Discussion on Progression Issues and Current Update Bugs
I’m a Chinese player, and this thread is only for discussing bugs. There’s a saying about EA that circulates in China: “EA won’t put real effort into a game unless it’s on the verge of dying.” Knowing that, I chose not to pre-order Battlefield 6—even though its launch was way better than Battlefield 2042’s disastrous debut. It took me a lot of hesitation during Black Friday (which lined up with the free play week) to finally buy the Standard Edition.
The first bug I hit right after launching the game was that my rightful Battlefield 6 Road rewards went missing—I’d maxed out the Battle Pass in Battlefield 2042 specifically to claim those. Two days later, my drop rewards vanished too. (Coincidentally, other players have also reported that some rewards fail to deliver even after buying the Battlefield 6 Premium Pass.)
Then came the latest update. I read the patch notes—pages of changes, right? So why are there more problems now than before? Even old bugs like the “bullet despawn glitch” are still here, and some issues are worse than they were pre-update.
New bugs from the update include: Assault players getting screen dimming when using the stim shot in Winter Mode; and other players reporting that after dying in Winter Mode, they turn into a corpse and can’t redeploy (I actually ran into this exact redeployment bug myself in a Team Deathmatch on the Empire State map around 9:20 PM tonight).
To top it off, in a Rush match on Liberation Peak I joined at 10:00 PM tonight, the map was swarmed with objective points—no restricted deployment zones at all. Even after dying repeatedly, the number of available respawns never decreased.
If you’ve hit other bugs, drop them in the comments. Let’s upvote this thread so the devs see it and prioritize fixing these issues. All I want is the rewards I earned: my Battlefield 6 Road rewards and missing drops. Thanks, everyone.
