I shamelessly stole it from Reddit, but it is a good meme :)

Here's the update notes. They haven't fixed the invisible soldiers, but improved it supposedly. Not exactly a ground breaking patch :(

What’s Changed?
  • Fixes targeted at removing extreme instances of Invisible Soldiers
  • Specializations are now able to be reset on the P08 Carbine
  • The game will no longer stutter when killing enemies with tanks
  • Removed an unintended suppression effect that was applying to infantry soldiers when a tank fires it’s main cannon
  • The screen will no longer turn black when firing stationary cannons
  • The Arras sights on the Lewis gun now displays correctly when using extended mags
  • Rate Of Fire for the MKVI Revolver has also been reduced to 180RPM, from 200RPM
  • The correct crosshair now shows for the Mosquito FB MKVI on all load-outs
  • The Company will now display the correct amount of bombs for the JU-88
  • Players trying to spawn into airplanes should no longer get stuck on the deploy screen
What’s being worked on for Update 4.4?
  • Additional fixes are also targeted to improve performance and stability across all platforms
  • New Maps: Lofoten Islands and Provence
  • Increase in Max Rank to 500
  • Updates to Fortress Mode
  • New Weapons - In preparation for subsequent Tides of War Rewards (Panzerbüchse 39, Breda M1935, C96 Pistol Carbine)
  • Fixes for desynced top-gunner hitbox on certain Vehicles
  • Fixes for desynced soldier hitbox known to occur when reviving or vaulting

Really?

Considering they delayed the patch it is a bit weak.

No mention of Mirita either.

Yeah it is not good right now. They supposedly brought in another studio to crank out more content and fix bugs, but all they've done is delay content and break more things. Not sure what they are even focusing on? They are only vaguely mentioning their August patch.

They are getting blasted on Reddit right now, and rightfully so. This is bad even by Dice's already low standards for breaking things.

They need to release Mirita, Lofton I slands, Provence, and tgen spend August, September even October and properly fix game. No maps, no new Microtransaction outfits. Just dedicated fixing.

Yep, Rainbow 6 did that for an entire season. No new content, just fixes, and not just basic big fixes, but underlying issues that kept coming back. It really helped the game in the long run. They still get bugs, but they seem to be able to fix them quicker. They were in the same rut that Dice was in. Patch one thing and break 2, and not even fix the thing you wanted to.

I played BF4 for awhile recently off EA Access. I forgot how much fun that game was. You can find a couple full servers.
i go back to that at times... the 720p on Xbox is extremely rough thougn lol

if they released a 4k patch for that i would literally never touch BF5

Even on the X BF4 looks really rough, the shimmering is what kills me, still really fun though.
 
So apparently the 2 August maps, Loftun Islands & Provence, are small game mode only maps.

The jokes just keep on coming with this game. Dice are just clueless. I'm pretty much done with this dumb game.
 
Mirita out today...in about 3 hours on Xbox, 2 hours Ps4, 1 hour PC. Has a known bug with shiney receiver skins that creates more reflection.

Rush going. Lol.

Still using the dumb 24/7 mixed mode playlist.

I'm not a big fan of the new map. It doesn't feel like a Batlefield map. It looks pretty but it's close quarters conflict. A snipers paradise too.

The next 3 maps aren't BF maps either. Dice seems to have forgotten what Battlefield is.
 
I like having a few smaller maps in every BF for a change of pace every now and then, but this many small maps in a row plus not getting that many new maps to begin with is ridiculous. What are they thinking?
 
I’ve found out how to have fun in this. Don’t go for the objective, only kills. It’s amazing. I started 35-0 as a sniper earlier, finished at 42-2. We lost 650-0 but it was a good time.

That is an ass kicking but at least you had fun.
 
Looks like they're going to have to be seeing that Dice can't get the big maps to work. Still waiting on Al Sundan conquest.
Yeah. Of the 5 maps they vaguely announced to drum up hype Al Sundan is the only BF-esque map and we still don't have it ror the modes it was intended for.

The fact that the Pacific expansion only haas 3 maps (still no clue if they will be drip fed or launch dauy 1) doesn't exactly fill me with hype either.

Yeah it is dumb. It is as if Dice just wants the most popular mode to be TDM, cause that is shat Conquest mainly is now.

I 'm thinking of reinstalling BF1 and binning BF5.
 
Hence why I unistalled the game a month ago.

Yeah sadly I have not played in at least a month and it looks like it will be another month+ before I do.

COD is looking good too and is not that far away.

This game needs a ton of fixes and a bunch of new content. It looks like it is going to be fall before we get anything.

I hate to be negative and say the game is in a bad spot but right now things are a total disaster.

Fall isn't going to be great eiither. Only 3 maps with the pacific theatre and no clue how they will be distributed. Guarenteed atleast 1 will be a non BF infantry focused map too.
 
Tried the new map recently. I didn’t care for it. As much as I enjoyed this game the first few months I had it they have really s*** the bed this year. This game just doesn’t keep me coming back I just fire it up every now and then. I played BF1 a lot more and for me it’s the better game.
 
Well, it hasn't been a great couple of months for BFV, but some... good news. (or at least better way late than never)

Al Sundan is launching for conquest and breakthrough (64 player modes) as originally intended (only took 3 months to fix).

Of course Operation Underground is delayed, private matches delayed and just about everything else not Al Sundan is delayed.

The only other small positive is they supposedly have a fix for the high pings people were seeing (I haven't tested it in awhile)

 
It's been a couple of months since I played this. I guess I've lost interest but will give Al Sundan a try and maybe perk my interest again.

The game has been in a really bad state unfortunately. Basically the entire summer came and went with zero content updates other than small maps on modes nobody really plays. You likely missed nothing. I don't think I've fired up the game since June.

Have to hope they get Operation Underground out soon. There are rumors it will come out next week which is pretty good. Al Sundan and Underground will help a little.

The big problem is that Dice is still very bad on the communication. They basically announced all the stuff being delayed yesterday that was supposed to come out today.
 
Yeah it’s been a rough summer for the game. I haven’t played it in a couple weeks now, and I was playing it almost everyday, the phunking network lag issues have been unreal. Hopefully Al Sundan will actually get into large game type modes...
 
I’ve lost interest in this game. Just find it hard to go back to. I play a match every couple weeks, then start playing something else.
