lol, yeah, I remember when my son and I were on an empty BF4 server, Siege Of Shanghai at the one spawn section. Told him to get in a MRAP I think, placed a couple of C4’s underneath the vehicle and sent him halfway across the map. He still laughs at that.

Battlefield 6 Campaign Preview: Chaos, Destruction, and Surprising Variety

After playing three missions from Battlefield 6’s single-player campaign, it’s clear that Battlefield 6’s campaign isn’t filler. Battlefield Studios is taking what makes multiplayer memorable – destruction, unpredictable firefights, and meaningful squad dynamics – and trying to translate it into single-player form. And so far, they seem to be right on target. Previewed by Mark Medina

Here’s hoping. I mean the beta was a fairly good indication.

86

Well, I’m in, just pre-ordered. I’ve basically pre-ordered every battlefield game since Battlefield Bad Company 2. (BF BC 2 for single player though, didnt have good enough internet for online, started playing Bad Company 2 with cellular data towards the end, just before BF3.)

I played the Battlefield 2 demo and later on the full game offline for years, there was this Allied Intend Xtended mod that added 128 players (bots too) that was awesome, they even had the Rooivalk attack helicopter in it.

Seriouesly considering it. Many of friends who I would play with are all PCMR but this will really let me play with them as well, even if it is in a drop-in/out scenario. I get the feeling and the impression that this BF could be a good return to form, albeit not the truest sense but as close to BF2, BFBC2, BF3, BF4.

My group have squaded up, so we’re waiting for 6pm Friday.
The beta was convincing enough, and looks like S1 content already looking decent. the fact that they don’t have to rework maps will set them up well lol

I was thinking about the release time, servers are going to be hammered, add 2 hours to expected game start time.

  • Battlefield 6 launches globally 10 October 2025, with no early access phase.
  • Game unlocks at synchronised times across all regions and platforms.
  • Day-one update (v1.0.1.0) includes over 200 gameplay, UI, and network fixes.
  • File sizes: PS5 68 GB, Xbox 70 GB, Steam 67 GB; pre-load is live.
  • Season 1 starts 28 October, bringing new maps, weapons, and vehicles.

Day One Patch
The patch notes, as published by IGN, read like a manifesto for modern multiplayer design. More than 200 changes span movement, weapon handling, vehicles, gadgets, maps, and UI. Here are some of the most impactful updates:

  • Movement: Reduced slide-to-jump momentum, lower jump height, increased inaccuracy when firing on the move, and smoother transitions for vaulting and landing.
  • Weapon Handling: Recoil tuning for more consistent gunplay, increased bullet spread during jumps/slides, and attachment visibility fixes.
  • Vehicles: Helicopters are now more responsive, tanks get faster turrets, vehicle controls are more consistent across input devices, and countermeasures break locks more reliably.
  • Gadgets: Rocket launchers deal less blast damage to infantry, smoke grenades detonate more reliably, and repair tools overheat faster. Multiple fixes address gadget interactions and exploits.
  • Maps & Modes: Rush and Breakthrough layouts are revised for balance, major lighting and traversal improvements, and spawn issues resolved on core maps like Siege of Cairo and Operation Firestorm.
  • UI & HUD: Clearer prompts, improved navigation, better in-game feedback for healing, resupplying, and gadget use. Minimap and rank visuals have been overhauled.
  • Audio & Network: Directional pings and weapon sounds are clearer, instant-death mixes tuned, and netcode optimized to reduce desync and invisible damage.

It’s a patch that does more than fix bugs—it’s a foundation for fairer, more responsive play. The developers have emphasized that this is just the start: Season 1 arrives October 28, promising new maps, weapons, vehicles, and more, with further updates scheduled for November and December.

IGN 5/10?

Bit of an outlier there

95

Take it with a pinch of salt nowadays. I don’t really hold IGN as reviewer I rely on any more, not for some years now.

96

I think that’s based on their review of the campaign only:

They haven’t posted a final score on the multiplayer side of things:

Ah that makes sense

So, I see many of you have this game, and are playing after the obligatory day 1 patch. Lend me your ears, and perhaps your thoughts.

What’s good?
what’s bad?
How much copium is involved?
Local servers?
Is it actually battle duty/call of field?
Does every game type just devolve into TDM?
How often do epic moments happen?
How close to the goat is it? Obvs, the goat being Battlefield 4.

Please do share, I’m craving a shooter, to dump an ungodly amount of hours into…
