My biggest concerns for the upcoming Battlefield 6

Absolutely HUUUUGE BF fan here, I've put so many hours into BF on Series X/PS5 and PC over MANY years.

Starting with BF3, I've played every Battlefield, and had some fantastic times on ALL of them, despite 2042 being my least enjoyed, despite it being a MIND BLOWING game - it just was not for me overall.

I would like to air my biggest concerns for BF6.  And they echo my issues with 2042.

1) The maps (we will see...)

2) No map filter (This killed BF 2042 for me).

3) Crossplay - with insufficient Input Based Matchmaking. (just relying on SBMM to sort things out is utterly detestable)

4) SBMM (So Crossplay can exist with insufficient Input Based Matchmaking).

5) No server browser (So SBMM can exist)

6) Performance.

 

These will make or break my time with BF6.  Just like BF 2042, it was such a jaw dropping game in so many ways, and at certain times and on the right maps I had a BLAST, but, due to these issues, for me (and you can NEVER please everyone - that's why we need options/choices with, for example, MAP FILTERS) I fear for the upcoming BF6 game. I am so routing for it though, obviously!

If NOTHING ELSE, a map filter when searching would make the game tolerable. Since, I'm so aware you can't have a server browser with SBMM.

Note: To the team who did BF2042 I can honestly say from an objective perspective it was a masterwork (in many ways) - incredible, and I will always stand by that, but, with art, I'm afraid personal preference and taste dictates success, over technical mastery, often.

    If you're worried about anti-cheat, it might be better to skip all PvP altogether, because nothing will change from what you already know.

    ngl boss I think youre overly worrying about sbmm in battlefield. It HAS to exist in some form to help alleviate constant one sided matches and pubstomping, but because of the larger player counts on the map also has to be very loose to get matches quickly and spread the players around. Look back and youll see that often enough theres a consistent spread of players on both teams that have a few apex dudes, a bunch of ok guys, and a few newbies or folks who are just struggling. Its a tale as old as Halo 2 where it all began with live matchmaking.
