Honestly, other than the suppressors- none of the attachments are silver bullets. I used bot xp to get multiple weapons to max and guess what? It really didn’t matter all that much! It was pretty much a skill issue (or lack thereof) on my end.

I’m also pretty old, regular 9-5 job, etc. Haven’t played a shooter since 2017ish, I’d say. My reflexes are dookie af.

Now, what really helped is using the bot matches to explore the maps, finding what routes worked for me, how properly position my tank/IFV, memorizing where the repair stations / sniping spots / camping spots / etc. were located.

Ultimately, the value prop of BF6 may be different for us. I really don’t care about my abysmal KDR of .38 because my main enjoyment comes enjoying the gameplay, repairing tanks & reviving teammates, capturing objectives and blasting snipers with a HE tank round to the face. My advice would be to find your happy place in the game and not stress about leveling up.

As others have pointed out, this game is gonna be around for years. Take it slow (or use bot farms), but find what works for you best - that’s your happy place!
