portal

[ember meteor]

True

Pre-ordered it tho

[versed talon]

Would be cool. But you can just host one game mode, Just like in 2042

[lyric aurora]

Have we found out if we can play with a full team of 30 friends yet?

[abstract sedge]

Do you guys know how the scripting part will work?

We will be able to use in house assets or we can bring our own?

[ocean gale]

Is portal gonna feature other battlefield titles like it did in 2042?

[supple basin]

i had the same question, would be nice to have some WW2 weapons and vehicles

[grave moon]

What hour is the game gonna release at?

[surreal root]

Any news on what will change with the company purchase?

[trail badger]

Nothing because the acquisition doesn't close until 2027

[paper cape]

When is BR releasing

[dawn plinth]

probably on season 1

[ancient yarrow]

we can recreate the titan mode on portal?

[void needle]

It would be like how it is in 2042, but this time you can script using blocks and text and will also have much more "blocks"

[void needle]

in house

[tulip marlin]

Im not sure if they officially confirmed it or not but I don't see why it wouldn't. That was initially the whole reason for having portal. To have a "portal" to go back and play past and present battlefields alike.

I assume this is adjusted for my time zone?

I've seen those pop up.

[fossil raft]

Correct

[grave moon]

Thanks man, appreciate it

Utter Garbage

[lyric aurora]

I just read we are getting server browser back in portal only. Is this true????????

[rugged sandal]

what time does bf6 unlock on friday?

[dreamy sphinx]

17 CEST

[coarse ember]

8am pacific

[void imp]

... Guess I'm gonna be working from home on the Friyay... Have me a cuppa tea and start the fun.

[vapid brook]

yes

[small rock]

where is the bf 6 chat?

it disappeared for me

[deft lintel]

If you want to host more than 1 Portal, I can host it for you, msg me

[wooden dove]

Will we be able to tweak the amount of Vehicles in a match for Portal like we can in 2042?

I am assuming Yes but if so it leads to my bigger question: Can we add Jets to Portal Matches on the Maps that don't have them normally?

[inland ferry]

Watch instead of everyone going to multiplayer, everyone jumps to portal first

I tried the afk games server in 2042 for xp on pc and my game crashed xd

[wooden dove]

Oh I don't doubt it. Many will try to make XP Farming servers but luckily they all have to become Verified by DICE or EA first now

[inland ferry]

Gg

[wooden dove]

So I do believe that will solve the server problem

[inland ferry]

Nice I wasnt planning to xp farm but curious on what people would be creating on the servers as games for others to join in and enjoy as well.

Just like halo forge

[wooden dove]

Modes I make will just be Conquest but with the Highest Difficulty Bots and fastest vehicle respawns

Should be able to have those verified for XP

[inland ferry]

Sounds Interesting

Was hoping the game.devs would let us create our own maps with modes on portal

[wooden dove]

Made them for 2042 as well but they only get "Moderate XP"

Should be Full since the only things I am doing are enabling the Advanced Bots and making the Vehicles respawn faster. Nothing else is changed.

[inland ferry]

I see.

I'll be trying out the multiplayer first with friends then portal later.

[wooden dove]

Will do Campaign first while they get server stability straightened out.

Then try the Maps that were not in the Beta.

[oak hawk]

3 MORE FUCK DAYS BOYS AND GALS 3 MORE TOOK OFF WORK FOR THIS MOMENT!!!!

[minor ibex]

Imagine trying to fly a jet on Empire State

[jade quarry]

[radiant harbor]

I was going to get the Phantom Edition but wanted to save some dollars and thus will grind for content.

[drifting ivy]

Hold hold....the devs are trying to say that open weapons is the way to go in BF6? Nah my guy it only appears like that because you stacked the deck during the beta to make it appear like it was more popular. For one you shoved the closed weapons Playlist off screen so we had to scroll to find. Secondly you made open weapons conquest the default setting and then didn't bother to label it as open weapons conquest. They obviously forgot that open weapons classes is one of the main things that killed 2042. And these sneaky underhanded tactics aren't the way to garner goodwill.

[cloud fable]

Open weaps sells skins, that's the reason they skewed the data and beta choices...... But I'm still salty about 2042. They'll bin off closed to portal after launch, and it won't even be an option in BF7. Battlefield has always been classic weaps, I'm not counting 2042 as a battlefield game, that went in the bin with hardline

[sturdy lichen]

They’ll be enough players to fill open and closed servers . The challenge will be post launch content and having consistency with updates especially with the br

Without proper updates the br will get stale within a few weeks

[kind dove]

Totally this. Everyone was commenting that on X.

Even a guy predicted they’d say that during the beta.

[uncut moth]

They also said they reworked the home page. Maybe it will be "easier" to chose between open and close.

[lyric aurora]

So even if I’m not online my server will be up and running correct?

[past forum]

@lyric aurora that's most likely an option yes, but probably not by default—similar to 2042.

[echo bone]

when will be blank slate available? can we lets say add water and etc in portal? there were some maps in bf3 and bf2 that were pretty good and I want to create them

I also heard that we wont be able to remove buildings?

[uncut moth]

It's not 100% we can create maps. For now they just said we can modify existing ones but we all hope we can create it from scratch to be sûre any map of older titles can be here, and new maps too !

[echo bone]

yeah I hope that they will let us create from scratch

[light root]

I think they mentioned at some point we will get that

And i more than exited if thats true

[uncut moth]

Yes they said we can do it but they never showed us so can't trust.

[light root]

At launch we can work on existing maps but in future we will be able to build a map from the ground up but not 100% sure if its true

And you can make a mini maps in an existing map like the dust 2 map for example

[warm barn]

I wish those who bought the game had started a week early like every other game. We would be playing it now :/

[hearty ginkgo]

For now it's gonna be like Halo Forge. They are gonna try and see if we can modify the terrain but there are no promises. We also get a flat blank map too so that will help with the thermometer.

3.0?

[opaque cairn]

[tranquil sleet]

perhaps a stupid question, but what is preventing people from making 1 corridor with a player spawn at the beginning and infinite enemy spawning at the other end, this so people will level weapons and class items really fast?
As i saw that portal maps will also give xp so I assume people will use this to make a super fast and easy way to gain access to all weapons and attachments?

[barren leaf]

im pretty sure XP progression is given after the gamemode is reviewed

at least from what i heard

[terse bay]

Xp farms will likely have reduced xp rates

[barren leaf]

or none

[tranquil sleet]

Well the old portal in 2042 was already abused to level things up quickly (which is fine as for some people its really hard getting kills in normal games if they only play after work for a hour or 2). But if wat i described is indeed possible the entire thing to get weapons unlocked should be removed as there is no point in playing the hard way.
Xp farms might get less xp but if you kill more per min it will still even out no?

it won't matter how many kills you get. you will simply get x points for y time.

[terse bay]

Seems like a ton of people are trying to do something with that command. Maybe there's an exploit with it

[jade quarry]

🤣

I see a lot of attempts at this.

[inner pulsar]

Some 14 year olds are going crazy with the commands today.

[glossy basin]

I belive the server/game mode has to be verified before it is eligible for XP.

[teal wedge]

drop single pls

[lavish light]

k. I swore I wouldn'

haha I swore I would not buy BF6

the only thing I can equate this feeling of having actually bought it now.... is to something that starts with a C-O and ends with a CAIN

[pearl rune]

the portal is open in BF6 at now

bc i buy the game before 1month

[mellow chasm]

Where?

[pearl rune]

i just ask if i can play portal at now in BF6

[mellow chasm]

Ah, you forgot "?". It sounded like statement.

No, you can't access game yet.

Unless you have a disc.

[pearl rune]

ooh ok ty ❤️

[fathom anvil]

Do we have a distinguishing title for Portal in BF6 yet? I feel like if we start using Portal 2 it'll confuse everyone 😆

[tardy kayak]

I hope we can edit how spawn works, communications and squad works, see if it can made closer to how BF2 was

[chrome marten]

BF studios, please PLEASE give us good documentation for portal, I beg thee

[jade quarry]

BF6 Portal? BF Portal 2.0?

[tribal geode]

Maybe Portal 6? Like in Portal 2042 was a paper tiger?

[jade quarry]

Portal V2?

[fathom anvil]

Portal 2.0 has a nice ring to it

[chrome marten]

Portal 2.0 seems the best

[chrome marten]

agreed

[tardy kayak]

Portal 2.0 seems like it

[fiery marlin]

Sorry if this is asked a lot but when will the game be out for normal EA Play subscriptions?

[fathom anvil]

@jade quarry I will extend credit to you here, you've coined it.

[jade quarry]

^^

[tribal geode]

10.10. 17:00 CEST AFAIK

[fiery marlin]

That’s for EA play PRO

[tribal geode]

Will the script editor of Portal 2.0 be in JS or C#?

[jade quarry]

we don't know yet for certain.

but I'd guess JavaScript.

[solar cobalt]

I thought it would be in Godots script? or is that only for the map editing?

[jade quarry]

I really would like Python or GDScript.

[jade quarry]

from what I've heard Godot is only for spatial editing.

[tribal geode]

That would make sense. Godot has AFAIK JS or C#, but the C# version is lagging behind

[jade quarry]

but we have to wait for release.

[solar cobalt]

it shouldn't matter too much though right? no matter what language we have to use for scripting it will be calling built in functions/classes anyways right? so it's mostly syntax that matters

[tribal geode]

That's unfortunate. I got some experience in Godot

[tribal geode]

But what if you need some variables for a custom game state etc

[jade quarry]

the way I see it is that the scripting part will be done on the Portal web application.

in two ways, either block-based or text-based. the text-based scripting is the new thing.

[tribal geode]

I hope not with that block stuff of portal 1.0. That was limited to say the least

[jade quarry]

there will be both options.

[solar cobalt]

yeah there will be some ofc, but we won't be making our own movement code, we will just use whatever class they have for NPCs/AI soldiers

[jade quarry]

for beginners and experienced users.

[tribal geode]

It would be nice if DICE would not be so secretive about it and give a real insight before the release

[jade quarry]

it's three days away anyway.

we managed to wait for 5 years.

three days is nothing.

[tribal geode]

Three days too long

[jade quarry]

but yeah, I expected a type of deep dive trailer about it too.

at least we will get firsthand documentation and guides.

[tribal geode]

Releasing information earlier would have made the wait easier and I would not have to decide what to do on 10th

[solar cobalt]

they only showed the crazy maps and some checkpoints for races (which is already a huge thing to add), but nothing about how it works.
I guess 99% of players will never even try to make anything though, so no one would care about the trailer at all

[jade quarry]

it's maybe planned for post launch.

I don't know.

[tribal geode]

You are right, but this is free labor for DICE. It should be worth something for them

If BF6 goes stale as people played longer, a "modding community " can make things fresh for the playerbase

[jade quarry]

agreed.

[chrome marten]

how are you so sure?

[jade quarry]

they said it.

let me find where...

[chrome marten]

sure haha

[chrome marten]

any luck?

[glad mountain]

Will bf6 have flight stick support ...havent had it since bf2!

[jade quarry]

https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/news/how-battlefield-6-s-portal-lets-you-build-your-own-war

I can't post screenshots here.

last result if you search for spatial editor on the page.

[dawn plinth]

sounds to be JS (based on some rev. eng)

But let's see if their Spatial Editor (aka Godot) will allow us to inject GDScript or GDNative scripts to run inside the map

[zinc holly]

@glad mountain if you mean joystick then yes

[tame wyvern]

Can we play today? 🥲

[echo bone]

whats the best map you would like to have in bf6 from previous battlefields?

[wispy dirge]

Guys does anyone know if our settings from the beta carry over to the real game ? I spent quite some time tweaking them...

[glad mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/черный-ящик-black-box-отключаю-ап-ручное-управление-airbus-a320-gif-1289308735535003337

i dont mean an xbox controller, i mean a flight stick like a 3dpro

[zinc holly]

Yes, that will work i also got logitech extreme 3d pro

[radiant harbor]

Pre-loaded and ready to commit explosive destruction on the Battlefield. 😎

[round flower]

Matchmaking players should populate "standard rule" Portal servers.

[oak valley]

my god i cant wait

[wispy dirge]

Can’t be ready since you didn’t install the last update

[dawn plinth]

Operation Outbreak
Operation Whiteout
Operation Metro (BF3 or BF4 version)
Operation Locker
Lost Island
Silk Road
Hammerhead
Operation Underground
Fort De Vaux

I'm not sure if you're mentioning to be from the community

From BF Studios, I would only expect Locker

[wispy dirge]

You also need to take into account history accuracy
You can’t play Fort de Vaux in BF6 for example

[dawn plinth]

Why not if the community can just build the map?

[wispy dirge]

Of course

[dawn plinth]

That's why I said in the message below the map list

if is from the community, I would love to play these maps

if it's from BF Studios, I only want Locker

[lyric aurora]

That would be dope!!! Just modern shit!!!!

[wispy dirge]

The problem is that you would need to also heavily tweak the game settings and customize the classes etc...

[dawn plinth]

what do u mean?

I want modern soldiers in this map, just it

[wispy dirge]

The problems are the gameplay changes BF6 brings

It would probably destory the little things you liked about such maps, since they were created with other games in mind

[dawn plinth]

I just like the format

since I'm an infantry only guy

[wispy dirge]

Quick examples, if you use ladders in Fort de Vaux it would completely change the dynamics of the matches, and make the map really not enjoyable anymore

There would probably be more than 100 things to tweak to get a good feeling on these kind of maps

[dawn plinth]

Isn't the point of creating maps?

Testing until it's good

[wispy dirge]

Yeah but then you don’t recreate Fort de Vaux, you would need to tweak so many things that it wouldn’t be the same map anymore

[dawn plinth]

off course it will

The same way, Op. Locker can't be like it is in BF4

It would require some effort to adapt to Battlefield 6

I never mentioned to be exactly the same

Cuz, as you said, the map was built for other game

[radiant harbor]

Sooo, campaign first or multiplayer? I am going Campaign first.

[ember meteor]

Campaign

[fleet ledge]

Anyone know if we can access the gadot editor before the game comes out or can we only start building after release?

[late umbra]

I’m curious about this as well, may have a lot of Forgers coming over. I would definitely love to get a jump on the tools but I can wait… haha

[strong gale]

I am sure some folks have access but not the general public

[oak hawk]

dear dice please release the game tomorrow \

[jade quarry]

what the channel name says. 👀

I will live there.

for the rest of this year.

[radiant harbor]

I don’t see General For BF6 unless I missed something

[jade quarry]

have you checked for hidden channels?

"Channels & Roles"

#battlefield-6 it's here.

[radiant harbor]

Thanks for that. I must have forgot to add the channel. Moving there now.

[jade quarry]

I didn't necessarily mean this that way though. ^^

[balmy storm]

I can't waaaaaaiiiiiiittttttt!

[main solar]

shadow drop this shiiiiiiit

[primal hedge]

Idlike this

[iron solar]

any specific date for the battle royal?

[brazen oriole]

guys they said they are gonna give a day one patch is it after release?

[jade quarry]

do you guys all have the #battlefield-6 channel hidden?

why are so many people coming to the Portal channel for general BF6 chat?

[humble pilot]

Unfortunately portal channel was moved to bf6 category and the other channels are hidden for those being here before the BF6 category existed. You have to actively check the channel and role settings and make it visible.

[jade quarry]

I see.

[spiral oasis]

I'm gonna sound really stupid here so please be patient. How do I use portal when BF6 launches on Friday ?

[swift crag]

it will be one of the game modes...? did you ever play 2042?

[ornate loom]

Gotta click the #battlefield-6 link and click Add to Channel List top right, it's not default visible

[jade quarry]

got to channels & roles.

[spiral oasis]

no i didnt BF4 was last dive into BF

[jade quarry]

check tick the box where the Battlefield 6 channel category is.

[humble pilot]

There's a website portal.battlefield.com where you sign in with your ear account and build "experiences"

I guess the domain will be switched or extended at around launch

[swift crag]

ahh, ok, so, it's just another game mode basically. this one is going to have a tool like halo forge though, where you can build maps with arbitrarily placed objects

in 2042, it was just rules and you pick a map

[spiral oasis]

it sounds amazing

Beaches of Dunkirk anyone 😛

[swift crag]

in 2042, they had el alamein and some other maps from 1942

via portal, i mean

[spiral oasis]

hopefully we'll get some good servers/maps that aren't eventually swamped by bots and aim assist monkeys 😛

[swift crag]

anyone can "host" a portal server, so you can host your own too

[spiral oasis]

nice

[swift crag]

i'm sure we'll get some interesting portal maps/modes shortly after launch. FNB often did fun portal experiences

recently there was an all-eras gun game where you start with 1942, and progress through each "era" all the way to 2042

35 weapons in total

[jade quarry]

that was a fun mode, yeah.

[deep urchin]

Can someone explain the diff between the EA app version and Steam version of Battlefield 6 someone said to me that the EA app bf6 got better performance than the steam version is this true ?

[scarlet flare]

@deep urchin an real easy explanation would be you just use one program to start the game while on steam you must start 2 steam and ea app. Also if steam has problems with their servers it will affect connection or performance

[deep urchin]

So there are no better performance on the EA app version than the Steam version of the game if the steam servers are fine ?

[scarlet flare]

@deep urchin It is really just an easy explanation for more detail i would recomment watching a Video on Performance or look up Infos about games running on 2 Apps. As long as Steam runs fine should be not affected

But just yesterday steam had Server problems

And it killed for Example many rockstar Servers

[deep urchin]

Thanks for the response 🫡

[scarlet flare]

@deep urchin 🫡

[ember meteor]

WE HAVE 2 MORE DAYS TILL RELEASE

[sour oracle]

Hey guys I was wondering if the 10% off with EA play does take effect on Steam?

Also I should be able to have the 10% off on digital purchases like the battle pass no?

[agile bolt]

Why the hell can use AR on Support who can now heal, revive, suppy and smoke

its beyond broken

Support is now 3 classes merged into one

you can easy solo with it you have everything you need

infine ammo, heal and smokes

[jade quarry]

2 not 3.

medic (heals) + support (ammo)

[agile bolt]

if you use AR you pretty much 3 classes

you can have the best weapons with infinite ammo

[jade quarry]

every class can use ARs.

[agile bolt]

no

only in open system

that is beyond broken

at least in close sysem you not gonna be able to AR Support

but he still strong

more than others

[jade quarry]

I'm talking about the open weapons modes.

[agile bolt]

I can bet you Support with AR will be the most played class

they really should give the healing to assault or just make a 5th class

[jade quarry]

or they could just split the support crate into two, ammo and medpack.

[agile bolt]

you mean to choose?

from a perk?

thats like a sub class if they that lazy they can do that too

[jade quarry]

the support's crate currently resupplies ammo and heals at the same time AFAIK.

they could separate that and you just have to choose between heals or ammo.

[agile bolt]

it shoot have one perk with ammo other one with heal

but never both

[jade quarry]

no perks, man.

[agile bolt]

because its just too op especailly for yourself

[jade quarry]

just two different crates for two different purposes.

[agile bolt]

this is like BF2042 Falck where you have healing + ammo create

the most used character

because it give you everything

and you could solo with it

[agile bolt]

but you should not be able to have both at same time

[jade quarry]

that is exactly what I'm saying, man...

[agile bolt]

yeah but in bf6 the supply is not a gadget

its a perk

ability

[jade quarry]

it is a gadget.

[agile bolt]

thats why I say have 2 perks and you can choose ammo or heal

[jade quarry]

it's the crate that is doing the supplying.

this is the Portal channel BTW.

#battlefield-6

check channels & roles for hidden channels.

[agile bolt]

ohh

thats why I could not find the main one

thx

[jade quarry]

make sure to tick the box for the whole channel category.

[orchid breach]

hi

[lyric aurora]

I caved… I’ve said no pre orders since 2042 fucked me… after playing the beta, I do believe that with the portal server browser, we can make it how we want. I hope that’s real… forgive me I pre ordered…

[lone cloud]

Is hardcore 60 starting health like bf4 or that bs 200% damage?

[jade quarry]

I assume you mean official Hardcore presets.

in BF6?

[lone cloud]

yes

[jade quarry]

we don't know that yet.

but whatever it is.

the community can just change that in a matter of minutes anyways.

we don't have to solely rely on official presets.

you can do both via the settings menus in Portal.

[jade quarry]

oh, and by the way: go to channels & roles and tick the box next to the Battlefield 6 channel category. the general BF6 chat is #battlefield-6.

[weak token]

[tired gulch]

Hi everyone

[lyric aurora]

[storm swan]

[rich wraith]

If it doesnt show it in your cart I would say no. Check with EA customer support honestly. I'm just using some logic.

[rich wraith]

I'm exited for using mechanics from unique or bespoke modes like BR to enhance standard conquest play.

For example using the armor plates and other BR only systems to then construct some real depth into a hardcore server involving ttk and universal on map pickups

If I can get the plate equip and buff to work with Godot to activate automatically like the on map pickups for special weapons. Plate stations could be built to compensate spawn camping in hardcore large scale maps

Might be fun to put it on a cool down and ads some TTK depth to a classic hardcore server

Im interested to see if the Godot editor allows these more complex ideas to come to fruition

Or if secondary objective to add tickets to the winning team could be used to make for different victory conditions and surprise comebacks. More complex multi stage goals unlike the "control all the points death timer" that DICE has discussed and shown in some game modes.

Adding the "quests" and a pve element to 64p conquest like there being neutral troops at the begining of the match

Im frothing at the mouth with the possibilities of a traditional gamedev interface

[devout solstice]

I wish we can do the NZ trick for this game

[wraith narwhal]

[ember meteor]

I would like zombies to be on the br map

Would be interesting if everyone map wide tries to survive a timer as the map closes and people get infected

[rich wraith]

Not a bad idea, perhaps quickly rigged with the knife fight only mechanics it could be set up. Infection dice roll rules for getting hit too many times would be interesting. PvPvE

Hopefully theres a common skin that you can force transform people to for full Source engine level shenanigans

[ember meteor]

True

[kind dove]

Honestly 2042 should just uncap xp completely now it’s bf6’s turn.

[near torrent]

When will BF6 Portal be up ? As of now its still 2042

[woven apex]

I have a wild guess... 10/10 ?

[jade quarry]

I like the ideas people are coming up with for Portal 2.0 here. :)

there are a lot of cool and knowledgeable people over there.

let's grow this community even more with Battlefield 6. :)

midnight release on console is dead because gaming is obsessed with concurrent steam players now

so we all gotta release same time

Midnight release is dead because it doesn't make sense anymore.

[lavish jungle]

4pm UK

[lavish jungle]

why not?

And I don’t even go back to work til Monday

[sweet sable]

I wish I could get twitch drops for bf6

finding out that some random twitch account was somehow linked to my EA is so tragic, support also didn't answer only closing my ticket after 2 months 🙁

[vague forge]

Do I get anything for being bf labs cause I only got access for the beta just curious

[orchid locust]

I don't know but if we do get anything I wouldn't imagine it would be more than a calling card or charm or something

[vague forge]

Does anyone actually know the % of labs people that actually got to play besides the beta

[alpine oyster]

My psn account is from 2010. I have no idea if I'll ever recover my ea account linked there

[obsidian tide]

no

[lyric cradle]

That's wack, but the beta was worth the time nonetheless

[stuck flicker]

guys are they gonna add co-op like the 2042

where u can unlock weapons

and attachment

[viscid bluff]

That’s not at all why, it’s so everyone launches at the same time….

[lethal heron]

Yo can BF6 launch today plz?

Suprise early launch?

[jade quarry]

in case you guys can't find the general BF6 chat -> #battlefield-6

and check your channel settings for this server.

"Channels & Roles"

[sweet sable]

Would already be great if support would atleast take the time to help a situation like mine

[ancient summit]

Is it possible to play privately with bots on the portal?

[lavish jungle]

is it true IGN posted the campaign review by accident💀

[lyric aurora]

I hope tomorrow isn't a disaster launch day. I actually would like to play it for likely the entire day

[vague forge]

So how many hours till launch where I am it’s the 10th

[lyric aurora]

I've done the pre-load too. It's crazy how the HD packs are almost as large as the game itself. I am expecting insane detail

[modern shadow]

!!

[winter maple]

Secure boot…

Guess they don’t want my money then…

[undone inlet]

Anyone looking for a team to play BF6 with?

[alpine oyster]

I heard cod doing the same

[alpine oyster]

I'm down. Hmu

[winter maple]

Yeah and I’m not buying that game either lol

[ancient summit]

who cares

[alpine oyster]

Cheaters lol

[winter maple]

It doesn’t seem to help with cheating that much

It just prevents people who don’t have secure boot in their bios from buying the game

[alpine oyster]

Secure boot cost me a few hrs on beta launch cuz I barely knew what I was doing but got it sorted out

[winter maple]

It’s not that I have to figure it out, it’s the fact that I and many others quite literally don’t have it

I can play every game ever perfectly with high graphics if I wanted, but now all the sudden I can’t play battlefield anymore

[alpine oyster]

I get it. I thought I was screwed too. They'll lose ppl on PS4 and Xbox s too

[winter maple]

How? What did they do to console?

[alpine oyster]

I thought I read they aren't launching on those consoles. I could be wrong but remember reading

[winter maple]

Wow

I was so excited to play the beta too…

[alpine oyster]

Just googled and confirmed not on ps4

[winter maple]

Only to hear about at least 100 people destroyed their computer just to play a video game

[alpine oyster]

I was almost one of those lpppl lol

[winter maple]

You’re one of the lucky ones

I’ve read so many comments about them breaking their computer I can’t even know the number

[ancient summit]

Instead of complaining that you can't play, just go to work and buy a better motherboard, don't sit here. I, a poor Pole, can play, while the rich West cries xd.

[alpine oyster]

NVIDA drivers updates makes my monitor unresponsive and the 1st time I reimaged my windows thinking it bricked.

[winter maple]

All for a game…

Like they must know what’s been happening to people right?

[winter maple]

You’re acting like you would just go and buy an entire new motherboard just to turn on one setting (that’s not needed) just for ONE game

[spark prairie]

Secure boot doesn’t brick pcs lol

You just reimage and go again

[winter maple]

I guess everyone is a liar then

Nobody ruined their pc YAaaayy

Happy ending

[ancient summit]

bro my old b550 had secure boot xd. Now i have x870

[spark prairie]

Secure was introduced in windows 8 iirc

[winter maple]

Not on every single computer

[winter maple]

I know you wouldn’t

[spark prairie]

If someone bricked their pc cause they enabled a feature in bios, that comes with their mobo and it bricked it, they did something wrong.
End of story

[winter maple]

Doesn’t change the fact that it’s not needed

I’m sure some people just did it wrong but a lot of people just can’t do it at all

[alpine oyster]

If you really want to play the game. That's exactly what you'd do tho.

[winter maple]

That’s why these companies get away with it

[spark prairie]

Bro you have room temp iq

[winter maple]

You’re a simp for EA

[spark prairie]

Said whilst on a EA discord channel

[jade quarry]

guys?

[spark prairie]

Gals?

Why can’t we all get along

[jade quarry]

did you get lost in here or something?

are you looking for this? #battlefield-6

[winter maple]

I was trying to figure out if anyone knows about this issue is all

[jade quarry]

check your channel settings for this server. tick the Battlefield 6 channel category.

[winter maple]

Then everyone immediately started defending EA’s silly choice

[spark prairie]

Legit go be mad elsewhere, secure boot is here to stay

[winter maple]

You guys are getting mad at me

[spark prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-f111-gif-9344105

[winter maple]

Acting like I’m the issue for not wanting to buy another motherboard, when all the billion dollar company has to do is turn of the requirement

[jade quarry]

I mean...

the requirement for Secure Boot won't end here and it will eventually be the default on every system anyway.

even Windows 11 will require it from what I've heard.

but guys...

[winter maple]

Yeah but why is it required?

[jade quarry]

can we just move with this to #battlefield-6 maybe? or #general?

[jade quarry]

for Battlefield or in general?

[winter maple]

Just something to think about

[winter maple]

Nah it’s fine, I’m just gonna leave the server cause it’s not like the news applies to me anymore anyway since there is not hope of them turning it off lol, but I did find it hilarious that the first time I started talking about the issue, I immediately started getting attacked by 2 simp losers who are on their knees with their mouths wipe open for the billion dollar company that doesn’t even know who they are

[kindred agate]

You can find the answer to that in #secure-boot-info.

[minor schooner]

[alpine oyster]

Can't make em all happy.

[proper laurel]

When tommorow is launch time?

[mighty forge]

https://portal.battlefield.com/

its up

start creating

[jade quarry]

YES!!!

🤯

[languid geode]

did you guys play the beta test? was Windows 10 system lagging?

I see the recommended configuration requires Windows 11

[shut steeple]

it was fine for me

but i got 11 recently in 20 min with auto update

doesnt feel bad either

[pastel coyote]

#screenshots-and-clips message

looking forward to playing and checking out the new Portal!!!

[wide kiln]

1 days boys

[zenith cypress]

Anyone able to make afk lobbies tomorrow ?

[round sundial]

ehm, question, Why das "CQ" and "Respawn" gets converted to ###? ""24/7 ## Large Maps (Firestorm/Mirak Valley] Fast Vehicle #######""

well, anyway: x85f 24/7 CQ Large Maps [Firestorm/Mirak Valley] Fast Vehicle Respawn

[wanton nymph]

Anyone in good faith wiling to hook a dude up with steam key for BF6. Got my pink slip today uhg

[round sundial]

no begging.. uhh

[wanton nymph]

Why i said good Faith. thank you

[crisp frigate]

21 hourssssssssssssss!!!!!!

[viscid frigate]

Please add 'ESCALATION' as a 'Verified Mode' on Portal https://forums.ea.com/discussions/battlefield-6-general-discussion-en/please-add-escalation-as-a-verified-mode-on-portal/12724603

[fair spindle]

some one sure to make it. so much more tools then last game to make great portal games

[viscid frigate]

Escalation is an official mode, it's just not part of Portal's 'Verified Modes' yet.

Custom modes receive reduced XP.

[versed forge]

Am I understanding the readme in the portalsdk correctly? We’d use godot just for the map editor, and typescript for the logic? No logic manipulation using gdscript?

[wooden flower]

Anyone can tell me if the update is already installed or we all need to download at the start of the bf6?

Update 1.0.1.0

[shell bolt]

does anybody know how to swap the entire teams in portal ? i want to make people to be able to play bouth sides on the maps

[novel seal]

so portal is up for creating experiences.. but the portal maps available in 2042 are not included... 🙁
Only bf6 maps

[fathom hamlet]

Previous Portal maps probably not compatible with the new Portal. Lots of changes have happened since then.

[mighty forge]

https://x.com/matavatar/status/1976359667799556184

Day one shipment

[novel crest]

Yes thank you battlefield got my 2 servers up no hassle 🙌

[ornate dock]

There are any tutorial to use the portal sdk ?

[novel crest]

Bro i downloaded that looked at it and went nope past my pay packet 😆

[novel seal]

that's a cod map iirc?

a very tiny one even for cod

[pastel coyote]

any info on creating a restricted zone? i.e. "the floor is lava" if you touch it you die?

[versed forge]

No tutorial yet, but you can paste the readme and the index.d.ts file into ChatGPT for assistance.

[pastel coyote]

CombatArea collisionpolygon is only for max play area boundaries?

[mighty forge]

look at "InteractPoint" blocks

[viscid frigate]

I just have a feeling 'some' of the 2042 maps will comeback, like Exposure since there's that massive lake on it that's unused.

[mighty forge]

you can make a death plane, set its custom objId and then reference in block/scripting

[novel seal]

is there a way to see/disable different vehicle unlocks or weapon attachements?

[mighty forge]

bfportal.gg

[viscid frigate]

I couldn't find that. I was looking for that to see how many unlocks the Jet has, if any...

[mighty forge]

actually this might be wrong, hmm

join the portal discord, we can share images there

[versed forge]

Link?

[mighty forge]

.

[ornate dock]

I found basic tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1LNorfPlNc

[pastel coyote]

is there a way to rotate PolygonVolumes for keepout areas/death zones?!?! trying to restrict movement in certain map areas

[cold vector]

So are we able to play at 12AM on the 10th?

[fair spindle]

counts on what time zone. i am CST so its 10 am for me. in 18 hours 25min

[novel seal]

<t:1760108400:R>

[late carbon]

How we all feeling on BF6?

Who is ready?!

[native sphinx]

wrong question

who's not ready

[late carbon]

mb mb you right tho

[keen sand]

I’m at work, can we already play? Some one tell me please

[late carbon]

bro I took PTO for tomorrow

[keen sand]

I’m leaving work tomorrow f it

[lyric aurora]

How many people are going to create hardcore servers???

[jade quarry]

probably enough people.

this new tool set is massive.

[native sphinx]

console only

if you have a disk

[late carbon]

Pre-loaded in steam already

[late carbon]

W!

[jade quarry]

and hardcore is just the tip of the tip of the iceberg. 😂

[native sphinx]

then game isn't playable yet

[late carbon]

not yet 11am EDT or 8amPDT

[past bobcat]

wait so will we be able to use GDScript for custom stuff in Portal now? Looks like its only TypeScript :/

[native sphinx]

sorry that wasn't supposed to be a question

[late carbon]

LMAO its aight Im too excited to not answer anything

[native sphinx]

same

so close yet so far

[chrome marten]

I can access portal!!!

[late carbon]

HOW?!

[chrome marten]

https://portal.battlefield.com/bf6/experiences

[chrome marten]

"Download SDK" from the link above

[late carbon]

thx!

I want to see what the community can make with the new Portal im so excited

[chrome marten]

there's some cool things I've noticed: https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/1o2ho7j/you_can_access_bf6s_portal_and_check_out_the_map/

[chrome marten]

I can't wait to make my own maps

I was going to get started but I have no clue what the models look like so I am going to wait until I can explore them in-game lol

[steady moth]

Will they be releasing platoon option on day 1?

[novel crest]

Ive 2 up and ready to go for release conquest and breakthrough

[somber lance]

has anyone figured out how to spawn into a level via godot editor and do things like walk around or fly?

[opaque cairn]

kind of.

[opaque cairn]

i followed the first few steps here and got to edit the map zone boundaries. https://youtu.be/tIg2NZmtyMI

hard to know if you can add extra vehicles to the maps that aren't 'approved'

[somber lance]

yeah but there is no way to spawn in to "test" or "play" your map while editing?

[opaque cairn]

i dont think so. i was trying that too

[somber lance]

well thats fucking stupid. if i gotta constantly make changes and then boot the game to test it lol

[opaque cairn]

there is a play/test button. its a game engine. But for me its just grey, but i dont have the game at all yet.

[somber lance]

just gonna have to wait for some official guides i guess

[opaque cairn]

They should have been doing that the past week. Needs a tutorial series. Good luck!

[wooden dove]

No idea. Is it even possible to access the Portal website yet? Because I can't find anything yet.

[lyric aurora]

You already have a server up???

[novel crest]

Yeah there both published on portal so thats live for release day

[novel crest]

Check your dms

[opaque cairn]

There's no 'Out of zone' areas on the rooftops of Cairo or Manhattan connected to that "CollisionPolygon3d" so there must be more to it

https://youtu.be/l1LNorfPlNc

[wooden dove]

Nevermind can access the Portal site for Battlefield 6 now 🙂

Of course still can't play anything until the game releases though.

[lyric aurora]

That’s sick!!!! Field of vision driving/ flying???

[novel crest]

Everything bar noobie shotties

[novel crest]

If they make shotguns a 2 or 3 shot kill I'll add them back but until then no chance 🤣

[lyric aurora]

lol, what’s the name of the lobby?

[novel crest]

Its i your dms bro conquest one anyway

[opaque cairn]

found the vehicle spawner.. Fascinating.

i take back all my sarcasm over the past few weeks as you were

[wooden dove]

Good News: I did say I would make Default Modes with AI Enabled and Vehicle Redeploy down to 10% time (fastest I can get it) for each Map and so far that is working perfectly.

Because of the minimal changes they are even being Published almost instantly and will get Full XP 🙂

Will work on the more crazy Vehicle Modes I have planned After Launch

[novel crest]

Is ai working with full xp i didnt put them in as 2042 only has restricted xp using them

[wooden dove]

So far it says my modes will work with Full XP and I have the Bots set to Backfill. If people try to make those farming servers though it probably won't work. Will have to wait and see.

Then again the only thing I change besides enabling the Bots is making the Vehicles Respawn faster. Everything else is still normal.

[supple cypress]

Will there be 128 players in the portal? It's just that the website and SDK clearly stated 128. And will the Battle Royale map be available in the editor? https://portal.battlefield.com/bf6/ru-ru/experience/game-mode

[novel crest]

Of course they'll make farming servers hate them things they clog up space for real ones

[novel crest]

Ive a feeling BR going to be a public server only

[supple cypress]

It's a shame, I'd really like to make a capture on this map for 128 players

[wooden dove]

I agree. Those I agree should be banned. However all I am doing is enabling the Bots and making the Vehicles Respawn fast after being destroyed. No reason why mine shouldn't be able to have Full XP.

[novel crest]

From past experience is was use of bots it took it away I'll have a look tomorrow before launch

[opaque cairn]

i just want every map, city limits extended, jets + helis on every map, no ai, conquest.

I can see why they wouldn't let you BUILD on the br map, but they should let you guys make custom modes that would be incredible

[novel crest]

We'll find out later this month I suppose. Ive not really got interest in BR side but if they let you build one why not 🤣🤣

[small basin]

what do you gust think it will be dark or light side of portal creators more?

[mighty forge]

light. you need to submit your creations for review, so there should be less xp slop

[mighty forge]

128 players is leftover from bf2042, the limit is 64

[small basin]

okay that's better than in BF2042 already

[small basin]

imagine BF6 with 128 players absolute cinema

[vapid brook]

So there are persistent servers & servers browser through Portal but this doesn't seem to be satisfying people? Why is that?

Community made servers can be eligible to be made official right?

[median bear]

anyone using the SDK already? I did some changes on Liberation peak ( cant understand how to move flags, just can move combat area and spawning points) but when I export and try to import via the portal I get the following error:

Error

The following error(s) occurred while trying to import and experience:
No game mode set.

Any idea how to fix this? The json files from gadot seems very different compared to the one generate by the web portal itself

[sweet phoenix]

Anyone see a way to set up a KOTH Mode? The mode selection in custom edit is greyed out

[fierce roost]

Because its not an experience that you upload but a " map preset "

You need Custom Experience to be able to upload the edited map and when you are on map rotation , you select *your map and you have a button to upload json file of the map

[small topaz]

I want to make an amongus style mode but I have no clue what I'm looking at.

[pulsar zenith]

I have what might be a stupid question. the open beta file probably isnt the same as the full release is it? probably a full separate download?

[opaque cairn]

why does Class lock weapons turn on when you turn on hardcore mode

[pulsar zenith]

because thats how battlefield should be played!

[opaque cairn]

sure, great. Why does it happen though

[pulsar zenith]

I just told you

[fierce roost]

Portal show BF6 but idk if the sdk is updated or outdated

[pulsar zenith]

mine still says open beta. no biggie! thanks for answerin!

[fierce roost]

On portal website ?

The SDK seems date to 07 october

and 8 october 21:13 for some files

[opaque cairn]

I have a test ready to publish when i buy it tomorrow. How exciting

[weak sand]

Does BF6 Portal still give full XP if you turn on Backfill bots for a 100% vanilla Verified Mode?

[fierce roost]

mmm it seems custom edit for sure break xp

[weak sand]

Custom edit to my understanding is based on time spent in match, whereas verified modes are supposed to work normally.

I’m planning on running a persistent conquest server, I’m just not sure if it’s better to leave bots off and hope people join, or turn on bots that go away as people join

[fierce roost]

20min game in custom mode show me reduced xp without editing anything

When you publish you can see it at step 3

[weak sand]

Yeah, I published 2 lists, both the bots on and bots off. Both said normal

[fierce roost]

on Custom ?

[weak sand]

On Verified Mode

[fierce roost]

yeah on verified its full xp

Sad to see without making any script custom mode reduce xp 🙁

[weak sand]

Here’s hoping they don’t nerf backfill bot lobbies because of server abuse

[median bear]

so any map changes needs custom mode? And then how you make conquest in custom mode lol or rush? it will be nice if there are some examples, so we dont have to invent the hot water 🙂

[fierce roost]

Yeah you can't upload json files on verified mode but i didnt used portal since like 5 years so i dont know if its a bug or if we need to script the mode in custom mode because we can't choose the mode, its just " By default "

[full prairie]

How long until someone builds a 2 towers map?

[fierce roost]

Haha i thinked about it, it remind me the 2d map editor from delta force black hawk down

[jade quarry]

crazy activity here.

[small rock]

thats sucks that we cant send images here

[dreamy heron]

same

[spare tiger]

I bought bf6 can i somehow upgrade it to the phantom version?

On steam

I can’t seem to find it

[fierce roost]

try on #general you have more chance i guess

[dim wolf]

FROM BRASIL HERE NOW PLAYNG

helloo guyss hahaha

[fierce roost]

playing portal ?

[tired kiln]

probably he's anouther troll

15 hours untill game will launch

[fierce roost]

Release time is same everywhere in the world

[tired kiln]

[oak hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/hhgf-gif-11696992756836915596

Fuck

Anyways just release the game already , I want my nostalgia past like back in high school when bf3,4 came out.

[quaint fog]

loving the sdk

been just making a map ontop of cairo

wonder if it'll just allow me to import custom models since I dropped a plate from my other godot project

[wooden shoal]

So I’m guessing from the PC talk, Portal will only be available on PC and Mobile, and that Console will be less reliable?

[quaint fog]

2 separate ways of accessing portal iirc

the web browser would be like 2042 making like specific combinations then the SDK would be in depth and map editing

[restive crag]

anyone know how to add vehicles into maps in portal for 6

[wooden shoal]

Alright, I usually just used Portal to Safely Explore the terrains and take in just how much effort they put in the terrain for both visually beautiful and combat lanes

[quaint fog]

can't share a image of the sdk but its just a plain map with spawns

can't actually edit the map itself

you can add objects so I'm building a map ontop of the original map

don't know how it'll play like but lets hope

[opaque cairn]

In the editor under Objects, Gameplay, Common. You'll see vehicle spawner, drag that in and then choose which vehicle in the inspector

untested

[hard jetty]

Matavatar Creaing Shipment 24/7 and killhouse LoL

https://x.com/Matavatar/status/1976359667799556184

[restive crag]

thanks man, last question though, im assuming we cant add json to official gamemodes huh

[opaque cairn]

I think you upload it to the portal website, onto a playlist with the same map + then publish it. Here - https://youtu.be/l1LNorfPlNc?si=AT5VmbMwaAjydZOl&t=481

[restive crag]

nah i just checked sadly its only for portal custom, not verified modes. bummer. really wanted jets in breakthrough

[night hatch]

my sdk just shows a shit ton of triangles

and it is very irritating to the eye

[marsh pine]

the portal editor is sick, unfortunately i suck

[marsh pine]

i mean it probably takes time for it to be verified

[restive crag]

Nah thats not what I mean. Portal custom is like making your own gamemode from scratch. I just wanted to use breakthrough as a base but expand the map boundaries and add vehicles

[marsh pine]

ah k

it looks like you can though

just select a verified mode

restrictions
Vehicles
enable what you want

actually nvm it might not actually enable you to force vehicle in mode

[gusty zinc]

does portal have a terrian\skybox editor

or is it just limited to spawning moving objects

[marsh pine]

i dont think terrain forming is possible yet

[patent lava]

there's no blank state map either @gusty zinc

[gusty zinc]

I hope we get some blank canvas maps then

[patent lava]

yea that's like the two big ones. Building on top of default maps will just ruin FPS and stuff

really hoping for custom textures and stuff too. portal can carry hardd

[gusty zinc]

can we import 3d models ?

[patent lava]

I believe from a video I heard, they said something a long the lines of add ons

and also able to edit default map terrains

[gusty zinc]

as long as we can import models and they give us a flat piece of map to build on

I can do the rest in blender

[patent lava]

importing models would be crazyy

just thinking in my head the possibilities

[gusty zinc]

they need to commit fully to real mapping tools if they want the A list talent

nobody wants sky scafolds

[patent lava]

I think they are heavily worried about FPS

[gusty zinc]

great so give me a blank map and tools and ill build it

[patent lava]

true

[gusty zinc]

if I am stuck importing models with blender thats gonna hurt performance

[patent lava]

Im just thinking because they already have assets that can't be on specific maps

it wont let you. I guess it was for FPS reasons

[gusty zinc]

thats why they just need to generate a handful of base terrian maps mininal assets

basicly a flat section of maps and let people play

[patent lava]

a flat map would be crazy too lmao

[gusty zinc]

give me a 6km^2 flat empty space

and let me build

I don't much see the point of people putting stairs in the sky and roads to the moon

because thats what people will do

[patent lava]

yep we can only hope

[quaint fog]

I've imported a model but I can't test it in game yet

it didn't give me a error like the error when you import a different object from lets say cairo to the new york map

[mighty forge]

Can’t import custom assets

[small rock]

💔

[eager atlas]

does anyone know if portal will work the same as 2042 with the website or will it be al in-game

[mossy lark]

need bfv on bf6 portal

[shut trout]

Does anyone know if it is possible to create a random place on the map (let's say a pit or a room/hall) where the enemy team will be spawning constantly which would only be one place designated for that with tanks, cars and infantry? Also will it be possible to put constant respawning spawn beacons on the map so the opposite team will be spawning in that certain beacon place if they choose to constantly? Is it possible to set it In Godot I mean

[azure tide]

yes

[shut trout]

Did you refer to my message?

[small rock]

lol

[azure tide]

no ur name

not your name

[azure tide]

your namw

[sly pawn]

Where's the editor?

[lavish jungle]

oh boy it's the 10th of October! I hope I can play my new preloaded game on ps5 that released 10th of October!

oh it comes out at 4pm 😐😑

[oak hawk]

Counting it down boys!

[shut trout]

Anyone knows?

[shy oasis]

Haha... that's good - in Australia we can't play until 2am Saturday morning! (the 11th)

[lavish jungle]

Steam player count obsession killed the console midnight release💔

[desert drift]

question, could materials be changed for godot? like a block slope can have a grass/metal/plastic/damaged material like a universal object?

[hard jetty]

on web portal setting, max 64 players...but i need know if edit Ruler Editor...can we set 128 players?

[white dove]

i wanna play bf6 NOW！😭

[echo bone]

guys do you remember bf3 co-op missions, I wonder if its available to create something like this in portal in bf6

I really enjoyed these coop missions

[ember meteor]

I think you should just wait till the game is out to figure that out

[sinful osprey]

Guys if you have physical you play Early or not

[thick cargo]

WTH is Saints Quarter? Ig the map got lost, should actually be in cod lol

[opaque cairn]

Doesn't support conquest either like I thought maybe they were hiding something cool. Nope.

[hasty glacier]

Can i create portal maps on macbook or is it PC only?

[opaque cairn]

Doubt it. It's nicer outside the apple ecosystem anyway, please leave

[iron lagoon]

Any info when it's out

[opaque cairn]

7.5 hours

[wet needle]

Guys, does anyone know if you can preview your portal build on local machine, or do you have to boot up a server?

[tribal vale]

is it possible to recrate hotwire mode from Hardline with the conquest rule editor?

[jade quarry]

is it you that wanted to stick a conquest flag to a vehicle?

[hasty glacier]

NO

[tidal silo]

hoping new maps in season pass are added simultaneously to portal

[tidal flame]

1

[primal tide]

ETA for the release?

[hasty glacier]

6 hours 52 minutes

Who? Where? Link?

[oak hawk]

This depending on ur time zone

[hasty glacier]

How it depends on timezone? Countdown is the same 😄

5pm CET (Prague) is in 6 hours and 44 minues - in different timezone it will be still 6 hours and 44 minutes till launch

[runic loom]

Where bf6 💔💔

I need bf6

😔🤚

[grizzled moth]

Happy BF6 Release day

[lyric aurora]

LETSSS GOOOOOOO

[quick sequoia]

hello everyone. I'm having trouble signing in to EA to access portal. I get stuck on the "we'll send a verification code" screen on Chrome.

normally when hovering over a button, you'll see the destination address at the bottom left but in this case, its

javascript:void(0);

meaning nothing happens or returns

[stuck knoll]

psst, ill give you guys my cookies if you release the game rn

https://tenor.com/view/insomnia-cookies-chocolate-chunk-cookies-cookies-box-of-cookies-dessert-gif-4208994516626644149

[oak hawk]

Just RELEASE IT PLEASE

The devs over there enjoying the game while we waiting lol jk

[void needle]

not possible currently

[void needle]

yes and yes

[void needle]

it's split into three parts
Object placement that you do using godot
Scripting that you do using portal web
And hosting the server that you do in-game

[mystic sky]

How the fuck does BF6 release for aussies who happen to own a PHYSICAL COPY and able to play it but pc players who digitally purchase have to sit and patiently wait?

[gusty tusk]

A lot of the out of bounds areas seem to be over simplified- missing trees from outside liberation peak, missing buildings from outskirts of Gibraltar

If this isn’t the case though, there is a large flat area on Gibraltar that would be perfect for making custom maps

[tribal geode]

The portal SDK and the web-based editor is accessible: https://portal.battlefield.com/bf6/de-de/experiences

[royal fern]

Because the physical copy gives you all the files decrypted so you can just boot it up, whilst preloads on digital marketplaces are handled by the marketplace itself. You download an encrypted version of the game which is decrypted by Steam on release. If you were able to get the unencrypted files for PC you could also play early.

Press and content creators got early access, which is probably why the servers have been turned on already (or maybe it's just for the DICE QA teams to test everything in the real production env before release).

[tribal geode]

I would try to deactivate ad-block

[quick sequoia]

tried with deactivating all extensions

[tribal geode]

Works with current Vivaldi ( Chromium based ) though

[quick sequoia]

are you on windows? my chrome is also currently up to date

I'm on macos

[tribal geode]

Yep, I am on Windows

[reef hawk]

always been the way, phyisical discs can sometimes arrive earlier than release day or on the day early and off they go.

[tribal geode]

Is gaming on MacOS really a thing?

[quick sequoia]

yes but it a lot of asterisks

[tribal geode]

Like with a translation layer like Proton on Linux?

[royal fern]

By jumping through a bunch of hoops for every game, yes. Proton works better than what's available for Mac though (generally speaking)

And games like bf6 is impossible to play because of the anticheat

[tribal geode]

I know that problem with Proton. Is it the same with MacOS?

[royal fern]

Yes

[quick sequoia]

non-native games yes. there are several translators such as DXVK which I think is for DirectX12, Metal etc.

all going through WINE

[glass owl]

wow, theres a fk ton of stuff in the rules editor now lol

[tribal geode]

Your javascript:void(0); - problem is really weird since thats the default behavior of ad-blocks. They just replace the underlying JS code and replace it with exactly that

[glass owl]

nvm they did im blind lol

[tribal geode]

There is a search function

[quick sequoia]

i thought that too but it wasn't. so I just reinstalled chrome and its fine...for now

[glass owl]

aight fellas, im making a hybrid RTS like that one game

[tribal geode]

But I have not found any documentation on the blocks. You can always right-click and press "HELP". But this is very rudimentary. Object Types are not clear without documentation

[glass owl]

thats how it was with 2042's portal so

but i agree, i hope they just give us a proper docs site with everything together

i would probably suggest just using the sdk

[tribal geode]

The next question is: Can you define objects in Godot and reference them in "Block Editor"? Some functions seem to imply that

[quick sequoia]

going to try and make a Bad Company 2 style Rush game mode

[glass owl]

and learning ts lol

[tribal geode]

If you can do JS, you can do TS

Its just a superset

[glass owl]

you can

[opaque cairn]

try to support smaller creators too not just the popular map remake dudes

[tribal geode]

I will be trying to make a BF 2042 Titan Mode clone. But as I can see, this will take a loooong time

[glass owl]

but you dont need to use the block editor. can just do all your scripting in godot

[tribal geode]

But why add a VS Code Editor in the web-based app then?

This is weird

I would love to see that whole underlying code. There is GodotJS, but this is just a port of Godot, AFAIK. So, either they use GodotJS, or Godot, which would imply GDScript. But the web-based code editor creates .ts files. So either, they used Godot.JS or there is a translation layer from GDScript to TS. And how do they inject the code into their game instances? I'm confused

[glass owl]

wym? its for people that want to script using just the web interface

vs if you have the godot sdk and workspace setup, you can just use that instead...

[tribal geode]

Because the "main branch" of Godot uses GDScript. It would be strange to use Godot.JS. See my thought process on the message above

[glass owl]

yea you're right, ts would be developed separately

i assumed they'd have a conversion layer for gd

[tribal geode]

That would make sense. But then, what is more stable? Using Godot.JS or writing your own translation layer?

[glass owl]

cuz there is actually a gdconverter in the sdk but i havent looked at what it does yet

but its probably just for the level editor

[quick sequoia]

we can't post images here?

[tribal geode]

Seems like it. Doesnt work for me either

[quick sequoia]

wanted to post my experience thumbnail but okay then

[tribal geode]

This Godot project is THICC

[glass owl]

ye lol

they packed all the raw model files in it

[tribal geode]

I have never seen a Godot projects needing more than a few seconds to load on my machine xD

[glass owl]

theres 5k model files lol

[tribal geode]

The scripts in the SDK are in GDScript

[wild reef]

Has anyone made an air superiority mode yet?

[tribal geode]

Game is not even out yet xD Air Superiority will be fairly easy, so I guess soon(TM)

[opaque cairn]

Give them some time, i'm sure people will create blueprints for multiple modes you can take and edit

[wild reef]

will it need to be done through the SDK or web editor?

[opaque cairn]

sdk

[glass owl]

aw, hope they let us use objects from other maps in a different map

[tribal geode]

Air superiority is conquest with an uncappable flag and many aircraft, right? I think you can do that with an existing map in web editor with ease

[wild reef]

Doesn't even need to be air superiorly, just a mode where I can get good with jets

[opaque cairn]

they didnt provide that blueprint though, so sdk

[tribal geode]

Blueprint for what?

[opaque cairn]

or join a game and turn off bots

Modes like Air superiority. Like they have with conquest + rush + breakthrough

a basic setup to start you off

[tribal geode]

But you can take conquest and use the block editor to deactivate flags and spawn aircraft

[opaque cairn]

yes, in the sdk, like im saying

[tribal geode]

No, in the web-based block editor

[opaque cairn]

thats not the real mode though thats just conquest

[tribal geode]

Can you describe what "air superiority" is as a game mode?

[opaque cairn]

jesus. Goodbye

[tribal geode]

Its been over 10 years since I last played that. I am sorry 🙁

Did not want to offend you

[glass owl]

yea we've had multiple air superiorities in multiple bf games so

[opaque cairn]

😆 sorry i thought. My bad, Air superiority you spawn in mid air, The sdk provides 'vehicle spawns' you can place into the air or ground, for each team. So, like the have setup for conquest with the team HQ, i expect a setup like that

[glass owl]

iirc bf3 had the flying blimps as control points

[tribal geode]

You are right! Did not think about that, you need to place the spawns for the vehicles in Godot

[opaque cairn]

I know Air sup is already setup, they've shown it, so i do expect a setup soon. Thats what i mean by blueprints. I think people will eventually provide the jsoon files on each map for you to create what you want, easier

[glass owl]

would be cooler, if you just make an airfield with super janky scaled buildings using their rooftops as runway and clip them into the terrain haha

theres probably already some sort of generic wall you can use instead

too many assets to look through xd

[tribal geode]

There should be a L-shaped concrete wall on the liberation peak map

[glass owl]

gonna need to go fly around every map taking photos so i know what assets there are lol

[opaque cairn]

ye we need a textured library to view

[glass owl]

theres multiple skyscraper buildings in gibraltor that i have no clue if they have collision or not xD

[opaque cairn]

Manhattan has big buildings too. I want to see if placeable objects have any destruction at all

[glass owl]

oh ok they are placed in the backdrop directory

so they probably dont

[tribal geode]

The first tutorials are out on YT on the portal editor. It seems you can only scale objects uniformly, otherwise the map is invalid

[glass owl]

oh shit

sad

[tribal geode]

Assets from one map cannot be inserted to other maps

[opaque cairn]

ye

mods dont like it when youre helpful

[tribal geode]

True xD

[opaque cairn]

Should create a Portal Creator discord for wips + helping each other

[tribal geode]

It would be better to have that on the official BF discord for better visibility

[glass owl]

i mean 2042's portal channels were very good

[tribal geode]

But it seems there are some rules on the BF Discord which make it hard

[opaque cairn]

funny the mods werent so active when they were actually needed to do their job

that discord is great. Exactly what i was thinking of, thanks

[keen hill]

Bf portal discord was going for a solid 14+ hours with people making stuff.

[humble pilot]

shh... let's name it "the discord you're not supposed to talk about in here" 🙈

[opaque cairn]

[keen hill]

We both know that exists. Several ripple devs in it too. Had a sound dev on earlier

[summer current]

when turning off spotting in the portal expierience creator does it mean no 3D spotting or all spotting(no 3D and no Minimap spotting ) ?

[spice stratus]

Holy moly this game is finally about to come out

[void imp]

Less than 4 hours to go….

[opaque cairn]

what are we meant to wait on after this 🥲

[glossy shore]

Someone I know received their PS5 copy from Amazon hours ago and has been playing already.

us pc plebs have to wait

[copper apex]

Wrong

[crystal lantern]

bf6 waiting room

cant sleep

hella people playing for the last 2 days smh

unfair 🙁

[acoustic igloo]

Hey guys, not sure if this is the correct place to post this.
Any of you using the Godot Portal Editor?

[opaque cairn]

yup

[acoustic igloo]

Did you have any issues with the Viewport? When I open a map, it's all messed up.

[rose quiver]

Did anyone see an ai diffuculty option in portal? Cant see it

Idm if theres one default setting, just checkinh didnt miss anything

[opaque cairn]

the levels are usually above the camera by default i think, Use Shift+Middle mouse to move around

[manic steppe]

Quick nap before the drop i think. 4am drop time for NZ

[acoustic igloo]

not sure if that's the issue, it's hard to explain without a screenshot. can I post it somewhere?

[opaque cairn]

sorry helping people is illegal. ill dm you a better discord for this though?

Im used ot 3d but this is my first time using Godot im figuring this out too

[acoustic igloo]

of course, mate. thanks for that!

[brazen dove]

anybody knows why portal only shows Breakthrough, Conquest, and Rush game modes and not anything else?
or if i create a custom mode, then what mechanics does it follow? TDM, Rush, Something else, Something elser?

[opaque cairn]

done

[fast skiff]

I'm wondering that too. Surely they don't want us to have to create the full game mode in the logic editor do they?

[lyric aurora]

2 1/2 hours!!!!

[tidal leaf]

fkk yesss

[flint flax]

Hey all, i've got the SDK but how do i open the BF6 maps or is that not able to be made yet?

nvm i didn't read

[polar thorn]

I'm just happy with an easy light vehicle only server, glad it was easy to make haha If people want to play that today, tomorrow, any time: xhtq (Conquest - All maps - Light vehicle only - 100% default rules)

[sinful plank]

HAPPY BF6 DAY EVERYONE!!!!

[light root]

Cheers 🥂

[strange delta]

can't wait for blank map + terrain editing 🙂

[opaque cairn]

how were those guys creating maps between the mountains of Lib Peak when the map chunk cuts off the mountains before that

[eager atlas]

so it's COMPLETELY different then what I'm used to. got it. do I need a PC to make a portal now?

[lyric aurora]

Metro + locker maps please

[proven cradle]

Ok so my question is what are the limits exactly of portal? I have 2 models imported that have pre-baked animations, I cannot "debug" run the map because it sits on a black screen in its own window so I can't see if animations work yet, Does look nice tho.

[proven cradle]

you need a PC to edit maps using the SDK yeah, But if you want to use logic blocks like on 2042's portal, you can do all the stuff you can do on 2042's portal on the new portal page.

[bright ruin]

Has anyone made any portal servers?

[eager atlas]

is it easy to use or do I need to learn it lol. also it's a program right?

[proven cradle]

looking into that using QGIS to generate terrain data from google maps and NASA heightmaps.

[proven cradle]

It's software yeah, but you can do the web stuff the same as you could on 2042's version of portal.

[eager atlas]

nice

[proven cradle]

I already have a dinosaur added to the NY map lolol

your limits are gonna be imagination I imagine lol

right now, the dino has just an idling animation, But thats enough to test whether or not it displays correctly ingame.

[opaque cairn]

I imagine you'll never get published with external imports, but if you can share your code, with new terrain.. that blows it wide open

[proven cradle]

Something tells me imported models will be accepted but will be subject to moderation checks first

the new portal page does show the status of when you upload edits and under review was one of the steps.

[night hatch]

128 player hallway

[strange delta]

I was watching the how to video from Matavatar, according to that currently you are limited to use the official maps that comes with the game as a starting point (no blank maps yet, no terrain editing) and only the objects that are included per map, stuff you import yourself will not load

[night hatch]

that has been known for months

[proven cradle]

I can see terrain importing being a thing at some point, probably not at launch anyway

[errant turtle]

Man this paycheck needs to hurry and hit my account so I can pre order ts

[rare sierra]

https://youtu.be/l1LNorfPlNc?si=Fixi5hnrtNAtnUDl

Incase it hasn't been posted yet

[rare sierra]

The map making tutorial

[atomic pulsar]

will BF6 remember your control settings from the beta?

[opaque cairn]

no. different game

[quick sequoia]

can I use the macos godot version with the portal sdk? it opens fine but I want to know if it will work entirely

[mighty forge]

they havent implemented portal setup for macos

[quick sequoia]

[mighty forge]

join the portal discord at bfportal.gg and upvote the macos support feature request

[versed hinge]

Does the game release at 10am cst?

[slender smelt]

Yeah I see 9 am and 10 am cst on different sites I’m confused

[kindred agate]

https://discord.gg/5pSngChg?event=1423734279887651016

There's a timestamp in here. 🙂

[vast aurora]

Anyone know how to set a game mode in godot? I'm just trying to import vanilla conquest.

[proven cradle]

Have you watched the short tutorial video on youtube? it has some basics such as object editing and modes etc

[vast aurora]

no... spare a link?

[proven cradle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1LNorfPlNc

There was me hoping we could import custom models and terrain 🙁 lol

[cinder scaffold]

anyone made dust2?

[proven cradle]

isn't that the one with the ramp near the bomb site on CS?

[novel crest]

Anyone having issues putting the link of your discord community in to description 👀

[vast aurora]

I'm still having trouble figuring it out. I can put down conquest objectives, but it's not declaring that the mode

[cinder scaffold]

well.. yeah theres lots of ramps in at bomb sites in cs but i think youre talking bout the right one

[willow prairie]

Please start the game, my brother is having epileptic seizures because he can't play

[stone burrow]

The hell had you thinking we would import custom models? Not even halo allows that. But I'm sure we'll be able to custom make something

[turbid kraken]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3584210421

[minor quail]

I’m gettin an error code is anyone else getting it as well when installing it on console

[kindred agate]

What's the error code? And what console?

[lunar island]

Hey everyone! BF6 drops in less than an hour — get ready! 💥
Happy gaming and good luck on the battlefield! 🫡

[minor quail]

On ps5 and CE-100095-5

[kindred agate]

And you get this when you're trying to install the game?

[minor quail]

Yes

[kindred agate]

The PlayStation support page says this is a launch error. Are you sure you're getting this when installing? https://www.playstation.com/en-ca/support/error-codes/ps5/ce-100095-5/

[broken cargo]

Soon fellas soon

Soon we shall crash the BF6 launcher

[minor quail]

Yes ima wait 20mins then see if it will work then

[broken cargo]

And take 4 hours getting in

[devout solstice]

Anyone playing this game?

I think peeps already playing on the west coast of the US

[stable parrot]

Are you planing on adding custom models and terrain manipulation into the portal tools down the line? or are you not able to speak on that?

[kindred agate]

We'll dig deeper into Portal plans later on. There are obviously some restrictions with that but the team has coms planned to get a bit more into what is possible at launch now and then what is planned later on.

[stable parrot]

Okay sounds cool, i think it has huge potential, could be awesome to see something cool come out of portal this time around

[novel crest]

Ya'll better not mess this up. Brother do not listen to main stream streamers like that other fps game did 🤭

[weary crescent]

i miss the towable artillery and my buddy forward observing for me.

[kindred agate]

I think you gravely misunderstand how feedback works. No need to put other games down. Sometimes decisions don't work out. But I can guarantee you that no company only listens to streamers. Let's have fun today, provide some feedback when you got a few hours in and we'll get the dev team to improve the game with a lot of different player profiles in mind. ❤️

[novel crest]

Why i didnt name them 🤣 thank you for your time to reply 13 mins to lift off 🙌

[lyric aurora]

Are we going to be able to change squad names in portal? Back to alpha, bravo, Charlie, delta??? When we have squad names like that. Respective squad goes after respective flag. Very important for team work!!!
