Can you add 16 vs 16 like in BC 2?
For instance, in Rush mode, there would be a Helicopter for the last objective for the defenders just like in Port Valdez. Atacama Desert had 16 vs 16 conquest with helicopters and tanks...

Cyborg_Reaper I completely agree with you. Rush was honestly at its best in Bad Company 2, BF3, and BF4.
It’s a bit disappointing because in BF6, it really feels like Rush has been pushed aside and doesn’t get much attention anymore. Back then, it was one of the flagship modes of Battlefield. Now it feels more like a secondary mode that doesn’t receive the same level of care.
There are also some clear balance issues between vehicles and infantry on certain maps, which doesn’t help the experience. And that’s not even mentioning the new Contaminated map not having Rush at all — which is a shame, because I genuinely think it could work really well for that mode.
I also think going back to the previous player count, like 16 vs 16, would be a very good move. It made matches more readable, more tactical, and gave each player more impact.
Rush still has a lot of potential, but right now I think part of the reason it’s less popular is simply because it lacks attention in terms of balancing and innovation.

QcR4ptor As long as I can remember, rush has always been a solid one with players. It has it's potential if enough players put in that feedback on it, it gets more eyes. Will it change is different, but with games like this, shifting focus is harder when it's what we want vs what isn't working in a technical sense.
EA_Shepard I understand that shifting focus isn’t always easy, especially with technical constraints.
Rush has always been my favorite mode in Battlefield, and that’s why I care about it so much.
I don’t think it necessarily needs a full rework to feel better. Sometimes small targeted changes can make a big difference.
For example:
– Bringing back 16v16 playlists for certain maps
– Adjusting vehicle count depending on the sector
– Making sure all new maps support Rush (like Contaminated)
These kinds of changes wouldn’t completely shift the game’s focus, but could significantly improve the experience and bring more players back to the mode.
Rush has always been one of Battlefield’s most iconic modes, and I really think it deserves more consistent support.

QcR4ptor That is what we want too. We want more of us out there playing, so it becomes a more enjoyable and manageable experience for the game. Rush is iconic mode to say the least.
