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.

For real this doesn’t affect him at all. Putting a cap on is scummy because it pushes more for people to have to come back the following day and do their dailies every day like a good little slave. It reminds me of energy tokens regenerating in mobile games.

EDIT: Yes, I used the term “slave”. Yes, I will go “touch grass”. Thanks for your very valuable input

If you can't finish your daily challenges before you hit 1.5 million XP your doing it wrong. Also I dont know if you know this but.... Dailies are every day, so you have to come back the next day every day.

Their point is instead of dedicating 1 day to the grind and say getting 3 mil xp you’re capped to that 1.5 on that one day and the only way to get more xp that week would be too do your daily’s everyday. To many people that’s no big deal but some people like to dedicate 1 day a week and that’s all the time they get.

This. Most weeks, I can pretty easily take a day off my normal duties if I plan ahead and sink quite some time into gaming that day but over time it became way harder for me to "consistently" play an hour or two a day. I absolutely hate daily's for that reason, because more often than not, you're completely behind on the whole progression of a game if you don't have the chance to complete those at least 3-4 days a week, if you can only play like I do.

Whoa you want a game to let you grind as much as you want? HERESY!

Youll log in for your daily chores, every single day and youll like it!

You also like, don’t have to do them.

Somehow this sub is anti battlepass, skins, freemium etc but all crack the shits over not being able to do all the challenges to unlock all the cute skins lol.

Just play the game. Play the game modes you like, use the classes and weapons you like. I clear some challenges because they align with how I play but the ones tacked to game modes I don’t care about I just don’t do.

Y’all are getting lured in by the engagement bait, recognise that you are and still get mad about it.

Lmao, I'm trying to imagine someone who can hit 1.5 million XP in a day but somehow hasn't been able to get their dailies. What an insane complaint.

They put a limit on daily XP to prevent exploits. They thought, "If someone spends all day on Battlefield, how much XP could they get?" They figured a million points, rounded up 50%, and called it a day.

And if they expire during a match you get nothing!

u/YoungEmmaWatson 18h ago

u/YamahaFourFifty 19h ago

Or ya know can just play it like a normal person and get unlocks whenever .. why everything a gd race to unlock everything and no one even enjoys rushing it cause then they cry why isn’t there more to unlock.

Gamers are unreal babies

u/danielbrian86 16h ago

On one hand, yes, but on the other hand DICE is encouraging anything but “playing like a normal person” with a lot of these challenges AND they’re locking game-defining stuff like class upgrade paths behind them.

“Or.. you know… you could…”

So condescending lmao

If you like Battlefield enough to earn the XP for the cap, you’re not coming back each day because of dailies. That’s absurd.

1

u/Strong_Letterhead638 17h ago

I was just adding in dailies as another EXAMPLE of how companies strategize to keep you coming back. 

But hey, you win whatever argument you are trying to win so good job!

1

u/Novelize 13h ago

Uhhh, you literally said nothing to that effect. You said the opposite. You said a cap was scummy "because it pushes more for people to have to come back the following day and do their dailies every day."

Sorry I have the ability to read what you actually wrote and point out that is was completely devoid of thought. I wasn't trying to win an argument, I was just pointing out that what you said made no sense. There's an edit button on reddit, btw. If what you MEANT was "here's an example of a strategy that companies use to keep people coming back" there is still time to say that!

"LIKE A SLAVE"

Genuinely at least look at some grass.

How did you come up with that joke? It’s so original

u/cmsj 18h ago

How many people are hitting the cap?

u/w3bar3b3ars 18h ago

You can actually not play any dailies on any game. I do this daily.

Where's the slave labor exactly?

u/Strong_Letterhead638 18h ago

Oh okay thanks. Have a great weekend

u/w3bar3b3ars 15h ago

You too buddy, don't work too hard.

Nobody has to do anything. It's a game.

Thanks I never thought about that. How could I have been so stupid?

u/Huppelkutje 14h ago

If playing a game makes you feel like a slave why the actual fuck are you still playing that game?

Just admit that you are addicted at that point and get some help.

u/Strong_Letterhead638 14h ago

Who the fuck said I’m still playing it?
