Road to BF6 rewards
Anyone else have missing content from the Road to BF6 battle pass from BF2042? NONE of the content rewards from that battle pass that were meant for BF6 have shown up for me. I have received an in game message from EA congratulating me on receiving the items but they are still locked in the customization menu. Quite frustrating. I also completed the battle pass well before the cutoff of October 7th, 2025. I play on the Xbox Series S.
Matchmaking breaks every other match when on same network
Me and my fiance have paid £130 for 2 copies of the game, Im PC Steam she is Xbox series X, just for matchmaking to break every other game. Either it loads just one of us into a game or neither of us and we need to completely restart the game. Had this exact same issue in battlefield 2042 and the BF6 Beta. Genuinely thought this would have been fixed by now.... This is game breaking as it destroys any immersion/flow.
Time Nudge (TN) issue Megathread
Hello! I've been dealing with issues relating to Time Nudge spikes (can manifest either as high lag or "slow-motion") and high consistent Time Nudge since about Battlefield 2042 update #3.0.0, and these issues have persisted into the BF6 beta, keeping me from pulling the $70 trigger on BF6. I've done research on the causes and "fixes" (though none of them are complete fixes) of the issues caused by Time Nudge, which I'll outline below. Cause: Time nudge, in most cases, appears to be introduced when the CPU can't keep up with the traffic from the server. Time nudge itself is a buffer that waits for the CPU to either process the packets sent by the server or re-sync with the tick speed of the server. This does not, however, mean more powerful CPUs don't have this issue and less powerful ones do - it seems to be almost random which devices have issues with time nudge and which don't: even some consoles have had issues with time nudge in Battlefield 2042. As for it being an internet, location, or router-related issue, I've eliminated those factors by: 1. Changing my ISP and router (for a different reason, but the issue persisted) 2. Using both Wi-Fi and Ethernet (it didn't matter) 3. Even though I live in a major server city, I took my computer traveling out east and still had no dice with fixing the issue on hotel Wi-Fi. The issue is often found in systems whose CPUs have high utilization or are throttling (as is expected), but I've run 2042 and the BF6 beta on 60% CPU utilization well under 80 degrees C with the issue persisting. Your system not getting enough airflow could be an issue causing Time Nudge spikes. From what I've seen, the issue appears both on Intel and AMD chips across multiple generations, including mobile and desktop chips, and across multiple motherboard models as well. It's likely a slight mismatch with something in certain specific CPUs and the Netcode that causes the issues to appear. The issue is not GPU-related: it persists on integrated graphics and both graphics cards I own, and changing graphics settings or turning on DLSS does not majorly affect how severe the issue is. This has been consistent throughout my research into the topic. Additionally, the games usually run with very high framerate and high GPU overhead even when the issue occurs. The issue could be RAM-related in some cases. Tweaking some RAM-related settings in BIOS can relieve some issues relating to Time Nudge. Solutions: The issue can be relieved partially for some devices by lowering the max framerate in the game settings below what it normally . This may give some overhead for the CPU to run network-related processes and Additionally, user-created .cfg files have been circulating that limit CPU usage for the game to only about half of what it would use otherwise. These haven't worked at all for me, but seem to have had some effect in other users' issues. Note that this fix -- pretty much universally -- has been said to not completely solve the issue, but rather alleviate it a bit. For those who have the option, enabling an XMP profile for RAM in your bios could alleviate the issue. Alternatively, adding more RAM to your system could eliminate any issues in the CPU failing to communicate with memory, and give the CPU enough overhead to perform other tasks. Resetting your BIOS or re-installing your OS or game is not a valid way of alleviating this issue, from my attempts at doing all three and anecdotal evidence from other threads. Something I read relating to Time Nudge that seems important to note: "It's an issue with no clear cause and no solution." Everybody's case will be different, and the issue is probably not solvable either on your end or EA's end. As far as I can tell, the only way to completely solve the issue would be to swap to a different CPU, including using a potentially older one. If you have a laptop or a system with a soldered-on CPU, getting a new device to play the game on may be your only option if the fixes I've listed and the ones in the comments don't work. If I missed any solutions (I definitely did), feel free to drop them in the comments. Conclusion: I'm writing this in part to get the attention of EA staff, of whom only one has responded to any time-nudge related thread before (2 years ago). This is an issue that is preventing a not insignificant amount of players from enjoying your game, and one that needs to be solved. This is not an issue for me in any Battlefield game other than 2042 and 6, and not in any other multiplayer game either. Edit 10/25/2025: Just gonna leave an update here - consensus among quite a few posts (here and elsewhere) has shown that if you're having Time Nudge issues on the 60hz servers, playing on the 30hz Community servers is an option. The 60hz servers are just more difficult for the CPU to juggle network traffic with, so a slower tick rate server should alleviate the issue a little. I've bought BF6 and will post the results of me trying those 30hz Community / Portal servers. Something about those servers to note: there has been community pushback against DICE for their decision to make those servers 30hz. While this is a reasonable criticism from a gameplay perspective, a switch to all-60hz servers could end a way for us experiencing this Time Nudge issue to play the game. Due to that community pushback, and assuming the TN issue isn't addressed in a near-future update, you can expect that method of playing the game to vanish after some time. Another thing to note for some users, especially with portable devices: changing power plan settings to not throttle (pick High Performance mode in "Choose a power plan" in Windows search) has had some effect in mitigating this issue with some users I've seen online, especially those with laptops or handheld devices. I will note, however, that altering this did not work for me in 2042 with my laptop.
Can we get some sort of time frame for fixes? Or at least an acknowledgement?
Can we get some kind of acknowledgement that support is even checking these threads? Can we get fixes for the game that doesn't require us gimping our GPU, CPU, And XMP/AMD EXPO (Ram speeds)? This probably includes the infamous DX errors this game is riddled with. Any time frame on getting hit reg fixed? You know, those moments of shooting an opponent in the back just for them to turn around and smoke you with what looks like 1 bullet ? Any plans on fixing the Fire camping that takes place in REDSEC? That's allowing people to hangout in the fire without taking damage ? What about what we were sold with Portal? Full progession with bots and friends? Being able to back fill lobbies with bots and enjoying with friends is part of why I purchased this game. Can we let the community decide on the game changes ? Not streamers? We paid our money, it's about time for some sort of acknowledgement. EA_Leeuw ??

[BF6] Share Your Experience: Hitreg, Rubberbanding, and Connection Icons
Hey everyone 👋 We’re taking a closer look at reports related to hit registration issues, rubberbanding, and how the current connection warning icons behave during matches. Some players have mentioned that these issues occur consistently for them, and we’d love to gather more real-world in-game examples to help us understand what’s happening in different situations. If you experience these issues regularly and are willing to share screenshots or short videos, your contribution would be extremely helpful. What We’re Looking For 1. Rubberbanding or connection-feeling issues If you see warning icons frequently or experience movement stutters/teleporting: Please share: A screenshot or short video If you’re sharing screenshots, make sure to attach them to your post -- do not embed them. This helps ensure they display correctly for everyone. With the Simple Performance Overview enabled With the Full Network Overlay enabled These help us understand whether the in-game icons match what’s actually happening with your performance or connection at that moment. 2. Consistent hit registration problems If hitreg regularly feels off for you: Please share: A short video showing the moment(s) where it happens With both overlays enabled (Simple Performance + Network Overlay) This allows us to distinguish between true network issues and client-side performance issues that can sometimes appear similar. How to Enable the Overlays Below are the steps for both PC and console players. 🎮 Console (PS5 / Xbox Series) Simple Performance Overview Open Settings in the game menu. Go to Graphics. Scroll to Performance Overlay (sometimes under “Advanced”). Turn it On, choosing either: Simple, or Advanced/Extended (if available) Network Overlay Open Settings. Go to Network, or Gameplay → Advanced, depending on your layout. Enable Network Performance Overlay or Network Graph. Once enabled, you’ll see indicators like latency, packet loss, and connection stability. 🖥️ PC Simple Performance Overview Open Settings. Go to Graphics. Scroll to Advanced. Enable Performance Overlay. Choose Simple or Advanced/Extended. Full Network Overlay Open Settings. Go to Network or Gameplay → Advanced. Enable Network Performance Overlay or Network Graph. Optional PC console command method (Only if you’ve enabled the console in settings.) Go to Settings → System, enable Command Console. Press ~ (tilde) in-game. Use the command: PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1 To turn it off: PerfOverlay.DrawFps 0 How to Share Your Screenshots/Videos Please upload your clips using: Google Drive OneDrive Dropbox Imgur Streamable YouTube (unlisted is fine) Important: Ensure your link is set to public or “Anyone with the link can view.” Private links cannot be opened. If you’re sharing screenshots, make sure to attach them to your post -- do not embed them. This helps ensure they display correctly for everyone. What Happens After You Share We may reply with follow-up questions or ask if you are open to trying a couple of small tests (like adjusting FPS caps or checking CPU usage). This is completely optional and intended only to help narrow down the causes. We’re not making promises about outcomes -- the goal here is simply to gather clear, consistent examples so we can better understand what players are experiencing. How to Participate When posting your report, please include: A public link to your screenshot/video A short description of what happened Your platform (PC, PS5, Xbox Series) Whether the issue is consistent/reproducible for you Thanks to everyone who takes the time to share examples -- it genuinely helps move these investigations forward and improves the experience for all players.Crossplay matchmaking issue between Xbox and pc parties
I'm having issues in a party with PC players I have an Xbox series x and when I'm in a party with PC players I will get left behind in the lobby when others are loading into a game, they have to keep backing out of the game and try to start up again to see if it takes me with the party into a game and after a match/game end screen with your progress, challenges, top squad, and waiting for another match to start up and I will get stuck on that screen and my party will be loading into another game, then all of will have to back out to the lobby and try again, but when am in a party with Xbox and ps5 players I don't experience any issue joining a game with my party, if their is a mix with PC, Xbox, and ps5 player in a party only the Xbox players will be left in the lobby, I have an open nat type, I port forward my Xbox, tried restarting Xbox and modem, I also tried assigning my Xbox to a permanent ip address, static or dynamic and it still will not take me with the party when playing with PC players
Rise from the grave achievement
Battlefield Team, Please rework this achievement. It is impossible to do and not a reasonable ask. For example, if a player got 10 revives a day in the Gauntlet mode, it would take them 200 days to get 1988 revives. The player base would be gone or super low by then. Please redo this or allow us to earn achievements from the Portal mode. Thank you!
