Go to Steam, then the game's properties and force a recheck of the game's files.
Checked them, 3 files failed
rectified it, but still getting that error.
will try older drivers and see

I guess I made the huge mistake of buying the game via the EA app because I wanted all my Battlefield games in one place. Battlefield 6 just randomly disappeared from my library and it's acting like I never owned it, lmao. I've been talking to their support via live chat and it's been one of the worst experiences I've ever had.

Bought it two days ago. But buggy but it has that feel of old battlefield. I like it. Thus far.

Man the latest challanges suck balls, yes yes I could just quit but im a sucker for free earnable stuff. Im at like 70/100 for those freezing kills, plan to finish it all off tommorow.
Everytime I play though I get this feeling that the maps arnt really made for battlefield, theres some big issues with the map flow and EA's latest changes have really fucked around with breakthough balance so badly iv gone back to Rush.
What the hell are EA doing? Its like they just couldn't help snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

So I got a question, how in the hell is this so much smaller than the latest call of duty, even with everything installed (hd textures and all) and yet still looks better? Same was true for battlefield 2042, while not a great game it still looked better than any COD that came after. Even just the multiplayer from black ops 7 is just massive waste of space.

Did you get this resolved? Tried relaunching the app? I get this bug occasionally but relaunching the app fixes it. I've had this bug since the ea app launched. It's ridiculous

DICE was always very technically component when it came to their engine. BF2, for example, was incredible considering the hardware it ran on. I think not going the RT route was actually the best approach for BF6 as well even though it may have sounded strange when they revealed this.

I hope new larger maps start rolling out similar to what we saw with BF4.

Yeah, fortunately. I ended up trying the "App Caching" thing and it fixed it I guess. I was thinking that wouldn't fix it as a couple of months ago a number of people had a similar issue appear and they just refunded the game, lol. It's a pretty severe bug considering the entire platform displays the game as if you don't own it. So bizarre.
If I learned anything it's that I shouldn't buy anything for their app anymore, lol.

The streamer doom posting phase has been well and truly executed then. I watched the JackFrags vid and agree with most of his complaints, but I don't subscribe to the implication overall that BF6 is in some kind of freefall, which is just ridiculous. The game's young and it is so enjoyable to me, even though I recognise there are lots of improvements to be made and issues to fix. Let them finish their Christmas break and we'll wait and see.
In retrospect I think the biggest mistake or oversight was to release the game so close to Arc Raiders. Although to be fair, few thought that game was going to turn into the phenomenon it has, and I know for a fact people migrated to it straight from BF6 and haven't yet come back. Arc Raiders is a great game, with the Destiny style psychology hooks built in from its conception. Thus, some players who have been ensnared won't be able to let go for months or years. Battlefield has probably lost those players for good.

I agree it's young and I'm also of the mind that it's gonna be fine, BF6 is great at its core and is fun it just needs tweaks and more maps etc.. I love it overall personally and if they keep doing events like what they been doing I'll be happy, been alot of fun doing the winter offensive

Every COD game since MW2019 for some reason has a massive language audio file and I don't know why. Battlefield has much better audio design yet it's a quarter of the size. I'm sure this isn't the only reason, but it's definitely a part of the problem.

Isn't part of the problem that COD doesn't really compress anything? I feel like I saw that at some point that a ton of shit if uncompressed so every single skin on the store and everything is stored in it's full size.

You also can't convince me that they simply don't care because there is some truth to the whole if they don't have space for other games they probably won't bother shit.

I don't like the menus. The frontend seems like a bit of a mess. Getting a game with bots on different maps (for practice) is much harder than it should be. Ridiculous.

I am sort of bored of this game already. All I do in matches is die every 30 seconds. I feel like everybody but me is wearing body armor. None of the maps really click with me like past BF games that had at least a few maps that I could play all day. I really miss maps like Wake Island and Karkand.

I like most of what he is saying, but that isn't really a fix that can happen year 1. They would need a larger team focusing on just that aspect and in the mean time, they would have to maybe remake 2 older maps to fulfill that request, like 2 new, 2 old school maps remade etc
That isn't a "we can do this next season" type thing, it takes like 6 plus months to make a new map, which means they would already need to have such a thing planned in order to even start doing what he is asking.
So maybe BF7 (I say this based on us not knowing what it will be called ,relax folks lol) they can increase that support studio size and have a 4 or 5 map per season thing planned.
I think the team's focus on quality is the right call and we are only here talking about records broken BECAUSE that was their focus at the time, you don't get the players without that focus and I think so far, they made all the right calls. Lets get BF where it needs to be in terms of its root core concept and quality and talk about the DLC later.
If those treats come after, then so be it.

The honeymoon phase is finally over for many people, it seems. Now we're finally getting YouTubers and streamers doing their "what went wrong?" shtick. Gee idk maybe it's the shit many of us were concerned about since the beta? But the EA bootlickers worked overtime to assure everyone that it would be fine in the full game...
Also doesn't help that every major update has broken the game in some way.

120 daily on steam alone is not bad, throw in PlayStation and Xbox it's probably 250 a day. Those are pretty good numbers if you ask me.

They chased the COD crowd - who played the game for a month - and now they are out.
In doing so - they alienated their actual longtime Battlefield fanbase.
Effectively killing their own game and probably the franchise itself in the process.
GG.
All they need to do is copy and paste Battlefield 2 and 3 for modern consoles and Battlefield fans would be happy.
But they just keep wanting to COD-it up.
They get what they deserve - no one playing your game.

one of the most sensationalist post I've seen in some time.
They'll be just fine...
The game is a regression from 3/4 in countless ways eventhough they billed it as the successor to them. We shouldn't have to wait for basic things like proper Battlefield maps and properly balanced vehicles.

What's exactly broken? I've played everyday and I have found no issues. Why do people constantly complain? Is it because they get shit on?
EDMIX

I disagree, more then enough here supports it being the successor to those games.
Shouldn't have to wait? Is it suppose to just appear out of thin air? lol
Those things still take time and I'm fine with the maps as they strike a balance between the open classic maps and the tight smaller infantry maps.
tmlDan
folks will cry regardless. This is easily the smoothest BF to ever launch, outsells call of duty, folks find a way to cry lol Let see when they roll out a game that beats Call Of Duty, releases with 100 maps and zero issues...since they know so much lol Arm Chair developers here lol

Wake me up when they release bigger maps and stop trying to crave to CoD players that will buy the next CoD regardless of the quality.
BF6 is a huge disappointment, it started great, but the lack of good maps and "Yeah, you already payed 80 buck, but what about another 20?"

Map design says otherwise. There isnt a single Battlefield map in BF6.
The game is complete trash - COD wannabe.

what do you need to spend another 20 bucks on?
EDMIX

I'm saying, I think they are lying. I don't think they own this game and its odd to say this like "another 20" cause I'm confused on what that means. They are operating on a dated assumption based on generations ago of BF, which means even last generation, they likely did not play the BF IP, they would have already known they no longer charge for maps..
So....sounds like a fucking liar to me. That is what someone would say that never actually played the last several BF titles, they are just repeating nonsense lol

The vehicles and maps were so glaringly bad from the get go.

The game doesn't strike any balance. The vast majority of the maps are not only small and cramped, but they're poorly designed with gameplay that forces everyone into chokepoints and removes the sense of scale, freedom, and being able to take different approaches and tactics that have been staples of the series for decades. Dont even get me started on the fact that you can lift off in a jet or chopper and immedaitely be targeted from across the map. Its like they didn't even playtest the aircraft.
Lets not even forget that all the good stuff that have been staples of the franchise and good additions over the years that have been completely stripped out. No Naval warfare, no dynamic weather, no big levolution events, no behemoths, no fortifications, nothing.
The game is a shell of what it should be, and the live service model isn't helping. A month after BF3's launched we had FOUR whole new maps, new vehicles, new weapons, new everything. Now we're getting drip fed 1-2 maps every few months complete with a miniscule amount of new weapons and vehicles and crappy challenges to go along with them. I'd much rather pay an extra $15 every few months and get awesome map packs with a bunch of additional content that actually benefits the game. Instead we're paying $20+ for a battle pass that makes us grind to unlock dumb skins and cosmetics that are slowly doing away with the grounded military aesthetic.
I could go on and on but i'd rather not type up a small paper lol

The maps are fine, we just need some larger maps mixed in as well. Take off the nostalgia glasses folks and actually go back to BF3/BF4 and you'll see plenty of things that have improved in BF6 since. Do none of you remember the state of those games at the same age that BF6 currently is?

EA Dice just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Battlefield culture (I'm an expert), but camping and lying prone are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in COD where you can become successful by Y-Y slide cancel 360 no scope hopping around like an asshole. If you slide hop someone over in Battlefield, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the Battlefield public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Battle Passes for either system, nor will they purchase any of EA's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but EA has alienated an entire market with this move.
EA, publicly apologize and cancel BF6 for COD players or you can kiss your business goodbye.

Not only is a great amount of what you're saying completely fabricated you're exaggerating your feelings to be objective facts. Please keep what you are saying regarding the game only to something objective that can be measured not just wildly making weird statements like they remove xyz
Proceeds to say freedom or being able to take different approaches lol
That sense of freedom very much still exist in this game for someone to choose their play style or their path that they want to tackle an objective that was never something restricted inside of this game and if you're going to make that claim fucking tell us the restriction you're talking about because I have no issue taking multiple paths to try to play the game to win a battle whether that's being the person providing health and ammunition or being the person that is repairing the tank etc. Nothing in the maps or the game in general has stopped me from doing that.
Additionally some of the things you're talking about that you proceed to think are staples that were stripped out some of those elements were not in every battlefield and some of those elements even released a later in the life of some of those games...
Naval warfare was only added much later in battlefield 5 and fortification was really something only in 5.
Weather events only really existed in battlefield 4, BF1 ( I'm positive a sandstorm type thing existed ) and 2042 in technically speaking 2042 and battlefield 6 have levolution events.... You have a map in battlefield 6 where a Crane can be dropped
Behemoth gone since battlefield 5
A lot of what you're talking about are not staple enough even to be in the majority of the games to pretend as if there was this expectation for them to be in 6...
You're basically asking for every element of every battlefield game to appear in one game as if that's a normal request...when no other BF has EVER DONE what you are asking, to act as if that was a staple thing for all games.
My friend I don't think you could name to me a single game that's released in recent memory in which it's taken decades of all the top features of the franchise and jam packed them into a single game.
So this is way too much of an exaggeration. And you don't need to pay $20 for a battle pass all that things in the game are for free you literally can get all the content by just normally playing the game but you could argue this about all the other battlefields after 5.
So this is simply too much of an exaggeration especially since you can't even tell me one game that did this to pretend there was this expectation that 6 should have did all of these things you're saying.
So I'm not trying to be mean in order to make a realistic actual claim at least provide one example of any franchise in this genre that has ever done something as what you're asking
Be like "OMG, all they had to do is add all the maps, weapons, features and all elements of all the past games, whats so hard about that OMG BBQ (series of tictok noises) " lolz

I'm having the time of my life playing the game with my BF bros. I don't know what the crying is about and I'm a 20+ year BF veteran that's been on the franchise since the beginning. The only thing I think the game really desperately needs is bigger and more open maps and a return of the classic maps like Metro, Locker, etc. The core gameplay is fun and its foundations are solid. It's the best BF game since BF4 IMO.

The actual biggest issue in the game is that most scopes are atrocious.
