DICE just dropped a hotfix for Battlefield 6 to stop players from farming millions of XP in the game’s newest mode, Strikepoint.
The issue? A clever—but unfair—exploit let squads earn up to 2.5 million XP in a single match under very specific conditions. Now, that trick no longer works.
What Was the Exploit?
Strikepoint, released on October 28 with Season 1, is a fast-paced, one-life-per-round mode. First team to win 6 rounds takes the match.
But some players found a loophole:
If one team quit during halftime while the score was 0–5, the remaining team would get a huge XP reward—as if they’d won a much longer, harder match. Repeat this a few times, and XP totals skyrocketed.
Unlike earlier bot-farming glitches, this one required real players and timing. But it still gave an unfair advantage and broke progression for everyone else.
DICE Steps In
On November 1, DICE released a temporary hotfix that adjusts XP rewards in Strikepoint. The studio didn’t give full details, but confirmed it “identified an issue affecting XP” and acted quickly.
A long-term fix is still in the works—but for now, the 2.5-million-XP loophole is closed.
Why It Matters
Since launch, Battlefield 6 players have complained that leveling up takes too long. That’s why XP exploits spread fast—they fill a real frustration. But unearned rewards hurt the game’s balance and fairness.
By responding fast, DICE shows it’s listening. Now, players can enjoy Strikepoint for what it’s meant to be: intense, tactical, team-based combat—not an XP cheat code.
So if you’re jumping into Strikepoint this weekend, play fair… and play hard. The only XP you’ll earn is the kind you deserve.
