They HEAVILY marketed BF6 with Portal and a PVE experience with full XP, we now don't have that anymore.
I will be filing a formal complaint with the Advertising Standards Authority within the EU.
This article contains the specific marketing promise. It states, "One of the biggest changes coming to Battlefield 6 is that players will earn EXP no matter where they play, including in Portal creations..." It then introduces the two categories: "Verified Experiences where we know there is limited risk for exploits. Those get the traditional progression." This is the promise of "traditional progression" (full XP) for modes that, at launch, were understood to include PvE with bots.

This post directly acknowledges the complaint. It states that "a large number of these servers were created primarily to earn XP... through defeating bots." It then announces the "adjustments" (the nerf) to "diminish the number of XP farms." This post is EA's own admission that PvE bot farming with XP was possible at launch and that they actively took steps to remove it, which is the core of your issue.

Relevant marketing materials related to Portal/PVE.
Do you have a link for the EU complaint? I'll file as well. I bought the game because of PvE progression in Portal, and they changed it, broke the advertising promise, I want a refund too.
