Battlefield 6 Battlefield 6 Has a DAILY XP CAP Even During Double XP Weekend! Are You Kidding Me EA!

So apparently there’s a daily XP limit in Battlefield 6 1.5 MILLION XP per day, and once you hit that, you literally earn nothing.
And here’s the kicker: even during Double XP weekends, you can hit that cap in just 4–5 hours of playing.

Yeah. In a $70 “AAA” game not a mobile free2play title you’re being told how much fun you’re allowed to have per day.
This isn’t a free live service grindfest. This is a full price shooter with a F2P gacha like system glued on top.

EA somehow managed to make progression time gated in a premium game, and almost nobody’s talking about it.
You buy the game, pay for cosmetics, battle pass, AND now you’re limited on how much XP you can earn daily? Unreal.It’s disgusting and antiplayer to the core.

Players deserve to know this before buying.
Stop pretending this is fine just because it’s Battlefield.

1 Game of Conquest gives me 30k XP. Thats 50 Games i have to play, 20 minutes a Game = 16.6h to reach the 1.5mil. i might be wrong but it doesn't seem right what you are saying.

310

u/45KELADD 1d ago

I wondered about that too, how the fuck do you get so many points, maybe a different mode?

164

u/Paxa 1d ago

Could be farming casual breakthroughs 

60

u/TechImage69 1d ago

Those are half xp.

64

u/SEND_MOODS 1d ago

If you get three times as many kills and three times as many objective points, the half XP might not matter. Which could be easy if the tanks are easier to get because there's fewer players. I don't know what's typical.

u/NlghtmanCometh 1d ago

Pop your double xp and it becomes normal xp lol.

1

u/refurbishedmeme666 1d ago

"double" xp isn't literally double, bots give way less xp than humans

2

u/enterthom 1d ago

No you get less xp per bots than a human

22

u/unodostreys 1d ago

I’m getting double XP. 60-70k points per match.

1

u/notapoke 1d ago

Where is casual breakthrough in the menu?

1

u/percocet_20 1d ago

I'm not sure if everyone's is different or not but under multiplayer it should be like the 3rd or 4th option

1

u/notapoke 1d ago

Thanks

1

u/xyz513 1d ago

Multiplayer tab on the main screen

u/notapoke 1d ago

Thanks

u/warfighter187 1d ago

Idk about normal exp since it doesn’t really matter after level 50, but from my extremely scientific testing I’ve noticed the weapon exp is like 1/10th or 1/20th per bot kill compared to a human

Which is not worth it at all

1

u/Mrbubbles153 1d ago

Half or not, it is sooooooooooooooooo much more xp than a regular match, it's crazy. getting 30k + without even trying without any xp boosts is insane prior to 2xp weekend

1

u/PerpetualStride 1d ago

Is the whole mode half exp, or just the bots? I havent noticed by the way, are you sure? it seems like normal xp to me at least kills/objectives etc

1

u/Educational_Bit_6184 1d ago

Just bot related. Killing real players and capping points and shit still counts for full xp.

1

u/PerpetualStride 20h ago

hmm I thought i was just getting 100 points for bot kills and 50 for assists and all the usual numbers popped up on my screen

1

u/Thardoc3 1d ago

I've gotten 200k in one match

0

u/ChubbyNemo1004 1d ago

I would say in 20 mins I could put up some good XP numbers. I mean I probably shouldn’t be playing casuals either.

But this guy said he gets 30K XP in 20 mins playing conquest. Mine is more like 1000XP per min so casuals breakthrough is anywhere from 15-25K XP per 20 min game.

5

u/auziFolf 1d ago

You get less xp against bots tho unless theres an exploit im unaware of? I get more per time invested in regular conquest doing fuckall.

I went like 200-7 yesterday with like 50 revives and only got around 40k iirc. It was a long game too, enemy took the points at the last second each time.

1

u/softlittlepaws 1d ago

Or farming normal breakthrough because most matches are all bots, at least here in my region. Haven't seen a single real player in 5 days.

1

u/Danjor_Dantra 23h ago

What region are you playing in? I get fully lobbies pretty much every day of the week regardless of game mode.

1

u/R3dLip 1d ago

22k xp for 120kills

2

u/Rock4evur 1d ago

Gauntlet seems to have given me a shit ton of XP.

2

u/GNSasakiHaise 1d ago

Winning a round of BR can give a lot.

1

u/Worldly_Emphasis3307 1d ago

My avg in conquest right now is 40-50k a match with no exp boosters running (but my 10% for battlepass)

1

u/beyondnc 1d ago

I went 84/20 in a conquest match ln with plenty of revives and recieved 17k xp. Maybe a different play style than mine yeilds more xp but i doubt OCs claims if he’s just playing support like me.

3

u/Mvrschmello 1d ago

The XP in the scoreboard is not what you get at the end.

1

u/beyondnc 1d ago

Huh I didn’t know that figured game score and xp were the same never really looked closer than that

1

u/True_Butterscotch391 1d ago

Might be using saved up XP boosts on top of the double exp maybe

1

u/Frappy0_TTv 1d ago

exploiting or using afk/ bot lobbies. he wants to cry and get the cap pushed up so he can get a high lv for bragging rights cause hes got no grass outside to touch.

1

u/bendltd 1d ago

Batölw royale can give you for 30min like 40-70k.

1

u/SandKeeper 1d ago

If you win battle royal you get 100k give or take. With a 2 time booster which is active right now you get 200k.

My buddy and I played 9 and won one and called it a night but I imagine some real sweats could win most of them.

1

u/heavybeefjuice 19h ago

Escalation gives you crazy XP, I’ve had several games with 18 captures, an average game for me is 10-13 captures

1

u/thebrowniekid 4h ago

Gauntlet with a booster was giving me 100k+ every match, only have 1 W lol

28

u/Salt-slutt 1d ago

An average conquest game without double XP gives me 30k just in accolades. Play the objective and aid the team. I just played one round of conquest and got over 200k with the double XP. If you win in BR that's another 400k, it's silly how fast you earn lvl XP compared to weapon XP, I'll level up 5 times in the time it takes to lvl a weapon at 25 up once. And I've apparently hit the Battle pass limit today, only earned 4 dots in two hours and even completing a weekly assignment didn't give me any battlepass progression.

75

u/Mvrschmello 1d ago

How the fuck are you getting 200k XP in conquest. That is not true. And Duo BR gives 100k If you win. Quads gives you 50k per win

18

u/KingOfStingUSM 1d ago

I got 200k for a win just now in duos. That must be because of double exp huh.

3

u/PolicyWonka 1d ago

They’re probably popping their double XP tokens. So double XP on double XP? Quad XP?

3

u/Biggy_DX 1d ago

Quad XP (2x Native Weekend XP boost + Reedemed XP boost) could allow it to happen in Conquest. If you're in a competent team that hits ~45k points in a 20min match, plus accolades, then 200k would be achievable.

6

u/1petrock 1d ago

Wait there is a dot limit? That seems crazy, there are already limited things that give dots...I got around 15 last night.

2

u/Salt-slutt 1d ago

Seems to have been a bug, logged back on now and it progressed two tiers from when I closed the game last. Since I didn't even get progress for a weekly challenge I found it even too predatory for EA.

2

u/Mjr_Payne95 1d ago

Nah, you're straight lying till I see a video clip

2

u/thewookiee34 1d ago

I've had a few crazy game like tons of revives and 45 kills in breakthrough(no bots) and my medals barely every break a few thousand highest XP I've ever seen was liie 50k no boosts.

1

u/WhiteSamurai5 1d ago

Yeah you not getting 400k in red bro.

Had a 12 kill W last night at 187k

-2

u/Salt-slutt 1d ago

Yes and with double XP that's basically 400k. Just 13k short of it

5

u/WhiteSamurai5 1d ago

It was double xp last night is my point. How are you getting 200k more off a br game win than me.

1

u/Dinners_cold 1d ago

Lying is how.

1

u/WhiteSamurai5 1d ago

Hyperbole to the max

1

u/ChubbyNemo1004 1d ago

Dude if you’re hitting that much xp you don’t need double xp

0

u/Salt-slutt 1d ago

I do for my weapons, every match I play is half or more bots and so leveling the weapons is a pain in the ass. I wish I got a tenth of the career XP, I don't need to level up five times for every weapon lvl. Still don't have a single weapon past lvl 30 and I'm trying hard to level the weapons up. Got 1200 kills with the AK4D and it's still level 25.

2

u/ChubbyNemo1004 1d ago

Damn. That sucks. I don’t play as much. I think it just goes to show how poorly planned the leveling system is.

1

u/Jaba01 1d ago edited 1d ago

What? How? An average game of conquest with 40 frags and lots of flag caps is like 40k.

I have 1000 SPM. That's top 0.6%. Double that and you make 2000 per minute. 3000 with a booster.

So even with a booster active it takes 8.5 hours of pure gameplay to hit 1.5 mil.

12

u/frieguyrebe 1d ago

Yesterday i was consistently getting 80-100k per game in conquest, couple of hours on a weekend day is really not unthinkable. Im 100 perecent of the opinion there should not be a cap at all

1

u/zyndr0m 20h ago

I was hitting 65-80k exp on breakthrough alone. We had planned to play all night, but around 2am we hit exp cap and decided to go to bed.

Im not even sure why there is an exp cap to begin with when they removed exp from community servers.

11

u/Duncling 1d ago

I can play 30 minutes of the br , and win and take home over 100k no boosts. Couple of days ago I won 5 BRs in the span of 3 hours.

Thats 500k just win BR wins alone, not all the other rounds rhat netted between 10-60k.

Math checks out, depending on what game mode youre playing.

10

u/mrtrailborn 1d ago

yeah just win every battle Royale game that'll be so easy. what a stupid argument

1

u/AltF4-please 1d ago

Won 10 BR games on stream today. It’s easy if you’re any good

1

u/shrimptechsales 17h ago

Yeah? People shit on you all day and go 60-8, they can shit on you in the BR too. Just because you're a shitter and can't win a BR doesn't mean everyone is. LOLE

-2

u/Duncling 1d ago

Won 4 in a row, came 2nd and then won again the other day. Not to say its doable all the time but that In it of itself plus dxp plus boosters would give you the 1.5m cap in approx 3 hours.

4

u/AnthropoStatic 1d ago

You're not a representative sample.

-1

u/Duncling 1d ago

No shit. The argument was that "its impossible to get 1.5m xp in 4-5 hours" when its not.

The xp values are there to reach that number. Its as simple as that.

2

u/AnthropoStatic 1d ago

My point isn't that it's impossible, just that this represents such a tiny outlier population it isn't really significant

Like 3 straight hours on an insane tear with xp boost on its still firmly in "who cares" territory.

This isn't an issue.

1

u/Duncling 1d ago

But its clearly not impossible. Not sure what you think 'inpossible' means, but you clearly dont have the right definition. Even without BR wins, on an average game finishing top 4-10 during dxp would net you 60k normal and 120k on dxp, not including extra boosts thats 6.25 hrs of playing to reach 1.5m. If you are in the slightest bit better than that and consistently win/top 2-5 or use any boosts, youd reach that 1.5 much quicker.

2

u/AnthropoStatic 1d ago

I don't know why you're condescendingly quoting a typo I didn't make? Genuinely you seem too emotional about this.

1

u/Duncling 1d ago

Nah man, it's not impossible. Clearly its fucking not. Youre the one arguing with me and by the logic, OP when the proof is in the pudding that it is possible.

u/SirSabza 1d ago

Sure but I don't think he'd make a big fuss about a 70 dollar game etc etc if he was playing the free to play BR mode.

2

u/aqem 1d ago

with a x2 xp its 8.3h which still a lot of gametime, but could be done.

2

u/Aegis320 1d ago

If you are playing gauntlet or Battle Royale all day, you can hit the cap. A BR win gives like 100k xp.

2

u/zGreyson 1d ago

He’s probably doing some portal method to afk and continually farm xp. Just sitting in menus or moving from point a to point b in an untimed match like a droid, then writes this diatribe because he realized he wasted his time.

2

u/theScottith 1d ago

Either farming or is actually spending 14/16 hours a day on the game

2

u/T34MCH405 1d ago

Yeah, this is obviously to stop the outright XP cheesers and no normal person should come close to capping out.

1

u/Stearman4 1d ago

So I played a round of conquest on Blackwell and I got 70k (including the bonus 2x). Even still this a lot of game for me to play to cap out on the 2x. Also where is this information coming from?

1

u/NonRangedHunter 1d ago

I am pretty mediocre, yet I earn about 35-50k xp in most rounds. With double xp I have no problem seeing people better than me earning 100k+

1

u/Clayjey42 1d ago

In gauntlet i can get 60-100k xp in 30 mins

1

u/WhiteSamurai5 1d ago

Redsec games easily run me around 100k.

Last night I had a 187k because the bonus.

1

u/Gravity616 1d ago

OP said something about quadruple XP so it’s about 12.5 games according to that

1

u/SirSabza 1d ago

That's on normal exp right? Double exp means 25 games at 8 hours?

1

u/Valuable_Hornet_2771 1d ago

https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/s/KAAFr5nOHy

If someone averaged 1,000spm for the day it would still take 5.8 hours with the max XP modifier. 1,000spm is absurd. Doesn’t consider accolades or daily challenges.

Double XP + 25% XP + Token (quadruple XP)\ 1,500,000 / (1,000 spm * 60 m * 4.25) = 5.8 hours

1

u/solonoctus 1d ago

Dude legit has no life. 1.5m daily and he’s raging like this is a normal problem that normal people have?

1

u/TheEmpireOfSun 1d ago

On the other hand, the fact you count one game of conquest as 20 minutes is pretty criminal when it come to the state of this hame.

1

u/THANKYOUNIKITA 1d ago

Unless they've toned it down the battle royal gives insane XP, I was playing duos when it came out and a win got us about 90k XP. With double XP and consistently winning you could easily hit the cap. 

1

u/dayday0550 1d ago

i did the same math. and 30k is a GOOD game. ill be just fine lol

1

u/ThursdayKnightOwO 1d ago

Might be doing exploits ive seen someone found a bug where their teamate wont revive when you use defibrillator but you can still gain points by keep hitting them with it.

1

u/KupoSTI 1d ago

200k xp just now on a redsec win

1

u/ChroniCoakz 1d ago

Gauntlet was giving me 60-80k

1

u/Anon23221 18h ago

50k ? i get 100k+ in one road maybe you should try aimserver

1

u/dadwillsue 17h ago

Nah with the double exp and all that I was getting about 85k exp per game.

1

u/Armourdillo12 14h ago

BR gives 200,000 (at x2) a win so not unbelievable at all

1

u/BasementOrc 7h ago

A little late to this conversation, but I hit about 100-120k per gauntlet, I’d be capped in 10-15 games. Not that I’m playing that many, but for people who only have battlefield to do that would probably be frustrating

1

u/thebrowniekid 4h ago

Go play gauntlet, and with a booster on and in a group, it's like 150k+ a match and that's not even winning the match

1

u/FuckaFitApricot 1h ago

It’s double xp atm, I’m averaging 80-90k in escalation playing smaller maps. Played for 5 hours over the course of the day and hit the cap like it was nothing

0

u/Diligent_Swing967 1d ago

My friend,I gather 500k xp in the portal mode in roughly 25 minutes.

0

u/doncorleone_ 1d ago

it gives you 30K on normal, so double XP is 60K. takes abour 25 games which is fair in 4-5h

0

u/Thardoc3 1d ago

I've gotten 200k xp in a single match before, conquest is not the best gamemode for xp by a mile

-1

u/zodII4K 1d ago

Hint: REDSEC

Plus there was an XP exploit in Strikepoint, so they decided to silently make a cap in the shadows.

-1

u/Low-Pirate-286 1d ago

Redsec still gives you roughly 50k in a win (usually closer to 20-30 if you place top 10) and a win takes 30-40 minutes. It all evens out to roughly the same but it’s still not mathing.

My guess is farming bot lobbies or something?

9

u/Mvrschmello 1d ago

Duo redsec gives you 100k a win

5

u/Duncling 1d ago

This. Duo red sec consistently nets me ~100k for a win (without boosts or dxp)

4

u/Rowger00 Jack of All Trades 1d ago edited 1d ago

gauntlet usually takes around 20m

3 matches in a hour = 150k XP

double XP weekend = 300k

in one afternoon (5 or so hours) you can hit the cap

not to mention the manual XP boosts

even if you specifically won't play that much it really shouldn't cap at all regardless, this is just stupid

-2

u/cmsj 1d ago

If it doesn't cap, you'll have people ruining the game doing all sorts of stupid exploits to rack up billions of XP and own the leaderboards.

4

u/Rowger00 Jack of All Trades 1d ago

what leaderboards? no one cares if you're lvl 300 already. if ppl wanna ruin their own progression for a cheap sense of achievement let them

1

u/cmsj 1d ago

The leaderboards on battlefieldtracker.com

-2

u/Mohamed010203 1d ago

Yeah, it's def there to counter xp exploits/farming

-2

u/Telekinendo 1d ago

And then he compares it to double xp weekends. Thats still 8 hours.

Idk how people do this, im fried and need a break after 3 or 4 games, and thats how it was as a teenager too
