* ObviousBeta: The game launched with a myriad of issues & bugs that multiple early patches haven't completely stamped out. The Porting Disaster section of the YMMV doesn't even cover half of the game's issues. The ongoing issues were so bad that EA had to delay the first major content patch until the middle of 2022, eight months after the launch. In the 8 months post-launch for Battlefield 4 it added 16 new maps, more guns, vehicles, three game modes & dozens of assignments.

** This was eventually changed so that classes were returned and the heroes becomes more akin to an extra equipment slot than a hero. Class now determines which equipment and which extra grenades you can choose as well as weapon profiency and the hero gives a unique equipment and passive.

* GameBreakingBug:
** As usual for a Battlefield launch the game can get broken in various ways, some like the "Persistence Data" or "Direct X Function" error will just prevent you from playing entirely, while others will break once in-game or prevent the player using certain equipment.
** Hit registration was brutally bad after launch, with horrendous penalties for moving, and just generally poor recoil & deviation mechanics. On top of this, there was a bug where a player could effectively get "disconnected" from receiving accurate information from the server which would result in players being able to stand next to a stationary enemy, plug them with an entire magazine of ammo and get no hits.
** The same "stuck in a downed state" bug from Battlefield V returns. Nothing fixes this except quitting the game, or having your fallen body [[LudicrousGibs gibbed]] by a vehicle or explosive. If you don't get exploded, then you can't be revived, you can't redeploy, you just sit there.
** Certain high magnification sniper scopes will glitch out and become non-magnified, making them pretty much useless.
** The loadout system will also glitch and stop working, forcing players to use the defaults for an entire round. Most commonly seen when a player attempts to lock in a vehicle in the pre-game, but misses out and none of the other vehicles are available.
** The way the vehicle huds work is that they are an 3D overlay on top of the camera. Occasionally these can bug out, and moving the aimpoint will cause the overlay to glitch, moving around at random, blocking vision making it impossible to properly use the guns.
** The Party System is very buggy, causing a split in groups when a map ends. The lack of a server browser makes getting back into a server with your party impossible (eg, you got hit by the unable to revive bug), forcing everyone to quit back to the main menu to join a new server together.
** Dice had to remove the Sensor Grenade from the game for a short period of time because it was causing severe, game destroying rubberbanding lag. They patched it and placed it back in the game within days.

* MoodWhiplash: The backstory of the game is a world collapsed by climate change, with bands of stateless refugees forced into conflict to survive, fighting a proxy war on behalf of the United States & Russia. The main trailers advertising the game and the way the characters interact in-game is cheerful and whimsical, on game maps that don't portray the dystopian, ruined future in the backstory. It's hard to take things seriously when your character hollers and hoots if you drive a vehicle off a sand dune to give it some air, or when the map ends and there's never ending smartass quips like "well well well, that was fun", "I think I pulled something back there", "that's it, I'm ready for round 2".
