The state of Bipods in BF6

I’m an avid LMG player and have always loved playing support and laying down suppressing fire for my squad and team.

Ever since 2142 I’ve picked this to be my most enjoyable play style, and I know I’m not alone! Having a bipod that is effective makes this a far more enjoyable experience.

Bipods in BF6 sadly are quite awkward and I feel need a bit of a rework. Personally I feel the way they worked in BF1 was perfect. But at the least I feel as though having an auto deploy feature as long as you have toggled the bipod (much like a laser or torch) is what we need.

Only being able to deploy the bipod after ADS is clunky and I have noticed that the deploy is very inconsistent in BF6. Especially as LMGs tend to have a long ADS time this can become very cumbersome when wanting to quickly deploy and start shooting.

Some surfaces refuse to allow the bipod to deploy, ledges and windows have all given me issues, in places I think a bipod would be effective and I’d assume they would work easily. 

It may seem like a small issue, but it’s at the core of LMG gameplay for support and would also help out DMRs and rifle players too.

Please up this so it can get some recognition ! 
Thanks :)

  • I main LMGs and am having fun.  I agree BF1 was great.  I normally don't use the bipod because it makes me a target.  How do you deploy it, which key?

    Thanks.

    I have mine bound to a button on my mouse. I use the bipod quite a bit, especially when a lot of my team is around. You tend not to get instantly targeted then! Cheers
