[BFComms] Casual Breakthrough Matchmaking resolved
We have deployed a backend fix to resolve the Casual Breakthrough matchmaking problem. It might take a while before the update is deployed to all servers, so you might still return to the main menu from time to time after searching for a game. Requeuing should now get you into a game more quickly. Thanks for your patience.

[BFComms] Casual Breakthrough Matchmaking
We are aware that queueing for Casual Breakthrough is currently not working properly, and some players are getting put back into the main menu after successfully matchmaking initially. We're investigating the root cause of this problem and will update you as we make progress. In the meantime, players have reported that trying a few times can be successful.

[BFComms] 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!

Battlefield 6 Season 5 Las Vegas Gameplay Trailer
All bets are off when Battlefield 6 Season 5 hits Las Vegas on October 13.
Check out the Las Vegas Gameplay Trailer below and head over to our trailer discussion post: https://entry.everything-inc.network/channels/140933721929940992/1557044980831490118 @role-name
[BFComms] Match & Lobby Continuity Change
Over the next few days, you might start seeing more familiar faces across consecutive matches.
We’re testing some backend matchmaking tweaks designed to keep more players together between rounds whenever conditions allow.
We expect this to be more noticeable in the official playlists where everyone shares the same map and mode rotation.
As part of this, the team is aware of a small error message displaying at the bottom right of the screen when joining a match. Gameplay and matchmaking remain unaffected while the team works on a fix.
Because this is an active test, we’ll be monitoring matchmaking health and lobby balance closely, and may dial things back or pause adjustments if needed.
Drop into a few rounds and let us know how your games feel.

Battlefield Community,
We've heard your feedback about wanting more chances to use the Top Gun cosmetics you may have acquired earlier this season.
As part of our latest update, we have lifted the class restrictions for the Lt. Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw and the Lt. Robert "Bob" Floyd skins. Now, both of these skins will be available to utilize with any NATO class.
If you haven't already had a chance to grab these character skins, both have returned to the store and will be available until the end of Season 4.
See you in the skies, pilots.

[BFComms] Anti-Air Below Radar Clarification
Today's blog incorrectly stated that we are removing Below Radar for the SLM-93A and Igla launchers.
This was a miscommunication. While we tested this adjustment in Battlefield Labs, it only partly met our design goals. Based on test results and player feedback, we decided to not go live with this change at the launch of Season 5.
Both launchers will retain Below Radar functionality while we continue to look into potential design tweaks and balance around MANPADS, Below Radar, and air vehicles.
Thank you for all your feedback and we're excited to see you in Vegas!
