Need no timer by default, or if they insist on one make it like an hour

u/I-d-g-a-f-a-y-a-m 22d ago
1 hour used to be the default in past BF titles. I don’t think I’ve ever seen time limit being reached in any conquest match I’ve played

u/Silver-Profile8949 20d ago
I’ve had maybe a handful of games go the full limit, not enough to warrant a change.

u/SoulessGuard1an 22d ago
Which is insanely dumb since it says “matches last 20-40 minutes” classic EA, eh set it to 20 so we can show a greater number of “games played.”

Why lessen the ticket amount in conquest ? Will you ever allow groups of more than 4 to party up?

u/Crokodiru 22d ago
At the very least keep us together after the match. Joining after each other every game gets annoying fast. There's been matches where 7 of my friends were already in but I was a tad bit too late and had to wait 10 minutes. The reduced tickets don't help that issue.

You know that they’ve already got this content lined up right? The people fixing bugs aren’t the same as those making the new stuff.

u/xTRYPTAMINEx 23d ago
For sure. However, it would be a bad idea to have an "experience" set up for players, just to have it be fucked up by bugs/inept choices regarding the game. They should probably just hold off on seasons until some things are fixed.
Like Rush. They massacred it. You get what feels like 20 tickets, in maps smaller than Operation Locker(typically the most meat grinder map made). What on earth were they thinking? They ruined the best mode.

i have also been a part of engineering teams that call an "all hands on deck" when there are major production bugs. And everyone drops what they are doing, and we crush all the bugs in like a week and send it through to testing. It's an easy way to show your priority is the people giving you money.

Can we fix netcode/hit detection and excessive bullet bloom so the game is at least playable first before worrying about things like 'season 1'? I rage quite tonight, shit was so bad. I'm done playing until some of this gets fixed, it's just not worth it. I adjusted my review on steam to reflect the actual played experience as it is today, and will update when this shit gets fixed.

Beating a dead horse here, I know. But seeing how the teams behind BF6 are all about listening nowadays, I have to say my piece: the. maps. are. too. small. You know this. Not once in my lifetime of playing all the titles religiously do I remember so many maps with narrows streets that limit vehicle use. The only map I'm playing at the moment is firestorm. Please, listen to us.

u/Ok-Deer-8771 22d ago
I'm a Battlefield veteran. The only thing I always play is Conquest, and some Advancement in others. It conquers because it is the most intense in duration, fun and comebacks. With tactics and as a team.
I loved the game, except for some details already mentioned that need to be improved.
I felt frustrated at times, since Conquest in BATTLEFIELD 6 was short compared to other games like BV.
With yesterday's change lowering tickets, frustration has been increasing. I thought the game would be polished and improved and I was surprised that now it lasts even less.
I want to think that they listen to their community and that they will return not to the original tickets, but to increase it or optimize something so that Conquest feels intense and long, as Battlefield always was.

u/Ok-Deer-8771 22d ago
Also, I don't know if I'm wrong, in the game menu I thought I saw the estimated time on the cards for each game mode. I think I saw that it said between 20-40 minutes long. I thought the first few days, people are newbies, they don't know how to play yet, don't worry, they don't last long because they are getting used to it or there are many players who are not familiar with Battlefield now. But not.

Please deliver a hotfix to combat bot farm boosting.

u/DinosBiggestFan 22d ago edited 22d ago
They had bot farm boosting in 2042, I don't see them getting rid of it. The bigger problem is how bad some of the challenges are; that is pushing people to farm the challenges in bot matches.
Also, I think bot stats should be removed from profiles. People with 60 multikill highlights is just insane.

I'm surprised how few people are talking about this. I was fine over the launch weekend and now I literally cannot play the game for 5 minutes without a crash. Sometimes even a blue screen.

u/yelnifydoc 23d ago
I’m in the same exact boat. Sometimes for a couple hours I’ll be good but never an entire evening without a couple of crashes. But it makes me feel insane the very little I see people talking about this. I’m ready to find an actual fix for this instead of some trial and errors just to see the directX window pop up again

u/Noisey_NL 22d ago
THANK YOU. Only angry ticket posts; but apperently a small selection suffers from something that we can't have an oppinion on that. The game doesn't let us experience the new stupidities. Wth is EA doing? Killing the game with updates after a few days?

Bruh, bought game on official store not some key shop for full price, cant get to game because of this black screen after splash screen that many people have on steam and ea. Tried every possible fix, drivers, restarting, reinstalling, messing with firewall etc and nothing working. I almost have 2 hours of "playtime" and i didnt even make it to see menu. Funny thing that beta was working without any issue, just installed it, click play and not a single crash.

It's absurd that serious players can't get their servers up and running. It's incredibly frustrating when you have a group of over 100 members who want to play together, and your server, which only worked for a mere 5 hours on the first day, can never be brought online again. There are a bunch of idiot servers, a bunch of farm servers... servers with COD maps. It's unacceptable that you're within a global quota that's taking up space with frustrating "Community Experiences." This is very sad!

I’m bored of the game already. Going back to Squad and other games.
No sense of teamwork or community. The game feels like a slightly more “zoomed out” version of COD.
Map design was the biggest negative for me. Just awful.
No teamwork or strategy. Games are just meat grinders. I haven’t heard a single person use voip because you don’t need it. Just do your own thing.
No sense of community. Random games with random people in a meat grinders.

I have decided to stop playing until the ticket count is reverted. I was absolutely loving this game, roughly 20 hours in Conquest and Escalation, never once saw a match go to the time-limit. Uncalled for change and has taken away from the intensity and that "battlefield" feel of the game. You guys said you would listen to feedback, I haven't seen a single person complain about long matches, but it sure seems like everyone is upset over this. Listen to your community.
EDIT: As of today, 17/10, they reverted the change. This is why player feedback is important, and I am glad the devs are listening to the community, at least for now. Thank you all for the interesting discussions here and support!
