portal

[prime crag]

yeah there does, i remeber i read something in reddit which document how to bypass the bot restrictions days ago, i dont know did they patch it now

sorry just check it, the post which title "For everyone wanting to enjoy PVE, this is how to bypass the bot restrictions." has been removed by the moderator

[tender pendant]

what up wit bf6 today i will not stop dcing

[dry vector]

As you have all probably noticed, there are still farming servers up even after all the patches and efforts attempting to shut them down. All it really accomplished was ruining the game for people who wanted to enjoy PVE.

it's still out there

but fun police monitor here since that's their only job

[strange parrot]

Please help me seeding this server, I only need 6 other players to start this 1 hour match
After the game starts you can quit if you want!

REALISTIC HARDCORE CONQUEST / ALL MAPS / FULL XP
This is not the official Hardcore.
30% health for soldiers and vehicles,90% soldiers speed, 10% health regeneration, no defibrillator, HUD on, spotting on, fast vehicle spawn.

Code: Z3PCC

[hollow topaz]

Trying to get a server going that follows the BF4 Classic Mode preset. Getting 19 other players will be near impossible but worth a shot. Closed weapon conquest, 48 players, ruleset is in between normal and hardcore. Health and damage values are the same as normal, they have not been changed.

Server Name: FULL XP - CLASSIC CONQUEST - NA - #3910

Server Description: A classic Battlefield experience featuring class locked weapons, no 3D spotting, no health regen (soldier and vehicle), 1st person vehicles, squad leader only spawning and mag reloads. No health or damage values have been adjusted.

Experience Code: x84n

[alpine dune]

Is there bug report channel?
And most importantly. How the F there's no redeploy option?

[tired anvil]

Hi everyone!
I’m currently getting into Battlefield 6 Portal and I’m looking for documentation and resources about the SDK, the Rules Editor, and best practices for creating good custom modes like Conquest-style experiences. I’d love to learn more about the available objects, variables, events, and any useful scripting patterns you use in your own projects. If you have guides, example projects, Git repos, or servers where people share knowledge about Portal creation, I’d really appreciate any links or advice. Thanks in advance and see you on the battlefield!

[carmine talon]

There is BF portal discord where very technical stuff with SDK - Godot is , but i can not link or even place invite code here. Mods keep deleting it. Request me DM and i'll send you through DM

Actually no need to DM either, just go discovery and type Battlefield Portal Hub in search box. You'll find it there.

[lyric aurora]

hey guys, is the progression back to portal ?

[dense holly]

the time between messages should tell you how dead they have made portal

[true quest]

Nah it's because slowmode is enabled

[dense holly]

so a 4 hour slow down?

[dry vector]

ok I can respond now cuz 10 hour slow mode was enabled... yes and no... I'll go into more detail when I can send another message in 10 hours /s

Yes for verified experience but no if you just want to play against bots because dice made it so you have to have a minimum number of human players to start basically killing all portal servers since there aren't enough portal players and the browser is crap

Searching for official rules is still broken. They actually don't care about portal or people wanting a solo/duo experience

There are ways around these restrictions though but not in here cuz they are watching

[mellow chasm]

@lyric aurora yes, there are many full xp servers. Mostly hardcore though.

Server Browser > Filters > Slots Any.

Sort by Player Count. And hit refresh.

[mellow chasm]

You won't see many vanilla servers unless they are unique or modified settings because probably poeple have no need to go to Server Browser when they can use matchmaking. Most popular types are hardcore, bot farms and unique experiences in Portal.

[lyric aurora]

Thank you @dry vector @mellow chasm

[scenic cape]

Does anyone know how to make a pure pve conquest mode on portal now? like in 2042
me with 31 bot teamates vs 32 bot enemy

[dense holly]

Closed weapons Conquest Launched, Strike 5

[wise sequoia]

Set it to fillup with bots

[fallen falcon]

@wise sequoia still no xp with that right ?

[hard lynx]

Do we have an idea on when or if we are going to be able to wipe a terrain clear and start asset placement fresh or even import newly created terrain into the sdk to build onto at all yet?

[wise sequoia]

Yep

[ocean wagon]

theres a PoS on my server but hes not showing in the scoreboard so I cant kick him??

[dense holly]

ofcourse you can

[ocean wagon]

nah it was showing his EA name in chat but console name on scoreboard

[hard lynx]

When are we getting the ability to use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5On6mCWFmQ to make maps and experiences 😉

For those scared of links from rando's then it is 'Imagination to Creation - AI in Game Design and Development'

[prime crag]

Can we set portal privately or only can be used by friends?

[crisp dragon]

@dense holly did you ever get your stuff going with there 20 ppl to start a server crap?

[dense holly]

Yessir, I start 3 - 4 servers a day

Right now I have 3 full HC variant servers. All maps, Ground maps, Vehicle Maps.

All have Crawl on death, Crosshairs for vehicles, and squad leader can spawn on all mates like every other battlefield ever known to man

all searchable Via "Strike 5"

Looking for a squad'

[umbral grotto]

Has anyone made a conquest/multiplayer mode on any of the other areas of redsec apart from the club house? I’m eager to see someone do it XD

[bitter meadow]

Give code I wanna see what that chaos looks like on tiny maps

[elder sequoia]

https://www.twitch.tv/kibix42000

[vast galleon]

Whats the meta guns in redsec atm?

[lusty tendon]

SGX/MP5/KV9 + KTS/M250/EMR

MP5/M4A1/M433/M277 + M2010 ESR/PSR

M277 has rough recoil (which can be tamed/learned) and only a 25rnd mag... but the best full auto TTK past 20m. Better for duos.

[vast galleon]

You have a build for any of the smgs?

[lusty tendon]

• SGX: CQB suppressor/light barrel/alloy vertical/36 round mag/any 1-1.5x (you can swap the grip for a laser if you want a hip fire build)
• MP5: CQB sup/extended barrel/40rnd mag/red laser/mag latch/2x (this is a long range SMG build)
• KV9: CQB sup/short barrel/23rnd mag/red laser/1-1.5x (this will delete people within 20m)

I'll add the M4A1 as well since that's almost an SMG: Lightened sup/short barrel/alloy vertical/30rnd fast mag/mag latch/1.5-2x

For duos, you can omit the larger mags on the SGX and MP5 and put points into stuff like hollow points/frangible rounds/or lasers. But having more than 30 rounds is nice for quads.

[fathom cove]

will there be a free for all portal?

[lofty pivot]

If you just search "casual conquest 128" or "casual conquest" in the portal browser filter, you should see a bunch populated. I'm not home to grab the code.

[scarlet notch]

Best website for builds?

Looking for a sniper support build

[carmine talon]

When they reduce the start limit to sensible numbers like 4 or 2? Like what is the point right now having this high number ? Farming servers are still there, you can farm weapon XP still , so WHY? What is the logic behind this, other than keeping portal less populated and appealing?

[craggy raptor]

Wdym build, it isn’t division or warframe. Just pick your favorite sniper and support ?

[magic garnet]

Is there still double xp?

[gritty steppe]

have dice fixed the portal xp?

[mellow chasm]

Only way to stop farming servers is to have no xp if bots are enabled. And they need to reduce match start requirement for pvp servers to 4 or 8.

[mellow chasm]

And just have casual playlist with bots for those who want to level up guns.

[carmine talon]

2-4 max PVP should start without bots. People don't wait unless you look for seeders. Which becomes a job instead of fun, time consuming and extra effort. You have XP CAP - BOT (Reduced XP) - BOTS (NO STATS) , still XP Farm is going, so give us what promised already " A proper Portal service that can function for PVPE. It's complete utter nonsense "20 player" req for PVP server to start.

[pale hedge]

Has anyone made any BF2:MC maps like Deadly Pass or Backstab?

[meager cedar]

Is the only way to play with me and all bots is hosting a server in game? When I try to create a server on the website and tweak settings to my liking i csnt host locally...it always says 13/xx players needed??

[faint canopy]

Same here. The server just doesn't fill up. :/

[faint canopy]

Amen🙏🏻💪🏻

[dry vector]

just add solo/duo mode, one of the things 2042 did right

pretty sure they don't need "labs" to figure that out

people wouldn't need to make bot portal servers and then they could just remove the player cap completely for a game to start

[spare hinge]

idk where to put this but here, when using the S.D.O 3.50x optic, the magnification zoom malfunctions whenif you have a canted sight on the weapon, instead of zooming in on the magnified optic, it switches to the canted,t eh the effect applies to that optic instead lol

[silk tundra]

No. This is a BF6 Portal chat. Discord in general is not an appropriate place for bugreports or feedback, people only come here to scream into the void. To submit a bug report, you'll need to visit the EA forums.

canteds are simply inapplcable when using the type of optic im using now. which is fine, cause this thing magnified from up to 1x to 6x anyway

Get it hosted on persistent mate,I try and get it filled with players and you can get some major feedback and continue improving it

Be an absolute blast,especially if you keep at it

[shut skiff]

its so annoying that they backpedalled on this so badly, probably one of the things I REALLY liked about BF2042 is playing with bots and having actual progression

also actual players is honestly so annoying to deal with sometimes 😭

[gusty tusk]

Looks like there is a persistent server up rn! I've been trying to do large tests of the other modes but I have never had more than 9 players at a time

[dense holly]

Just bring the browser to the top of the menu
Team Balancer
Ability to add moderators
If a server is modified it should not effect a server that was already up and running ( people change the bots on and off trying to fool the system)
team swap button
Ability to favorite a server

Servers tend to launch and show no players, this is a horrible big for some poor soul to sit alone for 45 minutes and not realize no one knows they are there

Rotating tiles for user created verified experiences BUT, the tiles should be smart enough to show experiences that are populated currently. Showing people empty servers will only further make them ignore anything

Tiles in experiences now will not show full servers - this needs to be fixed

Join bug - you constantly get thrown to the main menu when you try to join a server ( its server end best I can tell not user, Ive restarted and came back and still thrown to main menu)

Free slots filter set to "for party" causes a daily questin on my server in which I have toi explain, set free slots to any to find us. This needs a fix

People in Queue, in a party, should enter the server on the same team, even if that means they drop in 1 at a time - this is another need for team swap

8 player start is crazy, make it 4 player start and bots need not be a part of it, or they are, either way full XP and Stats

[tiny timber]

I have a bug report (for a broken SDK API function) open there for 22 days without no comments, not even a "looking into it" or "thank you for reporting this" canned response. I'm not entirely sure what an "appropriate place" actually is.

[silk tundra]

For that, people on the actual Battlefield Portal discord might have a better answer. For now, though, it looks like the release was mighty rushed, and all those devs that took 9-month vacations as a result of it are a real hit on their ability to react to feedback.

[tiny timber]

I'm on that other discord literally hourly. There is no difference with respect to bug reports. Although they did finally address the community as a general "we hear your feedback" update.

[silk tundra]

Well, that's news to me

[lyric aurora]

That’s dope!!

[crisp dragon]

Did they change the, need 20 to start a round with No-Bots?

[lyric aurora]

Can we favorite servers yet?

[scenic cape]

How? i dont see this option

All my servers seem to be kicking everyone after the round

[dense holly]

Also seems like idle kicker broke

Huge plus for me

🤣

[dense hedge]

Hi there! Sorry to bother y'all...I just wanted to know if anyone already tried to make proper custom classes in Portal that go beyond the 4 standard ones.
I tried to fiddle with the Web UI but couldn't really catch a grasp of what should I do to get to that point. If someone knows how to do such and can give me a direction I would much appreciate it!

[flint plume]

Good morning guys, did EA fix the min players and Bot Backfill yet?

[valid basin]

Portal gives full progression and XP when?

[hearty aurora]

How can I launch a server solo with no bots and not have the 20 player requirement to explore maps for team tactics?

[lofty pivot]

nope, and their community update doesn't communicate anything on the poor state of portal. And it's being spammed by giant messages complaining about radar and vehicle balance which are arguably far less important if you don't suck at the game

https://discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/1445806953266942145

[hallow arrow]

Which gives more
Weapon xp ? Sabotage or king of hill

[lyric aurora]

Do people only like playing portal for hardcore servers? I cant be the only one that wants a chaotic high ticket conquest close quarters server

Every single populated server is just hardcore 😂

[crisp dragon]

Nope, still need 20...😪🙄

[dense holly]

I tried, I advertised a day prior on every reddit that id start a regular conquest closed weapons server at noon central USA last Saturday

I start 3-4 hardcore servers everyday. I sat in the only "official" dice closed weapons conquest server for 4 hours alone with my seeders

The bf community seems just fine with match making and it's tremendously sad

Unless something changes to push for, or at least make it easier for community servers in future bfs, this will be my last one

[silk tundra]

I get the feeling the real community grew up or moved on after 2042

Everyone who's fine with matchmaking probably came from other games because there literally isn't any other reasonable casual shooter right now besides Battlefield

I played mostly on portal before they nuked it

It's so much better when they don't do everything in their power to dissuade you and funnel players into matchmaking

What did you play

[silk tundra]

Just regular hardcore or its quality of life derivatives

[dense holly]

Oh, you've probably been in one of mine or two!

[silk tundra]

Unlikely

Yours are all 200+ ping

[dense holly]

Oh lololol, you're far

[silk tundra]

Central Asia

Whenever I start a server, it usually ends up in Germany

[dense holly]

I've got em set so some of our players in Europe still have just under 100

Dude, that's so annoying, I have my Swedish buddy join first

Then the ping is 30s for me

If I join, it's 160 or more.

[silk tundra]

Currently most hardcore servers that are any good are switching to crawl on death, and it's been putting me off in a significant way

[dense holly]

Why? I love crawl on death, making players so they can't be revived is great

Id argue that's more hardcore

We probably shouldn't even talk about this here, or the QoL derivatives will be punished

[crisp dragon]

I just want 4 Player Max to start a Server in Portal with No fucking Bots!

[dense holly]

Just like bf4

[crisp dragon]

Yes.
Feels like a punishment not playing with their glorified Bots!🤖

[ocean wagon]

it was good when they banned bots from portal. you could star servers with 1 player

and no dumb farm servers. ppl could actually find proper servers

im convinced they are making portal/server browser crap on purpose so you go to matchmaking and forget this "legacy feature"

[silk tundra]

Denying a player a chance at having another go is dirty and hella toxic

And lowers the value of medics

[dense holly]

I dunno that I feel it's toxic. And I've been revived more with it on coz I crawl outta harms way

If I can that is

[lyric aurora]

I can’t prove it but I genuinely feel like they dont want a actual server browser so that when the games lifecycle ends that communitys cant come back to it or be built like the older bf games were able too. Look at 2042 for example

Shame cause bf6 is so fun

[crisp dragon]

If there crawl time is set to higher limits, its gives them time to crawl away too.

[silk tundra]

Fact of the matter is that it feels unsporting and I don't enjoy it to a tremendous degree =
Also, the amount of times I've seen people go far out of their way to run over to a downed person just to stab them for dogtags is far from low

Dunno, it instantly makes the game feel darker and more sweaty, and in my past experience Battlefield had always been about having good lighthearted fun with the mates

I see how it can appeal to CoD players, though

[past bolt]

https://www.twitch.tv/barisk4 LIVEEEE !!!

[dense holly]

I have joined our breakthrough server as many times as I can in the last 20 minutes and each time, It still shows no players

no players , ping 39 ( good ping) x 2

4th try (that I started counting) and it worked, shows players and good ping

[wintry brook]

I've redone my keybinds etc along the lines of a recent video I saw teaching you how to fly in BF6 (am on PC), but man...I got in a heli yesterday and it was insane! All I could do right is go up and down. Yawing left and right, trying to go forward....I got no chance to right myself. I really need to find a server (through the portal I guess) that is empty and I can just practice flying. I tried searching for one but when I joined it I had no option to deploy so gave up. Is there a server/code where we can practice flying?

[icy spade]

It’s starting to get ridiculous now

I just wanna play with bots alone how is this a hard concept lol

[ornate oak]

Does anyone know the code or name of the game experience to the custom gamemode where you have a team of players on a platform with rpgs and a team of players in jets. The goal for the jets is to knock of the players on the platform, while the goal for the players on the platform is to shoot down the gets with RPGs?

Additionally, is there any face to face gamemodes like in GTA with the vehicles in battlefield?

[final verge]

It would be just as easy to have portals in the friends list somehow, either by creator hosting and in profile showing their hosting

[sullen quest]

are they never making the official mode portal servers 60 hz?

[carmine talon]

Doubtful, I don't think anything with Portal in their agenda at all . Also there is zero interactive communication between consumers and EA representative - Community managers regards of Portal - feedback data. Microsoft Copilot - Google's Gemini - or any other chat AI are more interactive than paid employee , companies in United States and EU are very generous.

[dense holly]

So how do I add the new ice maps to my rotation?

Seems like its only for regular players?

[lean stag]

does the stupid fucking global quota ever go down from exceeded?

[mild sentinel]

They update the portal and they still haven’t fix it properly to bring back the portal the way it was at launch.

I still want a portal where you only need 1 player to start a matchup, especially when they’re playing by themselves on the server they created and the bots fill up empty maps in any game mode up to 64.

[spring summit]

Does portal come with a reference to server settings that would allow for progression? Or will custom servers have no chance of allowing progression for weapons/vehicles.

Completely new to Godot/Scripting, but I would like to make an effort to create game settings that push the progression eligibility to the extreme. I've seen on google/reddit pages that bot farming has caused BF to rethink how progression is acheived, but I have no reference to what would cause a server to lose its progression ability.

There still has to be a way to accelerate progression while being in a competitive/balanced game.

[carmine talon]

It's not about being competitive -balanced game, there are microtransactions - battle pass ( marketing- gun packages) . There is no chance BF6 being competitive game "Esports level" under this net code and how weapon systems works. When it comes to their marketing managing, it's very limited , no vision or intuition. They just copy/paste and as long as it is working, no need to change or alter it.

[spring summit]

I was wanting to use the word competitive in the sense that the experience I wanted to make using Portal wouldn't be a set-them-up-shoot-them-down type of game with no skill or effort needed to succeed.
My idea of an accelerated progression game would be one where the basic game is just accelerated in everyway. Shorter respawns, increased rate of fire, faster player speeds, etc. Anything that can speed up how many points a player can achieve in a shorter time period.

I just don't know what metrics would disqualify the game mode from having progression enabled.

[scenic hatch]

Strike 5 is ass makes it not even hardcore anymore with the “qol” and the crawling in death is the most irritating thing

[dense holly]

Enough players have asked me to keep making them new servers, If it aint your cup of tea, there are plenty of others!

[carmine talon]

They had mayhem mode which provides accelerated gameplay and progression was enabled. For metrics , best place is BF Portal Hub Discord where Godot/Scripting are heavily being managed.

[carmine talon]

You know the New World servers were Stats enabled while keeping the hardcore setup and other tweaks. You can't have that on your creations? I've seen BadBoys - TBG and others were also could not enable stats with their creations. Have they removed it completely with latest update or some settings preventing it ?

[dense holly]

20 player start

[mellow chasm]

Some say stats don't work even with with full pvp. I think stats were temporarily disabled in Portal.

[placid gale]

I don’t need stats/progression in my portal!

I need the ability to FORCE my FOV to 90 in 1PV, and 120 while ADS…“useful features”

Portal should be for TESTING cool things, not side-stepping the ‘grind’

Test or Pay-to-Play, 🤷🏼‍♂️ if you want all weapons and attachments, on DAY 0…

Then pay for it…

DICE pushing portal to featured is an amazing update to see 🔥

[glacial lake]

While I am excited to see that Dice is featuring Portal, I still wish they would feature a few Vanilla Conquest maps in each region so we can have a persistent experience with a full rotation of the maps before a map repeat happens.. oh yeah, 60 hz servers too..

Just like Grandma Dice used to make.
(Portal hasn’t been The Great Appeasement for those of us who have been begging for a server browser for 5 years… even if they told us Portal would be that appeasement)

[fiery coral]

Dice doesn't do portal :')

[mellow chasm]

It's Ripple Effect, isn't it?

Yeap, so another studio is in charge of Portal/Server Browser.

[silk tundra]

Please, we need the minimum player count to start a match lowered to something reasonable, like 4 real players

Also kindly add the mini scout to the weapons list in restrictions in the editor so it's possible to properly disable sniper rifles

(Now that they did mention they read suggestions here)

Oh yeah, and we desperately need the ability to move between teams + autobalancing between matches

Well good job to Ripple Effect for pushing Portal more

[tight trout]

That's a portal bug, which is probably being caused by the overloading of portal's server capacity

keep on trying, and maybe try refreshing

[crisp dragon]

You have to resend your server to publishing in the builder again and this will correct that issue.

Happens every update from here on out so get used to doing that.

I usually warn in chat, and if there's no reaction, I kick.
If they come back the next day and do the same thing, that's a ban.

I don't like doing it, especially if the reason is as stupid as "they forgot to add the mini scout to the weapon restrictions list so it cannot be disabled and has to be manually enforced"

I don't understand why the mini scout is the only one missing. They've added every other battle pass weapon, but ignored that one?

[dry vector]

it was a mini oversight

[dense tapir]

Anyone know of any portal options that have REDSEC health and armor?

Would love to test some guns.

Thank you in advance!

hello

i finally found the channel omg
uh i need help
im trying to make a hide and seek mode, but the script is saying there are too many errors

is bf6 not support real type script or
Wait NVM I think I figured it out

[hushed cedar]

🎮 EXPERIENCE CODE: z3ymq

Smokestorm Bounties is a Battlefield Portal mod that introduces a high-stakes, risk-and-reward economy system. The core objective is not just to defeat opponents, but to secure cash to win the match.

🎯 Core Objective & Gameplay
The match is a 30-minute race to secure wealth for your team, culminating in an intense overtime period.

Earn Cash from Combat: Defeat enemy players to seize their cash.
Normal Takedown Reward: $150
Storm Takedown Bonus: Defeating opponents inside the Smokestorm grants a 1.5x multiplier.
Secure the Bounty: The player carrying the most cash (minimum $3,500) is marked as a Bounty Target, making them visible to enemies but offering a huge reward ($4,000 base + 15% of their cash) upon defeat.
Deposits & Victory: You must physically deposit your cash at one of the few rotating Cash Depots to secure it for your team.
The Goal: The first team to reach a total deposited cash of $125,000 triggers the final Overtime (Bonus Round).
Deposits are Risky: Only 2 of 3 deposit points are open at a time, creating strategic choke points and tension.

[frail shore]

Hey guys, I have "action needed" on my custom experiences, but have no script errors. Is this a normal thing? Additionally, it's been days since I created/published, and I still cannot see it under My Experiences in game. Any fixes?

[next sonnet]

Same issue here
Double check on the right side of your script if it's highlighted in red then there are errors
If not then it's something to do with a previous setting

[spiral locust]

Yes, at the end of each round squads should be moved between sides to balance before the next round starts. Also switching sides is essential.

And as Coffee said we need the round start threshold lowered to 4 or less for portal conquest mode with or without bot backfill.

[hushed cedar]

This means something in your script is broken, try and revert the last change and then work your way up. For some reason it never tells you what the error is and the logs are useless. But this usually means the script can’t run.

[stuck knoll]

i have to call it out otherwise im gonna tweak, the update thats going live tomorrow along with the notes associated with it almost feels like an insult.. we were complaining about this stuff back in the beta..and on release..and since then.. what doesnt make sense to me, is how you guys clearly understand what we all complain about yet it took the game releasing and waiting 2 months post release for you guys to finally admit that we were right..

I love playing what ifs... and Ive got a good one here, what if it was 2012, what if you couldnt just drop 10 gigabyte patches whenever you realize your game isnt as finished as you thought it was? Ill tell you what, you wouldnt release the game until youre confident it works as it should...you know who hasnt changed their game development philosophy? Rockstar Games..wanna know how many players love Rockstar Games? Who am I kidding, its EA, you guys love money, you know exactly how much we love Rockstar..be more like Rockstar..and less like Activision..or dont listen..again..and backtrack in 3 months...again...im sure its a great business strategy that totally wont backfire on you...again...

[silk tundra]

Of all the companies to use an example, you chose Rockstar???

[carmine talon]

lol

They have far better games though. EA went downhill in Quality while 2K is still somewhat keeping the core.

Rival companies once, EA has failed copying GTA (with All points Bulletin) and we know how it went lol. Also Golden days of BioWare has long gone too.

EA not only killed Medal of Honor series , but also killed BioWare titles too . FIFA is also very mediocre too now . DICE is not DICE we know too.

EA is still somewhat artificially standing, because there is no strong competition out there in gaming industry. There are only few companies out there for us to pick.

No competition = Low Quality products.

[spiral locust]

Looks like a lot of fixes to be fair and if they work then that's great, however
... fix the damn portal Lobby round start threshold and lower it from 20 to 4 or less!

[peak fjord]

Bf6 low quality? 😂😂😂

[carmine talon]

Not to you it seems. I mean , people like Mcdonald's too, you know. If we look at the timeline , each game and services , we can find out which one better and which ones worse in quality. If we are talking about BF6, let us look at "Netcode " " SinglePlayer Campaign" - " Game Breaking bugs - exploits" - Limited Portal experience - Map design - Level Design - Server Browser - Community Servers - , What we see here superior to old titles? Other than exploits and bugs lol.

[peak fjord]

Some will say original tetris is superior to tetris 3000

[carmine talon]

They can, but they have to list the reasons Why and then we can see if their opinions - critics are valid or not.

[peak fjord]

It shouldnt be that deep you know

[azure lantern]

trynna get into a lobby w. just bots for breakthrough but they cap at 12 total bots, does it require 10 humans to start a match? Or how can I bypass that and just have a match for full bots

[carmine talon]

So what we do ? Just speculate and bend the facts , joke around . There are times for that, not this time lol. Dude 3x above you did compare 2K vs EA and i just did add some facts .

[peak fjord]

Whats 2k?

[carmine talon]

2k interactive - Rockstar (Gaming Company). GTA, Red Dead Redemption and other games.

[peak fjord]

Just enjoy the games you play

[carmine talon]

I play the games I do enjoy. Not other way around , but ty for your enthusiasm !

[crisp dragon]

FACTS! THIS HAS TO BE DONE OR PORTAL IS DEAD 💯💔

[kind mantle]

This affects every portal server or specific game modes? Sorry ive been running mine locally while developing it

Also, any map makers around??👀

[lusty tendon]

Anyone have a portal code or name for a server that lets you practice against bots with armor (redsec)?

All I see is the 200hp one... but that is just health, not armor plates, which behave differently.

[next sonnet]

so im following a yt that does script writing for bf6 portals from a month ago but im just getting errors, even though im copying them exactly

is there any updated video on the proper commands

[magic garnet]

Does anyone know what time the snow update releases?

[oak pumice]

it's out now

[shut skiff]

oh nice this new patch just completely yeeted the whole solo pve experience (like there was much to begin with) bots wont even completely fill matches anymore

Yall advertise that youre gonna give ppl the pve experience like in bf2042 but again, it just keeps gets snatched away, just annoying 😭

[fossil arch]

Damn this is actually so sad. Why?? It doesnt even give XP anymore.

Like BF2042 has a better Portal mode at this point

[short vine]

omg , they broke MAIN PAGE of game for game-mod selection

[vale kernel]

Main menu is completely messed up

So annoying, anything I click on takes me into ea connect unless I close the game and reload it

[peak fjord]

in 15 minutes if your read the post #game-news message

[slate fox]

Anyone been wrongfully banned yet from one of these bot lobbies? I have for the first time in my life of gaming. I'm thinking it was from me joining some bot lobby on the portal and I don't even play on those as this was the first time I've even tried them. It was one that one of my buddies found. The real sad thing is that he had joined this thing after I even got banned. Anyone know how long it usually takes EA to figure out this mistake? It's going on 3 days now stuck in "waiting on studio"

[silk tundra]

Oh my god they finally added the mini scout to the list

[peak fjord]

You made a ticket on ea support?

[mellow chasm]

Anyone got snow on Empire State map in Portal?

There's no new map in editor so I guess snow should be on existing map.

[dense holly]

I want to know the same thing

[mellow chasm]

I don't see it in builder

But now playing Empire and it's without snow in Portal

[wintry brook]

does anyone here have a code for a portal server to practice flying on?

[silk tundra]

If it's not on portal I've no interest in it

[dense holly]

I don't use match making unless I'm playing a Nintendo game

[carmine talon]

You must have had software running on backround that might triggered the ban. Bans are mostly issued by anti-cheat and anti-cheat runs on kernel level. It does not ban people playing the game or portal.

Unless you are reported (voice chat- bad name - anything against TOS. They should tell you within Ban Mail though.

[silk tundra]

Also I refuse to play EA's FOMO game with the time-limited crap out of principle.

[carmine talon]

Lost ARK anti-cheat was banning people due to inactivity - reasoning "Bot Farming" . But they lift bans in a day if you appeal when they do wrongfully.

[dry vector]

ice mode is dumb anyway, the regen next to the fire is ridiculously slow

[silk tundra]

Splendid

[dry vector]

that is if you can even click to play the mode with the menu bugged

seems they broke more than they fixed, how do you mess up the firing range of all things

[carmine talon]

Firing Range was buggy even before update lol

The Division Firing Range took some time for them fix too. It ain't simple as it looks probably lol.

[dry vector]

the hit boxes are messed up now, you can hit to the right and above the target, it's also locked to the new menu fps setting

[carmine talon]

Game updates are like Bios updates lol. Scary and break more things than fixes lol.

[mellow chasm]

Also, they have done something to tickets.

[lofty pivot]

Did you have secure boot running? I've seen some people catch bans for trying to get around it.

[mellow chasm]

1000% reinforcement setting is just 1k tickets now.

[silk tundra]

They have sanity checks in place. I couldn't set a 2-hour round timer, for example, it kept defaulting to 60 minutes.

[mellow chasm]

Yeah, 1k tickets are max now. Doesn't matter what settings you put on reinforcements.

[silk tundra]

Sane Defaults (TM) Hardcore Conquest is back and, as usual, needs 7 more players to start. I've spent an hour or more waiting in the lobby, only one person joined and instantly left. This might take a while.

Remember when games were fun instead of your second job? Welcome to a BF4-style HC server, with a few pleasant twists. Players say this feels like the good old Battlefield. 40 players, only medics can revive, 90% run speed, sliding and 1-hit long-range weapons are off, resulting in a game that caters towards a slower, more thoughtful style of play.

Experience code is Z1FAR, else you can search for Sane Defaults.

Judging by the ping, we are in Europe.

#screenshots-and-clips message

[brisk garden]

They don’t ban for that

[silk tundra]

I'm legit contemplating buying like seven old motherboards, equipping them with Ryzen 5 2400Gs and a minimal amount of RAM to start the game, and picking up seven more copies of the game so I can just start the round myself.

[slate fox]

Just to put more information for them to attach to the appeal

[slate fox]

I have over 200hrs on the game in multiplayer...nothing has changed.

[cinder oyster]

Build a community with your server create a discord. We have about 370 members in ours. And we usually start seeding around noon and get filled by one. We also run a hard-core community

[silk tundra]

I don't have the kind of patience or mental fortitude needed to run a community for a PvP game in the year 2025

[cinder oyster]

You were just saying you were going to buy 7 old motherboards 😆

[silk tundra]

That's different. That just requires money, which I do have.

The only thing stopping me is the fact that it would be utterly stupid

[carmine talon]

Then instead of buying motherboards bloating your room, buy 7 Geforce now account 🙂

[silk tundra]

You can play this over GeForce Now?

[carmine talon]

Yup

[silk tundra]

Incredible

[lofty pivot]

Might even work with EA play pro on each account instead of buying the game? Lol. I thought about doing the same thing, but I'll just play other games until they give us the portal bot backfill we paid for at launch.

[mellow chasm]

That's what it is being an admin

[silk tundra]

I know that, I'm just saying I value my time and sanity too much to engage in it

[carmine talon]

It works with EA play (no need pro) as game released already.

[flint plume]

You would do that then EA would either eliminate the min player feature or it would be increased to like 20..

[flint plume]

You would still need 7 other ways to play the game. I thought about seeding the server with a few Xbox and PC’s but 8 is a lot of devices..

[carmine talon]

Well workarounds are always there. They are just managing the flow, they cut portal to keep the flow for quickplay-redsec. They are doing things for purpose, they have the data we don't have. But imo, they should show a little bit of courtesy and sanity by letting people having a little bit breathing room.

[dense holly]

wtf is this, I just noticed

I had all of mine set to 150

[mellow chasm]

I have 1000% on tickets, have only 1k tickets now

[craggy dagger]

does bot even fills in portal or what, just wanna try to play some casual conquest when i join it will always only put 13 out of 64

[mellow chasm]

They were 10k before

[mellow chasm]

Had to set cap time to max. Otherwise matches were 10 minutes.

[lofty pivot]

Its limited to 12 bots since season 1, they nerfed portal to get rid of bot farms.

[craggy dagger]

o dang

[lofty pivot]

Try experience code Z55H4

[dense holly]

they cant do anyuthing right

[craggy dagger]

tried doing that, none of them works

[lofty pivot]

Well, if they nerfed that I'm uninstalling and playing arc. This game went downhill since launch.

[craggy dagger]

🥀

i just only played that code for the jet gameplay

[lofty pivot]

I played casual conquest with the hopes of hosting a game and we had a nice little 5v5 with active chat and 64 bots, practicing vehicle warfare like you. Was fun while it lasted. Might just need creators to edit their experiences and reupload, unless dice removed the ability to edit bot count in the server file.

[craggy dagger]

mhm

tbh they should like kind of add a settings where if u want to have 64 bots to paratice with, there will be a opition to disable full xps (of course if your only here for bots gameplay then atleast add that feature)

[dense holly]

how do players like servers now?

sorry " Experiences"

[warped heath]

YOOOO MY DUDES AND DUDETTES! Is Portal still useless in 1.1.3.0?

[wild shell]

why would they add the new snow/ice map to portal but for a limited time only??? So if I make a map using the new parts I just don't get to enjoy it when january rolls around? wtf

such a shame

[river trench]

Does portal allow any level of scripting now? I tried the web UI and didn't see any options.

[median kestrel]

So dice has seen reports of stuttering but haven’t they seen reports about the menu bug when everything you click takes you to EA Connect?

[lofty tusk]

remove 20 players needed ! Listen to US, we want to play with more than 3 friends (in my group we are 7), Sometimes we just want to chill, BOTS are Perfect to chill sometimes, we want to play how we like, sometimes in MP, sometimes in Portal with our personal XP and earn something, playing without earning anything is just useless...

PLS do something ! Take the decision to come back like the first day is the best choice !

[lofty tusk]

Dice and EA are killing BF years after years

[teal mauve]

Also. Why is there only one (1) official hardcore mode and also time limited? Why isn’t there just every mode also available as hardcore for ever as a regular mode for the player to choose? I don’t get it… also almost every hc eu server is empty… is this game already dying?

[dense holly]

I do my very best to launch all my hardcore servers so the eu ping is at 100, I have a few guys that pay from Italy with us

Strike 5

[keen ravine]

menu BUG ???

[lofty tusk]

if you go inside option menu and then back to first menu you will have a bug

[keen ravine]

I played Domination with the new winter map and when I returned to the menu it wouldn't let me select anything

[lofty tusk]

welcome to BAtLefeD

[humble pilot]

yes, it's typescript. When creating any custom mode you can use the rules editor / scripting panel on the left to get to it

[dense holly]

Does anyone know why they locked portal tickets to 100%

[mellow chasm]

UK based. Search Instakill or 10HP, set slots to Any.

[dense holly]

LOL, 10 HP, Getting hit with a throwable is -2HP

[mellow chasm]

We love it

Anybody looking for an interesting challenge? Ultra Hardcore Server : Infantry 20%HP / Vehicles 30% HP / Movement 90% / No slide / No DMR / 100% XP / CODE : ZAFX3

[crisp dragon]

Seriously, they still kept the 20 player max start for non bot filled servers. Fucking devs are a joke 🖕

[dry lava]

that's such a handicap 😭

[crisp dragon]

Its horse poo is what it is!

[plush basin]

To the Devs monitoring this thread... Why would you take away the ability to have PvE Solo/Co-op settings just now??? All the servers I ran now REQUIRE 20 live players to get any kind of progression matches. You think your forcing players to do your new and improved Winter Empire maps... it is not enticing at all. I hate sweaty lobbies when I just want to enjoy a few games with MY friends, like the LAN party days of old. Bring back PvE Solo/Co-op, with progression.

[silk tundra]

I do. High ticket servers made dumb "do this thing this many times in a match" challenges infinitely easier.

[dense holly]

yeah but, 150% isnt at all a stretch, its been the standard for my servers since bf4... also, their own servers are 120%

[crisp dragon]

The 20 player count needs to go away for sure!
Make it 4 like it was in the other games or just non at all like 2042! Its not reinventing the wheel but they seam to think they need too. Its annoying

[silk tundra]

The fact that portal gets fewer tickets now seems like yet another poorly disguised attempt to kill portal

[crisp dragon]

Agreed, they only want us playing they're 20 other game modes and dont give 2 twigs about real Portal Players.

[silk tundra]

Well, I'm not going to give two craps about the game (and your precious store; you hear that, EA?) until I can actually start a game on my portal server every evening like it happened before the 20p wall was erected

[crisp dragon]

Even if we wanted to we cant. Im over this stuff at this point too, battlefield was the only game that I was interested in and now that this is gone I just want to be done with it.

[silk tundra]

I'm gonna go back to my system administration hobby

[crisp dragon]

I dont know what that means but good luck...

[silk tundra]

Basically pretending you're an IT infrastructure engineer but not being paid for it

It's fun

[crisp dragon]

Oh. Ok. Well good luck with it. Maybe get into working with Dice-Ea so you can change the settings to 4 players to start a match😂😂

[silk tundra]

I currently work for a global, privately owned, public-benefit company that lets me do cool stuff and make positive impact at the scale of entire countries, and I'm not about to change that :D

[mild sentinel]

I said this last time about they should bring back the old portal at launch. You only need one player to start a matchup while they are playing by themselves and the bots should be up to 64

[plush basin]

Here, here!!!

[raven nest]

idk how your gonna do a workaround with this new update but having a real player requirement to start a game is bs

When will fan made maps/modes be featured on the homescreen?

[flint plume]

Menu's not working for everyone I take it?

[dry vector]

when the homescreen actually works

[lofty cradle]

We also need full XP and progression so players will actually play those fan made maps.

[noble oar]

Do the devs know this? whats the best way to reach the devs?

[dry vector]

custom has always only been match bonus otherwise people really would take advantage with insane bot farms, there's no reason verified modes shouldn't get full xp and be able to have full bots though especially since they supposedly made the bots less stupid this patch

[lofty cradle]

I'm pretty sure they know about it.. just a matter of prioritizing it.. You can post on their website in the battlefield section. https://forums.ea.com/category/battlefield-6-en

[merry mantle]

https://youtu.be/fwrEEADMTDw?si=NY9hs4-49hWG_QrV

Made a fire range if someone wants to try

[carmine talon]

There are boosting websites are selling boost with bot lobbies (player accounts act like bots for level-xp). You should completely disable XP in Portal then to prevent farming. Atm EA is directing everyone towards third party boosters. Corruption in gaming industry is just too much. Sell games make revenue , sell information make revenue, sell boosters make revenue. Stupid as it gets, greed does to people.

[keen nymph]

Is anyone else's game just not downloading the update

I tried like 4 times and instantly it fails the update

Oh shit I'm in the wrong chat

[shut skiff]

I bought bf6 partially bc of the solo bot pve they promised cuz i think its a neat way to just have fun without dealing with ppl and it just sucks they just took it away, i really hate being told that i should be playing the game a certain way when they specifically advertised the game to have that experience, like the option SHOULD be there for ppl who want it and let ppl have fun

I mean i play with other ppl just fine, i personally think having the option alone and ppl liking is good, basically let them have cake and eat it too

[lyric aurora]

when did they announce a solo pve experience lol

[shut skiff]

I mean im pretty sure they said theyll do the solo experience for this game

well regardless the option should be there anyways

[crisp dragon]

And how about servers that dont want bots? Those should still breed full xp becuase they done want those freaking bots anyway!
The 20 Max Player should only be for Boted servers and the non bot servers should be at max 4 players. They are killing the portal for players wanting a genuine server in doing this and its painful to watch...

[crisp dragon]

At the launch of this. It was supposed to be open XP and they were going to try and get ahead of the farm servers.
It didnt work and now they are back peddling and punishing the Servers that dont want their useless precious bots!
Battlefield DEVS are just a bunch of BOTSUCKERS

[ocean wagon]

pls join this custom server. no xp but its part of BR map conquest. the more the better! "gulf of lyndon"

this instantly feels more like battlefield

[torn raptor]

Why don't you fix it quickly? DICE

[crisp dragon]

Sucks bc it dosent breed full xp.

[crisp dragon]

Because the want us playing with their precious bots!

[tall silo]

I thought Battlefield 6 would have full PvE, and at least that the XP gained would be moderate, like in 2042, but I find there's no PvE, and I can't even play because all the menus are locked. There's no doubt this game is a complete rip-off and a huge waste of money. What a disappointment!

[next sonnet]

What's the script for tdm

[fossil arch]

I've gone back to 2042 for PVE ngl.

Shame about BF6, literal bait and switch. PVE was so fun during launch week so I logged many hours, then they obliterate it. I cant even get a refund.

[lyric aurora]

😂😂😂😂

[silent kestrel]

hey guys does anyone know why my custom map where I set up to spawn 31 bots per team isn't spawning anything?

I made a custom experience with static bots, set it to 32 and it says it's out of range so I made it 31, but nobody is spawning in

I can't paste screenshots here, basically 1 team has 1 player and 31 static bots. The other team has 32 static bots. Nothing is spawning in

[true quest]

for your sanity bots spawned from the portal setup don't seem to be working atm

spawning from an AI spawner works still

[silent kestrel]

really... does anything ever work in this game

hmmm how do i do that? I tried looking at the mod creator thing but quickly gave up

[true quest]

most things work if you're creative enough.

scripting is the easiest/hardest way.

but in short, you have to place an AI spawner in Godot editor, give it an object ID, then set that objectID inside scripting to call mod.SpawnAIFromAISpawner()

place AI Spawner in Godot - object ID 1234

const testAISpawner = mod.GetSpawner(1234)

mod.SpawnAIFromAISpawner(testAISpawner)

that should get you started

[silent kestrel]

Godot? Do I need to download the SDK to do that?

I thought it would be doable from the website T_T

[void needle]

Yes, in custom modes you can script

[silent kestrel]

are all portal game modes involving bots basically broken now?

i literally can't get anything working now and i dont really want to download and install the sdk

[fossil arch]

Yes. No gamemode is playable with bots only, even custom ones.

[mellow chasm]

Verified work with bots. What do you mean?

Only bot farms don't work.

[fossil arch]

They dont. Try running a Portal Conquest match right now with bots only. They will only fill up until 10-14 players, and thats it. You have to wait for players. Even with custom gamemodes that have no xp.

Yes the official modes in the main menu still have full bots, but we're talking about Portal here

[mellow chasm]

I have Portal server up

But I have about 40 players right now. Started like 30 minutes ago.

[fossil arch]

Are they bots? I was talking about playing with bots earlier. You cannot set up a server for PVE anymore as the bots spawned is too low.

[mellow chasm]

Ah, that yes. That was patched. But I have botz enabled because it's easier to get 8 people rather than 20.

[obsidian dagger]

What’s with broken update?

[cedar mango]

the illusion of the "stable gameplay" fell apart

[obsidian dagger]

I feel like bf6 wasn’t meant to last long… just until gta6 in spring. Now with gta6 pushed to fall next year devs have nothing to add… just break the game

[cedar mango]

I completely disagree. If you were here for other BF titles you'd surely know this one is a much richer experience. It's just that there is something horribly messed up in either their servers or their estimations for recommended specs.

[obsidian dagger]

All you get in this season is pick axe and snow? Really…

[cedar mango]

that's just an event bro. "this season" ends in January and I am barely through half of the pass

[obsidian dagger]

Fingers crossed I am wrong and we see good content… right now it’s lame

[cedar mango]

I honestly do not even care about content, I just want to play the game stutter free for a change

[spiral locust]

1 to start is OK. 4 would also be good and ruins the plans of the selfish solo bot farmers. Do not want 64 bots ever, but if its configurable from 0 to 32 per side then fine, so I can turn them off.

[mellow chasm]

Yeah, 1 player for pvp servers. It was like this before last change.

[dense holly]

Ummm... no

All the bfs prior to 1 were far more complex at launch. Us they were buggy too but had way more in terms of content

Mtpp0

[crisp dragon]

They need to turn off the Max player start if your server has no bots. Plain and simple.

[dense holly]

I just saw a server or two with winter mode conquest? has anyone figured that out?

[proven veldt]

It’s Christmas time devs are peacing out. S2 will show what the live service for this game is really going to be could be good could be terrible

If they were smart since seasons are 3 months long and updates every month they will do two new maps and a remaster every season

[frigid furnace]

I'd just be happy if I could play the game before this last update I had zero issues...now the game crashes to desktop and 3 to 4 files won't validate...happens every single time even after I verify integrity and re-download ...I'll finally have a decent amount of time to play....and I can't

[kind mantle]

Ok i managed to spawn them, but they are not responding to being hit, also how can i change the team they spawn on?

On another note, im trying to build an infected game mode. Is there any way to change player models or appearence?

[thorn phoenix]

Portal any good nowadays?

[desert vine]

Just Remove the portal and put in the server browser just like battlefield 4 and put DICE official servers

The whole portal fucked up the game

[mild sentinel]

👎👎🚫🚫 I disagree what you just said and that’s the lamest idea I’ve ever heard in my entire life

[dense holly]

in what way? that made sense to me

[mild sentinel]

Do you understand what you’re talking about or not?

“4 would also be good and ruins the plans of the selfish solo bot farmers. Do not want 64 bots ever, but if it’s configurable from 0 to 32 per side then fine, so I can turn them off.”

Really? You hate having 64 bots? and about 64 players? You hate that too?

[dense holly]

I actually do hate having bots at all

I want 4p start with no bots

[mild sentinel]

You can do that just create your own server with no bots.

[dense holly]

then its 20p start, thats the part we are against

[mild sentinel]

Let me remind you. There are other people who prefer to play with bots and not rely on the players. They just want to chill out by themselves or with a friend, just to do grinding and unlocking their favorite weapons

[dense holly]

right, so like he said, allow us to set the bots and have 4p start

I want to set mine to 0 and have 4p start

I dont care what you do as long as bot farms dont fill up the servers like they did

[true quest]

I haven't encountered them not responding to hits unless they're on the same team as me with friendly fire off. Changing teams is broken as well from my experience I can't even change my own team past team 1/2 and even then it's buggy

[true quest]

Inside mod.spawnaifromspawner() you can specify the soldier class using - Mod.SoldierClass.Assault / engi / supp / recon

So mod.spawnai(spawner, Mod.SoldierClass.Assault) like this

The skin probably not as they're earned/paid for

[spiral locust]

Thougt you might but honestly don't care about people that want to play solo in a multiplayer.

[spiral locust]

Play tetris

[mild sentinel]

Who the hell plays that old ancient game? What a stupid idea

[mellow chasm]

Yeah, casual breakthrough. They should add more modes to it and that's it. And in Portal bots disabled for verified experiences . Just pure pvp there.

[crisp dragon]

Forget all that stuff!
Bottom line is you should only have to have 4 players to start a match!
If people want to play in a server vs just bots fine, but it shouldn't breed full xp.

[rose quiver]

So glad i farmed for 8 hours of my life and got everything level 50

[light root]

Ignore that guy he always cry about bots and i bet he farm bots he wont share his stats

[light root]

They can simply remove bots in portal and bring back solo/coop feature from bf2042

[mellow chasm]

Exactly this or Casual Playlist.

[light root]

Both would be great more ppl would be pleased 😌

[mellow chasm]

Only bot farmers will cry because they can't get their guns in 20 minutes.

[light root]

Exactly the 1% that ruined the game for the rest of us

[kind mantle]

Any place to share some editor rules? I mare a cool bullet knockback

I need a zombie skinnn

[lyric aurora]

Have they fixed portal yet?

[silk tundra]

No

[flint plume]

Portal still sucks.

[low ice]

yo yo, anyone have a good experience code for a range for vehicles that also also customization? Found three, tried them but can't swap stuff out. Ty ty in advance

[void needle]

depends on what you wanted to get fixed 😂

[upper scarab]

portal still needs bots to get the servers started, even if killing the bots awards nothing

[dense holly]

are stats tracking in portal?

[sage merlin]

Anyone notice the modifiers are not working since the update? eg slider options/bullet velocity and fall damage also scoreboard was always stuck in ffa but fixable with blocks

[crisp dragon]

Portals still 20 max players to start and its horse crap! Dice needs to fix this asap

[flint plume]

At this point just take portal down and admit it's broken - give it back to us when it's fixed.

No Winter addition to portal
Bots are a mess
We don't know what is going on with XP
Players can't start created experiences with out seeding
No real way to showcase popular experiences
We need to be professional game devs to undo the broken GDOT "experience"

That's just a few things wrong with portal.

They give a sandbox map 2 updates ago and to date, that sandbox map is broken.

Most of us Conquest guys, you know the game mode that BF was build on - do not enjoy these smaller maps. We wants a full combined arms experience. At this point jets are useless as they simply fly 360's because the map is so small. How would EA even introduce naval warfare, artillery, transport? All I need a is a 4 wheeler, rocket and something that shoots a decent ROF.

[dry lava]

We are only missing 3 persons to start the server, Ultra Hardcore Server : Infantry 20%HP / Vehicles 30% HP / Movement 90% / No slide / No DMR / 100% XP / CODE : ZAFX3

[silk tundra]

So they release a "full transparency and clarity" post with the issues they are tracking and community feedback they heard, and there's not a single word about the Portal situation

I call shenanigans

[dry lava]

Missing 3 persons on our Ultra Hardcore Server : RUSH Infantry 20%HP / Vehicles 30% HP / Movement 90% / No slide / No Sniper/DMR / 100% XP / CODE : ZAJ1F

[faint canopy]

It's totally broken. And even if you make a Custom Conquest Map it doesn't give you any XP

Even if you dont change a single thing.

Even one of the featured Portal Modes does not give XP

[dry lava]

Missing 2 !!

[ionic olive]

On my way!

I see it show up in experiences in Portal but I can’t join

[dry lava]

ah sorry we stopped because nobody came for a very long time

[eternal tartan]

this is all i want. lower the xp and progression and let me play pve while still making some progression on unlocks. i dont care if it takes me twice as long to unlock as a pvp player

[ionic olive]

Genuinley the only reason why I want to join an XP Farm is the same reason as in 2042, Battle Passes take a godly amount of time, and I paid for it, so I should be able to unlock the content

[crisp dragon]

And thats the reason Portal will die with this game if they keep going this way!

I did email one of the comunity managers on this issue and Im hoping for a response soon.
I suggested a 4 player max start because thats what most of these guys in here have preached! Hopping for an answer this week...

[dry vector]

there was nothing in the latest post about portal either was there

just gaslighting about how they are working on improvements based on player feedback... you mean all the stuff you broke with the new update

The team has been reviewing all reports since the update, including items related to Breakthrough, the Firing Range, Portal, the Main Menu, and performance topics such as micro-stuttering on PC, along with several other issues raised by the community.

there's nothing about portal

[dry lava]

The whole time we waited for someone to come (and we posted here, facebook and reddit), we were talking about this issue. It does not make sense to offer customization and then being forced to play another mode because you've been limited in your options.

[mellow chasm]

At the moment, it's hard to start the server unless your have a community or a clan. Or you need to do heavy advertising.

[crisp dragon]

I get the custom bot servers for xp boosting but to punish the real players trying to fill a real server with no bots seams fucked up

[dry lava]

Another person in a power position in the game industry that definitely should not be there had to make a choice and here is the result 🥹

[lyric aurora]

its hilarious that the firing range was mentioned more then portal in the recent article.

[crisp dragon]

Its fucked that we have to have 20 to start a match in Portal

[lofty pivot]

#game-news message

Indeed. What's more fucked is that after more than a month since Season 1 ruined portal, they haven't communicated about portal one bit.

That's the part that hurts the most. We can deal with major issues, if they are acknowledged. After 200 hours, literally tonight, I finally stopped loving the game and moved on to other games.

[dry vector]

portal wasn't even mentioned, they just said the word portal with no mention of doing anything for it

wins best audio design after just releasing an update where they had to redo the audio

[true quest]

The audio design is great. The implementation however probably wasn't part of the criteria

Honestly after all these years no developer has delivered on what used to come out of the box

Except maybe epic games and Fortnite in terms of longevity

[fossil arch]

It feels like BF alwayss wins game audio. Not that I'm complaining, DICE is good at audio for some reason

[true quest]

Look Battlefield. I even warned you on X about this being the downfall of your games growth. The audio quality is incredible. The thought put into the details of how many sounds were perfect. But you sure did drop the ball on immersion its really what used to be a staple in your games.

How was portal not on par with what Fortnite has to offer?

We could go on for days but hopefully you find someone who actually plays these games to give you the true feedback required to recover from this

[craggy dagger]

portal fixed with the bots thingy?

[silent kestrel]

does portal work yet or is it still not starting any bot matches

i'll take it as a no

[silk tundra]

Yeah nah, nothing is fixed, nothing is even acknowledged in the recent post where they acknowledged all of the issues they are tracking, so they don't care

[lofty pivot]

It's been 45 days since they nuked bot backfill in portal with the season 1 update. It's been 45 days since they acknowledged portal in the patch notes/ official comms. From BF3, to BF4, to BF1 and BF2042, they've learned these lessons already.

They know what works, they know many of us want persistent servers with the same people and chat. After 200 hours, I'm done, taking a break.

Portal not having bot backfill makes it impossible for most of us to host a server. BF6 has a bot farm called Casual Breakthrough on the main menu, so I don't see a good argument against more than 12 bot backfill on an official server template which requires 20 players to even start...

[mellow chasm]

It is because you can modify settings in portal. They should just update Casual Playlist with all modes for pve players.

[lofty pivot]

Not exactly, modified settings are match length and hardcore etc. These are fine for full xp. The issue is bots, and I still think bots are fine for full xp as long as they can fight back.

Look at casual conquest, the official game mode.

[mellow chasm]

Casual Conquest is not official.

[lofty pivot]

I mean breakthrough. But casual conquest is fine too IMO

[mellow chasm]

What I meant is that they should add more modes to Casual Playlist like conquest, rush, escalation etc.

[lofty pivot]

Indeed. These nullify bot farms too.

[mellow chasm]

Yeah, and disable bot xp in portal so that Portal is not spammed with bot farms.

[kind mantle]

What are you guys doing to spawn bots with scripts? Mine are spawning and not moving, any tips to configure their behaviour?

Also if someone knows how to use the raycast function and how to use global and local vectors plz enlighten me

Im trying to do a knockback on bullet hit but im pushing the players inside objects or the map atm

[lofty pivot]

No, make official modes the bot farms as you suggested. That's what casual modes are. Bots and full xp have a place in portal. If they lack guns or are easy to kill? No xp, no progression, no battle pass xp

[mellow chasm]

Full xp yes but not when bot backfill is enabled. That's why previous Portal update was better. Pvp servers 1 player to start the match, full xp. And no xp if bot backfill is enabled.

[lofty pivot]

How will people seed servers without bot backfill and full xp? That's the major issue.

[grim hare]

Wait do you guys don’t like leveling your guns via bot farms?

Been wanting finally finish my some of my challenges I’ve had since day 1 but can’t since I only have 2 days off and bot farms have been helping major to get my weapons to a decent level

[lofty pivot]

How other people enjoy the game doesn't bother me. I work 6 days a week, but I just like hosting portal servers with certain maps and higher ticket count. I can't do this without proper bot backfill, unless you have a code from someone who edited the save file to make it work as it should.

[grim hare]

I see they don’t want to have any so people stay on the game so player counts stay high for their share holders, that’s why I’m NOT going to purchase another battlepass. After finishing my battlepass (thx 2 portal) I realized I don’t have the time to stay on one game for hours for next to nothing for levels on BP

[mellow chasm]

Many full servers before with only 1 player to start. More than now actually with 8 players to start.

[lofty pivot]

Yep. Several issues I hope they address

[mossy coral]

I need a 1vs1 portal code

Or teamdeath match portal code

[dense holly]

so they just want portal to die slowly?

[flint plume]

EA could simply modify their AI to be insanely good. That would fix a lot of issues. If people adjust the core settings then disable XP. Like if you tweak the AI’s health or damage % then you also reduce or even eliminate the XP gained from killing them.

[mellow chasm]

And you didn't need to get bots to have full servers.

[lofty pivot]

Some people have unlimited time to get full servers going. Not everyone is unemployed or has a community discord to pull from. Bot backfill is the answer.

[mellow chasm]

Well, that's how it was. It wasn't hard to get people on without bots when just 1 player needed to start the match. For example now I have 1 full server every day. Before 2-3 servers easily every day.

[crisp dragon]

Still shouldn't have to have 20 players to start a match. Its to much DICE!

[cinder oyster]

Did something change with portal and how people search for servers after this last update? We’re having a hard time getting our server full after seeding with 20 players. Before this update, we could seed pretty quickly and get a full server after 10 minutes. Now it takes us almost a couple of games to get full.

It seems like players can’t search hardcore or conquest to see our active server.

[dense holly]

theres less players, the player count is dropping everyday

they have made it significantly more difficult to find what you want to play than it needs to be

[grim socket]

does anybody have any knowledge on how create ways for groups of like 8 to join into the same online matches
like can i make a portal with a loaded playlist of maps and modes? do i just need to share the playlist somehow?

[mellow chasm]

Advertise or have a community/clan.

[grim socket]

yea im aware of that, that doesn't really answer my question

I'm trying to see if portal is the only way to load at least 8 people into the same matches withought hindering some of the xp loss ive heard on custom portals,

[dry vector]

searching for "verified modes" has been broken for months now also

there was no update to portal in the latest patch this week, what they did was make it worse but notice how that isn't in the patch notes

tried to play infantry conquest and just sat there for 5 min with no one joining and it saying waiting for 20 players because no one can find it and it only allows those 6 bots per team

it's bs

[carmine talon]

Just take a break till S2 , there is nothing can do about If company insist on toxic trend. They want entry to Comp level vs Call of Duty and lemme tell you , they will never able to do that with this mentality. Marky my words.

[lofty pivot]

This, just stop playing. BF6 could have a competitive ladder too, but ppl also want portal with bots who fight back but fill their server, so they can seed and host with slightly different settings without waiting around fro hours, nothing crazy like actual bot farms. I guess the player base will have to die off like in BF2042 before the devs even try enough to save this game with it's dwindling playerbase. Time to play Arc, with OG DICE devs who listen and respond to all feedback, not just ignore major glaring issues like Portal which hasn't seen comms in over 45 days.

[dry vector]

I just want solo/coop mode or a true casual experience, casual breakthrough is not it with only a couple of maps, only 24 players per team, some of the dumb changes they've made to breakthrough, and with everyone going to it now to level up guns it's not casual anymore

[livid mirage]

No hate, but people who are unemployed have genuinely ruined how portal/community servers are now operated. Instead of kicking a truly afk dip stick who’s hosting for 3 days to fill a server because they’ve changed how everything works, they decide to punish everyone for those people exploiting and bot farming. Why? Plus, we all paid for the game. A game you released with portal being a huge reason people bought into this game at all. And now let’s pull the rug on your casual players and make it impossible to have fun on a game THEY PAID FOR.

[dry vector]

the easiest fix is just to let people host games locally, it's so simple

people can do afk farms or whatever they want, who cares cuz they are bothering no one and playing by themselves

that would also serve as solo/coop mode

why it's not allowed is beyond me, people would still be playing the game and buying battlepasses, who cares how fast they get them done

[livid mirage]

☝🏻☝🏻☝🏻 this. But it’s not a good way for EA to make money because then why else would you buy packs, skins, etc. if obtainable through challenges/unlocks

If challenge take longer, more chance buy pack. Ea model, I swear

I just want to play some damn battlefield man. 😅 ya know? Tired of paying for broken games or buying a “idea of what the game may or may not be even after you buy it” crap. I’m just trying to enjoy what little time I get to enjoy my time, ya know?

[flint plume]

I have not even used portal since the update. I stopped editing maps too, no point with the mess we have now.

[livid mirage]

If they just gave the keys to the community and let a few people run it, maaaaaaan. We’d be in business. Community mods are always better then what ea craps out as a sorry attempt to bring back a player base that’s already moved on.

[shut skiff]

why are some ppl here so against people wanting to just play bots by themselves

like i could give a crap about it being a pvp game or my stats cuz it literally doesnt even matter and doesn’t pertain to point that the option was there in bf2042 and people liked having it as an addition and it was gonna be an addition before ea/dice just yeeted it out of orbit

Hello, does anyone know if there will be more features and improvements for all types of vehicles in BF6? Tanks are very weak, helicopters and planes are very weak, they are shot down with old RPGs without aiming!

Even with improved attack capabilities and reinforced armor, they are easily destroyed, and aircraft cannot even escape missiles in outer space.
Many things that were in BF4 are not in BF6 vehicles. If it's a sequel to the war, then where is it?

f*** this, I'm uninstalling bf6 and going back to bf2042, this game is a waste of time unless there is a solo mode with xp progression, I cannot afford couple hours daily to be on par with pros and unemployed players and keep up with challenges, too much responsibilites in real life. BF6 promised Portal with Full XP and that's why I bought the game. We were expecting this Portal to be at least a continuation of the Portal found in BF2042. This expectation was betrayed, and using a "we didn't promise bots with full/partial xp explicitly" excuse is slimy AF.

[south mist]

You’re not alone. My reasons for not playing as much differs slightly but the bottom line is it’s clear EA/DICE refuse to let players play the game the way they want to play….. battlefield players don’t care for long grinding unlocks…mostly. We want the guns we like and do what we can to play well with them.

For all this games does so well, it also does some things very badly. F*** EA.

Man I was so hyped for portal 🙁 I wanted to play all the custom made maps with bots

I was too but they made it so much more difficult to make stuff then they should have. To have to use a separate engine (Godot) then import data to the website to then have to create all the rules and coding way more difficult than it should be.

I don't understand why they couldn't just do what Halo did in Reach with Forge and have an in game editor and have the ability to changes settings around to what you want. Would have been so much easier and Portal would be blowing up right now

[mellow chasm]

Filters > Slots Any. Then sort by player count and hit refresh.

you shouldn't have to do that is the point

should just be able to click on literally any server and play and have full bot backfill if needed/wanted

I feel sorry for the developers who worked on it. They did do a lot of work and its kinda decent, only for management to ignore it after launch and just focus on REDSEC and skins lmao.

Nvm, I wish they actually ignored it at launch. They actively made it worse thru patches lol.

[analog hatch]

I think it was intentionally done, they'll fix it when people stop playing the game to bring more players in

• We've heard your feedback about portal...

1 year later

imagine having basic functions like favoriting a server

[fossil arch]

Now that I think about it, same thing happened with BF2042 lmao. Although at least BF2042 never nerfed Portal, they just ignored it and made small improvements now and then.

[crisp dragon]

Yeah and its gaining votes continuously. Me reposting this shouldn't be a big deal because, IT IS A BIG DEAL!
20 Players to start a match is ridiculous

[manic ridge]

Has anyone found good maps on bf6 that are active? Every portal map. i look up is always empty. I don't see a way to find like custom well made maps.

[lofty pivot]

If anyone played infected 2042 which was 128 players. Zero bots, killstreaks, special infected, amazing fun... that community was epic. We saw thousands of players daily. I even started hosting those servers while unemployed, good times.

But, DICE killed it off by nerfing wingsuit velocity and making it so we couldn't disable guns on infected team...

They royally ruined portal for communities like that by forgetting that portal and MP should have updates suited for one another.

[cerulean kelp]

I personally liked the old community servers without Portal the most.
Back then, you could configure everything freely.

If they would at least expand the server settings and allow proper admin rights, Portal could become interesting again.

I honestly believe that many communities would be willing to pay a monthly fee to rent servers, as long as we get:
• full server configuration options
• real admin tools
• a proper server browser

Right now, the Hardcore community is being completely left behind.

[lyric aurora]

yep still play bf4 today mainly because of community servers

[cerulean kelp]

Yes, community servers are important and need their own settings.

We do have a community server, but it’s getting harder and harder to keep it alive—especially when, compared to DICE servers, we are limited to only 30 tick rate and half of the content can’t be hosted at all.

[lyric aurora]

they asked for feedback and took notes of what players asked in the portal hub discord. hopefully portal becomes better

[cerulean kelp]

I hope so too. I’ve already tried reaching out to people via Twitter and also directly through EA.

[cerulean kelp]

What’s important for Portal:
• 60 Hz servers
• More server configuration options with Full xp
• More modes with full XP
• Platoons
• Protection against copying community servers
And Server Browser

[lyric aurora]

i sent you a discord invite so you can voice your feedback

[dense holly]

I actually like when My server is copied

All it does it get more exposure, What are they gonna do? Out Seed you on yoru own server?

theres like 12 copies of my servers at any given moment and I think only 1 ever got populated

Im actually trying to populate a copy right now

We need

60hz
Verified modes CAN be fed via quick match or whatever its called
More admins
4 player start
bots are fine but, they need to have the same health as players... they are clearly OP in HC
better tools - Admin kill - team balancer - team swap button

[cerulean kelp]

We regularly have 5 copies and only ours is visited

Therefore, there should be copy protection that prevents copying. Copying is just a pointless waste of resources.

[dense holly]

so what are you expecting? players to ask to pay your ruleset?

Seems like it would be extremely annoying to host all my servers if every time I had to okay whoever was hosting for me

sure, the description and name should be locked.

I can get on board with that. But I dont mind HC players in Europe who wish to have a version of mine near them

I have a question: Could you add team switching to Portal?

And a single-player start?

I really love the game, I love it, but I play hardcore on Portal and the content isn't fully available. I love King of the Hill, but it's not available in hardcore and full XP combined.

[cerulean kelp]

No, you don't understand. Clans should have an option to prevent their servers from being copied. That way, if someone doesn't want their server copied, it won't be, and those who do want it copied don't have to activate the option to prevent copying.

I used to pay monthly for my server and could always configure it however I wanted.

And that would prevent those bot weapon leveling servers from coming back. I'd rather have a 60 tick rate server with free settings, full XP, and a small monthly fee than a 30 tick rate server with restricted portals. After all, EA servers also cost money.

[dense holly]

Sure, an option to flip it on and off would be fine. I just dont mind my clan servers being copied and my experiences showing up at the top of the list

But I wouldnt want golf carts and rpg to be locked to a singel 16 player server. or fort lyndon to be locked to a single server in asia

With all due respect to what you’ve created with BF6:
Do you notice that it’s starting to fall back into old patterns again?
Player numbers are dropping week by week – and that worries many of us.

You finally found the way back to Battlefield’s roots.
BF6 has huge potential, and you are holding the key to its long-term success.

We are asking you – as players and as representatives of one of the largest European Battlefield communities – please don’t let this chance slip.

Expand Portal.
Give communities more tools to create, manage, and properly administrate servers.
Strong communities are what kept Battlefield alive for years – and they can do it again.

We don’t ask for more content.
We ask for control, freedom, and trust in the community.

Battlefield has always been more than a game.
Please help us keep it alive. @pine imp @ivory magnet @worthy harness

[dense holly]

Gulf of Lyndon Conquest times you out?

cant join, only time out for idle when you try to join

[gusty wasp]

are platoons in BF6 yet?

[dense holly]

I wish

[compact cliff]

Where can we ask questions about deving in portal?

[mellow chasm]

90% of servers are hardcore at the moment.

[formal current]

Hi
There is no way to start any 64 / 96 players modes by himself now ?
Always stuck on 12/20

[mellow chasm]

Nope, you need 8 players

[half rivet]

Battle royal gun foo knives and pistols only. Zj94m

[cerulean kelp]

⸻

Back then, it was so much better.
You rented your own server and could configure it exactly the way you wanted.

Hardcore settings like player health and weapon damage were fully customizable.
You could set round time and idle time.

Then you used tools like RCON, Procon, or RCONnet and gave admin rights to people you trusted, so fair play was enforced on the server.

You could ban extreme optics like FLIR and set sniper limits per team to prevent camping.
You went to Battlelog and had a proper server browser.

You could even upload custom maps or install modes like Gun Master on those servers.
Team switching was possible as well.

And the crazy thing is: many of these servers are still running today.

So why did we move away from such a good system?

I believe Battlefield became great because of its individuality.
It allowed many different playstyles and communities to exist side by side.

But in Portal, I feel restricted and trapped if I want to have Full XP enabled.

The developers put a lot of time, effort, and passion into the game, and for that I truly appreciate and respect all of them.

That said, having a bit more freedom for Full XP in Portal would be great.
And getting feedback on our feedback would be even better.

[cerulean kelp]

I love the idea of Redacted / Red Sec, but I simply can’t play it.

Either I need 50 players at the same time, which is extremely hard to achieve without a proper server browser,
or I am forced to play it in softcore – which I absolutely dislike.

I also thought the Winter Offensive was a really great idea.
But once again, the settings were standard and not Hardcore.
Those settings prevent me from playing.

Honestly, it felt like a slap in the face when it was released for everyone else, but not in a Hardcore-friendly way.
And I truly believe I’m not the only one who feels this way.

[lofty pivot]

the hardcore servers are the main ones that thrive even with the terrible restrictions. But 1000%, we need admin tools, co admin, moderator designation etc (give us like 5-10 slots for adding people). Would make the portal so much better without even thinking about remastering maps, making new content etc. for a minimal developer investment. So many communities would pay for a dedicated server slot, add on higher tick rate... Like EA, take my money on this one thing and just do it already.

[cerulean kelp]

Yes, these are just a few of the settings that would significantly improve Portal.
This also includes team switching.

If the setting options from Individual Portal were made available in Verified Portal, that would already be a strong first step.

In addition, modes like King of the Hill should be made available as well.

What I don’t understand is why everything suddenly became so restricted.

In Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4, almost everything was possible when it came to server settings and administration.
Then Battlefield V arrived, and suddenly all of that was gone.

Since then, complaints have never really stopped.

With Battlefield 2042, Portal finally moved things back in the right direction.
But now with Battlefield 6, Portal feels like a step backwards again.

I genuinely don’t understand why this keeps happening.

[silk tundra]

It's ea. No matter the question, the answer is always "money"

[cerulean kelp]

As I already said, free and flexible server settings are a matter of willingness, not money.

60 Hz servers, on the other hand, do involve costs.
For that, I would be completely fine with a monthly fee, or even going back to third-party server providers.

[silk tundra]

No, you don't get it. If portal was good, people would be using it. That would cost them money. With current hardware cost increases, I imagine it's going to get increasingly expensive - AI bros bought out all the data centre capacity worldwide.

Promising everyone a guaranteed custom server while aiming for the highest sales for the franchise was like them shooting themselves in the foot. Now they're in damage control mode.

[cerulean kelp]

I never said that Portal was good.
What I said was that Portal in Battlefield 2042 was better than it is now, and even back then it still wasn’t great.

That’s exactly why I don’t understand these decisions.

Yes, server costs are exploding right now, especially when building new infrastructure.
But that mainly applies when setting up new servers — there are still plenty of existing systems and capacities in place.

And if EA had never fully shifted to Portal, but instead stayed with the well-functioning system from earlier Battlefield titles — which also had higher player numbers — they would likely have earned more money in the long run.

[fossil arch]

Ngl it's been trending towards that since the 2010s.

Publishers want more control over what players do in order to monetize it. See how mods have been gradually phased out in most games, and cosmetics microtransactions are being more common? Custom servers is adjacent to that so it makes sense they would also go after it like what COD did.

EA can't give too much control to the players, otherwise they cant make them pay. Hence BFPro pass holders having 100 player personal servers, but standard users dont.

[cerulean kelp]

That’s exactly how I see it as well, and I’ve been saying for a long time that Battlefield is slowly copying the Call of Duty approach.

I actually stopped playing Call of Duty back when the matchmaking system was introduced.

I love Battlefield, and my goal with all this is not to complain, but to achieve something through honest, constructive criticism.
I haven’t lost hope yet.

The game itself is good, and the developers clearly put a lot of passion and effort into it — that deserves respect.

At the same time, there were certain things in the past, like external community servers, that simply worked better.
And because I understand that changing something like this mid-cycle is extremely difficult, I’m saying:
Let’s look at what can realistically be improved within Portal to better support communities, clans, and Hardcore players.

[dense holly]

the trend Def started back in bf3 and 4... I think 3 was the one that took the idle timer control away from the admins, or allowing us to whitelist ourselves.
BF4 introduced "official" servers that quickplay fed into but, those had no anti cheat, no kick, kill or ban cmd, no ping kick... they were basically just paid billboards. you could only run official modes and if your server had a different mode in play it wouldnt work.

[cerulean kelp]

For me, matchmaking has absolutely nothing to do with real team play.
It’s much more suited for individual, ego-focused gameplay.

I prefer playing with my people, with players who are regulars,
both together and against each other, so you can actually measure skill and teamwork over time.
That is far more fun than constantly playing with new random players every round.

A 4-man squad is not a team.
For me, a team means one side versus the other side, with structure, identity, and continuity.

And that requires persistent, fixed servers.

[silk tundra]

I do agree fully, I was just making a point that the current situation is likely borne out of corporate greed and data-driven approach to development. There's a compete disconnect between EA's approach to Portal and everything the players might see as reasonable or desired

They're not accepting any Portal feedback, that much is clear from their recent post where they listed all the feedback they are tracking that lacked so much as a mention of Portal.

[cerulean kelp]

“I find it very disappointing. I’ve already tried everything and I truly hope the developers will help us.”
@midnight crystal @final latch
“I firmly hope that the developers will help us.”

[crisp dragon]

Unlikely friend.
I've just been trying to get them to drop the start count from 20 to 4 with no bots in place and its been unsuccessful so far.
For them to do all the changes needed to have it like the past, the new stuff might not support and would take too long to process. They have 20 game modes they are trying to fill on their own servers.
Unfortunately Portal seams like the "red headed step child they put under the landing in the basement."
At least when it comes to FULL-XP SERVERS ON PORTAL

[cerulean kelp]

“A game lives because of its players. And one thing is certain: the moment you stop fighting, you’ve already lost.”

[cerulean kelp]

What else is there left to do?
I honestly have bigger problems than just Portal.

I’ve been playing Battlefield for 23 years now, and I started playing Hardcore back in Battlefield 3 because the normal mode was simply no fun for me personally.

Then suddenly it was promised that a new Battlefield would come out that would surpass everything before it. Of course I pre-ordered immediately. After BF1, BFV, and BF2042, I really hoped this time it would truly go back to the old Battlefield roots.

When I started playing, it was a lot of fun. I discovered a huge amount of content and thought, finally, this feels right again.
But then I realized that most of this content isn’t actually usable for me.

I hoped I could recreate and play it myself through Portal. But even there, many of these modes simply don’t exist. To put it bluntly: as a Hardcore player, about 80% of the content is not usable for me.
Even the Winter Offensive wasn’t playable in Hardcore, although I was really looking forward to it.

So what choice do I have left?
All I can do is hope that someone at EA or among the developers notices this and that something finally changes.

After 23 years, am I just supposed to give up and play other games?
No. First, I will try. And I will keep hoping that this feedback actually reaches the people at the top.

[lyric aurora]

How can we not favorite servers!!! That’s crazy!!! The hosts can’t keep the server up 24/7… the shit the bed again… it’s a good game. I only got it for portal tho… haven’t played much of the game since it doesn’t work good… hopefully the devs see this and understand what we need fixed…

[warm storm]

https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/restore-community-servers-hardcore-portal

We started a petition so that we would finally be heard about adapting the portal system.

It would be helpful if many people supported us.

[silk tundra]

I'm not giving my name and email

[warm storm]

I understand that this is the only way to compromise the authenticity of the petition.

[marble girder]

At the moment, and for almost two weeks now, experience settings are not applied when host locally, and custom bots do not spawn when host online. Are the devs going to fix this, or is this some kind of masochistic plan?

[dry lava]

Anybody interested by a Hardcore Breakthrough 100XP? Server code : ZD8BD (on the portal it shows 0 people in the server I don't know why)

[acoustic dagger]

I am creating a vehicle server for my clan, is there a way to edit vehicle loadouts in a custom portal map ?

And is there a better area to find portal information?

[mild sentinel]

They mess it up and I don’t know how long it will be like this

[marble girder]

it was fine before last major update. and all this makes me think that they ruined Portal on purpose

[dry lava]

It's difficult not to think that, totally agreeing there

[mild sentinel]

They fuck up really bad. Why do we need 8 players to start a matchup? You only need one player to start the matchup, especially when they’re playing by themselves. Only 6 bots filling up on both teams that is idiotic… it should be up to 64 bots

[marble girder]

logic left bf team. maybe they panicked because players started farming XP instead of buying it with real money

[dry lava]

To me, the biggest issue is that they are not transparrent on "why" they make such decisions, some of them just do not make sense at all.

[dense holly]

you havet o relaunch, this will not fix itself

Atleast now that XP farms are gone, you can relaunch easily, It used to take me 1.5 hours occasionally to launch my clan servers every day... sipping coffee spamming the host button

and then it would launch in who know where

[dry lava]

Yeah I still remember that, we were on the edge to drop the game completely, and we managed enough patience in the end xD. Thanks for the tips gonna try it

[dense holly]

honestly, Im about fed up

I have 3 accounts plus friends that help.

we start HC servers every single day using.

The player count is dying off of this game and theres nothing new.

The HC community has 2 -4 servers up when I checked in the last hour. 1 is mine, 1 is New world and the other is a 24/7 eastwood. I dunno what the other was.

I sit, in servers, empty for hours and hours every single day. I wak up at 6 and throw my accounts into a server. I know its worked because I have had tons and tons of people say thank you, and join my discord and it has let to epic nights of 8+ people playing in the same server and haveing a blast killing eachother while there a war going on around us.

but its dying and fast. it isnt dying bc the HC community hasnt had people that try. It isnt dying bc of the server admins... Its dying bc dice is letting it die

[crisp dragon]

I can belive them not wanting players to run in Portal.
It takes away from the 20 other gamemodes they have offered to us.
Why would they want players to run in private owned servers why theirs are emptying by the days that go by.
All of this is pure sarcasm and I'm so mad still because the player count is 20 to start a server and thats just DUMB!

[shell hornet]

0.0.

[marble girder]

XP should have never been allowed in online games. nowadays ppl stopped playing because its fun. ppl play to get XP

[vague bay]

yeah playing objective is playing the bullsh*t challenges all day nowadays, not much are playing the objective of the gamemode

[fossil arch]

Nah. If they wanted to eliminate farms, remove xp gains from bots in portal, but otherwise leave them as is.

Removing bots is just literally removing game features, which some people paid BF6 for btw.

That way people can still create experiences and solo matches with bots, and play what they want, but not make any xp from it.

[marble girder]

at least they allowed us to play with bots locally and i actually have more fun than playing with people for xp https://youtu.be/VICX1bkXYa8?si=IgyGNjE_cQE9LgoM

[fossil arch]

Thats true, but I just wish we could get actual gamemodes there like Conquest or Breakthrough. It usually just spawns me in the middle of the map and the bots fight each other.

Not even sure if the bots still fill up to 64 players anymore.

[crisp dragon]

They dont unless its a custom mode

[tall silo]

If I had known they were going to remove the PVE, I wouldn't have bought this game; what a waste of money.

[fossil arch]

Same, I'm half regretting it because PVP is still fun, but I bought it partly because I want PVE.

[eager atlas]

anyone know of any experience with bot fill that actually works and allows the game to start

[eager atlas]

whats the experience code for this?

[marble girder]

Code: ZJA7R

https://discord.com/channels/870246147455877181/1451196032829362280

hell yeah thank you

[formal current]

I just tried it, there is no bot at all
You’re all by yourself
Normal ?
Thanks

@marble girder

[marble girder]

after last major portal update custom bots only spawn when you start experience locally

[formal current]

Thanks bro

[marble girder]

tell me if it works

[formal current]

How much xp does it gives in the end ?

It works thanks !

And what’s the kill gap ?
Thanks :))

[marble girder]

I don't think it gives any xp locally. but i think it's fun to play 😆

[formal current]

Okok !

[marble girder]

50 kills by team to win

[marble girder]

would be glad to see how you handle my custom super smart (no) bots )

[formal current]

Ill do that in abt an hour 🫡

Dice really killed portal btw …

[marble girder]

btw does it mean "portal custom" experiences do not require 20 players to join to start match? does this limit apply to "verified modes" only?

[formal current]

Some are working but all conquest / breakthrough / rush modes are not working anymore by yourself
I’ve tried a lot and it always end up with that 12 players count…

[marble girder]

oh it's 12. so if I for example recreate conquest/ breakthrough in custom mode it will work without any limit on the number of players

[formal current]

Maybe
Can’t tell atm

[formal current]

@marble girder did try it
Bots are mad LOL
That’s fun to play

I got 360 quickscoped by one with his sniper 😂😭

[tall silo]

I quit PvP because of the latency scam. I've bought every Battlefield game since BF3, and when I saw that BF2042 had lobbies to play with bots, I was really excited because I thought they'd do the same in this BF. What a disappointment! I'll never buy another Battlefield game. I feel robbed and cheated.

[marble girder]

sometimes they feel like sw stormtroopers and sometimes like cyber athletes

How did they not fix this issue yet it’s been almost TWO MONTHS

[spiral stream]

It’s so bad ong

Speak of which it’s sad seeing genuinely barely anyone in Portal and truly miserable to see that I cannot queue Gulf of Lyndon with my squad etc like it’s so disappointing

[trail forge]

Horrid pic

[crisp dragon]

Make non bot filled lobbies 4 to start instead of 20!
I ain't got 19 friends😂

[fading berry]

portal is so bugged how do i use it?
im trying to find a jet practice map but when i try to host i get 'an undefined error occurred'
i found one thats being hosted on like 8 servers but 0 players, when i load in i cant deploy anywhere

also can you not play solo v bots? it seems like its minimum 8 players and rest bots?
everytime i get "populating with bots" it gets stuck at 12 bots + me

[light root]

Bot kills dont count the only good thing they did but with that they killed pve and that stupid

[fading berry]

yeah so portal is useless

i finally find jet practice map but because it needs minimum 8 players, it cant be solo with bots
so you have some absolute losers spawn camping the jets

[light root]

Yeah its dead they kept the useless 15min afk for the unemployed ppl but no loger can have fun with couple friends in legit pve server

[plush musk]

Is the gulf of lyndon portal server still alive? It just keeps loading and i cant find any servers

[pine zodiac]

Is it me or they are just making nato skins ? There is very few pax skins in the shop

[glass gyro]

Hey guys, sorry if this has been discussed before, but is it possible to host a a solo/coop server with bots on Portal?

[stark gyro]

is there someone who can tell me if i can make my own private king of the hill server with portal? i can't find it in the creation thing in portal

[crisp dragon]

You cant play solo vs bots in a Normal Portal Mode but in Custom it maybe possible but youll have to find a custom made mode that only counts towards map completion bonus at 150%
Personally if a server dosent have bots it should be 4 players to start a match in Normal Game Mode Portal Servers. Ive been complaining and hoping for a solution since the update and no luck so far...

[glossy canopy]

Hello, do you still earn weapon xp against bots in portal or did they patch that. If they did what would be the fastest way to level weapons?

[elfin ether]

Using them over and over until that number gets higher

[lyric aurora]

actually playing the game? lol

[fading berry]

anybody have a way to make a consistent gauntlet/firign range type test map
so like i can clear a few areas of bots trying out each guns to see the fastest time etc

cause now portal doesnt let you fill with bots it seems, gets stuck at 12 bots + me meaning i need atleast 1 full squad of players on each team + bots to run a game

[fading berry]

wait so you can do solo v bots? ( dont care about xp) how?
all the existing servers i find get stuck at 12 bots and require 8 players

[heady prairie]

Hello guys , please help fill the server , it's a rush HC setup with good amount of time and tickests . game code ZJNKV . have fun !

[heady prairie]

nice game you made . people enter and just quit after 1 sec . because you fucked up portal with that limited bot backfill

people who play normally and don't cheat doesn't even have hope for a good game in those AAA fps

[crisp dragon]

I would try different discord. Happy Camper is working on a BF1 map and his crew might be able to point you in the right direction for it. I dont solo vs bots so im not sure how it all works but I feel like there's a way.

[fading berry]

i figured it out i think
i just made my own portal map and set team 1 to have 1 player + 15 bots
and team 2 to hav 16 bots

its under review tho, lets see if they approve it

[mellow chasm]

Yes but you have to find server with full xp.

[heady prairie]

where can I submit a ticket for this issue , it's sunday and i'm unable to run a game on portal . I know there is a big community prefering hardcore game modes but the game doesn't allow us to play all in hardcore , and it's impossible to run a serwer from 1 player , obviously everybody skips it

serwers got filled quickly when there was a bot fill so you could join and immediately play . Now you join the serwer you like for a setup but you are unable to play .

there are no good setups anymore, and people leaved testing just because you are unable to close just farms

[plush basin]

For the devs out there for the love of God please put back PVE servers against bots, Yes you can fix all of the glitches if you want but you don't have to make a mandatory player portal. Maybe I just want to play a game by myself and not have to deal with sweaty lobbies, but look at it this way if I know I'm playing against bots I know they're not cheating, Right?

is there a way to save experiences or servers?

Can't add more maps due to file size restrictions, but this will do for now.

[dry vector]

it's a positive, now devs can spend their time actually fixing portal

I'm jk... they still wont fix portal

we already knew they were using it from the challenges anyway when the game first released since 50% of them if not more didn't work

get 300 kills in a single game from the hip

when it would actually be get 50 rpg kills in a single game while prone

[torn raptor]

very very ften, my server will just dump half the players

[silk tundra]

Oh damn.

[mellow chasm]

Servers crash if they are more than 24 hours full online. Will kick everyone.

Sometimes even within 12 hours. In 2042 it was every 2nd or 3rd day in Portal.

[lyric aurora]

That’s the reason this game is wack… all they had to do was bring back server browser!!!!

[mellow chasm]

No big deal. People just rejoin.

[light root]

It is there is no communities you cant make one you cant fav a server at anytime a server can disappear its the bare minimum and they cant deliver, small indie company what we expect

[mellow chasm]

Can't deny that Follow option they need to bring back.

[lyric aurora]

If they just remade bf4 exactly the way it was modernize graphics! Greatest game ever made. But instead we just keep getting wack shooters…

[mellow chasm]

No point playing same game twice. Besides, 6 is new game and a lot of updates yet to come.

[lyric aurora]

Pay to play…. Yet another reason why the game is wack…

[meager owl]

Are they actually adding ai crap to the game now?

Wack

[mellow chasm]

Well, you don't like it and it's fine. You play something else.

[lyric aurora]

Good, I’m glad you understand how it works.

[mellow chasm]

Yeah, only why are you here then?

[lyric aurora]

Hoping they fix it!

[mellow chasm]

I think they have enough help. Anyway, won't be replying to this anymore. This channel is about Portal.

[lyric aurora]

Right that’s why I’m trying to find out info about portal… lol
Portal should be replaced with server browser!!!

[dry vector]

or maybe they should fix it

beating a dead horse here but just a few simple things like favorite/bookmarking servers, quit showing servers with literally zero people in them, let people actually start servers by removing the player req, let us play with bots that gives full everything

none of these are hard and half of them were already in the game when it launched

[short dune]

Populating with bots stuck. How to fix this?

[compact cliff]

Anyone else found the idle code for bots doesnt work?

I wanted to create a better shooting range but having the bots shoot back doesnt help

[crisp dragon]

Yes you are. I've tried all over and were saying forget it.
Im even to the point that I dont care about the XP, just want a place to shoot at my buddy's and run custom RUSH modes.
RUSH in the Core Game just isnt it.

[dense holly]

are bans broken?

Im trying to ban for tking on purpose with 2 players and I cant kick or ban them?

[west vale]

just put player health to max and damage from ai to zero. literal selections in portal

[crisp sky]

LF a player to do the Rise from your Grave Achievement

[compact cliff]

its not about me staying alive, is my portal code not working was more the issue, in this case they still shoot back which isnt what im looking for

[flint plume]

Merry Christmas fellow Portal/BF players.

[west vale]

Merry Christmas

[silk tundra]

Eastwood is great with 40 players or less

[mighty elm]

I wonder why the portal has no EXP？？？

I don't think this is a good change.

Obviously, in 2042, every player can play only AI mode.Why was it deleted in bf6?

[real torrent]

because people would rather abuse the game and fill the browser with xp farms instead of its actual purpose portal has

[mellow chasm]

It has

[light root]

Randy i think they should add pve mode coop/solo like in 2042 and remove bots form portal that should fix the problem and make servers start with 2-4 players at most

[analog robin]

you guys really wanna play pve in multiplayer pvp centered game?

[grand socket]

I don't really want to deal with tryhards who sneak themselves into the most ridiculous spots and pick you off instantly, or blitz around in an IFV or a helicopter, when I get off work and just want to casually play and kill an hour or 2. And I want a chance to use the helicopter or jets myself without said tryhard hogging it every game.

Either there needs to be some sort of cooldown like 2042 or just give us pve conquest.

[crisp sky]

LF someone to do the Battle Royale Revive achievement dm if intrested

[ashen orchid]

guys is there anyone familiar with portal to explain a little thing to me ?

I am trying to (host locally) to play with local ping because my internet is damn bad atm
i want to play with bots
but when i (host locally) the bots never show up nor spawn at all
but when i host (normal online host) they appear
any help ?

[dry vector]

because the last game had, battlefields of the past have had it, and THIS game had it but took it away

[shut skiff]

i mean it was literally advertised on portal and it was in 2042, and bots were in older bf games

i really dont see anything wrong with people wanting to play pve

even then, why would you want to push players away from your game, regardless of the reason they play

[west vale]

Just look at all the empty PVP servers. Or servers requiring 12 plus players and sit empty. You ask a selfish question.

[west vale]

All those servers are still there but empty. So what was fixed? Just lost a bunch of players. The challenges are PVP only which misses a huge part of the player base. They need to allow moderate challenge, progression, and weapon mastery with bots. They truly would see player numbers come back up and what detriment is there for XP lobbies? Change my mind. What is the point of this game? Was it launch sales or longevity? Right now it seems that the launch was the only success they focused on. They need to cater to the Portal community now for longevity. PVP have their servers. The loyal PVP just do not want other players to have fun? The Empty XP farm servers are still active, just empty, so that solution does not hold water. I still think reducing the XP, challenges, mastery, to moderate is the best with unmodified bot backfill servers with one player start.

[worn vessel]

I have a server up called IGY6 Conquest. It's Conquest 24/7 and will stay up for continuous fun!

[worn vessel]

Just need a few more people to join to start

[dry vector]

this is the problem

need bot backfill on so servers stay populated and people can hop in and out when they want

[plush nest]

man they really knew how to kill their game fr

theres like one hardcore breakthrough server now since they ruined the bot backfill man who cares if it gives xp if you kill bots like you said just lower the Xp amount bots at least give a server a chance to fill up while your actively playing, who wants to sit in an empty server nobody

Most of the challenges are stupid anyways and would require you to play an insane amount of time anyways to unlock stuff you want progression was never this grindy in a battlefield game seems like all they focused on was the battlepass and the battleroyal both of which any true BF player could care less about

[mellow chasm]

Now, probably you don't know how to use filters. Last time I checked, there were BT servers with 48 and 64 players. Now there's 64 player rush server by TBG clan. And many FULL Conquest servers.

What I think you really want is xp farm.

Hopefully, EA won't hear you and it will stay as it is or bots will give 0 xp.

So you can't make 1 person private server in Portal to farm xp with bots.

[waxen fractal]

portal is such a joke, 3 rounds in a row our squad got top squad on the losing team, everyone on our team might as well be bots. There's no auto-balancer like we had in the days when we could properly run servers. Either give us the facilities to make this shit ourselves like we used to, or put an auto-balancer into portal.

[dry vector]

who the F cares if you could do it locally, it affects nothing

[silk tundra]

EA = numbers

[dry vector]

but you can't play verified modes locally for some stupid reason

[silk tundra]

They hate when you get XP faster than they designed the game for

[dry vector]

but there was this game that you could

starts with battle something, ends with a 42 I think

then put a level cap, there's already an exp cap for the day

I feel like there's no way they don't know all of this

[silk tundra]

I think people that are in charge of making decisions don't know anything

And there aren't communication channels in place for the people that know everything to convey their knowledge to the people that are making decisions

I don't get how any of this is surprising to anyone who's ever had a job

[scarlet shale]

Crazy take. Haven’t looked at my weekly’s once and almost all are done.

[shut skiff]

I really don’t know what was wrong with the way BF2042 did PvE, yet they couldn’t bother to carry that over to BF6 Portal, then completely just yeeted PvE out of existence with this Winter patch

I’m aware that bot XP farms exist, but instead of really fixing the problem, they just tossed the entire point of Portal away instead.

[mild sentinel]

They fuck it up. They should not be afraid of XP bot farming from the players, just leave it alone, and if there’s a problem just fix it if there’s any bugs and glitch

[covert willow]

This portal is dead, with that server browser ... lol - almost 20 normal servers for thounsands of pps and the rest - xp farm.
Brilliant job with servers. Better way shoud be with HLL way.

[shut skiff]

i think it's tiring that people (including SOME people in this server) 1) tell pve players to play a different game, 2) why they want a pve mode in a pvp game, or 3) they blame those people for buying bf6 for pve

1. people want to play battlefield 6, not any other game, 2) because it was literally advertised in portal and in addition, bots literally existed in bf2042 & in older games and i know pve players really enjoy that aspect, 3) yeah cuz its their fault for buying bf6 when it was advertisted as such when the fault lies on ea/dice for basically scamming people

and plus, isn't it good to have more people play your game, regardless of said reason? why would you actively go out of your way to not have more players play the game? and besides bots do have a practical use for players cuz not everyone enjoys playing against other players or hell, it can be used as practice. i really don't know what's with this community's hatred among people who just want to play with bots, like if you're gonna be blaming people for playing with bots, blame the people making bot xp farms and abusing that system.

also, the argument of "you play with bots haha" doesn't hold water cuz it's literally not a freaking competition, people just want to play the game how they want to, which gee uh... isn't that what PORTAL was advertised as such? i'm just spilling my thoughts on this regard haha

[covert willow]

Playing BF6 with bots is not OK, but playing with bots in CS, Quake, Unreal Tournament, ARMA 3 or Insurgency: Sandstorm is OK! xD

Those games bots are:

• a training or offline addition,
• an integral part of the game for years,
• not damaging matchmaking or online progression,
• not massively abused for XP exploits.

The difference is simple:
in those games bots complement gameplay, while in BF6 they ruin it, because Portal was poorly designed and poorly secured.
The problem isn’t PvE players themselves - the problem is that in BF6 bots were added to the online system without proper control or consequences.

And to do anything with Portal, first they should fix the server browser, add the ability to add servers to favorites, and make the browser LOOK NORMAL. Right now, to find a server, I have to enter a tag or game code and search for servers available under that code. Everything is damn unreadable, and, all things considered, this is one of the simplest and most basic things to implement. It would be enough to just copy the functionality and appearance from existing ones that already work well!

[shut skiff]

well unfortunately i feel like bot xp farms are going to be a thing, no matter how you put it, but yeah the whole ui for bf6 portal is just inexcusable

personally my solution to bots in bf6 is to have a pve mode that's separate from multiplayer and have progression so pve players don't gotta deal with ppl or just unlock everything for portal

[plush nest]

dude who cares about Xp you think I care about xp? I just want the opportunity to make my own hardcore breakthrough server but that shi is never gonna happen now

[amber venture]

I am looking for teammates that communicate and will help me out

[west vale]

That is a big problem for most. Who wants to wait for players that may not show up. I don't have time for that. Besides, Bots are consistent and do not cheat. For casual players that is a big plus.

[west vale]

Your are a narcistic player. Hopefully, you are a minority of the player base with a loud keyboard. Hopefully, EA will ignore your rant against bots. Devs are playing to your tune now and players are quitting in droves. Yes, applying the correct filter does yield the full servers if that is your game. I just do not see the motive your complaint. Why do XP lobbies bother you? If I play an XP lobby to unlock the gear that should have been unlocked in the first place, does it harm you? I do not plan to enter your server with Overpowered gear. Bots don't care how I kill them. I do not want to play with you or your friends. You sound like a real sweaty player.

[lean parcel]

Nobody would care about bot farming if they prevented bot farmers from bringing the gear into MP. You can want to play bots all you want. It’s an unfair advantage to be able to earn and exploit your way to unlocking everything quickly for the sake of I don’t have time to grind etc and then be able to bring the maxed out guns and best gear into multiplayer with an advantage over players who are unlocking things legitimately.

[gritty forge]

I cant seem to create a portal game mode?

[pale dragon]

When are they going to fix the spawning issues in portal? Spawn points aren't showing up once 2 players joined the match

[west vale]

Well, I see your point and it is the few who ruin it for the many. I myself only play PVE. I am not normal I guess. I have fun playing against bots. I do not take it as personally and I sweat much less. My blood pressure goes up on PVP, so I avoid it altogether. What bothers me is I bought BF3,BF4,BF1,5 and there is absolutely zero Multiplayer progression in my account. There is no bot modes or bots added later. I have games that were never enjoyed like those who love the PVP. Why not make the game enjoyable for both types of players. Keep the Portal progression separate. All those battlefields I never got to enjoy the unlocks because I was unwilling, though I tried a few times in PVP, I never enjoyed the stress. I play to chill and PVP does the opposite to me.

[lean parcel]

I get it. And they did advertise it before launch as being an option. And the exploits ruined it for all unfortunately. In reality even with full attachments unlocked there is no gun with any attachments that is so op that it’s basically cheating against guns without all the attachments in the hands of any decent player

[west vale]

If you are not a coder, scripter, or programmer then good luck.

[west vale]

The only problem in the beginning was the lack of server capacity. They blamed it on the XP server lobbies which are still there but just empty. I don't buy the reason for the XP nerf. Many, many empty servers in the server browser still.

[lean parcel]

I think it’s more to buy them time to figure out how to prevent the xp servers from being remade over and over. They can delete them but when they just get remade it’s a loop

[daring sinew]

retun to Battlelog with server. impossible manage server portal

Hello, here I can post questions about the Portal SDK (Godot) ?

[tender nest]

Thanks!

[gritty forge]

Okay, thanks i guess

[rich junco]

I created a custom conquest map in Godot. It features three capture points, all with different ObjIDs etc. However, on the map and in the game itself, every capture point is displayed as 'A' instead of 'A', 'B', and 'C'. I would like to fix this—any tips on how to solve it?

[west vale]

I'm in the same boat with you. Sad

[gritty forge]

ahhh okay
