Re: PATCH 5.2 UNABLE TO FETCH YOUR REPORT

@SovereignCitizn

Yeah, sorry if I came off a bit of a butthole. I only bought the game last month for the Pacific content so not being able to progress was very annoying. I only got to it now instead of launch because of how much fans of the game were told not to buy the game because they had issues of how DICE was portraying WW2. Then again in hindsight, the criticism to the first reveal trailer is more a multiplayer gameplay and I can accept customisation and having female characters. But the response to the initial criticism is what put me off despite having played BF since Bad Company 2. Anyways...

You are right, if the devs don't have anything new then there is no point in saying anything. But all they have communicated is that they are aware. At this point that is not good enough.

Considering how much the community dislikes patch 5.2 in addition to this game breaking issue, what they devs need to communicate now is that they are sorry. So far they have stayed quiet apart from telling us that they will NOT revert this patch and decide to make adjustments instead. This statement of course is not good enough for the playerbase.

But to go back to the current issue. This patch, DICE's actions, have broken the game especially for new players. If their intention to increase TTK and excessive spotting capabilities was to make it for new players (because why else would they put in this change that no one asked for) to be able to pick up the game, having this game breaking bug would drive new players away than dying to quickly when being shot in the game.

Considering how close we are too Christmas, it is all DICE's fault for breaking the game and implementing rubbish balance changes and they deserve every backlash they get, every lost customer, every goodwill lost, every confidence in their product gone. DICE really needs to think very carefully how they respond to the playerbase and what they need to do to gain even half of the goodwill they have lost. At his point, nothing short of some significant ingame compensation is needed.

DICE cannot afford to let this bug run through a whole week.

    Hey @SpectreHD see what tomorrow brings, supposedly wake Island release and hopefully a fix for this bug
  • @wizzwag
    I hope so. But somehow it feels like the 5.2. patch already included Wake Island (which just needs to be unlocked for us to access) and the new weapons which can already be tested in the practice area.

    I personally do not believe releasing content that was patched in together with 5.2. will change anything.

    I am one of the said new players, and its annoying for me that i cannot unlock mew stuff for the time being...BUT i ts ok for me cause meanwhile i get get to know the maps, mechains, and stuff woth the weapons available....AS LONG as i am asured that my progress IS saved on their servers and i get the unlocks when the bug is solved shortly. If that is not the case, ill dump the game and go for GTFO or sonething else....

  • It's actually been longer than a week for me and my PC. But, though I'm frustrated as all "get out" I'm inclined to let them do their handiwork. I've been following this thread since I filed my report and like you I'm wanting a resolution. I'm a retired old fart who spends his evening hours a couple of nights a week stumbling through the maps on BF1, 2, 3, 4 and now 5. To date, BF5 seems to be my favorite though this glitch destroyed much of my faith in the stability of the game. I'm guessing I'll be dropping back to BF4 or BF1 and/or simply run over to STEAM and play some of the COD titles... I'd prefer to stay here but it's frustrating at best and though I'm not good I do enjoy the online play. FWIW. I'll check in tomorrow I guess.

  • Eh, EA/Origin will get it worked out. I'll just wander back to BF4, BF3, BF2 BC and play some of those maps again until this all gets resolved. This retirement stuff sucks. Even though I'm no good at them I've been having too much fun playing these games, especially BFV. Now it's all about waiting and falling back to the previous versions.

    How can we unlock new BAR when "Could not fetch your report" is still here and no one is getting any tides of war progress?

    Actually, the Tides of War progress is unaffected by this issue. The BAR can be unlocked through legit gameplay.

  • Its working with mine too....i get the progress in ToW as well as the unlocked weapons, skins an CC. But thats about it. A bit unnerving...my assault and support chars are lvl9 by now, and i am still running and gunning aroubd with the startergear....☹️

    Strange, the friends from my squad don't have any problems with the Tides of War progression. So far, so good, I almost finished the upper side of the assignment on my way to the BAR.
    But the "Could not fetch your report" issue is there and it's grinding my nerves seeing I cannot unlock any weapon and not receiving Company Coins.

    P.S.: I forgot to add, I play on PC, maye the issue is present only on consoles ?

  • Still, another day- is there any timeline re: a possible patch? Anything? Anywhere?
