"Casual Breakthrough" is only going to cause more problems than solve.

  1. You're splitting up the player base even more. The whole point of PvE is that there's no humans on the other team. Eventually and mark my words, Casual Breakthrough or whatever Casual modes come to core Battlefield will turn into a sweat-fest just like how Warzone's Casual modes did, and at the same time it will make the core modes worse because there will be less players in those games.
  2. The player base is already massively split because of RedSec. When people in the US and EU complain about the atrocious matchmaker and bot backfill not working in CQC modes that's how you know something's seriously wrong. And for the record, low player count regions have been dealing with these issues SINCE LAUNCH, it's only just been magnified because of RedSec.
  3. It's based on 'Warzone's Casual Battle Royal' mode, the irony however is that Warzone's mode gives FULL XP for anything involving Bots. Why would I waste my time progressing at a snails pace in a game that doesn't respect my $70 premium entry (which had progression against bots that was working fine at launch in Official Matchmaking!) when a F2P game like Warzone has a better implementation that ironically tries to respect your time, lets you just chill and have fun whilst still progressing the game and battle pass at the same rate that everybody else does. Battlefield 6 was supposed to be better, not worse.
  4. People asked for Portal Full XP with bot backfill, why is this not happening. Low player count regions suffer without bot backfill. Instead we're getting modes that are only going to make the game worse because the player base in these regions are only going to further split apart.
  5. These changes have broken bot backfill in Official Matchmaking for CQC modes, games never begin when bot backfill kicks in.

Instead of trying to solve the issue by running in circles and wasting everyone's time and your own money, just make a separate set of Verified Portal modes that give full progression against bots, similar to 2042's Co-op mode. Fix the matchmaking that constantly splits up players. Make the official matchmaking lobbies persistent. And please fix bot backfill in official matchmaking. And make the challenges REASONABLE HOLY HELL!

This issue was amateurishly solved in 2042, yet here we are again. Instead of improving on 2042, we're making it worse. BF6's Progression remains inferior to 2042, and that's a **bleep** travesty to say.

As a result of what is essentially a worse version of 2042's bot backfill and Progression experience, I regret buying Battlefield 6, especially with the knowledge that was possible at launch is no longer possible.

    not sure you guys are understanding, yeas it was working but the system a s awhole got massively abused which, in essence stopped people from using the Portal system, yes, it was a design issue but they shut it down, game has only been out a week ffs, chill out, let them come up with something that caters for most and dela with, all you whiners, you go build a game like this.

    You're actually wrong and it's probably the first time I've ever been able to say that on the internet.

    BF6 is play for play repeating all of 2042's mistakes almost like reading from a script. They knew server capacity was going to be a problem. They know exactly how many servers people would've hosted and even then, there wasn't enough capacity.

    AND STILL NOW, there isn't enough capacity. 

    Not everyone hosts a server either. The whole execution of Portal was the equivalent of them willingly DDOSing themselves.

    What do you want 0 progression and everything unlocked for you?

    Because the challenges don't track half the time. Because getting 200m sniper kills is like trying to grate cheese on a rusty grater with maps this small. Because verified modes were supposed to make it possible.

    And I don't know, because I paid $70? Only to have the way I played the game taken away?

    I don't think the devs thought, hey let's add this challenge but let's give everyone a way to bypass it, no that isn't what verified mode was added for, they didn't add it so everybody could bypass the challenges.

    They do need to fix the ones not tracking right though.

    I like the idea of casual breakthough. I personally would prefer if it had less real player, more bots. This would reduce the time it takes to fill normal maps. I tried a few of the casuals, got my dailys, then went to blackwell conquest and it took like 5 minutes to start because not enough players.
