If you've been playing Battlefield 6 and wondering why some of your pinpoint shots weren't connecting with enemies, you're not the only one. Since the game's launch on October 10, numerous players have been sharing clips and stories of the bug costing them gunfights online.
As reported by PC Gamer, what players were experiencing was an exceptionally gnarly bug related to the bloom on weapons in Battlefield 6. The mechanic, which increases the spread of bullets and reduces player accuracy the longer they're firing, seemed to be affecting players regardless of how long they were firing and the range at which they were engaging with enemies.
As a result, many players were losing fights they shouldn't have and getting inconsistent visual feedback--often showing enemies bleeding without hit markers--while firing on enemies.
The Beta bug was actually fixed but we've identified another issue (two in fact) that impacts dispersion/bloom in an unintended way and will cause you to have more dispersion at times.
— Florian - DRUNKKZ3 (@DRUNKKZ3) October 14, 2025
The team is working on this and we're looking at general balance/tuning of dispersion too.
Per comments online, the bug appeared to be pretty similar to one that players encountered during Battlefield 6's open beta back in August. However, in response to these claims, Florian Le Bihan, a principal designer on Battlefield, stated that the team had managed to squash the issue found in the beta.
Since discovering how widespread this bloom bug became, Le Bihan began fielding evidence from players so that the Battlefield team could diagnose the exact cause of the issue. Eventually, the team was able to trace the source of the bug back to a certain combination of weapon attachments and on October 15, the team deployed a hotfix that should nix the issue entirely.
In the meantime though, these issues have hardly slowed Battlefield 6 down, which spent the weekend on top of the Steam charts and has reportedly already sold more than 6.5 million copies within its first week.
