Despite the good start of Battlefield 6, players are frustrated with the problems of the shooter. A favorite mode among fans seems to be forgotten, but they do not want to accept that.
Which mode is it? On Reddit, fans are currently upset about the little love for the Battlefield mode par excellence: Rush. The concept is simple and fun. One team has to defend two stations, while the other has to attack and blow them up with explosives.
If the attackers succeed, they move on to two new stations until they eventually win. The defenders win if they bring the attackers’ tickets down to 0. The game mode is therefore somewhat the action-packed variant of the typical Counter-Strike mode and has always been an important mode for players.
However, in the latest installment, the mode is not getting enough attention, as players explain.

Treated poorly
What about Rush? Looking at the current discussion, there are only a few players who are happy with the new mode. The contributor on Reddit writes:
“I have NO idea why Dice has decided to abandon Rush with their relentless desire for close combat in BF6. It makes no sense. It’s not even included in the multiplayer menu; you are forced to choose between Rush and Breakthrough unless you want to conduct a custom search. And on the brand-new map, Rush can’t even be played? … Dice, please give Rush some love.”
Other players agree with him. Many believe that the developers are currently focusing too much on the demand for large maps for Conquest and simply forgetting the Rush community. As Reddit user kosmokramr explains: “They have failed with Rush in this game. They probably see it as a double Breakthrough mode, but Rush was a fantastic game mode back then.”
Has Rush really been forgotten? Looking at the roadmap for Battlefield 6 on EA.com and searching for “Rush”, you find 0 entries. However, the words “Conquest” and “Breakthrough” are also not found there.
The developers of Battlefield do not really discuss the future of various game modes in their roadmap. Only the time-limited game modes are discussed there. Whether Rush will return to focus on the larger maps in the future is therefore unclear. However, it seems plausible that the developers are concentrating on the currently arguably larger fan wish for bringing larger maps into the game.
The mood around the game modes and maps of Battlefield 6 is tense. At least on another part of the game, the developers are currently scoring points and receiving a lot of praise: Battlefield 6 changes the movement with Season 2, instantly receiving praise from the community: “The game feels much better now”
