Well I know it works. I personally moved you to the correct channel and it did move you to the correct team. I think you might be making it more difficult them if really is. Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

You have to join the correct channel. There is a BF4 Teamspeak Sync (standby) channel that you need to join. It will then swap you automatically to your team. This is a necessary feature when we can have over 20 players in the game. It will not pull you from any other channels. I hope this helps you out.

noon Saturday I should be available.

Last few nights have been rough with almost everyone having high pings. Support ticket was submitted. Around midnight the pings finally got back down to normal. I do not believe it is only our server however. There have been a growing number of complaints in the battlelog forums with server issues. Some players can not log in and some can not even find servers. Tune in tomorrow to see what happens. @midnight last night, server was fine finally. @today no idea. Using Chrome or IE11, pings do not show in battlelog. This is definitly an EA issue.

I have heard a lot of hackusations but tonight was the funniest. Drak was accused of using EXPLOSIVE sniper rounds tonight. Now we know how he got to #1 with that rifle! LOL Vote for ban? ROFL

Pretty much everything I have said. There is a few spots that suggests why. Still no news and it is March. Good news is, Hardline has their patch today!Star Wars Battleffront was updated last week. So DICE LA should be free to work on next project what ever that will be. CTE is completely dead. The reddit is even getting slow these days. The 2 Night maps have been done for months but no new patch to test. PLEASE 2143!!!

Join us on TeamSpeak. That is how we play. All squad based.

This is my thoughts... First DICE gave us the BJ-2 knife. This is the knife that was from BF2142 Next the end game DLC which gave us the prototype hover tanks, the rail gun, plus on some maps we can see titan ships being built, walkers being built all from 2142. Look around some of the maps and you will see 2142 on crates. My guess is post Bf4 to Pre2142 time frame.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CcJZ5aLW4AAnYQG.jpg BATTLEFIELD 5 |Posted 2 hours ago Battlefield 5 shows up on German retailer site, reportedly set in World War 1 By Ben Barrett Well, this is a turn up. Battlefield 5 has been spotted on German online retailer World of Games, listed for release in October. Most notable is the single line of description that reads "Mehrspieler Taktik Shooter im 1. Weltkrieg" - in English, a World War 1 tactical shooter. While generally release dates listed in this manner are inaccurate estimations made by the company itself, details rarely are, and may indicate an upcoming announcement. http://i.imgur.com/D8nQQe8.png You can see the listing here while it lasts, and larger versions of the images over on NeoGAF, as well as the original finding on Twitter. While another DICE-made entry in the Battlefield series has been assumed to be on the way, this is the first we've seen of it outside that. The return to the past has been much requested, though the choice of World War 1 is odd for various reasons - not only is WW2 more common, but it's easier to gamify, many already have the knowledge required to understand its various theatres and, frankly, it's just more interesting. Still, trench warfare with modern game design principles and graphics has proven popular recently with the likes of Verdun, and early-1900s warfare in general with Battalion 1944. It's also worth noting that this listing for Battlefield 5 makes no mention of the previous generation of consoles - all new tech, all the time. That seems like the correct decision to me, the old generation should be left behind even if their install base is larger - the graphical improvements alone make switching over worth it. What would you think of a WW1 Battlefield? Do you prefer the day-after-tomorrow future-tech that currently dominates the larger FPS franchises, or do you think there's riper opportunities elsewhere? http://www.pcgamesn.com/battlefield-5/battlefield-5-shows-up-on-german-retailer-site-reportedly-set-in-world-war-1 Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk Remember until DICE says otherwise, this is a rumor. Oh October 26, 2016 is the now rumored release date.

Battlefield 5’ updates: DICE hires new team to ‘push visual quality to the next level’ Godfrey Barasa | Feb 23, 2016 04:53 AM EST "Battlefield 5" developer company, DICE, has already teased that it wants to improve the standards of the game in terms of graphics and animation quality. It is now evident that DICE is working hard to achieve the goals, especially after it placed a new advert on its official website for an addition to the development team. The company has announced to hire a senior concept artist and among the responsibilities, he will be charged with pushing visual quality to the next level on an unannounced "AAA title." Although DICE is not specific on the particular game this senior concept artist is being hired for, the fact that it is for an unannounced AAA title appears to point towards "Battlefield," according to Gaming Bolt. In case this is true, it is likely that the game will look as good as any fans have seen in the genre. Every game that has been released since the launch of PS4 and Xbox One has looked better than the previous and DICE seems focused on getting better moving forward. There are rumors that the company is planning to build game settings similar to some of the locations in Japan. Fans will have to wait to see what "Battlefield 5" has in store, but it is evident that the company is working on something different. However, fans should be excited since DICE has already begun working on the next title and it is soliciting for personnel for elements that need extra help. "Battlefield 5" is slated for a release within the third quarter of this year. Game publisher Electronic Arts already sent a press release outlining some of the known facts about the franchise and its games. Reportedly, upcoming games will follow the last entry in the franchise - "Battlefield Hardline." "Battlefield 5" will be released for PS4 and Xbox One, although fans should expect the developer company to unveil more information concerning the release during E3 2016.

LOL

Origin and Battlelog shows only BF4 under your name? New origin account? Why isn't your BF3 profile in the same account as BF4? Why would you get a new origin account for BF4?

Battlefield 5 is on its way, and it’s being developed right now, as we speak. We also know a surprising bit about this title, as well as what to expect from it when it is eventually revealed later this year. First and foremost, we know for certain that the game will be returning to its military-themed roots, following last year’s rather awkward cops-and-robbers theme. The last military-themed Battlefield was Battlefield 4, which came out all the way back in 2013. Being a mainline Battlefield game, Battlefield 5 will be developed by DICE, the original Swedish developer of the franchise, fresh off the heels of Star Wars Battlefront. Secondly, Battlefield 5 is coming out later this year, targeting a Holiday 2016 release. According to EA CEO Andrew Wilson, the game will be released in Quarter 3 of the 2017 fiscal year, and Quarter 3 ends in December. This lines up well with previous mainline Battlefield releases, which have also targeted a similar release window. As for when we’re getting an official confirmation of the game itself: no sooner than March, seeing as Battlefield Hardline is still getting DLC, with the next and final DLC pack, Betrayal, releasing in March. It would be rather sensible to release a brief teaser after Betrayal comes out, followed by a more extended showing at E3 2016, and then, finally, a release later this year. My bet... no communication till Games Developers Conference March 14-18. This conference is historically where we have seen the first info/trailers from the recent BF games (3/4). I would assume they are on hold with CTE till the announcement of BF5 at the GDC.

its about time someone caught you. It was probably ACS. He caught him in that other thread he posted LOL!

New Battlefield 4 server update has improved anti-cheat system 14 DICE improves security and stability with new server update. February 9th, 2016 IN News http://bf4central.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/bf4-servers-640x375.jpg <img src=" Page not found – My Blog BF4CENTRAL.COM alt="New Battlefield 4 server update has improved anti-cheat system" width="640" height="375" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-10966" /> DICE just released a new Battlefield 4 server update, which includes a number of behind the scenes improvement. Chief among those is an update to the anti-cheat system, which should now be even better. The Battlefield 4 R56 server update (the 56th server update to date) also includes stability updates, but DICE has refrained from releasing specific patch notes for the R56 update. A message to players and sever operators simply says: “Additional stability and security updates on the back-end followed by server restarts.” The server update was applied yesterday and is now live for all players on all platforms. Like with any other popular multiplayer game, cheating is always going to be a factor. Over the years, DICE has made continuous improvement to the software to detect and ban players who cheat. They even deliberately left an exploit in the game last year to catch and ban cheaters.

BF4 MP will be down for 1 hour per platform starting 8A UTC / 12A PT for a game server update. https://twitter.com/battlefield The update http://news.softpedia.com/news/battlefield-4-improves-multiplayer-for-xbox-one-and-ps4-small-servers-500100.shtml On the official forums, David Sirland, a producer working on the shooter, explains that the default simulation is moving from 30hz to 45hz for all small servers, those who have 32 players at the most. The developer explains that his team has taken into account a wide array of data before making the decision to tweak the tickrate, with a range of tests used to determine the best value for the community. Apparently, higher values work well for most players, but DICE says that it wants to make sure that all those still playing Battlefield 4 are satisfied with the way the multiplayer is tweaked. Sirland adds, "We are not increasing the default rate for 64 player for the same reasons. We did see issues for both players, and sometimes the server in certain circumstances in our testing – even at small tickrate increases." For the 64-player servers, the studio has also chosen to be conservative when it comes to tickrate changes because it is not confident that all gamers will be affected positively. On February 9 DICE plans to enable the new rate, starting at 10 AM CET, on servers in the North American East Coast server pool, with a testing period set to take place over the next two days before a full rollout take place on February 11. The company says that it welcomes feedback about the change and that it will revert it if any problems are flagged by the community. A new Battlefield title might arrive in the fall The final paid downloadable content pack for the current installment in the series was launched in late 2014, and since then DICE has delivered some free updates for the shooter and has continued tweaking the core mechanics based on the feedback of the community. Since then Visceral Games has launched the new Hardline, which moves the focus of the franchise to the conflict between criminals and the police force, with another piece of DLC set to be launched in the coming months. Rumors are saying that a new Battlefield is being created by the team at DICE and is set to arrive at some point before the end of the year. Apparently, the studio wants to use a more classic military theme and will offer mechanics that will attract a wider number of players. So far no official launch windows and no platforms have been confirmed for the new Battlefield. In the meanwhile DICE is still working on Star Wars Battlefront, which will receive monthly free updates with new content as well as paid DLC that will introduce more locations in the Outer Rim, Bespin and the Death Star, with gamers also set to get access to eight new heroes.

DICE has teased that something pretty huge is going to be revealed this week. The makers of the Battlefield franchise went to Twitter to tell the world about a ‘BIG trailer,’ that will be released in the coming days. Senior video & media director/editor Randy Evans tweeted about this upcoming trailer, saying ‘people don’t know what’s coming.’ Mouse over video for audio http://cdn.intergi.com/in-page-video/img/volume-unmute.png Interestingly, despite Randy Evans suggestion that the world is ignorant to the possible reveal, many are suspecting it might be the first official trailer (or at least a small teaser) of Battlefield 5 or perhaps Bad Company 3. Battlefield is DICE’s most well-known and accomplished franchise, so it’s natural for fans of the series to reflexively point towards a possible sequel following the tweet. However, Mirror’s Edge Catalyst is also said to get some new information released this week, and it could be possible Randy Evans is merely referring to that. The only reason to doubt that bit though is how hyped Evans was in that tweet. Mirror’s Edge is certainly an attractive franchise, but it doesn’t have the same kind of massive fan-base Battlefield possesses. So keep your eyes peeled folks, as there’s definitely some new information and a new trailer upcoming. If it’s Battlefield 5 (or Bad Company 3), then high-five! If not, well, there’s no such thing as a bad ‘BIG trailer’ (I hope). It’s time to see if we’re really heading back to our military roots Evans bold remarks have certainly garnered everyone’s attention now. There’s a lot of speculation that the upcoming trailer has everything to do with the new Battlefield game. This is purely based on the fact that Electronic Arts has already confirmed its plans to release Mass Effect: Andromeda, Titanfall 2, and the new Battlefield game within the next fourteen months. Additionally, the new Battlefield installment is reported to arrive in time for Holiday 2016. This makes it prime time for DICE to start telling us about its new project, which is said to be going back to its military roots. That being said, the trailer could also be related to the Mirror’s Edge Catalyst reboot. Earlier this month, the official Mirror’s Edge Twitter account confirmed that new details about the game are set to arrive this week. Since Evans stated that fans don’t have a clue about what’s coming for them, a trailer for Mirror’s Edge Catalyst would be a bit too obvious. Additionally, a new trailer for a title that has already been revealed for months now doesn’t qualify as something that can surprise people. Battlefield 5 on the other hand makes much more sense, as we currently have no details about the game whatsoever. We don’t even know if it’s even called Battlefield 5. If EA is planning to release the new installment by the end of 2016, an announcement right now will give them plenty of time to reveal more about the game.
