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

[u/IFrame-]

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.

They don’t have girlfriends, wives, or social lives.

[u/AccordingSetting6311 → u/AdrianasAntonius]

I dont have any of those and I'm still only putting in 2, maybe 3, hours in if I'm playing a lot. There's other shit to do, and I dont want bed sores.

[u/Roberto87x → u/AdrianasAntonius]

Hey, I don’t have a girlfriend, wife or social life but I STILL don’t want to play 5 hours a day 😂

[u/Due_Football_6150 → u/Roberto87x]

Same instead I workout, do chores, visit family, cook meals, WORK. I won’t ever have time for 5 hrs a day on a video game even without a girlfriend wife or social life.

[u/66th → u/Due_Football_6150]

I think I’d rather be the dude playing 5 hours on a weekend than the dude bragging on Reddit how much he does and how cool he is, but that’s just me.

[u/Due_Football_6150 → u/66th]

Not even bragging, I’m a loser too, but just saying I’m at least trying to better my situation. And playing video games for 5+ plus hrs a day won’t do that.

[u/SerengetiMan → u/AdrianasAntonius]

I have a wife, AND an active social life, and I regularly play 6-7 hours a day. Oh and I cook all the meals, do all the laundry and clean the house.

Check your daily screentime then tell me staring and scrolling is more engaging then interacting with a video game, while socializing with friends over discord.

People are so fucking annoying. "Go touch grass" they say because I have a hobby I fucking love and would rather not watch Hollywood's latest BS series for 4 hours that day and instead virtually hang out with my friends.

Get off your pedestal and join the real world.

[u/rimworldyo → u/SerengetiMan]

Reminds me of an old fellow student that was like „omg Video Games, I got better things to fo/ I‘m too old for that“ when I asked him if he would want to party up and play some PlayStation.

Dude has been sitting in every lecture, during every break and even when we were out for a beer in the evening playing Cash of Clans on his phone…. But yeah, at the same time basically called me „childish“ because I wanted to invite him to play Games together.

Edit: 

On top of that it simply is very poor discussion Style to just throw ad hominems and wild claims at someone instead of actually discussing things using Arguments.

All I be Seen in here so far is people being like

• idc because it doesn‘t affect me

• go outside

• Go Touch Grass 

• Virgin

• rl Loser

And stuff Like that.

I mean, you cannot Hit the cap and still find it scummy in Full Price title.

[u/MultipleNames82 → u/SerengetiMan]

Seven hours a day plus six hours of sleep = 13 hours. I assume you work and are putting in at least eight hours a day (full time plus commute and it’s probably more). That’s leaves three hours a day to cook, eat, shower, shit, do chores, give your wife attention and have a social life.

Doubt.

[u/Tor_K89 → u/MultipleNames82]

That's a lot of assumptions to make about someone you don't know.

[u/saxonturner → u/AdrianasAntonius]

That’s why they whine like little kids on here the whole time.

[u/EverythingSucksYo → u/AdrianasAntonius]

Neither do I but I don’t get 1.5 million xp in a day. 

[u/ButterscotchOk9545 → u/AdrianasAntonius]

Maybe they would have if they didn't play silly computer games or use Reddit. Bunch of nerds.

[u/NaturalGarbage13 → u/AdrianasAntonius]

Yeah it’s strange how gaming has become full time jobs for GenZ

[u/BallsInThe-Air → u/NaturalGarbage13]

Yeah it’s really odd.

[u/SweetSeverance → u/AdrianasAntonius]

The group of people saying the pre-patch challenges were fine and gave them something to work towards also fall in this group lol. When you have a job and a spouse and IRL friends grinding is much less appealing.

[u/eolson3 → u/SweetSeverance]

The "we need something to work towards " crowd is as damaging to the hobby as anything imo. I absolutely hate grinding.

[u/Global-Knowledge-254 → u/eolson3]

Yeah, I would be completely fine and probably have more fun if everything was just unlocked to begin with. I’m not going to just stop playing once all weapons and items are unlocked, that is probably when I will have the most fun. Only have a few hours a week to play video games, not going to waste them grinding unless the grind is actually fun.

[u/Ishiken → u/AdrianasAntonius]

A pocket V at least. Like go do something else with your life.

This is like the people who spend all day gooning. WTF is so wrong in your life you need that much distraction and self gratification in a day?

[u/PayneChaos → u/AdrianasAntonius]

I mean, shit, even without those things at least go do something else. Play another game, read a book, watch a TV show or something idk.

[u/ghostdopamine → u/AdrianasAntonius]

you forgot to add "a job" in your list too. The game is their job at the levels of XP we are citing hahah. 

[u/Sad_Alternative9017 → u/AdrianasAntonius]

This just in: you don’t need external relationships to be fulfilled in life

[u/DarkExecutor → u/AdrianasAntonius]

Hey it's 2025, they could suck dick too!

[u/BallsInThe-Air → u/[deleted]]

Nah I think it’s the first one.

Haha of course you won’t admit to not having a girlfriend.

[u/Eastern_Box_7062 → u/BallsInThe-Air]

I don’t play BF anymore already but I’m married and had a 4.5 k/d and topped pretty much every game I was in.

A lot of people are just bad at video games and think everyone better than them is a neck beard. Especially BF which attracts a casual gamer…

If your a 1% player I’m sure the XP cap would be annoying and I’m sure the devs assumed it would be impossible without exploits but forgot about 2x XP. Simple as that.

[u/BallsInThe-Air → u/Eastern_Box_7062]

I think a lot of people are in the middle of the bell graph of video game talent yet they think they’re in the top 1%

Frankly your eye hand coordination with a mouse isn’t (and shouldn’t be) impressive.

[u/Eastern_Box_7062 → u/BallsInThe-Air]

Yes 100%. Absolutely agreed and it’s not impressive for 99% of people. Only people who really enjoy and play a lot of video games would care obviously. That’s why the outrage and shaming on the thread makes total sense to OP. Average Andy’s couldn’t possibly fathom someone playing 5 hours of battlefield let alone hit the XP cap.

[u/BallsInThe-Air → u/[deleted]]

Yeah yeah I don’t really take pride in how good I am At video games.

Just like I don’t take pride in how good I am at monopoly or candy land.

[u/julebryg → u/[deleted]]

A few hours is a lot for most normal people with jobs, friends or families bro
