The maps aren't as large as I would love them to be, but they're still good in their own ways. Image via EA There are flaws, sure, mostly of the narrative kind since, as one player in my match said, "Why do I care about these places?" Yeah, I don't find myself as hyped up to defend random bases fighting for NATO or Pax Armata as I do toppling the bourgeoisie and saving the Motherland from fruitless warfare in BF1, but there's enough in the mode itself that helps maintain pressure and drive players into trying to push through.

As you can see, I'm rather ecstatic about the mode. And you know what EA did? It made the mode time-limited. Yeah, it's an event, not a permanent thing, and that really is a bummer. I genuinely cannot recall when I had this much fun playing Battlefield 6, and knowing that fun will at most last two weeks is genuinely disappointing and makes me actually not want to play it.

I've grown so tired of FOMO tactics that I find it disheartening when I see genuinely good features locked behind arbitrary temporal limits, making me not want them, instead of the opposite.

If EA wants to preserve what's left of the BF6 player base, it should make Operations a permanent mode. In fact, it should update it constantly and add new scenarios to it, even if it means some other sides of the game are to be left out of the schedule. The company announced it's going to add naval warfare and persistent servers back into the game, so let's hope that's a segue into ******* and better Operations down the line.
