It seems to me that Dice is trying to kill BF 2042, and these black screens when loading are not just random, but connected with the fact that more and more people are returning to the older parts of the game after bf6
and more and more people realize how great BF 2042 is now

I said before release bf6 was gonna be CoDslop, so many people went full cope to deny it after the beta and bought anyway. Now DICE is trying to finish the job so people must buy the slop.

THERE IS NO CHEATING ISSUE. NO ONE IS COMPLAINING ABOUT ANY CHEATING. THIS IS A MAKE UP FAKE AND FALSE PROBLEM CREATED BY GAME OWNERS. BF6 SALES ARE LOW. THATS WHY THEY CREATED THEIR OWN PROBLEM AND DISABLED BF 2042. PRE-MADE PLAN. THEY JUST WANT TO SELL BF6 BY MAKING BF 2042 NOT PLAYABLE. THATS ALL

I agree, It is starting to look like a deliberate act of sabotage.
Online play is literally unavailable now.

This isn’t the first time we’ve been hit with black screen issues.

IDK if it's because of that but it is really annoying DICE doesn't consider fixing black screen a priority.
This is exactly what Delta Force has completely stolen the reigns from them. We can't even trust them to keep the game working after 5 years.

Just lets you know that BF6 was built on the 2042 game because they both needed updated the same day.

They aren't trying, they are doing it, sadly. No idea about the blackscreen, but forcing 128 players only maps and the removal of 64 playlist Conquest in official modes was a terrible move on their part. Also the Bios thingy didn't help neither for the player base.
Still many people are still playing, because the game is that good. I guess it's just Portal mode for now.

I agree it's total bs, BF6 is crap 2042 actually feels like Battlefield.
