[Battlefield 1] Ongoing Server Attacks – Mass Kicks, Random Disconnects

Platform: PC

Hello DICE / EA Team, I am writing this post to bring attention to a serious and ongoing issue affecting the Battlefield 1 servers. Over the past few days, it appears that the game servers are under some form of network attack or are experiencing severe stability problems that are ruining the gameplay experience for the community. Here are the specific issues we are encountering:

  1. Server-Wide Kicks (Mass Disconnections): In the middle of a match, the server will suddenly kick all players at once. It doesn’t show a typical "Ping Lock" or "Connection Lost" error; instead, everyone is sent back to the main menu simultaneously. This suggests the server instance is crashing or being forcibly disrupted.
  2. 2. Unexplained Disconnects: Players are experiencing random "You have lost connection to the session" errors, even with stable internet connections and low ping. This happens regardless of the server region or player count.
  3. 3. Missing Loadouts & Weapon Progress: This is the most concerning issue. Upon reconnecting after these server disruptions, some players have reported that their soldier loadouts have been reset. In worse cases, progress on weapon unlocks, attachments, or even DLC weapons appear to be temporarily "locked" or missing from the inventory, as if the server failed to save the post-match progress correctly due to the abrupt disconnection.
  4. Community Impact: These attacks/instabilities are making the game nearly unplayable. You cannot finish a full Operation or Conquest match. Furthermore, the issue with disappearing items is causing major anxiety within the community—players are afraid of losing progress on weapons they spent hours unlocking. 
  5.  Request: Could the team please look into the server logs for the affected regions? We need stability improvements and protection for the server infrastructure. Additionally, if items are lost, is there a way to restore them, or will progress need to be re-grinded? Thank you for your hard work. Battlefield 1 is a classic, and we just want to enjoy it peacefully.
