It looks like things aren't getting any easier Battlefield 6 In the new year, its new material is still rubbing fans the wrong way.

Battlefield 6's new BF Pro Bonus Path only gives players 7 days to complete it
As Redditor Venirto points out, the new BF Pro Bonus Path only lasts seven days but has 10 levels to complete. According to the user, “the vast majority of the player base” won't be able to sink enough time into the game in that short window to unlock everything by completing the challenges. This means the only way for most people to complete all 10 levels is to spend Battlefield Coins to skip them, which means spending real-world money if players haven't earned enough through in-game rewards.

With Season 1 likely ending in the coming weeks, it's unclear how future BF Pro bonus routes will try to win over fans. Several players who responded to Venirto's post said they would not buy another Battle Pass after being disappointed by it. There may be an uphill battle for the game as a whole, eg Battlefield 6 Became one of the lowest-rated games in the series on Steam in November, with just as much derision Battlefield 2042 There are bad reviews. Now that it's a new year and Season 2 is sure to come out before long, EA has a chance to right some wrongs, but it's uncertain if and how.
