New massive Easter Egg

A new Easter Egg has been found on the new Dragon Valley map. But it is very, very complex - It includes unique, random, different and long codes, keypads, morse code, small hidden buttons, waiting...it’s very complex and tiresome. But it unlocks the DICE LA Camo, which is white and makes you invisible to IRNV/FLIR sights.

Here is a video from jackfrags on it, check it out:

No more accessories for the Bow

So, we know that the Phantom Bow is available for unlock to anyone who picks it up in the new Operation Outbreak map that has been featured in the Community Operations DLC. After that, of course the number of people that use the bow increased a lot, so players asked DICE to implement some accessories for it.

But unfortunately, DICE said that they don’t have plans for releasing any implements for the Phantom Bow. They did try to add a Fire Arrow, but it didn’t make it into the game because it needed some more complex codes.

So basically, we’ll have to stick with the normal arrow and the poison arrow.

It’s a shame that we won’t have any more varieties for the Phantom Bow, since so many people are using it now, but I guess the Bow is already a pretty good weapon even with just two accessories.

Wow.

Ok so it turns out that you unlock the phantom bow just by picking it up.

That’s the news I found out when changing my loadout.

Phantom Bow available on Community Operations?

So, apparently the Phantom Bow, featured in the Final Stand DLC, is now available as a Power Gun in the new map.

What do you think about that?

While all of the people who couldn’t try out the bow before can now have it, all the hard work the players had to do to get the Phantom Bow (finding all of the dog tags and stuff), will simply go to waste.

What is your opinion on that?

Community Operations just came out!

Today, October 27t, the Community Operations DLC came out!

This DLC features a map in which the Battlefield community worked on, called Operation Outbreak, that is seen in the trailer.

It also has a new Power Gun, which are the weapons you find on the ground around the map, and new types of arrows for the Phantom Bow, featured in the Final Stand DLC.

Very excited to test it out right now, as soon as I update Battlefield 4!

Stay on for more updates!

So...

This blog is kind of dead by now. How much of an idiot I am to simply leave behind the only place where I got a number higher than 150 on a counter, lol.

I guess i’ll just post some stuff then.

The Patch will arrive May 26th!

This tuesday, The Patch will be released!

Just reminding that this patch will include the 5 new weapons:  AN-94,  Groza-1,  Groza-2,  L86A1 and “Mare's Leg”.

Along with stability and netcode updates and weapon balance,

the “Gun Master” game mode will be back, with 5 configurations!

Default, classic, pistols, DLC, and “Troll”, where the first weapon is a ballistic shield and it keeps going on with crazy stuff, since it’s more of a party gamemode.

Stay on for more Battlefield updates soon!

Hardline Premium details leaked

Someone posted an image of the physical copy of Battlefield Hardline premium on Reddit:

Because Battlefield Hardline Premium edition hasn't been officially announced yet, we don't know if this is legit, but it looks pretty plausible.

Reminding that Hardline will come out March 17 and March 12 for subscribers of EA Acess on Xbox One.

New concept map created by a player

Someone created a concept map for Battlefield 4; although not official it appears to be very promising. Reddit user "Brokenfield" even created a story to the map:

"Russian troops invaded Huangshan in search of the American soldiers who recently destroyed their valuable scientific projects. 

The Z11Ws fly slowly along the river, along with their infantry troops into the city, while a group of armored vehicles look around the enemy base. 

When the two sides meet, both try to stop the advance of the troops by controlling the objectives around the streets and open fields."

The map will be called "Anhui Barrier". He also shared some pics:

This was made by a player, so DICE and the community are still working on it.

Remember to give your opinion on the Community Test Forum.

What is coming for Battlefield 4

DICE revealed some details about the content we're going to get soon for Battlefield 4. Heres what they said:

Create the map of the Community with us

"Okay, that's something we've never done before. There is a new content coming in 2015 and we are very anxious. Let's create a Battlefield 4 map along with you, the community. 

Together with our development team, you will shape a map based on what makes it fun to play. This map will be tested and modified in the Community Test Enviroment, available for Premium members Battlefield 4."

And, there's a video.

"As part of the Community Test Enviroment you will give us feedback on the map and create the final project with us. 

During this process we will be sharing details of the development. As thanks for the Battlefield community to not give up BF4 and help us improve it, we will provide the map of the Community for free to all players of all platforms."

Give us feedback on the Community maps in the Battlefield 4 Community Test Forums

The update will arrive in March

"In March we will be launching a new update, improving things like netcode and player collision. This update will also modify one of the game modes, Obliteration: Competitive.

Fast combat and focused on teamwork, this is the official competitive mode of Battlefield 4. If you have not tested, Obliteration: Competitive is a mode with five players on each side fighting for possession of a bomb on the map.

Your goal is to destroy two of the three enemy bases with bombs. What we want with this mode is to create something quick and challenging for the players and fun for those watching the match."

This sounds very nice, and the last CTE patch reveals that they want to make sure that the whole squad fits in vehicles, so they will be adding a co-pilot seat in the transport chopper, and one more rear passenger seat in the MRAPs and RHIBs.

And small vehicles will also be "unstuckable" with melee.
