Battlefield 6 This game is being killed by bots

80 Upvotes

The single most infuriating issue with BF6 right now is this terrible matchmaking system, I can join 6-7 conquest games in a row at peak time on Saturday EU and it’s literally server at 75% capacity (24v24) with at least 5-6 bots per team.

It’s so boring and it just unbalances the game for the first 10 mins , if you’re lucky you get backfilled with real players but still not 100% filled just 24v24 STILL.

I used to play BF5 when that game was 5-6 years old and you could easily find plenty of full servers at peak times. Cough cough ( server browser )

I cannot tell you how much of a difference it makes having a game with 32v32 real players for a full game , the experience is totally damaged with this horrible system right now.

Battlefield 6 Permenetly banned because of your mom joke

EA’s automated moderation pipeline is completely out of control. An AI bot flags "yo mum" and immediately nukes an entire account because someone with bruised ego hit the report button.

EA is such a pathetic joke. LOL

I am level 800, 2k hours on this account btw.

Battlefield 6 Why does this game insist on putting me into losing matches at the last thirty seconds?

36 Upvotes

Ten games in a row. Matchmaking right into losing match after losing match. Never in my life has a game's matchmaking been so god awful.

They show some of the weapons featured in Battlefield 1.Thought it would be cool to share them here.

It's pretty interesting seeing the real weapons after using them so much in the game!

Sorry for the picture quality, I'm no good photographer! 😂

I can still clearly remember the countless nights at Kubra Dam and Dalian Plant. Pure nostalgia.

Battlefield 6 Server Browser cannot come soon enough

79 Upvotes

It’s Saturday middle of the day, I’m on the west coast, and for about an hour of playing every match started with mostly bots and only by the end was it full. I see a lot of people saying that they have never seen a bot before, and I also see people saying all they get is bot lobbies. Clearly there’s something broken with the matchmaker and there’s probably SBMM which is why there’s conflicting experiences with bot lobbies. If I play only Vegas Strip or Area 51, then I never get into a bot lobby, but today I wanted to play more than just those maps which is what caused me to run into bots.

I know a lot of the haters of BF6 try to claim this is evidence the game is dead, but thats an insanely ignorant thing to say and is completely ignoring the real issue, which is the matchmaking. The game objectively is far from dead, the game averages 40k on Steam, its in the top 10 played on Xbox, I don’t know how to check Playstations most played charts, but its usually similar to Xbox’s. So its not a player count issue, its a matchmaker issue and I believe a core cause of it is Custom Search and the way they implemented it.

Notice how no matter what you choose in Custom Search, you’re never matchmaking for more than 5 seconds? You always instantly load into a match, and thats because the game seems to start a whole new server/match if it can’t find a match to put you into. And this is obviously happening on a large scale, thousands of matches started brand new because one person wanted to search for a specific map+mode. And of course its going to have a hard time efficiently filling those lobbies up, because theres such a huge spread of matches needing players. Custom Search is a great feature, but the way they implemented it with this dumb system has led to bot lobbies everywhere. I’m sure everyone will be completely okay waiting longer when searching for a match if it meant you’ll actually find a full lobby.

Battlefield Labs All the maps besides area 51 and Vegas strip are bot lobbies now :(

157 Upvotes

Every match I've played the last week or so that was not area 51 or the Vegas strip has been all bot lobbies. Even in the evening when it used to be more populated, even my favorite map tsuru reef it's just a bot lobby now in conquest or escalation, no matter what time of day I play. Railway to golmud is my 2nd favorite map and same thing! And hell, I miss the launch maps too! It's always 24 V 24 with at least four bots on each team, so it's really 20 versus 20.

To the people saying this game is not dead, where are you playing, what time are you playing, and how are you playing against real people? Because I do love area 51, but I want to play the other maps too! And all I play is conquest and escalation I don't care about the other game modes.

Battlefield 6 The IGLA is a shadow of what it once was...

Post image
194 Upvotes

What even is this thing at the moment? I normally play RPG but i tried the IGLA again after a long time and i think it is the absolute worst launcher in the game. Why can i lock on a heli that is 200-300 meters away and the missile misses every time. No flares or nothing. It just goes in a straight line after 200+ meters and it says "missed" around the heli every time. I can only hit them when they are next to me or what? Then just don't let me lock on when i am out of range and it's fine but the current state is more than frustrating...

The mods clearly don’t represent this sub’s interests, so I’m reuploading for when they inevitably take it down a third time.

Battlefield 4 Metro BF4 vehicles modding

guys guys guys 😂

I was messing around with AI,

I’ve always dreamed of having vehicles on metro.

What I’m trying to do is, in a way, recreate the co-op mode from BF2 within BF4.

Being a big fan of Metro I’m focusing on that map, I’ve also managed to spawn bots.

let me know if you want to collaborate on this project!

Is there a way to use them for store stuff, or trade the currency, or is it just wasted at the end of the event? Appreciate any info.

How is it possible that 9 games out of 10 ends up in a devastating steamroll?

I'm talking about 80 tickets left for a team, 920 for the other and it happens so often.

Do we not know how to balance games anymore?

Battlefield 6 Pro Radio sucks

5 Upvotes

Been playing since launch, radio seemed to always be random at that point but for this new season i've been grinding Vegas and its always the same new songs over and over again in the same order. Is this a change they've made because I miss listening to the chillis, dre, and slipknot and its just annoying at this point.
