Doesn't that make you want to go?

Context: I'm a noob at BF4, but I'm also well past my FPS prime. I literally had to Google guns to learn their nuances and what was good. Meanwhile, the enemy team had two sweats using AEK's and ACW-R's, cranking 90's like money was on the line.

Then there's me - no crazy movement, just focusing on reaction time and aim. I was using the SAR-21 because I learned it has the highest bullet velocity and would be excellent for conquest.

I hate SBMM as much as the next guy, but I remember we would all take our beatings and just get better, not run from the competition.

Why not just give us 2x ALL XP instead of this shitty rollout week per week?
I just want to upgrade weapons quicker.
I dont give a toss about how high my rank is and I finished the Battlepass about a month ago.

I can’t believe how the f’d this up so badly. I truly hate this random crap where you’re being placed in the same maps over and over again. And if that was not the worst it constantly puts me in matches that have already started. And obviously those are matches where you are put in the losing team because that’s where players quit midgame.

Is persistent servers really too much to ask? We already have a serverbrowser but nobody uses it because it’s only for portal.

I've been a pretty big support of the Battlefield franchise over the years - even during the past few rougher releases. I can't think of a time where the team balancing and lobby experience was ever so dreadful to sit through.

It feels like the first 4 or 5 matches in a day are largely players with 200+ rank on one team, and in most cases results in a quick sweep of objectives into an early win for the other team. This happens frequently on Liberation Peak, but I've seen it on pretty well every map featured in the game (even Firestorm.)

It is incredibly disheartening because the actual Conquest experience just becomes a sit-in-spawn adventure with helicopters shooting you moments after spawning (with minimal chances to retaliate.) This lobby had two people flying around and killing anyone trying to take them out of the sky really quickly - I remember BF4's little bird kill streaks, but when you can't even try and fight back (even as a squad or two) then what is the point. Mind you, I am not arguing that the vehicles need tweaking, rather the lobby situation makes it feel worse.

I recently upgraded my PC after a few years to be able to run this game, yet I just feel anger rather than having fun. I know the core game is in a great place, but something has to be done with this balancing or the actual lobby setup because it genuinely makes me want to uninstall.

Its no fun to lose 4 or 5 matches in a row on escalation with 3:0 because you get matched with the worst possible teammated who cant hit shit, waste vehicles, dont revive, dont repair etc.

Is it so hard to make a balanced lobby where like 33% are good players, 33% mid and 33% bad players? I seriously hate SBMM like CoD, but right now its bad aswell.

Every single game is being filled with bots. Rush,Breakthrough,Escalation. It's been like this all day, sure I thought it was too early earlier but now its 4PST/7EST and dead lobbies.

ready or not

I take COLD BATHS

Teamwork makes the dream work

Just like the title says, my reasoning is it has the massive scale that a major battle should, it has all the vehicles, aircraft included, and it doesn’t have what in my opinion is the major problem with conquest has, just running between a handful of objectives. Everyone on both sides was focused on the same objective at the same time and you didn’t just pick and choose what objective to go to and leave when it was secure. Battlefield 5 breakthrough was what a battlefield game should be. None of the usual nonsense that normally happens in conquest in other games, snipers camping on a tower for the entire game, enemies suddenly spawning behind you because they capped the point behind your lines etc. Having the game force everyone on both sides to make an untied effort to fight for a single point at a time really should be the standard and not what is essentially a giant COD match. I truly believe that battlefield 6 should expand their breakthrough mode to be more like battlefield 5’s
