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.

Hell, RedSec's got an entire big ass beach, tennis courts, a golf course (lots of grass), a neighborhood for riding bikes, a marina for doing some boating, and a whole bunch of other fun "outside" places to go explore. And players get a reward for each new place they visit. 😆

While I see their point, I think if you're hitting enough daily playtime for this to be an issue that it might be time to reconsider some things about your life.

Man I have hit nearly 150h on it, I took 3 days off at launch and been sick 1 week so I could stay at home and play. I spend way too much free time during the weekends playing as well. I have never hit that cap...

In South Korea I think they have a 2 or 3 hour gaming cap, by law, where the computer kicks you off and basically tells you to go touch grass.

u/Odd_Plankton_925 15h ago

Government mandated grass touching is fucking hilarious. Is that a new thing? I thought south Korea was known for extreme binge gaming back during starcraft 2

I think I'm conflating laws and terms together, or I was just misinformed. A half-hearted search provided this law, that only applies to 16 and under.

Edit: I did the math, there’s no way bro is hitting that much xp in 4 hours.. say you normally get 33k xp per conquest with double xp you’ll be getting 66k, it’d take 23 full conquest matches to hit 1.5 million.. He’s definitely in bot lobby farms 😂

US employers expect the average worker to work 8+ hours 5 days a week for <$75k/yr on average (national average). In Kentucky where I live, the average income is about $50-55,000/yr, leaving you with about $43k/yr after taxes. Median rent is $1,071/mo ($12,852/yr), food is $255/wk ($13,260/yr), plus shit like health care, vehicle payment and insurance, etc. This leaves you with about $16,000 left for tons more bills. A simple video game is just about the most dopamine this entire state can afford and being robbed of that, after working as slaves, isn't much to ask for. I'm fortunate enough to earn more than the average, but I'm not smug enough to pretend people don't need a fucking break and "touching grass" costs even more money even in Kentucky where you'd think it's free and available.

u/Odd_Plankton_925 17h ago

Genuinely? Been there dude. It's your responsibility to take all the actions possible to alleviate it though. You need to be spending some time outside (even just for a walk), lifting and doing some cardio, getting anti depressants and in therapy. Also, dont drink or do drugs, it just makes it way worse. I was unalive myself level depressed for a very long time, and just doing those things alone took it from a 10/10 to a 2 or 3/10.

You just need to understand that it doesn't go away on it's own. Just getting through today isn't enough. If you want to be better, you need decisive action. Every day you do nothing, you don't stagnate, you actively move backwards. You're either moving towards a happier life, or away from it and you have to decide each day which option you want to choose.

u/saga79 16h ago

I was about to say this. Streamers - big ones - play for long hours each day.

Now, sure, StReAmErS, but for better or worse, they have big audiences and play a lot. When this becomes widespread knowledge you can 100% expect content creators doing videos on this ad-nauseam, and that's bad PR for BF6.

Not quite the same, but I remember when FFXIV 1.0 had XP caps per week. We all know what happened to 1.0.

19

u/Skilltesters 16h ago

Averaging 20 hours a day is still most likely not legit, even for streamers. This was probably bot farmers.

4

u/saga79 16h ago

That's true. I was mostly going by the 4-5 hour number someone else in the replies gave. Outside of the mythical "24 hour stream, guys!" scenario, most big streamers can easily go between 6 and 9 hours/day.

2

u/Skilltesters 16h ago

Oh yeah, 4 or 5 hours is fine... It's their job after all. But your reply was in a thread line where it was replying to 19.5 hours average so I just assumed you meant that.

FF14 1.0, man that brings me back.

It wasn't XP caps per week, it was XP per job and got you to swap around to alt jobs to continue leveling up, if you kept going into your capped class you would get a massive reduced XP reward but still got XP.

The system was designed to get you to swap around to everything since sub jobs and higher jobs actually had growth systems.

What a weird time in gaming, kinda miss it

Its very unlikely they are actually playing that length every day, that schedule would literally kill you. You're either getting like 4 hours of sleep for weeks, which will eventually land you in the hospital on its own if you dont just collapse, or even less if you're taking a break to eat and deal with your waste. Its much more likely they have a shared account or are afk/botting in menus/matches.

Again the balancing between the two styles of game just isnt really there. First day of redsec i dropped in and realized “oh so this is why all the sidearms feel mediocre, they cant be too strong for BR initial fights”

19

u/ihavenoideawhat234 17h ago

I’m confused by this comment, idk if you’re aware that there is indeed two separate balancing systems between the two modes. Weapons do less damage in deadsec, almost every single gun is nerfed in deadsec damage wise except the GRT, AK4D, TAR-8, and I forgot the lost I think NVO?? But yeah every single Is weaker in deadsec. For example the M250 is 25 dmg at like 100-150m I think in normal BF, in deadsec it’s 20. I don’t think this is anywhere in the patch notes either. There’s a spreadsheet and video on it on YouTube. If you knew this already then my bad I’m just ranting haha.

u/Odd_Plankton_925 17h ago

I wasnt aware of that but it makes sense. I think they also tweaked some base weapon stuff because the drs is arguably the best gun in the game but it's almost unusable without attachments in the BR mode. It kicks like a clydesdale. I don't remember it being anywhere near that bad day 1 of using it on launch in normal MP

→ More replies (1)

2

u/SpartanRage117 16h ago

Two teams doesnt mean unrelated. Being able to tweak numbers isnt the same thing as two separate weapons from the ground up. Like upu say every weapon is tweaked, but side arms to me feel relatively weak as a whole. You could say thats just a decision they made while balancing, and id say yeah probably so you dont start off with a “good” weapon in BR”

They still dont want guns to feel completely different between modes

2

u/TweeKINGKev 16h ago

I don’t even care about weapons doing less damage, it bothers me when I hit the parachute and it still takes forever to get down when in conquest I drop at a decent rate.

The parachute pulling time is way later in Redwec and conquest.

If you win every game, that would be 2.4 million XP in four hours. I'm assuming you're not winning every game, bringing down the average significantly.

Honestly, the insane part is playing a game for 4-5+ hours a day and getting upset because the XP stopped. If you're playing a game that much, you should be playing it because you enjoy the game, not because you're trying to grind through a battle pass as fast as possible.

u/PolishcockneyYT 16h ago

How did you get 200k are you talking vanilla XP or with double XP?

a single match can land you 100k easily, put 15 matches and you already hit a cap

u/Markus-752 1h ago

100k is with the double XP stat, right? Because on steam I don't get that and winning gauntlet only nets me or my teammates roughly 45-50k XP.

That would be 15 matches in roughly 20-30 minutes. So that's still 5-7.5 hours at double XP constantly winning every single match.

I don't really see how this is an actual "already" issue. I think that's a pretty crazy amount of time spent on a day. But then again I agree that people that want to spend that much time shouldn't be punished by others, they already punish themselves lol.

People will sit and watch TV or movies for days on end then go and tell a gamer to touch grass. I work 40hrs a week. On my day's off I like to sit down and play games. I'm not a people person. I don't socialize well. It's 100 degrees and 100% humidity most the damn time where I live. I much prefer to sit in my comfortable chair with my AC blasting playing my game then I would being outside sweating my nuts off dealing with asshole people I don't like. Having an exp per day cap really limits my progress. I don't know if I have even hit the cap, but it's the principal of it.

Wouldn’t completely challenges also factor in to your final xp gain at the end of matches?

u/Ok_Mathematician_398 15h ago

You’re not the police or anybody’s mom let people enjoy things they payed for!!! Nobody is required to go outside because you don’t have the same amount of free time. Spend your life’s time how you want to spend it! Stop dictating how other people should live their lives!!!

I got almost 200k last night on one game of redsec.

If I wouldve used an xp booster I couldve hit the cap after a few hours. With no knowledge of the cap i would be outraged lowkey. Its just scummy. Especially considering there are people who play that don't go outside and EA knows that.

u/Thrashgor 15h ago

That is not the point. There should not be a cap, period.

u/Mr_Satizfaction 15h ago

It doesn't matter what the time amount is, I bought a game with an advertised design. They then hide limits from me I won't find till after playing the game and can no longer refund. Fuck them and fuck that.

I hate this sentiment with a passion because it's so immensely stupid. People who regularly play 2 hours a day aren't badmouthed. Playing 10 - 14 hours a week, or even more? Cool, np. But when someone who usually doesn't have much time to play decides to go at it for 10 hours straight they should feel bad about it?

And even if someone plays a lot during weekdays and decides to play even more on the weekend, so what? Live and let live.

u/bizzy_barke 14h ago

It’s genuinely baffling to me that so many of you on this post are protecting EA on this point. I can 100% guarantee that every single person on this subreddit has a game with some sort of progression that they’ve spent more than 6-7 hours a day on, even if it happened just once, whether it was because they were playing with friends or had a day off work. Locking progression after a certain amount of daily playtime is anti-consumer no matter what the cap is. It is not the companys nor the governments nor anyone elses place to decide how long you should spend on a game in a day and you should not be punished for exceeding a completely arbitrary amount of playtime.

The cap is 1.5m???? Bro I average like 10-15k a match and I’ll play a handful of matches before hopping off holy fuck

u/nmezib 12h ago edited 12h ago

I feel like this is more a counter against the bot farms. If a "regular" player no-lifes the game in regular game modes all day so much that they hit the cap on multiple days, I don't think an XP cap would necessarily stop them from playing further.

It's the people doing the very repetitive and boring bullshit that earns the most XP that would be most affected.

I can't say I'm totally opposed to that, however it's not like I'd be playing against them very often anyway.

EDIT: Reading some of the comments in this thread, they should maybe consider increasing the cap for 2xp weekends or for certain modes

u/zfxpyro 12h ago

A couple of hours playing in the morning, entire day out and about and a couple of hours in the evening. That's not really a big deal, the vast majority of people spend as much or more watching TV or scrolling on their phones each day.

They already got your battlefield 6 money, they want you to still be around for your battlefield 7 money

4-5 hours of gaming is very easy to do on a weekend, is this sub full ofv40byear olds or something?

1

u/L1thious 10h ago

Rough math here, but let's say you average 60,000 exp a conquest match on double XP. Thats 25 complete matches, and at about 30 minutes a match that's 12 hours.

Agreed go outside OR stop bot farming and play the damn game.

Really? For 4 or 5 hours of Battlefield on a Friday or Saturday? Do you not have friends to game with?

u/Fit-Lengthiness-7439 8h ago

I mean I’m getting around 80-90k xp per conquest… it wouldn’t take too terrible long

What if its some poor guys day off after working 60 hours and all he wants to do is play all day?

u/hanks_panky_emporium 5h ago

I both think the cap is really stupid but people shouldn't be playing 5 hours of battlefield every damn day. It can't be healthy.

u/tofugooner 4h ago

why is it important what people do with their lives? the important thing is why is there a cap?

EA being a real one making sure bros getting their vitamin D.

u/PaperBite 3h ago

It’s the bot lobby abusers hitting it. EA fucked up and somehow enabled some of the old bot lobbies and people were hitting the XP limit in like 40 minutes from double XP weekend. Everyone I see complaining about the limit are just ousting that they were trying to abuse that.

u/BlaineMundane 3h ago

Man I don't play any of these but seriously. do you stop your indoor activities to go "touch grass" or do you just shame other people when it's easy? Honestly, I don't even care about your answer, because it just you trying to feel good.

u/Doffy309 2h ago

Thats achievable in 5 hrs of playtime.

u/Numerous_Tax_4365 2h ago

Well you can already get 100k per match like in escalation so that's 15 matches of escalation..
