Battlefield 6 Beta: New Playlists Added for Second Weekend, But Custom Search Lacks Key Feature

Hey, so Battlefield 6 is back for another beta test, and this weekend is like a big crescendo. We’re diving into all that multiplayer chaos once more, and honestly, I’m all in. Apparently, they’ve thrown in some fresh stuff this time around — maybe it’s wild, maybe it’s shrug-worthy, but here we are.

Now, let’s chat about these tweaks. I mean, sure, some of them are what you’d expect — cookie-cutter add-ons, really. But a few peek behind the curtain at what DICE is brainstorming. You know that feeling when you’re tasting a new dish and you get that "Aha!" moment? Yeah, kinda like that.

Empire State, Rush, Squad Deathmatch — it’s like they’re throwing a party, and everyone’s invited. Well, sort of. The home screen now has a mix-and-match playlist party going on. It’s like a buffet — you can’t have it all, but there’s plenty to chew on. And hey, don’t sleep on the Custom Search feature. It’s not perfect, but it’s like finding a shoe that almost fits — sometimes you just gotta roll with it.

Right, so Custom Search isn’t exactly your grandma’s server list. More like a picky food menu at a fancy joint. Select what you crave, chuck out what you don’t — unless they’re out of your favorite dish, then you’re stuck with the chef’s special. Open Weapon modes only, I hear. Don’t ask me why.

Peek at the playlist rotation schedule — yeah, it’s down below. Some combos are eyebrow-raisers. Like, who thought that up? But hey, every day’s a new smorgasbord.

Here’s the roster, if you’re curious:
