Mike Wheeler (@Mike_D_Wheeler) reported@Battlefield FIX THE F... GAME FIRST. **** is broken every other patch. F joke of a dev/QA team. Got my money till this point on you claims to fix it but. that's it. you killed the series.
-
lou (@littlelou050) reportedIt seems to be fairly common for people to refer to where their loved one was deployed as where they died as a reference to that being the cause (illness, injury etc). Military deaths shouldn't just cover the immediate battlefield, but the impact of service overall.

Hamilton (@Debt_Ledger) reportedSouthern Lebanon’s strikes are a cash-flow shock before they are a battlefield update. Marwaniyah, Al-Kharayeb, Hai Al-Masareb, and Meifdoun each add the same bill: repairs, displacement support, insurance repricing. That is how a raid becomes a public-finance problem. Budgets front the damage long before ceasefires do.

Kristian Thyregod (@KThyregod) reported@LostinEU Schröder has access, which is precisely why the issue cannot be laughed away. But the fact that Europe is left debating a compromised ex-chancellor as a channel to Moscow says more about Europe’s diplomatic depletion than about Schröder’s virtues. If the battlefield will not settle this soon, then Europe needs negotiations. And if it needs negotiations, it cannot keep discarding channels faster than it creates them.

🇩🇪 Seruun (@Jaquento) reported@Battlefield Please patch the AMD driver issues. The game literally breaks them and I have to reinstall them every time I try to launch Bf6.

The Deleted Files. (@TheDeletedFiles) reported@matt47871 @lorahmoe I no longer date but when I did, height was never an issue. I was 5'6" in my prime, and my husband was 5'6.5". No big deal. Lying, OTH, is a total deal breaker. Just be honest and be yourself--both parties. Good luck out there. Dating sounds like a battlefield these days.😩

eA Melancholyyy (@MelancholyyyAim) reported@vsdsad25496 @BattlefieldComm It sounds cool in concept however there are already major issues in terms of visibility on this game - I feel like uniforms even as there right now are hard to see at times, greyed out uniforms will make the already grey blobs I get shot at by even more grey and blobby, however this is just my take and I already have poor vision irl.

Ollie Barder (@Cacophanus) reportedThat's my point, instead of tackling the problem directly, the attacks have been going after anything Nintendo does, akin to "salting the battlefield" if you will. It's clearly being done in bad faith.

A1 STONKS (@ACi16o) reported@BattlefieldComm Been matchmaking for more than 5 minutes for ranked BR. Gave up and booted up Warzone. I hate cod but I miss BR and finding matches in less than 30 seconds. I only have a limited time to play, not going to waste it searching for a match (gauntlet has the issue and needs Ranked).

Divyansh Chaudhary (@divvbiz) reportedThere was a point in the 90s where Apple was losing. Not because the products were bad. Because they were competing on the wrong battlefield. Processor speed. RAM. Storage. Price. A comparison shopping war where the lowest number usually wins. And Apple was never going to win that war. So they stopped playing it. The shift didn't happen overnight, but the direction was clear. Apple moved from describing what the product contained to describing what the person using it could become. "It just works" wasn't a feature. It was a relief from the anxiety every other option created. "The tools for creative people" wasn't a spec. It was an identity. It told a specific person that this was built for them, and everything else was built for someone else. "Privacy is a human right" wasn't a product announcement. It was a values position that made the entire competitor set look extractive by comparison. Each repositioning moved Apple further from a category where comparison was easy, and closer to a category where comparison became irrelevant. That's the move most B2B founders never make. I work with service businesses doing genuinely superior work. Stronger process, better results, more experienced teams. And they still get evaluated on price. Not because buyers don't care about quality. Because the positioning language describes the activity, not the outcome. "We do paid media" invites comparison with every other agency that does paid media. "We build predictable revenue pipelines for B2B SaaS companies between $1M and $5M ARR" describes a specific outcome for a specific person with a specific problem. One is a category. The other is almost a category of one. The question I ask founders trying to find their own version of "it just works" is simple: → What is the anxiety your best clients had before working with you? → What is the specific outcome they can now count on? → What does working with you make them feel capable of that they couldn't before? Apple didn't invent better computers. They invented a clearer answer to the question their buyer was actually asking. Most B2B founders are answering a question their buyer stopped asking a long time ago. The product is rarely the problem. The positioning language almost always is.

MiloMan (@FlowMiloo) reported@MM16980096 @8LOGICIAN @parti_king And? There are no official Continental Army or detailed military records of their combat service. Most of what we know comes from later anecdotal accounts, oral tradition, and post-war honors. They saw little to no significant battlefield action.

Paul Mckeown (@Gopolog86) reported@BattlefieldComm Fix the ******* lag since the last update! Never known a game to get worse with each update

papertinsel (@papertinsel) reported@MehrnewsCom Rational choice stipulates having access to valid information to take optimal decision . It doesn't even work, because information cannot never be summed up accurately . If anything here, you are lagging behind, and confuse Diplomacy with the battlefield, enforcing para-logic ..

Will 🎮 Ki11RockNRo11 (@KRNRGaming) reportedAlmost a year into the games life span and bullet dispersion is still a major problem but @EA_DICE nerfed controller recoil. Why on God's green earth did you idiots do that? To make console players suffer against PC players MORE? Are you dumb or just stupid? #Battlefield6

Mae🐀 (@k9nnibal) reportedtime to touch grass or something i guess it still works? display, keyboard and trackpad dont work at all but external devices are still fine keyboard not working includes the power button tho so like if i turn it off now is it gg? guessing battlefield 6 actually cooked the mobo

XXIM Podcast (@xximpod) reportedMore cryptocurrencies will collapse in 2026 + a few hedge funds. Two reasons 1) In 2025, a staggering 11.6 million crypto failed, we will see continuation this year - What started as a revolution (against broken monetary system) has turned into an ego-driven battlefield and token pumps 2) Thin global liquidity, this is part of the broader liquidity crisis we’ve seen unfolding since 2023, mass deleveraging, and repeated liquidation cascades exposing the fragility of the space, crypto was supposed to create an alternative channel to traditional system, instead it itself got tied fully into it. Ofcouse we will see Ups / down along the way, but yes more and more concentration will happen in handful of crypto / handful of stocks.

Will Paisley (@TPPIceman) reported@_yanssii Its a pretty realistic showing of someone being drawn back to service. Shin especially suffers from a load of survivors guilt, and outside of combat his percieved purpose as the reaper is gone. Theres a lot of reasons why the battlefield calls, but it was a good representation

☃️ (@brrtxd) reported@BattlefieldComm The addition of displaying jet speed in knots is cool aesthetically, but currently meaningless because there is no real speed management gameplay in the current flight model. Looking at your speed barely matters when the game does not reward proper speed control in the first place. ================================================== HELICOPTER 1V1 SKILL GAP ================================================== Little Bird 1v1s also still suffer from an extremely low skill gap because of the miniguns. Pilot snipes happen constantly due to the combination of high spread and very high damage. Players do not need precise aim — they just spray in the general direction of the helicopter and randomly kill the pilot. As a result, equal-height Little Bird fights often feel extremely random and 50/50 instead of skill-based. A much healthier system would be Battlefield 4-style miniguns with high accuracy and precision. That would reward intentional pilot snipes instead of random luck. It would also make the Little Bird less frustrating for infantry because poor players would no longer be able to farm so easily with inaccurate high-damage spray. ================================================== TANKS, MOBILE AA, AND DEPLOYMENT CAMPING ================================================== Another issue that still was not addressed is tanks camping near their deployment C-RAM. Currently tanks can sit next to the C-RAM, have incoming projectiles deleted, and still fire outward safely from deployment. Either the C-RAM should destroy both friendly and enemy projectiles, or tanks simply should not be allowed to fire while inside deployment. This situation helps nobody. Instead of pushing objectives and supporting infantry, tanks are encouraged to sit in deployment acting as anti-air platforms with effectively zero risk. A tank should not be able to sit inside deployment and endlessly spam TOWs with no possible counterplay. The same issue exists with Mobile AA. The problem is not that Mobile AA is overpowered. Its weapons are already strong enough to counter jets and helicopters effectively. The real issue is that it is far too easy and rewarding for Mobile AA players to simply camp in deployment where they are almost impossible to punish while still having lock-on range over most of the map. Mobile AA honestly could even use slight buffs in areas like survivability or maneuverability, but its cannons and lock-ons are already strong enough already. The problem is deployment camping, not lack of power. ================================================== ENGINEER SPECIALIZATION CHANGES ================================================== The Combat Engineer overheat perk nerf is also completely unnecessary. Reducing the Overheat Control perk from 50% slower overheat to only 10% is an enormous nerf to a perk that was never even a problem to begin with. This feels like another unnecessary anti-vehicle nerf instead of addressing the actual gameplay issues affecting vehicle balance. ================================================== FINAL THOUGHTS ================================================== Again, this is not about pilots wanting to go 100-0 with no counters. There absolutely should be strong counterplay against air vehicles. The problem is that the actual air-versus-air gameplay currently has almost no meaningful depth, counterplay, or skill expression. Right now: - jet dogfights are too fast and too unforgiving - helicopter fights are too random - awareness tools are missing - several mechanics reward spam or luck more than mastery - and painting has become far too dominant against vehicles Ground-to-air balance still has issues too, especially with deployment camping and painting mechanics, but the biggest long-term problem is that air combat itself simply is not very skill-based right now. This update is a good start, and I appreciate that vehicle balance is finally getting attention, but it’s not good enough.

That Gundam Autist (@Gundautism) reported@corgilifematter @DreamReality Honestly I don't think a PVE mode solves the issues the game is facing. Games like COD have a massive following for a mostly PvP exclusive game (though it's apples to oranges so they can't quite be compared.) same with Fortnite, battlefield, and a lot of other shooters The issue I see is that the game becomes fundamentally more boring with only PvE. Bots aren't a challenge once you understand how they behave and they are honestly pretty unfun to fight. The problem is that you lose stakes when you move to pve only. I do agree with you that there needs to be more pve in the game, but I don't think a PVE exclusive mode is really the play imo. It will just fracture the population and dull the sensation of what makes extraction shooters thrilling. It's seen with the dropoff of Arc Raiders. The fact that it is more PvE focused and the ABMM turns a subsection of the mode into PvE exclusive. It gets boring quickly and hurts player retention, that coupled with 0 wipes means that eventually, there will be no imposed reason to play the game besides the enjoyment of the gameplay loop. It would be worse for Marathon imo. I def agree that they need to incorporate more PvE, but I don't think an exclusive PvE mode is the play

TheTopMostDog 🇦🇺🐕🦺🏕️🎣🔫🪓🥩 (@TheTopMostDog) reported@Battlefield No idea how you guys can think that the first person vehicle FOV is acceptable, especially in vehicles where you're still just your soldier in a seat. Same thing happens on a ladder. This has been in every frostbite title; I'm pretty sure you don't actually know how to fix it.

Stanislav Gryshyn (@stas_gryshyn) reported@shashj the trust problem hasn't gone away - from the operator side in Ukraine, the same dynamic plays out at tactical level: crews override AI targeting cues when gut disagrees, sometimes right, sometimes not, building that calibration takes time the battlefield doesn't give you

Mythion ᯅ (@MythionVR) reported@Lucky33865278 @Ramez05 Remedy is in trouble after Alan Wake 2, South of Midnight didn't do well, Thief ruined the franchise, AC Shadows... LOL, Deathloop? Battlefield V was a flop, Spiderman 2 was as well, Hardline? What. Why is Space Marine II in there? DUSTBORN??? Okay this is absolutely not a serious list.

Ted Benard Odote (@bodoteafrica) reported from Nairobi, Nairobi AreaAn entrepreneur must eventually choose a battlefield and dominate it like survival depends on it — because many times it does. There comes a stage where politeness, hesitation, and “trying many things” must end. You pick one lane. One problem. One market. One obsession. Then you attack it daily until customers, suppliers, financiers, competitors, regulators, and the market itself begin adjusting around your presence. The businesses that win are rarely passive. They impose standards. They impose speed. They impose distribution. They impose visibility. They impose reliability. They become impossible to ignore. At some point it quietly becomes: “If you want this solved properly, you go through them.” Not because they begged for attention — but because they outworked, outlasted, outlearned, out-positioned, out-networked, and out-executed everyone else long enough for the market to surrender. That is dominion in business. Not noise. Not arrogance. Not empty motivation. Relentless relevance. A stage where your execution becomes so consistent that suppliers prioritize you, customers default to you, talent wants to work with you, capital looks for you, and competitors are forced to react to you. In the end, markets reward force of value. The Thinking Rhino 🦏 | ONAGI ODOTE

Dragon Outlaw99 (@BreakerOutlaw99) reported@Battlefield Fix the portal the way it was at launch. You only need one player to start a matchup. The server the players create should not be 4 players required, and the bots fill in empty maps up to 64 in any game mode. Not only 12 bots fill up on both teams and that sucks.

Grok (@grok) reported@oohmardeyforyou @kusowarataww The Mercari listing is for this creepy wooden cat/tanuki statue with a "cursed heirloom" backstory: Grandpa brought it from the battlefield. Family members suffered ear problems/deafness, one had an ear ripped off in an accident, and grandma's mom hanged herself. Seller dropped price from ¥10k to ¥7k claiming it's "probably fine." A YouTuber ("Bakuso Rocket") bought it, posted a video "spending one night with the cursed figurine," then his channel went silent. Classic cursed item meme.

ToOdAmEEzZ (@Slay3r881) reported@Battlefield Seriously it’s 2026 ya need to stat dropping more then just one map. This live service thing isn’t it I would rather have premium back with multiple maps and weapons. Stop being greedy and get ya **** together
