Bring back solo / coop Mode
I’m sure this has been brought up before, but this game really needs to bring back solo and co-op mode with half XP progression. I don’t get to play that much anymore, but when I do, I would prefer t...

Community ManagerMantis50 Hey,
Appreciate the feedback on this one. Tell me more about this co-op and how this would work in BF? I'm always a fan of the co-op if it works out right.
What do you mean tell you more? Many of us, like myself, bought BF6 to play solo / coop through the verified modes in Portal. Only after two weeks it was shut down because of the xp farming. Punishing the honest pve / coop players over this. Removed the static bots and made it a minimal of 4 players to start a map. Also removed progression. You can easily prevent xp farming by enforcing the bots to not be able to spawn without weapons (must have at least one primary weapon selected in the options is a possible solution for one). The game is not playable for many of us anymore. Elderly, disabled and fathers with kids that got locked out of the game because of this A very unpopular and I must think, poor financial decision. As these people will not be buying extras for the game. So, please, after many many request, make the verified modes solo / coop with static bots again and watch your community grow larger again and I and others will play it again and maybe buy some items once more.

Something like BF3 co-op missions for example.

AcidryzeN Ahh yes. I remember doing these to get the MP7 unlocked if I remember correctly. I would not mind seeing this again.
Yeah, I really liked it!
Hello,
We are just asking EA to include a Solo/Coop mode pretty similar to what we have in BF2042.
I think, actually, It would work outside portal... Directly in the main menu of the game.
So, it means, we will be able to play matches against bots with our friends or alone. We would be able to select bot skills... Selects the desired map and simply play a conquest or breakthrough...

lfslopes So, it's kind of like the server maps where you set up specific rules for everyone, but now including bot behavior?

I'm talking about a straightforward solo/co-op mode, exactly like what we have in BF2042. In the same official experiences tab, we could have this option to play solo or with friends against bots on the same maps that are available for the conventional multiplayer mode.
EA_Shepard Hi,
What players like myself have been pretty much looking for, is the same exact solo/co-op mode that you had in BF2042. You could play all of the online multiplayer maps, either by yourself, or with a few friends in a squad. This also gave players full progression, so they could enjoy the entirety of the multiplayer content, but in a closed environment with just AI bots / friends. I think adding this mode back in would bring a lot of players back to the game. You could even incorporate this mode into REDSEC and I think it would be great.

Mantis50 It seems to be growing in want. I was always a co-op person with friends, but not so much with randos online, but I see a huge value in a game like this. It is one of those things you have to be careful about, too, though. You may have a handful of players who like it, but the ones who make the most noise are those who do not.
A perfect example: I watch the chat in videos for reveals, updates, and road maps for a lot of games. Some of them, for a good 2 straight minutes, are saying, "Nobody asked for this," and there's a lot of negative feedback. We all know that is expected, so in something like co-op, if it isn't done right, it could backfire. I'd play a lot more of it if I had time. Skip the lines, no busy servers, bots, or people I don't want to play with. Just a couple of friends wreaking havoc on a map and having fun.
