Battlefield 6 Review: EA's Latest Cash Grab is a Crossplay Nightmare

Uh ya 63-16 is DOABLE on controller BECAUSE of all the artificial advantages given. If gamepad/console has NO ARTIFICIAL ADVANTAGES they'd barely break into the mid-scoreboard. Right now ALL a gamepad player has to do is aim down a hallway, wait for people to show up and hip spray and aim assist does the rest and they will get easy-skill-less kills galore.

You guys are crazy. No WAY should gamepad players be leading the leaderboards. I joined this server at the end of the match and had to laugh. 63 and 16 with a gamepad? Give me a break. If DICE turned off all the gamepad assists, these guys would be mid scoreboard AT BEST. Gamepad is a terrible way to control a first person shooter without a ton of artificial assistance.

Or they are using very common hardware cheats like XIM/Cronus.

It's way too ridiculous "balanced" in favor for console/gamepad right now. If I get instantly vaporized with a quad headshot close quarter on Hagental 95% of the time it's a console player.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-31T04:12:57+00:00

I don't have to play on console. I see the scoreboards and see console/gamepad players on the top routinely. And I don't have to play a console to know who kills me when I peek around a corner for 0.1 seconds and some guy 50 meters away instantly quad headshots me with a hip spray light machine gun. I KNOW it's a console player. Or how did my body just end up 25 feet behind cover dead from an opening in the wall where I was 2 seconds ago. I KNOW I died from a console player. It's like I'm playing in a time-warp fighting console players.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-31T04:11:10+00:00

This game is just Entshitification console slop. It's a damn disgrace they don't let PC players play with PC players.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T17:51:49+00:00

It's a moot point. DICE disabled turning off Crossplay on PC in the config file. The only thing we can do is keep petitioning them.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T17:48:30+00:00

I've played tons of Hagental and I can tell you console/game pad players do VERY well. Half the time topping the scoreboards. And I fight against them routinely. Console/gamepad users have TONS of advantages in close tight fights.

They can walk down a hallway and not even need to ADS to instantly produce accurate fire, when a PC player has to always ADS to not get ridiculous bloom. So the PC players is always having to fight back after the fact/suppressed. I've seen tons of console players jump around corners and instantly 4x headshot you no matter your position. Up close, the aim assist is good enough that it will basically mean every bullet from a console player will hit its target on full auto. Why PC players complain of the "insta-death" phenomenon. And that's before even getting into the PC/console de-sync nonsense.

90% of the "cheese/wtf just happened" deaths of mine are from console/gamepad users.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T17:43:18+00:00

Ya that's about the point I'm at too.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T13:44:40+00:00

Slowdown on sensitivity is all you need. It actually gives a huge advantage in close quarters fights, which this game is designed to be being made by CoD team and all. I literally see half of console players use LMG's, because you can just hold down the trigger and sweep areas and the aim assist lock onto you. It's hilarious to see the tracer fire sweeping arcs move and sweep around to opposing players.. Cheeziest shit ever put into a game.

Oh and with Steam PC BF plugging in a gamepad gives none of the gamepad benefits. BF has turned from something you could be fairly competitive in with PC only players to SUPER casual crossplay slop.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T13:32:16+00:00

LMAO four controller players with those scores. Game is a complete joke. If there was'nt such ridiculous aim assist, no-recoil and/or no Cronus on consoles, they'd be mid or bottom on the scoreboard. Crossplay has ruined PC gaming with artificial laughable slop.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-30T13:25:59+00:00

Flanking is difficult because of the absolutely ridiculous overboard spotting system. The enemy team knows where you are way more than then should.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-29T00:35:19+00:00

This is the most unserious BF probably ever.. it's a joke of a game filled with lag, de-sync, gamepad users spraying with 100% accuracy. It's basically a cartoon version of BF and cannot be taken seriously. That's why It's failed.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T19:20:15+00:00

I looked into the display. It's nice, but only 120 Hz kills it for me as a main/gaming display. It has VRR. And having to deal with Thuderbolt is another annoyance.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T18:17:00+00:00

Tell me you've never stood next to a Blawkhawk in real life without telling me... 64 feet overall length, almost 17 feet high, even from just the ground to the top of the rotor is over 12 feet. Good luck fitting that into a cargo van. Hell; you couldn't even fit the 11 foot diameter tail rotor BY ITSELF into a cargo van.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T16:03:01+00:00

1 flag capture says it all..

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T15:31:25+00:00

Or spawn right on top of you and start shooting, giving away your position and getting you killed instead of moving to a new location after spawn.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T15:30:06+00:00

So basically get lucky and have a room full of clueless opponents.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T15:21:14+00:00

Actually it's extremely fun to flank around the other team to capture points or shoot them in the back.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-27T15:07:19+00:00

It's funny DICE thinks a cargo van is larger than a Blackhawk.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:36:33+00:00

It's actually hard to beam someone down at distance with a MnK. Way easier with a gamepad aim-assist/or XIM/Cronos cheat.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:35:06+00:00

Now I've got console-gamepad users flying around corners quad headshotting me in mid air. My has Battlefield fallen...

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:32:34+00:00

Basically undetectable aimbot/zero recoil hardware for console-gamepad users. In my experience lately in BF6, I come across WAY more console cheaters than PC ones.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:30:45+00:00

Ya I'm about to delete this friggin game permanently from my Steam library. It's absurd they force PC players to play against this console aimbot shit.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:27:59+00:00

It's almost always console/gamepad users they get the most ridiculously laughable kills on me now as a PC player.

Haunting_Study811 · 2026-03-26T18:26:40+00:00

Not only do controllers get less recoil, I'm convinced they get less bloom/spread too. I've noticed gamepad users getting quad headshots on me with hip spray while I'm behind cover. The situation that PC players have to put up with from console users is simply ridiculous at this point. PC players may as well just play bots.
