Battlefield 6 has made quite a splash since its release, boasting impressive sales and a strong player base. In just three days, the game sold over 7 million copies, and its concurrent player count on Steam has consistently stayed above 200,000. However, player feedback has highlighted some areas that need improvement. Fortunately, the developers are listening and are set to address these concerns with a significant update.
Major Overhaul Incoming
One of the primary concerns revolves around the game’s progression system, particularly the challenges and assignments that players need to complete to advance in the battle pass and unlock new weapons. Many weapons in Battlefield 6 require completion of these challenges, as they cannot be unlocked through leveling up alone. In response, Battlefield Studios has announced a “major overhaul” guided by player feedback and gameplay data. This update aims to simplify challenge requirements, reducing the time investment needed while maintaining a focus on skill-driven progression.
Adjustments to Challenges and Assignments
The new update introduces over 90 adjustments, aiming to make progression more accessible. Weapon assignments have been simplified; the damage requirement has decreased significantly from 10,000 to 3,000. Additionally, mode-specific assignments now require only two wins per tier instead of five, and multi-kill goals have been reduced from twenty to five. These changes ensure that challenges can be completed swiftly, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
Looking Ahead
With these changes, players can look forward to a more streamlined progression in Battlefield 6. EA and Battlefield Studios are committed to listening to the community and making necessary changes to improve the game. As the developers continue to refine the gameplay experience, players can expect a more balanced and enjoyable experience in the coming months.
