when I do find a game its almost always in the EU and every now and then in US East.  So I've gotten pretty good at playing in high ping (180ms)  and just capping objectives to get the points for Ops packs.

So does anyone know when this will be fixed or if it will ever be fixed?  Is someone actually working on the problem?  What's so complicated about setting a new Ops rotation?

  • Hey folks,
     
    As you may have noticed, we've had the same Operation Campaign of Blood and Sand live for quite a while now. This was because an issue prevented us from rotating these experiences.
     
    Good news! That's now fixed, and we can rotate the Operation Campaign experiences again. Starting this week, you'll be able to play Beginning of the End, which we've already pushed live. We hope you'll enjoy.
     


    Thank you for sticking with us while we've worked on restoring the rotations. And do please let us know if you see any further issues.

    Yes it's so depressing logging in to see the Operations Campaign still on the same one, and I haven't seen an open server in sometimes. Guess their too busy with BF6, and the new "mobile game" to be bothered. There's lots of new players from next gen consoles and they get greeted by this silliness. Such a shame!


    Yes, I've been looking and not been able to find any active Blood and Sand game for about a week now.  People are just tired of Blood and Sand.  Its hard for me to believe it is a difficult programming job to fix the rotation.  EA has fixed some bugs recently so I'm hoping they'll stay on it and fix the rotation.  


    Tried myself the other night on my Xbox and had a similar experience. Matchmaking kept putting me in empty servers. Couldn't see any in the browser either. 


    Tried again this morning and still no active blood and sand servers anywhere.  PS4

    Man, I feel so bad for you guys that play Ops.

    I can't believe DICE hasn't fixed this yet. Should be a simple fix you'd think.
