Sneak Peek at the next Battlelog Updates

Hi everyone

I thought I'd give you just a sneak peek at some of the next Battlelog updates. There's a lot more happening, but these are some of the highlights I want to share with you today.

MARCH 25TH UPDATE

On Tuesday the 25th of March, alongside the release of Naval Strike for Premium members, you will see a brand new background image on Battlelog. Not only is it beautiful as an image; it's also a background video, and with the nice soothing waves, it has an incredible impact on the Battlelog experience.

We’re also introducing a lot of new features for the mobile app. First, we are now introducing Privacy settings in the mobile app, so you can see and edit your settings, such as invisible mode/presence, whether you have friend requests turned on or off, and different sharing levels for e.g. your stats.

It will now also be possible to look at all your unlocked and locked soldier portraits in the app, and select a new soldier portrait to be displayed.

We are also working a lot on adding emblems to the mobile Battlelog experience. While it won’t be in the next release, expect to see the emblem editor on mobile sometime in the future, but in the next release, we will add the possibility to look at your emblem gallery and easily set a new active emblem.

And last, but certainly not least: we are adding Battlepacks to mobile! In this first version, you will be able to see all the previously opened Battlepacks, view those you have yet to open, and of course be able to open them. We feel this is a great addition, so you can check out new Battlepacks on the run and open them wherever you are.

So a ton of great stuff coming with the release on Tuesday, alongside a lot of various fixes and improvements (we’ll post a full changelog on the day of the release). But there is a chance that our release after that – on April 8th – will be even better!

APRIL 8TH UPDATE

While changes may still occur, we are looking at two major additions to Battlelog.

1) Platoons

Platoons will receive its first significant update (internally we call it Platoons v1.1), where the primary goal is to make it easier for Platoon members to play together. There’s a couple of things we’re adding to Platoons, but the most significant will without doubt be the ability to see where your Platoon members are playing right now!

On the Platoons home page, you will see a small notice bar when Platoon members are playing (e.g. “4 members are playing”), and clicking that will take you to the new Servers tab, where you will see all the servers your fellow Platoon members are playing on, of course grouped and sorted so the server with the most Platoon members on it is shown in the top.

2) Loadout Presets

It’s finally happening! The feature has been under a few revisions since we first talked about it in January, but we now hope to release it on April 8th. In this version, you will be able to save presets for your kits and vehicles in a very simple way; just click the dropdown, choose a few slot and give it a name. Once applied, your kit or vehicle will be take the name of your preset! And you do the same to apply a preset; just click to see the dropdown and select a used slot to apply that preset.

Loadout Kit Presets [eaassets-a.akamaihd.net]

If you want a better overview of all the presets you have created, and perhaps clean them up a bit after a while, you just go to the Presets Management page, where you can browse through them all, delete them, or apply a bunch of them before you save your Loadout.

Loadout Preset Management [eaassets-a.akamaihd.net]

Do note that Loadout Presets will only be available on Battlelog in Battlefield 4, and not be reflected in-game. You basically apply presets to your one Loadout, which then follows you in-game when you save it. It is also our goal to allow you to view and apply presets in the mobile app, but you will need to use Battlelog in the browser to create new presets.

Well, that was a sneak peek at some of the things we have in store. We hope it’s something you’ll look forward to, and we can’t wait to hear what you think once we have released it.

As always, remember that things are still subject to change.

Regards,

Spent most of last night in the attack jet but unfortunately had some pretty decent pilots on so ended up spending most of the match doing loops :(

I would be happy to spend my time in the stealth jet smashing up other jets and choppers if you want (the attack jets feel like the attack chopper is to the mini birds :D - A flying boat)

@JGStonedRaider: Will do and good luck for the 8v8.

Excited about this. There are times when I want to quickly switch to silencer or various load outs for engineer.

Also thanks VR for forwarding this.

I'm not going to make the decision but we don't allow hackers or non legit players on our (my) teamspeak. Having said that I have also been known to use flag capture servers.... I will talk to our admin team tonight and see what the general consensus is.

Not been on for a few nights been a bit busy and at the other end of the country.

Also probably going to get us a server at some point depending on how good NS is. Maybe an 8v8 server or 16v16 (depending on numbers) so we could have some friendlies against cG.

Any hints as to what you're reviewing?

CR = pure crap, guilean peaks is ok, just a shame you go around in circles non stop...
SA = not played them too much but didn't really like them in bf 3 and they are even worse in bf 4 imo, the gunship on caspian and firestorm completely ruins those two, wish they brought back bc 2 maps instead

CR= Guilean Peaks is actually fun, but as nexus says people tend not to defend 'anything ever' so it turns into a big circle run and cap.

Silk Road is actually fun as well, but only if you have a team that actually work together otherwise it's a snipers paradise, with the occasional tank ruining your stroll in the dunes as well.

SA= Pretty crap. Caspian is the best and would be 100 times better if they removed the Gunship from it.

Yup I didn't think momo was cheating but doing what he said, too strange how it is only the one weapon that has that high of a headshot to kill ratio and his other stats not being "cheater" stats, playing with and against him etc.

hehe true that! :D

Just a shame the stealth isn't much good against ground vehicles or camping infantry :(

Presume you use 20mm in stealth as well?

Don't know how westie, joe etc. use 20mm, I find it soooooo weak!

Do you/we really want to get raped that badly? :p :o Besides, the majority of cG guys have given up on bf 4 and gone back to bf 3 now :(


Personally I still think having our own server isn't too good of an idea:

- can't team stack, well we could but server would be dead
- having to get the server started/filled up in the morning, a lot harder than it sounds

Ace for pros!

:p


Nothing too exciting, just the asus RP-N14 (budget version of the asus RP-N53 that I reviewed)
 
Loadout Presets sounds good, looking forward to that though I generally only switch rocket launchers depending on whats about on the map.

Will be on tonight for some more games. Ranking up stupidly quick playing with you lot (think I was lvl 30 when I started, now 47!)
 
Sigh, can't use soundboard stuff till they update it :(

TeamSpeak recently upgraded to a new version, making the plugins' version 0.9.9.6 incompatible. The betatesters and I are still working to get a few things right, but the final release should online in a few days. If you heavily rely on this plugin, you should consider not upgrading directly to the new TS version.

Thank the lord, TS will be bearable now.

LevelBF Veteran / Open tier sign up

Hey guys, first season of LevelBF BF4 tournament with Veteran / open Tier's. Be great to see some of you guys fighting it out each week. It's 32vs32 format with some of the best players in the world for top tier. There will be training and so on in the Open tier so that for the next season, anyone wanting too can make the jump up to Veteran Tier (plus having played a LVLBF tournament you would now qualify).

I had some great times there and that is what got me into BF3 / BF4 comp. That said, it's all very informal and good fun (unlike comp)

I want to make it 100% clear that I don't care about server popularity. It would be for us to enjoy and that is it; when we get enough on we could play against each other, or if it turns out it is popular we could team stack. I don't want to get one and worry about numbers, simply just for our enjoyment.

I use 20mm, not sure if its the best. I just enjoy dogfighting in the stealth jet because it's closer to BF3 (afterburner/yaw). I use heatseakers and try and get kills on minibirds/transport choppers.

Basically focus on aircraft so that the attack jet can perform it's role.
 
I suck with the stealth jets. I can never see where the tracers are when I fire, too small compared to the attack jets.
