In a tweet announcing this roadmap, DICE acknowledge that the players have been waiting patiently to learn how DICE will "address feedback and implement extensive fixes to the game, key features that are important to you, and getting team play where it needs to be."

One of the more notable updates coming down the pipe is a "refreshed in-round scoreboard" and in-game voice chat. The scoreboard and voice chat weren't planned to be in the game at first, with a prior blog post calling those "legacy features." As well as a scoreboard, players will be able to track their in-game progress with a player profile in the future. Meanwhile, the roadmap also mentions improving the reward loop, along with "expanded tools, modes, and tweaks to player experience gains in Battlefield Portal. Finally, to facilitate further improvements, the team is working on a new feedback loop, where the team and players will have centralized conversations about how to bring improvements and updates to the game.
