Gadget Unlock Grind Is Way Too Harsh for New Players

Hello DICE ,

After playing Battlefield 6 for about 10 days, I’ve noticed that the unlock requirements for gadgets are a bit too demanding — and it’s making the early experience rough for new players. Here’s why:

Battlefield is about variety.

The fun of using rocket launchers, grenade launchers, UAVs, and mine throwers is a core part of what makes Battlefield unique. These should be accessible early so newcomers can experience the full sandbox instead of grinding for hours before the game really opens up.

The Assault class feels confusing at first.

Starting with a shotgun (and less ammo) easily confuses new players who don’t yet understand how ammo and weapon systems work. I’ve already seen quite a few posts asking why they keep running out of ammo so fast.

Breakthrough attackers need better tools.

Without key gadgets — especially smoke grenades for Assault — attacking teams are at a clear disadvantage. That makes the mode frustrating and discourages new players from sticking around.

Also, a small side note: please consider adding a Simplified Chinese + English voice-over option. Right now I have to switch to Traditional Chinese just to keep English VO, which feels unnecessary.

Hope you guys keep listening to community feedback and makes Battlefield welcoming again. The series is at its best when new players keep joining — that fresh energy keeps the game alive and thriving.

Thanks for reading.😄
