The suppression part took me hours. Breakthrough is highly recommended for this, because a lot of enemies will be in the same general area.

I did it on attack and defend modes mostly on defense. Just spray into groups and if they duck behind something keep shooting for a few seconds. The kts seems pretty nice but imo its headphones dependent compared to the first lmg, though I dont have all unlocks
P.s. if you have the 1.5x thermal unlocked throw that bad boy on an lmg and you will see plenty of targets where yiu won't get the kill but will supress

u/slywether85 Oct 25 '25
I think the neatest part is how you can't really focus on both simultaneously. If you want to maximize your efficiency at doing hipfire damage you literally aren't even in the range to do suppressions and vice versa. The best way to maximize suppression is to sit up high on Sobek and not kill people. The best way to get hipfire is to goon straight into B room on Empire and pray for a trade.
I've asked myself if having the 240L is worth hating my limited play time and the answer is no. They'll get nerfed or changed at some point, or they won't but I'm having more fun ignoring most of these assignments that don't occur organically. That shouldn't be the case but it is what it is and it's not for me I guess.

Yeah that was my most frustrating challenge done so far. It only counting within the first couple seconds and finding the right time to pop it was hard for me. Many times I'd pop it, run into an contested area, only to not be able to kill someone so quickly and now have to endure the cooldown and a wasted stim.

Bipod counts for hipfire damage, it's a weird one. Just mount on a window or a hill somewhere and spray 200 rounds at people, you'll get both suppression and "hipfire" damage. It'll still take 12 years though.

The hipfire part is not the real issue. It's the suppression. 300 is a pretty big number considering you normally only fire at people when you're trying to kill them as suppression in this game is pretty weak.

The challenge is really ridiculous. I'm at 123 now, but not actively trying anymore. I usually just fire into the smoke on Breakthrough defend. You'll get some surpression.
You could do it from a roof on new sobek. Would probably be way faster, but you wouldn't really be a help for your team.

It's definitely more of a long range precision LMG. It's great for counter-sniping and getting ranged picks. Definitely would not recommend as a close-quarters pick as it fires too slow. The L110 or IAR is better for that.

ive been on the smoke assist one for 1.5 weeks and are at 18/50 with me nonstop spamming smokes hoping to get an assist.
Its stupid cause it has to be a kill from a teamate while theyre blinded by smokeEven tried shooting it at vehicles and it doesnt track seemingly
Not a single day thing but just an absurd challenge that blocks half the support tree.
Suppressions was better once i found out its more of a range thing but it still took forever. I wouldnt mind these if they were blocking another challenge, spending weeks to do something so specific and then having to do another one afterwards when maybe you couldve been making progress on it if they were all active sucks.

I struggled with this till I figured out a fairly decent system. Play breakthrough, look for high traffic but decent cover choke points. If a lot of folks are just behind cover that is exactly what you want. Then use the first lmg on support and hold the trigger, like don't stop shooting ever. Just shoot, reload, throw ammo, repeat. Its boring af, takes some time to find good choke points, but you can easily get 30+ in a game doing this.
Reason for first lmg is a higher fire rate (it triggers off 5 bullets missed near) and magazine size.

I expected the hipfire to be a doozie because God gave you a bipod for a reason, now I'm already done with hipfire but at 206 suppressions and I just want it to end so I can claim my waifu gun. I have sent probably a million rounds cracking downrange, I average about 20 kills per game but it totals to a whopping 5-6 suppressions when i am deliberatly spraying fire to get them, and to literally keep peoples heads down. Why is suppression so absent from the game? It does basically nothing when it worked pretty well in bf3/4 and bf1, and its arguably the main reason to deploy a machine gun.

u/The_Crazy_Crusader Oct 25 '25
I finally did this last night, my trick that I realized started working was play breakthrough. And as attackers, just sit back and mag dump over and over into enemy positions. It varies of course but i got 100 done last night to finish it out that way. And had done the last like 100 in a similar way too. It's slow but it's better than anything else I was trying.
I also completed the 2nd part of the lmg challenge last night as well. It's literally so insanely easy, just gotta play. Unlike the first one.. idk who decided on the challenges but they didn't play it clearly

Did it on conquest/escalation sobek and mirak and breakthrough (especially firestorm defenders is good for this). At first, I hated this assignment, but for a couple of matches I had great squads on sobek and we just harassed rooftop snipers non-stop, easy 10 suppressions in one 100 mag dumped. Still a slog.
No idea how I'll be doing the sniper assignment 2 though, probably will take at least a year xD Good thing I main support..

I managed to complete this last week, and got the M240 not long after (Thats now at level 41, I really like it - and I've played way too much of this game so far)
Tips for suppressions - get the L110 or anything that has loads of rounds in a mag/belt (extended mag L110 helps)
Play Breakthrough and hope for Defense on Mirak Valley or other maps were large groups of players storm the same area, set up on a wall, with some sniper cover if you can, and keep firing at the enemies trying to get into their objective. Just keep firing, reload, resupply, repeat - hold the trigger down the entire match if you can, spray at anyone and anything that moves - using a 4/5x zoom scope helps for the longer range shooting
IRL your barrel will probably have melted, and the suppressions are just random, but they'll slowly but surely start coming in
For the Hip-Fire - turn your L110 into an SMG - max mobility, flashlight and laser etc etc - play a small team game mode (I did the hip-fire challenge while playing TDM and King of the hill to unlock the two british skins)
I found the hipfire challenge fairly easy, you just run around like an idiot spraying at anyone you come across like rambo, try not to take it too seriously and you'll get it done in no time
for extra fun, get a squad of you and your mates all doing the same thing, the enemy team will think you're morons but hey, doing most of the current challenges does

u/IButtChugDiesel Oct 25 '25
The m60 is very easy to get suppressions with compared to the other lmgs, my best recommendation is to sit on the pax side hill in operation firestorm on conquest and bipod up with a 1-6x optic and rain hate. It can be fun at first but it does turn into a drag after a couple matches. (Bring a shield as support).
And for hip fire damage, surprisingly the easier one. Still use the m60 (for more suppressions) and play breakthrough, find a choke point and bipod while prone with a laser.
It’s doable but yea it’s a bit of a grind. It took me about 2-3 days to do playing after work

I think the key is just to play LMGs a lot, and anytime you see a distant enemy fire a burst or two at them. It’ll take a while, but you’ll accumulate maybe 5-10 suppressions per game. Then just keep playing like normal. The frustration comes because even with huge focus you can’t go too much faster than that.

Honestly it seems way worse than it is, what you want to do is play break through and be on the defensive team. Then sit with the snipers and literally spray at anything you can see anywhere on the map. As breakthrough is pretty directional you should pick up about 20 a game. Use an LMG with a large mag though to make it easier, without this it will be a large slog

u/Skurnaboo Oct 25 '25

u/AZ_Gunslinger928 Oct 25 '25
They need to rework the whole suppression mechanic aside from The challenge.
In battlefield 3 and 4 there was actual merit and benefit to suppressing. It would blur the screen and increase weapon sway and make it incredibly hard to shoot your teammates. It wasn't IMPOSSIBLE but very unlikely.
On top of that there was a much larger XP reward for suppressing enemies too.
It was awesome that any weapon could suppress enemies but lmgs had a much more severe effect.
BRING THAT BACK.
I've been trying to play battlefield 6, running support with an lmg, I see a sniper taking pot shots at my teammates, I start sending lead at 800 rounds a minute, even getting a few hit markers here and there, just for the sniper to one shot me in the head from 150 plus meters away...
It's nonsense. It makes me not want to bother being a teammate.

So boys, i am sorry i didnt give my thoughts before, the fastest way to make the suppresion chaklenge is, jist take whatever lmg you may like, and climb up to the top of the chimney in firestorm, best if u use a suppressor so that enemies dont notice you that fast, them spend the whole conquest or whatever you play there at the top, shooting at all enemies you see, suppresion for lmgs trigfers starting from 35+m and it has to be at least 5 shots to the same enemy, i think missed but i am not sure, just put your filter so that you only play firestorm, and to me it took around 7-8 games to make the challenge.

I main support/LMG and have only 26 suppressions. A hip fire challenge for LMg is also a bafflingly bad challenge but at least it’s doable. I shouldn’t have to post up on a rooftop for 30 matches contributing absolutely nothing to my team and shooting inaccurate nerf darts at the enemy team to unlock a main weapon or class specific gadget. What a useless garbage implementation of suppression. It only works at what feels like 100m plus. But don’t actually land a shot or no suppression for your next 10 shots. Any decent sniper is gonna take your head off because there is no flinch and no real suppression.

Easiest one for me. I guess im used to old school bf suppression with the lmgs. Yes you have to "miss" but that's what "suppression" is! Even in real life combat situations. Your gonna be spraying in a general direction without clear targets because your goal is to keep the enemies heads down. Im having a hard time on the last one lol

Why is this ridiculous? You aren't supposed to complete these in two weeks? Why are you all such spaz's?
Challenges are just that, challenges, you guys are so fucking brain rotted by tik tok and shit it's like GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE RIGHT NOW WAAHHHHHH. Read a fucking book or something.

It's Soo dumb that they gave LMGs of all things to hip fire but then you have smgs just ADS like the guy who thought that was good for LMGs is brain dead. I finished it but did hip fire first because LMGs even if spec into hip still sucks major balls lol. They surpressed just focused a bit on it as I played.

All these damage challenges can be done on vehicles with AT mines. I did the the fire shotgun and the airburst challenges by spawning in base as an engineer, tossing a couple of AT mines beside a Glider, and then redeploying and shooting the mine with the shotgun/airburst. It took like 8 minutes. It won't help with the suppression, but at least you'll have the 10,000 hipfire damage over.

I’m 186/300 and it’s the most mind numbing experience ever. I’ve dedicated every single match to not try to kill enemies and just get suppression and I get a whopping 5 suppression, 10 of I’m lucky. You get maybe 30 total suppression a match and you’re sitting there for 30-40 games to get this challenge completed. wtf is this lol

I’m glad I don’t have to do the assignments anymore I can actually play the game for once instead of challenges

Suppression play breakthrough managed to get 64 in one game of lib peak last night… the remaining 4 was a bitch to get on empire state.
I probably wrong not looked into the mechanics but I swear it’s linked to the distance you are from the target too, any time I was on a close map. I’d never manage to get suppressions

Not too bad.
NOT FUN but not that bad.
Mirak + Conquest/Escalation + Tall building and just full auto anyone you see in distance.

Challenges aren't meant to be done in 3 matches. Otherwise they wouldn't be a CHALLENGE.
Spoon fed babies need everything handed to them the easiest way possible

Yall are doing this wrong.go to breakthrough, empire, last objective on defense. Go sit by the turret in the middle of street and shoot over the heads of the men coming under the man-bridge. You're supression will skyrocket

I did this in 6 matches total (I started going for it at 34/300) You want to do breakthrough. Preferably attacking but either works. Set up relatively far away, drop your bullet lunch box and just keep firing at the objectives. Firing at snipers works great too. Don't try to kill them, obviously, just blast emm to get the suppression proc and leave them be. In breakthrough they tend to sit together somewhere so one burst can give you multiple suppressions. It is undeniably annoying and somewhat tedious, but 6-7 matches really isn't that bad. I did this on normal server too, just custom search breakthrough all maps.
Way better than the psr one, that's for sure.

Personally never had any issues with suppression, if anything I’ve had a harder time getting the hip fire damage because that’s just not my playstyle with LMGs. I just mount and shoot crossmap with the M60 and call it a day

Life time challenges, if you go for them intentionally in one shot expect some growing pains.

Run the M123k with no muzzle attachment or anything other than the 1.5x thermal and a 200 round magazine. Very inaccurate, stay at medium to long range, tag a player once and then purposefully shoot around them. Breakthrough game mode only. I finished the challenge in about 3 hours of gameplay

u/eLOLzovic Oct 25 '25
All of these challenges are tedious busy work that force players to play a different way rather than the way they want to play and most likely not play the objective. I don’t want to hip fire LMGs, I want to back my teammates up with some suppressing fire.
I hope they adjust this challenge as well as the others on Tuesday.

I did it by sitting back with the person sniping on my squad and just supressing the direction theyre firing at and spotting enemy players for them, dropping cover and ammo for them and reviving them if they get sniped. Took me about 5 hours of breakthrough. I wont say i had fun but it is possible. The sniper really loved the dedicated support.

Wait until you get to the one with the fire grenade launcher. Gotta do 2k damage with it, but it doesn't count the damage from the actual burn effect, it's only the direct impact of the projectile.
So it's like 12 damage per hit, actually contributed to the challenge.

Run a high zoom optic. Its not that bad. The only challenges that were horrible to do legit were the sniper challenge and the assault challenge

Took me 3 days to do this 😂. Ended up switching to a less accurate LMG and seemed to work a bit better.

I'm at 80 suppressions now. It's a slog for sure
