  BLURRED BATTLEFIELD: The ceasefire with Iran is still holding for now, even as U.S. forces take fire. Officials believe a blurred battlefield of different Iranian factions is responsible, rather than the negotiators themselves, @pdoocy reports: "They're trying to figure out if the people they are negotiating with from Iran are the same people shooting at them, because there are multiple different factions causing problems for White House officials during this process." "If they can determine that the people they are making peace arrangements with are the same people who are shooting at them, then the ceasefire is off. But for now, it seems like the understanding is, there are just a lot of people in Iran who have different agendas, anti-American agendas, and one of those groups are the ones shooting at the U.S."

  @ElaineM11584892 Israel is advertising in online platforms that zero income tax is available for Jews who migrate to Israel. I assume this will come with a requirement for military service also. The future Drone war will be a tipping point for Israeli dominance on the battlefield.

  @Battlefield map rotation is broken. Bullets against bots only work 100% of the time if you purchase Pro. Bots are bullet sponges when you want a player to die

  @CTCGVillionaire @playriftbound Agree completely. Opening a box feels terrible getting all these worthless legends. They have to fix the seeding too. My buddy only night two boxes and they were the exact same box. Just have a dedicated battlefield/legend spot. Or a box topper with legends. Something

  @yosef6942 @redpillb0t Military directed-energy weapons (high-power microwaves) are researched for disabling electronics or drones, but this specific brain-affecting pulsed system isn't battlefield-ready. The Norwegian experiment was a one-off homemade test that injured the scientist himself. Scaling it for war raises massive issues: power demands, precise targeting without friendly-fire, easy shielding countermeasures, and international law restrictions on weapons causing indiscriminate or unnecessary harm. Not a practical "secret weapon" yet.

  @Rev0verDrive my main gripe is the ttk essentially being instantaneous on occasions a majority of the problem being 3 btk weapons as well as my reticle not being tied to the center of the screen, BF4 fixed these things like the reticle but since then battlefield has drifted away from that mechanic in favor of worse systems like the one seen in BFV just to give an example.

  @BattlefieldComm A lot of the time you cannot even identify where the paint is coming from, which removes meaningful counterplay entirely. This urgently needs fixing. I also did not see any mention of flare reliability being fixed. It is good that infantry can no longer lock while flares are active, but the bigger issue still exists: missiles frequently ignore flares entirely and hit anyway. This is one of the most frustrating and unfair mechanics currently in the game because it removes all predictability and counterplay. Battlefield is an arcade shooter, not a MILSIM. Flares should reliably defeat lock-ons every time. Randomly dying because a missile ignored your flares is not good gameplay. Another issue is that lock-ons currently have effectively infinite vertical range. This makes proper jet dogfighting nearly impossible because infantry can still lock jets even at the sky ceiling. Infinite vertical lock range only makes sense against helicopters, since helicopters can actually hover near the skybox and farm with a gunner. Jets are already ineffective against infantry from that altitude, so this mechanic just unnecessarily punishes jet combat. ================================================== JET DOGFIGHTING AND AIR-TO-AIR SKILL GAP ================================================== The biggest issue overall is that the lack of a real skill gap in air combat has barely been addressed at all. Jet dogfighting currently has an extremely fast time-to-kill. If someone gets behind you and can aim reasonably well, there is essentially zero opportunity for counterplay. If an enemy jet who is significantly worse than you gets behind you first, you realistically have almost no chance to reverse the fight because the TTK is simply too fast. Combined with how quickly mobility hits occur — and how devastating they are — dogfights become shallow and low-skilled. There is also still no proper air radar, which is honestly unacceptable this long after launch in a modern Battlefield game. Combined with poor visibility, weak freelook controls, and the lack of a proper rear camera, situational awareness barely matters because the tools to maintain awareness do not exist. Air radar is absolutely necessary for modern jet gameplay and should have been fixed months ago. The newly added indicator showing when an enemy jet is aiming at you is also not the right solution. This does not solve the actual issue. The actual issue is the lack of proper awareness systems. Right now, because of the extremely fast jet TTK and lack of awareness tools, if you suddenly realize a jet is near you, you are usually already dead within a second anyway. The indicator basically becomes a “you are about to die” warning rather than meaningful gameplay. A proper radar system would create an actual awareness skill gap where players track enemy aircraft, position intelligently, and react proactively instead of relying on automated warning indicators. Mobility hits also need a full rework. On top of that, the current jet flight model is poor and lacks meaningful speed control. In the stealth jet, the optimal turning rate is currently achieved through “V-tapping,” where players spam throttle inputs to abuse the thrust vectoring system. This clearly feels unintended and does not create a healthy skill gap — anyone can spam buttons. A much better system would be something closer to the Battlefield 4-inspired attack jet flight model introduced late in Battlefield 2042’s lifecycle. That model had an actual optimal speed range for maximum turn performance, which rewarded proper speed management and pilot skill. Right now, even in the attack jet, optimal turning is still achieved by repeatedly tapping throttle rather than genuinely managing speed. Maintaining precise speed control should be the skill gap, not abusing input spam.

  I get the need for updating your network, but we need to put a lid and dial back the amount of content coming out from active duty military service-members on social media. One thing if you are retiring/transitioning out of service and prepping the battlefield to set yourself up for success. I can't fault that. And we should recognize service and the hard work our military folks put in, 100%. But, the lieutenants, mid level officers, senior leaders posting their awards, accomplishments, training events, duties and life updates. Let's have a little tact and dare say, OPSEC, about what and where we are pushing out information. Such an amateur look. Am I wrong?

  @oohmardeyforyou @kusowarataww The Mercari listing is for this creepy wooden cat/tanuki statue with a "cursed heirloom" backstory: Grandpa brought it from the battlefield. Family members suffered ear problems/deafness, one had an ear ripped off in an accident, and grandma's mom hanged herself. Seller dropped price from ¥10k to ¥7k claiming it's "probably fine." A YouTuber ("Bakuso Rocket") bought it, posted a video "spending one night with the cursed figurine," then his channel went silent. Classic cursed item meme.

  @BattlefieldComm The addition of displaying jet speed in knots is cool aesthetically, but currently meaningless because there is no real speed management gameplay in the current flight model. Looking at your speed barely matters when the game does not reward proper speed control in the first place. ================================================== HELICOPTER 1V1 SKILL GAP ================================================== Little Bird 1v1s also still suffer from an extremely low skill gap because of the miniguns. Pilot snipes happen constantly due to the combination of high spread and very high damage. Players do not need precise aim — they just spray in the general direction of the helicopter and randomly kill the pilot. As a result, equal-height Little Bird fights often feel extremely random and 50/50 instead of skill-based. A much healthier system would be Battlefield 4-style miniguns with high accuracy and precision. That would reward intentional pilot snipes instead of random luck. It would also make the Little Bird less frustrating for infantry because poor players would no longer be able to farm so easily with inaccurate high-damage spray. ================================================== TANKS, MOBILE AA, AND DEPLOYMENT CAMPING ================================================== Another issue that still was not addressed is tanks camping near their deployment C-RAM. Currently tanks can sit next to the C-RAM, have incoming projectiles deleted, and still fire outward safely from deployment. Either the C-RAM should destroy both friendly and enemy projectiles, or tanks simply should not be allowed to fire while inside deployment. This situation helps nobody. Instead of pushing objectives and supporting infantry, tanks are encouraged to sit in deployment acting as anti-air platforms with effectively zero risk. A tank should not be able to sit inside deployment and endlessly spam TOWs with no possible counterplay. The same issue exists with Mobile AA. The problem is not that Mobile AA is overpowered. Its weapons are already strong enough to counter jets and helicopters effectively. The real issue is that it is far too easy and rewarding for Mobile AA players to simply camp in deployment where they are almost impossible to punish while still having lock-on range over most of the map. Mobile AA honestly could even use slight buffs in areas like survivability or maneuverability, but its cannons and lock-ons are already strong enough already. The problem is deployment camping, not lack of power. ================================================== ENGINEER SPECIALIZATION CHANGES ================================================== The Combat Engineer overheat perk nerf is also completely unnecessary. Reducing the Overheat Control perk from 50% slower overheat to only 10% is an enormous nerf to a perk that was never even a problem to begin with. This feels like another unnecessary anti-vehicle nerf instead of addressing the actual gameplay issues affecting vehicle balance. ================================================== FINAL THOUGHTS ================================================== Again, this is not about pilots wanting to go 100-0 with no counters. There absolutely should be strong counterplay against air vehicles. The problem is that the actual air-versus-air gameplay currently has almost no meaningful depth, counterplay, or skill expression. Right now: - jet dogfights are too fast and too unforgiving - helicopter fights are too random - awareness tools are missing - several mechanics reward spam or luck more than mastery - and painting has become far too dominant against vehicles Ground-to-air balance still has issues too, especially with deployment camping and painting mechanics, but the biggest long-term problem is that air combat itself simply is not very skill-based right now. This update is a good start, and I appreciate that vehicle balance is finally getting attention, but it’s not good enough.
