DICE Confirms Battlefield 6 'Ghost Bullet' Hit-Registration Issues, Probes Dispersion Bugs

The studio is gathering player reports to reproduce the problems, with no public timeline for fixes.

Overview

  • Principal designer Florian Le Bihan acknowledged cases where targets show blood impacts but no damage or hit indicator is recorded.
  • DICE has identified a bug that can cause the first bullets fired soon after crouching to miss even when aimed on target.
  • Le Bihan said two separate post-launch issues are causing unintended increases in weapon dispersion beyond the game’s intended bloom behavior.
  • The team plans to retune overall bloom and dispersion values in addition to deploying bug fixes.
  • Developers requested detailed repro info from players, including weapons, attachments and consistency of occurrences, and publications report there is no ETA despite hopes around the Oct. 28 Season 1 window.
