k up the game for those with decent connectionsGot back on this yesterday after a two week break,
Like the 3 new infantry maps, massive stutter everytime I get a kill xbox (hopefully being fixed)
managed to unlock both support guns and the new medic rifle (factory) - liking the fact the unlock requirements aren't stupid hard or stop you playing the objectives.
Hopefully the updates work and i'll spend tonight unlocking a few more guns

For the past 1-2 weeks matchmaking has been really crap - I choose "quickmatch" then "all available maps" and matchmaking takes ages, and when it does put me in a game it will be just me, or maybe me and one other person (and of course the game doesn't start).
Previously, matchmaking would take ~1-2 seconds...
So I had a look on server browser - pretty much every server has either 1 player, or 63/64 places taken...
Is it just me? (PC masterclass by the way, and Virgin Media fibre so fast speeds/low pings)

Exactly the same on PS4, again with Virgin - last week I was trying to get one of the medals that needed me to play supply drop (yawn) and I couldn't get a match, server browser showed one server in the US as having enough people in to start a game. I put that down to the game type being unpopular but then since that I've had the same issue you describe, it's slow and often just puts me into a map on my own. The same with Operations. Previously, matchmaking would take ~1-2 seconds...

I'm also finding that the new air mode has an out of bounds area that once you enter you can't come back into the map no matter how hard you try and you die as a deserter, no boundary marked on the mini map like normal. It's the London one IIRC.

Battlefield V reveal today - WWII variant.
https://www.battlefield.com/en-gb/games/battlefiel...
PH thread here: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
BF1 has been updated with some "Road to Battlefield V" unlocks, matchmaking is broken though
You can already pre-order on PC and XBox, no PS4 option currently.
https://www.battlefield.com/en-gb/buy/battlefield-...
There seems to be two versions, standard and deluxe - the deluxe XBox version is £79.99 or £71.99 with EA Access.
~5GB update for v1.24 just arrived, presumably part of the "Shock Operations" update but I can't see any release notes (and can't be bothered to hunt for them).
Just a heads-up in case anyone fancied a game later, switch on early
Turning Tides goes free for non-Premium types today too I believe, not sure how long for.

The Road to Battlefield freebies have also been extended if you're into collection pointless skins for weapons you never use

I'm trying to unlock the guns but need to destroy 5 enemy boats with the AT Rocket gun on the Assault class. No one uses boats and most of the maps don't even have them!
Do you have the Turning Tides maps? Cape Helles is a good one for destroying boats, the attackers have to come onto land using the attack boats and landing craft so are usually easy pickings if you get a spot on the beach.
