Hmmm… wonder why players are leaving..

DICE crapped down the throats of BF veterans with all the tiny COD boi maps, BR bull crap, and other non BF game modes. Then they linked  challenges, Battlepass and skins that require these crap game modes. Crappy game modes that BF veterans have ZERO interest in playing. 

 So now that all the COD boys, BR enthusiasts and Fortnite kids are slowly but surely leaving the game for COD and the newest games, like BF veterans knew they would, DICE is stuck with what’s left. 

So what now DICE? I bet you double down on selling out to the Fortnite kids and COD bois.

There are 20 nice looking skins that require BR and Gauntlet game modes. These are 20 skins I’ll never unlock because I absolutely hate BR and hate Gauntlet!!. I could be working towards these 20 skins over the Holidays if I could work toward these skins on traditional large BF maps and traditional BF game modes(Conquest mostly). 

Add insult to injury, DICE made the tiniest, most COD style map, REQUIRED for the 4 new skins and the holiday Battlepass event. 

Let’s not fail to mention the 85 official game modes and all I want to play is Conquest versus ACTUAL HUMAN BEINGS. Instead I get placed into an empty server, wait 5 minutes for 10 other players, and the match starts with 10 humans and 54 bots. Then if I do finish a match that actually has 64 humans, when the match ends the “system” sends 64 players to 64 different empty servers and the process repeats endlessly. 

With the same disrespect you’ve show to long time BF players, I offer you the same that you’ve offered to us DICE, as in go effe yourselves.

Focus on what’s makes Battlefield, Battlefield. Stop with the cheesy tactics trying to force us to play these dog poop game modes like BR and tiny COD maps for Battlepass and skin unlocks when all we want to do is play BATTLEFIELD(Conquest Large, Breakthrough, Rush).

We see right through your underhanded ploys to push unwanted game modes and to prop up player numbers in BR and other gimmicky COD boi game modes and COD boi maps via requiring these game modes and tiny maps for Battlepass and certain skins. It’s insulting and we see what you’re trying to do!!! 

And last but not least, FFS!!. Please give players proper Battlefield MAP ROTATIONS and persistent servers, with a proper SERVER BROWSER, with lobbies FULL OF HUMANS that carry over to the next match like we see in BF3, BF4, BF1 and BF5.

    Click Filter. Click Maps & Modes. Select Conquest, Rush, and Breakthrough checkboxes (and Battle Royale, if you are odd). Apply. Presto, only full progression servers are listed.

    I will make sure to try that. But I am pretty sure people can make Conquest, Rush and Breakthrough into modified XP.

  • I recently went back to play bf3 and bf4 because I can't stand how CoD-esque this "battlefield" is and the difference is ABYSMAL. I don't know in what world they took "inspiration" from these titles because I don't see anything of them in BF6. We were just rugpulled by the marketing teams. This is a blatant CoD copy, not many differences if u compare this to Modern Warfare's "ground war" gamemode or just normal CoD MW.

  • I've not gone out of my way to complete any battle pass stuff, didn't even buy it.

    I just play the game, not even bothered about skins anymore.

    Conquest is a mess so I just play domination and play the game for what it is but it could be so much more.

    Too much emphasis on fake content (battle pass), I literally hate the main menu, it looks horrendous.

    No closed weapon conquest just sucks big time.

    The conquest maps are too narrow.

    Weapon balance is bad.

    It's really hard to tell what class an enemy is unless they use the base soldier skins.

    Bunny hopping and sliding looks stupid, most people bunny hop and slide into a room.

    Spawns are really bad, never been spawn killed this much in all previous battlefield games combined.

    Hit reg is dog mess, pumping entire mags into people and getting all the hit markers in the world but they run off or turn around and vaporise you.

     

    If I am honest the only thing keeping me playing is levelling up my guns, I'm really happy it is spread out the way it is and gives me a nice gradual pace of progression without unlocking everything and having nothing to work towards.

    Don't get me wrong I have fun playing the game for what it is but it isn't really battlefield.

    I don't think so. They should either be verified-mode with full XP, or custom. Custom doesn't list as conquest, rush, or breakthrough, even though they try to mimic it. And verified-mode has too many guardrails now push it out into something else. I could be wrong, but I don't think I have seen verified-mode with modified XP since EA worked through the whole bot farm problem and created guardrails.

    I have specualted that EA could better define what an "official' server feels like and add that checkbox option (maybe even as a default); as it would maybe encourage more people to use community servers. But at what cost? It would drive even less traffic towards creators or communities who want something different, and would stifle what EA has otherwise encouraged. It's tricky.

    Few people use community servers because few other people use them. Even though they solve all the matchmaking issues people hate, and are now 60 hz, everyone stands in the shadows looking at the empty dance floor. The only people who don't care are PvE players who don't want to play with a lot of other people anyway.

    Well... credit where credit is due. Your idea to filter only CQ, BR and Rush has allowed me to find Full progress servers in portal

    The filters still need to be better though. For example it would help if we could filter servers to show both the full ones and those who have X number of players minimum

  • The server browser just does not produce any games with people playing. It doesn't matter if I leave all filters uncheck, the results are always empty servers. It's sad and frustrating.
