Battlefield 6’s second week of the Open Beta hasn’t exactly kicked off smoothly. Many players report being stuck in matchmaking limbo, unable to find games despite the servers showing healthy player counts. 
EA has acknowledged the issue, stating via the official Battlefield Comms account on X that their team is “actively investigating” and aiming to fix it “as soon as possible.” Shortly after, they urged players to ensure their Open Beta client is fully updated while they continue to work on a permanent solution.
The matchmaking headaches aren’t the only technical hiccups-some players also noticed DLSS and DLAA options missing. EA confirmed they’ve identified the root cause for that and expect to re-enable both features later in the day.
Despite the rough start, Battlefield 6’s beta remains a major draw. SteamDB shows nearly 386,000 concurrent players on Steam alone, with week one peaking at over 521,000. Whether week two can surpass that number depends on EA’s ability to squash the matchmaking bugs quickly. Still, veteran players are already voicing broader concerns, from the game’s anti-cheat limitations to frustration with matchmaking design itself-some longing for the days when you could just pick your own server.
