[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. Thank you for your patience and understanding! https://x.com/BattlefieldComm/status/1977242087172268060 https://x.com/Battlefield/status/1976804746674815031 From the Battlefield X account: https://x.com/Battlefield/status/1976728927348703540 Update 2 The team is in the process of deploying a resolution for the issue that causes players on the EA App to be unable to start game modes due to missing DLC/content. Players will need to restart the game for this to take effect. We expect this to be completed within the next hour or so and will update when it's done. Installation of Content We're aware of an issue preventing players from accessing the game with some receiving an error stating they need to purchase DLC or similar.

Missing Daily Login Messages and Rewards
I’ve logged in every day from October 10 to October 16, 2025, but I still haven’t received any new messages in my inbox related to the daily bonuses. All I want is to be able to claim the missing daily gifts that were supposed to arrive through those messages. I’m playing on PC (EA Play). I’ve already contacted customer support, but I wanted to report it here as well in case others are experiencing the same issue. Hopefully, this can be fixed soon.
Matchmaking not filling small modes with AI to start the round, Bot Quota issue
‼️STILL AFFECTING MATCHMAKING AFTER SEASON 1 UPDATE ‼️ I thought this bug was fixed yesterday, it's not. Bots aren't filling to the required player count. It seems this change is what's affecting it [BFComms] Reintroducing Bots to Verified Experiences | EA Forums - 12889166 In summary there's 3 bugs affecting Official Matchmaking servers: 1. Bot Backfill is not filling small team modes to the required players to start the game. Giving CQC modes long unbearable waiting times as the "populating with bots" message doesn't fill the server with enough bots to start the game, stopping shy of 4 remaining 'players'. There's also an enforced maximum bot count per team or Bot Quota ratio, making bots disappear when there's a certain amount of players on a team. This is counter-intuitive and should be removed, bots should continue to supplement the player-count regardless of how many humans are present, until the lobby is full to capacity with humans. 2. Bot Backfill is not filling large team modes to 64/64 capacity. Causing imbalance and empty games. 3. Bot Backfill is not replacing bots after a human leaves the server. 4. Possible bug with "Casual Breakthrough" or just an oversight, the game doesn't start until there's 8 players in the game. This is counter-intuitive. These bugs are not isolated incidents, they're widespread continuously affecting the global span of servers. Domination from 5th Nov 2025 where Bots never filled the enemy team, showing the Bot Quota issue: Bots need to fill the entire lobby, the Bot Quota that's in place is doing more harm than good. Domination from 1st Nov 2025 where Bots never filled the lobby: This is the same bug that had its page locked: Latest Game Update Broke Matchmaking!!!!!! | EA Forums - 12808903 Low player count regions can't play small team modes because bot fill is not working as intended. Larger modes are also not bot backfilling to capacity leading to "empty games". The only time CQC modes can be played is during peak player hours when there's enough people searching for these modes where as before, you could search for 'King of the Hill', find a game, and if enough players did not join to meet the 'minimum players required' count, it would supplement with bots and the game would start. This is NO LONGER happening, the lobby is forcing a strict requirement of players, making these game modes unplayable during all times of day in lower player count regions. The same strict adverse requirement is being forced in Casual Breakthrough. Please, either make the bots fill to capacity or get rid of the 'minimum players required', it seems counter-intutive to have bot backfill but then enforce a strict 'minimum players required' count. Now that RedSec is out, these lobbies almost never fill up with humans. Improve the Bot Quota, let the bots continue to supplement the server when humans join instead of removing the bots. Furthermore this is part of another bug which continues into larger lobbies, where bots vanish and reduce the overall player count on a team for every human that joins, they should instead fill every single remaining slot on the team up to 32. If the server has 32 humans, the remaining 32 slots should be filled with bots until more humans join. This has also led into another bug where in some instances, the Bots never re-fill after a human leaves the server. I cannot overstate enough how boring the games are when lobbies are not filling to 64/64 by not properly supplementing with bots. The whole integration of bots into matchmaking is seriously bugged and needs to be looked at ASAP, especially with RedSec siphoning away players in the lower player count regions. Please just make bots backfill entire lobbies and make the matchmaker keep humans together between games instead of starting new lobbies. This bug is without a doubt collateral damage from the recent backend changes to how the matchmaker works shortly before Season 1's update. The issue has persisted since then, well into Season 1. King of the Hill where as players joined, the bots were kicked out the lobby, reducing the total players and defeating the point of the bot fill. Breakthrough where Bots are NOT filling the server to capacity resulting in lob-sided lobbies, 'empty games' and an unfair experience.
Members of our party don't get into the next game after 1 or 2 matches
This has happened to us (on Xbox), no matter who's the host. We have tried different hosts, staying in the previous lobby and not exiting, rebooting consoles, and even rebooting the game.... nothing keeps us all together for more than 1 or 2 matches. Sometimes it's only 1 of 4 that gets dropped, other times, it's 2 or 3. It also doesn't matter the size of the party... it happens when we've had 2, 3, or 4 and that'll include the host. No pattern that we can see. There is sometimes a visual clue that a party member won't make it to the next match, when the member icons at the bottom become hatched over. Since it's random, I can't replicated the bug. We're all on Xbox and we all have cross play turned on. The type of match and/or map selections don't make it any better either. Please fix. Thanks.
Hardcoded keybinds interfere/conflict
Please fix the issue of hardcoded keybinds conflicting, even after changing them in the controls menu. I want to play the game, but I can't set up with basic custom keybinds. I shouldn't have to learn how to use your default hardcoded bindings. I paid for this game. Please support it.ESC key not working reliably due to concept context handling in PROFSAVE_profile
Platform: PC Game: Battlefield 6 Description: I am experiencing a persistent issue with the ESC key in Battlefield 6 that started after a few days of normal gameplay. Suddenly, ESC does not reliably open the in-game menu and in certain contexts such as the loadout menu or end-of-match results screen it stops functioning entirely. After investigation, I discovered that the problem is linked to how the game handles “concept contexts” in the PROFSAVE_profile file. Adding the following lines manually to the profile for the various concept layers restores ESC functionality in all contexts:GstKeyBinding.common.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.common.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.common.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.common.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.infantry.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.infantry.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.infantry.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.infantry.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.vehicle.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.vehicle.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.vehicle.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.vehicle.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.jet.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.jet.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.jet.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.jet.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.equipment.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.equipment.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.equipment.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.equipment.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.scoreboard.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.scoreboard.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.scoreboard.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.scoreboard.ConceptMenu.0.type 2 GstKeyBinding.results.ConceptMenu.0.axis 0 GstKeyBinding.results.ConceptMenu.0.button 1 GstKeyBinding.results.ConceptMenu.0.negate 0 GstKeyBinding.results.ConceptMenu.0.type 2Additional context / troubleshooting steps taken: I have disabled all overlays. I play exclusively in fullscreen mode as the problem occurs more frequently in windowed or borderless mode. I verified that Steam Cloud sync is not the cause. The game sometimes regenerates the PROFSAVE_profile file on launch, removing these lines, which causes the issue to reappear.Impact: This behavior makes the ESC key unreliable during gameplay and on end-of-match screens, negatively affecting game navigation and usability.Request: I would appreciate if the development team could investigate why the game removes these concept context bindings automatically and provide a permanent fix to ensure the ESC key functions reliably in all contexts.Thank you for your attention. LucaGetting launched as well as constant lag
I was at the start of a Escalation mission editing my weapons, when I exited I had been launched into the air for some reason, also some how one of my teammates had gone down already as well? Unrelated but I figured I would add on, I lag on almost every single game I play, most of the time it is only movement lag for some reason, but sometimes it escalates to straight up unplayable lag on everything. I usually have 22-28 mbs down, and 4-7 mbs and dont lag on other multiplayer games. I've added the clip of being launched in the air at the very start (sorry its low quality the higher quality ones failed to attach) and thank you guys for your time and assistance!
0 XP PROBLEM'S XP not tracking
I am currently encountering a persistent 0 XP bug in Battlefield 6 after completing matches. My experience points are not registering, preventing all progression. Can anyone confirm if this is a widespread, active issue right now, and if there is a known official fix or temporary workaround available from EA/DICE?"
