Teamplay in battlefield 6 is mostly horrobible and I think it would be better with closed classes buh in the end the community decided open classes. Furthermore, you can no longer gauge what kind of weapons you might face in a gunfight based on an opponent's class. The buffs you receive for using the weapon associated with a specific class are laughably weak. You can combine the best weapons—primarily assault rifles—with full healing capabilities and ammunition resupply; this is similar to the Medic class having assault rifles in BF3/BF4, which wasn't a good design choice back then, either. It has stripped away a core mechanic and a sensible "trade-off" system from the Battlefield franchise. While it might be convenient for you as an individual to combine healing, the most powerful weapons, and so on, it has generally been detrimental to teamplay. What are your thoughts on this?

I like that detail. it's cool. I'm having fun!

Thing is pretty busted. I am having a great time, but it wont be long before a lot of players start complaining about it.

This guy totally ruined Vegas for me tonight. +100 kills and 0 deaths in attack heli. CAN SOMEONE SMART AT DICE REMOVE THE ATTACK HELI???? so people like this creep stop exploiting it for farm and astronomical k/d?

so far it's one of my favorite weapons in the game, feels weighty and the ttk is not that bad. also it looks so good

I don't think this is how it's supossed to work, Dice...

I use the SVDM and M39 exclusively since launch and it was already challenging competing with auto weapons and the Lazer beam gun play including SMGs since the last weapons balance patch. Now follow up shots are way harder to hit even when cross hair is dead on.

SVDM 20 round mag still costs 45 points!! Despite getting it's recoil nerfed and follow up shots crippled

M39 did not need further nerfs as the SVDM does it's job better with less recoil and faster fire rate and barely loses out on accuracy.

No one has ever complained about the svdm or the M39; MEANWHILE SNIPERS ... Busted from day 1, still getting new snipers every season..

I don't get this pandering to a free game mode that frankly no one gives two fucks about they paid for the full game.

edit: the number of people thinking it's the SVK just shows you that no one outside of redsec knows this was an issue!

Both maps are great additions. Loving them. Wish there was a rotation between the two.

Infantry-Only Full XP Servers – Conquest, Escalation

Hey guys,

I've put together a few Infantry Only Portal Experiences for anyone who enjoys Battlefield's gunplay without getting demolished by Combat Vehicles every 2 seconds or having to resort to tiny TeamDeathmatch maps.

Transport vehicles are still enabled where appropriate.
Here are the Experiences:

• Conquest — Experience Code: `12v2w`
• Escalation — Experience Code: `133zm`

All of them are FULL XP.

The goal is basically two things:

1. Have infantry-focused versions of some of my favorite Battlefield modes.

I love vehicles in Battlefield as much as the next one, but there are definitely matches where they tend to take over the entire flow of the game. Sometimes I just want the large maps, objectives, squads and Battlefield chaos but without constantly getting farmed by vehicles.

So that's what these are meant to provide.

If that sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to help kickstart the servers and get the ball rolling. Maybe we'll get one of them populated consistently. That would be awesome.
I listened to some feedback and got rid of Maps that turned out to be too big for Conquest. On the Escalation Experience the map size decreases naturally.

2. Have actively moderated servers.

If somebody is obviously cheating / or the account is extremely suspicious, I want these servers to be places where that gets dealt with quickly instead of everyone just having to tolerate it for the rest of the match.

I also have a feeling Portal attracts fewer of those guys in the first place, but having active moderation certainly doesn't hurt. Collective reporting should solve it, or when there's no doubt the host could even kick certain players. I must say however, Encounters with suspicious players have gone down since the most recent updates.

I'm excited to welcome you to this gaming experience. Hope it replicates the vibe of Strike at Karkand Infantry Only servers back in the days.

Full server is very likely!

Please discuss :)

As you can see in the picture, the bipod is fully deployed, yet it doesn't even lean against the barricade. There's no proper physical interaction with the environment, no noticeable deployment animation like in previous titles, and no real sense of the weapon being stabilized. The gun simply mounts to the surface like any other weapon without a bipod, making the entire mechanic feel poorly implemented and practically pointless.

First time I managed to get a good view without getting slimed from halfway across the map.
