las vegas ands others

Dear Battlefield 6 Development Team,

I am writing to express my serious frustration with the current state of the Vegas map.

The map has become practically unplayable because of suspected cheaters using helicopters.

In many matches, while regular players struggle to achieve just 5–10 kills, certain helicopter players are reaching 90 or more kills. Their helicopters seem almost impossible to shoot down, and they dominate the entire match without facing any meaningful resistance.

This is not normal or enjoyable Battlefield gameplay.

The situation raises serious concerns about cheating, possible exploits, and the effectiveness of your anti-cheat system.

How is it acceptable for a few helicopter players to completely dominate an entire server while everyone else is essentially reduced to target practice?

Whether this is caused by cheating, exploits, or a major balancing problem, the result is the same: the Vegas map is becoming a terrible experience for ordinary players.

We need immediate action:

  • Investigate helicopter players consistently achieving extremely suspicious kill counts.
  • Examine possible invulnerability exploits, damage-registration problems, and cheating.
  • Strengthen anti-cheat detection and enforcement.
  • Ensure helicopters can be effectively countered and destroyed.
  • Restore fair and competitive gameplay on the Vegas map.

I enjoy Battlefield, but situations like this make players want to leave matches or stop playing altogether.

Please investigate this issue seriously instead of allowing a handful of suspicious players to ruin the experience for everyone else.

We deserve fair matches, functional anti-cheat protection, and a game where skill actually matters.

Sincerely,

A Frustrated Battlefield 6 Player

  • This is not a case of cheating.

    This is a very typical case of a perfect storm of conditions that are in favor of the attack helicopter.

    The Map has a lot of cover for the helicopters to hide in
    +
    The  gunner seat can perform just fine while the heli remains in a safe proximity to skyscraper cover.
    +
    There are no jets to hunt fliers
    +
    The gunner seat has a very strong toolkit:
    1) A cannon that can do great damage to both armor and flesh
    2) An AGM that can allegedly lock on up to 800m away and hit even vehicles in the enemy spawn
    3) An "aim assist" that keeps the crosshairs where you were pointing them regardless of where the pilot tries to go. 
    4) Thermal vision that lights up all the soldiers, vehicles and aim guided missiles.

    Easy fix:
    Get the attack heli the hell off Vegas. 
    It is just a Great White Shark inside fish tank full of mackrells in here
    No balance changes needed.

  • The vegas map is horrible and needs to be reworked.  On breakthrough it's next to unplayable, just as bad as tsuru reef. 

    I don't know who is in charge of this kind of stuff, but I think it's time for a personnel change.  Two seasons where a launch map needs to be heavily reworked just to play normally?  This isn't right.

    Actually, I guess hagental still needs a rework.  Since the CoD players love that map so much though they likely won't ever fix it.  Sad.  These could be the best maps.  Beautiful maps.  Back in the day players would say "wow, ea, these maps are so amazing." but they don't anymore.  It's truly a tragedy.

  • The same group of people that do this on Liberation Peak are now also doing it on the Vegas map.

  • I'd like to see the stats for how many times the attack chopper is destroyed on this map compared to the IFV. 

    Neither vehicle should be on this map in my opinion and they should have left it as a medium infantry focused map.

    Besides the cheating: the Vegas map is way to small to have choppers. All they do is fly back and forth, hide behind the buildings, regenerate and come back. It's simply unbelievable they put choppers in this unplayable map. Must be a present to them as AA is buffed so on big maps they have a harder time now (at last after harvesting for a year now).
