I won't be buying the next Battle Pass

I'm a sucker for battle passes - even if I probably won't use most of the rewards, there's typically at least one or two skins I'm working towards, and can look forward to while grinding instead of following the urge to play something else for variety's sake.

Even though I didn't constantly play Marvel Rivals, RDR2, Fallout 76 or or CoD Warzone, I still was able to complete my battle passes after a few weeks grinding. As it should be - carrot was dangled in front of me, I buy the BP, I pursue and gain my reward.

The battle pass in BF6 is nothing like that. First off, none of the rewards are tempting, aside from one or two skins (frogman, everyone is using it). But my goal remains to complete the pass and get the final items. I've done almost all of the available weekly challenges, and still feel like I'm at less than 50% completion.

I will never be able to complete the pass at this rate, and it's not that there's "too much stuff", it's mostly just fluff, and you need to play far too many hours to slog through it. I'm able to play almost every day, and I'm guessing most people are weekend warriors. If EA fails to deliver the rewards as promised, guess what? You lose a customer.

I'm a sucker for battle passes, but even I can say enough is enough. Respect your customer, or go broke.

    Me too. If S2 would've arrived on schedule, I would have completed the Battle Pass on the last hour of the last day of it.

     

    And to be able to do that, I had to do almost every challenge on the game, having to play the game in a way I didn't wanted too many times. Based on XP, I perhaps won't be half way to complete today.

     

    Obviously I suck at the game, but then I ask, is the Battle Pass only for good players, or players that play 6+ hours/day?

     

    For something I have paid for, that kind of grind and commitment is just not ok for me.

     

    I will buy next battle pass when I complete it, if I ever be able to complete.

    Most people are skipping season 2.

    Games gonna peak for a couple days or weeks and then quickly dip. If current game data projections are true.

     

  • I haven't bought the battle pass because the rewards are frankly rubbish, but it's a piece of cake to complete. Im someone who doesn't play every day or for hours on end when I do (with the odd exception) and I'm only rank 73, so that kinda shows my play time, but I've almost completed the all the battle pass routes. Just do the weekly missions and it's relatively painless.

    I really dont understand why any effort is put to battle passes etc even main thing; gun play is still in poor level.
