[UPDATE] BF6 - Purchase To Unlock/Not Installed Error & Compensation Update
UPDATE 4, Oct. 17 - EA app Outage In-game Rewards Update We're aware that some players impacted by the EA app outage during the Battlefield 6 launch did not initially receive their in-game rewards. This issue was caused by an error in the rollout process. We've completed a review of the timing and activity in this window and distributed items to players who were initially missed. No further action is needed to receive these rewards. We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding as we resolved this issue and thank you for playing Battlefield 6. UPDATE 3, Oct. 12 - EA app – Compensation Update Players impacted by yesterday’s EA app outage will now find their XP Boosters delivered to their in-game mailbox and XP Boost inventory. To see your XP Boost inventory, on the main menu, select "Training Grounds" and select "XP Boost" in the top-right menu.

Missing Promised Free Premium Season 1 Battle Pass
Dear EA Support Team, My name is d1m4n1337. I pre-ordered Battlefield 6 (edition: Standard). The purchase was made directly through the EA App. On the global launch day (October 10, 2025), I encountered an error in the EA App (outage related to the "purchase to play" bug), which prevented me from accessing the game for several hours. This issue was widespread among pre-order owners via the EA App and was officially acknowledged by DICE/EA. In the official statement dated October 11, 2025 (on the EA website, Twitter @Battlefield, and the EA App launcher), it was promised that all affected players would receive compensation, including a free premium Season 1 Battle Pass, as well as 12 Hardware Boosters and 12 Career 60-Minute Boosters. I received the boosters (Hardware and Career) shortly after launch; however, as of today (October 31, 2025, after the start of Season 1), I have still not received the Battle Pass in my account. I kindly request: Verification of my account eligibility for the compensation (pre-order via EA App and impact from the outage). Issuance of the promised free premium Season 1 Battle Pass. Confirmation of the resolution timeline if additional review is required. Thank you in advance for your prompt resolution. Best regards, d1m4n1337
WTF
Yoo what did yall do to this game? Why is my controller randomly aiming at the wrong spot when I ads? Why do i constantly lose fights after shooting first and getting more shots and accuracy? Why does the aim assist give me resistance? Especially on moving targets. Why does the general pacing of this battlefield seem so off like some stupid cod brainrot sh*t. Then why are yall needing everything into the ground like the smgs feel terrible like wtf?
Class Abilities Gaining Exp Too fast
Hello, I've encountered an issue in which my class abilities are becoming active without actually gaining the exp needed to activate them, leaving me unaware if I actually have the ability available. Furthermore, at least with Recon and Assault the Level 3 ability becomes active multiple times in a life causing a lot of screen disruption and the exp bar flashing on the screen. The abilities sometimes do activate as well, which could cause and unfair disruption in the gameplay. I've had this happen across multiple modes, but king of the hill and domination seem to get the exp fastest.
[BUG] BF6 XP Boosters expire while offline/outside game play
I didn't see a similar bug report so here you are. XP Boosters and modifiers expire while offline/ outside game play 2 nights ago i logged off with a career and hardware booster active. logged back in the next day and the time remaining was gone. Out of doubt I tried reproducing. yesterday I logged off the next day with a xp booster with an hour left. logged in today and the remaining time is gone. ether the time in game is being displayed incorrectly at time of logoff OR xp booster time is being used when off line was using the 60min boosters only.
Shooting Range is broken
The targets on the shooting range stop getting back up. I haven't figured out why, but all the targets on the range are bugging out after a few 'kills'. Didn't matter which class or gun I tried. I also figured out that when I turn my back on them and turn around they are standing up for a split second but going down instantly. See the video for reference. I can also provide the raw unedited footage, but it is to big to attach here.
The game closes and returns to the desktop without error
Before this update, the game was working great and I had no issues. Now, randomly, when I start a multiplayer game, the game crashes and returns to the desktop without any errors. My weapons are still locked even though I've completed the unlock assignments, and I haven't received any compensation for not being able to play on day 1 due to the game not being installed. Now, tell me what to do, because the situation is really frustrating. As for my PC, I have a Ryzen 7 9800x3d and an RTX 4080. What should I do? If I try some workarounds, you'll say I wasn't affected by the problem and that my game never actually crashed? Ridiculous.
