The Battlefield beta is operating at full capacity, with some very creative exploits being discovered in very quick succession, leaving a bad feeling for some of the handling of the glitches. A tweet from a player came through tagging the Battlefield account, highlighting the major issues with an attached video.
The video went viral for its infamous display of an alleged god mode on the very near invincibility with kills.
The replies got spicy for sure.
Some said the exploit should not be aired in public, especially by a well-known streamer, as this would only motivate more people to go ahead with the abuse while the developers try to put a quick patch on it. Those on the other side countered, saying this is exactly why the beta exists: to find the bugs and report them so they are not in the full version. The debate got heated again, with a DICE developer himself entering the discussion and requesting that further information be forwarded to the anti-cheat team.
Really now, this goes on before a bit bigger than your silly exploit; it concerns how players react once instances such as these get discovered. Some criticized the streamer for flaunting the glitch instead of reporting it privately, accusing them of scrounging for impressions rather than helping the game, while others just turned their noses to the whole thing, saying clever players would hold off on using that glitch until it’s patched.
And then there’s the “it’s just a beta” argument. Players such as Surge and Dave reiterated that betas are supposed to reveal these sorts of glaring flaws, so to get worked up about exploits being found is basically missing the point? Then, while the real impact of these exploits comes in the form of splitting matches into one-sided routs, somehow the poor nigga players have to feel the aggravation.
And the funny bit? This is one of a bunch of issues sting the beta! Another user replied under the original tweet, saying he’s down with logging anymore, with the whole game flickering uncontrollably. So yeah, with game-breaking exploits on one end and technical issues on the other, the Battlefield beta is turning out to be a complete mess—which is hopefully going to be put to rest before launch.
Now, about the actual exploit… DICE will probably patch it any time now. Meanwhile, there are heated discussions on whether drawing attention to these issues is hurting or helping the game. And honestly? Both groups have valid points.
Which means while you dive into the beta, keep an eye out for suspiciously unkillable opponents—and perhaps think twice before sharing the details of the next game-breaking glitch. Or don’t. The devs are watching.
