Battlefield 6 is having problems, but at DICE they have figured out how to solve them: with the Portal mode

Battlefield 6, released a month and a half ago, has faced significant issues that have affected the player experience, especially with its much-anticipated server browser. Since its launch, this feature has turned into a real mess, with a proliferation of dedicated servers for experience (XP farming) that have overwhelmed EA’s servers, preventing players from creating lobbies with friends.

Players create their own fun

In response, DICE drastically reduced these XP farming servers, which led to protests from some players, some of whom requested refunds, as they bought the game specifically to participate in these types of activities. However, despite these initial difficulties, there has been a resurgence in the creation of custom games within the Portal mode, although activity is still limited compared to expectations.

Among the custom game modes that are gaining popularity are Chaos Climb, Snipers VS Runners Duck Hunt, and RPGs VS Golf Carts, each with its own Portal code. Chaos Climb, for example, has started to attract a steady number of players, standing out for its originality and the fun it offers in exploring a unique gameplay mechanic. Despite this, the server browser remains clunky and non-functional, making it difficult to search for and access these custom games.

It is crucial for DICE to implement a system of shareable folders and improve the visibility of custom games in the main menu. Currently, the community tab continues to lose relevance, occupying a low position in the game menu, which suggests a lack of interest from the developers towards user-generated content. Many players, disappointed, have stopped exploring a community that could revitalize Battlefield 6 if it received the proper support.
