Battlefield 6 - What I Saw on Day One

Battlefield 6 is here, and it’s not just a visual upgrade—it’s a whole vibe shift.
In this Day One review, I'm diving into first impressions across game modes, maps, and mechanics.
From smooth matchmaking and tight gunplay to revamped menus and cinematic sound design, this isn’t just another Battlefield—it’s a refined, deliberate evolution.
I explored Portal mode changes, AI bot behavior, and XP progression quirks.
I got some insights on squad play (or lack thereof), revive mechanics, and how map design balances polish with chaos.
Whether you're a veteran of BF3/BF4 or new to the franchise, this is an initial first impressions covering recoil and reload speeds to vehicle handling and weapon balance.
Plus: thoughts on campaign inclusion, visual fidelity, and why reviving teammates still matters.
Join the conversation, share your launch experience, and stay tuned for deeper dives into Portal and campaign mode.
