Connection problems
Subject: Battlefield 6 PC – Persistent Hit Registration, Latency Warnings, and Respawn Stuttering Hello EA Support, I am requesting technical assistance with a persistent problem in Battlefield 6 on my PC. My bullets sometimes appear not to register correctly, and I experience stuttering or delayed responsiveness, especially after respawning. The in-game network performance indicator also reports latency problems. My ping is usually stable during each match, but it varies between servers. Some matches start around 38–40 ms, while others start around 68–70 ms. The latency warning can appear even when the ping remains stable throughout the match. My PC specifications: - CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D - GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB - RAM: 64 GB - Motherboard: MSI MPG X870E Carbon WiFi - Operating system: Windows 11 Pro - Monitor: LG, 165 Hz - Game platform: Steam - AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.10.1 Troubleshooting already performed: - Tested the PC connected directly to my Xfinity XB10 gateway via Ethernet. - Ran extended ping tests to my local router and to 8.8.8.8. - Updated and checked my AMD graphics driver. - Enabled Windows Game Mode and hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling. - Disabled AMD Fluid Motion Frames and AMD FSR Frame Generation. - Tested TAA antialiasing. - Limited in-game frame rate to 160 FPS. Limiting the frame rate improved responsiveness and hit registration somewhat, but the network latency warnings and other problems persist. I have also experienced similar issues in other games. I would like EA to investigate whether this could be related to Battlefield 6 server performance, client-server synchronization, hit registration, or another technical issue. Please provide a case number and any advanced diagnostic steps that can help identify the root cause. I can provide screenshots and additional evidence from the in-game network performance graph. Thank you for your assistance.Subject: Battlefield 6 on Steam — 0:85009S after approximately 5 min
Subject: Battlefield 6 on Steam — recurring error 0:85009S after approximately 5 minutes; reconnecting only provides brief relief Hello EA Support, I need help investigating a reproducible online connection issue in Battlefield 6 on PC, launched through Steam and the EA app. The error in the BF6 scenario described below is consistently 0:85009S. SYMPTOMS AND REPRODUCTION STEPS 1. I launch Battlefield 6 through Steam and remain in the main menu without joining a match. 2. After approximately five minutes, error 0:85009S appears. 3. The game does not close or crash to the desktop. I click Reconnect and return to the main menu. 4. After reconnecting, the same error returns much sooner and repeats frequently. I have not measured the exact intervals between these subsequent errors. 5. Leaving the game open on the error screen for six minutes before reconnecting does not help: the error still returns quickly. 6. Completely closing only BF6 and launching it again through Steam restores the initial interval of approximately five minutes before the first error. Steam and the EA app remain running throughout these game restarts. Important clarification: this is an online-session disconnection while the game process remains running, not a confirmed process crash. Earlier troubleshooting notes used the term "crash," but that does not accurately describe the observed behavior. Connection problems have also occurred in EA SPORTS FC 26 and skate. The precise reproduction steps and error code above refer to BF6. Previous testing also reproduced the problem with different EA accounts on this PC. SYSTEM INFORMATION - Windows 11; the build recorded in my earlier notes is 26200. I can provide the full build number and update channel if needed. The build number alone does not establish whether this is an Insider installation. - Motherboard: Gigabyte B650M GAMING WIFI. - Network adapter: Realtek Gaming 2.5GbE; - Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 enabled. TROUBLESHOOTING ALREADY COMPLETED Network: - Ping tests to the router and 1.1.1.1 showed no packet loss during those tests. - Tested a commercial VPN and a mobile 4G connection. Previous tests did not resolve the problem when changing the network/IP address. A separate VPN scenario could produce a different error; this request concerns the reproducible 0:85009S scenario. - Tested Google/Cloudflare DNS, cleaned the hosts file, and tested port forwarding, UPnP, and temporarily placing the PC in the router's DMZ, without resolving the issue. - Tested zapret traffic-manipulation strategies, without resolving the issue. - Cloudflare WARP could not be used as a successful alternative-connection test because it returned CF_HAPPY_EYEBALLS_MITM_FAILURE. - A curl connection error for gosredirector.ea.com also occurred on a friend's PC where the game works, so that result was not treated as evidence of ISP blocking. Software, drivers, and anti-cheat: - Removed Gigabyte Control Center and GbtCloudMatrix.exe. - Removed the gdrv3 driver. - Disabled VirtualMachinePlatform, WSL, and the vmcompute and hns services during testing. - Removed/disabled the TAP-Windows Adapter V9 and tun0 (sing-box) virtual adapters. - Reinstalled EA Javelin Anti-Cheat, including cleanup of related folders and registry entries. - Checked that CryptoPro CSP was not installed. - Performed a Windows clean boot using msconfig. - Tested with Memory Integrity disabled. Windows and user profile: - Ran sfc /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth. The problem remained; earlier notes mention a repair involving bthmodem.sys. - Created a new local Windows user profile; the problem remained. - Checked the Application and System event logs. The previous review did not find Application Error events indicating a BF6 crash at the time of disconnection. EAAntiCheat unload events (FilterManager Event ID 1) were noted, but no causal connection to the disconnections has been established. This list describes tests already performed. It does not mean that every modified setting is still in that state now. NETWORK CAPTURE AND MONITORING FINDINGS The available files are ea-connections.txt, ea-service-monitor.txt, ea-socket-monitor.txt, ea-full.etl, and ea-full.pcapng. They cover different observation intervals and should not be treated as one synchronized recording. 1. In ea-full.pcapng: - At 303.161 seconds after capture start, the PC sends the first FIN in the connection to 98.85.38.9:8095. - At 303.370 seconds, the PC sends a FIN in the connection to 98.85.38.9:9000. - The server responds; packet exchange is still occurring at this point. - The capture continues until 322.295 seconds. New connections to 100.50.20.250 on ports 9000 and 8095 appear at approximately 317–319 seconds. Their owning process has not been established from this capture. - These timings are relative to capture start, not a verified game-process start time. 2. In ea-connections.txt: - At 23:50:37, a connection to remote port 9000 enters TimeWait with PID 0. - Other bf6 connections with PID 16380 remain in the log until 23:50:47. - Therefore, PID 0 for the closed connection is not evidence that the game process was terminated. 3. In a separate pair of before/after snapshots: - bf6 retains PID 11668 and the same start time, 2 November 2026 at 00:21:09. - Before the disconnection, the connections to 100.50.20.250:8095 and :9000 belong to bf6. - After the disconnection, those connections are absent from the Established list, but bf6 and its other connections remain present. 4. In ea-service-monitor.txt: - All 789 entries show EABackgroundService as Running with PID 3780. - No restart of that service was observed. This file does not monitor the anti-cheat service. 5. Limitation of ea-socket-monitor.txt: - The script used hard-coded process IDs, including an old game PID of 11668. - The resulting file contains EADesktop and EABackgroundService entries but no bf6 entries. It cannot establish that a newly launched BF6 process with a different PID had no connections. These findings do not establish anti-cheat termination, ISP blocking, token expiration, or a server-forced disconnect as the cause. A TCP FIN shows connection closure, but does not explain why the application closed it.
gun jammed
why is it when i shoot at certain players my gun fires 1 bullet and stops, or during sustained fire it'll stop firing halfway through the mag? i've tested it on all of the other modes and it hasn't happened once. it ONLY happens in the battle royale modes. i've built up a reflex of flicking my reticle off target and back on because it's the only thing that fixes the issue. also, it only happens in close range fights(10meteres or less) unless i'm using a sniper rifles. with sniper rifles it fires normally but will not zoom in if my reticle is on the players model. i have to again flick my reticle away from the player model and then zoom in and flick back on, so i don't use snipers anymore. from everything i've learned and experienced, it's tied to the reticle being on the player model and the only thing to reset it is to move your reticle off of the player model and back on. yes i have reinstalled and multiple times now have reset my settings because that is the only info i've been able to find. no i'm not forgetting to reload and no i'm not accidentally putting the rifle into semi. there's a reload bug too. it might look reloaded, you didn't swap and the animation played all the way through, but it isn't.
Battlefield 6 keeps crashing to desktop with no error
Hey guys, Battlefield 6 keeps crashing for me. The game will randomly just close to desktop with no error or warning. Sometimes it works fine, but then it crashes again later. One time, after it had already crashed a few times, my whole PC froze and restarted, but normally it's just the game closing. My PC specs are CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600 GPU: ASUS RTX 4060 Ti 16GB RAM: 32GB DDR4 Motherboard Gigabyte B550M DS3H Windows 11 I'm playing through the EA app. I've already tried reinstalling the game, reinstalling Javelin Anti-Cheat, and trying the other fixes people have suggested, but nothing has fixed it. Other games and programs don't cause this problem. At this point I'm not sure what else I can try. Is there anything specific you guys can check or recommend? Could this be an issue with the game or Javelin AntiCheat?
Disconnected from the Game with Error Code 0:85008S:17862870170:-2146566144Q
Hello, I keep getting disconnected from Battlefield 6 with the following error message: SERVER DISCONNECTED Error Code: 0:85008S:17862870170:-2146566144Q The game randomly disconnects me, even though my internet connection is stable and my internet speed is good. I would also like to clarify that: I am not using a router. My PC is connected directly to the internet. I am not using a VPN. My internet connection is stable and has good download and upload speeds. I have no apparent internet connectivity issues outside the game. I have tried to understand what is causing this problem, but I cannot identify the reason. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Could this be related to EA servers, server-side connection problems, or something else? I would appreciate any help or suggestions from the community or EA Support. Thank you!Blocked but no reason why?
Can someone please tell me why I am blocked with no end date and this is not the first time this has happened. No one ever seems to get back to me or read my tickets. I get no email notifications but everything is correct on my account. I’ve been blocked 4 different times all for different time periods but no violations. My account shows no history of any of the blocks and I can never appeal something that EA does not show. I only ever get blocked on days I don’t play and I come back to no access and this time seems to be no end in sight nor will anyone respond. I need help!Network Disconnected Since Season 3 Update
Every time I try to open BF6--except the first and only time I've been able to play since update--I receive this error message. I cannot even get to the Main Menu to access single-player mode. I have verified my EA Account and can login to that. I can open and login to the EA Desktop App. I have done the IPConfig CMD commands. I've restarted my computer. I've tried opening Steam and the Game as Administrator. I've disconnected and reconnected all USB Devices. This is the only game that isn't working.
