[burnt shale]

Or just Tiggr, that's how I know him too

Gunplay is such a huge part of Battlefield, so that's good news at least

I think the main factor that might've saved the Battlefield franchise was the LABS idea

Yeah 2042 really messed up the respect for Battlefield, BFV threw it into question already

Pretty much their last chance now to save it

[cunning adder]

For comparsion 1 was around 316

Or google is fuckin w me

[burnt shale]

I imagine the slow death of BR titles lately also is playing a huge role in BF6 going into the right direction again

[cunning adder]

Dude i hate google sm 😭

[cunning adder]

Ngl firestorm was great

Or wtv bfv br was

[burnt shale]

Didn't like it at all, but I'm generally not a huge fan of battle royale games. Had a few hours of fun in Warzone, but that's it

Still didn't touch Fortnite to this day

I respect that game though, they know how to keep a game alive, that's an almost impossible task in itself

But no, EA, we do not need a live snoop dogg concert in Battlefield 6 to keep it alive.

[cunning adder]

Theyre impressive they know how to revive hype i mean keeping a game alive for 8 years aint easy but then you revive hype constatly now thats something

[cunning adder]

Still remember snoop happy he got 3 kills then saying "when i learn this, its gonna be a problem"

[burnt shale]

Didn't he play Battlefield once?

I'm not sure

Yeah it was BF1

[cunning adder]

Yep

He got 3 kills by hipfiring

He also kept walking into every wall

[burnt shale]

Yeah I just re-watched that

Gotta love snoop, man didn't even know he existed

[grave veldt]

KBM won’t be available on ps5 right?

[austere valley]

Having the same question, 2042 sucked on controller

[forest holly]

Do we know if the beta will have any single player modes (obviously the campaign won't be there)?

I want to give my dad a go at the game, but he's barely ever played console games.

[primal shard]

see from my experience with ps5 pro i felt the aim felt clunky janky i have no clue if that to do with fps but when using controller via pc it feels soo buttery smooth i use exact same settings for both sides. I praying bf6 wont let me down since i getting it early for the ps5 😬

[eternal jetty]

Mainly focusing on the multiplayer side so unlikely.

[tiny grove]

Wondering if bf6 is coming to gamepass

[abstract current]

They should do a map in London too

Escalation seems like an evolution of breakthrough

[eternal jetty]

No

[mellow sun]

It will be in Ea play 1 year after release

[abstract current]

I'm the only person disappointed they didn't bring some of the building trenches and walls back from BFV lol

That was easy xp

[mellow sun]

Would have been cool with the added destruction

[abstract current]

It's back to Bad Company 2 classes

Where medic and support are the same thing

[mellow sun]

More bf3 than bad company imo

Can still medic with assault rifle so 🤷‍♂️

[abstract current]

I've played nearly all the battlefield games but I was deprived of BF3 because I didn't have a console at the time, I made up for it with BF4

So I've never played BF3 😦

[mellow sun]

Bf4 was basically bf3 improved

Bf6 looks like the next step so far

[abstract current]

Yeh even from the player movements and the sound effects, it feels like it is BF4 but better

[mellow sun]

Can finally forget all about bfv and 2042 like the bad dreams they are🤣

[abstract current]

Which is exactly what we wanted

[mellow sun]

Server browser is so important to battlefield.
If we get that and the platoon/ clan system
Back. It could be a thing of greatness.
Need to keep focus on the community aspect imo.
That’s what made the older games so successful imo

[abstract current]

BFV kinda grew on me for a while, the map where you have to push onto the island. I think it is Iwo Jima, that was pretty good

[eternal jetty]

Wasn't the server browser (portal) already confirmed

[mellow sun]

The pacific stuff was great, shame they didn’t take the same care with the European conflict, it should have been the best ww2 game ever

[mellow sun]

If it’s only for portal and not for normal multiplayer, it’s not what is needed imo

[abstract current]

You can still mark enemies in BF6 right? They haven't taken that away

[mellow sun]

They added 3d spotting back 👍

(Red dot over the enemy head just like bf4)

[abstract current]

We have dots instead of Doritos?

[mellow sun]

It’s more a diamond now

I would like it to show the class like in bf1

But with all class weapons it’s not so important, Hopefully the class skins are easy to spot the difference.
Need to be able to spot a engineer vs a sniper at a quick glance .

(Why heros didn’t work in
Bf)

[abstract current]

It's just annoying when you're laying on the ground dying and you see all the medics running past you

[mellow sun]

That’s why you join a squad or group to play with👍

[abstract current]

I used to be in a platoon but these days I'll jump in a tank and just do my own thing

[mellow sun]

In HB we always make sure we have people in each role.
I’m often the medic reviving others that shoot better than me 🤣

You more than welcome to roll with us anytime.

I don’t want to self promote , so can hit dms if your looking for more people to play with.

[abstract current]

Thanks I'll keep that in mind, I'm a bit of a loner so I'm not really looking to join a squad right now or anything

[mellow sun]

It’s all groovy.
All play styles welcome in bf (as long as you PTFO when needed 🤪)

[golden cedar]

are we gonna get eras in bf6 portal like 2042?

[formal veldt]

so I got V

cause 1 is currently getting patched on nvidia geforce now

and damn it's confusing lol

but I've gotta say it's stunning

[austere spoke]

What day we getting are codes for platforms?

For bf6 beta closed

[eternal jetty]

Closed alpha already ended.

You can pre-load the game as early as August 4 at 15:00 UTC (8AM PT) and start playing during the Open Beta Weekends.

#bf6-beta-info message

[austere spoke]

Not on about the closed alpha I am on about the closed beta it starts on the 7th I am pretty sure

Basically early access

[charred moat]

What does the phantom pack include? Just cosmetics and stuff?

[austere spoke]

Battle pass 25+ skips as well

[charred moat]

BATTLE PASS?!??

[austere spoke]

Yeah

[charred moat]

oh god it really is a cod copy

[austere spoke]

Better one though

[austere spoke]

Cod copy what?

[charred moat]

I hope so

[austere spoke]

I am pretty sure every game should have a bp

[charred moat]

The surface level stuff feels a lot like cod

[austere spoke]

Ah I see

[charred moat]

I’m sure they will refine it in later stages

[tribal hill]

Just curious they obviously announced the dates for closed beta and open beta's in the month of August but are NDA's still active during the closed beta?

[austere spoke]

Just hope we get an email for early access

Because we got the code but we waiting the the email for the platform

[tribal hill]

I think existing people who were apart of the previous tests in LABS jsut get it on the original platform they played during LABS

[charred moat]

I wonder, is there gonna be a server browser this time around?

[tribal hill]

Doubtful as they already mentioned SBMM is going to be in the game

[charred moat]

I don’t get why they don’t want to just do a browser

Seems easy enough

[tribal hill]

Well they could do it in PORTAL the only downside to that is that they would limit the amount of progression you get in PORTAL because why would people want to play quickplay or the game modes in the base game

We saw that in 2042 where u were only allowed to progress in the game to a certain point over X amount of hours/days before not being able to progress at all

[lyric aurora]

We need a server browser for persistent servers !! Why is this so difficult

[tribal hill]

I hope they don't add a server browser so it keeps the player base contained otherwise you get to many people doing to many other things and every game mode suffers

[charred moat]

In Australia we just had no quick servers filled and everyone in portal not progressing

Everyone chose convenience and browsing over quick play lol

Quick play is nice but it’s also good to have stability

[glossy star]

I doubt there’ll be nda for anything any more with all the leaks and the content creator playtests in LA

Game is fully out there now

Only thing that concerns me ab bf6 rn is the lil sprint slide bunny hop stuff. Hopefully it gets toned down a lil bit

[charred moat]

Is there bf2042 style bunny hops and slides?

[lyric aurora]

This literally makes no sense

Im surprised you thought that out, typed it then sent it.

[charred moat]

[tribal hill]

I think its pretty common place in development about points of entry. If you have the player base scattered between to many entry points to the game all game modes suffer but if you have let's say 5-6 for example that kinda touch all base points you are going to see much more engagment?

I think that's what 2042 had if im not mistaken

[charred moat]

People auto sort themselves into what they wanna do bruh

[glossy star]

Kind of which is annoying but will defo be toned down on release

[charred moat]

I hope they keep it I love the fast paced movement

[lyric aurora]

Bro people play whatever game mode they wanna play. What are you saying ?

[tribal hill]

I know there are 2 extreames of like Milsim lovers and Call of Duty kids but Battlefield can get in that sweet spot where you can movement and gameplay that is right in the middle but having bunny hopping call of duty mechanics is def leaning to much toward the low IQ spectrum(call of duty)

[charred moat]

You MUST play domination on repeat no conquest for you

[lyric aurora]

#persistentserverbrowser2025

[tribal hill]

#nopersistentserverbrowser2025

[charred moat]

Think of the greater good, your domination suffering will mean the 3 people who enjoy it will have a full server

[lyric aurora]

I speak for the real battlefield fans bro

[charred moat]

He speaks for me

[lyric aurora]

lol

[charred moat]

Server browser is essential

[honest whale]

bros acting like battlepasses werent a thing since ages

[forest holly]

how does server browser work? What makes it different to changing ping sites?

is it similar to the portal one in 2042?

[half gale]

For example, in a years time there is currently only 2 FULL servers in your region. Matchmaking will force you into a new, empty match without you even knowing if there are full servers. Server browser will let you see them and queue to join when people leave.

[forest holly]

This was present in BF1, right?

I've only played it a small amount, but I remember something of the sort.

official servers or smthn

[half gale]

All of them except 2042

Portal is separated from matchmaking. Previously, matchmaking and browsing servers were the same servers.

[red zealot]

As someone who frequented forge mode alot when i used to play Halo, the new addition to Portal has me stoked. Just to see the cool things people come up with. The whimsical things people come up with.

[forest holly]

Which sucks

I can barely find Breakthrough games on 2042, and the only portal servers available for it are on Redacted.

either that or their rules aren't the same as the actual game

[half gale]

When the playerbase dies down, everyone defaults to the worse game mode, Conquest, because it's "Battlefield mode"

[forest holly]

yeah

I don't mind it, but the large maps are painful.

I like close quarters more

[bronze tinsel]

I wish there was a tug of war style mode like frontlines but with breakthrough and conquest elements, and more importantly instead of bomb sites capture points

[limpid sedge]

so did they release the beta portal yet?

[worthy knoll]

do a raffle watch the chat go wild 😂

put it in here https://discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/1397231130654281861

[limpid sedge]

so no one knows

[worthy knoll]

dont think so maybe you will see on the 7-8th 🤷

[limpid sedge]

the portal will be released before the 7th since the early access is the 7th

[worthy knoll]

seems like you already know then

[limpid sedge]

hmmm. maybe you have a hard time with reading comp.

[silent ridge]

Dont think so. They didnt say Portal will be on Beta client

[junior jungle]

guys i have ea pro am i getting beta eatly acces?

[stable rain]

Yes

[junior jungle]

tysm, u know where i can find it?

[stable rain]

All here https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-6/news/lock-and-load-for-the-open-beta

[lavish flint]

Do y'all think the PC versions anti-cheat will work well? I'm trying to decide to get this on console or PC (PC always has rampant cheating it feels like)

[junior jungle]

ty

[stable rain]

That’s what the beta is for

[thin niche]

dang, that’s weird that you can’t find any. that’s all i personally play. i love playing combat medic and running in too revive everyone. which is why breakthrough is so peak. it must be ur region or something

[forest holly]

probably

[barren cedar]

Is M&K allowed on PS5?

[forest holly]

I'm normally on around 11am

everyone's playing the control mode

[thin niche]

yeah, it’s the same with battlefront 2( galactic assult) i like the forward moving story during the match

it’s also fun getting top 3 in the game with 4 kills and 30+ revives

[trail sphinx]

Finally now by PORTAL we can make Call of Duty 4 ProMod live again 🥰

[limpid sedge]

they should just ban all cod players from battlefield

[distant python]

Bets on dice actually supporting portal this year?

[forest holly]

ptfo

is underused

[distant python]

✅

Ban them from suggesting things to dice too

All codtubers voices should go unheard

[limpid sedge]

"why cant i have a 360 no scope slide canceling pokemon skin character with a glow in the dark weapon that turns into a bong, how lame"... i hate cod players

"please turn battlefield into cod"

[distant python]

Ban dannyonpc from having opinions too

[limpid sedge]

idk who that is but yeah f that guy

[distant python]

@vernal nest Why u want cod skins in bf6 bro

[limpid sedge]

probably because he might of mained call of duty and cod was designed with addiction in mind. they found a way to literally make it the same type of addiction as smoking or other addictive substances(which is why theyve been sued over it multiple times)

[honest whale]

Crazy statement

[distant python]

Nah he wants the cod skins in bf6

Grounded statement

[honest whale]

he literally doesnt though lmao. reddit says random bs about him all the time

he literally said: "Grounded, realistic / plausible and no weird effects" and referred to the most basic ass skins in warzone. he never talked about those goofy halloween skins like ever

[honest whale]

half assed statement 😭

[scarlet fox]

I really enjoyed BF6 and some key questions came up:

1.Will the game be available in Russia?
2.And will there be regional prices?

If Dice decides to make a knight's move and give access to the games in Russia, then perhaps the Russian fan base will return to the series even more actively, especially during the release of BF6 (the game looks really cool)

And so finally we got the same nostalgic BF.

[mighty forge]

If they drop an empty map similar to this: https://youtu.be/Ov25urggo3U portal could be PEAK

[primal shard]

Please tell me this isn’t true but does bf6 have sbmm/will have it?

[glossy star]

I enjoy more bf4 speed. Like a medium between that and cod. But fuck cod movement the smelly rats.

[glossy star]

24/7 golmud railway remake

[glossy star]

I’m sure the game is gonna be available everywhere because it’s ea. even on north sentinel island they sell hard copies.

Get to pre download the beta tomorrow to play on the 7th can’t wait

[iron zephyr]

is there a portal discord...? cant find it

[jade quarry]

there is at least one.

[iron zephyr]

well can you point me to where its at then? some dude did this same thing the other day
"you should use the portal discord"
ok. thanks, but where? 🤣

[jade quarry]

I could just spoon-feed you the answer but... 🤣

[iron zephyr]

i search battlefield portal, 0 results

thanks though

[jade quarry]

you're almost there.

[iron zephyr]

would appreciate if you left this open for someone who actually wants to help to respond

rather than insult me

[jade quarry]

one more word.

[jade quarry]

I'm just playing with you, not trying to insult you.

man, just google "Battlefield Portal Discord".

it's right there the first result.

[twin lily]

guys how to know if we can try the open beta for bf6? i got my battlefield labs acc registered since 6th Feb, but idk how to check it out

[jade quarry]

then you're in on Thursday.

check emails for code.

[twin lily]

got no codes somehow

[steel breach]

My yearning&craving on official 128-player conquest large mode on BATTLEFIELD 6. The minimum number of players required to start a match. For 128-player conquest large mode, the minimum is typically 1 player (a player). 128-player conquest large mode: Require 1 player (a player) to start a match.

[twin lily]

oh wait, so we cant pre load today

ive just read it, got the mail but no codes, just said to look it on store on pre load day

[jade quarry]

preload is Monday.

[cobalt oriole]

Its pretty slow though fov just makes it look faster

🇹🇷 We Request Turkish Subtitles Support for Battlefield 6!
Dear EA and DICE Team,

The Battlefield series has a massive and loyal player base in Turkey. Among all entries, Battlefield 1 holds a unique place in the hearts of Turkish gamers. With its cinematic storytelling and emotional depth, BF1 became a cult favorite here — especially missions like Lawrence of Arabia, Avanti Savoia, and Through Mud and Blood left a deep impression.

However, many players couldn’t fully experience the narrative due to the lack of Turkish subtitles. For a significant portion of the community, story elements, cutscenes, and even multiplayer objectives become unclear or inaccessible due to language barriers.

Why Turkish Subtitles Matter
🇹🇷 Large and Engaged Turkish Community
Turkey consistently ranks among the top regions on Steam by player count. Battlefield games have always had strong performance here, with BF1 being especially popular.

📈 Successful Examples of Turkish Support
Several major titles that implemented Turkish localization have seen a strong response from the Turkish market. Examples include:

✅ The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Full Turkish UI and subtitles

✅ Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord – Full Turkish support (Turkish-developed)

✅ Cyberpunk 2077 – Turkish subtitles officially supported

✅ Baldur’s Gate 3 – Added Turkish in an update due to community demand

✅ Life is Strange series – Full Turkish subtitle support

✅ Alan Wake II – Turkish subtitles officially included

✅ Dying Light 2 – Full Turkish UI and subtitles

✅ Resident Evil Village – Official Turkish subtitle support

These titles prove that Turkish localization isn’t just appreciated — it boosts sales, increases visibility, and builds long-term loyalty.

🧠 Immersion and Accessibility
Storytelling, character development, and real-time instructions all become significantly more impactful when players can understand them natively. Subtitles increase immersion and help players feel included.

♿ Not Just a Luxury — A Necessity
In 2025, subtitle support for large language communities should be a standard. Especially for games with cinematic experiences like Battlefield, this support should be part of the core launch experience.

Battlefield 1 as a Key Example
BF1 resonated with Turkish players not just for its gameplay, but also because it included the Ottoman front. With full Turkish subtitles, the emotional and historical significance of that campaign could’ve been far more meaningful for local players.

Let’s not miss this opportunity again.

What We Ask for in Battlefield 6
We kindly request:

Full Turkish UI and subtitle support at launch

Translations for menus, dialogues, tutorials, objectives, and in-game text

Accessibility options to toggle subtitles in Turkish in both campaign and multiplayer modes

We’re not asking for full voice dubbing — only accurate, complete, and polished subtitles.

Let’s Make Our Voices Heard
If you’re a Turkish player or you support game localization in general, please:
✅ Like this post
✅ Leave a comment
✅ Invite friends to do the same

Let’s show EA and DICE that the Turkish gaming community is strong, active, and deserves to be included.

Thank you for reading.

[distant python]

fix your dictator first

[proven path]

This is a discussion about video game localization, not politics.
If your only contribution is to insult an entire country's people based on your personal bias, then you are part of the problem — not the solution.
Focus on the topic or move on.

[distant python]

AI generated replies now we are well and truely in the future

[proven path]

i want say more but you are don't know Turkish my little friend

You can express your arrogance and racism on other platforms.

[distant python]

I am not racist i am just suggesting you revolt against your dictatorship

[glossy star]

Making revolting sound like a walk in the park lmao. Atleast turkey got cheap dentistry

[glossy star]

Is turkey a bad place to live or is it quite chill?

[proven path]

Turkey is having trouble with its government. Yes, we don't want it either, but the solution isn't to rebel, but to hold new democratic elections.

[proven path]

Turkey is a very modern country, not the Arab country portrayed in news and films abroad, and yes, we are not Arab. We don't have a desert, and we don't ride camels.

Our country hosts thousands of foreign tourists from many countries and there are many places you can visit in every season, all of which are beautiful in their own way.

[tiny grove]

Turkey looks beautiful

They have alot of cats that look well taken care of,i think thats a reflection of their people and the country itself

[limpid sedge]

lol calling someone racist for zero reason is wild

[proven path]

Exactly, the guy who innocently asked for Turkish language and then said you should start a rebellion in your country first may not be a racist, thank you.

[raw hearth]

I think turkey does have a desert tho

[tiny grove]

Telling someone to "fix your dictatorship" for seemingly no reason just sounds xenophobic af

But judging by that person's entire profile,im not surprised

[proven path]

dude i live Turkey and we good geography

[tiny grove]

He's just trying to say that turkey isn't an entire desert filled with nomads, because thats what alot of people think about when someone mentions a middle eastern country

[raw hearth]

wasn’t trying to insult the country btw

[proven path]

No problem, I understand you.

[late drum]

In be4 all the 1000 damage, xp farm, and milsim servers overshadowing normal servers in Portal

[proven path]

There are many people who see the Turkish people as a stupid community that declares war on everyone who is barbaric, which is very sad, but the people in our country are helpful, tolerant and kind.

[shut forge]

nah turkey have steppes and mountains a lot of mountains

[raw hearth]

what do you mean by nah? It’s a diverse place but as far as I can tell there is a desert in turkey

[tiny grove]

I don't think people see turkey that way

Just arab countries

[limpid sedge]

nothing about that is a racist comment lmfao. do you know what the definition of racism is?

[tiny grove]

@limpid sedge

[shut forge]

turkey dont have a true desert

[tiny grove]

Its a snarky comment anyways

[proven path]

If you're trying to belittle someone for an unrelated reason, then yes, I would consider that racist.

[limpid sedge]

"I dont like it so im gonna call it racist" lmfao

[cobalt oriole]

Chronically online discordians try not to argue about race and politics level impossible

[proven path]

If you have any questions about Türkiye, I'd be happy to help. Don't worry, I'll be honest. Nobody is perfect.

[covert junco]

got some q about portal.

do you have full controll over your server?
can you ban players that cheat?
etc with standard server rentals

[tiny grove]

You should've seen this server before

Its actually tame now

[distant python]

That one dice dev talking about the server browser being in portal has clearly never used portal

(There are no stock servers in portal)

[burnt nymph]

Are there still drops (for the beta) going on for bf6?

[cobalt oriole]

The finals server was also insanely bad a while back. Big gaming studios really need to learn how to be stricter in servers

[thin niche]

how? cause i was there since the beginning, i don’t remember it being to bad. besides everyone crying for keys lol

[shut forge]

thank god we’re not in the BF1 discord it would be on fire by now lmao

[covert junco]

so we will have no server browser
no server controll
no dedicated servers

whats the point then. im fine with playing but sucks we cant have our own servers to create a community like bf3-4

is this correct?

speaking ofc from the current info we have about current portal mode ofc

[cobalt oriole]

I think around december it was arguing 24/7. Had to leave it was so bad, could barely have a genuine conversation

[thin niche]

weird, i was there during the closed beta. and was active. but stop being active in the channels after the game released

[proven path]

I'm very calm, my friend, I'm just trying to tell the truth to people who introduce or know my country nonsense.

[sterile citrus]

So I have a question this it worth buying battlefield 6 for 100 dollar

[shut forge]

no (depends)

[sterile citrus]

It's the phantom edition I mean

Or I could wait for the full release and wait to get it to discount

[covert junco]

phantom just gives you what it says. there is no info that if you buy that edition you get other dlc later. so basically phantom is not like bf4 premium where you got the other dlc later for free

[wet mango]

bring back custom emblems and commander

[tiny grove]

Just do that beo

[sterile citrus]

When you say battlefield 4 I never been able to play multiplayer

[covert junco]

?

[wet mango]

should also just drop season passes, that shit gets so old

[covert junco]

ahh ok

[sterile citrus]

Should I buy bf4 premium edition is on discount for 4.79

[covert junco]

deff should have. but prob not now as the player base will fall down when 6 comes

[sterile citrus]

Oh

[wet mango]

hot take but I miss the gameplay from hardline

[covert junco]

bf4 had allot of good things. like better battlelog etc. pay for premium get the dlcæs for free later on. emblem commander etc. bf6 does what we wanted a long time ago but not when it comes to the pay stuff and modes

was kinda hoping they went full bf4 route

[tiny grove]

Might be a hot take but you're right,bfh was a better game than bf4

Bfh deserved better

[wet mango]

dude hanging out an suv and blowing up a cop car was pure cinema

[tiny grove]

With sound of da police playing

[wet mango]

hell yeah

I hope theres some hardline stuff in portal

I also hope portal allows you to get xp, but we saw how that went with bot games

[tiny grove]

Remove bots.

[wet mango]

I thought that was dumb anyways, because I remember there being a ton of bots in official servers but you still got xp

[scarlet fox]

I hope that sanctions against Russia will be lifted

Also to the person who wrote above about the Turkish language - what is the reason for the bombing, they will add all languages on release

[late drum]

The devs can try to hype Portal all day long, but after the honeymoon phase is gone, unless it is groundbreaking in innovation (doubt), it'll be just as dead and boring as 2042 Portal. Not sure how the devs believe otherwise.

(I hope I'm wrong)

[distant python]

Lift sanctions once they stop larping as 1939 germany

[scarlet fox]

I'll try to avoid politics, I'll just say that gaming sanctions only harm ordinary people, not politicians and the military

[sterile flame]

Why?

[plain sedge]

Best game

[dim grail]

Anyone playing bf6 atm ?

[plain sedge]

I got the beta early

[dim grail]

I got a code of twitch Isn’t that a early access

So I can play it now

Or is it the case of pre order

[plain sedge]

Yeah i can play beta on the 7th and other people can play on the 9th

[mighty forge]

Please dice give us a scripting api 🙏

[plucky mesa]

Did they remove 2042 from the Battlefield UI menu screen lol

[plain sedge]

Are yall playing on pc

[dim grail]

Yh

[hardy geode]

Where can you get support from EA for your Labs account being broken

[ashen sun]

How do I know if I'm signed up, guys?

[frank dirge]

does preordering bf6 gain me early acces? cant find anywhere

[tall sandal]

Do you think there's any chance of getting a game mode with gameplay feature sets similar to Hell Let Loose (Garrisons, Outposts, Supplies, etc...)? It would be so fun if so!

[hardy geode]

Don't pre order. Pre-orders are what creates bad games.

[raven owl]

you didn't answer his question tho

No, pre-ordering does not grant early access @frank dirge

[frank dirge]

thanks

[inland fjord]

Question, sorry if its been answered already, but the twitch drop code we got during the multiplayer showcase, does that strictly work on EA client or will I be able to use it on steam for early access beta?

[dull verge]

I pre ordered cause I love gambling, I am going all in on this one

[minor tartan]

tuff

[dull verge]

Also devs actually handed us very convincing evidence that it wont be 2042 again

[dry fog]

I think they might, the screenshots all show Godot engine

[minor tartan]

I see what kind of man you are

[zenith karma]

I felt that way with 2042. Never again. Don't be part of the problem for their laziness and pre-order.

[dry fog]

Which is nice, godot is really accessible

[mighty forge]

they do but it seems like scripting will only be possible through those scratch blocks 🙁

"So, if you create an experience on the web builder portal." from https://www.well-played.com.au/battlefield-6-looks-to-the-future-by-staying-true-to-its-foundations-and-creating-meaningful-change-through-community-driven-feedback/

ik the blocks are beginner friendly but man if you want to do anything more complex does it get unwieldy

[dull verge]

The amount of leaks and footage is very convincing

[dry fog]

We‘ll see I am really looking forward to it

[dull verge]

Also map design on this one is no longer just plain fields

[dry fog]

I hope someone recreates Operation Locker

[mighty forge]

i'd love to be wrong tho since there was a "scripts" folder in the godot screenshot

[mighty forge]

bro if they release an empty map, portal would go crazy

[dry fog]

minecraft flat world map

[mighty forge]

yesss

need to campaign for that 😭 😭

man if they pull portal off it would be crazy for the fps genre

you might actually see cod release mod tools again

[dry fog]

Yeah. But I am a little worried

It’s still EA

[mighty forge]

true

theres always a catch with them

oh btw join the portal community server

[dry fog]

Really looking forward to this weekend, will definitely play the beta

Sure, send me a link

[mighty forge]

might be useful for you if you want to work with portal

ill dm it

[dry fog]

If scripting is a thing 100%

[tender phoenix]

Will bf6 have a server browser?

[patent canyon]

have you gotten the email?

or what, because i got it and im kinda confused because there isnt anything to redeem in the email

[old karma]

Think we will get full xp progression in Portal with against AI?

[storm narwhal]

I portal, yes. But not for the „main game experience“

[waxen wave]

Has anyone heard any talks of 5 player squads in the future. I would hope that they up the number

[tender phoenix]

Dude they are destroying the game why

I dont get it its a basic feature that is a must for me

[storm narwhal]

Dynamic server hosting is cheaper. That’s about it

[glossy star]

Anyone know what time I can pre download the beta tomorrow?

[storm narwhal]

The dev studios have not given us a concrete reason why they ditched the browser, but at the same time asked us to provide info on why we want one

[tender phoenix]

I want a server browser not freaking portal server browser what are we going to do? Because i want the game to have one if not i aint buying it

Portal was a damn gimmick

I hated it

[old karma]

You want, you want, dude just be quiet and let the devs cook. We don't care if you don't buy the game or not.

[storm narwhal]

You’ll just have to pass on the game and save your money for GTA6. Because it ain’t happening.

I’m not sure whether I’m buying this one either. Maybe when it’s on sale

[old karma]

Yeah... go QQ more.

We don't care about what you want.

[tender phoenix]

Sucks to see gaming going down the toilet

Its all about money money

They don't care about the customers

[old karma]

Its always been like that since 2010 buddy

[lofty mulch]

looks like time you get a degree and join the team to fix the game

[tender phoenix]

Hell no and im not your buddy

[tender phoenix]

Getting a degree in hardware enginnering

[lofty mulch]

The industries try to satisfy every need of every player, this is what is happening to games

[lofty mulch]

literally i was sarcastic, idc

[tender phoenix]

Oh lol

[rain rivet]

Got my email today guys let's gooo 👏

[lofty mulch]

good for oyu

[tender phoenix]

Do u guys think they will add a normal server browser ?

If lots of people ask for it

[rain rivet]

Probably

[tender phoenix]

Maybe send them feedback in beta

[old karma]

Doubt it

[rain rivet]

Yeah I heard lots of people are gonna play the mode where weapons are locked per class, to send a message I think

[tender phoenix]

Most special thing about bf4 was it had a ticket rate for servers

Basically like 144hz servers

[sick depot]

If the portal mode is flexible, can we get bf6: project reality port?

idunno

[tender phoenix]

Super responsive

[sick depot]

i cant be the only one to have though that...

[old karma]

Go play BF4 if you want ticket rate, nobody cares.

[lone whale]

I think we should basically riot at this point

wth do you want our money or not?

[scarlet latch]

well it muse beee good game bc players will burn it down

[plain sedge]

Yea

[lone whale]

just give us this 20 year old feature and stop making us go through an interrogation

[stark bobcat]

I applied for labs but haven’t got early access code

Any one got the same problem

[mighty forge]

question. would you be satisfied if they put official full xp persistent servers in the portal browser?

[mighty forge]

check junk mail

[tender phoenix]

Yea

[mighty forge]

it really is that simple for them 😭 😭

[tender phoenix]

Imma send feedback for it

[solid kestrel]

is the beta gonna be on the ea launcher?

[dreamy field]

what would be the title of the email?

[mighty forge]

"Battlefield 6 Open Beta Early Access"

[dreamy field]

about to check my email again... ive been checking for months sadly

[steel wing]

When will it be possible to download the beta for those who received the email from Battlefield Labs?

[limpid sedge]

for early access it will be some time before the 7th

[sage fulcrum]

Can anyone explain what portal is? Can't seem to find any explanation anywhere

[mighty forge]

custom games

[sage fulcrum]

Oh I see

[dreamy field]

found the email. conntected my account to steam. are we able to preload it an wait until the 7th?

[tardy kraken]

You don't need a code, it's written right there on the email

Just whatever email u signed up it with, link it to steam or Xbox or ps or whatever

[dreamy field]

yea i did that. i was expecting to sign into steam an see like a download button or something. but nothing.

[signal plover]

what time can we start the download for the open beta

[dreamy field]

it says preload it as early as aug 4th. but i dont see anything on my steam

[signal plover]

i don't see anything on steam or the EA app

[limpid sedge]

they havent release the Beta UI yet. they will sometime early this week so im assuming tomorrow they will drop it

[signal plover]

what time is it for you guys

[bronze socket]

The hype is real!

[dreamy field]

its 7:15pm here

[bronze socket]

Tomorrow is pre load

Not today guy

[dreamy field]

im in GA

[signal plover]

it 00:15 here

[bronze socket]

August 4th

It’s likely in PST

Not in any other time zone so the beta release in PST so the pre download likely will as well

Early Access (Aug 7): 1:00 AM PT

So whatever August 4th at 1 AM PST is for you

[signal plover]

so going to have to wait a a couple of hours before i can start the download

[bronze socket]

Probably a lot of hours lol

It’s only 4 :17 in pst August 3rd

[dreamy field]

damn its still mad early for yall

[bronze socket]

Well I’m in EST it’s 1919. Anyone wanna play BF4 for shits n giggles

[signal plover]

would but don't have it installed at the moment but i have got battlefield 1 installed

[dreamy field]

I have it on my series x but not on my pc. my pc strickly for FiveM and BF6 lol only reason i bought it

been anticipating ts since they released labs

[signal plover]

same

Aug 7 is going to be the first time i actually see gameplay as i have intentionally avoided watching any so i can experience it first hand

[dreamy field]

man i wish i would of did that.

i couldn't help it though.

the force was real

[signal plover]

fare

[signal plover]

i actually almost watched some yesterday

[dreamy field]

Dont you've held out this long. its gonna make the revel that much more pleasing for sure

[signal plover]

yip

[dreamy field]

i hope my extra floor monitor stands come in before it goes live so i can stream properly

[keen hill]

I'm really hoping we can adjust day/night freely for portal. Would be pretty cool if we could choose different times to give different scenarios

[signal plover]

i think i might stream the game aswell just depens on my internet

[keen hill]

Would be really cool to have battles that start at dusk and it slowly gets darker or starts at night and then the sun comes up. Would change how games play out

[signal plover]

that would be dope

[dreamy field]

thats kinda fire

[limpid sedge]

if youve played battlefield before 2042 then you know thats a possibility

[keen hill]

The city maps could be pretty fun when it's dark with alleys etc making it risky. Kind of like the underground part of Zavod Graveyard Shift and the tested but unreleased Shanghai night from BF4.

Set times might be ideal but also being able to adjust it per hour would be cool to really get the lighting how you want it

[keen hill]

Oh I have

[signal plover]

just realized i am only going to be able to start downloading battlefield 6 at 20:00

[vast galleon]

So i have a laptop and an Xbox, can I play the beta early on both?

[dreamy field]

this "Secure Boot" stuff in the email just through me for a loop. like whut i have to do some technical stuff before downloading the game

[signal plover]

what do you mean you have to enable secure boot i can't do that as my pc only boots in legacy boot mode

[dreamy field]

i was reading through the invite email making sure there's nothing extra i need to do. an bam! extra stuff.

[dreamy field]

if you signed up for labs you can preload early if not you have to wait until the play dates

[limpid sedge]

what extra stuff?

[vast galleon]

Yeah but can I play on my laptop to see if it will run it and play on my xbox?

[signal plover]

so i just can't play the dam game then

[dreamy field]

in the email where it says "details" click on it an scroll down or read the whole thing an it will start to get into specs

[vast galleon]

I have like a 3050 laptop and I'm not sure if it is gonna run it

[signal plover]

so i need to some how find a drive i can backup 1tb worth of data on to and then reformat my drive so that i will be able to enable secure boot just so i can play the f##king game

[dreamy field]

overclock your pc. i have a msi 3050 laptop i use to game on. it was booty but i made it work by tweaking stuff. i have a rx 7700 xt12 gb now

[limpid sedge]

i didnt even read the secure boot stuff. im glad theyre adding it

[signal plover]

i am pissed off that they have added it as i can't even play it now

[limpid sedge]

..just dont cheat...

[dreamy field]

but i think in order to run the game its making players turn secure boot on an you have to go through all this extra stuff to do that.

on pc anyway

[limpid sedge]

id rather go through secure boot than have to deal with the hack load like i hadto go through in 2042 any day of the week

[idle elk]

There are few different ways to change your mbr drive to gpt without formatting. Is that your issue?

[signal plover]

bru i can't enable secure boot as my boot drive is formated in MBR and not GPT

[signal plover]

i thought you could only do it by formating

[signal plover]

what are the other methods

i think i found it going to do it now

[dreamy field]

im bout to turn my secure boot on now cause ima be pissed if i cant play on time

[signal plover]

search nice and you should get results on how to do it without data loss (""""how do you change your drives format from MBR to GPT without having to reformat the whole drive"""")

i am going ot disappear for a couple minutes so that i can do this

[limpid sedge]

for others though it states that if your BiOS is already UEFI than youre good for a secure boot.

[idle elk]

my issue was after enabling SB, windows went into repair mode. if yours does this check the log file it tell you too when it fails to repair, my micron driver was corrupted and I needed to update it before SB would work.

[frail plaza]

Most modern motherboards have secure boot auto enabled fellas, to double check just restart your pc and open up your bios and see if it’s enabled

[bronze socket]

Skill issue , jk but actually get a new mobo

[stark bobcat]

got nothing

[mighty forge]

if you applied for bf labs it should just appear in your library when pre-loading begins

it hasn't started yey

yet

[stark bobcat]

i havent had email

[limpid sedge]

basically all u need to know from the email is that you need to have secure boot enabled. other than that everything will pop up on the platform you plan on playing the beta on.

i should clarify, it doesnt tell you that in the email it tells you that from teh info on the EA website which they just have a hotlink too in the email

[stark bobcat]

last email i had was from bf6 multiplayer reveal

[tawdry ermine]

August 4th at what time?

[limpid sedge]

even if you dont have an email (like i got an email for the email address i used for battle labs but didnt get on for the email i have linked to my EA and steam account which is the one i used a key on) the beta will still be open to you for early access as long as you used your key and we should get a prompt to download the BF6 beta tomorrow. if you dont get a prompt or what ever jsut go to what ever place your playing from like steam and jsut search "battlefield 6 beta" and it should pop up for you to download

[signal plover]

mobo? also was able to reformat it as i didn't know you could do it without lossing data

[royal scarab]

How can sign up for the BF6 beta?

I'm on Xbox if that matters

[radiant harbor]

Are you referring to Early Access or just General Access Beta that starts on the 9th? If Early Access, only way you can is subscribe to EA Play Pro to gain access or have registered for BF Labs before the 31st of July.

[royal scarab]

I'm referring to whatever is the free beta 😆

[radiant harbor]

It will be open to everyone starting the 9th. Pre-Load is tomorrow.

You will just need a EA Account.

[vast galleon]

I don't think I can. It's a cheap one from Walmart for like 600

[tight pilot]

Turn off cross-platform = hate the auto aimers

Make a game, not a daycare!

[vagrant silo]

[craggy vale]

woohoo

[dull oak]

.

[orchid locust]

Hello, I have a question. I received an email to play the beta of the game on the 7th of this month. What I'm not sure about is whether or not I can stream the game.

[wispy panther]

Its an open beta so you should be good, the bottom text in the email is typically whats included no matter what communication you get from ea playtesting, there is no session details on ea’s playtesting website for this open beta either

@orchid locust

[primal forge]

I'm saddened by how the helicopter gameplay looks. It literally looks like flying a 2kg drone. I pray for DICE to come to their senses.

[vagrant silo]

@orchid locust have you pre downloaded yet ?

[orchid locust]

No, I only received the email but I still have to buy the game because the email tells me to enter my desired platform and I can download it but in all of them it asks me to buy it or pre-purchase the game.

[vague tundra]

yo guys I received the email telling me I can preload bf6 on aug 4th. its aug 4th already but how do I preload the game? I cant find it anywhere

[tall imp]

Preload is in 12 hours

[stray dust]

Can’t sign up for labs 😭

[olive wind]

too late anyways, had to be 31st of july for early access

[stark bobcat]

I’ve just entered my code now do I wait till I can download it later

[granite flower]

its like 12 hours until you can download

[stark bobcat]

Ok

[keen sundial]

I got message that im invited to beta test but cant find any pre-download in EA app

[heady lark]

You gotta wait

Till tomorrow

[keen sundial]

ok. i will believe in your word !

[heady lark]

Is it the 4th for you

[fresh canyon]

Whens the pre load going to be available?

[heady lark]

The 4th

Just scroll up a little bit guys people have said when it is above

[half gale]

Hey guys, when is preload available? /j

[heady lark]

Thats it no more mr nice guy!! AWOOOOO 😈🐺🐺

[pastel zenith]

This might be a stupid question, but does anyone know if bf6 will have hotas support?

[daring pawn]

Anyone know when pre load starts it is on the 4th

Like the time

[digital oak]

In 10 hours from now

[digital oak]

10 hours

[strong gale]

https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/7816986/my-countdown

[torpid smelt]

I redeemed the code, but never recieved an email. Anyone else experience this issue?

[smoky flame]

they should probably put the preload time on like an announcement or something

surprised its so silent here

[raw merlin]

yea im waiting for the open beta

[smoky flame]

does the bf6 section in the server only have this portal channel for you

[raw merlin]

nope got everything

[smoky flame]

oh it was hidden on mine

[raw merlin]

who playing with me when it drop

[strong gale]

discord likes to do that for some reason when channels are added or deleted

[raw merlin]

do we have a time we can play today or code

[normal mantle]

it starts at 1am pt august 7th for early access players

[nimble cobalt]

For console it’ll automatically download right? I preordered it already

[soft vine]

the 7 weeks after (assuming its good) is gonna be lit

[floral fern]

Does anyone know the actual predownload time, people be saying 8PM PST and 11 hours from now, like what...

[digital oak]

@floral fern

It's 9 hours from now

[digital oak]

https://tenor.com/view/gjirlfriend-gif-14457952604098199169

Me waiting for release be like

[verbal fossil]

Why the fuck did I sign up for BF labs 5 times and never get a confirmation email? If you don’t want me ok ….. just don’t ghost….

[digital oak]

When did you sign up ? if you've signed up after 31th july you won't get an email for early access open beta

[verbal fossil]

Multiple times throughout the course of them talking about the labs since march.

[digital oak]

Huh that's weird

I've also signed up around march though never got into the alpha of BF6 but they still gave me early access for open beta

I can play on 7th august

[thorn island]

[pallid blaze]

ts better be good im praying its not like 2042

[unborn zephyr]

I signed in feb and played pre alpha and also just recieved my invitation yesterday

[stiff sequoia]

Can any one help, how can i check since when did I subscribe in LABS, have no idea when or if i get the oportunity to play on the 7th and 8th

[verbal fossil]

This is what I’m talking about ^ I signed up 4 times and never even got an email saying “wait”

[cold perch]

If you got in labs you WILL have early access

[unborn zephyr]

You should have recived a mail stating that you are invited

[cold perch]

Bro probably typed .con instead of .com

[verbal fossil]

Funny

[cold perch]

I literally did the same thing 😂

[verbal fossil]

But no. I filled out the bull sh!t survey

[cold perch]

But on a fr note my buddy used gmail for his sign up and literally could not find it until he searched up the exact contents of the email

The survey literally says at the start your not guaranteed to get in (i think)

[unborn zephyr]

Just search for labs in Gmail and it will come up, its how i found it

[verbal fossil]

I’ll check now. Thanks for the tip.

[unborn zephyr]

Title of the invitation mail is "Battlefield 6 Open Beta Early Access", search for that 😉

[verbal fossil]

I have 0 emails from EA, Electronic Arts, or battlefield since 2022

This is odd.

[cold perch]

Yea that definitely seems weird because i think they send a thank you for completing the survey?

[verbal fossil]

Yup - never got that. That’s why it’s been so weird.

[elfin osprey]

Does anyone know if you can make videos/livestream the open beta? I don’t want my channel to get any strikes

[verbal fossil]

I’ve been logging in with my PSN account - would that have anything to do with it?

Which just so happens to be the EXACT login as my non PSN account.

[digital oak]

It's open beta anybody can play it so i'd assume you can basically do anything with it

[verbal fossil]

No way that’s it.

[unborn zephyr]

My mail states "Please keep in mind that everything related to EA Playtesting is STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL. This means no posting or sharing details of this Playtest, including the content, in person, on social media or anywhere else. "

But that prop only of the early acces and not the actual open beta 9-10

[digital oak]

I mean people also got codes from watching streamers for early access of open beta i don't think it's gonna be really a secret

[elfin osprey]

Yeah I’m wondering if it’s just cause of the early access. I’ll probably just record and not stream and then stream on the 9th and 10th to be safe

[cold perch]

Lmaoo im also curious about this id like to assume its just thier basic playtesting email template and they didnt remove it

Id like to assume a “open” beta would be open especially since multiple streamers and multiple hundreds of videos have been posted of the game we should be fine

[unborn zephyr]

They surely just keep it in the mail to have their backs covered

[cold perch]

Worst comes to worst record the footage and just dont post it until its 100% save

8am pt

[elfin osprey]

Yeah they can’t take us all down lol

[cold perch]

Like 8-9 hours still

[cold perch]

I mean the whole idea of bf labs is to have the players shape the game

If we all band together we can just bully them out of ndas

[elfin osprey]

lol exactly, I’m all for bullying corporations

[radiant harbor]

I cannot recall if I signed up for Labs or not. If I did, maybe I deleted that email while back but forgot about it. I guess I will wait and see if I can Pre-Load on steam. Otherwise, EA Play Pro is only option for Early Access.

[cold perch]

If your getting access from bf labs they wouldve sent you another email

I got mine aug 2nd i think

[radiant harbor]

Hmm, I guess that means I did not sign up since I didn't receive anything lol. EA Play Pro it is then.

[feral grail]

Hello everyone! Can I register for a purchase in advance later?

[hexed swallow]

i think everyone did

[hexed swallow]

wdym in advance? after the beta or?

[hallow silo]

I have pre ordered bf6 and it says its available 9-10 and 14-17
But wot with 7-8 avgust ? Will i be able to play from 7 to 8 tho

[wispy sparrow]

ITS THE 4TH ALREADY 😠 WHERES MY EARLY ACCESS PRELOAD

[hexed swallow]

that's early access

i think

[zenith karma]

You people need to learn to read

[odd oriole]

8hrs 22mins from this post (UK 4PM) then it’s available

To do the pre-load

[hexed swallow]

5PM in italy :c

[odd oriole]

Still only like 8hrs and 20 mins

[hexed swallow]

yeah...

[zenith karma]

#bf6-beta-info

Actually learn to read carefully

[hallow silo]

If somone yust preorder without ea + will it be for him elry aces tho

[zenith karma]

Read the link you bot

[hexed swallow]

thanks even tho i already knew

[hallow silo]

Wher can i read it ? Sorry i dont use discord to much

[odd oriole]

#bf6-beta-info

Click/tap on that highlight will take you where you need to go and everything is time stamped to YOUR country

[hallow silo]

Tnx man
And dont be so rude.Be nice to people

[odd oriole]

Somehow I don’t think he has dealt with marek info or Xocliw and his “today I’m actual gonna build a rov……oh look at Clang butterfly”

[odd oriole]

It will be worth the wait 🫡

[glossy star]

It’s a shame that pre orders don’t get early access to the beta but on the other hand I signed up for battlefield labs back when they first opened it up and never got in. Did you sign up for labs at all?

[hexed swallow]

it feels like a decade if you didnt sleep like i did

[odd oriole]

Or did you watch the event because after the EA/DICE/Battlefield studios show when big content creators got to play the game, you only had to watch like an hr to get the code to get the early access

[glossy star]

I hope they hit with the main theme for this battlefield

[odd oriole]

I feel you, then it’s someone else’s problem that you are now awake with no BF6 pre-load and someone as well as you has to deal with a grumpy you

[odd oriole]

They did

[odd oriole]

https://youtu.be/UJaosACDB2A?si=DhANReef3je2rerM

[hexed swallow]

didnt need the code

[hallow silo]

Well i have read it and stil no clear answer you idiot is it har to say ? Do i nead EA+ to play early or not YOU BOT 😇

[hexed swallow]

EA pro you mean

[hallow silo]

I cant find thet on ps5

[odd oriole]

No you needed to be at least signed up to the play tests BEFORE August so that deadline has gone, if you did apply but wasn’t selected you get instant approval, if you already played a play test you are good, and the main MP reveal on Thursday gone they was giving everyone codes for watching an hour of content creators section

[hexed swallow]

its PC only

also if you're on console you just gotta wait to download it

[odd oriole]

IF none of them don’t worry at it’s only for 2 days early play, you can still do the pre-load, in 8hrs time today so like we said 4pm UK, 5pm Italy/france/germany go toy your store (xbox/PS/steam/EA) search for Battlefield 6 Open Beta Client AS LONG AS your account is linked to the associated EA account

[glossy star]

Okay that’s a hell yeah theme song right there

[hexed swallow]

its better to be from europe than NZ or Australia

imagine them waiting like 5 days

i feel bad for them

[odd oriole]

Actual OPEN is this weekend from Saturday because early for 2 days from Thursday so don’t worry about EARLY access for the 2 extra days

[glossy star]

Good thing is about this early access to the beta is that it starts in the morning. Time to just play that shit all day

[odd oriole]

I wouldn’t as it doesn’t work like that for them, I remember F76 was meant to have a release day of a Wednesday but with time zones Aussies got it a day early technical but everyone got to play it before the actual launch day because of that time zone difference

[odd oriole]

I’m working but you bet your ass I’m gonna try take your tags when I get home

[short rivet]

Got the mail since I was on battlefield labs, how do I download??

[odd oriole]

Wait for another 8hrs

[short rivet]

Thank you!

[glossy star]

Damn bruh. In a way it’s good that my work cut my hours for this week cuz I got Friday free. Only annoying thing is that I gotta try pick up a shift today lmao

[odd oriole]

I’ve completely forgotted how to do timestamps lol

[hexed swallow]

Do they do something if you say that you've been in the pre alpha or if you received the early access email?

[hardy geode]

This is the reason big studios will continue to release unfinished games.

[glossy star]

I got an email stating that they have given me early beta access and that I don’t need a code I just need to download it and it should be sorted. If you’ve signed up for labs it might be worth checking you emails and in your spam too

There we go, now if anyone asks and is impatient and doesn’t read there’s a quick reference point

[hexed swallow]

no yeah i was wondering if you said it out loud

cause it says it's confidential or smth

[odd oriole]

Technically yes as the email may OR MAY NOT say don’t share details of the email 🤣🤣

But let’s be honest we are all overhyped soldiers missing our golden days of BF and so yes we will be telling all our BF friends who stopped play after possible 4/1/V/2042

[weary nymph]

im cautiously optimistic, but definitely not getting hyped yet. Battlefield burned me too many times to be hyped before release

[odd oriole]

Did you watch the content creator section of the Thursday MP reveal

[neat bronze]

Is there a website to go to and download the beta for early access?

[odd oriole]

<t:1754319628:t> TODAY! on your platform store (EA App/Xbox/PS/Steam)

[neat bronze]

@odd oriole Thanks appreciate the info

[hidden blade]

i have a question cant really find anything on it. if you pay for a standard Edition. Then decide to by the phantom Edition is there a upgrade price ? or not ?

[odd oriole]

FROM THAT TIME NO EARLIER, you are searching for Battlefield 6 Open Beta Client

[neat bronze]

@odd oriole Thanks got it

[odd oriole]

think that is store dependent? but makes sense you only pay the difference but if not then money satealling SOBS

[hidden blade]

okay thanks

[odd oriole]

tbh i have no idea but like i said makes sense you only pay the difference but you know what some game fronts are like

[wicked quartz]

I have early access for beta on ps5 know when can download ???

Can't find it to ps store

[latent sentinel]

hi chat. i have a question. game will just spawn in my ea acc on 4pm so i can preload or what?

[odd oriole]

Preload but open beta client

ah damn the timestamp stopped working

[wicked quartz]

@odd oriole thank you very much bro

[odd oriole]

so yeah 4PM UK, 5PM italy/france/germany

[dapper bough]

Anyone has a code for early access that they don’t intend to use and can share? Much appreciated!

[wicked quartz]

One more question

[odd oriole]

tbh is it really worth the access from thursday when the open no code needed is on saturday? im only saying as i doubt anyone will have spare code

[wicked quartz]

In this battlefield can we rent servers like 3-4

[dapper bough]

Depends on the work schedule, for me very much worth it ;/

[dull verge]

Sir here's your reddit gold

🙏

[vague tundra]

yall ive been looking at the system requirements for BF6 and do I need to upgrade from WIndows 10 to 11 to give me better performance or will it still perform the same regardless the OS?

[odd oriole]

well Win11 also needs secure boot to be active to work, think its more of a "security" thinggy but Win11 definately is more responsive then Win10

[bronze socket]

What time does ore load become available

[odd oriole]

4PM UK, 5PM italy/france/germany

so roughly 7 hours time

[bronze socket]

Ok so 11 am EST

[vagrant silo]

ahaa ok 11pm AWST

[odd oriole]

🫡

[limpid sedge]

so around 8am PST and 11am EST

and 3pm Zulu time

[odd oriole]

yup UTC 1500

[vagrant silo]

Any of the Admins or Mods be able to make a Fan Art section to post wallpapers and fan art etc etc ?

[odd oriole]

yes

[frosty path]

Greetings, I've redeemed the code provided by Twitch drops but still can't see Battlefield 6 in my library. Is this normal ?

[odd oriole]

not out yet

[keen hill]

Windows 11 does not need secure boot but since you have to have it enabled to play with EA Javelin, you'd have to enable it in Windows 10

[limpid sedge]

can i just say i cant wait to f!ck sh!t up in a black bird. i remember BF4 i used to RIIIIP in the black bird i cant wait to see if i can get back to that skill ceiling

[keen hill]

Portal in BF6 uses Godot engine

[limpid sedge]

according to the email everyone will need to be in secure boot

[keen hill]

Well yes, EA Javelin requires secure boot, as I stated.

[limpid sedge]

nvm i mis read

my bad

[keen hill]

All good

[limpid sedge]

you know what tanks i miss, the tanks from 2142. hover tanks were awesome to use

[muted zealot]

Interesting... maybe me and my friend can try and work on something... like remastering BF2 xD

[mighty forge]

i think i saw that tool, it looked like it placed objects one by one? luckily with godot, because its a full blown game engine you could probably just mass import

[vagrant silo]

glad they fixed the helis , pretty much 1 rocket kills now.

[keen hill]

I'm sure they'll have stuff locked down so you can't get too wild with it but its going to be better than the current version of Portal by a long shot

[gray rock]

im assuming on steam, the pre-load will just appear

[odd oriole]

at the time its out you have to search battlefield 6 open beta client

[gray rock]

saw someone say roughly 7 hours

well, 6 now, i believe

[odd oriole]

UTC 1500

[gray rock]

10am for me

if fortnite is doing that power rangers thing like they supposedly are, imma be quite split this weekend...and i dont even like fortnite that much

[lost dome]

did you redeem the code?

during a stream?

[hexed swallow]

Client?

wasnt it separated from the EA app?

[lyric aurora]

Guys I have an issue, I got invited to the early play test but the game didn't show up in my library and I already checked if it s the right account and it is, any solutions?

[zinc fog]

You wait

[lyric aurora]

k

[livid zephyr]

so i have pre ordered so what i do know

now

[odd oriole]

Depends what is linked to your EA account but yeah it sounds like it’s an across the board as long as it’s linked to your EA account

[odd oriole]

Wait

[livid zephyr]

i got it off the ea app om my pc

[odd oriole]

The pre-load isn’t available till UTC 1500 (so Zulu time) , which to help with EU times, UK 4pm, FR/IT/GER 5pm

[livid zephyr]

ok so when it hits 4pm it be rady to download on the app ?

[odd oriole]

If in the not so great Britishness yeah

[livid zephyr]

cool thank you

[wispy dirge]

Hi guys, question about the minimum requirements. They say you need a minimum of 16 gb of RAM, but they don't specify if it's DDR4 or DDR5 ? I assume since they didn't that it's DDR4, or even DDR3 for the oldest machines ?
Because the difference in performance can be huge

[surreal lotus]

Shouldn't matter whether it's DDr4 or DDr5.

[wispy chasm]

Im assuming if running a GTX 1080 that this game just wont run for me?

[wispy dirge]

Since it's not specified, if you have DDR5 you should be well above the FPS targets they announce

[vagrant silo]

DDR 4 you will be fine mate

[hearty shale]

is win 11 really the standard nowadays for gaming ? recommended settings says win11

[wispy dirge]

I have 32 Gb DDR5

[wispy dirge]

You will be fine with your 1080

[wispy chasm]

Oh fair enough.

[vagrant silo]

Yes, your GTX 1080 will likely be able to run Battlefield 6 (BF6), but you might need to adjust the graphics settings to achieve a smooth 60fps at 1080p or 1440p. The game is designed to be playable on a wide range of hardware, and the GTX 1080 is still a capable card, especially for 1080p gaming

[hexed swallow]

i just want to play BF6

[fresh canyon]

Anybody know what time the beta will be available for preloading AWST time?

[vagrant silo]

11 pm

mate you in WA

[fresh canyon]

Yeah

[vagrant silo]

yup 99% sure its 11pm

[fresh canyon]

Thanks

[vagrant silo]

north or south of the river

[hearty shale]

sorry for spam but i need an answer : is win 11 really the standard nowadays for gaming ? recommended settings says win11

[vagrant silo]

win 10/11 both get the job done mate

[wispy dirge]

Oh ok i found out that they do specify if it's DDR4 or DDR5. They put 2133 mhz and 3200 mhz, so it's definitely DDR4

[hearty shale]

ty <3

[odd oriole]

was said earlier but 1500 UTC if that helps

[fresh canyon]

South of river

[wispy dirge]

Which means that if you have DDR5, you can exceed the FPS targets by 10 to 20 FPS

[fresh canyon]

around carousel

[vagrant silo]

ahaaaaaaaaa sorry 2 hear that lol jks im north

[final lodge]

when is the download gonna be available today?

[vagrant silo]

whats your location mate

[final lodge]

Norway

[odd oriole]

1500 UTC, which is 4PM UK, 5PM FR/IT/GER

[final lodge]

ait ait

thanks bigman

[vagrant silo]

have 2 admit have not been this excited for a game since Unreal Tournament 99 lol

Have a look and see if you meet the required specs. ( Rough Guide ) https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri

just type Battlefield 6 into the search for a game

[odd oriole]

5HRS before someone asks 🤣

[lone edge]

I want to be powerful again give me my MK3A1 w/ Frag Rounds

No mortal shall survive in metro

[odd oriole]

i need to do metro for that rifle unlock in BF4

[sage rune]

anyone been able to preload on PC?

[dapper veldt]

I don't see it on steam, I guess it's too early

[odd oriole]

4PM UK time

[vagrant silo]

depends where you are, still a bit early

[sage rune]

well its been 3 hours since the announced date

[spark summit]

just roughly 4.5 hours more, then we can preload

[sage rune]

nevermind, they changed it lol

[woven furnace]

#bf6-beta-info what does the time say for preloading

[odd oriole]

but the announcement also said 1500 UTC which is 4pm UK

[woven furnace]

it wasn't changed

[scarlet latch]

on five PM proeload be

[sage rune]

alright

4pm it is

[hidden pendant]

Guys, it's a shame that Battlefield doesn't have creative ideas like Battlebit. No ropes on the helicopters? What's going on?
If they also added snow mountain maps with snowboarding, and water maps with water skiing it would be epic!

[verbal crystal]

How many hours till release

[odd oriole]

Bring back the partol battle boats

[odd oriole]

4hrs 35

[sage rune]

From battlebit I'd like the proximity chat tbh would be fun

[hidden pendant]

boats battle royale

[zinc fog]

I loved sneaking up on snipers and whispering "I can smell you" in the most sensual voice possible before killing them

[wispy dirge]

Do we know how the squads work ?
Let's say we are 8 friends playing in 2 squads of 4.

How do we make sure we always stay on the same team without being switched to the other team on the next game for balancing for example ?

[sage rune]

8 friends? that's a lot of friends

[odd oriole]

tbh thats always been a problem since ever

[wispy dirge]

Would be great if they fix it

[zinc fog]

Good luck getting in even just the same match outside of portal

[wispy dirge]

To have like a "main" squad, but splitted in many sub squads once in game

What we used to do in previous BFs is to start a game with 4 members, split into 2 squads of 2 and invite the remaining 4 members for example

[zinc fog]

Sounds inconvenient, but functional

[wispy dirge]

It is very munch inconvenient

[zinc fog]

Imagine how much easier a server browser would make it

[limpid sedge]

Squads have never been an issue IME they either keep up or they dont, adjust accordingly, the worst squads are usually the group of people that play together in a group larger than 4 ime in battlefield games

[wispy dirge]

It's just annoying when you are in a team and for balancing purposes they assign half of you team to the opposite team for the next match

[limpid sedge]

never experienced that personally but then again ive always just played with my and a buddy or at most 3 people total, when i play solo i just get on a team that has good respawn positioning for myself if im not in a tank or a heli lol. theyre just mobile spawn beacons

[zinc fog]

That's probably going to be the case for the quick play servers, though I'd hope portal gives the option to disable auto balancing when you set up a server

[minor tartan]

when can you download bf6

[limpid sedge]

in 3.5hrs or 1500 Zulu time

[minor tartan]

ok thx

[odd oriole]

closer to october 10th, beta today

[minor tartan]

where can you download the beta?

[odd oriole]

[vagrant silo]

[ruby igloo]

good morning everyone, i have received the email for the early access beta on pc. i have to download the external launcher or i am ready to go when the first wave of beta will be available?

[odd oriole]

ill say again though as i know others will ask, if you have all linked to EA account as stated in #bf6-beta-info then all can have beta access

[odd oriole]

yes you need the open beta client

[ruby igloo]

and where i can find this?

[odd oriole]

at 4PM today UK so roughly 4 hours, its live on all platform stores but access is to the accounts that are linked to your EA account where you redeemed the early access key

[ruby igloo]

ok so i will download from my ea app

[odd oriole]

primarily yes but if you have your steam/xbox/playstation linked it works for that too

[ruby igloo]

ok because the first beta that i played called battlefield labs i used my ea pp to download and play it

[odd oriole]

yeah that was closed alpha, thursday is closed early beta, going into open saturday but this is the everyone access, the one you did was closed environment so no openess

[ruby igloo]

ok and for this other beta is required the external launcher, let's see in few hours 🙂

[noble arch]

For whom will the beta this Thursday and friday be available for?

[odd oriole]

early access so email invite and twitch code, saturday sunday is then everyone regardless

[noble arch]

A buggers, i thought that a pre-order would give me a special code or some sort. Thanks though! Then i took 2 days of for nothing haha

[orchid locust]

Hello, I received an email saying that I can play the beta 2 days early, but I can't find where to download it. It's not on Steam, and EA asks me to make a reservation.

[odd oriole]

later, not available to 1500 UTC

[orchid locust]

thank you

[blissful ore]

Thanks, then everything is fine, i received this email and already linked everything 🙂

[odd oriole]

YUP just await 4pm UK then search for battlefield 6 open beta client

[signal plover]

has everyone you is going to play battlefield 6 made sure they have secure boot enabled as it is required

[sonic kernel]

Okay so I'm lost, The email said on Aug 4th to search Bttlefield6 open Beta, to download the content for the beta. Nothing is coming up via Steam

[odd oriole]

in 3hrs

[sonic kernel]

Your sure? I didnt see a specific time in the email for Aug 4th.

[odd oriole]

#bf6-beta-info

says in there so yes im sure just as sure as others here

[noble arch]

Awrsome i got an email aswell🥰 thanks

And for the ps5 players is will be open for download right? For those who got an email

[odd oriole]

as long as linked to the EA account the email was sent to yes

[normal oriole]

will i just get immediate access to the steam copy for pre-loading? or will it go to my microsoft acc that i don't use much?

or do i just get an option of both?

[odd oriole]

no as its a pre-load for beta that starts thursday

[normal oriole]

the preload starts in a few hours

[odd oriole]

yes but not the actual beta

[normal oriole]

<t:1754319600:F>

i know, i get to try it on the 7th

[odd oriole]

which is pre-load not beta

ok so i missunderstood the first question

[normal oriole]

that's okay lol

i was wondering how it chooses your preferred platform

[odd oriole]

so if you have steam AND xbox linked yes both have it

as long as linked to the EA account with access its then a you choice of where you go for the open beta client

[normal oriole]

😌 thank you!

wasn't looking forward to using the xbox store lmao

considering how much they've decided to integrate bf6 with steam now, and even the friend system

[odd oriole]

yeah as long as its linked to the EA account you can get access

[normal oriole]

so it uses your same username on steam

without even needing the ea play platform i think too

[odd oriole]

think it will use your EA account name

[zealous creek]

What time does the preload start?

[normal oriole]

was watching the latest jackfrag video earlier, that's not the case apparently anymore

[odd oriole]

but use the steam friends list as well as battlelog friends

well thats good to know

[normal oriole]

i'm excited they've gone back to the roots of beta testing and community feedback, feels like we're getting bad company mixed with bf3/4

[zealous creek]

Exactly

[normal oriole]

grew up with 1942 and desert combat

niche 1942 mods and even bf2 ones lol

there was an interstate 76 mod at one point too

[odd oriole]

OG BF2 for me not bad company

[zealous creek]

BF2 i cut my teeth on

[normal oriole]

used to be the go-to at lans, 1942 and BF2

mixed with quake and cs:s

then in the later years bf3, but you couldn't really do a proper lan

servers were expensive
