Drone bug with a sledgehammer
The drone can carry friendlies to buildings inaccessible to those without a heli or jet to get to. They are having a friendly jump on it and hit the drone with a sledge hammer causing it to launch in...

I’m posting this because the drone + sledgehammer levitation exploit is destroying the gameplay in Battlefield 6 right now. This is not an occasional glitch it’s present in almost every single match I play, with multiple players abusing it simultaneously (4–5 per match on average). It makes maps unplayable and destroys competitive integrity.
What happens:
Standing on top of a recon drone and repeatedly hitting it with the sledgehammer causes the player and drone to levitate upwards continuously. Players can reach extreme heights, hover over objectives, and snipe or camp from unreachable positions.
Steps to reproduce:
Deploy a recon drone.
Jump on top of it.
Equip the sledgehammer and hit the drone repeatedly.
→ Result: continuous upward levitation for the drone + player.
Why this matters:
This exploit isn’t just annoying it fundamentally breaks maps, spawn balance and objective play. Honest players are getting repeatedly steamrolled by abusers, and matches are becoming unenjoyable. This is a major gameplay exploit, not a “player report” or a minor graphics bug.
Request:
Please escalate this to Battlefield QA / the development team as an urgent issue. A hotfix or temporary mitigation (e.g. disable drone melee interactions, limit vertical movement while on drones) is required immediately.
Breakthrough on New Sobek City, Manhattan Bridge are basically unplayable with this glitch. There constantly someone on top of the bridge sniping down at the attacking team. And on new Sobek City the second objective always has 4 or 5 people on top of the building shooting down into the point. Honestly ridiculous that this wasnt the first thing they addressed.
Getting up on the roofs in sobek, especially on the second point, is not a drone exploit, its intended game mechanics with the ladder. A lot of people seem to be mistaking this one. Not all roof access and building access is due to drone. A lot of people just aren’t experimenting with what is arguably one of the most interesting and fun gadgets to use in the game and don’t realise its capabilities.
Yes, But the roof above A in sector one is NOT intended, and thye are there every match, and more often than not in sector 2, ladders arent used, drone sare - even thou theres a legit way to do it.
