It's not until you've played it for a good amount of hours that you know for sure the problems aren't 'you' and the get a full feel for the direction of the game.
It's not until recently that EA/DICE admit to all the bugs and start destroying Portal.
I had my hope and faith in the franchise crushed by the fiasco of BF5 and the awfulness of BF2042 and all the BS around both from EA/DICE, but the BF6 beta and all the talk of 'return to form' and 'grounded in realism' sucked me in.
More fool me, I guess.
I've played 150+ hours now and find I'm constantly disappointed by bugs, bad design, missing features (that were even in the terrible BF2042), etc.
If it weren't for the fact my RL friends have bought it too and want to keep playing on a Friday night I would probably also try and refund on the basis of broken promises and broken game.
I certainly can't recommend it to anyone.
We'll see what the patch brings, but it will not change the fact that BF6 is so welcoming and comfy for 'players of other franchises' and how detrimental that is to the experience that long time franchise fans want.
