Battlefield V Beta Spawn Bug Has a Fix and It’s Super Easy

If you’re one of the many people pouring in hours into the currently on-going Battlefield V beta, then chances are you’ve encountered a bug or two (or three, or four) during your sessions, which is understandable since this is a beta after all.

However, one such bug won’t even let you spawn in at all! Multiple people on various social platforms have echoed that for some unknown reason, the game won’t let you spawn in as a certain class, and might even show as “deploy point not available” even though it should! The fix is super simple, though might be complicated depending on how much time you’ve spent leveling up.

Over on Twitter, DICE Producer Jaqub Ajmal detailed the following Battlefield V beta spawn issue fix:

In case the tweet above didn’t show up, it reads as:

If you run into an issue in the Open Beta where the game won’t let you spawn as a certain class, do some big changes to the customization, add and remove duplicate weapons and try spawning with another weapon. This workaround has worked for a few players.

Unfortunately, if you’re just starting out and this happens, you won’t have any “big changes” available to your class. In that case, I suggest playing as another class first and then just trying again once you respawn. Definitely not ideal, but hey, it is a beta, no?
