Why are guns as effective as a water gun?

Doktormagnus · 1 Aug 2026 at 13:47 · permalink

I don't understand why, in this game, the weapons work well at close range, but as soon as you go beyond 5 to 7 meters, they're literally just water guns. I've never seen that in any other game in the Battlefield series... I understand why players are turning away from this game...

i am in full agreement with the OP on this one. Now i am a AR/Carbine user and this is exactly the problem with these 2

Best realistic gun fire, damage, range is Insurgency Sandstorm. I feel BF6 look like airsoft gun

there is something seriously wrong with this game indeed. I am betting on the low brow dev team who made the game and messing about with the guns (bloom) that nobody asked for or because there is no dedicated servers hosted outside of EA/DICE control. or both

I've played every Battlefield game since 1942 without exception even the free ones like Play 4 Free or Battlefield Heroes.
The only one I've never played is 2142 because I hate futuristic games of any kind, except for those that mix the old and the new.
As much as I’ve seen Battlefield games with mediocre gameplay, the game as it stands now has nothing to do with what it was like during the beta.

Alpha/Beta tests were PEAK.
They nailed it then. But people complained non-stop that it was too hard at that point.

There's a mouse glitch when aiming that still hasn't been fixed since Day One a glitch that has never existed since the series began. The map brightness is just off and still hasn't been fixed yet another glitch that has never existed since the beginning of Battlefield. In short, I bought this game on sale but I'm still just as disappointed.... The latest one is pretty fun to play smooth, reliable, and with solid gameplay it’s still Battlefield 1. sauf que battlefield 1 n'a pas enormement de varieter de gameplay ...

eventually the gunplay is what is going to kill this game for alot of people
at long range with an LMG I'll be getting all kinds of hit markers but no kill, which I don't understand the logic behind that, hit markers means I'm hitting the target with my bullets right ? so why am I not getting the kill?,, sometimes I get the kill, and sometimes I don't...it's almost like the game is trolling
it's like I'm shooting them with peanuts ammo, yeah idk gunplay in this game is the most inconsistent random RNG bs I've ever seen

You have a better chance of winning at the casino than of getting a kill from 200 meters away.

this is the the problem i get with the AR/Carbine but one difference DISTANCE! 5 meters i am mowing them down after 5 meters hit markers everywhere but no kill. and by the way this is all makes of AR/Carbine's. I always use the default mag that comes with the gun, I am no COD noob that has to use anything that holds more bullets to kill someone.
Now i went on BF 2042 last night for a game and OMG the hit reg on that game was sooooooo sweet. What happend to BF6? It had the formula the gun mechanics so WTF happend here?
If anyone here say it progress luck it up to find the meaning of the word.
