I think there are two main reasons my memory-and judging by the comments on Reddit, that of many others as well-seems so distorted when it comes to BF1's maps. Number one: Combat and transport in Battlefield 1 were much slower and more limited due to its WW1 setting. Tanks back then moved slowly, guns were inaccurate at far distances, and aerial vehicles were limited in what they could do. Getting anywhere in that game took time, and fights rarely happened across long distances.

Since Battlefield 6's beta, fans have complained that EA's online FPS has smaller maps than those found in previous entries. And when the game finally launched last month, these complaints only grew as it became clear that BF6 still lacked truly giant battlegrounds. Now, a fan has crunched the numbers and done the hard work to accurately compare the maps here to past maps from the main series and confirmed that, yeah, Battlefield 6′s collection of maps is the smallest.

Today is a big day for Battlefield 6, EA's recently released online military shooter. This is the day that BF6's first massive update goes live across all platforms, bringing a ton of changes and fixes to the game. It's also when season one of Battlefield 6 goes live, turning the shooter into a true live-service game. And on top of all that, Tuesday is when EA launches Battlefield 6's free-to-play battle royale mode, Redsec.

Recreations of classic maps and modes from other games are nothing new in shooters. Lately, however, publishers have started getting prickly over users remaking maps from their game in someone else's, and it seems this may be especially true when those games are as competitive with each other as Battlefield and Call of Duty. Battlefield 6 players remaking CoD maps via the game's new portal mode are finding this out the hard way, with their recreations of modes and maps from Activision's popular shooter getting taken down over intellectual property violations.

Well, the team plans to reduce the number of bots filling the lobbies with a new update planned for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Battlefield Studios--a collection of EA teams working on the Battlefield franchise that includes Criterion, DICE, Motive, and Ripple Effect-- took to X on October 21 to share the news. In the brief post, the developers explained that "several backend updates" are coming to facilitate more players and fewer bots in the servers.

First off, the term "suppress" might throw you off when trying to complete this challenge. It's a term that isn't explained anywhere in Battlefield 6, and only franchise veterans will likely know what it means. If you've never heard of "suppression" before, it's a term that refers to bullets being fired right near you. When this happens, you won't take any damage, but being suppressed completely stops your health regeneration in Battlefield 6. You won't continue to regen HP until you've stopped being suppressed.

Battlefield 6 is off to a franchise-best start with over 7 million copies sold so far. But that doesn't mean there isn't some room for improvement. Some BF6 players have been very vocal about their displeasure with the in-game sun and the overly bright lighting when players come outside of buildings. But a fix may be on the way.

The developer is addressing these concerns in a number of ways. First, the XP earned by completing a match is going up by 10%, and the daily bonus XP is getting a 40% boost. For weapon XP, BF Studios is reducing the XP needed to unlock any weapon's first 20 attachments. The developer said you can expect that process to be about twice as fast.

"Just the other day, I reported that an analytics firm reckoned Battlefield 6 had sold 6.5 million copies. Well, they were pretty damn close as EA and Battlefield Studios has announced a total of 7 million copies sold in just 3 days. That is more than enough to set a new record for the franchise, both in terms of sales and concurrent players. That's not bad for a franchise that has been in a decline. Are....are we back, guys?"

Battlefield 6 plays it safe but marks a return to form for the long-running series, delivering chaotic, large-scale multiplayer that's as familiar as it is uproariously fun.

The Battlefield 6 official soundtrack features Limp Bizkit, and while the collaboration might seem natural given the game series is known for "breaking stuff" and Limp Bizkit has a song called "Break Stuff," the partnership wasn't planned from the onset. Henry Jackman, who scored Battlefield 6, said in an interview with Hollywood Records that he was nearly finished with the Battlefield 6 OST before wondering if a collaboration with a rock group might benefit the game.

As reported by PC Gamer, what players were experiencing was an exceptionally gnarly bug related to the bloom on weapons in Battlefield 6. The mechanic, which increases the spread of bullets and reduces player accuracy the longer they're firing, seemed to be affecting players regardless of how long they were firing and the range at which they were engaging with enemies.

By default in Battlefield 6, every class has a starting Training Path that is automatically unlocked and equipped for you. Class Training Paths offer exclusive passive bonuses that go along with your Class Active Ability. The bonuses you receive from these Training Paths can directly affect your playstyle and gameplay on a match-to-match basis. Therefore, how to play all Battlefield 6 classes can differ quite a bit depending on which path you head down.

The M2010 ESR has had its muzzle velocity reduced from 900 m/s to 800. The PSR has also seen its muzzle velocity cut to 720 m/s, from 750. Muzzle velocity affects the accuracy at range, and a reduction to that stat means players using these weapons would have to lead targets more at longer ranges. Bullet velocity changes are pretty standard when it comes to balance, especially where Sniper Rifles are concerned.

Battlefield 6 is clearly off to the races if its domination of the Steam charts are any indication. Over the course of its launch weekend, EA's latest and greatest multiplayer shooter put up remarkable numbers, cresting over 740,000 concurrent players regularly. And while the game is still pretty fresh, it has impressively retained a great deal of players at all times, rarely dropping below about 200,000 active players at any given point.

Battlefield 6's rollout on publisher Electronic Arts' own PC app didn't go exactly smoothly, with players left unable to play on launch day. Since then, the issue has since been resolved, and EA is giving out free season passes and XP boosts for those who were impacted. The issue affected players who had pre-ordered Battlefield 6 via the EA App launcher on PC.

One of the nice perks of EA Play and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (which includes EA Play) are 10-hour trials for new releases from EA. It's a good way to try a game before dropping money on buying it. But the free trials are not available for every EA game, including the just-launched Battlefield 6. The game launched today, October 10, and has no free trial, a spokesperson for EA confirmed to GameSpot.

Once Battlefield 6 players start digging into user-created Portal content, they'll find that someone already made a familiar map from Battlefield's biggest competitor. As Portal tools were already available a day before the release of Battlefield 6 itself, creator DANNYonPC took it upon himself to recreate Call of Duty's Shipment map using the Portal editor. In a YouTube video, the creator specified that this version of Shipment is based on the iteration seen in the 2019 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare reboot,

As reported by Eurogamer, a Rendezook dog tag cosmetic is now given to players who successfully jump out of their jet, use a well-placed shot from a bazooka to take out an enemy jet, and then safely return to the jet. It would be an impossible stunt to pull off in real life, but a player who goes by Stun_Gravy discovered it was possible in Battlefield 3 and shared a video to prove it.

The Battlefield 6 release date has finally come around, promising one of the most engaging FPS games experiences in recent memory. With so much hype around the title, it wouldn't be surprising to stumble upon connectivity issues, or long queue times. Whether it's a problem with the game's servers or something to do with your hardware can be difficult to determine, we've got all you need to know about the current Battlefield 6 server status.

Analyst Rhys Elliott of Aliena Analytics said in his newsletter that the game reached 1.8 million pre-sales on Steam alone prior to launch, which works out to more than $100 million in revenue. Right now, Battlefield 6 ranks as the No. 1 best-selling game on Steam in the US and globally. "All signs, at least pre-launch, suggest Battlefield is back in the fight. Our estimates reflect a perfect storm of pent-up demand after years of missteps and a huge potential comeback narrative," he said.

EA executive Rebecka Coutaz, who serves as VP general manager at Criterion and Dice, two of the four studios involved in the development of Battlefield 6, told BBC Newsbeat that there was no GenAI-created content within the final game. Coutaz said that generative AI had been utilised in preparatory stages to allow developers "more time and more space to be creative".

A new challenger has appeared.
