Where are BOT only modes at?

Like the title, where is it at? Like in BF2042. That's what I was looking forward to whenever I purchased BF6. I'm not into this PVP only stuff... I'm old and I work all the time.

I'm tired of reporting and blocking players for cheating and harasment. And I swear it seems like some matches there is some kind of damage modifier that's gets applied if you've been doing well that the game doesn't disclose.

I'm tired of quitting matches when my team and I are getting tossed like a ragdoll. I know it sucks for my teammates but I've come to a point where I just quit out of the match if I can't do anything. There's no point in sticking around in a game if I'm not having fun.

  • It's crazy they don't have a solo mode. And just give us full XP for killing bots. Didn't the ad say full progression via Portal? So we should be able to play solo against bots and level up our weapons.

    Initially players WERE able to get pretty good xp but that led to people spamming Portal with just afk farm lobbies that clogged the entire thing with basically junk servers.

    Can't afk farm if the xp isn't really worth it, so they pulled the trigger there and here we are. It's a fickle balance cause if it's TOO attractive then you end up with just farm lobbies and Portal becomes kind of a slop fest instead of a cool custom games and server browser. Make it not worth at all and you stifle mode creativity and shaft players who dont wanna play pure pvp but also wanna level up and progress.

    Try Casual Breakthrough.  It is mostly bots and a lot easier.  I too am old.  Been playing BF and COD from the very beginning.  I still do well but nothing like the good old days.  Even though I get hammered I still enjoy playing with the young guns.  I just try to find ways to help the team, like serving as a medic or engineer.  If you ignore KDR and focus on revives or fixing tanks, it has its own rewards.  I think the developers should give more points for revives and support but even as it is, even though most players don't express enough appreciation, I know it is appreciated when you revive, plant mines, fix stuff, etc.  Here's a great video that demonstrates this appreciation.

  • I really didnt want to react to anything anymore but bro I'm old any working all the time, too. I bought the game, 70 euros, got to play pve on my own terms for about a week. Then came the restrictions. Then you could play some leftover pve portal codes. Had a bit of fun until it was all disabled. Never cheated, just, a beer a smoke and having fun. I would like to have the email adress of the CEO and tell him he and his employees are something thats sometimes upright and acts on instinct. I dont get it. Give us solo able to play fair and maybe well even buy something you ...

    And it just makes me laugh how pvp servers are loaded witj bots while we are asking for the return of pve. World upside down for both pve and pvp players. Crazy.

    It amazes me to think EA/DICE would give up the revenue from the PvE against bots players. At a minimum 10% of BF6 game purchases were for the Campaign and PvE against bots players. That’s 2 million people that would be buying battlefield battle passes, skins, etc. Because of bot farming, that they have now since fixed, I expected that Portal with solo and 4player Co-op would be back with the last patch update.… Didn’t happen. 

    They have to know that PvE is popular, this if they just look at BF2042 which have solo/co-op built in from the start (limited XP but no reduction for gun and gadget unlocks). At this point they are just being stubborn or are so short staffed on BF6 fixes … this is very low on their list of priorities. Hopefully we will get solo/co-op soon.
