——The Official Battlefield 6 Thread——

I think I read a dev post this week where they put in both closed weapon and open weapon modes for the beta, to gauge the player numbers for each to get some feedback on what people were preferring

I think that people will be more likely to play the open weapon modes during beta so they can play their favourite class and try out all the weapons. Not sure it'll be indicative of what people want to play when it's released.

Had a little blast at lunch time. Maps seem pretty small and manic, just too much going on in some cases. Performance is pretty decent on my old system. Finding the grey text for distance etc is really hard to read.

It certainly feels like it so far. This feels like a game I can get on with.
It took a few games to get a feel for the movement and gunplay. Its rather satisfying!

I had to crank up mouse sensitivity as default is SOOOOOO SLOW!!! Also move to a lighter mouse. Been a while since I played a fast paced online FPS.

All that said, not completely without issues! I've had a few times when I'm spawn locked for a couple of minutes for no apparent reason. Spotted a couple of small graphical abnormalities and a couple of times the weapon wouldnt show or fire.
All small issues in the grand scheme and its a beta so some issues to be expected, hopefully they will be sorted for launch.

glad it's not just me! I had to put it right up. Only had one quick game and it seems great - runs well and definitely faster gameplay.

Better be way bigger maps, prefer more vehicle combat backed by infantry.

Enjoyed that ran like a dream... smooth, play felt positive and not floaty like BF5... all in impressed will hit it hard tonight.

From watching streams, I am warming up to open weapons
Gives more flexibility for building according to maps
I liked to play support and engi, would be too limiting being stuck with lmg or smg only

LOL every person is invisble on my screen. i just see peoples player markers and i dont even see my gun as well

 

[RevBillyG]

Some very positive remarks here so far. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Almost home time

BF6 - Open Beta Viewmodel Invisible Mid Match | EA Forums - 12425646

After 5-15m of playtime the player view model of my weapons and gadgets for all classes turns stops showing. It does not happen immediately but when it... - 12425646

How's everyone finding performance? Playing at 1080p on a 9800X3D and 9070XT with a mix of all settings and comfortably getting 230-300fps. Zero upscaling with AA all turned off.

Dont have the best PC in the world but performance seems 90% ish okay... Which i'll take for a PC as dated as mine.

I'm really enjoying it, played maybe 12 games?

I just wish the maps were bigger. I'm fed up of the small city map, the slightly bigger one with the helis/planes is better, but still small for battlefield.

4080 / 7800x3d playing ultra 1440p 120fps average

Edit:
I've just tried to log back in, it loads the menu but all game modes are locked saying I don't have early access...what the hell? I've been playing all morning as I was part of BF labs etc! Any ideas?

Had this too about hour ago, where the game forgot I had early access, had to close the game and open it again.

Tried that a few times, and a restart, and a verify

edit: started working again

Is there anyway to force myself onto the map with the heli/plane/bigger map? I dont like the small COD maps.

 

[Josh]

The screen shake cannot be fully disabled and is giving me some motion sickness - urgh. Hopefully there is a workaround

 

[Stumble Bum]

I've given this a quick go and it just feels like cod unfortunately. Small maps, sprinting around everywhere at lightning speed, kill die respawn, kill die respawn etc.

Doesn't feel like Battlefield unfortunately.

Runs silky smooth at max settings though.

Back to Arma Reforger for me.

Played it most of this afternoon...

Only cons I have so far are..

Hit's not always registering
RPG's doing very little damage or not firing at all
The mouse acceleration/smoothing feels way off, even with that aiming toggle thing turned off

Also 100% those content creators at the BF6 event had NO recoil, all guns are recoiling for PC users

The mouse feel is 100000% WAY OFF

The streamers are mostly controller players and by default have less recoil then KBM..

 

[Cully]

No issues my end and im super sensitive to mouse input .

 

[Locky]

Can't even play now haha. No early access.. nice one..

9950x3d + 9070xt at 2560x1440 = 130fps at all max settings. No frame gen / upscaling and AA on
