Selective Focus AKA Depth of Field is Buggy. Always Blurry!
I aim down the street and BF6 thinks I'm looking at the cover I'm hiding behind. Cover = clear, enemies = blurry. Sometimes it gets stuck being blurry for like 15 seconds! Please fix EA! There's no option to turn off DoF in the settings. You have to edit a text file in the game files to fix it... I guess I'll do that for now... But I always feel like I'm going to break something.

I have never been able to join a single game on battlefield 2042. When I select to play a mode, I’ll go into a queue, the game says I’m joining and then I get a black screen for about 30 seconds and then I get sent back to the main menu. Has anyone been able to find a fix for this?335Views1like1CommentBattlefield 2042 crash when trying to stream with OBS Studio
Hello, I've been struggling lately to record/stream Battlefield 2042 gameplay, but the game is crashing, and sometimes even OBS Studio crashes along the way. Mostly it was with Directx crash with a script snippet "resizeBuffer", and "direct3d could not allocate sufficient memory...". Today, it just goes black and crashes immediately upon starting the game or 30 seconds into the game. I've attached the latest crash report here.387Views0likes1CommentThis software cannot be used at the same time as the game: Interception
What did you expect to happen? The game starts via steam, load EA app with EA AC and then load the game to title screen. What actually happened instead? The game started via steam, loaded the EA app as well as the EA AC but not loading the game. instead the error happened: "This software cannot be used at the same time as the game. Please make sure it's not running, or restart your PC.: Interception" What device/system are you using? Windows 10 PC, launched the game via Steam. Other Information: Checked any app or drivers installed with the name "Interception". None Restarted the PC. No error on startup. Check integrity of the file via Steam. Done, no error. Repair EA AC via the installer. Success Reinstall EA AC via the installer. Success. Again, restarted the PC. No error on startup. The game was tested between each steps. Same error. Some other user on reddit seemed to have the same problem since yesterday. I recently did a windows 10 reinstall.SolvedTHEdarkkman20 hours agoNew Traveler86KViews12likes89Commentsbest way to get into contact about getting an account that was hacked
so about a couple of weeks ago i was trying to get into battlefield 2042 and when i would play for a bit it would crash and i thought it was something in the files and i verified it through steam because i bought the game on steam. and when i opened the ea launcher i noticed that i was logged out and i tried to log back on but it said to send a code to a random email and i tried to reset my password in another way but nothing. then after i tried for days to try to get it back to at least unlink the account off my steam because i cannot play any other games since my steam is linked with the account.15Views0likes1CommentDisabling HUD in portal experience will also remove the real HUD from vehicles
Product: Battlefield 2042 Platform:PC Please specify your platform model. PC AMD or Nvidia Model Number RX 6900 XT Enter RAM memory size in GB 32 Are you using any software with an overlay? No Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer Which part of the mode? Conquest Please select your region Europe On which server did this happen? Happens on any server. When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Always happens. Summarize your bug When you disable the HUD in a portal gamemode configuration, that will also disable all vehicle interfaces making it impossible to aim. How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%) Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a a new portal experience, it does not matter which template you choose. Go to the User Interface section under Modifiers and disable the HUD switch, then host the experience and enter any vehicle. What happens when the bug occurs? The vehicle HUD is not displayed, making it impossible to aim and even drive or fly some vehicles properly. What should be happening instead? The vehicle HUD should be displayed. The vehicle HUD is part of the real world an should not disappear even if you choose to play without HUD for hardcore experiences. Please also consider adding an option force first person in vehicles since third person makes no sense without a HUD to aim with, and there should be no third person view in hardcore modes anyways.204Views0likes2CommentsSecurity Violation: DiscSoftLTD

Error code: 1:86001S:66003S:-4688822970:0B
Facing an error code while trying to login through steam: 1:86001S:66003S:-4688822970:0B. EA help redirected me to this forum. Any solutions? Also, I found this reddit thread facing same issue :https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/16ugxg0/connection_error_ps5_186001s66003546888229700b/4.6KViews0likes20CommentsHearing enemies is impossible
It's impossible for me to hear any enemies. Even if I'm standing 100 meters away from all the action and an enemy runs up behind me I still can't hear them. This issue isn't as bad with vehicles, but tanks for example are also often way too quiet unless they are directly on me. This issue somehow resolves itself when I'm dead and I can hear everything perfectly fine, but while I'm alive I can't hear enemy footsteps at all. A few days ago I asked about this on reddit and was told that nobody else has this problem. Since then I've reinstalled the game, deleting all the files in the process and redoing all the settings, etc. This obviously did not resolve the sound issue. Now I don't know if this is actually a bug or just some messed up setting, but since resetting the settings didn't resolve it idk what else to do. If nobody else is having the same issue it also can't just be that the game still has awful footstep audio.call_me_ShockZz3 days agoNew Traveler654Views2likes6CommentsBanned account
I've also posted this in the general discussion but thought I would share it here also to potentially have some sort of response: My account was randomly banned on Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 2042. I wanted to go back to these games after having fun playing the BF6 beta. Last time I played Battlefield 1 was towards the end of 2023, but after trying to sign to play in August of this year I was notified that my account has been banned from playing on July 1st. I honestly didn't think this was a massive issue as I had 2042 I could still play. I was able to play 2042 for maybe 2-3 days before I got another message saying that I was banned from 2042 as well. I appealed both bans through EA help only to have my Battlefield 1 appeal closed, their reasoning was "this is a duplicate of an existing appeal" and I can't resubmit. My appeal for 2042 was also denied. I asked for reasoning as to why the account was banned, the best they came up with was "Violating User Agreement" or using "Gameplay Enhancements". I've asked that if they have the means, please review my gameplay for the proof that I have not used any exploits or cheats of any kind. I never use in game chat and exclusively talk with my friends through discord. The appeal was denied again. "We have received your most recent correspondence expressing concerns about the action that was taken on your account. After thoroughly investigating your account and concern, we again found that we actioned your account correctly after it was found to have violated our User Agreement. We will also be unable to provide any details regarding our internal procedures. Due to this violation, we will not remove the sanction that was applied to your account." I refuse to buy Battlefield 6 because of this. Absolutely no specific reason was given to what I have done to violate their terms. If anyone else has had a similar experience and had it rectified please let me knowStradeZ3 days agoRising Novice298Views1like10CommentsEA Play membership not being honoured
I have an EA Play membership, courtesy of XBox PC Game Pass. There are no problems with that service, I have played other games connected through that service with no issue. Battlefield 2042 however is giving me issues. When I load up EA App on PC, it does not recognise my active membership. I am treated as if I do not have a membership when trying to play Battlefield 2042. It says "trial expired, 0hrs remaining". Elsewhere in the same EA App though, it does show "current membership" in the table of differences between EA Play & EA Play Pro, indicating it knows I do have a membership. Also, my online account at ea.com shows my membership has been active since 2021.

All 4 of these cases I've sought help on the same issue & gotten nowhere, just ended up wasting my time and being let down by how poor the EA customer support experience is. The two support staff who provided the most help were Ajit & Robin. Robin was the closest to getting my issue fixed, it seemed like they'd actually discovered what the cause was-- but were unable to do anything about it. Can someone with authority please please look into this issue & resolve whatever back-end problem is leaving BF2042 on my account in a state of limbo?SolvedShootyqt3 days agoSeasoned Novice103Views0likes6CommentsVery bad performance on BF42 and BF6
Hello ! I have a huge problem of performance on this two games, on BF42 my performance are worst than the first time i played it with my old CPU (5600X) and 16 GB of DDR4 than my new setup. I experience stutter, my fps drop sometime to 45 fps on both game, and i have a maximum of 90 fps on both. 130/140 fps in menu. When i see on youtube people on ultra 1440P with the same config having 100fps while i have it in low/medium on both game Here's a video : https://youtu.be/jbcaSw2NQfI My config : 9800x3D RTX 3080 64GB DDR5 6000 MT/S NVME MP700 14 000 MO/S As you can see on the video : BF6 and BF42 > I've put Lowest preset setting possible + lowest resolution possible + dlss performance ultra = 90 fps on both ~~ DLSS Performance Ultra + Lowest resolution is equivalent to play the game at a resolution of 240x180 or something like that i think. BF V > Ultra preset setting + 2K + No DLSS+ DXR = 90 fps Okay the game is old, but i have NO DLSS, the game is in 1440P not in 640x800, If i optimize the game a little in settings i can get 130/140 fps easely. So i have the SAME fps than BF42 and BF6 WITH DLSS on LOW QUALITY than on BFV with NO DLSS and ULTRA QUALITY and DXR. And i have similar performance than people having the same config than me on BFV, it's only with BF42 and BFV that is worst. And if i put my BF6 on balance quality mode i get around 60 fp s with big stutter and drops of fps below 45 fps Same for BF42 it runs really bad. I tried Do benchmark with Superposition/3DMark for GPU/ Cinebench 24 for CPU, i have a normal score I tried to install a new windows (11) on an other SSD and try with a completely fresh installation : the EA Overlay enable tips, doesn't work i tried uninstalling both time my gpu driver with DDU, no internet and windows update disabled, do nothing i tried disabling resizable bar, do nothing. I tried installing NVIDIA DRIVER 577 and 566.36 : Same issue Please, I'm desperate. I know that some people's games are running better than ever, but that's not the case for me and some people. I don't know why, and I haven't found any solution whatsoever. What's more, I only have this problem with these two games! Please help EA.Ayting694 days agoSeasoned Newcomer158Views0likes2CommentsWeird death glitch
So I got killed and hit revive. After seeing it wasn't going to happen in time I hit the button to die. That annoying flatline noise was stuck on and I wouldn't die. I tried several times but just laid there for 5 full minutes doing the princess wave and then someone revived me.
