Battlefield 1 stuttering after anticheat update
Good evening, after the last update the game experiences constant fps drops and stuttering, especially when aiming, this did not happen before the update, I tried to play closing everything, msi afterburner and other programs in the background and it remains the same. my pc is an i5 7600 msi rx 480 gaming x 8gb gpu 16 gb ram
Weekly weapons Scrap Exchange updates
I have calculated the theoretical amout of scraps you would need if every item would appear in the weekly exchange and you could buy it that way. Amount of scraps needed by category and total: 10.000 x 17 = 170.000 2.000 x 195 = 390.000 800 x 262 = 209.600 300 x 372 = 111.600 TOTAL x 846 = 881.200 Puzzles are NOT taken into account here! Meaning the number would be higher still. But since you tend to get all pieces over time with the OP Battlepacks I excluded them from here. At least without the special rare melee weapons which are otherwise unobtainable like the Ararebo, Coupe Coupe, Arditi Dagger(still unobtainable, has never been seen in the exchange) and Barbed Wire Bat If we assume the average loot per day looks like this we roughly get 1k scraps every day 30+90+270 & 90+270+270 = 1020/day Now that we have the total amount of scraps needed and a rough estimate on the average loot based on personal experience from over 1 year of daily grinding we can calculate how many days of grinding we need to earn the necessary scraps to be able to buy every skin in the game which looks like this: 881.200/1020 = 863.922 days This accumulates to this timeframe of DAILY grinding needed to earn every skin in the game: 2 years 4 months ~2 weeks (11 days) Again, this is assuming all skins where available in the exchange which is far from the case making the situation even worse. This timeframe is unacceptable for a AAA game you paid over 100€ for at release, me included. Some free2play games involve less grinding than this just to earn some textures. I understand that there was monetary incentive behind making the game intentionally grindy (though I still find this practice to be in a AAA game unacceptable by principle) to boost Battlepack sales. But this game is almost 8 years old now and I really doubt you're making anywhere close to the amount of money compared to the release period. Meaning there is no more incentive to make this game intentionally grindy anymore. My suggestion would be to either remove the daily limit of Operation Battlepacks, increase the limit from 2 to something like 4 or 5 per day or have them drop 2 or 3 crates instead of 1 at a time. Unlike currently this is much more respectful of the players time. Money is one thing but to disrespect the players time to this extent when we know that everyones time is limited both in daily terms and total just so you get some textures is ridiculous. Due to the age of the game please reconsider the current way of earning scraps to make it more tolerable. I've come too far to give up now but most people don't have this patience. Me included (for future or other games) since this will be the last game I'll grind this much for. If the next Battlefield turns out to be this grindy I'll really think twice before buying something which doesn't respect anyones time. Thanks in advance, hope to see some changes to this system!
BF1 English language download option
Hi, I'm trying to redownload BF1 after the new anti-cheat patch, but when choosing download options the only languages available are Polish and Russian, no English. I've found this exact issue on a different thread for the sims, and the solution was to contact EA help so that they can update/change the region of the game product... https://answers.ea.com/t5/Game-Questions/TS4-Digital-Deluxe-languages/td-p/12201501/page/5 Well I did that: first I was sent a 12 year old YouTube tutorial for how to change the language in BF3, which did not help. Then they straight up admitted that they cannot help me and they "hope it will fix soon". This is very strange in the first place because I definitely downloaded and played BF1 on the same computer, in the same location, through the same EA app earlier this year. So, what do?Battlefield 1 Can't Go Online?
Hey there, I have over 500 hours in BF1, and hadn't played it in a year or so, and got the urge to play the other day. I boot it up, and lo and behold, and told I can't connect to EA Online- the main menu has a "Go Online" button, which I hit, it says connecting, and then the main menu refreshes, still not connected. Interestingly, I am able to play all the other Battlefield games without issue- 3, 4, and V all boot up just fine, connect to EA Online, and let me play. Help! I've done literally everything I can think of trying to fix this; here's a list: Rebooted PC Ran EA app as admin Ran BF1 as admin Made sure BF1 isn't being blocked by Windows Defender Made sure file directory isn't being blocked by controlled folder access Reinstalled game Reinstalled EA app Cleared EA app cache Verified game files Reset Windows network settings Flushed DNS Changed DNS Forwarded relevant BF1 ports Confirmed I don't have an account ban Honestly I suspect I'm even forgetting some other things I've tried, but nothing has helped. I was able to chat with EA support twice, and they were not helpful, and now I see they've marked my cases as "Fixed" while obviously that isn't the case, despite assuring me that I'd be hearing back from them with escalated help. What's even more upsetting is now it seems the chat option I used in the first place to open the cases is gone? Do I just have no recourse here? That seems insane, but then again, as far as I can tell, EA no longer has actual support? Any ideas for things that might fix this and let me play BF1 again? Help! Thanks!
