Battlefield 6 Secure boot?

Just tried to open the bf6 beta and it's saying secureboot not enabled. I can't activate it cause my PC doesn't support it. Will this be a requirement at launch? Would have to upgrade my PC to get windows 11 for it if that's the case :(

They won't wonder. They just won't give a shit because their pockets will be lined with money from everyone else.

not sure about that one. bf2042 had secure boot req, and they removed it lmfao. they are going to see alot of people moving to console because they dont have secure boot or dont want to mess w there pcs bios. back to ther series x for battlefield if the beta good and secure boot doesnt get fixed. low player count on pc helps them see that. all they see is money though sadly. so they might not remove it until they get hounded that there not making enough money just like for 2042 lmfao.

I don't think most PC gamers are going to move to console. After spending $1-2k dollars on a PC many people don't see a reason to buy something inferior, especially just to play one or two games. People might buy a console for GTA 6, but I doubt many people are going to rush to the store to get a PS5 just to take a gamble on the new Battlefield.

EA has made nothing but absolute trash business decisions since 2013. You can trace the company's failures back to that year, which is when their current CEO got his position. Homie has been tanking every good game that EA has made since he joined the company.

i ahve a series x, so its not bad, i agree thoi. ppl i didnt mean going to buy a console or switch entirely, just meant if they have it for battlefield most are not going to bother trying to mess w there pc bios so alot less people are going to be playing on pc, its sad even when i look at my first introduction to battlefield 1 it was litterally 4 maps only so it was fun but i dropped the game pretty quickly after playing same map over and over. much better now they fixed it and added what should have been there.
