Alright, folks, buckle up because we’re diving headfirst into the chaotic world of Battlefield 6’s beta weekend number two. It’s like getting a backstage pass, but for virtual chaos. This weekend isn’t just a rerun of the first one. Nope, it’s bringing new maps, new modes, and a bunch of other tweaks that might—or might not—give you a peek into the devs’ minds. Spoiler: they’re all about the action.
Okay, now don’t get too pumped because while some additions seem like no-brainers, others make you scratch your head and wonder what’s crossing the developers’ minds at DICE. I mean, seriously, it’s like they’re teasing us with hidden secrets or maybe just throwing stuff at a wall to see what sticks. But hey, it’s fun either way.
Let’s start with the Empire State map, shall we? It’s a wild playground where Rush and Squad Deathmatch modes are ready for action. The beta’s homepage is mixing up these maps and modes in a cool rotating playlist. But, a little heads-up, each day’s rotation won’t always have every combo available. It’s like a game of musical chairs—everyone’s got to keep moving.
But wait, here’s something that caught my eye—the Custom Search feature. It’s kind of a big deal. Or maybe not, depending on how picky you are. You can fiddle around and choose the maps and modes you vibe with. Want a one-map marathon? Go for it. Although there’s a catch—if the matchmaking gods are not in your favor and it takes too long, you might end up somewhere unexpected. Classic gaming roulette.
A quick side note about Custom Search: it plays favorites with Open Weapon modes. Meaning? Say goodbye to Closed Weapon modes in this feature. Kind of a mystery why, but I guess we roll with it.
And, hey, take a glance at the schedule of playlist rotations. It’s like peeking into a slightly disorganized calendar. Each day’s lineup will give you the scoop on what’s coming. Plus, the weirdness of which modes pop up under which banner might just add an extra layer of intrigue.
Speaking of which, here’s a little rundown of the Weekend Two playlist chaos:
Day One – Thursday, August 14
- Conquest
- Rush
- Attack & Defend (because why settle for less?)
- Close Quarters: Small maps, big action in Domination and King of the Hill
- Closed Weapons All-Out Warfare (a mouthful that delivers)
Day Two – Friday, August 15
- Conquest returns
- Squad Deathmatch (the name says it all)
- More Close Quarters for the brave
- All-Out Warfare: Epicness across maps
- Closed Weapons All-Out Warfare (again, a lot happening)
Days Three & Four – Saturday, August 16 & Sunday, August 17
- Keeping Conquest alive
- Close Quarters craziness
- All-Out Warfare continues
- Yep, more Closed Weapons madness
There you have it. A taste of what promises to be a wild weekend of digital mayhem. Who even knows what they’ll throw at us next? But let’s be honest, we’re here for all of it.
