Information about Double XP Weekends

General Discussion
1

Double XP Weekends are here! Starting today, your accumulated match XP from each match played will be doubled during eligible weekends. Please note any XP rewarded for completing challenges, bonus XP for participating in flex queue or impacted roles in Role Queue, and any XP rewards from endorsements are not doubled during double XP weekends. You can earn double XP for matches played on these dates:

  • October 21 – 11:00 AM PDT to October 24 – 11:00 AM PDT
  • October 28 – 11:00 AM PDT to October 31 – 11:00 AM PDT
  • November 24 – 11:00 AM PDT to November 28 – 11:00 AM PDT

When you receive double XP for your matches played, you should see the total number of XP after each match be higher than normal. However, during our first two double XP weekends, no direct in-game messaging will indicate XP has been doubled. We will be adding messaging in-game coming in future double XP weekends.

A suggestion, can we have the double XP thing ingame menu as a bonus that can be activated manually, so players can choose when to activate it depending on their time schedule (free time), like for example I cant play that much in weekends sometimes compared to other days of the week .

Basically, it’s bonus ingame , when a player activate it , it lasts for like 2 days , and the player can choose when to use , whether Tuesday or Saturday or any other day of the week .

I’ve been playing a couple of games by now and i’ve yet seen the xp boost being added when a match has ended.

It’s literally the same amount as before…

Is the XP boost even working? I’m not seeing any additional XP, match wins still around the 2000XP mark, same as before?

I’m legit earning the same amount as before.

Is this some type of a placebo effect?

Mostly playing QP matches prior to XP boost were in the 800-1400 for me, and I’ve been seeing those QP matches in the 2000 range now.

Would have still prefered a level system than a “battle pass” level that reset each seasons. Progress or time put into the game feels like it’s not rewarding.

Why not? We missed out on several days of daily challenges, endorsements, and bonus XP from role queue due to the bugs. Shouldn’t double XP actually include all XP to truly help make up for lost time?
