Re: Security Requirements on BF6 on PCs!

I am experiencing a bug where it says that i dont have secureboot enabled. When i turn it on in bios i cant get out of the bios. I can get back only if i discard any changes to the bios settings. I didnt have any issues on pre alpha testing. Could somebody help me please?

    Good to know I won't be purchasing the game, I'm not bricking my dual boot system (As the game isn't allowed to run on Linux either). Will the next anti-cheat update require approved hardware by EA in order to run the game? Maybe force players to hire a EA approved referee to make sure the players are not cheating.

    Just finding out about this requirement. I have never had to enable secure boot to play a video game and I don't want to risk my computer. This really sucks

    It's absurd, there is zero evidence this does anything to prevent cheating, certainly didn't with 2042 when you tried to force it on players. 

    I won't be purchasing, as I'm sure many others won't either. EA levels of laziness and shoving the issue onto the player instead of creating an intelligent server-side solution (THE ONLY TRUE SOLUTION FOR CHEATING) is idiotic, but not surprising given it's EA. 

    Tell your dudes up the ladder they are screwing the pooch.

    I just preloaded open beta. Now reading all this and that I need to change my BIOS settings jeopardizing stability of my system I made a conclusion that BF6 is a pass. Good job EA. Such requirements are in my experience unprecedented and no game I played ever required this. This is absurd.

    After speading 2 hours yesterday trying to change the bios on my system due to your dire requirements are you going to pay to repair bill and replacement parts for everyone short answer is no. Not for a 60 pound game i was really looking forward for this but now I have uninstall the beta and buying something else

    Thanks

    This can't be real. I've never had to change a BIOS setting for a game. Are they working on fixing this before early access tomorrow? Thanks

    Did you play Call of Duty?!..Think again they put today a info that to play the new session you need also Secure Boot and TPM 2.0...and also Microsoft put info that you need this also for the future of Windows...so dont blame EA

    I have been playing video games all my life. Now, thanks to Secure Boot, I'm not.

    Please DO NOT disable the secure boot feature. I'm tired of encountering cheaters in a game I've (will be) investing significant money into.

    Needs to be disabled. It doesnt stop cheaters at all in any way shape or form. If you think it does, youre brainwashed.
