What the heck has happened to BF6!?

What a kick in the nuts. What has happened to this game!? The beta was great and drew me in big time. At 53 with family and work I can't spend hours sweating the game to unlock stuff and get good. Me and my daughter LOVED the solo and Co-op bots mode on 2042, it was perfect for us more relaxed gamers. This has now GONE! So the game moves forward in graphics, but backwards in accessibility.

Now, after paying £70 for the game it has a free to play mode that you have to play to get achievements. Really? This is not the battlefield I paid for. I hate the adverts and the aggressive push towards this battle royale now. What a kick in the nuts. No doubt the skins promise will be ignored next and you will have some half arsed twatish celeb running about. It's killing games.

It can be fixed, you put the battle royale as a separate game to the main game. You put the crappy battle pass adverts with it. You re- introduce Solo and Co-op with a 50% XP speed. This will help the portal too with extra server space.

Please sort this out EA. It's become a bit of a joke now. Or you could give me my money back as your portal bots promise has been broken already.....

  • I have posted similar, at 62 I bought the game for solo with bots. Have all COD games and play private matches with just bots and works well. EA/DICE have just made Battlefield 6 useless as we cannot do the same and I will not be playing with young players that kill me in seconds and current experiences possible with bots just spawn in one place, dont use the map and act - two bot teams just walk to each other shooting.

    This needs sorted ASAP or provide significant compensation to purchasers as they have removed features that were there to make the game now not really even a game!

  • I know, it so frustrating. The AI for the bots was superb in 2042. They would go to points when ordered, revive you etc. The opposite team would use vehicles and take opposing points. It's was sometimes like playing with real players but at a more manageable pace.

    Blows my mind that this has been removed. That's what I mean by being less accessible. A real step backwards. EA just bangs on about "the moments are best against other players". Yeah, if you are a sweaty grinder. What the heck was wrong with being able to play leisurely and enjoy the game, learning the maps and vehicles whilst upgrading your weapons as you go? I really dont get it.

     Everyone is moaning about the portal servers being useless due to the bot farms, well just put Conquest and Rush as solo or co-op and reduce the stress on the servers! How is this a bad thing? Doing the 50% XP for solo and co-op will mean all the sweats that dont have a family or job commitments can crack on at full XP rate and leave us older ( and with more disposable income) players to enjoy the game at our pace. Do any development actually read these forums? What a waste of 70 quid.

    PC player here. I have to state this as it seems console and pc players have different views. 

    I enjoyed the beta of the game. (apart from the insane movement) 

    However, every update since has some how made the game worse.

    I felt BF6 would bring the communities back again, player hosted servers etc, join up with friends etc. 
    Portal was a let down, again, that was before they nerfed the baby jesus out of it. 

    TTK feels off as a pc player, but in beta it didnt.

    Knowing what EA knew with battlefield 2042, why didn't they have any contingencies ready for if the bot farming issue came up again in Battlefield 6, instead of it seems they where oblivious that this could happen again, instead hit the panic button, killing the game not only for bot farming, but also legitimate game players.

    BF6 retail plays the same as the beta to me apart from some minor tweaks to movement speed which seems a little slower, maybe, but I prefer that.

    I live in Australia so we often have matches with majority bots due to the broken, not fit for purpose Matchmaking, so I can understand being unhappy about the solo mode missing, as we kind of still have it in Australia! 

    Seems strange to still have bots but not include solo play.

    However I'm still having a great time playing a new battlefield game.

  • DICE don't want us Battledads in the game as we don't spend pocket money on skins
