Battlefield 6 Team to Remove Viral Ladder-Launching Exploit

Developers confirmed an upcoming patch following viral clips of Assault ladders launching players beyond intended movement.

Overview

  • Lead producer David Sirland said the studio will patch out the bug that lets players bounce off Assault ladders to traverse maps in unintended ways.
  • Clips circulating on social platforms show launches estimated at 40–50 feet, creating new mobility and attack angles that break balance.
  • The exploit undermines recent movement nerfs introduced after beta feedback and a day-one update designed to rein in traversal.
  • Battlefield Studios has already issued quick hotfixes for movement issues and has been addressing player feedback on Conquest pacing and hit detection ahead of Season One on October 28.
  • The launch has drawn heavy player interest, with reports of multi-million sales and server strain so significant the EA app faltered and affected users received free premium battle passes.
