I’m able to queue into just fine which is where my confusion is coming from. Sure the odd match gets dropped, or the menus freak out when first loading in, but it works once you’re in.
Yay!

In my experience in the last month I’ve only been able to find 2-3 matches in BTB with many, many attempts.
I load into any other game mode in roughly 5-10 seconds on my series X.
I keep getting recurring prompts that say “Disconnected from the dedicated sever”
and it will persist to join the match that is unavailable, with repeated errors which leaves me no choice but to close and restart the app.
I mean you complete the Battle Pass by doing challenges… So its essentially the same thing? 
Honestly though, this is irrelevant. If you are someone that are playing this game every day still then good for you, but it is not going to get myself or someone else that has already sort of moved on to come back. Cosmetics are no substitute for content. I don’t care if they make everything in the store for FREE, that is meaningless to most of the people that have already left and many people that are already on their way out.
I don’t understand what you mean?
My point was, If you complete challenges to unlock XP boosts separate from the battle pass you can use those said XP boosts to level yourself in the battle pass the same way you currently do… you with me?
BUT It makes no sense to have XP boosts as unlocks in the tier system of the battlepass.
They need to be separated.
I don’t want to get to level 55 (as I have done) and unlock an XP boost to get to level 57 and unlock another XP boost. There is no point in that…
I’d rather options for armor and coatings.
They’re going to get their $10 dollars. If it ain’t through the Battle Pass they are going to nickel and dime stuff out of the store.
The store is the only part of this game that has functioned as designed since day 1, and if you think that’s a coincidence…

Ok I’m going to give you some advice here.
the XP boosts (or grants as they call it) are extremely good. The reason is because you can pop one (or two) at the beginning of a week and it essentially doubled all of your XP earnings for a week in a matter of hours. Without XP grants the progression would be far far longer so although it may be cool on paper to suggest they just replace XP grants/swaps entirely with actual cosmetis I just believe that those are central to the system and without them it becomes a much more grindy and less rewarding system overall. So instead of getting to level 100 in 3 weeks to 1 month (like I did) it would easily require 2-3 times the amount of time to essentially get a bunch of filler items you don’t even care about necessarily.
I’d rather they just make the BattlePass go to 120 or something, even though it doesn’t sound as hot as the other does.
Regardless, this has nothing to do with earnable credits so now I’m confused what you are talking about.
Straight off the bat… don’t speak to me so condescendingly.
I don’t appreciate that at all.
A better example of what I’m trying to convey is:
If you complete 5 challenges you get an XP boost token to use.
They are as you and I both said incredibly useful tools to level your BP.
I don’t wish for them to be removed entirely.
I wish for them to be implemented differently.
I can’t find any other way to explain that XP boosts shouldn’t be used as tier items in my honest opinion because levelling for the sake of levelling without any reward negates the entire point.
Maybe even IF they did keep the XP boosts in the battlepass tier system they stretch it out.
Instead of the current system they have in place for example:
Unlocking a XP boost>challenge swap>left shoulder piece>xp boost>challenge swap>right shoulder piece.
That is just lazy implementation.
That’s my entire point of having them not including them in the BP. It defeats the point.
My mention of the XP system was in reply to someone else.
I agree the BP is too short, I also achieved level 100 about 3 or 4 weeks ago.
It always feels like 343 is promising about the future and never delivering
It’s like being in a bad relationship and they keep saying they can change but nothing happens lol
5 months for earnable credits is way too far in the future and doesn’t change the state of the server issues and lack of content…
