Bipods and mounting cover is not well-implemented.

I say this not as a slight, but as genuine praise for BF 2042: the bipod system in 2042 is one of the best parts of the entire game. It is, bar none, the best bipod system I have EVER used in any video game. It is probably a perfect game mechanic; I literally don't know how it could be improved upon. I want BF 2042's bipods in every FPS game I play.

The BF6 bipod (and mounting guns on cover) system is basically nonexistant in comparison. It flat out does not work 95% of the time. It can't be toggled unless you're already ADS for some reason? It has to be toggled for some reason?? (2042 is automatic as long as the bipod is deployed, and it stays deployed even while running) There's almost never a prompt for it. There is no toggle bipod open/closed keybind.

Please, I beg of you, just put 2042's bipod system directly in BF6 with zero changes, and BF6 will be significantly better for it. Don't try to fix what isn't broken, don't mess with perfection.

    Big time Support/LMG guy and definitely agree that this system absolutley sucks.  I am good with the 2042 system.  This having to aim then hit the bipod button is terrible and cumbersome.  Also there are time when lying prone where you cannot aim upwards at all.  Not sure why they "fixed" something that wasn't broke.

    I don't even think I've been able to deploy the bipod while prone at all, only while behind cover, so that's super annoying as well.

  • Also if you play with alternate button layout the mounting doesn't work at all. You instantly pop out of it
