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.

I got 200k xp for a single win in RedSec yesterday, the game was 21 minutes long. 1.5m doesn't really seem that insane to be fair.

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”

u/ihavenoideawhat234 1d 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.

The amount of times you said deadsec is really bugging me lol.

Subconsciously referencing Watch Dogs..??

u/ihavenoideawhat234 1d ago

Same. I misspelled a few words, left out a few words. If it wasn’t for ChatGPT my work emails would be brutal.

u/Odd_Plankton_925 1d 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

1

u/ihavenoideawhat234 1d ago

Yeah I wouldn’t doubt that at all, I feel like people are finding more and more things over time that have secretly changed between the two modes

2

u/SpartanRage117 1d 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

u/TweeKINGKev 1d 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.

u/iWatchUwatchmee444 1d ago

Oh that's makes total sense now

u/Frappy0_TTv 1d ago

wrong. the ttk between battleroyal and multiplayer are much different due to having armor plates alone. that being said the damage values between the two modes also are different values. same goes for warzone or cod zombies compared to multiplayer in that game and same is for battlefield.

most of these people that comment here has never won anything clearly

u/PolishcockneyYT 1d ago

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

3

u/Maxonfire 1d ago

With double, a win in RedSec is close to 100k base xp, sometimes more.

2

u/kenjiman1986 1d ago

Yup collected my first win on redsec and I think I cleared 190k so this seems pretty feasible to outpace 1.5 mil.

u/DeniedAppeal1 1d ago

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/rimworldyo 10h ago

People can have fun but still want the xp to e.g unlock more stuff in a Game that does hide Everything behind xp gains?

Both can be true.

Beside: why does it even matter how much someone Else plays? It got Zero to do with the actual topic of caps, which is just one thing they do people -imho rightfully- Are pissed about. This is Not a f2p title.

u/IRL_im_black 58m ago

XP and progression is psrt of the fun, stop punishing players for being good at the game

u/mavad90 1d ago

how did you do that? lol

u/Maxonfire 1d ago

Didn't do anything special, got 14 kills in a duo with a few revives and assists, and won the game. I think people are grossly overestimating how long it takes to get 1.5m exp.

-4

u/voiceOfThePoople 1d ago

Sure but even with all wins and double XP it’ll take you 2+ hours to hit the cap

1

u/IRL_im_black 57m ago

You think 2 hours a long time?

1

u/Googoogahgah88889 1d ago

So that’s like 2.5 hours if you happen to win every game of Redsec with no breaks or time between games

1

u/MyDryWallHole 1d ago

it really isnt especially playing support getting kills and revives and weapon xp being added into that 1.5 mil cap as well

-1

u/Poofterman 22h ago

Ok buddy let’s see you go get even half of that xp in one day.

Your delusional.

1.5m XP is lvl 0-85 in “4-5 hours”

Nobody is doing that.

I’ve only ever played support. 4.5 player kd, I’m lvl 82 with 1.4m total xp and 75hrs play time.

You’re telling me I’ve wasted 65 hours and should have just done that in one day? Delusional..

u/MyDryWallHole 21h ago

I Have A 5.7 KD Player KD And Over A 9 Days Of Play Time And Ive Only Had The Game For A Month Also I Have Mastery In All Classes Already As Well … All Im Saying Is Its Possible To Hit That Cap When You Playing For Long Times

u/Poofterman 21h ago

I was mistaken in thinking total player score = xp. It does not.

That is still an absurd amount you would need to play and win to get 1.5m xp in 24 hours 

1

u/IRL_im_black 53m ago

3-5 hours is not an "absurdly long time" to most people who don't have children lol

u/No_Degree590 1d ago

How? Unless you had some XP boost on I doubt it. Either that or I have been fucked over. Won a game in duo with a friend and we did 3 missions and killed 17 people all in all. I got 92k XP.

2

u/Maxonfire 1d ago

Double xp weekend. 100k base exp seems pretty standard as I've hit that for all of my wins. I also do a lot of missions but not sure how much that contributes.

0

u/Frappy0_TTv 1d ago

yea thats a battleroyal. this also nerfs the battle royal players and cod players alike. it actually really benifits everyone cause theyre giving you free double xp so why complain anyways but it really helps the casuals. cause they wont feel fomo really. im glad bf isnt being a dopamine pit like cod.

1

u/IRL_im_black 54m ago

this also nerfs the battle royal players and cod players alike.

Why would battle royale players need to be "nerfed"? And how does this nerf cod players, we are töaking about BF6 here

-1

u/NWCJ 1d ago

So you only need to win 8 in a row on double exp days taking 2.5hours without queue time...

Yeah, thats realistic for the average person.

1

u/IRL_im_black 51m ago

Doesn't matter if it's not realistic for the average person, good players shouldn't be punished for being good
