Battlefield is now over 20 years old, and many of its fans are middle-aged. Recently, one fan caught attention on Reddit by sharing a realization he had while playing Battlefield 6.

BF6 is basically a giant box. Can't last more than like 3 min before someone one shot's yiu from across the map the second you come into view. I gave up after like 5 hours. Wasn't very fun to keep dying. Had one match where we were up like 200 tickets, and then suddenly two snipers camped out at the last objective and literally killed everyone instantly (yet the only sniper is single action, so two snipers shouldn't be able to kill 60+ people a min with that slow rifle). We went from up 200 tickets, to losing the match 0-300 tickets. Game is full of cheaters, and/or the characters are too weak. I can die by a shot or two anywhere on my character, yet I have to pump at least 8+ bullets into an enemies torso/head to kill them. What is the point of having kernal level anticheat, if people can still cheat!

Being an older 55+ player, I struggled a bit keeping up. This Battlefield seemed faster paced like COD. Snipers were everywhere on some maps getting 1 shot kills even when behind cover. Assault weapons ran out ammo too fast. I know its just a beta so hoping for bigger and more open maps.

BF3 on PS3 I think was the last game I spent so much hours on, few years later I'm married with kid, I'm lucky to get 5 hours a month on gaming haha. I don't think the age have anything to do with it,  if you want to be competitive, you need more time to keep playing. Like hours everyday.
