[obsidian ledge]

[lyric aurora]

[golden umbra]

Oh ok i think i have ea play subscription

[rose kayak]

Hi. I have early access, but cant seem to find the open beta for preload on the EAapp or steam.

[odd oriole]

though EA PLAY PRO yes, if just normally like steam or xbox store no

[grand edge]

[rose kayak]

[zealous creek]

Its a beautiful main menu though

[cyan sluice]

[odd oriole]

I was able to download the play test beta but got a error when trying to open it

[odd oriole]

#direct-communication

[atomic flint]

[rain tide]

Anyone else get that security code?

[ocean gazelle]

dammit, secure boot error 111

i alr got

[rain tide]

Yes

That one

[atomic flint]

secure boot? just go turn it on in the bios

[rain tide]

What is that

[ocean gazelle]

secure boot anabled

but it stilll says the same thing

[twilit crown]

How is the compress? Can you share it?

[ocean gazelle]

i set to windows uefo and deafult

[atomic flint]

open up "System Information" and search secure boot state, is it on there?

[odd oriole]

you need to turn off your pc, turn it back on and go to the BIOS, and turn on secure boot

[obsidian ledge]

How much is ea pro?

[atomic flint]

depends on where you're from, it's 16 here

[tribal linden]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[ocean gazelle]

command?

[obsidian ledge]

Ty

[rain tide]

So should that fix the issue?

[atomic flint]

no, just search "system information" and you should find it

[pastel coyote]

I been staring at my logitech keyboard looking for any secret messages too lmao in the backllitkeys

[atomic flint]

[ocean gazelle]

i mean i can run 2042

[atomic flint]

2042 didn't need secure boot I don't think

[scarlet latch]

you need

[pliant sundial]

Gotta a question about early access, I heard someone say (I believe this was jackfrags who said this) that if you signed up for battlefield labs before the 30th you also get early access. Is this true? If so, how would I know I even have access?

[rain tide]

secure boot error 111 is the one I got

[ocean gazelle]

111

[nova hill]

you need both secure boot and a tpm 2.0o

[odd oriole]

would of had an email

[ocean gazelle]

i run W11

green

alr got in

[pliant sundial]

Hmm alright appreciate it

[ocean gazelle]

OMG driver

[odd oriole]

[rose kayak]

Found it using the link for steam, thanks.

[pliant sundial]

I'll have to see since I haven't gotten anything but I'm pretty sure I signed up before the 30th

[devout ingot]

i pre order yesterday and i got eary access

[odd oriole]

[lavish forge]

64 Hours 15min before it goes live if my calculations are correct for early access

[pliant sundial]

Alright cool, thanks a lot

[odd oriole]

[crystal jewel]

[odd oriole]

[crystal jewel]

[nimble snow]

is it possible to play now ?

[crystal jewel]

Ohhh

Ok got it

[pine frigate]

cant preload its not in my games on the ea app

[open pivot]

I got early access from my playtest account and went to link it to my xbox account only to discover that a really old ea/email was connected to my xbox account because I've had the account for like 15 years and ea support couldn't unlink it for me so am I screwed on playing the early access

[crystal jewel]

You got your email?

[odd oriole]

its not a direct to libary thing ->#direct-communication

[restive talon]

if i played labs on the EA app can I play the early access through steam?

[warped pollen]

https://www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/battlefield-6-open-beta/9n82w416g5kk

[odd oriole]

[lusty wren]

Can i download from steam if i have early access or do i need ea app?

[grizzled quiver]

[reef ruin]

Steam works

[open pivot]

I got the beta downloading but how is it going to let me access it Thursday if I can't link my current EA account with the early access

[odd oriole]

if your steam is linked to the EA account yes you can

[woeful surge]

Is anyone having issues linking their EA with PlayStation?

[odd oriole]

saturday is open so if you cant link your steam to the EA account with early access youll be able to for open on saturday and sunday plus the weekend after

[ruby pasture]

I have bf6 closed beta access will the install for battlefield 6 open beta on xbox let me play the closed beta

[peak grove]

Wil there be an profile for the corsair ICUE systems??

[mossy basin]

I just put in my key where can I download the close beta ? Do I have to wait until it’s release ?

[jovial bolt]

Goated for the link

[pliant sundial]

Would people be getting emails by now about it? Checked my personal and said it was last updated on the 31st so I think I'm outta luck on that.

[peak grove]

I have it still installed from labs

[crystal jewel]

When did you sign up

[odd oriole]

you can do the install today and sort out settings but the servers arent active till the early access on thursday

[near blade]

theres anyway to get code?

[odd oriole]

pay for EA PLAY PRO unfortunately

[pliant sundial]

It was during the reveal and all that stuff goin down on twitch about it. I tried to link my twitch stuff but was too late by the time drops cleaned up.

Says I changed everything on the 31st

[small rock]

MY GAME LAUNCHED

[vagrant flame]

Ps5??

[pliant sundial]

[peak grove]

People with early acces aug 7. Can play it earlier

[odd oriole]

no

7th august is the early play

[peak grove]

Yeah thats what i mean

[primal shard]

We have an issue guys amd users if wanting to play bf6 it forces us to use 24.30.31.3 then says the required driver version is 25.10.13.1 so 25.3.1 drivers will not work with bf6 💀. just tested when loading

[tender phoenix]

Guys i got early access but i didnt see it in library neither steam or ea . If i added it in steam will it work?

[peak grove]

With early access kan play it 7

Like me lol

[odd oriole]

its not a dirext to libary thing, please go to one of the links above

[peak grove]

Can someone PIN this message!!

[chrome hazel]

Where are these links

[mossy basin]

So I can play it on Thursday since I got a key ?

[peak grove]

This one i mean

[tiny crown]

Just decided to try and launch it after downloading it (I know the game is not live), but before I can even launch it, it says that secure boot is not enabled even though it is in my BIOS

For anyone else that runs in the Secure Boot issue for Gigabyte motherboards, this fixed it for me

https://www.reddit.com/r/gigabyte/comments/ql5z7x/secure_boot_enabled_but_not_active_for_windows_11/hj13tt8?context=3

[open pivot]

Is there anyway to email them to send me my code because I can't link my EA account that has access

[odd oriole]

seriously i just posted them before you said this message

[odd oriole]

yes

[chrome hazel]

Sorry I am busy i wasnt looking

[mossy basin]

Bet thanks

[chrome hazel]

Ok thanks got it

[odd oriole]

its ok just people arent reading or looking today and ive been trying to help as many people as i can with this today

[safe goblet]

EA could do the funniest thing ever and open the servers rn

[vagrant flame]

@odd oriole key not gonna work for ps5 for sure

[high mesa]

Just to clarify.. we will already have early access to the open beta client right on the 7th? As long as we've signed up for labs through our EA Acct before July 31st?

[odd oriole]

its account based not platform based, the key greants the EA ACCOUNT access, as long as your PSN account is linkred to the EA account with the redeeemed key you have access

[dim grail]

yes i believe so

[odd oriole]

correct

[vagrant flame]

Will it ask to log on the bf6 app ?

Ps5

[open pivot]

I've been trying to be a part of the play tests since February and was hyped when they sent me the early access to the beta but now that I can't link it I'm at a loss as to what to do

[safe goblet]

why did you let us pre-load i cannot wait til the 7th i need to play NOW

[odd oriole]

as consoles work bit differently it should do thew quick log in like if you went to EA site and logged in using PS account, it should do it that way like with BF4/1/V/2042

[vagrant flame]

As long as it ask to log it’s ok

[round berry]

Loaded into the Beta 🔥 Dang I wish they'd allow a shooting range while we wait

[night grove]

damn looks like cant play bf6 on linux then

[odd oriole]

so you can get it installed, settings adjusted ready to just hit play on thursday

[worn dome]

damn really ?

[odd oriole]

thats a nice thing and we cant have nice things 🤣

[atomic flint]

it uses kernel A/C, good luck with that :d

[night grove]

yeah just tried

[safe goblet]

i can't wait 3 days i've been too hyped for this since labs was announced

[night grove]

outright says: wine, proton, steamdeck not supported

[high mesa]

You need secureboot, tpm, and uefi I'm pretty sure

[odd oriole]

as long as your PS account is linked to the EA account with the redeemed key for early access youll be good for thursday

[high mesa]

Not sure if linux let's you have those things

[atomic flint]

it does, but that's not why you can't play this game on linux

[odd oriole]

do what ive been doing and play BF4 the hyppe has made players return to it and it wont be too much of a difference

[calm wigeon]

bro im so ready to do these challenges

[lyric aurora]

How do I get the damn thing on my PS5

[trim garnet]

Should I download the pre-load on steam or ea app?

[calm wigeon]

prob steam

[atomic flint]

steam, and then uninstall the ea app

[odd oriole]

https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/UP0006-PPSA28176_00-BETABETA00000000/

[vagrant flame]

I got the key on m’y ea account but linked my psn after

[modest ice]

Bruh I have to go in bios for this smh

[trim garnet]

I did get a code so I can play on the 7th so maybe it would be safer to go through EA app right now guys?

[atomic flint]

link your ea account and steam and you're good

[stoic oyster]

I did all of that but I still can't pre load the game

[odd oriole]

as long as that EA account is linked to your platform of choice ie steam xbox PS you can play the beta on them

[trim garnet]

they're linked so I guess the answer is either?

[atomic flint]

The game isn't magically dropped into your library, you need to go and get it

[odd oriole]

yes your choice

[blissful gulch]

Need teammates for open beta early access who wit me?

[trim garnet]

is there much difference between them?

ea and steam

[atomic flint]

controller is definitely better on steam, otherwise it's just whatever you prefer

[high mesa]

Guys I'm sorry, I'm not sorry, I have to pre-order it so I can get the Phantom Edition. I NEED PACK's SKIN

[trim garnet]

I will use EA app for now bros ty ❤️

[odd oriole]

[calm wigeon]

[atomic flint]

and ea play pro members

[odd oriole]

and EA PLAY PRO

[calm wigeon]

yo i'm totally going recon

[cold perch]

Im gonna be honest idk what that is im a ps player

[merry tangle]

just curious, for portal in bf6, could we make custom vehicle models for planes and tanks?

[odd oriole]

EA subscription

[trim garnet]

you only had to watch for an hour on twitch... there wasn't really much luck involved 😛

[merry tangle]

or straight up custom new vehicles?

[atomic flint]

models probably not from the looks of it

sadly

[iron helm]

oof

[keen pike]

So I was in Labs and I got the code from the Twitch streams. How can you tell if you got the early Aug 7th access? And on what system?

[cold perch]

And ea pro

[tender phoenix]

[fathom lintel]

If I signed up for BF Labs but wasn't called, will I get early access?

[odd oriole]

no the download is for early access AND OPEN sessions this saturday sunday AND THE WEEKEND AFTER

[terse bay]

[trim garnet]

[keen pike]

From some vids, Beta will not have everyrhing. Like it does not ahve all weapons, etc etc

[odd oriole]

YES

[terse bay]

Everyone go to the bf6 steam page, click access and it will give you access

[atomic flint]

I heard that it's not going to be available until launch :(

[calm wigeon]

I watched Nadeshot on Twitch for an hour while the reveal event was happening

[cold perch]

Did you get any email from them confirming your sign up for bf labs? If you did you should have access

[fathom lintel]

LESGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[stoic oyster]

[stoic oyster]

I already checked there

[cold perch]

TO EVERYONE ASKING IF LABS GIVES YOU ACCESS TO EARLY ACCESS THEY WOULDVE SENT YOU ANOTHER EMAIL STATING SO

[stoic oyster]

I don't see that

[fathom lintel]

I dont remember this. I signed for bf labs on the first day and dont get it

[keen pike]

I got a code from Twitch, hopefull no weird stuff happens since I was in labs s well.

[odd oriole]

yup download only today butr can access settings so you can ajust ready to just hit play on thursday

[atomic flint]

link your steam and ea account

[stoic oyster]

I did

[odd oriole]

youll be in

[stoic oyster]

I already told you I did all of the steps and I did get invited

[calm wigeon]

i just redeemed the key but i didn't find it in my EA Play library so i downloaded it on Steam

[trim garnet]

Click the correct link for your platform that Overseer Wormee keeps sending

[atomic flint]

you on windows?

dunno then, try restarting steam

otherwise just get it through the ea app

[cold perch]

We need to normalize being able to preload playtests and limited betas my slow ass wifi will actually be ready to play

[trim garnet]

that should work too I think as long as ea and steam are linked 🙂

[atomic flint]

just get gigabit 😉

[cold perch]

And im happy asf im not gonna be waiting a entire day to download it

[odd oriole]

its not a direct to libary thing, the key is just account acess not a game key

[calm wigeon]

oh

thank you broskis

[cold perch]

Not in the economic situation for something like that

[sand tartan]

Damn, I signed up at the time and never got an email to confirm which I thought was strange

[atomic flint]

sadge, atleast you got a preload for this one

[patent chasm]

35.7 GB is kinda small no?

[odd oriole]

on store page its should be just above the actual buy options

[tacit fiber]

We want a body cam in mod portal

[cold perch]

Honestly 🙏🙏

[sand tartan]

Now EA is telling me I don't have an account...

[stoic oyster]

wow genius, if you don't know how to help then don't.

[raw iron]

for a limited feature multiplayer game? seems fine

[stoic oyster]

there isn't that's the problem

[atomic flint]

not my fault you're having skill issues lol

just get it through ea

[odd oriole]

nope as its limited assets, full game is gonna be 80GB install, remeber just because its a 37GB downlod doesnt mean it will be a 37GB install because zipping and compressing

[tacit fiber]

We want a body cam in mod portal in ps5 🥹

[stoic oyster]

stop yapping then and go 'help' others

[astral timber]

So will bf6 portal have asset zoos to help create custom maps?

[high mesa]

Is no one talking about how CRAZY FORGE WILL BE IN BATTLEFIELD?

[atomic flint]

if you mean a list of assets, yeah, they have a whole bunch of assets you can use

[odd oriole]

ok sorry, so what is the problem and we can try help you

[coral jungle]

RTX 3060 TI for 1440p - High - DLLS?! @ 144FPS/HZ ?

[odd oriole]

very, me and doggo was between the same stuff

[tawny tulip]

So how the early access works for pc? I've signed up for the labs and not sure which one to download, the ea app one or steam one

[astral timber]

Oh? So it really is like forge. Awesome

[atomic flint]

either one works, I would do steam (make sure to link your ea acc and steam)

[cold perch]

Steam one I think (i believe labs will be used for further testing in the future)

[keen pike]

I hope they give players a "Forge" Map like what Halo does. A map where it is literally a blank slate.

[slim quarry]

Downloaded BETA 😋

[high mesa]

If you go through steam you don'

[odd oriole]

personal prefereance as long as your steam is linked to the EA account with early access

[muted jackal]

What is it on ps

[calm wigeon]

here's the main screen if yall are interested https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3542056262

[stoic oyster]

so I did all of the steps required for the pre-load and early access being available to me. The problem is that the button for the pre-load or whatever that is in the store page doesn't show up for me. not from the web or the steam app itself.

[rustic shadow]

what % of download are you guys at? mine is super slow

[cold perch]

Just click bf 6 and click the button that shows all versions it will be there

[atomic flint]

it's been done for 40 minutes now 😂

[tawny tulip]

Ah I see, steam is the way ig

[atomic flint]

use steam instead of EA, it's quicker

[rustic shadow]

yeah damn. i have 300/300 but only getting 5 mbs at ea.

[odd oriole]

have you restarted steam? as sometimes that helps and it is a legit thing

[lunar lake]

on the EA app, if you type Battlefield 6, it should suggest Battlefield 6 Open Beta next to the pre-order of Battlefield 6

[inland fjord]

Wait so even though I got an early access key from twitch, I can't use it unless I own the game?

[atomic flint]

yeah ea can't handle how many people are currently dling it

[stoic oyster]

I have done that.

[atomic flint]

you can, early access is for non-preorders as well

[odd oriole]

no that was a miss typing from them, base game in this regards is the beta client

[atomic flint]

you use it in the ea site or the ea app, then you can link your ea account with whatever platform you wanna play on

[high mesa]

I

[tawny tulip]

The open beta is a separate app/game, and its free. If you already have the key tied to your account then you should be able to join the early access

[high mesa]

I'm loading the launcher to make sure my hardware will not crash like 2042

[atomic flint]

bricks your pc

[odd oriole]

when did you restart it?

[high mesa]

you guys should do the same if you had problems with 2042, so far so good

[calm badger]

I was in closed testing and got my invite for early access. I tested on PS5 but I want to play on PC, will I be able to do that or do I have to play on PS5 (I realllly don’t want too, I haven’t played console in years).

[patent chasm]

All i want is Operation Locker from battlefield 4 do u think this will happen?

[inland fjord]

Does it matter which platform I download from? (Steam/EA etc..)

[stoic oyster]

right now and several other times before I started chatting here.

[coral jungle]

Friends, which GPU do you have in your system?

[atomic flint]

Yes you can, link your EA account with steam, and play through steam, OR play through the EA app

[cold perch]

I think its tied to your ea account so if its the same on console as your pc i think your fine

[odd oriole]

ok then it really is a steam problem and nothing we can do sorry

[high mesa]

You have no idea how bad my hesrt just broke when it actually just bricked

[calm badger]

Perffffeccccttt. Thank you.

[high mesa]

It literally just did that

[mystic finch]

I have a question, if I get a closed beta code can I use it on PS5 or is it only on the EA app on pc?

[stoic oyster]

Thanks for the help! it ain't worth this much trouble just to play a game. have fun tho.

[atomic flint]

all platforms, link your ea acc

[odd oriole]

as long as your PS account is linked to the EA account with the redeemed key yes

[mystic finch]

Okay thank you!

[keen pike]

IDK if it is fully preference. I got an email saying that if you got access through Labs, to stick to the same platform?

• If you played a Battlefield Labs session or the Load Test weekend, use the same platform and account to access the Open Beta on August 7.
• If this is your first time, the EA Account associated with this email already has access. You'll get early access to the EA app, Xbox, PlayStation, or Steam account linked to this EA Account.

[stray ingot]

The download even if you got the early access is the same?

[high mesa]

I don’t get it my system can handle it and I don’t have any problems with any other games besides 2042 and new battlefield 6 apparently like wth is going on with their clients please someone help I have secure boot enabled with uefi, tpm 2.0 enabled the whole shabang I’m so confused

[odd oriole]

yes

[high mesa]

💔

[patent chasm]

please tell me there is no aim assist on consoles lol i hope they dont force us to cross play x(

[keen pike]

Am I missing something? Cause I want to play on steam but I Labs tested on EA app

[cold perch]

Man you can really tell how few people actually went and checked thier emails before coming to this chat💀

[odd oriole]

cross play optional and a setting

[atomic flint]

there is aim assist, and there is a crossplay option, but people on pc can still play with controllers so it doesn't change anything really, just getting less aimbots in the enemy team maybe :D

[keen pike]

Say fuck it and download both? PC platforms?

[odd oriole]

full specs?

[brittle burrow]

so ive downloaded the game. does that mean i get to play on the 7th, and the other 2 weekend dates theyve announced? or do i need to do something else for those

[wary anvil]

I signed up for battlefield labs and filled out the survey a few months ago, but never got invited to a play test. Am I supposed to be getting a key in my email? Or is this for ppl who signed up AND got an invite to an actual play test.

[cold perch]

Same one for all 3 weekends and the 7th is aslong as you got the code and or were a labs tester

[odd oriole]

as long as steam is linked to that EA account your fine

[atomic flint]

7/8th you only get access if you got ea play pro, are signed up for bflabs, or got a twitch key

the rest of the days are open

[calm wigeon]

You guys have any advice for early BF players? I got into the series about 2 years ago and I've been on and off. I started with BF1 and then played 2042 for a while but I was late to both of those. Just want to hear y'all's experiences/advice. 😁

[brittle burrow]

ah ok ive got a key 👍

[odd oriole]

no if you signed up for labs before 31st your in for early on thursday

[sudden kettle]

Does anyone have controller settings??

[exotic glacier]

Easy way to find out, Pre-download the open beta which everyone can do right now. Then on the 7th if you have early access you will be able to play. If not then you have to wait until the 9th.

[odd oriole]

assualt is easy to get into, medic youll get abuse if you dont medic so get good on assualt then try medic

[atomic flint]

check your email, you should've gotten a confirmation email (no key included) that you have access

[high mesa]

i9 10850k 10th gen, rtx 3080 oc, 32gb ddr4 ram, 3 tb storage

[odd oriole]

whats the storage? HHD SSD OR M.2

[high mesa]

Both

[brave skiff]

Open beta downloaded. Now what, do I sleep until thursday?

[rain scarab]

ye

[atomic flint]

launch it up and fix up your settings

[high mesa]

two are m.2 ssd

[atomic flint]

then sleep until thursday

[high mesa]

one is hdd

[wary anvil]

No email unfortunately. Going to preload and see what happens. 😀

[odd oriole]

go into settings adjust accordingly then wait till thursday

[brave skiff]

can I try to shoot anything while changing settings?

[cold perch]

Thier seems to be a big chunk of people who did all the steps but never even received a confirmation from labs saying they signed up🫡 i seen so many people from yesterday with the exact same issue

[atomic flint]

Hmm interesting, everyone I've seen from BFLabs said they got an email 🤔

[exotic glacier]

You can start it up and change settings and stare at the main menu lol

[keen pike]

Does battlefield ever do HOTAS support? I recall just recently when I tried to set it up in BF4 it was all kind of jank. IDK if it ever changed going forward in the games.

[atomic flint]

Interesting, might have access either way then if you just signed up for it

They might've had issues with sending that many emails out :D

[brave skiff]

but my settings dont mean anything if I can't shoot anything

[pastel coyote]

#screenshots-and-clips message

create a desktop countdown and stare at it like me

[odd oriole]

what is it installed onto?

[high mesa]

interesting question

[exotic glacier]

True, So then sleep until Thursday it is!!

[atomic flint]

@high mesa did it crash your pc when you started it up or what exactly?

Have a look inside Event Viewer for any logs that might be related

[frail plaza]

If you want to play on the 7th you need to have one of 3 things, you signed up for Battlefield LABS before the 31st of July, you acquired a code for the beta from a twitch drop, or you pre ordered the game, also I think some people were saying if you buy an EA pro subscription you can get in that way aswell

[odd oriole]

if on the rsut drive, move to the M.2

[high mesa]

I can’t read that event log

[atomic flint]

preorder !== early access!

[high mesa]

Also I’ve installed it on both drives before same issues with 2042

[frail plaza]

Are you saying pre order does not equal early access?

[high mesa]

“Your computer ran into a problem and needs to restart we’re just collecting data”

[brittle burrow]

yes ive got a key thanks for the clarification! 🙂

[odd oriole]

how did you fix that?

[high mesa]

Never did

[cold perch]

That sounds like a bios crash? (I am NOT a pc guy im probably wrong)

[high mesa]

I tried all the steps enabled secureboot turned on tpm 2.0

[barren delta]

aren't the requirements for bf6 80gb? why am i downloading 40gb?

[atomic flint]

What was the error?

It should have an error code when it blue screens

[high mesa]

I don’t know 🤷🏽‍♂️ how to read it

[mighty forge]

not the full game, only a subset

[atomic flint]

Look up how to enable windows blue screen debug logs

[odd oriole]

zipping and compression

[cobalt path]

Cause is the beta.

[atomic flint]

You'll have to install WinDbg and then after you crash once you'll be able to see what caused it

[cold perch]

The other 40 is gonna be the campaign BELIEVE IT

[high mesa]

I have whocrashed

[wary sable]

I got the early access code and just installed the beta now, would we just be able to boot it up on ps on early access day?

[atomic flint]

Never used it, don't know what it does

[calm wigeon]

bro is the realest

[odd oriole]

as long as that account is linked to the EA account with early access yes

[wary sable]

Thanks

[high mesa]

What is Kernel-IO

oh wise one

I keep seeing it in the logs

[odd oriole]

power? whats your PSU?

[atomic flint]

What's the exact log?

Kernel-IO crash could be a lot of different things

[high mesa]

I think I found it.. it says that “denuvo anti cheat update services cannot be found”

[atomic flint]

You can ignore kernel power 41 errors, as you'll get 1 every time you get a bios crash

[atomic flint]

Nah that shouldn't cause a crash

Find specifically where the BugCheck is, and what happened before that point

Like the last couple errors

Make sure you've sorted the event log list by time, and you're looking around the time you got the blue screen

[high mesa]

ok here’s the critical log

from when it caused

bugcheck code 131073

[atomic flint]

that seems to be a hypervisor error code, do you have Hyper-V enabled?

[high mesa]

What is Hyper-v

do i need to go into the bios for that

[atomic flint]

No that's not in the bios, look up Windows Features in the search and you should find it

Do you use any apps that utilize VMs? EG is VMWare, WSL, Google Play Beta

[high mesa]

“Windows Hypervisor Platform”

it’s not enabled

[atomic flint]

What about Hyper-V

[high mesa]

Let me see if enabling that helped I can’t find Hyper-V under the features

that was the closest thing there

[atomic flint]

Nah you should have it off

Hyper-V should be higher up in the list, it's possible your device doesn't support it tho

[feral grove]

https://tenor.com/view/bf6-battlefield-battlefield-6-battlefield-vi-ea-gif-44134836087477716

[atomic flint]

if you click anywhere in the window and then press H it should take you to it, if it's there

[high mesa]

I guess my pc doesn’t support

[atomic flint]

Alright that's fine, go back into the event viewer, and CTRL+F BugCheck

[lament dawn]

So I got the message that I got early access for the BETA, but where do I now find where to pre load it? Because when i look up "Battlefield 6 Open Beta" on steam, I cant find it?

[atomic flint]

Go into the BF6 page and there should be a button to apply

[lament dawn]

in steam?

[atomic flint]

Yeah

[robust patio]

Portal will be lit

[high mesa]

I have the bug check pulled up under systemlogs

[atomic flint]

In the description below (under General) do you see where it says A dump was saved in: ....?

Or does it just say that the computer didn't cleanly shut down

[high mesa]

Yes it’s a minidump

[pliant sundial]

Question about early access, I checked and I signed up for labs on the 26th however on the 31st I changed my information to a different email in order to link my twitch. However from what I can tell still no email or code about early access. Would it have sent it to the old email or my new one?

[lament dawn]

Thanks ❤️ you are the best!!

[atomic flint]

Cool, install WinDbg Preview through the microsoft store, go to the dmp file and open it with it

[lament dawn]

Thank you so much!! ❤️

[atomic flint]

Probably new one, but some people didn't get any emails

[pliant sundial]

Hmm alright, because my Xbox account is linked to both emails, however I just had to change it for the sake of the twitch stuff

[atomic flint]

I think it should be good

[odd oriole]

should be ok to go on thursday

[mystic finch]

I have redeemed my code on ea app

[pliant sundial]

Hmm alright, appreciate it guys. Thanks for the help.

[mystic finch]

And it’s linked to my psn account

Where do I now download the closed beta?

[atomic flint]

^^

[verbal surge]

is portal just a level creator now? Can we play with older bf titles weapons, maps etc?

[odd oriole]

so on your EA account of that email make sure your PS account is linked to that and your set

[tiny grove]

Roblox battlefield

[mystic finch]

Yeah I’ve linked the account

[atomic flint]

you probably won't be able to import custom models, so just whatever is available

[high mesa]

Then

[atomic flint]

but it looks like you will be able to script stuff

[mystic finch]

Now on my ps5 where do I download it?

The closed beta

[odd oriole]

Playstation: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/UP0006-PPSA28176_00-BETABETA00000000/

[atomic flint]

you see the blue text that says something along the lines of v!analyze ...?

click that

[high mesa]

yes

[verbal surge]

so its different than bf 2042?

[mystic finch]

Isn’t this the open beta?

[atomic flint]

it's much more extensive this time around

[oak python]

LET ME INNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[mystic finch]

My code was for the closed beta

[atomic flint]

That will be used for both

[odd oriole]

its all the same, this "closed" beta is 2 day early access so 2 days extra to the open

[high mesa]

“The hypervisor has encountered a fatal error”

[atomic flint]

Closed beta is just 7/8th, open beta is 9/10 and then later as well

[mystic finch]

Ohhh okay thank you so much for letting me know

Downloading now

[atomic flint]

Can you take a screenshot of that and dm it

the bottom of the logs

[pastel coyote]

bump! ⭐ 🫡 🦅
#screenshots-and-clips message
my friend made a sweet BF6 background, link in the community creations channel you can download!! I added a countdown timer!!

[odd oriole]

yup is halo forge but BF

[tender phoenix]

We need server browser

[zinc lance]

Today is the pre download right?

Anyone know the time frame of when we can?

[slow pivot]

I got excited when this email came in 15 minutes ago, "This Is Your War. Fight It. Open Beta Live Now"

[neat mesa]

yes

[late light]

Anyone know how to activate secure boot or sum

[neat mesa]

its specify with your mainboard.

you must go in bios

[late light]

Bruh

[neat mesa]

which Mainboard do you have? @late light

[frail plaza]

Open your bios, check and see if it’s enabled- if yes- your good to go- if no- enable it

[chilly basin]

[bold sedge]

need to see a guide for you motherboard model.

[frail plaza]

Most modern motherboards have it auto enabled, you should check tho

[late light]

AMD ryzen 5 5600x 6 core

[frail plaza]

That’s your cpu bud

[neat mesa]

mainboard not cpu

!!!

[frail plaza]

Motherboard

[neat mesa]

for example : asus 790 e-gaming .....

[late light]

My bad one sec

[willow hedge]

is there a single place that shares everything we know about Portal so far?

[zenith delta]

seriously developers, you should have thought about people running in dual boot, we can't set Secure Boot to Windows UEFI mode + System config. that's really a good way to sell less games 🙂

[frail plaza]

Simon says, go to the community updates page

[delicate cypress]

Ain't not shot, it's the man I grew up watching on YT.

[willow hedge]

I see what you did there sir

[chilly basin]

Motherboard is used with computers mainboards are reffered to with most other electronics

[willow hedge]

Definitely excited for portal - hopefully there's more resources on day 1

[delicate cypress]

Just looking for those halo reach custom game lobbies in BF Portal

[willow hedge]

Yeah, curious how it'll compare to what can be done in Forge/Fortnite/etc

[odd oriole]

bring on the minigames

[willow hedge]

and how accessible it is

[late light]

Tug gaming x570 plus

[keen hill]

You can with any decent Linux distro that's signed. Anything unsigned won't let you without a major headache and not even then.

[delicate cypress]

Assuming on the brief showcase, it should be somewhat limitless - it'll be down to the person(s) creating the modes.

[chrome marten]

it would be grand if there was documentation and I'm not forced to sit through hour long videos 😭

[frail plaza]

Community updates and the short segment from the multiplayer reveal video is all the info we have I’m pretty sure

[modest bay]

How to I add my labs account so I get early access

[frail plaza]

I already know ur gonna do some wild videos with it lmao

[zenith delta]

not on Fedora 42

[willow hedge]

Unfortunately during the launch of the last title... I was told to refer to the tool tips in game -_- there was nothin.

[modest ice]

Great I’m stuck in bios why can’t bf6 just run like any other game

[odd oriole]

and it used gadot and not the french actress

[willow hedge]

Gotcha, thank you. Hopefully there's some opportunities to hit the floor running with documentation before launch.

[modest bay]

What mtoherboard do you have? Most of the yt videos I found were shit but one was good

[foggy roost]

if i play bf6 open beta on the ea app and then buy it on steam do my stats transfer if i have steam and ea account linked?

[chrome marten]

bruh, tooltips?

[willow hedge]

I had to install some default keys (option on the same page as secure boot option) to get it to work

[willow hedge]

ya, was not ready for show time

[odd oriole]

should do as its a crossplay game @foggy roost

[willow hedge]

optimistic this will be a lot different

[crystal jewel]

The goat swiftor

[keen hill]

You certainly can but whatever

[chrome marten]

I am SO hyped

[modest ice]

Idk how to do or what to do

[delicate cypress]

Secure boot -> for most BIOS'
F7 (Advanced) -> Boot -> Secure boot, Windows OS EUFI -> Custom -> f10 exit

[willow hedge]

the secure boot page on EA's site has some tips based on the brand of motherboard, that might have to guide you

[modest bay]

YOu have to ensure CSM is disabled then enable secure boot

[zenith delta]

I already sign secure boot, but I can't dual boot, W11 keeps overwriting the keys

[delicate cypress]

Probably worth to enable 4G and Rebar since you're in BIOS

Assuming they'll be using it

[keen hill]

What motherboard do you have? That way you can look up how to enable secure boot on it. Hopefully you have a GPT partition, otherwise you'll be converting it from MBR

[modest bay]

TBH Kernal level anticheats still dont work so idk why they even bothered

[chilly basin]

They do work quite well compared to the industry standard anti cheats

[modest bay]

Lets hope you are right

[chrome marten]

wish they gave us access to the firing range after preload

[modest bay]

Or a benchmark tool so we can tweak graphics settings

[chrome marten]

yeah that would've been cool too

I just put everything to Ultra for now

[odd oriole]

whats your specs?

[turbid axle]

It tells me to enable secure boot, enter the BIOS and it is enabled, why does it still tell me the same thing?

[odd oriole]

im on ryzen 5 5600X, 32GB RAM, 3070RTX and it will be installed on M.2

[atomic flint]

Check "System Information" ctrl+f secure boot, does it say on?

[modest bay]

Ryzen 7-9700X, RTX 3060 OC, NVME SSD, and 32GB of DDR5 6000

[late light]

Ok I’m in bios rn and secure boot was on OS, it needs to be on windows EUGI? Correct?

[atomic flint]

Also you need UEFI and TPM 2.0 as well

[atomic flint]

Yup

[late light]

YAY

[odd oriole]

noice so we should both be good to run in high graphics

[chrome marten]

Ryzen 9 7900X, RTX 4070, 32 GB RAM

[atomic flint]

probably not on 144+ though

[modest bay]

I would hope so eslecially with DLSS

[atomic flint]

3060 isn't that good nowadays :p

[chrome marten]

mine will be on M.2 as well

[atomic flint]

oh with DLSS probably yeah

[odd oriole]

not 1440+ but high on 1080 for sure

[modest bay]

I mean tbh the 40 and 50 series werent that much of an improvement a 3060 still punches. Now do I wish I had a 3070 or 80 yeah

[chrome marten]

I play on a generic 1080p60 monitor tho 🥲

[atomic flint]

then you can definitely play on ultra 😭

[modest bay]

I also play on 1080p 144 hz

[odd oriole]

same

[small fractal]

9700x and 6800 ?

[atomic flint]

2k 240hz

[chrome marten]

yep, that's why I cranked it up

[odd oriole]

potenially 1080p60 in ultra?

[small fractal]

man playtest email was bugged saying its live now

[modest bay]

Thats the next move for me

[atomic flint]

hell yeah, 2k is such a step up from 1080 you won't regret it

[chrome marten]

180p would look bad tho

[atomic flint]

as long as you got a good enough pc to run 2k

[odd oriole]

it vwas a typo lol

[chrome marten]

figured lmao

[turbid axle]

From system information it tells me that it is disabled but in the BIOS it is activated, what do I do?

[modest bay]

I do for sure

[chrome marten]

honestly should've spent some of the CPU money on a good monitor

[atomic flint]

What options did you have for secure boot? If it was under "No OS" / "Any OS" or anything like that make sure you select "Windows UEFI" or equivalent

[chrome marten]

there is no reason for me to have a 7900x

[atomic flint]

boot back into the bios and take a look

[chilly basin]

1440 is far better optimized for online gaming anyways

[pastel coyote]

Ryzen7 7800X3D, 64GB DDR5-6000, GTX 1080Ti... inb4 25 FPS ! D:

[atomic flint]

7800x3d the goat

[modest bay]

The 1080TI is undefeated

[odd oriole]

future proofing

[chrome marten]

oooof, 1080TI

[pastel coyote]

haha yup

[chrome marten]

yeah, fair enough

[pastel coyote]

was planning on upgrading GPU soon, but curious how it will handle BF6 for another month or so

[late light]

Dude, doggo is an og, drop an F for Respect

F

[chrome marten]

hm?

[keen hill]

Nah, you can beat it with an RTX 5050

[modest bay]

The 1080 was way ahead of its time but sadly it doesnt have ray tracing cores

[wispy dirge]

The beacon change in the last patch is pretty crazy. Changes a lot of elements of gameplay, matches won’t be the same

[pastel coyote]

[F] DOGGO

GOOD BOI

(the actual dog)

[odd oriole]

thanks for painting a target for me to take tags from

[atomic flint]

[modest bay]

Only took 4 generations

[atomic flint]

4090 goes brrrrrrrr

[high mesa]

@atomic flint Is an amazing tech wizard and I will be seeing you BOYS on the battlefield on Thursday cause of him

[chilly basin]

I expect to see enthusiasts to release some kind of community support for those cards in the future.

[chrome marten]

which one are you planning to get

[keen hill]

It was beaten long before that

[high mesa]

sorry

I meant boys not bots

Damn autocorrect

[pastel coyote]

yer a wizard hdoggo-aaarrry

[atomic flint]

bots gave it more character

[high mesa]

but it seemed so mean

[atomic flint]

hahaha

[chrome marten]

wish the game had bots tho

[high mesa]

MO

[chrome marten]

liked that about 2042

[high mesa]

NO

[atomic flint]

bots are like console players without aim assist

it doesnt even feel good to kill them

theyre just helpless little beings

[chrome marten]

anything for faster matchmaking times

[atomic flint]

[high mesa]

24/7 bot lobbies just for xp grinding

[keen hill]

Speaking of bots, I wonder how they'll be in Portal

[high mesa]

lackluster teammates

[odd oriole]

free xp

[chrome marten]

no they're not

[pastel coyote]

probably 9070XT

[blissful frost]

is it good if i launch ultra graphics on rtx 3060?

[atomic flint]

I saw that you can customize their AI! 👀

[chrome marten]

I got more revives from bots than actual players in 2042 😭

[high mesa]

no

Run medium-high dude

[wispy dirge]

What do you guys think about the Spawn Beacon change ?
I feel it’s going to dramatically decrease campers numbers. But also will decrease the good parachutes spawns from high places

[blissful frost]

too late

[high mesa]

I’m running a 3080 which is above the minimum 3060ti

[lyric aurora]

True xd

[chrome marten]

nicee

[high mesa]

I can run ultra, but I’m not sure if yours will according to their system specs

[blissful frost]

imma play ultra graphics on rtx 300

[chilly basin]

Would be cool to see botted area drone revival.

[blissful frost]

3060

[pastel coyote]

5080 would be a stretch, I'll need a new PSU too

[blissful frost]

on rtx 360

[high mesa]

might take a dip in frames but

[chrome marten]

I hate it when there's a medic right next to me but he REFUSES to revive me

[blissful frost]

gtx 360

[high mesa]

I think it’ll be playable

[chrome marten]

bots revive me even if it meant sacrificing themselves

which is why I like them

[high mesa]

Classic battlefield experience

[chilly basin]

still have my EVGA GTX 760 still works

[keen hill]

Good. They were decent at harder difficulties especially compared to other games but they were still lacking and you couldn't do anything about that really

[pastel coyote]

needs hold space to give up (while flipping the medic the bird)

[chrome marten]

inject the game into my veins now fr

[odd oriole]

so who is wanting to squad up over the beta weekeknd?

[atomic flint]

Yeah, this time around portal seems very extensive, still haven't seen what kind of api is available though

[chrome marten]

portal will be available during open beta?

[high mesa]

No

[atomic flint]

Noo :(

[pastel coyote]

😦

[chrome marten]

F

but also fair enough

[high mesa]

Cmon guy that’s pretty common sense

[atomic flint]

I'm hoping to see firestorm at launch atleast

[high mesa]

that’s like asking for them to drop firestorm in the open beta

[chrome marten]

never hurts to confirm tho

[atomic flint]

but probably not

[chilly basin]

Racing simulator PC has 4070ti strix and the gaming pc 4080 super.

[keen hill]

Honestly if they did a beta weekend for portal, they could really test the game and find out literally all issues

[atomic flint]

you use a seperate pc for your sim?

[high mesa]

that’s what the next phase of labs is for dude

[chilly basin]

Yea

[high mesa]

portal and firestorm

[atomic flint]

Why? 🤣

[chrome marten]

they should just give access to portal from now

[chilly basin]

3 monitors

[blissful frost]

should i run bf6 ultra on gtx 360

[odd oriole]

do it

[atomic flint]

Ye same, I have 3 on the rig and 2 on my main, you can use KVM switches or DP/hdmi switches for it instead :p

[chrome marten]

would have a bunch of good maps and modes by the time the game launches

[high mesa]

you should absolutely

[modest bay]

No balls

[chrome marten]

you should buy a fire extinguisher first prolly

[chilly basin]

I dont wanna sit in a racing seat all the time

[high mesa]

wont even make it past boost

[chilly basin]

Its a simlab rig

[high mesa]

[pastel coyote]

fellow KVM enjoyer! I have a CKL dual monitor KVM, was working great for a number of years but I think my cable is bad or maybe the KVM? one of my monitors will act like it's being unplugged randomly when I switch source to work laptop

[chilly basin]

Replace cable

[atomic flint]

cables can definitely cause issues, especially with KVMs, but you can't really know

get some good high quality cables

[chilly basin]

Especially if you removed it often

[odd oriole]

i have some sim gear, saliek X52 and a logitech G920

[atomic flint]

You can have your 2 monitors on your desktop, and then 3 on the rig, with a kvm or switches between them :p

[pastel coyote]

these cables were bought new, but also running them thru a sit stand desk setup, maybe the flexing has damaged them?

[atomic flint]

are they good quality cables tho? 😄

[chilly basin]

Its also the way its setup my racing sim rig is behind my chair for my computer desk and i walk through there.

[digital flax]

can't see the beta on steam

[pastel coyote]

gold plated monster cables

[atomic flint]

ah fair enough in that case

[pastel coyote]

.... I'm kidding

[modern falcon]

.

[atomic flint]

ugreen cables have never let me down so far

I would definitely recommend

[chilly basin]

Gold plated is best for audio not video

[past storm]

i love racing( car)

[odd oriole]

its on the actual battlefield 6 store page

[chrome marten]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2807960/Battlefield_6/

[pastel coyote]

we need a "battlefield-battlestations" channel so I can post a pic of my crazy setup lol

[atomic flint]

send it somewhere on discord, then right click and copy link and send it here

it won't embed but we can open the link in the browser :p

[devout yarrow]

Do we know how in depth we can go with portal? In terms of making our own game modes and such? Like disabling certain equipment or stuff like that?

[atomic flint]

Not fully yet, but it seems quite extensive

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Noh7TyPaBoE

This includes pretty much all the info we know so far

[devout yarrow]

Ah yup. Im interested in what can disable and fiddle with tbh. Would love to see how a game mode goes that has no sliding or stims tbh

[atomic flint]

There is a couple more tid bits here and there from interviews etc but that's mostly it

[fathom kayak]

hey guys is preload already available? For me it is not yet in my ea library

[odd oriole]

its not a direct to libary thing

[devout yarrow]

Im on xbox and had to search the store for it

[odd oriole]

https://www.ea.com/en/games/battlefield/battlefield-6-open-beta

[turbid axle]

I enabled secure boot and my SSD is now at 100%, what do I do?

[devout yarrow]

It looks like we can record and stream the beta this weekend I think? I havent seen a nda yet

[pine siren]

no nda

[odd oriole]

i have also been told we can including early access as its OPEN

[atomic flint]

Does it just show 100% under task manager? That's just a windows bug and it doesn't cause any issues

[wide swallow]

Guys I need a bit of help

[fathom kayak]

Thanks worked fine

[pine siren]

shoot

[wide swallow]

So I got invited to play battlefield on the 7th

And do I just need to sign in?

No code?

[turbid axle]

If it appears in the task manager and my PC is super slow now

[odd oriole]

was you part of labs?

as labs wasnt a code it was an instant thing for open

[pine siren]

yea it should show up in your library

[cunning swan]

I HAVE THE SECURE Boot error

[wide swallow]

I singed up but never got to play the labs

[odd oriole]

then yes you dont need code as labs sign up

[wide swallow]

Ok so I just log in then load battlefield on the 7th on Xbox

[odd oriole]

make sure your accounts are linked to the EA account you signed up for labs and install beta on the platform of your linked choice

[devout yarrow]

Did you download it?

[wide swallow]

Yes

[pine siren]

sounds like youre all set

[wide swallow]

But for my email is different than my Xbox email

[odd oriole]

no load it today as that was today was, today is pre-load ready to just hit play on thursday, makew sure your xbox account is linked to that ea accaount

[devout yarrow]

Yeah I would assume just start it up on the day then

[sage rune]

can't send gifs?

[devout yarrow]

With the account that got accepted btw

[sage rune]

😔

[odd oriole]

no embed in this chat

[wide swallow]

Ok

[sage rune]

gg

[odd oriole]

[wide swallow]

[wispy dirge]

Basically with the new patch, the gameplay in the Beta will be drastically different from what we've watched on the streams during the reveal...

[devout yarrow]

I've already seen some youtubers jumping in placing and shooting like its cod. Would be nice to make jumping a shooting like that a detrament in portal

[chrome marten]

can someone talk to the devs at dice and ask them to add the weapon range to the preload 😭

[ruby igloo]

in the beta there will be only cairo map?

[chrome marten]

I can see it and open it but there's nothing else I can do except stare at the settings

[odd oriole]

think its the 3 maps the BF event had

[chrome marten]

nope, think there will be 3 maps

[ruby igloo]

wonderful 🙂

[wispy dirge]

3 maps week 1, 4 week 2

[chrome marten]

Siege of Cairo
Liberation Peak
Iberian Offensive
Empire State

[odd oriole]

goodbye brooklyn

[ruby igloo]

but empire seems woow

[odd oriole]

im gonna forget im playing BF and think im playing big team division

[mystic finch]

@odd oriole thank you very much I’ve downloaded it and it’s worked!

Thank you again

[devout yarrow]

Hopefully portal maps are available on console too

[ruby igloo]

it would be cool if people will use VOIP in game because BF for me is a title that i play alone

like SQUAD

[odd oriole]

all platforms, "halo forge"

[dark jay]

hmm got email with the "you have been invited to join the Battlefield Open Beta 2 days early, starting on August 7..." Downloaded the game (steam) but can't find how to actually play it, seem like even though I have the email, I'm still not allowed to play :/ boomer

[odd oriole]

thursday is first day

[peak plank]

"August 7th"

[wispy dirge]

It’s written august 7. What’s the day today

[peak plank]

today is just the pre-install

[thick elm]

Is it august 7th? I was told no math

[crisp steeple]

Smoking on that cod pack

[devout yarrow]

I saw Ravic try and launch a car with explosives but nothing happened sadly D: hopefully that changes when the game comes out

Couldnt even blow up team mates explosives or shoot them

[arctic quiver]

Does anybody know how to get the access code for early beta?… I’ve been signed up for months. and I didn’t receive an email or anything.

Not sure if this is the right channel to ask in, if it’s not, my apologies.

[odd oriole]

you are good as in it was if in labs before 31 july you got early access

[wispy dirge]

The game is already greatly different from the Reveal that happened just 5 days ago...
They have a few weeks to make other fixes.

[devout yarrow]

Oh thats good. Wonder how old the builds are then

[arctic quiver]

Yeah I’ve been in labs for months, but I checked my email, and nothing… I’ve been working nonstop the last couple weeks, so didn’t even get to watch streamers.

Just trying to figure out who to contact to get a code..

[wispy dirge]

They just released new patch notes with a loooot of changes. All the videos online are a bit non-relevent now

[odd oriole]

thats what im saying you dont, labs was a given no code needed because they want to flood the servers

[arctic quiver]

Really would like to play early beta. Been playing BF since 1942 back in 2002 on the PC.

[devout yarrow]

Where can we see the patch notes? =0

[odd oriole]

#bf6-beta-info message

If you signed up for Battlefield Labs before July 31, you don’t need a code. Just log in with the EA Account you registered with Battlefield Labs. @arctic quiver

all in that info channel

[odd oriole]

was it always support had LMG in BF6 because LMG and defibs sound off

or was that one of the changes?

[wispy dirge]

Supports gets defib now. Was in assault before

[keen pike]

Javelin Anti-Cheat? That seems new.

[odd oriole]

i know it was but i meant in 6 specifically

[glass furnace]

what is phantom xp boost set? is it permanent or limited time booster ?

[odd oriole]

thought assualty on the thursday big content creator evening had defibs

[wispy dirge]

No defibs on assault.
They had an adrenaline shot that gave health, but that won’t give health back anymore

[odd oriole]

well time to learn to replay BF then

again

[wispy dirge]

Everyone can rescue dead players if that’s your question. But support can raise faster thanks to the defib

[devout yarrow]

I can't wait to defib people. I do miss the days of doing it on BF4 and the xbox recording you doing it automatically. Shame games dont do that anymore

[thick elm]

anyone else stuck on the 'Verify your identity' pop up when launched in steam? (yes I know we can't play just curious

[keen pike]

Yeah but you can't drag with defib, so at times it feels normal rez is better

[odd oriole]

see i know thats new and support ressing faster and dragging faster makes sense

[keen pike]

At least that was my feeling with it

[odd oriole]

the fact a defib kill was part of the china rising challenge to unlock the L85A2

[wispy dirge]

On the event people were heavily complaining that there was very few people using defib or rez, maybe they will adress that somehow in future patches

[devout yarrow]

Was it? That was a long time ago so I don't remember the challanges. BUT I do remember the game stuttering when defibing people cause of the xbox then recording what happened lol

[odd oriole]

yup was like needed 5 assualt badges, 3 40mm nade kills in one match and a defib kill in the same match

[devout yarrow]

Well makes sense. A lot of the people were cod people right?

[keen pike]

I really hope they expand the Signature Weapon thing. Cause I want to be an up close and sneaky recon at times and use my SMG. LIke maybe 2 each. I can easily see Assault have AR and Shotguns. Recon Snipers and SMGs. IDK exactly what the secondaries for Engineer and Support would be. Maybe also SMGs for Support cause if you are running around rezing people, you might want something more...faster than an LMG lol

[devout yarrow]

Ah yup. From what I saw it looked like you didn't need to charge them to get a kill at least during the stream. MerkMusik or how ever you spell his name got I think 2 defib kills with no charge up time for it so hopefully that changes

[gloomy kettle]

Why can I not find battlefield 6 to preload it? I was invited cause I’m in labs

[devout yarrow]

Where are you looking? and what platform?

[valid mason]

If you want it on steam, go to the store and search for BF6

[gloomy kettle]

Thank you thought it was separate from bf6

[jolly tide]

It's gonna be like per hour boosters. 1 hour, 12 hours and the 1day boosters. Just like in BF4/BF1. That's my guess

[keen pike]

Wasn't there one game where they had Assault, Medic, Recon, Engineer Support? Then they fused Assualt and Medic. Now it looks like upcoming Medic/Support are fused. Since the Ammo and Health box are one thing now.

[scarlet slate]

It doesn‘t let me on PS5

Xbox and EGS lets me download, but not PlayStation

[devout yarrow]

your account linked to ps5?

[scarlet slate]

I think so, i mean i participated in BF Labs

with the same account

[ruby igloo]

for me i closed and reopen EA APP on pc and now shows me the pre-load of beta

[odd oriole]

it may be same account but is it actually linked to your PS account

[keen pike]

Was it shared anywhere that Secure Boot is needed for the game?

[odd oriole]

OG BF2

[scarlet slate]

let me check

[odd oriole]

Open Fire assignment, which requires owning the China Rising DLC. The assignment involves getting three assault rifle ribbons, and in a single round, a kill with a pistol, a 40mm grenade, and the defibrillator. that was to unlock the L85A2

[thick elm]

yeah, if you have the email 2fa on your account then the steam version of bf6 open beta is not working - cool

[devout yarrow]

Thats a lot

[ruby igloo]

i will download in few days, 36GB of beta

[odd oriole]

was hard but i did it on the map that had the caves in the massive cliff pillar things

[gloomy kettle]

So I’m looking and there is beta skins do you thing it would be a level thing or just play?

[scarlet slate]

oh, no it isn‘t for some reason. Also it is linked to a weird twitch acc named „JhrX88sBBZbpRV5“

Let me link it to PSN and then we look

[odd oriole]

both, some are lvl based some or in game action based

[devout yarrow]

I remember unlocking that plane you could throw. Loved getting kills with that. Was great for those hard to reach players or people camping xD

[odd oriole]

wsa it the UCAV?

[devout yarrow]

SUAV, Ucav was the mortor one

[odd oriole]

ah ok

[keen pike]

Huh, read the article that was just posted. You earn full XP progression in this mode. What does that mean? Things will carry over into the launch of the game?
#direct-communication message

[odd oriole]

yes

[scarlet slate]

It‘s linked to my brother‘s old acc, i will ask him to remove it and then we check :)

[keen pike]

Is that the plane drone gadget where you needed jet ribbons to unlock in BF4? I hope they don't have that kind of stuff in 6. Let's say that some people, me, are not meant to fly lol

[devout yarrow]

might be better off to just use their account

Incase removing and changing stuff removes your access

[daring burrow]

If I’ve already redeemed my early access code, will I automatically get early access on the 7th just by downloading the BF6 beta client from the PlayStation Store? Or is there anything else I need to do to make sure I’m all set?

[devout yarrow]

Going to write these down. I want to unlock everything

[scarlet slate]

Oh, i mean i‘ve played Labs with my correct account and honestly idk. On the PS Store it says i need PS+, but a friend of mine who has PS+, says he also can‘t

[daring burrow]

It’s linked up! Thanks for the response!

[odd oriole]

lets ramp up security by making sure secure boot is on...2FA nah thats a virus block

[keen pike]

They need to make a new BF6 channel lol. Cause this is supposed to be for the Portal mode. But we have taken it over for just General/Beta BF6 talk lol

[odd oriole]

you mean #battlefield-6

[wide swallow]

Ok so I just created a new Xbox account that was associated with one I got the email to play on the 7th

[devout yarrow]

Ok I will admit. didn't see that there. My bad

[grave veldt]

Friday saturday nights guys! 🔥

[odd oriole]

nah its cool ive been sat in this channel all day helkping those who came here first rather then there

[grave veldt]

Can we use kbm on ps5 in bf6? Any confirmed information?

[keen pike]

weird, Don't see that channel.

[devout yarrow]

No idea why its in Suggested and not in the BF6 section

[odd oriole]

im doing thurs-sunday

[atomic flint]

Scroll to the top, Go into Channels -> Browse Channels -> select it

[pliant cedar]

Trying to play battlefield and my mom wants me to throw trash🫩

[digital hawk]

I acc love the change for the deploy beacon

10/10

[odd oriole]

if PS supports it, i know xbox does

[keen pike]

Weid, ok moving over to the normal general BF6 channel lol

[devout yarrow]

So what are people planning on doing with portal here? That angled highway with stuff falling down it was interesting

[odd oriole]

yup was like watching halo garbage chute mode

im thinking if possible custom carrier assualt or mini missions

[devout yarrow]

Didn't even think of mini missions. Like arma missions?

[odd oriole]

yeah, patrol missions or clear a village

that sort of thing like military episodes or something

[devout yarrow]

I didn't even think of that. That would be cool to do

[odd oriole]

so seeing as think it was lvl 5 recon can call in a UAV make it a feature for a mission

i do miss commander so if thats supported which i doubt but would love to see, BF RTS

[devout yarrow]

Oh interesting. You can hide your gamertag. There is a creator modes for Streamer and Anonymous

[atomic flint]

Well they did make a top-down shooter in portal, so that might be possible 😄

[pastel lintel]

Hello where can i find bf6 so i can prelaod it i got the email and everything

shame can't pin this comment

[odd oriole]

im sorry, ill keep on it like i have all day

helps keep portal chat

[devout yarrow]

No need to be sorry. Was just saying would make it easier for ya :p

[atomic flint]

I'm more interested in what's going on on the right side of your desk 👀

[pastel lintel]

thank you my guy

[atomic flint]

what's that pcb?

[pastel coyote]

pcb?

[atomic flint]

not sure what that is, under your laptop

😄

[pastel coyote]

giant stack of SSDs

[jolly tide]

Do i really have to enable my Secure-Boot?

[odd oriole]

yes

[atomic flint]

Yes, there's no real reason not to either

[atomic flint]

Ohh 😭

[devout yarrow]

I'm curious how the godot stuff will transfer over to battlefield tbh.

Or even how it works

[atomic flint]

godot is basically just used as the editor itself

[devout yarrow]

looks like an interesting feat on its on really

[atomic flint]

they'll likely give us some sort of sdk or a godot plugin that will be able to communicate with the frostbite engine and "translate" whatever you create in godot to something that will work in frostbite

[quiet star]

I'm not seeing any upscaling options in the open beta client... I know there were in labs

[atomic flint]

goes to show how good the architecture of the godot editor is really 😄

[devout yarrow]

Mmmm, I'm going to have to update mine and learn the controls then.

[jolly tide]

Jsut wondering what does it do? since i'm not a a computer geek, and it's disable by default for some reason.

[odd oriole]

security

[vital blaze]

"Requiring Secure Boot provides us with features that we can leverage against cheats that attempt to infiltrate during the Windows boot process. It also lets the Battlefield Positive Play team use its own features and related dependent security features like TPM to combat other forms of cheating."

[odd oriole]

giving hackers atasty of their own medicine

[jolly tide]

i see

[atomic flint]

Couple things here:

1. Secure boot & TPM 2.0 are both required on to install windows 11 (there are ways to bypass this, but without any workarounds they are required), so it's not something that a lot of people have off
2. Secure boot is essentially a security feature that will make it so when your pc is booting up, only trusted drivers/apps can run, this helps with anticheat as a lot of cheats utilize the boot up process to run services/drivers they utilize for.. well, cheating

Of course this doesn't mean that secure boot on == no cheats, far from it, but it's just a little bit of extra checks

[devout yarrow]

This is why I prefer to game on console tbh. Less faf more play

[atomic flint]

And less frames 😂

[wispy dirge]

Less cheats, less FPS, but more security !

[vital blaze]

I wish instead of turning off crossplay that they could do match making off of input type so it puts all controller players together

[devout yarrow]

I mean thats fine. I grew up with gameboy and SNES so xD

[dreamy field]

Damn to think I started this secure boot talk last night before getting off discord 😅😅

I’m still trying to figure out how to turn mine on

😂

[devout yarrow]

pretty sure you do it in the pc bios right?

[pastel coyote]

yes

[vast galleon]

Bios

[vital blaze]

Have to go to your bios

[devout yarrow]

When you turn your pc on press delete till you get into the bios

[dreamy field]

Yeah, you do it in a PC bios but mine set up different and I have no clue what menu to go under

[swift elbow]

LET US PLAYYYYYYY

[dreamy field]

I’m not familiar with how my bios menus are

[vast galleon]

Send a pic of your bios

[dreamy field]

Ima at work rn. But I get off in 30

[swift elbow]

If you know what mobo you got just youtube it mate. It's very simple to do

[vast galleon]

Alright just @ me when you send it

[devout yarrow]

this too

[dreamy field]

Bet

[vast galleon]
