portal

[uncut wave]

Gotta bare in mind , i mod quite a few games with varying levels of official support , so I'm comparing the support to other games iv dabbled in, and tbh any kind of support is good support imo ,

Iv modded a game where the community had to build all the tools themselves, it's not the way, by no means an I critical of portal

[long junco]

Mind sharing your workarounds?

[jade hedge]

Anyone working on a rush map that takes place on the bridge of the manhattan map? 🥹

[crimson wedge]

I think they need to add a full test range like bf4 where you can test out all vehicles in it

[deep phoenix]

they definitely should give portal a lot of attention, its the reason why i bought the game for full price

[jade hedge]

Would be dope to see a rush map that is exclusively on the bridge of manhattan map and then another rush mode where you begin on the bridge and then eventually drop down like a sort of damavand peak type rush map

[uncut wave]

Tbh modding is where a games longevity lays, so id hope even if it's once they announce that next title, they perhaps open the floodgates to endless possibilities, if that's even truly possible, also alot goes into optimisation of assets ect ect, and tbh there's alot of ppl out there that would just take models from sketchfab I feel like

There's also the risk of having there own assets stolen tbh

[opal elm]

i am 99% sure that "repair vehicles for a total of 6000 points in one match" challenge is imposible.

[uncut wave]

I think tho if they had a 100% mod support build of the game it should be it's own install/launcher tho as not to not cause potential vulnerabilities

[sudden vigil]

de_dust2 and a fast cs mode in bf6 portal when?

[deep phoenix]

im sure they would make some kind of rating system that only the good mods show up on top of the list

[jade hedge]

I dont know anything about that mode but hasn't that already been in the game since launch? or was that like dust 1?

[covert junco]

attention all users. avoid joining Biker_Ducati host. it says its a vehicle test server but you get killed by the owners. they use this trick to kill people instantly at spawn. so remember that name

[sudden vigil]

not sure, i have to look it up now. thank you

[deep phoenix]

vr games having mod support without having a completely different launcher. like pavlov & contractos

[jade hedge]

Ok yeah if you're not sure then I'm like 98% sure it is the one you're talking about cos everybody was all hyped about it on launch day. Timthetatman and stuff were playing it on stream

[sudden vigil]

sweet

[mighty tundra]

hi all, any official docs for the new SDK?

[eternal flume]

Can you use an area trigger to check what type of projectile entered it?

[sudden vigil]

thank you

uhm, some mod doesnt like links it appears

[mighty tundra]

I'll say without the link then. I'm working off unofficial docs right now but the type definitions are lacking jsdocs.

[thin turtle]

I've just been rawdogging the index.d.js file with ctrl+f lol

[jade hedge]

Wait why did that get deleted after a few mins lol what the heck 🤣

[sudden vigil]

i guess links are not allowed

[jade hedge]

I've been posting links no problem for months on here. I've even seen Ganslinger who is one of the most active community managers in here say that you're allowed to post links just don't spam them in quick succession

[sudden vigil]

i wouldnt know, was just my guess

[jade hedge]

yeah, just weird

were you at least able to use the link before it magically disappeared lol @sudden vigil

[sudden vigil]

im afraid not but you said jackfrags, i think i can search it up

youre gonna get a warn if you redo a remove, please dont

[jade hedge]

Really? Even when ganslinger made it clear it's allowed?

I'll delete just to be safe

[cyan oyster]

They just need to make an official statement saying they will make maps much larger and open up the battlefield areas for a more battlefield type feel, or they have no plans to do so. Either way they need to make a statement, not Reddit sources or talking etc, hope they figure that out sooner than later so I can decide if I wanna refund 😂, I guess half my clan went back to bf4 lol

Come on paracel storm! Megalodon 2.0 baby!

[mighty tundra]

absolute mad man. kinda surprised there is zero docs though. Somebody created this API and just forgot?? kinda odd

[uncut wave]

They, are probably alot less worried about people working out back doors for nefarious use tho

[thin turtle]

Yeah for how in depth the tools are the docs are weirdly lacking, at least most of the functions have some sort of comment about the args I guess

[lucid marten]

Anyone figured out how console.log works in scripting?

[deep phoenix]

agree

[quaint bobcat]

any codes to check out?

[jade hedge]

All weekly challenges done Woohoo!

[deep phoenix]

soo uuh where ziba tower?

[austere ingot]

Its basically the print function

[night nebula]

Are there any default game modes in the SDK? I just want a simple deathmatch set up with the map I built.

I thought I could upload the map and then configure the game mode on the site

[lucid marten]

Yeah but I don't see it in my in-game console, so where does it end up?

[jade hedge]

You saw the image of it before launch right? I'm wondering where that is too

[austere ingot]

It goes to a js console. Typically in a web browser.

[icy flame]

I used GODOT to deploy the AI 1000 meters away. After entering the game, I found that I couldn't see the AI—I had to get closer to see it. If I redeploy , I can see it for a while, but then it disappears again after some time. Anyone knows what's the issue here?

[deep phoenix]

i think we just need to wait but weird they didnt get us right on release

[mighty tundra]

if there continues to be nothing, would you be interested in helping out with some context on some of this stuff so I can update the unofficial docs?

[jade hedge]

I'm so confused by the stuff that was shown like that before release. Like did a dev make that to tease us? and they never actually planned to release it? Do they want us to make it from scratch?

Like where's the flood zone remake that was in content creator's videos 2 weeks before launch? Was that made by a dev too just to showcase?

[deep phoenix]

tbh i have no clue what they do

portal 2042, maps made by devs. now we can do them somehow

[old acorn]

My Experience still says ''ACTION NEEDED'' I went through all the steps and cant see my experience in BF, can anyone help?

[echo hull]

Good evening, and I hope you are all having a great day. Is there an email address to contact EA Support? Thank you very much for your help

[lucid marten]

Yeah i know the usual behaviour, but i want to print in game when debugging my script

[south mist]

Yeah, this. Where is it… my all time favourite cqb map

When tugs and as-val combo was the sweaty rage in bf3

[jade hedge]

I do think remaking maps will eventually become stale unless you can drastically change color of objects and make it look a lot closer to the real thing. Cos we have shipment made and the rust remake just looks the same only it's now a rust layout

[south mist]

Tbh, they should just re-release the 3 D’s….
Dalian Plant
Dragon Valley
Daqin Oilfields

[deep phoenix]

weird that there isnt a colour tool to make assets every type of colour with remaining the texture on it

[jade hedge]

Water maps though, and using out of bounds areas that they have actually made very polished such as the bridge on manhattan. That's where it's at though!

Anyone know if the pyramids in the distance on sobek are rendered out nicely and can be used for a map?

[teal nymph]

does any one have a portal mode that helps with suppression fire challenges

[jade hedge]

I think over time we'll be able to make some really cool maps. I'm assuming nobody has been able to experiment with the crazy stuff like placing skyscrapers everywhere that they showed in the reveal teaser

I suppose I kinda take back my remakes getting stale comment. Every map has different looking assets. So as long as you're not making a container filled map then it shouldn't look the same as rust and shipment lol

Just those two remakes were made on op firestorm so makes sense why they look similar

[clear socket]

anybody know if theres a way to view recently played portal experiences?

[deep phoenix]

someone should make skyrim on portal when its possible in the future

imagine the battles that would happend

[brazen phoenix]

Just thinking about this today. Portal is powerful. If someone really puts their mind to it I don't see why a HLL mode could not be made. Obviously Garries and OPs are sort of out. Maybe lock squad lead to Assault and force the spawn beacon. Also really just overlaying HC rules and no slide plus match warfare mode. Maybe cap recon players per team and only 1 of each class per squad. Shit this could be juicy

[deep phoenix]

and is probably a better large map than we have right now

[viscid frigate]

Damavand Peak...

[opaque cairn]

There isnt one, the whole portal filter + sort Ui is broken

You can like a server afterwards, thast your best way

Maybe he wants a specific experience dum dum

yeah

[pulsar cave]

I replied to the wrong user. 100 my bad

[boreal wedge]

Anyone trying to host a map in bf6?

[opaque cairn]

all good

[opaque cairn]

i made a 3min tutorial if you want, ill send it in private

[pulsar cave]

can you send for me as well please

[boreal wedge]

I'm trying to do it it worked before but now I get error

[boreal wedge]

Send

[opaque cairn]

[coral stone]

hmmm why is my portal ping so high?

[deep phoenix]

banned

[kindred galleon]

Guys anybody setup a persistent server for normal conquest games with normal rules?
Can you favourite servers on portal?
I’m just wanting to favourite a server me and my pals can join as there are more than 4 of us playing you see

[sharp pine]

Guys can anyone give me battlefield 6 code?

[opaque cairn]

Do it 🙏

[deep phoenix]

k

[kindred galleon]

Need a server that’s going to be full constantly with full xp but everyone can join

Ah game servers at capacity.ive just found what im looking for.
Can people stop making daft little servers that nobody joins please thankyou

So creating your own server,can you only host one server?what’s the rules as WeissStudio_LIVE has 2 of the exact same servers,same map running 24/7 ,everything both not even half full.
Ridiculous

I don’t see the point

[pulsar cave]

they should let us buy servers

[kindred galleon]

Xfn4 for vanilla guys

[kindred galleon]

Yeah mate probs but if people would stop making daft little servers to farm in,bf6 should just run some farming lobbies on portal might stop the divvies

Need more vanilla anyway getting a big group into one server is a nightmare

[opaque cairn]

Hardcore mode felt great honestly. Felt like there was more breathing room, everyones not looking at the minimap

[elfin ridge]

like some youtubers they got viewers to host their experience and they're all empty

[lofty latch]

Guys what is fastest way to get 150m sniper headshots challenge complete?

[sour inlet]

Everyone have issue with Challenges ?

[hushed nacelle]

Can i complete challenges on a modified portal?

[opaque cairn]

I think thats a setting in your battlefield 6 options deleted message guy. Turn player created content on. Its under 'System'

[tame wadi]

Yo guys question about XP/Boosters

Let’s say 99% all my weekly challenges, right before completion I activate a 2x token and then complete all the challenges, I get double the rewards?

[queen bramble]

Hi guys, what's the date for season pass ?

[quaint bobcat]

28th this month

[echo salmon]

WHere buy XP boost? 😄

[austere ingot]

There might be a function under the mod object to call. Since ur trying to access code within the game rather than the ts functions.

[rare void]

can't even join the existing portal servers, still get the quota error.. any workarounds?

[cyan oyster]

Cronus zen users being banned! Thank god

[lucid marten]

No unfortunately, the thing is, the example mods (BombSquad/AcePursuit) all have plenty of calls to console.log so the developers used it extensively, but I guess they have tools we can't access so the logging is not functional. Would also be nice if we could see script errors while tryhing out the scripts

[jade hedge]

Some of the small details in this game are just absurd lol a huge water vending machine and it has a huge instruction list on how to fill by the gallon and details about filters and stuff all in high def 🤣

i remember like it was yesterday on cod games you'd go up to anything up close and it's just a blurry squiggle

[warped mason]

how can i fill my own server with more bots? in a conquest 32vs32 mode they only fill up to 24 players and the mode requires 32 to start

[austere ingot]

All these questions could've been avoided with proper documentation.

[opaque cairn]

probably Bot Spawn Type, backfill or static

[austere ingot]

The website for portal tells u more about how to use Godot than anything else, really. When they could've just linked to the docs for the engine for the basics of navigation

[warped mason]

i have it on backfill and they also join but not to 32. i can play breakthrough or rush because at least 23 +1 (me) join to make it start but i cant play conquest with bots because not enough join

[lucid marten]

Yep, it's terrible

[austere ingot]

These are professional devs, how they forget to create documentation for their tools?

[dreamy heron]

🤣🤣🤣 thats awesome

[cyan oyster]

I know I love it!!

Use skill not a plug in that every streamer uses etc. get guud Cronus zen users

[kind thunder]

anybody found a fix yet for the misserable "framtime lag like" issue with the mouse n stuff ? Like iam gettin consitent 180fps, but it feels like iam olaying on 60hz /fps

[cold zealot]

The engineer class assignment isn’t gaining any progress even though I am repairing vehicles… is this happening with anyone else?

[jade hedge]

" In response to players who have rallied around the feeling that earning XP is ridiculously slow in #Battlefield6, EA is shutting down Portal XP-farming servers. "

Via BFBulletin

[little fog]

I feel like all the Portal games so far are really lacking compared to 2042 portal at launch tbh

[clever hazel]

seems about right that actual devs forgot the documentation lol

I'd love to see the code for base conquest gamemode then just edit it to my custom map.

[jade hedge]

well it's completely in the hands of the player. No devs making maps this time. So if it's lacking it's "technically" the player's fault 🤣

[opaque cairn]

The Server browser is worse too

[jade hedge]

But I did hear 2042 portal had some better options outside of just the remade maps

[opaque cairn]

i tried to join 3 shipment maps just to see what a custom map is like. Spawn kill traps, every single one

[jade hedge]

To be fair there's a lot of crazy modes that have been made already. It's just that the average person goes "OMG SHIPMENT LEMME HOST THAT NOW" and it just fills up with shipments and rust

[opaque cairn]

I saw someone code in a fortification system like bf5. It has crazy potential, just swamped with bs

[jade hedge]

3rd person socom mode, space invaders mode, pong mode, crazy horde mode with snakes and electricuting teleporting dudes. BFV fortifcation as you just mentioned. People have already made detailed bridge maps of the manhattan map where you can walk along the bridge with plenty of cover to make it into a rush map. Although still waiting to see a fully fledged rush of that bridge map

[dreamy plover]

I'm new to Portal and godot, but have UE5 and light modding experience.
Im playing around with the SDK and had a few questions.

1. Is there a better source of documentation than this discord?
2. Should I be renaming or saving over the scene (i.e. MP_FireStorm).
3. I've exported my project and can hop in via local host, but I keep falling through the floor at my custom spawn. -Is there a collision setting im missing? (to clarify, trying to spawn on BarrierStoneBlock.

TIA

[jade hedge]

try searching for something you wanna see and keep it to as few words and as straight to the point as possible. That's what I did. I searched bridge and a bunch of bridge maps came up. Most of them didn't place any cover on the mahnattan bridge but some are looking really good so far

[marsh pine]

persistant server is a issue imo

because people just enable it and it just sits empty forever

also that you cant join servers with 0 population

[vagrant hound]

Good morning, does anyone know how I can add a game mode to Portal Godot? I want to add my own map but every time I want to add it to Portal the message “no game mode added” appears.

[opaque stag]

I dont think there is better docs for now.
Plugin seems to only detect scenes with default names, at least for me.
Collisions were fine until I started scaling objects then it is RNG, sometimes it works sometimes I fall through

[dreamy plover]

@opaque stag ahh, that might be it, I scaled the barrier as a "landing pad" for testing.

[gleaming crescent]

Hey guys I have a question. I am editing a map, I have my custom vehicle and team HQ zones set. I exported the map, inside portal I created a custom experience and then imported my exported map file to the correct map selected, yet, when load the custom expereience in game my spawn points are not there, there is just the default one in the center

[opaque stag]

create new project on website, go to map rotation, add map to rotation and add json to it there

[light root]

EA/DICE make an option in portal to just play make ingame settings select mode and some settings like add bots remove them and other basic settings bc i bet those and most persistent servers just to play against bots for a round or 2 that dosnt have to be persistent

[opaque stag]

i had this issue, your object tree in godot can be wrong and plugin exports default settings only

[white furnace]

Is there still a way to host a 32 man breakthrough server with ony 2 real players and the rest bots? I do not mind less xp, just trying to have some fun with a m8.

[opaque stag]

open json to see if your new objects are there

[gleaming crescent]

All of my HQs are under the MP map name....

[light root]

Just add bots and join with you friend its possible

[opaque stag]

did you added something else or only moved positions of HQs?

[white furnace]

Tried it but it's not adding the bots eventho I did activate the backfill.

[gleaming crescent]

I moved the positons of the HQs and added jets, helios, tanks, and IFVs via veh spawners under the HQs

[light root]

When you play alone dose bots show up ?
If not there something missing

[echo hull]

Can someone here please help me?

[wanton kettle]

Bloody fix the portal broswr

[compact thistle]

yes

[sudden grail]

I get an error when trying to host a server in Portal

[little fog]

None of the "Zombie" servers are even zombie/horde/asymmetrical experiences lol

[opaque stag]

is veh spawner parent to map root or maybe to one of HQs? it can be hard to see on object tree, try right click on this veh spawner in tree and find reparent option to attach it to main map root

[gleaming crescent]

Wait a second......Export Current Level is set to MP_Tungste....but I've change it to MP Tungesten Test....That might be the issue

[white furnace]

No, even if I set it to 2 human players it just adds 2 extra bots instead of 30.

[sudden grail]

It says:

"Our game servers are at capacity. We are working to get you back in the game."

[opaque stag]

ahh yes, plugin dont like new names it looks for defaults only

[little fog]

Literally no experience pop up when I check under the "asymmetrical" tag lmao. Is the BF6 portal community just learning the tools slowly or what?

[light root]

Dont limit player count put max so bot fill the other spots just put a password when hosting so no one else can join

[white furnace]

Still giving merssage: 16 players requires and bots are not adding.

[gleaming crescent]

Oh my God. I had the stock scene selected....thats why it exported it

[pulsar fulcrum]

Can we remove the persistent server feature for every ones use. make it a creator tier unlock or something. How are people meant to create experiences, and use the sandbox when servers are always full. And a lot of them are empty as well? It has fantastic potential, but having the persistent server feature available for every one, bottlenecks the experience and progress.

[light root]

Can you share the code of your experience?

[white furnace]

e1w8

[hushed hull]

Does anyone know if there is a write up for what constitutes the "Hardcore" rules? Another cool feature that could be incorporated into Portal is allowing people to start building off of someone else's experience and save as their own. For instance if I could take a hardcore server and save as and make my own tweaks.

Im interested in making a 24/7 hardcore Conquest on Operation Firestorm and Siege of Cairo exclusively.

[weary forum]

so is the fact that all the portal servers are just used for xp farming going to get fixed lol?

[tulip storm]

Is poor quality USG good for dice's brand regarding Experiences?

Portal, one of the greatest tool ever given to a community in gaming history for a given IP. But with all due respect devs, your experiences, are useless to both us the community and you the developer.

They promote SLOP and discourage real creators.

Someone needs to get the ball rolling if you want to solve two problems at once, not kick the can down the road.

You have a chance to make Battlefield customs like Halo Customs, the longer time goes the more likely it is to ruin this opportunity.

[scenic sonnet]

will they ever expand the global game quota ? im waiting 2h to create a game

[light root]

It just add 24 bot

[clever hazel]

getting same error as others. I've added in my custom script with no errors. Successfully publish but it just says action needed and I cannot view my experience in game.

[white furnace]

It did to me as well now and I didn't change anytthing. This is weird, must've been a glitch. Thank you anyway for the quick help 🙂

[jade hedge]

Ziba tower map in progress. BF Portal Hub just posted an EPIC screenshot of it

[neon garnet]

Anyone know how to get console logging output from custom portal mode scripts?

[light root]

Ive been trying to host my server for ages and when i put ur code it work first try xD
Any time i did nothing

[sudden grail]

I had mine empty and persistent, but when I tried to join, I couldn't. So a persistent empty server is not that persistent anyway. It seems that they get shut down.

[echo salmon]

Where i can buy XP boost?

[jade hedge]

Yo the BF Portal Hub has a discord server too and it looks perfect for literally anyone in this server who isn't just here to sit back and watch people make stuff. They have a role for "Develop add ons for gadot", " develop plugins for portal" , "Mutual help on portal" , "playtest experiences". There's a bunch of people in voice chats that seem to be working on maps. That looks like the ultimate server to be in for making stuff in portal

[sudden grail]

there is a toggle for that that set the Hardcore rules by default

[hushed hull]

😮

[night seal]

When are you going to update portal, firstly the bots are veteran class and give us the option menu for bot skill level. Beginner intermediate veteran, the player swap side option pop these are 2 I would like to see but thes many other options that where in 2042 that’s should be in new portal, when are you going to upgrade the server I was under the impression that every player had a persistence server

[vagrant hound]

what should I add?

[sick goblet]

Yo, does anyone know if there a way to just edit an already made conquest game mode? Do i really have to recreate every flag and spawn points for a conquest map?🫩

[gleaming crescent]

Another question. How to get my vehicle spawners to be selected from the spawn screen? Right now they spawn stuff but you can't pick it from the spawn screen. They are under the HQ_Team family as of now

[opaque stag]

.json file from export folder that is created when you click export current level

[native venture]

Why are all the custom servers names in numbers I even looked at ones that haven’t been started like the jet race and it was just a bunch of numbers

[covert junco]

can you host 2 servers in bf6?

[stark marsh]

if i'm running a portal server and i update the gamemode, do i have to takedown the server and re-host or will it just update for the next match?

[vagrant hound]

I've already tried that, when I want to add it to the website there is an error that says no game mode has been added, I just want to know how to add a game mode, preferably Conquest

[opaque stag]

Click on portal website "Create new", then go to "Map rotation" , add for example Empire State to the right side of the list and there will be button to upload .json file to this map

"Import from file" option is used for when you have exported gamemode from website

[hallow hollow]

Any clue if there's a way to kick/ban players from your portal server? Nothing in admin menu or scoreboard

[vagrant hound]

🤦🏻 I'm stupid 😂 I'm sorry now I understand 😅

[gleaming crescent]

Do you know how to make vehicles that are from the spawners selectable?

[vagrant hound]

Another question, how do I add it to the editor?

[opaque cairn]

gosh it really just decides for itself whether its going to update your map or not huh

[opaque cairn]

Its under Squad + players, as if you were changing squads

[opaque stag]

hmm... i dont think currently you can convert it back to editor from .json

[wanton kettle]

Why cant i host my own server???

[round sundial]

all slots used by exp bot lobbies

[clever hazel]

yeah mine just simply does not pickup on the json file I attach

[opaque cairn]

i think everyones publishing their maps, because there's no other way to test it, and its slamming their servers, my best guess

[opaque stag]

no, maybe it needs some scripting

[wanton kettle]

For f sake. The games actually alright when you can remove slidin and all that stuff but cant start a srver

[sharp belfry]

Still a lot more questions than answers in this chat currently, but does anyone know if there is a way to export match data to an external server? Like if you wanted an external server leaderboard l?

[light wolf]

anyone got a host left ? for a experience code

[worthy pulsar]

hows bf6 is it good?

[mighty tundra]

Game good. Portal tools unusable as far as I'm concerned

[opaque cairn]

I think i inverted an objects normals by landing a helicopter on it, fell through it and now its stuck like that

[mighty tundra]

No staff in here either it's just bots deleting links. Can't even link to unofficial docs we've had to write. Discord is in slowdown in an already slow channel

Community seems dope in here though

So ready to go and full of ideas. They don't deserve this love.

[opaque cairn]

there's a better discord for focusing on portal if you want

[mighty tundra]

@opaque cairn yes then it should be pinned in here

Awesome thnks!

[opaque cairn]

not a problem

[austere ingot]

I joined one that was on the remake of Firestorm, it was SUPPOSED to be for practicing flying jets and helis. Turned into a pit where you spawn and unlimited RPG rounds come to meet you.

[round sundial]

ngl, they need to take down these bot lobbys

[austere ingot]

Eventually joined another experience where it was a similar setup but on Liberation Peak. But instead of everyone being whatever class they wanted, everyone was support, and had huge health pools. Turned into a bunch of people chasing each other with melee weapons. Was fun

[ornate monolith]

One way is to immediately undeploy / deploy, but that makes the dead players body disappear immediately. When I was messing with it, I think you can add about a 1 second delay without it showing who killed them. That's just long enough for the death animation and for them to hit the floor

I think I got the camera to just face the body by changing the screen effect immediately after the player dies, I'll get back to you on that.

You could also just straight up block their screen, but I haven't gotten that to work in a way that looks elegant yet. If you can get it to do it correctly, it might be cool to have it black out immediately after you're shot

You can also set the dead players camera to free, then revert it back. 100% works, but I also haven't gotten this to work in a way that looks nice yet

[austere ingot]

I kinda wanna see that made into a game mode. One team just has melee while the other tries to fend off those melee players.

Classic zombie mode from CS basically. It's great fun with Battlefield's sandbox

[finite pawn]

Both methods OnRayCast* have a player as first argument, so I think they are only meant to hit players ? But why would the RayCast methods both have a player and a start argument ? This is unclear

[neat dragon]

My guess was that adding the player as the first argument would make it ignore the player. Otherwise it would hit the player if cast from the player's eye location. But idk man

[neat dragon]

This works for me. It's not optimal but iterating is such a pain :p

export async function OngoingPlayer(player: mod.Player) {
    if (mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateBool.IsFiring)) {
        const eyePosition = mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateVector.EyePosition);
        const facingDirection = mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateVector.GetFacingDirection);

        const startPoint = mod.Add(eyePosition, mod.Multiply(facingDirection, 1));
        const endPoint = mod.Add(eyePosition, mod.Multiply(facingDirection, 50));

        mod.RayCast(player, startPoint, endPoint);

        const msg = mod.Message(mod.stringkeys.slots.secondary_weapon);
        mod.DisplayNotificationMessage(msg);
    }
}

export function OnRayCastHit(player: mod.Player, hitPoint: mod.Vector, hitNormal: mod.Vector) {
    const msg = mod.Message(mod.stringkeys.yay, player)
    mod.DisplayNotificationMessage(msg)

    const randomItem = RuntimeSpawn_Common.CinderblockStack_01_A_60;
    const obj = mod.SpawnObject(randomItem, hitPoint, mod.CreateVector(0, 0, 0));
}

Hey guys, why cant i see the portal experience i create on mobile?

[chrome marten]

what's it called?

[dense wing]

Is the script a must or can i create a game without writing script?

[finite pawn]

Protip that may come obvious to some, the map size seems to have a very big impact on the loading time.
For me my Vehicle Training map on Mirak take like 40s to load, when a basic Siege of Cairo only take 10-15s.
So for tests, that doesn't need your big working map, use a smaller one 🙂

[tame wadi]

I hope one day we can play Paracel storm

[calm flare]

How hard is it to use Portal? I come from Hammer TF2 mapmaking and I want to recreate 2Fort in BF6

[tame wadi]

Try “6gvy” if you wanna practice flying around

[dense wing]

What does "players need to own premium content to play" mean?

[sick sedge]

As it stands currently, it only means you need to own the base game to play. I am assuming you are looking at the map rotation menu

[dense wing]

Yes, and I've done multiple experiences, but when i go in the game none of them shows up, why?

[sick sedge]

that im not sure about. Is your steam account linked to you EA account?

[dense wing]

Im on ps5

[sick sedge]

is your PSN account linked to your EA account?

[dense wing]

I think it is, i have 4 EA accounts, and only one of them have the same name i can read on the screen

So i guess i should use this one, but when i do, nothing

Should i unlink and link it again to another account ? Is it possible ?

[sick sedge]

as I understand it, whichever EA account you are making experiances using must be linked to the PSN/XBOX?Steam account you are playing the game from.

That being said, if your experiance is published there should be a code anyone can use to host your experiance (including whichever PSN account you are playing on)

[fading lily]

Anyone here who got a code or the code-block version of a script which instantly deploys players and put them equally into 2 teams?

im stuck in the deploy screen everytime and I dont know how to fix it

[sick sedge]

I dont have exactly this, but I can help you later this evening if you ping me in about 6 hours

[fading lily]

6 hours doesnt work in my timezone unfortunately. But still thanks for the offer

[versed cedar]

Sorry man, I was out, I saw your question in my noti, but I can't find the original message, but no I haven't played with the ray cast API yet. But if you want more info have a look at the bfportal.gg discord. There's some really smart folks in there doing a lot of great work. I did see some people playing around with it earlier

[dense wing]

I checked, and they say its,not linked

[dense wing]

Okay, i linked it, but while creating an experience do i have to put rules blocks and scripts? Or its optional?

[sick sedge]

optional as far as I am aware

[dense wing]

Do i have to puvlish them or just creating them is enought?

[sick sedge]

Here's some quick pseudo code (powershell-ish) that demonstrates simple logic to accomplish this

$team:team_1_players = []
$team:team_2_players = []
$global:last_team_to_get_players = 2
$global:total_palyers = 32

onplayerjoinedserver (){
    if ($global:last_team_to_get_players -eq 2)
    {
        $global:last_team_to_get_players = 1
        set-team -player $eventplayer -team $team_1
    }
    elseif ($global:last_team_to_get_players -eq 1)
    {
        $global:last_team_to_get_players = 2
        set-team -player $eventplayer -team $team_2
    }
}

you'll have to convert that into the blocky code or whatever its called

[dense wing]

Is i unlink them, do i loosethe game? Thats what they say

[jade hedge]

Yoooo someone is in progress making grand bazaar and it's looking goooood!

[dense wing]

Will i still be considered as the owner of the game?

[sick sedge]

Publish allows non-linked accounts to use the experiance via the code. Just saved will require that your accounts are linked. Thats how I understand it

[dense wing]

Andfor the accound? Because,i think there actually is a bug, but im scared to not be considered as the owner if i unlink

[young crown]

Anyone know how to add gamemodes to the maps?

[worldly cairn]

I love how Portal has been at capacity since day 1

[hazy dirge]

yeah, they seriously need to crack down on these bot servers.

[sick sedge]

Portal is at capacity with thousands of empty vanilla servers. No love for the trailblazers!

[hazy dirge]

And they need to shut down persistent servers that have 0 players for more than a few hours

[stray ravine]

Anyone able to help with the Portal tool? I've exported it, but when I import it says i have not selected a game mode. Says the same thing even if I do select a game mode

[young crown]

Same issue im having

[azure jolt]

welp can't even make a portal server at all thanks to all these Empty persistent server's. points to the countless empty farm servers left on persistent :/

[stray ravine]

Just wanted to make a brooklyn bridge fight map 😢

[hazy dirge]

yup

[young crown]

Ive made my map just cant upload due to the error for no gametype 😂

[stray ravine]

Same here lad

[unreal lake]

Just asking, there a bug for servers not displaying? Just asking been hosting for 24hours and 0 players have joined (besides me) and friends cant even join o.O

[young crown]

Ive been on it for hours and gave up for now, going to try making a new map but very basic tomorrow see what happens

[unreal lake]

Been trying every way possible and so far everyone i came across told me my server is just non-existing even tho they search with code, the server name everything 0 hits of my server

[stray ravine]

If you some how figure it out, pls hmu and I'll do the same 🙏

[neat dragon]

Thanks for the reply! I deleted the message because I figured it out! :) This works for me. It's not optimal but iterating is such a pain

export async function OngoingPlayer(player: mod.Player) {
    if (mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateBool.IsFiring)) {
        const eyePosition = mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateVector.EyePosition);
        const facingDirection = mod.GetSoldierState(player, SoldierStateVector.GetFacingDirection);

        const startPoint = mod.Add(eyePosition, mod.Multiply(facingDirection, 0));
        const endPoint = mod.Add(eyePosition, mod.Multiply(facingDirection, 50));

        mod.RayCast(player, startPoint, endPoint);
    }
}

export function OnRayCastHit(player: mod.Player, hitPoint: mod.Vector, hitNormal: mod.Vector) {
    const msg = mod.Message(mod.stringkeys.yay, player)
    mod.DisplayNotificationMessage(msg)

    const randomItem = RuntimeSpawn_Common.CinderblockStack_01_A_60;
    const obj = mod.SpawnObject(randomItem, hitPoint, mod.CreateVector(0, 0, 0));
}

[versed cedar]

Ah nice! But it the ray cast hits something doesn't that mean it'll only spawn something when you look at a wall? 😛

[neat dragon]

Yes! I wanted to spawn objects where the player shoots :) There is also a raycast missed event so I could shoot and spawn stuff mid-air

[outer bramble]

Apologies for just repeating a question, but has anyone heard about a fix/them fixing the "Unable to create Experience. gRPC message exceeds maximum size 4194304: 189850090" error when trying to save an experience? I just want to test my maps, unless theres an alternate way of testing them I am unaware of.

[versed cedar]

Ah okay yeah just checking ^^ I do still recommend checking out the other discord btw, it's unofficial but there's ea/ripple effect people in there as well

[neat dragon]

Check if your JSON file is like 100 Megabytes or something. If so, you need to make sure to delete the navmesh you created for the terrain

[outer bramble]

oh! i will check that, thank you!

[neat dragon]

Can you send me a link to it? I haven't seen that!

[versed cedar]

Sent you a dm with a link to the site

[versed talon]

You need to create a new Portal Game first (conquest, rush, custom...) on the Portal website. When selecting the map rotation, chose the map you edited and drag it into the Rotation window on the right. Then in the right window klick on the map and import your edited map. Thats all

[unreal lake]

Im trying to host my verified servers xD yet I cant get it to be searchable even tho im playing in it

Can't test a server for friends so we can fight each other if they cannot join in the first place right?

Tried the code, tried actual server search, tried to rejoin even tho i have server keeps going when I leave and even I!! Can't join back in my server

[red marsh]

Wouldn't be suprised if this mode gets a samurai map with samurai weapons next 😂

[stray ravine]

Tried that, but when I drag and drop the json file in, it just opens in a seperate tab

[versed talon]

You clicked on the map on the import Button and chose the map in the export folder?

[prisma tendon]

is there a web page that lists out all of the asset libraries, including search filters for which assets are destructable?

[outer bramble]

The upload worked, thanks for that! Now after saving its not showing in My Experiences. Does it take some time to show up? Im on Steam, my EA account is for sure linked I've triple checked.

[lofty fox]

I sent you a DM request

[unreal lake]

Takes like between 30seconds to an hour depending on peak hours

[versed cedar]

Thanks for pinging me here ^^ message requests don't send me a noti

[outer bramble]

Ah okay, good to know! Thanks

[unreal lake]

Problem is im facing is server hosting dont show up xD how can I test it with people if server is unsearchable im forced to use bots to test anything problem is bots fail to use 1 tank they sit in it and never exist the seats

That and bots on turrets are way too OP im taking can hit you across the map through cover like jeez

[torn smelt]

Hello, I'm starting to get interested in Portal. Which is better — blocks or scripts? Can scripts do more than blocks, or are they just another way to create mods without offering any real advantages?

[stray ravine]

can I DM you?

[versed talon]

Sure

[unreal lake]

Far as im aware all portals are single player until they fix the servers not being searched issue, not even sure how 20 people managed to get their servers to work

[umbral nexus]

Where should i inv people for battlefield 6 squad up?

[slow cliff]

How do I complete heal teammates for health challenge

[unreal lake]

Think you both posted in wrong place

[umbral nexus]

can you direct me? I apologize.

[slow cliff]

Where

[unreal lake]

@umbral nexus Squad is in lfg, @slow cliff go to bf6? This is for portal ^^

[umbral nexus]

@unreal lake Thank you so much!!

[flint raven]

i am getting a no game mode set error when uploading the map is there any fix for this?

[versed cedar]

As of right now, as far as I know the blocks, in the backend, build scripts. You can transform blocks into scripts.

So technically speaking the choice doesn't matter too much. Having said that, as a developer, I would say that learning to code typescript is not only fun, it allows you a little bit more freedom in how you approach things and if you know how to code, you could even see it as a step up to something more than a hobby. So I'd vote for coding.

But either way you go, you'll have a learning curve if you come in from 0

[unreal lake]

Very true, I dabbed in coding a bit, but not knowing anything ooh boy is there gonna be a curve lol fun none the less mostly when you get to see your creation come to life

[versed cedar]

I don't know if this is allowed here, but I wrote a getting started with scripting in the portal sdk document for the bfportal.gg community that you can find here. It should give you all the resources you need to get a bit of an idea on what is what.

https://github.com/battlefield-portal-community/PortalScriptingExamples/blob/main/Guides/the-basics-of-programming-in-the-portal-sdk/readme.md

[unreal lake]

i would love to upload a photo but anyone else know how to get past the global game quota exceeded bug?

[rotund latch]

so, tell me what is up with choppers not spawning and no joystick support, i know tthe answers are laziness, amateurism and catering to scrubs

[gritty elm]

Anytime I pull up a BF6 level in the Godot Engine the textures are all torn and stretched. Anyone got any idea why this is happening?

[compact siren]

Something is strange. When I host a portal server with bots backfilling with a password and after a few minutes I want my friend to join the server, he can't join, when we are both in a party, because he gets an error message on the bottom right. Same happens to me, if he hosts a server. If we both are not in a party, he can join the server, but he will get put in the opposite team of mine and there is no way of me to dragging him to my team. Does anyone have this issue aswell? Error message: 87003S-19140846890

[azure jolt]

Yep having that issue as well.

[unreal lake]

issue i been having and every person i know doing portal xD yet 20 people managed to do it? how? idk...but wish we had some type of person giving some type of info as to is it being fixed? are they doing something? something

[compact siren]

I have no idea how to fix it. Maybe it has to do with the password protection, I don't know, cause I only tried it with a password protected server.

[unreal lake]

problem is password protected servers are not searchable as far as im seeing, i tried so many times only servers that pop up are not protected x.x

[compact siren]

Actually my friend was able to find my password protected server. When we are not in a party, he can join, but he gets put in the oppisite team and I can’t put him in my team. When we are both in a party tho, he gets the error message above.

[slate haven]

what can't I play any portal game??? (not a full server thing just doesn't work

[eager atlas]

pfff nope still nothing as of now

I can't see if bots even work on anything besides just a standard portal experience I made to see what it has

[true hedge]

Anyone know how to setup Paths so they walk around?

[dusk dew]

Portal code X, Portal BOT server X!!!!!

Please get rid of the portal code. Please get rid of the portal bot, the experience server. Battlefield developers, is this the experience you're talking about in the mode of portal?

Please don't forget the Battlefield 2042 portal. Unable to create server

[outer bramble]

Hey all i messaged earlier about accessing my custom map in My Experiences. I successfully saved the map and its listed on the Portal website, but its been nearly 2 hours and it still isnt present in My Experiences in the game. I am on steam and have confirmed that the account is linked correctly to EA.

[gritty elm]

I had to wait a whole day for my first one to pop up, on the website when you make the experience it show that its pending review or not you could check that, I tried making a new one on the second day and it showed up instantly so I don't really know whats up with it

[outer bramble]

Do you have to publish it? Im just saving and trying to access it privately without publishing yet

[pallid gorge]

It goess into Pending. Mine took 24 hours

[gritty elm]

Idk i'd publish it to be safe. I published mine

[pallid gorge]

Portal is a little scuffed anyway right now. Like 1k+ Ace Pursuits.

[gritty elm]

It really is tho, they need to fix the spawn in camera angle and HQ bug

[outer bramble]

Appreciate the advice. Yeah the amount of flight practice maps without vehicles is crazy too.

[outer bramble]

Pretty sure with that you need to add spawn camera in Godot, but idk since i cant test lol

[dawn void]

HELP have abnormal horizontal sensitivity in bf6

[true hedge]

How does pathing work for AI on custom maps? I can't get my AI to move from spawn. Created Waypoint Paths and 3 nodes into the Curve, but they don't move.

[dawn void]

it is really high and I had already try many way but all of them failed

can anyone please help me with it

[gritty elm]

Everytime I load up a level in Godot from BF all the textures are all torn and stretched out so i can't see anything and idk how to fix it

[hearty oriole]

TFA Hardcore Conquest server is up and running NO BOTS!

[celest phoenix]

Hi looking for some help please with a portal server I was hosting on BF6

[weary ruin]

How to get the full map and not the glicted weird map for firestorm if I’m making a custom thing, also static bots are not static?

[hearty geyser]

I got the Portal SDK downloaded and not rendering the maps properly what's up with that?

like polygons just stretched all over and is just a mess

[sonic willow]

"Global Game Quota Exceeded". Been trying for hours :[ The capacity really can't be too high, can it? Edit: or just let me host non-custom setups locally

[lyric aurora]

We need a way to save or favorite the browsers we find!

[kindred nova]

It’s not a bug it’s a feature.

No textures and the lowest LOD model

[teal marsh]

I keep getting a "finihed with 1 error" in the browser followed by "Action needed" but no.. actual info on what went wrong.. I'm just adding stuff to firestorm, no scripting.

[weary ruin]

Does anyone know why when I try to make a custom Firestorm map it keeps bugging out the map and spawning both teams right next to eachother

[teal marsh]

The default setup in portal has both teams next to eachother and no default vehicles like most of the game's base modes.

[weary ruin]

Is there a way to change that?

[proper drift]

having a slightly strange issue. i have the spawns correct but i made the combat zone collision box way bigger to allow me to use the whole map but when i spawn in the corner of the map as soon as i leave the HQ zone i am "out of the combat zone"

[teal marsh]

In the browser I think you need to tick the "include default spacial data"

[hearty geyser]

Yeah I noticed I changed the rendering to compatability and now it's actually rendering

[teal marsh]

I wish we could disable parachutes

[hearty geyser]

or have them just be single use

[lyric aurora]

I mean you can disable auto deploy parachutes

[teal marsh]

I need to turn it off completely
it's not about autodeploy or not, it just needs to be off.

or I need to make a kill barrier

[lyric aurora]

hmm since there s no mutator that does this... maybe you can find a workaround, what are you trying to create?

[lyric aurora]

you can do that in the SDK

[proper drift]

https://ibb.co/pr4K5Cc2 you can see the boundaries are correct but i still get out of bounds after i leave HQ

[lyric aurora]

can you show the nodes?

[past roost]

So how can we take our custom experience and set the game TPYE like conquest/TDM/etc?

[teal marsh]

yeah but I'm already hitting the entity limit lmao

I'm making a small gunfight arena with nothing but destructible barrels.

At some point players fall out but it needs to kill them

[proper drift]

me? which nodes?

[lyric aurora]

in the left side of the screen you have your 3d nodes

[knotty ore]

okay maybe im just stupid, but is there no way for a custom portal experience to have more than 32 players?

[weary ruin]

where can i go to find pre made maps if any that i can just import

[knotty ore]

like, the maps from in the game? those are in the SDK

[proper drift]

yeah. https://ibb.co/VpQVq7ct

[weary ruin]

maybe i am dumb but when i launch the sdk i dont get the prompt for the portal thats supposadely on the right side of the screen to start doing things

[pulsar pine]

welp its monday and no 12 exp boosts

[lyric aurora]

probably because you made the hq a parent node to the collision polygon

[knotty ore]

did you import the Portal asset folder?

[proper drift]

https://ibb.co/vvfBTjLh they are seperate nodes

[weary ruin]

do i do that in the thing or somewhere else

[proper drift]

@lyric aurora The combat area nodes are seperate

[lyric aurora]

check if they work now

[knotty ore]

open godot, when it allows you to start a new project, instead move the "GodotProject" folder into the screen. Should allow you to open a project named "Battlefield 6 portal" or smth like that. inside of THAT project, is where you find that button

[proper drift]

okay exporting.. one sec.

@lyric aurora yeah still only allowing me to stand in the hq collision squares.

[fathom anvil]

I feel like this Discord would benefit from sub-categories of Portal (i.e. finished experiences, community build type open project, etc)

Is there a better way of finding experiences finished besides in-game?

[past roost]

OR AN API/SDK for web people so we can build stuff to find them

[atomic pulsar]

I'm having a really hard time joining a portal server it just says "purchase" and when I select it nothing happens

[fathom anvil]

You're smarter than me. That sounds like it'd be such a great driver for community 🤘

[tawny nova]

GLOBAL QUOTA EXCEEDED AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[weary ruin]

So I’ve loaded a scene but all I can see is the axis arrows

[rose quiver]

Is max bots 47? Cant get 63 on conquest?

[teal marsh]

How can I create a death barrier?

[outer bramble]

did you load the map using Scene>Load Scene in Godot, then selecting the MP_[level] via [sdk_install]>GodotProject>levels? You start there and then SaveAs and change the name of the level. The maps in the levels folder are suppose to be templates you work from

[outer bramble]

I too am running into this snag

[shrewd phoenix]

Hi, everyone, is there a fix for the DirectX crashes?

[mild sedge]

Do backfill that might fix it

[dusk dew]

Just get rid of the portal host code

[atomic star]

make sure that the combat zone collision box is encompassing ur play area and not floating

[dusk dew]

Replicating the server is overloading.

[outer bramble]

by default it was floating, so it has to be touching the lowest point in the map?

[dusk dew]

Is the experience that Battlefield operators say is an experience server and a bot server?

[atomic star]

yeah so if ur not in that area then it will be countred as out of bounds so just select the collision mesh and move it down

[outer bramble]

okay ill do that, hopefully that fixes. thanks!

[dusk dew]

Get rid of tokens too Is this Call of Duty?

[icy flame]

I used GODOT to deploy the AI 1000 meters away. After entering the game, I found that I couldn't see the AI—I had to get closer to see it. If I redeploy , I can see it for a while, but then it disappears again after some time. Anyone knows what's the issue here?

[fossil arch]

Is there any way to make a Breakthrough, Conquest or Escalation gamemode with bots that can be hosted locally? I want to play bot games locally but it keeps telling me that local hosting is only for custom experiences

[vagrant silo]

Anyone know where the xp boosters for the failedEA launcher will be happening ?

[frosty wraith]

is it possible to use portal mode to get squad deathmatch wins for that skin? I don't like putting my balls in a vice for that gamemode

[west tiger]

Excuse me, i wanted to getting started on the SDK provided, and after following the documentation, my interface is nowhere the same as in the trailers, the meshes (?) looks funny, I cant see the items, what do I miss on the setup to have a properview of the levels I loaded ?
Thanks in advance

[outer bramble]

unfortunately that did not fix the issue. as soon as i leave hq it says out of bounds. nodes are just below the map

[mighty forge]

Join the discord at bfportal.gg 👀 unofficial yes but a strong community

[raven bronze]

so... anyone else unable to even spool up a 'Portal' server?

me an a few others wanted to practice stuff, on the 11th we could, but since then nadda

[serene cave]

ya ever since the 12th can't startup a portal server ... period just get endless quota exceeded errors

[cloud pike]

what is a smoke assist?

[spring ivy]

have they removed the server browser?

oh theyve moved it under community

[lofty wave]

Hey guys, for the devs out there.

Do you know where all the exports we are overriding are located ? I'd like to find the list and even if possible some source code.

The idea is to analyze what's possible or not to do, example, hiding the entire selection UI that always start when join a game.

This little guy allows me to override what happens after, but still the UI pops up. Any one dived into this ?

export function OnPlayerJoinGame(player: mod.Player): void

[raven bronze]

like, our crew would have no problem hosting our own personal server (outside of EA or whereever), but we dont even get that as an option... So sadly, we only get the "Global Game Quota Exceeded [9:147002S:-17461111930]" even not 'checking' "Persistent Server" is the same

[proper drift]

It seems like the only solution ive gotten to work to at least test stuff is to just make the HQ collision box the size of the map lmfao

[mild sedge]

You’re probably starting the server at high demand time frame

[raven bronze]

for the past 3, almost 4 days straight, at different time frames throughout the day?

For a AAA game, that touted "Portal!!!" as part of the game..

and we are not even past a week from launch

[mild sedge]

Well you have to realize there’s roughly 3 - 5 million people playing so they probably hit a capacity

[raven bronze]

...... how long has EA made battlefield games and knows the number of players, that is NOT a valid excuse

[mild sedge]

I assume within the Season 1 release a lot the minor/major issues will be fixed

[mild sedge]

Well, portal isn’t the only thing being focused on but give them a bit I bet they’re working overtime rn

[outer bramble]

there has to be something we are missing here lol

[serene cave]

This is a fair assessment; but the feature is essentially broken depending on the mode you run, if you try to run a precanned mode Conquest, Breakthrough, Rush and even some custom modes it just fails entirely.

[mild sedge]

Indeed, but from a normal perspective if a game recently released you’ll need to wait a little for them to fix most the broken things

[serene cave]

Normally I'd agree -- but we're talking about a basic feature they touted and hyped.

[mild sedge]

They planned on pushing a major fix on the 23rd as well as the Season 1 release on the 28th

[serene cave]

I don't intend to argue on such things, and I'm sure they have a metric ton of other bugs/tweaks/etc to accomplish and are definitely working OT right now...having a feature that is almost entirely unusuable? 11 days is a long time to address or even acknowledge the problem.

[raven bronze]

This is a basic FEATURE they shouted from the mountaintops and hyped, which worked for 2 days. but now those who use Portal will need to wait 2 1/2 weeks for it to be "fixed" allegedly. I have seen zero official acknowledgement from anywhere about the "Global Game Quota Exceeded [9:147002S:-17461111930]". Otherwise I wouldn't be salty as I have only so much time off/after work. BUT at least there was acknowledgement about the "jump momentum" and more minor things.

[atomic star]

can you send a screenshot of what ur working on?

[raven bronze]

Like, we dont mind playing the multiplayer, but sometimes we and the mates want to just chill and practice different things or modes in Portal after a long day at work, so we are a bit salty when we want to chill in different 'Portal' modes/creations and thing THIS happens 🤷‍♂️

[outer bramble]

https://imgur.com/a/NTIAn1G

its nothing even special lol just firestorm with practically default borders, had to move hqs though

https://imgur.com/a/uWDMsfs
this you can see the combat zone and 1 hq border

other discord suggested the orange box is combat zone but im skeptical

[pulsar hedge]

Are the bots cooperating with conquest yet? Lol

[oblique geyser]

two guns to level 50.. only 39 left to go (for now)

[lavish ermine]

Is there any way to save an experience that somebody created that and or follow them so you don't have to keep pushing in the code?

[proper drift]

So is it because the HQ's are too close together?

[outer bramble]

i moved the hq's to opposing sides of the map, as they should be

[proper drift]

and you can leave the hq zone now?

[outer bramble]

basically recreated standard conquest firestorm, and no i cannot leave hq

[prisma tendon]

asking again: anyone know of a web based gui that shows all of the assets in godot including filters like destuctable assets? having to click on each one just to show them in the window and view them is not ideal

[proper drift]

lol we gotta figure somthing out for that lol. cause as of now i can make the HQ bounds past the edge of the map and i can walk wherever in THOSE bounds

[foggy plank]

has anyone figured out how to logs out of mods? or be able live debug? (pray)

[tepid aurora]

do i need to learn GD script for Battlefield 6's portal mode?

[proper drift]

no its typescript @tepid aurora

[outer bramble]

are you looking in the object library at the bottom of the editor? it has icons

[spring ivy]

whats the limitations with portal with scripting?

[tepid aurora]

ahhh ok

btw just asking for my console friend you cant edit portal experiences on console?

[prisma tendon]

i am i think. its the tree of items right? theyre all just the same generic icon

[spring ivy]

can you create a whole new game mode with new ui? say you wanted to create a a battle royale (i know one is coming, just wondering) with a full feature set

[foggy plank]

@spring ivy from looking so far i believe its possible

[tepid aurora]

ngl i really wanna remake Rebirth Island and resurgence mode would be epic as hell

[outer bramble]

theres the menu on the left, but at the very bottom under the output console theres a tab for object library, i search items there

[spring ivy]

nice

[merry carbon]

is there a way to download other peoples game modes and build on top of them>

OH TY

[proper drift]

not sure, but can we stretch an object without stretching the texture?, maintaining the tiling?

resolution scaling i believe its called?

[tulip storm]

are servers still broken? Any updates from dice?

[upper swallow]

90% of the Breakthrough servers up in portal right now are running the exact same experience, with only one map Manhattan Bridge. Most of the others are hardcore. I can't put my own server up, it says Global game quota exceeded. It also gives that error if I try to join an already existing empty server.

[spring ivy]

guess well have to wait until the hype dies down a bit

i want to make a ctf mode, like it was in bf3

[upper swallow]

Or they need to increase server capacity. This didn't even start happening until Saturday night. They had to anticipate high usage. They told us servers wouldn't be an issue

[spring ivy]

id guess they were more interested in the core multiplayer first

player base dies down, more server capacity for portal. but yeh, more servers better:D

[tulip storm]

Its so frustrating. ive been trying since day 1 no avail. I just want for people to come test my castle wars map RIP

oh well, it will get fixed one way or another, eventually...

[lofty socket]

Anyone else's game imediatly crashes to desktop when they try to join a squad in game?

[upper swallow]

I wish I had left my server up initially. Unfortunately I messed up one of the settings and had to take it down to change them, then I decided to switch it to Rush. Should have just left it on Breakthrough I guess.

[stuck knoll]

i love lagging exlusively when i join a friend.. i love having constant lag for hours on end..its so fun..im having so much fun

fuck this game.

[night seal]

I really can’t believe in the time it took to tweek a few setting on a persistence server then delete and republish id lost my spot

[stuck knoll]

im gonna kms

[atomic pulsar]

struggling to host anything cause of the max server limit

[sharp pulsar]

is the only way to test anything to export to portal website and publish?

[unreal lake]

what exp farm?

its multiplayer with bots xD what exp farm, you cannot be on 1 team against bots because someone forgot to add "Swap teams" because you know why add that feature

also how do you swap server regions? let me guess another feature they forgot to add too xD

not gonna lie, my favorite experience of portal is pressing host until something happens very peak experience

[fossil arch]

This is why I was annoyed pre-release with people saying everything can be solved via Portal lol. I saw this coming miles away.

How can portal solve anything when you cant even host a server as you want.

[dusk dew]

One thing I'm sure is that the bot server we've created now is in a mode that doesn't match the developer's intentions

[unreal lake]

i had to shut my server down cuz of the LAG i got having a japense server

[fossil arch]

You can try hosting locally, if you're making a custom experience. no lag as it runs on your own PC.

[unreal lake]

4th try now, so far nothing good ping wise, first server, German, 2nd spanish, 3rd was was oceania server, last was japan, like good lord where is north america xD

can't host locally sadly its a verified server option is grayed out

[proven lagoon]

Anyone had any luck adding custom capture points in Portal? I can't see to make them work for the life of me, neither with scripts nor GODOT editing.

[gusty tusk]

So I signed in to my EA account, that IS linked with steam, to the portal hub online and made my gamemode but it says I have to buy the game despite having it bought (on steam)

[opal elm]

dice add more portal server slots and my soul is yours.

[opal elm]

do you still have the open beta installed?

also never buy the game through EA. always get it on steam if you can.

[gusty tusk]

I uninstalled the open beta but may have left over files. Of course, I bought it through steam, but thats the issue as it wont let me host a portal server because "I dont have the game"

[opal elm]

hmmmmmm...that is weird. and your positive your signed in on the right account? not game sharing or anything?

[gusty tusk]

nope! Nothing I am aware of, don't do any game sharing

[opal elm]

that is really funky

to bhe honest though i wouldnt worry to much on it. you cant even host your own portal server right now anyway.

anytime you do it just tells you they are at capacity.

[gusty tusk]

Was hoping to host locally to test

[opal elm]

cant even do that lol. the local host button dosent work for me. like its greyed out

[atomic mortar]

anyone know why my upload keeps saying no game mode defined? i set rush in the godot as a node in game and it wont load

[fossil arch]

Local host only works for custom experiences. For the normal modes, you can only do the usual host.

[sharp pulsar]

wait ong? am i blind or what bc i couldnt see where

[fossil arch]

I didnt know about this too until someone told me lmao.

But yes you can only locally host custom modes. The modes like Breakthrough, Conquest and Escalation cannot be hosted locally. But pretty much everything else can be.

[opal elm]

yeah but no XP gains so.

[rich basin]

What's the point of even playing normal mode when you can just grind bot lobbies .....

[lyric aurora]

Well, if they would host, yeah.
lol.
Clicks host again for the 200th time

[opal elm]

currently trying to do that XD

[opal elm]

been sat here spaming it for 30 minutes. trying to get a lobby up

[lyric aurora]

My portal all changed to numbers so I took my server down and usually I could slam join and it would work.
But host is near damn impossible

[opal elm]

yeha they need to add more portal server slots. its kinda insnae hyping it up only to be able to have a max of like...100 servers

[lyric aurora]

I'm not holding my breath, I just know this game's potential hasn't even been unleashed yet.
I like what they're cookin', just let me have MY OWN experience.
..... please......
Clicks again

[elder olive]

any word on a fix for the not being able to connect to passworded servers ?

[opal elm]

nope.

[west egret]

Ahh so there is a bug on connecting to passworded servers? That explains why my friends could not join my portal game unless they were in the party when I launched the portal game.

bugger this global serves full BS .. I am going to go play helldivers.

[unreal lake]

i couldn't even bring my friends into the portal servers so not even sure if password works too

[lunar iris]

Why bot don't use any vehicle?

[opal elm]

dude they gotta fix this portal BS.

Half of the servers that are up are "not found" despite them being there. on the roster. and taking up a slot. its driving me crazy

[fiery scarab]

Can't create any portals because it keeps saying global quota exceeded wth

[proper drift]

is there anyway to make normally destructable assets indesctructable?

[jade quarry]

server capacity limit.

[fiery scarab]

so what should I do? Keep spamming until it gets hosted?

[jade quarry]

that's the only thing you can do.

[fiery scarab]

Gotcha. Thank you will keep trying

[south mist]

Likely due to the thousands of bot farm servers

[kindred jay]

im trying to make a mode in portal and it will not fill with bots. is that a current issue?

[misty bluff]

so did anyone manage to make achivment huntin server yet?>

[last pewter]

when update

[lunar bluff]

Did anyone find out how to make spawn points for team 3 or 4? When I duplicate and change spawn's team assignment and test it with bots, I can't make it work for more than 2 teams

[wise warren]

72hours later and we are still not possible to get a server up and running... terrible communication from ea side. Is there anyone who can adress this issue or at least let us know a timespan of when we are gonna be able to start running our own servers. "I pressed the host butten 50 f*cking times" (max verstappen voice if you know 😅😊)

The only thing you can do is rush with 24 bots i think

There is a certain amount it will let you in but im not sure what is is. Got it to work now....let me check

Yeah, if you put 16human players with bots backfill on rush, it will fill. And start a game

[lunar bluff]

What map did you try?

[wise warren]

If you go over the amount of 16, it will not start

Siege of Cairo was the first , but im sure the rest will start also

[lunar bluff]

Liberation Peak seems to be bbugged for me and i cant run it anyhow

[wise warren]

Ee9k is my experience code

So for anyone who want to play against bots (ee9k) the rounds go super fast tho beacause the ai Just keeps planting the bomb. But depending on the maps. You can vet around 50kills per match

[lunar bluff]

let me try

both work for me like a charm that's champ info thanks! Where did u see that? Any chance you know how to make more then 2 teams work?

[quasi dagger]

can anyone gift me the game

[void iris]

They need to get rid of the garbo portal servers people are putting up

[jade quarry]

have you enabled bots?

[kindred jay]

yeah they set to backfill. i only get like 6 bots and then it stops\

[jade quarry]

is it on a custom map?

[kindred jay]

no its pretty much a regular game

[lunar bluff]

I finally made it, 4 teams (1 player) so it's basically Deathmatch

[lyric aurora]

Not true at all

[opal elm]

it is. https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/1o5zgg9/battlefield_6_is_now_banning_cronus_zen_users

[lyric aurora]

Its been edited lol anyone can edit a pic

Plus ive talked to the owners at cronus and its not true

[hoary rock]

I believe the bans but that pic is fake af

[opal elm]

brother its not up to cronus who gets banned lmao

if EA wants to ban you for cronus thats EA's choice.

[lyric aurora]

They cant detect cronus, dummy, the owners have been testing it themselves and they havent been banned lmao enough said

[opal elm]

cant be ditected directly but can be detected through behaviour of players brother. ergo. detectable.

[lyric aurora]

Cronus aren't detectable, if they were COD and other big games would have done something by now lol

[opal elm]

dude i literlary just said its not detectable directly. However can be detected through player actions. and irregular behaviour that may be use of a cronus

its why microsoft was banning it for a while. while seige bans it and so on.

[foggy plank]

its okay let them believe that, wait for the ban wave. it will be the best.

[opal elm]

probably not the smartest thing to admit to on a public server

[hoary rock]

Cronus users aren’t the brightest 🥀

[foggy plank]

i bet their discord is connected to their ea account hint hint admins

[lyric aurora]

Nope

[latent crater]

Where can I find the instructions on the PortalSDK, I'm trying to give the player the Ability to choose a vihicle on the DeployCam, but I can't do it.

[opal elm]

you can find the instructions on yourtube. a guy does a good indepth video on it

[latent crater]

There are only basic things like moving the camera and arranging objects in godot

[hoary rock]

His EA might not be connected but his GT is Exultah 🙂

I can see why he uses a Cronus, he’s buns 🥀

[daring elm]

Hello anyone in here?

[lyric aurora]

wrong GT but ok

[daring elm]

Or portal disabled atm?

[hoary rock]

You two just twin pfps for fun then? regardless, you admit to Cronus, you’re buns

[lyric aurora]

cope elsewhere while im having fun ❤️

[hoary rock]

Yeah I bet you can’t have fun without a Cronus cause you’re buns

Dw Exultah we see you

[lyric aurora]

let me know what my real GT is instead of putting someone elses Discord name < 3

[hoary rock]

Isn’t that crazy that Exultah just went private on Xbox after being called out, how very interesting

[lyric aurora]

im in a game but okay LOL love to know how i did that lmao

we have a stalker in here ew ped0 much

[uncut wave]

😐 this ain't the channel for this

[regal geyser]

Can we please have a way to buy a server?

[storm dirge]

fix your effing servers EA

[hoary rock]

And here’s your tweet showing Exultah in the killfeed under Toasties__ handle, gn bozo Cronus user we love an embed fail

[lyric aurora]

lmaooooo wrong twitter, not mine

[hoary rock]

https://x.com/toasties___/status/1932868448847073757?s=46

[lyric aurora]

lmao nope, bro is desperate as hell

[shy quartz]

Is there any way to host a server?
Whenever I try, it gives an error.

[regal geyser]

It is impossible to host.

[uncut wave]

Unless your working on your own portal mode, but I believe that's restricted to Lan

[shy quartz]

Even with my own experience it wont let me.

[uncut wave]

🤔 that's odd, I'd look but I won't be at my pc for a few hours

[lyric aurora]

it says server capacity error

[uncut wave]

Currently putting a crack team of Papi's together, so we can try something for portal that pushes the boat out

[shy quartz]

But its not a custom experience, its based on normal gamemode. So local is not considerable. But anyway, it will always go to an error.

[uncut wave]

Yeah there's only so many servers tbh they can host, id imagine there looking at expanding but doing so can take a while, especially if your team is building servers to a specific spec and not just receiving pre built racks

But even pre built racks need some manual labour

[lyric aurora]

probably has to do with cunts hosting persistent server so its up even when they're not playing

[sonic idol]

Agree the persistent servers shouldn't really be a thing, so many empty ones that no one wanna play

[lime compass]

let us local host verified game modes no ? i don't see the issue i yust wanna play around with rush a little bit

[latent crater]

why do you need a portal server based on normal gamemode?

[past forum]

So still at capacity? Gotcha

[latent crater]

If someone needs a testing range, I have created a map for testing all vehicles. It can be run locally.
Experience Code: f346

[frail inlet]

Hey EA, don’t want to spend money on servers for portal. Let us handle it and allow dedicated server hosting.

Pretty please💔

[lone ridge]

How did you get your spawns to work? Mine keeps dropping into the middle of the map and none of my vehicles spawn

[azure tide]

does anyone know how to place building prefabs without invisible walls at the top?

[static zephyr]

Had same issue at weekend. If you are kicked, as party leader, you can get back in via search, filter password on, find your game. But friends can't, they can search and find game, but get error message where it should ask for password, so you have to leave game, then go back in and they will be dragged in with you.

[urban geyser]

fix the jets and increase their health this time. BF6 has become like GTA V - the aircraft physics need to be reconsidered. Don't let the dogfighting we're used to disappear in BF6

[latent crater]

Have you placed HQ_PlayerSpawner and SpawnPoint?
In the properties of HQ_PlayerSpawner must be specified Team and the Infantry Spawns

[latent crater]

And in the VehicleSpawner, you need to select the vehicle type and check the "auto spawn enable" checkbox.

[shy bobcat]

Anyone here knows what’s the best way is for most xp? Was it also to higher hp?

[lime compass]

stop taking up server slots with xp farms

[lone ridge]

Yep. Even made sure each spawn was assigned to a SpawnPoint

[shy bobcat]

Bro is trying the same thing 😭

[lime compass]

im trying to make conquest with more jets and potentially better air support possibilities

[meager urchin]

I spend whole yesterday to try solve that and problem is there is no way to add config.ts to your portal experience and it contains all functions for objectives. You can add it like spatial to json and add original code by encrypting with base64 but without ID it will not work so i still searching for solution...

[lyric aurora]

If it’s a good server it should be kept up 24-7!!!

[frail inlet]

EA could just allow local bot servers and the problem would be gone instantaneously. Don’t blame the players blame EA.

[lyric aurora]

yeah but there's too many shit ones

[lone ridge]

Does anyone know what this means: "Unable to create Experience. gRPC message exceeds maximum size 4194304:107363072"
I can not find anything on this shit...

[latent crater]

you can create a local server with bots

[lyric aurora]

Yeah, I’m trying to find a hardcore server… I hope someone makes a good one and keeps it up!!!

[frail inlet]

Nope not if you want progression. Or it is bugged for me.

[latent crater]

I created an empty map with bots yesterday, and at the end of the round, I was credited with experience

[shy quartz]

Just to play against bots for example.
I want to play with a friend who is not able to compete online against those CoD sweaters, therefore this would come in handy.

[uncut jetty]

The portal servers are dedicated

You can tick persistent Server and then it is dedicated and runs 24/7

[frail inlet]

It will be shown in the list 24/7 but the instance is killed when the player count hits 0.

[light root]

But then ppl with creative ideas cant host a server

[topaz owl]

you can host if you set 16 players per team or lower

[uncut jetty]

Thats still a 24/7 server. The server is still on kind of but in energy saving mode. You can still see the server and if one player joins again the server will be awake again

Thats only a good method to save ressources

[frail inlet]

I beg to differ cause when a player tries to join he gets an error that there are no resources available.

[strong rose]

" intercept projectiles with grenade intercept system" Anyone knows how to speed this up?

[viscid frigate]

No, the server shows but if you try to join, it gives an error.

[uncut jetty]

Yeah because some stupid people make useless and annoying Portal Servers

[uncut jetty]

Then it is an error probably because too many servers are running

[viscid frigate]

Exactly, so the servers are 'not' 24/7 servers. I just wish the official servers were persistent, then there wouldn't be people clogging up Portal with normal game modes either.

[frail inlet]

Exactly 👍
it is a broken marketing promise.

[uncut jetty]

Thats an optimized method for 24/7 Servers. They are and would be 24/7 if there are enough ressources

It would be stupid if there are thousands of empty servers running actively

[viscid frigate]

They're not 24/7 though and they're not persistent. 24/7 means available around the clock 7 days a week. If I try to join my Portal server I get an error. And yes, THERE IS in fact thousands of empty servers actively running, that aren't being shutdown. You can see the difference if it has a 'ping', if it shows 0, your server has been shutdown but that could also just be a UI bug. Who knows. Just give us official persistent servers and I won't bother with Portal since Portal doesn't have 60hz tick rate regardless.

[lone ridge]

Anyone know what this means: "Unable to create Experience. gRPC message exceeds maximum size 4194304:107363072"
I can not find anything on it.

[uncut jetty]

That’s a DICE-side issue if the server crashes and can’t run anymore or too many servers are up — that doesn’t change the fact that it’s persistent and designed to bei available 24/7. Even if it's not really running actively.
Technically, it works like this: DICE uses a dedicated server cluster with virtual Battlefield servers. When a server is empty, it goes into a sleep mode to save resources. Once a player joins, a signal is sent and the server automatically wakes up again.
So yes — it’s persistent, because it runs continuously in the backend and doesn’t require a manual restart.

[frail inlet]

Sadly they will never do that since they want to have 100% control and possibly also licensing issues.

[viscid frigate]

So what am I supposed to do about lmao. If it's not working, then it's not persistent or 24/7.

[uncut jetty]

Wrong, the idea and system is 24/7, but for now it is not working properly

[viscid frigate]

How can it be 24/7 whilst at the same time not working? I know that it's supposed to be 'persistent and 24/7' but it's clearly not working and therefore is not persistent. Just give us official persistent servers.

[uncut jetty]

The topic was that there is no persistent server system in Bf6 and thats simply wrong

Many people said that

[frail inlet]

Well so there is a persistent server list of non usable servers due too EA not scaling their cluster to the needs. That still sound really bad to me.
And if you take off your OPS / DEVOPS sunglasses you would also see that the statement „there are no dedicated 24/7 servers“ is currently true.

[undone prairie]

[uncut jetty]

Portal is completly buggy. Bots not spawning and AddUIText() not working

And the log says no error

[rigid adder]

I can't even start a portal mode for me and friends for days now

just give back public servers like bf 3 and 4

[steady terrace]

Are there any Informations out there about the issue?

[cyan oyster]

Remember everyone if you use Cronus you’re the type of human who can’t cope with the fact you have no skill lol! Just turn cross play off this gets rid of 90 percent Cronus zen douchebags, they will get suspended or banned in time

is it really not working

[cyan oyster]

That’s fair bud! If you wanna join some pc buddies to help you out ping me we can add you! Cronus zen is just the bane of shooters cause it ruins any point of what the devs built to have a fair gunfight.

I don’t mind losing to someone at all! I just want it to be genuine because I lost cause his aim was better and his recoil control was better or he caught me off guard etc. not cause I was snapped to and only shot in the head with a full auto spread with zero bloom on his Cronus ya know?

[frail inlet]

Just keep clicking you might get lucky 🍀

[fiery scarab]

anyone knows why bots aren't auto populating?

I can host the server, but even with bot backfill selected, the bots don't fill up the slots to start the match

[jade hedge]

So apparently EA are trying to crack down on xp farm servers but people are already making servers disguised as vehicle test range maps but are actually xp farms 🤣

[frail inlet]

Yes they want to sell you the unlock packs in a month or two 😉
would be bad if people have unlocked everything by then.

[jade hedge]

It's frustrating. A big part of grinding so hard for things like the insane sniper challenge is that you can show that you've worked hard for it

The argument of xp farm affects nobody is false. Not only gives you an advantage if the later weapons are stupidly good but it means people have to pretend they got something that can only be done through hard work

[frail inlet]

Especially that one is way over the top. And it does hurt the game when everyone is camping for sniper kills and almost no one is playing the objective.
Most of the challenges are okay but that one is just ridiculous.
It does not give me a feeling of pride and accomplishment :p

[rose quiver]

Anyone managed to get a solo 64 player bot lobby. I do backfill but its always 24 players per team and not 32

[trim relic]

why cant i save my portal experience on the website? it says: Response closed without headers?

[fiery scarab]

yep same here. Bot backfill seems bugged

[jade hedge]

Yeah I was watching nadeshot on twitch. He spent over 7 hours on it. Still so many kills to go and THEN he found out that people can get it in portal 😐

[stark marsh]

They probably adjusted bot backfill to slow down amount of XP Farming servers there are

[charred talon]

Is there any guides for the BF6 Portal Editor Tool? Specifically the 'Rules Editor' I want to make a modified version of Conquest but when i changed the vehicle respawn rate on a 'verified' game mode it got removed like 2 days after then i heard that they was removing stuff like that for some reason. So what I'm looking to do is essentially make "Conquest" but increase certain aspects. (Something that can be done Solo and not have to wait for 32 players like in the verified version).

[fiery scarab]

I just wanna start a empty server to fly with my friends- might have to make a 2 v 2 server for the four of us

[charred talon]

I'm new here btw

[jade hedge]

I can dm you the #1 portal server. It not only has a community made documentation on how to use portal. It has many channels to talk scripting and all things in depth portal

[eager igloo]

just me that cant get adrenaline injector kills to count ?

I think it time limited thats why

[red marsh]

Ngl this portal stuff looks insane af, I wouldn't be suprised if someone makes a samurai era map 😂

[jagged talon]

I am trying to create a vehicle team deathmatch, but I couldn't figure out how to set up the spawn like in the normal games. I want to be able to choose the vehicle from the deploy map and spawn in it, like the official matches. I put the vehicle spawners under the HQ tree like the infantry spawners, enabled vehicle spawn in the HQ settings, enabled the HQs in the rule editor, increased the size of the HQ to include the vehicle spawners, but it is still not working. I can just spawn the vehicles in the map, and players can get in them after deploying as an infantry, but I don't want to do that. Any tips?

[charred talon]

That would be great, thanks

[jade hedge]

Alright sent 👍

[broken cargo]

I don’t know who came up with the AA design but they apparently believe that 30mm cannons do exactly 5 damage against infantry. They are actually so bad that infantry will see you and turn their backs and continue to fight cause you’re actually not a threat.

Hi guys, a couple of issues I'm getting creating a custom game mode using firestorm, I uploaded the json with my changes but it's still seems to be using an older json and not the one I uploaded most recently as my additional changes aren't present

2nd issue is the map, I can't figure out a way to have it show the proper top down view

[viscid frigate]

Working as intended to be honest... AA is not for infantry, even though yes, irl... it would be hazardous.

[broken cargo]

It’s useless rn. There is 0 ways to defend yourself against attacks.

[viscid frigate]

Gotta stay behind your own infantry or keep moving. Only way really. Don't know if it has APS or not.

[broken cargo]

At least add a machine gun or something. It’s actually useless in game. Like come on.

[rain hearth]

I made a video on how to fix the "No game mode set" error: https://youtu.be/wSW7M_3nvYU?si=lXHXIQEMNtUe-Gf9&t=376

[lean apex]

I watched the section on this at 6:16 but theres not even a mention of the fix, just how to upload the Json

[rain hearth]

Uploading the JSON that way is the fix, by selecting the proper map that matches the scene you loaded, and uploading the JSON there, not using the import file button or anything else. Where are you having the issue?

[lean apex]

Im having issues with my changes not being uploaded, the game is using my older Json that i have since removed

[rain hearth]

You are deleting the JSON from the map part and then uploading a new (exported) JSON in that section right?

[lean apex]

yes

[rain hearth]

One thing I did to be sure it was my new file was changing the name (in portal) to have V1 or V2 or V3 to be sure im loading the new JSON. Yours is in unpublished status right?

[lean apex]

yes unpublished, subsequent JSONs are versioned

[rain hearth]

Sorry I updated my comment, I meant in Portal chang the title to V3 to be sure its your new one when you get in game

[lean apex]

Could it just be the portal being slow?

[rain hearth]

It might be, thats why I changed the Title of my game in the portal (not the editor) to be sure when I loaded the game im looking at my right one. Yesterday it was taking 5-10 min to see my new name

[lean apex]

Ok, will change the name and wait thank you, what about the in game map, any idea how to make that top down like normal games?

Name updated in game very quickly, still using old JSON

[rain hearth]

Is saw a video mention adding a "Deploy Cam" asset but I did that and couldnt figure out how to "aim" it lol

[lean apex]

Might just recreate it brand new with the new JSON

[rain hearth]

Yea maybe delete your JSON and re-export from Godot to see a whole new file

[lean apex]

I've done this a number of times

[rain hearth]

So are you getting the No Game Mode Set Error or is the game loading just old files?

[lean apex]

Loading old files

[rain hearth]

oh, my video was for the no game mode set error, i'm not too sure about the old files 🙁

[lean apex]

I did briefly see the error on another project so the vid was useful

[sinful narwhal]

is there any way to host a portal server

[lean apex]

Ignore me

[sinful narwhal]

ever since release ive kept spamming host for 30 min and cant get a server hosted

[stark marsh]

yeah right now all you can do is spam and hope you get lucky to get a server slot
$55bn mega-corporation can't spend more than $10 on servers sorry

[sinful narwhal]

30min of spamming is diabolical

[cyan oyster]

Another Cronus banned! Hell yea keep it up battlefield

[lean apex]

I give up, its still using old JSON info even on a new experience

[sudden grail]

I think they are pausing the feature while they figure out how to avoid the XP Farm servers.

[stark marsh]

well if they kept their promise of everyone getting one server, it wouldn't matter tho.

[sudden grail]

There is no waiting queue right now, so they have plenty of servers for the current demand. The error when hosting a portal server seems like a deliberate action to fight against the XP Farm servers.

[sudden grail]

I hope so

[stark marsh]

Surely just turning off ability to Persistent Server with Bot Backfill on would go a long way. That way the host has to be there, people can't just leave bot XP farms on 24/7

[sudden grail]

Another option could be that killing a bot doesn't pay XP or count toward any kind of progression. Then, people will play with bots for training purposes or for fun, not for cheesing.

I personally want to host a persistent server with bot backfill, but I see the bots as a way to seed the server. Human players won't sit on a loading screen for hours. They would want action.

[stark marsh]

Hm, I think bots should still give XP and progression.
There just neeeds to be some way of detecting if it's a farm, or limiting how long a bot backfill server can be active for before it needs re-hosting? Not sure. I hope there's a solution without removing progression.

[sudden grail]

A middle ground could be that they pay less XP and progression. Like killing 10 bots is the same as killing a real player, or so.

[gleaming mango]

does someone know if portal servers with password on count towards stats and the tasks?

[sudden grail]

The idea is not making it the easiest way to get the challenges done or max out everything

[stark marsh]

I think 2042 ended up capping it at a certain amount of XP per minute. That might be worth re-implementing.
I think that's definetely worth them trying to find solutions first. If they MUST remove them to stop the farming, I get it, I just hope they don't.

[compact knot]

Or just close Persistent servers until they do have a fix

[stark marsh]

One thing they could also do is make it so on verified gamemodes, you can't change how many tickets there are, and how long it takes to capture objectives. Bot farms heavily rely on some of those features. If you change that, it becomes a custom experience.

[sudden grail]

they are probably doing that right now. I can't host a persistent server.

[viscid frigate]

Um, no. Then you're destroying PvE. I think how they have it is fine, that verified Portal game modes with AI gives Full XP. 30hz servers however, is not fine.

[compact knot]

and maybe limit it to 1 server pr. account if it isnt like that already

[hasty ginkgo]

can't understand why in 2025 DICE is incapable of shuting down any server that have 'Bot', 'XP' or 'Farm' in the title

[gleaming mango]

since when has battlefield ever been a PvE game lol

[sudden grail]

that's the limit in theory, but right now is ZERO server per account

[hasty ginkgo]

3 days trying to up a community server (that was full on launch day), but can't, becase server quota is full of shitty servers

[viscid frigate]

There are people who enjoy playing against AI and not sweating it out against people. The AI exists, it's in the game. The option should too, which it does through verified modes.

[compact knot]

True 🙂

[gleaming mango]

they still shouldnt count towards progression
same as password locked portal experiences
as it allows players to just bypass grinding for stuff by farming on super easy mode

[stark marsh]

Since they added portal.

I think Bots are a required part of custom experiences, and people won't be willing to give experiences a go if they've got bots that you get nothing for.

[hasty ginkgo]

lets pay $70 on a multiplayer game to play agains bots ... the logic ...

[viscid frigate]

Well I am of the contrary opinon because what about regions with low player counts, you're essentially handing it to them, denying the game they paid for.

It's fine how it is with only verified modes having full xp with AI enabled. A million times better than 2042's portal where turning AI on reduced XP.

[stark marsh]

there's just more people playing this game so there's more bot farm XP servers in correlation. It definetely is better than 2042s

[gleaming mango]

heavily influenced game modes shoulndt even touch your profile stats, progression or anything - thats boring and just takes people away from playing party gamemodes

[sudden grail]

Something is not fine for sure. We can't host a server right now.

[viscid frigate]

Ayy, I also want official persistent servers too so lobbies don't disband every round. I hope they'll get to all these issues eventually.

[meager parcel]

portal is so gimped that we can't reduce AI health, probably just so some people don't farm XP from it. I'd much rather not get XP at all and play the way that I want to without having to go to the great lengths to create a custom experience (not starting from a base game like conquest).

[meager parcel]

"everyone has to play the way I want to play"

[compact knot]

we agree on if i host a custom game locally friends cant join? Coz my friends cant join 😉

[meager parcel]

locally means your LAN, not the internet. that's what I would assume at least.

[compact knot]

okay.. Just wierd its not possible to host any games. And not able to fool around with stuff with friends locally.

[meager parcel]

I agree

[rotund pier]

bring back ability to buy your own server like bf4 so we can actually make a server would be nice

[dawn plinth]

sadly, is not going to be the case

[rotund pier]

u never know ea need money xD

[dawn plinth]

at least, a RCON-like integration would be awesome

editing a fcking experience from browser and then restart the server is not a good UI, much less for the players of the experience

[rotund pier]

true

[stark marsh]

Usually I'm against that but yes, I think the Persistent Server option could be bought, free could be the non-persistent version, will probably help, but that's like a last resort option

[sudden grail]

In theory, we already bought our own server, since they said we could host one.

[sudden grail]

why would you prefer to be charged for something they already granted you

[tired nest]

how to fix portal global quota reached?? its been like that for days wtf

[rotund pier]

there is no fix eithier they increase server limit or they fix the persistent servers with zero people

[sudden grail]

That could be a good option for each extra server, like if I want to have more than one.

[rotund pier]

if thats the case then if ever person that paid 70$ for the game had a server by default there would be 1 mil+ servers that is unsustainable in the long run so removing the persistent server if they have 0 players for like x hours and having option to buy a server would be nice cause increasing the limit of global servers for people wont be stainable.

[stark marsh]

hey their Marketing team were the ones who told us there would be a server each, if that was unreasonable then it's kind of on them.

[viscid frigate]

You're assuming everyone would actually host their own server, which is unlikely. Majority won't even touch Portal.

[rotund pier]

true but for talk sake if everyone did even half did that would be 500k servers if u get me its still alot

[warm torrent]

I found a work around for myself which is downloading the json file for the portal map, and post it for my personal use without publishing it, that way youre able to host it locally, ive found this works for me since the main thing im currently doing is air training so I use it specifically for that

(Only downloading JSON files from trusted sources like friends who are map creators)

[dawn plinth]

You don't need to download the JSON (unless the creator didn't publish). You can search the experience in-game and click Host. Then it will show the Host portal server screen, go to the bottom and you'll find a Host locally button

[warm torrent]

the creator did publish it however, so I had no choice but to download the JSON, due to the servers always capping, since I dont like spamming the host button

[steady terrace]

Is there a experience in-game with fully 100% exp for weapons and so on?

[dawn plinth]

yeah, playing the game
XP farm is against ToS

[steady terrace]

ToS?

[dawn plinth]

terms of service

[marble acorn]

Question regarding portal scripting.. the scripting option in portal interface is only meant for bot control.. not game mode design etc?

[steady terrace]

Okay ty - but it was also in bf2042 and the devs didnt care, so…

[dawn plinth]

it's for game mode design

[azure nebula]

hey guys, anyone have to press the host button 10 times for it to try and work?

[marble acorn]

The website is kinda misleading.. IM trying to submit a custom server script etc... Im getting an "Action Needed" error...but cannot find where the Action or issue is.. even looking at the script it shows no errors.

[dawn plinth]

If you want to create a custom map and like, use a Conquest game mode, you need to implement it yourself. There's some working being done in the BF Community Portal discord server, you can check there

[tawdry harness]

Its basically for everything. Bots, Game mode, custom gameplay behaviors, UI, etc.

[light root]

They said play the game the way you want

[marble acorn]

Right.. I figured out how to submit map changes etc..but I wish there was a better error console so i can figure out what the Portal is crying about.

[modern jewel]

anyone got links for creating maps for beginners... ty

[tawdry harness]

Where is the error happening? What are you doing that leads to the error? (importing, saving, creating, etc?)

[marble acorn]

You cant create a NEW map.. you can edit existing ones.. start here:

https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-6/news/portal-101-advanced-creations

[modern jewel]

thanks!

[sudden grail]

The X hours to auto shutdown is a week. If that is not sustainable, why making the promise in the first place. Some folks spent $70, other $100, others pay an EA Play Pro subscription, either paying monthly or annually. They would monetize with skins, etc.......

[marble acorn]

Importing a script named main.ts (maybe its the name?) Ive looked at the script area on the portal console and previously I saw where it will highlight errors etc..but this script is clean and shows no errors there.

[tawdry harness]

Is it "Battlefield Portal Hub" server? I did a quick google search and this was the closest thing to "BF Community Portal" I found

[marble acorn]

Yep, its on the Battlefield 6 portal 100%

[sudden grail]

And that would be 1 million of Virtual Servers, not physical servers. A physical server should be able to host a LOT of virtual servers

[modern jewel]

is there any discords for mapping, or is it just this one channel? 🙂

[sudden grail]

This ☝️

[woeful crypt]

Made a tool to place hesco barriers

[jagged talon]

I am trying to create a vehicle team deathmatch, but I couldn't figure out how to set up the spawn like in the normal games. I want to be able to choose the vehicle from the deploy map and spawn in it, like the official matches. I put the vehicle spawners under the HQ tree like the infantry spawners, enabled vehicle spawn in the HQ settings, enabled the HQs in the rule editor, increased the size of the HQ to include the vehicle spawners, but it is still not working. I can just spawn the vehicles in the map, and players can get in them after deploying as an infantry, but I don't want to do that. Any tips?

[woeful crypt]

Flushes them with the terrain mesh rotates them at a random interveral of 90 degrees, with variances to add more randomness

[dawn plinth]

bfportal [dot] gg
there's a discord server there with ripple devs

[woeful crypt]

You try playing with the vehicle spawner ?

Im trying to do something simular, im expanding one map to be larger

[tawdry ermine]

The server browser looks like a school project made in Scratch.

[sudden grail]

Lol

[stark marsh]

The UI in general is pretty bad.
They should be careful, Hulu might sue for copyright infringment.

[tawdry harness]

I tried renaming my script to main.ts but that didn't change anything really..
I also doubt its the contents of the script since, it basically a text file.

Just to make sure, you are on the "Rules Editor > Scripts" section of the web editor, and you are clicking on "manage Scripts" (icon on top right of bucket with arrow pointing up & down), and on "Custom Script", clicking the folder icon and selecting main.ts from there, right?

[marble acorn]

Yep, I used Manage script option to upload my main.ts file ... and just to verify, i want back there and got this "Warning: You already have a custom Script on this Experience. Importing a new one here will replace the old one."

[dawn plinth]

Server Browser in the browser was waaaaaaaaaaaay better
actually even in-game with BF4/1/V

[jagged talon]

What do you mean playing? Did you managed to get it to work?

[tawdry harness]

To be doubly sure, the "Action Needed" error is when you click "Import File(s)" on that side bar?

[woeful crypt]

With the vehicle spawned? Not yet, maybe it needs custom hud elements to do so

[marble acorn]

It shows as a red box on the Thumbnail image of the My Experience list and when i click on Modify on that experience.. it shows at the top right of the screen left of the Save and Publish buttons... I have got thru every setting and cannot find the issue LOL -- I may change the script to something simple to see if its a syntax thing where the error isnt being displayed on the console. Sigh

[jovial sable]

Man, still getting error when try to host server : (

[tawdry harness]

Oh!! Did you try to publish it? I think it just means it wasn't approved.

On the left bar, click "Publish" and on "Step 1" on the bottom right it shows that same message and explains it

[hidden mesa]

I see some people have the gun setting to bf1bf4 but don’t have that option in console. Is this just a pc setting? Tia

[tawdry harness]

FYI, you don't need to publish it to play it. If you just save, you can still access it under "My Expereineces" in-game

[marble acorn]

Yep I see the message chart.. but I wish it would define what is flagged.. LOL

[glass mesa]

GLOBAL GAME QUOTA EXCEEDED

Our game servers are at capacity. We're working to get you back in the game. {9 :147002S: -17461111940}

Bored with this last 2 days impossible just give us rented servers again please

[hidden mesa]

It might be controller settings.

[jovial sable]

same here, lot FARM-BOTS servers

[glass mesa]

I think they reduced the amount of servers because of xp farms

[dusk dew]

Portal host code OUT!!!!

There are so many bots, experience servers.
This is all because of the useless host code.
I'm a developer who didn't learn the lessons from 2042.

[rigid adder]

they should just axe all servers after 24 hrs

[jovial sable]

they need to shutdown this servers
FAST

[dusk dew]

Don't turn a blind eye to users' opinions.
We've always told you to get rid of the host code and warned you. As a result, the server was overloaded. If you're going to do this, please make a paid server.

[worldly cairn]

Hey if I wanted to make a TDM mode in portal, what do I need to add to the script/blocks?
I assume there aren't any templates to download anywhere

[gusty tusk]

Has anyone encountered the portal website requiring you to buy the game despite owning it on steam?

[dusk dew]

Portal server shutdown is urgently needed, and it is necessary to impose sanctions on bots and experience servers.
Bots or experience servers are getting rid of the fun of Battlefield 6.

[rotund pier]

make sure to have your ea account and steam linked?

[gusty tusk]

they are :(

[stark marsh]

Or they could just up the number of servers to the amount they promised.

[dusk dew]

The Battlefield developers clearly said.
I heard you expect creative users to experience through portal mode. However, 80 to 90% of them are experience, bot servers.

[rotund pier]

persistent server should be a membership/paid option

[dusk dew]

It's worth looking forward to, but you won't be able to handle the servers you copied. I think it's better to download the 2042 server as a temporary measure and support Battlefield 6.

[stark marsh]

I don't know if that's actually possible, but I'm sure the 6 people still playing 2042 wouldn't mind if they were to do that.

[lunar island]

There seems to be a big problem with Battlefield 6 servers in the Middle East. Every time we try to play, we end up in lobbies full of bots and almost no real players. Sometimes there are only four or five real players at most. This makes the game unplayable for us. Please fix this issue as soon as possible before the community loses interest.

[dusk dew]

Anyway, the first thing to do is to remove the host code. Because of this, bot servers, experience servers continue to increase.

[median kestrel]

Same with Xbox

[wanton kettle]

WHEN CAN WE MAKE PORTAL SERVERS AGAIN

[jovial sable]

[lyric aurora]

States also….

[subtle wasp]

Where can we ask battlefield portal devs about some things? I tried the ea support ticket and they just marked it as “Inappropriate” or smth like that

[lyric aurora]

I’m down for paid servers… 100%!!!! Let us run it how we want!!!

[last pewter]

man the bugs and the cheaters are insane

[lyric aurora]

That’s lame… when we have issues and try and bring it to their attention they don’t want to listen… I thought they would have changed this time!!!

[subtle wasp]

They portal documentation, especially the typescript one is very very very poor

[terse sundial]

Why is nobody talking by about how there’s only one sidearm in the game…

[lyric aurora]

Hahah, really?????

[rigid adder]

I got 4 pistols

[terse sundial]

How I only saw one

[subtle wasp]

4 pistols, you probably only saw the standard favorited one

[lyric aurora]

If that’s true the battle pass shit will be releasing lots of guns then… why can’t we get thermal vision in our tanks!!!!!

[rigid adder]

5.7, m45a1 abd a revolver too

[terse sundial]

So it’s probably showing the favorites tab your saying😂 wow I’m blind or thr ui sucks for putting me in the favorite tab first

[dusk dew]

Portal issues you've experienced now

1. Repeat host error code.
2. If you leave the persistent server on, you cannot re-enter.
3. The network environment is in good condition, but the ping is -310 even though it is a green antenna.
4. After the map ends, you are forced to the in-game lobby as you go to the next map.
5. It is impossible to search the server I created.
6. I hosted in the area where I live, but I'm caught in a different country.
7. When I pressed and looked at the server tour to see which server I hosted, the ping was marked as 0.

[subtle wasp]

I just unfavorited the standard favorites -> fixes this “problem”

[lyric aurora]

Do we know when we will have more room in the portal servers???

[subtle wasp]

You can go to “My Experiences” and there you find it!

[subtle wasp]

I saw a tiktok where they just spammed “Host” (inbetween 2-30 times) and it worked

[dusk dew]

I can't do that

[dusk dew]

It appears in some users

EA developers are clearly aware of the portal, so it will be okay if we wait
If the host code still exists, it cannot be resolved; it is an infinite iteration.

[subtle wasp]

Is it a custom gamemode or an official one?

[rich basin]

yes please shut portals down

[terse sundial]

Ya don’t like portal?

[rich basin]

no shut them down........

[sudden grail]

we like it, but we can't host a server

[fathom shuttle]

i can host easily

[rich basin]

bro the only thing people use portal for is xp farming.... its dumb they need to shut them down

[sudden grail]

a custom experience I guess, but a verified experience

[sudden grail]

or local server I guess

[terse sundial]

Xp farming shouldn’t be a thing but idk how you would limit xp farming while keeping portal

[dusk dew]

Developer: Expect rich imagination from users.
Reality: Bot, Experience Server & Overload

[subtle wasp]

Portal is awesome. Especially for the future of the game it is 100% necessary for custom gamemodes like BombSquad, Custom Maps etc

[fathom shuttle]

i can host any server takes like 5mins to get the server

[sudden grail]

implementing a time-based hard cap, like no more than 50 XP per minute

[subtle wasp]

They already limit xp for custom gamemodes

[terse sundial]

The only reason why people feel the need to do farm is probably because xp gain is too slow so they should go for the root of the problem not shutdown portal. If xp gain was fine then people would have no need to abuse it in portal

[sudden grail]

are you serious?

[sudden grail]

if they can abuse it, they will

[fathom shuttle]

yes

[sudden grail]

would you mind sharing the secret here?

[terse sundial]

Their need to abuse it is coming from slow xp gain they wouldn’t do it if xp gain wasn’t slow nobody wants to sit and farm bots in actuality

[jovial sable]

custom get REDUCED EXP

[dusk dew]

1. Delete host code
2. Delete In-Game Hosting Features
3. Normal host servers also require review capabilities like customization.

[sudden grail]

Or the challenges are too challenging, and using bots is easier.

[dusk dew]

4. server shut down
5. Clean

[fathom shuttle]

just spam host what lobby u trying to host

[sudden grail]

Hardcore SQUAD RAAS 24/7
Experience Code: gb1e

[fathom shuttle]

the way it works for me is spamming host i can try host for u in like a hour

[sudden grail]

I would appreciate it

I don't understand what you mean

[fathom shuttle]

you trying to host a lobby to do challenges?

[jovial sable]

still getting error there?

[fathom shuttle]

you trying to host a lobby to do challenges?

[sudden grail]

no. I want to provide a realistic experience for all to enjoy. No HUD, no blue dots on allies, Friendly fire ON. More hardcore. It's a verified experience, so full XP and progression

bots only for seeding the server. Real players would replace them.

[onyx fossil]

how is it ruining the fun just dont join them dude

[sudden grail]

of course

[finite pawn]

I got AI and vehicles to spawn, and AI to use the vehicles, but man, everything being asynchronous makes it hard to work with

[jovial sable]

sad =/

[onyx fossil]

is it just me or does the bullet spread seem so extreme

[weary ruin]

Anyone know why my Portal server keeps giving errors when people try to join even when it’s set to persistent on. I’m able to drag people in if there in my party but they cant join after if they get disconnected etc…

[sudden grail]

the feature is really broken

[mystic forge]

Looking at the portal website here, at the final step before publishing an experience there is a warning at the bottom that states:
"Test your experience before publishing".

I'd love to be able to test my map edits without the need to go through the publication wait, but how would I go about testing an unpublished map edit on console? Or in editor even

[stark marsh]

Make sure to save it on the Portal website, than go in-game, go to "My Experiences", and it should be there for you to Host Locally.

[twin relic]

yo guys, did you managed to fix that problem with the sunlight that is too strong? i see timthetatmans stream and he doesnt have that problem but i cant find his settings anywhere

[faint plaza]

my json file for portal is 185mb any way I can make it smaller? I have put all the new objects in one single Node3D ?

[worldly cairn]

Could someone more experienced with Portal help me set up a mode for it?
I have no clue how these blocks or scripts work

[desert sleet]

Did they stop the hosting of password locked lobbys

[uncut wave]

Iv yet to mess with godot tbh, but tonight I'm getting it all setup, can't be that different to unity and unreal right?

[cloud narwhal]

It's impossible to host a legit server because there are many server for boosting with bots and 100% xp

[minor dome]

Say thanks to content creators advertising it, also news websites that talk of it

[stark marsh]

doesnt help that grinding is so slow either, especially for weapons. It's all just serving to create a bigger problem tbh

[cloud narwhal]

Yeah i know, is it possible for Dice to remove xp for those BOTS SERVERS with psw??

if the servers is locked by psw you can't earn xp. This is the way to use those server for learning but don't grinding

[desert sleet]

They knew it would happen, Make the challenge mega grindy and provide a method to create farm lobbys and save people heaps of time

[minor dome]

They should just have allowed custom hosting outside of the game, dedicated servers and shit like for bf3, but allowing to use portal gamemodes with the jsons

[cloud narwhal]

but I'm not particularly interested in players farming XP but that way there's no chance to create new modes that players can appreciate and play

[dusky moss]

Looks like portal is dead cause of this shit

[stark marsh]

Exactly. If people pay $70 to bot farm that's their choice, absolutely, and they should be allowed to do that.
Issue is when you promise everyone a server, and 3/4 of people can't get a server...

The lack of official communication on this issue is making it worse too. We have no idea if they even intend to address this, let alone what plans they intend to implement. Either they don't care, or have no idea what to do.. not sure which is worse to be honest.

[cloud narwhal]

Is it possible to suggest to DICE how to handle private servers and grinding? And if so, where can this be done?

[timid valley]

I would enjoy if we could display the dogtags of people we've knifed

That was a fun feature, always trying to get your buddies tags

[gentle marlin]

guys, im trying to upload my map on the portal editor. i unfortunately have no idea about the scripting and rules part. i wish simply to play normal modes on my map. can anyone help me out?

[crystal mica]

3/4 people = i dont think u get that there are like 2milions or more players online (maybe way more on all platforms) and if everyone wants a private server its insane amount of cost...they need a good scalability or like it was on bf3/4 make a function to pay ur p server and keep it always up and running

[rapid crater]

Yes! I’ve been trying to find that!!

[worldly cairn]

[steady terrace]

Pay for this pay for that - you pay for a game 70 bucks + if you on console pay for the Online service. + paying for an own server which was promised by EA? Bro this state with Portal atm is absolut disgrace. Overall a solid game - but its to grind heavy - Portal would help a bit but if you cant join in it…

[crystal mica]

tell me one game that u dont pay 70 euro triple aaa and has infinite custom servers 🙂

[gentle marlin]

bruh i thought this was to answer questions about portal

[stark marsh]

This may sound harsh, but I don't really care how much it costs them to be honest. They were the ones who said everyone would get a server slot, not me. That's on them. If it costs them the entire game's profit, then so be it. They shouldn't have had it in their marketing material if they knew it wasn't feasible.
I accept that they won't know how many players for a couple of days, and servers aren't plucked out of thin air, but 4 days after launch and we've heard zilch about this issue just isn't good enough.

Bear in mind, they gave people 12x Career Boosters, 12x Hardware Boosters, and a free Season Pass for 4 hours of inconvenience.. If that's the going rate, how much will they give people for 4 days of inconvenience and counting?

[crystal mica]

grinding is always been a thing in bf i dont think u remember how much time u will get to make lvl 50 at bad company 2 but...ahhh...kiddo

[umbral frost]

Error joining any community server???????

[worldly cairn]

is there a place where I can find gamemode scripts for portal? I want to make a TDM one but it's not in the mode selector

I have a bot lobby if anyone wants to grind weapons

BC2 Weapon Platinum was 1000 kills. BF4's was roughly 550. Each weapon in this game takes approx. 3500 kills to max out.
It's not even close.

If you told me it was an error and someone accidentally put an extra zero on BF6's progression, I'd believe you because there's just no way a real human being looked at that and went "yep, that sounds good to me".

Also, Enlisted. Infinite server slots available for you to use on Custom Matches. Never had an issue with theirs, and their yearly profit is probably not even 1% of EAs.

Currently too many Players or Servers online for Portal.

Giving everyone persistent servers was not the best idea
