The Issue

 (Edited to touch other issues) I, among many, have enjoyed Battlefield from near the beginning, through the good and bad, my now wife and I played Battlefield 3 and 4, pulling all nighters with our friends in Hardcore mode. Guess these games made a lot of memories for us, but now it seems that Battlefield 6, fun in it's own right, has forgotten the Hardcore players by putting it behind a "Portal" function instead of official servers. These Portal servers are very unreliable, often have high ping and not every server is going to allow you to get in with all of your friends, they have had official Hardcore before, why change what isn't broken? The studio can do it, they just won't. Ok the cheater problem is by far the most important among this list, and it really needs to be addressed and dealt with, now as bad as I am at the game sometimes, I do notice some odd things some people do and I report then move on. Now let's get to the maps, ok some of them are fun to play, but it definitely feels like CoD, with narrow alleys, and what feels like funneling, I do understand that sometimes you just get a bad team and get pushed back, experienced it my fair share and I am by no means a try hard, but they are smaller than older maps, even Operation Firestorm feels compact, the new Contamination map in my opinion is just ok, not fantastic and could be better. The game started great at launch, but as the business model for BF6 started look more like CoDs I started to get worried. With microtransactions, to REDSEC, they seem to forgot what made Battlefield well Battlefield, it was all out warfare with tactical gameplay with your team, that's my opinion and would like to see a return to some of Battlefields golden days before this  franchise goes down as well. But again my opinion, if you agree then you are welcome to sign. Thank you
