[BFComms] Season 5 Siege of Vegas Known Issues and Status Roundup - October 16 Today, we wanted to follow up on our recent update before we kick off the weekend. Here's what we're currently investigating and tracking across the most recent update. - Progression and XP Earn Rates: Following the launch of Season 5, an unintended backend configuration issue throttled earn rates across core modes and weapon mastery progression. We have since reverted these settings on October 15, and have confirmed that earn rates have returned to normal. - White Screen in Campaign: We have deployed a fix resolving an issue that prevented PlayStation 5 Pro players from progressing beyond the opening cutscene in the Battlefield 6 Campaign. You can now jump into the mission as intended. - Drag and Revive: We are seeing reports where the revive prompt fails to appear or activate over downed squadmates in Battle Royale modes. Our team is actively investigating the root cause of this issue. - Vehicle Health Regeneration: We are looking into reports that passive vehicle health regeneration is taking longer than the intended amount after disengaging from combat. Our team is reviewing this issue. - Phantom Edition GOTY Skin: Players who own the Phantom Edition were intended to receive the new Legendary soldier skin from the Game of the Year (GOTY) Edition without purchasing an upgrade. We have rolled out an in-game inbox message that will automatically grant this skin directly to qualifying accounts. The team is actively pushing forward on these fixes as well as the updates we mentioned earlier this week. This list is not comprehensive, so please continue to report bugs on the EA forums and share your feedback across our social channels. Have a great weekend and thank you for your patience. //The Battlefield Team

[BFComms] Progression & XP Update Following the launch of Season 5, backend configuration changes resulted in an unintended issue affecting XP earn rates across modes and hardware progression (such as weapons). These backend changes have now been reverted, and our team is actively monitoring telemetry to ensure earn rates return to intended levels across all experiences. Thank you for your patience and reports while we continue to track this.

Matchmaking Update – October 9 Following our backend update on September 30, we want to check in, address some of the friction you experienced over the past week, and share what we’re doing to make your match-to-match experience smoother. TL;DR - Healthier Matches: Matchmaking stability has returned to normal across all platforms and playlists. - Staying Together: More of you are successfully rolling into the next round with your squads and friendly rivals. - Fewer Bot Lobbies: We deployed a backend timer adjustment today that gives real players more time to fill lobbies before AI backfill kicks in. Why We Made the Change Our core goal has been to keep more players together from one match to the next, which means great lobbies stay together. When you find a squad that clicks or an opposing team that gives you a hard-fought match, you shouldn’t have to get completely reshuffled every single round. On September 30, we introduced backend improvements aimed at keeping as many players together as possible from match to match, while still respecting your individual playlist and map preferences. What Happened & What We Heard While the system succeeded in keeping more groups together across rounds, we know it also introduced frustrating side effects: - An unexpected surge in bot-filled matches. - Lobbies stalling out or taking too long to populate. Jumping into a match only to find half the server populated by AI isn't the experience any of us want. Over the past several days, our team rolled out hotfixes and live tweaks to stabilize queue performance, and metrics have steadily returned to healthy baselines. Today’s Fix: Smarter Countdown Timers To resolve the bot backfill issue without sacrificing queue speed, we rolled out an additional backend update today: - Extended Pre-Round Countdown for Conquest and Escalation: Once a lobby hits the minimum player threshold to start, the countdown timer now gives a brief additional window for incoming players to filter in. - What This Means for You: Rounds will start with fuller, real-player lobbies, reducing the chance that AI bots fill empty slots before the match kicks off. All of this comes with virtually no noticeable increase to your overall queue times. Looking Ahead Matchmaking remains an ongoing balance between match quality, lobby continuity, and quick queue times. We are continuing to monitor server health, fill rates, and—most importantly—your feedback as these adjustments settle in. Jump in, play a few rounds, and let us know how your matches feel. Thank you for sticking with us, sharing your clips and reports, and helping us build a better game every day.

Additional Matchmaking Backend Changes We have now made additional changes to the matchmaking update we performed last week. This should improve the situation where players experienced an excess of bots in their lobbies when enough players are queuing for matches. Please keep in mind that limiting your matchmaking searches to only a few maps and modes might prevent you from experiencing persistent lobbies if your choices are too limited. We'll keep you posted as we make progress. Thanks for your feedback after the changes, it's been very helpful!
