Battlefield 6 beta's rush mode gets a balancing tweak with EA monitoring the situation, amid player complaints about battle bigness

Summary
Battlefield developer EA has made changes to the open beta’s rush mode after complaints from gamers.
The main issues centre on the reduced player numbers and the smaller maps compared to previous Battlefields.
The MCOM timer, which is the time it takes for a bomb to explode when planted on a military communications station, has been reduced from 45 seconds to 30 seconds to improve balance between attackers and defenders.
Lead producer David Sirland has reassured players that larger maps are available and that the tempo of gameplay will change as the beta continues.
This provides an opportunity for further changes to be made if EA feels that unhappy players represent the majority view.
