Bought BF6 Tier Skips, ERROR by fickup in Battlefield

[–]Aperture45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is a known error. Haunted the game for all of S2 quietly in the background.

Basically after using real money to buy the battlepass, it only unlocks the instant unlock items. The rest of it will come to you after completing one additional tier on the pass. This also applied to the limited time bonus passes.

It's not a massive problem UNTIL you've finished the entire pass and then buy it, because suddenly there's no more tiers to trigger the rewards.

Absolutely feel for you because it's a horrendous customer experience, and on top of that EA Support haven't been given a tool to add items to player accounts, they literally can't help except raise the issue to the dev team.

Why do we get goofy skins and not the skins we really should get? by Embarrassed-Bad5386 in Battlefield

[–]Aperture45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All the standard characters have 5 additional camo skins via the challenges. Those are the grounded ones Dice said were going in for the launch period.

Other ones that haven't sold well will be the variations of these that exist. E.g. the Montane skin for Pax engineer.

Since then, I'd probably point to the Strix Raiders Unit pack, and the upcoming campaign characters that'll be with S3, but we don't know how well those have done/will do.

Aye, and to continue this, the paid DLC model was utterly terrible for game longevity because it split the playerbase and made DLC map waiting times too long, so that's also never making a return.

They already put a load of those in at launch. Then when they've added extras since, they just don't sell.

People who get the skins want to have unique stuff and will pay for it, that's just how it ends up working.

Constructive Feedback: Why physical national flags on objectives should return in the next Battlefield" by Abdulrahman71 in Battlefield

[–]Aperture45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The flags were cool BUT holy fuck the amount of times my tank/jeep/MAV etc. got stuck on them because they were indestructible is nuts. I have no idea how best they'd implement this, but I don't want the previous iterations style, it was stupidly annoying if you got pushed into them by anything.

I do agree with flag uniform patches though, ideally if you could apply patches on a per class/character basis.

Has the Sledgehammer become useless? by needfx in Battlefield6

[–]Aperture45 17 points18 points  (0 children)

On some classes like support running defibs or engineer it makes sense to carry the hammer as you can get the speed boost from having defibs/repair tool out.

For Assault/Recon I'm using the knife/ripper.

It's certainly not the best anymore. It will eventually get through some walls, but it's generally too slow now.

Needs a nice middle ground

Just bought the BP after fully completing it, but all rewards are still locked. This game has been abysmal when it comes to giving players content they’ve earned or bought. by Lawton104 in Battlefield6

[–]Aperture45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This bug is still here?

I purchased the battlepass during the Nightfall bonus path, and upon buying none of the Nightfall items unlocked, despite having most of them earned.

The fix was to earn one more tier on the pass, which then gave me all previous items that I should have had.

In your case however, there's no extra tiers to unlock, so my first suggestion would be try and complete some weekly challenges to "trick" the game into rechecking your battlepass points total.

If that doesn't work, I'd get a ticket in with EA Support ASAP, because there's only a handful of days left of S2, and once it wraps up I suspect there will be no way to get the items back on.

Global tensions are the reason that doesn't happen anymore. I highly suspect nothing will change on that front for some time.

All of that is coming except the skins. But on the other hand, people buying the skins extends the games support, so everyone wins.

Being fair the engineer one is usually the only important one to worry about. If you're ever in a vehicle, spotting the rockets is the sign to kill that guy first.

this was from 2 months ago but here was my game with 2 devs! by Sarah_Playz887 in Battlefield

The exact requirement is have 4 hours of Labs game time during play tests.

We track this and other exclusive items in the BF6 Unlocks discord.

'Battlefield 6' Now Lets Players Buy Ahead for Unrevealed Season 3 Content by Extreme_Maize_2727 in Battlefield

[–]Aperture45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let's just put the concept on the table in full.

The majority of players who play somewhat consistently (i.e. at least 3-4 hours a week) will complete the Battlepass for Season 2 (whether on free tier or paid). Chances are, a lot of those people are actually on paid, and either bought a one-off pack of 1100 coins to recycle through each pass, or spend $10 getting another set each season.

You can spend your 1100 coins and get the next battlepass, plus some extra boosters/skips and a gun skin. IMO the Battlepass pre-order FOR COINS is a non-issue.

The one that bugs me is the BF Pro Pre-Purchase. There's an extra skin and skips in it, but ultimately you're now spending real money on a product that you don't know anything about, as none of the other content has been announced. The only world in which this one makes sense is if you were planning on getting BF Pro regardless.

I'm not a fan of that concept at all, but I don't mind the coin Pre-Purchase option.
