The General state of Battlefield 6 (2042 1.2)
I would be ok with this game if it was the 2042 beta. I mean it's the same build just without flying squirrels. It has the same bugs, the same weird gunplay and the same weird art style. That game released 4 years ago and they still haven't figured it out. That makes me certain it ain't going to happen, why? Because they don't care, that's today's climate.. it's literally the same bugs, the same issues over and over again, every single launch since BFV. Like wth is actually going on?
Before anyone sais it is a skill issue let me say this. I've been playing battlefield since 1942 I consistently drop 30-50 kills in older titles like BF1 and BF4 (today), always PTFO. I've been playing FPS games since OG Doom so I know how to set up my games and hardware properly.
Battlefield is an objective based game except for as far as I know one mode that is tdm. The issue is that almost every attachment, map design and general mechanic is based on a stationary play style. Every map has 10-15 cupboard, cracks or crevasses that creates an equal amount of angles to camp an objective. Not even top tier green berets would accept a mission with those odds. So this game that evolves around pushing and capturing objectives is catered towards camping unpushable angles. This literally kills the flow of the gameplay while catering a slow and toxic style of gameplay. It doesn't matter if I utilise every attachment and ability that makes you less visible on the map, as soon as you fire your weapon you're getting beemed from 3+ angles that are impossible to cover, by players you can't even see visually. The outcome of all this is that you have to play the game like a tactical mil sim. Conclusion, you've successfully killed the Battlefield experience.
The gunplay is a lottery.
The sensitivity and mouse feel is totally different depending on what game mode your playing.
Every time I start a new round I get to play the same map.
My PC reebots every now and then mid round(many people have this issue) Over been running hardware monitor and the logs shows nothing out of the ordinary.
The lvl of camping is pure toxic.
Someone sat on the saturation button before releasing the California map so it looks like Fortnite.
70 ton tanks can roll up on you without a single sound.
The visibility is really bad (if you dont have a $6-7k PC. With or without SOVIS) Its almost impossible to spot enemies that are more than 50-60 meters away. The color pallet makes everything blend together like a blurr.
No server browser even though that has been a standing topic since forever.
The challenges forces you to play in weird ways that has nothing to do with the class in question.
The options menu is flooded with settings but not the settings you actually want to change. Just going through the menus is a hassle since they are so incredibly overworked and cluttered with excessive information. Why even put that much time into something that has minimal impact on the game? Unless you make something that should be simple and clear incredibly advanced and messy. Then it makes you experience worse. Why? It's not reasonable looking at it from any perspective. Cost, time, consumer experience...
The net code is way off, hit reg is a pure lottery.
The movement bugs are game breaking. People jumping and bouncing agros your screen all the time..
The rooftops that you can't accessed from the ground need to be out of bounds since camping is already rampant.
The helicopters take zero skill and mow down infantry in half a frame.
They've practically ruined sniping with one simple tool(range finder)that takes away every skill element needed.
There's yellow dots infesting the whole menu showing you there's new unlocks but when you've clicked 13 buttons to get there there's nothing, but the yellow dot is still present of course (this is 100% something carried over by a former cod dev). You unlock stuff that can be used for all weapons but you can't open locked weapons to remove the yellow marker.
Settings randomly resets each time you start the game. One is the sovis filter which is incredibly irritating since you can't spot enemies when it's off. Another is menu narration which is just as annoying.
All keybinds have been reset after installing the latest "patch" 11-18-2025
The list goes on and on but I don't care to state the obvious yet another time, what I've mentioned here is just the game breaking stuff I've noticed after a couple of hours of gameplay. The streamers get paid to push the product and the consumers gulp it down. DICE is not what it once was and no matter how hard I try to enjoy this game I can't, I really really want to but I can't. This experience is not enjoyable at all.
You have been handed the keys to the biggest and most successful FPS franchise in human history and somehow managed to **bleep** up every single aspect of it. That is truly a feat worth saluting, hats of to all of you involved in the biggest failure in gaming history. Y'all should be ashamed.
