The challenge to have to capture zones is absurd. I've had only 2 games out of many where I was in on the attacking side to be able to do captures. It is rediculous, the game mode is a drag as it is but to put it specific to capture and then make you roll the dice on whether you're on attack or not is just plain dumb and needs to be redone.
This is an annoyance of mine that seems to pop up in almost every triple-A shooter nowadays. It's the reason I quit playing Halo Infinite, and if it sticks around it'll be the reason I stop playing BF6. I love shooter game challenges, but when there's any substantial luck involved (50% chance to waste 20 minutes!), I'm out.
An update, the custom selection for rush and breakthrough defender or attacker tends to be serial. like I was serial attacker for 3 games (after 4 set d-fence), then next 8 (had infamous continue count down forever screen) came just after starting queue, and was at 14. Then next set of was twice. Even on attacker its iffy due to some teams having cracked / skilled players that literally walk through squads. It took 5 hours, but just to let ya'll know.
yesterday's post:
The problem is you only get credit while on attacker. And you only get it if your team caps both A and B (breakthru) or rush (bomb detonation A and B)
Then the following compounding issue was breakthrough was nerfed. On early access and first weekend they had a breakthrough mode selection and it mainly did cairo but at least you got basically 50% defender or attacker.
For second beta, now, with mode selection had rush for like one day and no breakthrough (thursday). Today the mode selection it has neither rush nor breakthrough, and the only way is the custom option.
I think the custom option is broken, out of 20 games in rush OR breakthrough, I only had 2 that were attacker, one rush and one breakthrough, and we only got one sector each. The rest were defender on breakthrough. I only got Rush once this morning since I found out about the options. Since I'm on defender, I kept noticing same user names on the attacker side (and the attacking side tended to group up and took sectors, and were good, like one guy could clear out squad) . To add to this is it takes 5 mins + to join a game but few times it was faster.
The third issue is some of gaming media said Dice is fixing rush, so that's why its less. Or maybe it could be everyone in the game is on those two modes . . .
I hope they fix it for the weekend, and have breakthrough and rush modes. I got frustrated and started playing conquest.
Probably the only headache of the game so far . . . well outside the shotgun meta (I think its op since ppl can bean you across 2 blocks with it, maybe its the slug ammo unlock?) or the two shot meta of certain guns + attachment.
I remember the older Battlefields when rush and breakthrough were turn based and the winner being the best 2 out of 3. Going 6 games as defender especially with this challenge is literally a turn off.
By far the worst challenge, I'm on day 3 of weekend 2 only playing rush and breakthrough and I've had 4 attack games in 3 days
Couldn't agree more
Same problem here, having 12 out of 15 so just need 3 to complete the challenge.
Since yesterday afternoon i try to get on a Breakthrough/Rush server on attacking side. Finally i quitt all the games i am getting in because of defenders side.
This is not good, sometimes waiting for minutes for one match and waisting game/lifetime.
Not being able to see if there are any servers free is a bad choice from EA.
This is why i want a serverbrowser.
Today i tried for 90min and only one time being put on attackers side in Rush. Happilly we won ....
Now left frustrated the game...
Currently neither game mode is available. It's the last challenge I've got left and I've no option to complete it. As you said if your on the Defending side in Rush you have no option to take a Sector and score in the challenge. When Rush was on the it was either a case of getting steam rolled while defending or not on the Attacking side not capturing Sectors because your entire side decided to go Recon and sit there and snipe. So far I've not been in a Side that has captured anything. I have been in Rush and specific objects have been destroyed like Point A has been taken down but then for the rest of the game Point B remained intact, however taking Point A down didn't count towards your challenge. It does feel a bit like I'm being cheated.
