Battlefield 6 Players Aren’t Happy With The Game’s Season 1 Roadmap

by

Okay, so I’m seeing a lot of Battlefield 6 players aren’t thrilled with what DICE has planned for the future. Honestly, some are saying the game feels unfinished compared to older Battlefield titles. Season 1 kicks off on October 28th, but a lot of us are already disappointed with the content they’ve shown. People are even calling the new modes ‘Call of Duty modes,’ which isn’t a good sign when you’re a Battlefield fan!

Even though some longtime fans were hesitant, *Battlefield 6* has launched very successfully. Many consider it a strong return to the series’ roots after the troubled release of *Battlefield 2042* in 2021, bringing back popular features and gameplay. Within just over an hour of release, the game reached over 747,000 players simultaneously on Steam, making it one of the platform’s most popular games. Publisher EA has also announced that 7 million copies were sold in the first three days.

Battlefield 6 Players Are Tired of “COD Modes”

Despite the game’s huge popularity and record sales, many players aren’t completely satisfied. A recent Reddit post with almost 5,000 upvotes highlights concerns that the latest *Battlefield* game feels unfinished. User Round_Reception_2315 points out that it’s missing key features from older *Battlefield* titles, like artillery strikes, the ability to call in bombers or cruise missiles, and powerful aircraft such as the AC-130 and A-10. A major complaint is the lack of large maps where these features would really shine.

The user criticized the planned updates for *Battlefield 6*, pointing out that the announced new modes—4v4 and 8v8—felt similar to those in *Call of Duty*. They questioned whether the developers at DICE had lost sight of what *Battlefield* players actually want: large-scale battles on big maps that last a long time.

DICE recently made changes to the Conquest mode in *Battlefield 6*, reducing the number of tickets to make matches shorter. However, many players felt this addressed a problem that didn’t really exist, as few people were complaining about match length in the first place. With the new 4v4 and 8v8 modes added in Season 1, it’s clear DICE is prioritizing quicker, more intense battles, which has upset some longtime *Battlefield* fans. Despite a lot of agreement online, many commenters pointed out that while the features mentioned contributed to the game’s grand scale, they were often frustrating and didn’t require much skill.

For twenty years, *Battlefield* and *Call of Duty* have been rivals, with *Call of Duty* typically selling more copies. However, it looks like that might change this year. Although the next *Call of Duty* game, *Black Ops 7*, isn’t out for several weeks, *Battlefield 6* is attracting many *Call of Duty* players with its realistic style and exciting gameplay. Some longtime *Battlefield* fans aren’t happy with the changes in *Battlefield 6*, but the game’s impressive sales and player numbers show that these changes are a hit and are good for the future of the series.
