Battlefield 6 DEV explains why only portal mode is getting server browser

Battlefield 6 fans are sharing Lots of feedback– Good or Bad – Following the first open-air beta weekend of the game, a recurring theme saw players requesting a BF6 server browser for a durable server. Producer David Sirland responded to fans on social media, which explains exactly why the dice Server bays with portal mode only.

“The combination of continuous server and rotation server is not very useful,” Sirland explained. “The docking server rotates in seconds (full of players) and spins after the game. In those seconds, when the server loses a lot of players midway, it's the only game you can join, which makes it a tricky combination (and full of queues for joining questions).

“We think the current setup gives us the best of both worlds, as you can choose to rotate the server via regular docking, or find an existing server that is already running, or create your own existing server,” Sirland said of the decision to limit the server to Portal Mode. He added that DICE will test the browser as soon as possible so that players can check the new system themselves.

“This is to allow playlists with different sizes (maximum players) and modes,” Sirland said. “For example, you can play the 'yellow map' playlist (any mode) containing the fences of Cairo and Iberian offensives. I then chose a playlist called 'Doination Bonanza', which includes all three open beta maps. We can play together when the respective playlists overlap. The maximum size to coexist in the same playlist.

“Things like Rush, for some maps, have 48 players, for 32 other players, for 64 players, we also want to be able to put playlists,” Sirland continued. “In the old continuous server system, this was not possible because the maximum number of players was locked (or we had to kick players).”

Sirland has not specified when players will be able to test the portal browser themselves, but the next round for BF6 Open Beta will begin on August 14. To check out Beta's second stop for ourselves, we Battlefield 6 public beta decomposition Have all the information you need to start with.
