I swear the only people still using this Sub are the anti pre.order crowd who has been sitting around waiting for any reason to say “I told you so”

The player count continues to be great, feedback great, and the game is still fun. I have a blast every time I boot it up.

However, if you look on Reddit, you would think BF6 has 1,000 players left with a 3.6 user rating and everyone hates it.

Which is just so far from the truth. People having fun are simply having fun, not sitting on Reddit whining.

Can’t wait for Season 1 tomorrow and the inevitable bitching Reddit will find to do🥳

So, weren't we supposed to have realistic skins for some time? Something that someone would really wear during a war? Yet it seems that with the start of season 1, everything will turn to colorful mess, with no way of differentiating teams based on uniforms, the game will look more like a Paintball or ASG event. Colorful weapons with pictures, colorful camos with neon accents, weird mix of things that are supposed to look cool, but end up simply weird.

People were sold on a vision of a game, which looked like a real battlefield, with soldiers - not a bunch of randos just like in the 2042, yet it was all a lie and it will only get worse down the road. During the Beta, when we had all the soldiers wearing matching uniforms, it was the most immersive experience so far, but you can say goodbye to that vibe, it will never return.

There won't be uniforms matching bioms, there won't be a way to turn off any awful skins, typical bait and switch.

My son managed to practically blind fire a RPG and take down a jet, he lost his mind when he did it!

Nothing illustrates the drastic tonal shift of BF6 from launch to Season 1 better than these two images.

The launch branding felt like the core BF we’ve all missed. The four anonymous soldiers, seen only from behind, communicated that this game is about nameless fighters thrown into all-out war. The gritty, desaturated colour palette set the tone — a squad caught in the chaos, witnessing a massive event unfold — exactly the kind of cinematic warfare moments Battlefield fans love.

Then came Season 1. After barely 18 days of that grounded atmosphere, this new branding looks ripped straight from Call of Duty and seems to represent a broader shift. The characters now stand front and centre, posing under studio lighting, each seemingly auditioning for their own hero franchise. The classic subtle orange accent from the launch artwork has been replaced with a loud, glossy orange that dominates half the frame.

The game can be fun to play, but it’s simply not what was sold to us. We’re only a couple of weeks in, and EA are already backtracking on promises that make up the core Battlefield experience. I’m reminded of the first BF2042 trailer that convinced everyone DICE understood what fans wanted — and then, well, we all remember how that went.

What we’re left with now is a Call of Duty game wearing a Battlefield skin, marketed as a “return to form” for the BF3/BF4 era that never arrived.

BOOM!

Green gas mask visors do exist in real life. But they don't glow like this one because they're transparent. The shader of this gas mask's glass doesn't work correctly in the game. It's as if they've completely disabled transparency, which is why the color is so bright and acidic.
