Battlefield Studios has come under fire for the slow XP progression in Battlefield 6, which has led to the creation of XP-farm servers. Players are using Portal mode to exploit game mechanics, prompting the company to take action.
Portal Mode Exploitations
The creative freedom within Battlefield 6's Portal mode has been repurposed by players to create XP-farm servers. This issue has become increasingly notorious with recreated maps like Call of Duty's Shipment being used for farming purposes. XP-farming allows players to unlock weapons and attachments quickly, but the practice undermines the game's intended progression system.
Battlefield Studios' Response
In response to player complaints, Battlefield Studios is actively blocking the most exploitative XP-farm servers. The slow XP gain in regular modes fuels the demand for these exploitative servers. If the base game offered a quicker progression path, it might dissuade players from resorting to such strategies.

Community Reactions and Feedback

Many argue for a balance between challenge and reward to maintain a vibrant community and keep Portal as a platform for creativity rather than exploitation.
