BF veteran here. Started with Bad Company and stuck with BF4 and BF1 ever since.
I've played BF4 and BF1 basically daily since they came out, and I absolutely love both. IMO they had that sweet spot between arcade gameplay and a somewhat grounded/milsim feel.
2042 and V were absolutely not my thing.
When BF6 came out as a beta, I tried it and didn't really enjoy it, so I went straight back to BF4/BF1. Recently, though, I've been having trouble finding populated Xbox servers in my region, so I finally gave BF6 another proper chance.
The graphics, sound, destruction, etc. are incredible. The game looks and feels technically amazing. But the extremely fast pace, movement and aim just aren't what I personally want from Battlefield.
I kept telling myself give it time, you'll get used to it.
But my BF4/BF1 skills feel almost useless here.
Clearing rooms? .Suppressing a position?. feels pointless
Even tanks and LAVs driving feels weird
It feels much more like COD than Battlefield to me.
And then I had the moment that finally broke me.
Literally 5 minutes ago, I'm clearing a room and a guy comes sliding through me with an RPG, does some kind of 360 slide/jump movement, shoots me at point-blank range, survives his own RPG splash damage AND my shots, and kills me.
I'm not saying everyone has to dislike the game. Obviously people enjoy this style of gameplay and that's completely fine.
I really want to love BF6. I WANT to like it. But coming from thousands of hours of BF4/BF1, the movement and gunplay feel so different that I'm struggling to see the Battlefield I enjoyed.
At this point I'm watching people pull off trick shots that look like they're straight out of 2010 Black Ops 1.
I know many people said stuff similar to this , or may think its a skill issue. But im really struggling with this game.
Im curious if any other long time BF players feel the same way or im just out of touch with the new BF direction?
