BF6 Ruined by recent patch Due to a fan base fixated on the past.
Feel free to deflect by calling me a COD player, but Ive been playing since late BFBC2 but genuinely loved the battlefield franchise after playing BF3. Best movement, and balancing, (In my opinion THE GOAT)
Battlefield 6 has A LOT going on at once, with tanks, helicopters, launchers, Also many players hiding out in bushes, using many gadgets for locating players, and this time with the maps not being so big its even more hectic.
Even with the movement being what many Uncs called “too fast” or “floaty” it was still very difficult to survive, I say that as someone who would utilize the slide and speed to push through difficult and one-sided situations, but in that very challenge It was what I loved the most about BF6. I didnt care about winning, i didnt care about a spree, I cared about an experience.
Thats what it was… or atleast I thought. “Hey theres gonna be a lot going on but heres this level of movement to navigate through it” and i was like alright bet, obviously a soldier doesnt move like this IRL but this is a video game, any nerd with a problem with it that wants reality, you could send em a link to actually go serve in the military. ANYWAY
With the recent update Ive seen that the devs completely took that Vital element of what made BF6 unique away, for it can feel a lot more like THE PAST, or should i say previous games. Due to a certain side of the fanbase that im not sure if they were playing the same game as me but were complaining about the movement speed that in my eyes gave players a right amount of speed for navigation through a hectic battlefield.
The uncs already took this game, I doubt its ever going back to what it was. So im genuinely moving on from the game. So to the Uncs that got what they wanted, Enjoy Bf6! Have players run super slow so you can just camp like you probably all were to begin with anyway, and snipe them! Or whatever it was you were failing to do before the movement patch.
The future is the future. And im sure BF wants to stay in business. And a game with movement speed that allows players to interact with the battlefield more frequently and creatively is the way to go… if its too hectic? Maybe just lower the number of players in a game? Just dont make us run like turtles like you just did with this recent patch.
Well Bf6 was an amazing game, I loved coming to it to have a good 3 to 5 rounds after work. Seeing that the uncs got what they wanted, ill just find something else to play. But my two cents on this patch is, I cant push anymore, I cant flank anymore, I cant do anything but get sniped or gun down by someone hiding in the bushes or corner with their squad… im assuming this was the type of players Battlefield Developers preferred to cater to? I guess.
Ill for sure now just wait atleast 3 months from now on before buying a battlefield game, to not be stuck with something I wasn't promised in the beta, and or early official release.
