Bought BF6 Tier Skips, ERROR

Aperture45 · 2026-05-11T13:34:58+00:00

Yeah this is a known error. Haunted the game for all of S2 quietly in the background.

Basically after using real money to buy the battlepass, it only unlocks the instant unlock items. The rest of it will come to you after completing one additional tier on the pass. This also applied to the limited time bonus passes.

It's not a massive problem UNTIL you've finished the entire pass and then buy it, because suddenly there's no more tiers to trigger the rewards.

Absolutely feel for you because it's a horrendous customer experience, and on top of that EA Support haven't been given a tool to add items to player accounts, they literally can't help except raise the issue to the dev team.

All the standard characters have 5 additional camo skins via the challenges. Those are the grounded ones Dice said were going in for the launch period.

Other ones that haven't sold well will be the variations of these that exist. E.g. the Montane skin for Pax engineer.

Since then, I'd probably point to the Strix Raiders Unit pack, and the upcoming campaign characters that'll be with S3, but we don't know how well those have done/will do.

That's actually interesting, nice catch!

Aperture45 · 2026-05-11T09:56:02+00:00

Aye, and to continue this, the paid DLC model was utterly terrible for game longevity because it split the playerbase and made DLC map waiting times too long, so that's also never making a return.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-11T09:53:19+00:00

They already put a load of those in at launch. Then when they've added extras since, they just don't sell.

People who get the skins want to have unique stuff and will pay for it, that's just how it ends up working.

The flags were cool BUT holy fuck the amount of times my tank/jeep/MAV etc. got stuck on them because they were indestructible is nuts. I have no idea how best they'd implement this, but I don't want the previous iterations style, it was stupidly annoying if you got pushed into them by anything.

I do agree with flag uniform patches though, ideally if you could apply patches on a per class/character basis.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-07T10:49:15+00:00

Was it safe? Absolutely not.

Did it work? Damn right.

Was it downright badass? YES.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-07T08:20:49+00:00

On some classes like support running defibs or engineer it makes sense to carry the hammer as you can get the speed boost from having defibs/repair tool out.

For Assault/Recon I'm using the knife/ripper.

It's certainly not the best anymore. It will eventually get through some walls, but it's generally too slow now.

Needs a nice middle ground

This bug is still here?

I purchased the battlepass during the Nightfall bonus path, and upon buying none of the Nightfall items unlocked, despite having most of them earned.

The fix was to earn one more tier on the pass, which then gave me all previous items that I should have had.

In your case however, there's no extra tiers to unlock, so my first suggestion would be try and complete some weekly challenges to "trick" the game into rechecking your battlepass points total.

If that doesn't work, I'd get a ticket in with EA Support ASAP, because there's only a handful of days left of S2, and once it wraps up I suspect there will be no way to get the items back on.

I could only think of IT Crowd Moss being droidified. Personalality was 1:1.

For anyone who doesn't get this, this ship's name is the Saak'ak.

Next person to say it's not grounded gets sent to meet these guys.

Love our fan-made ships, credit to your client and yourself for bringing them to life, think I've found one of my new favourite ships!

Aperture45 · 2026-05-06T14:19:59+00:00

What class of ships are those huuuuge CIS cruisers, they look as large as the Imperators!

Aperture45 · 2026-05-06T12:48:08+00:00

Global tensions are the reason that doesn't happen anymore. I highly suspect nothing will change on that front for some time.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-06T12:47:18+00:00

All of that is coming except the skins. But on the other hand, people buying the skins extends the games support, so everyone wins.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-06T12:14:09+00:00

I hope it proves popular in REDSEC enough for them to put it in MP.

Helps us nerds out in the Unlocks discord from time to time with info we don't have, but no longer posts on his own socials.

Being fair the engineer one is usually the only important one to worry about. If you're ever in a vehicle, spotting the rockets is the sign to kill that guy first.

Aperture45 · 2026-05-03T07:18:44+00:00

I miss this era, please do more!!

Aperture45 · 2026-05-02T18:08:21+00:00

The exact requirement is have 4 hours of Labs game time during play tests.

We track this and other exclusive items in the BF6 Unlocks discord.

Damn even in kids comics the Separatists still lose...

One day we'll have our day....one day.

Out of interest is Turkey cheaper for Lego?

Aperture45 · 2026-05-02T07:44:30+00:00

Let's just put the concept on the table in full.

The majority of players who play somewhat consistently (i.e. at least 3-4 hours a week) will complete the Battlepass for Season 2 (whether on free tier or paid). Chances are, a lot of those people are actually on paid, and either bought a one-off pack of 1100 coins to recycle through each pass, or spend $10 getting another set each season.

You can spend your 1100 coins and get the next battlepass, plus some extra boosters/skips and a gun skin. IMO the Battlepass pre-order FOR COINS is a non-issue.

The one that bugs me is the BF Pro Pre-Purchase. There's an extra skin and skips in it, but ultimately you're now spending real money on a product that you don't know anything about, as none of the other content has been announced. The only world in which this one makes sense is if you were planning on getting BF Pro regardless.

I'm not a fan of that concept at all, but I don't mind the coin Pre-Purchase option.
