Your Battlefield 6 Stats Are Lying to You — Here’s What’s Throwing Them Off

Battlefield 6 finally has an actual in-game stat page. Love that for us. The problem is, some players are juicing those numbers so hard they might as well come with a warning label.

The good: stats in the game at last

Since launch on October 10, 2025, you can open the Profile tab on the main menu and see the stuff everyone always asks about: total kills, K/D, revives, and a bunch of other highlights. No more digging through third-party sites to find out if you were actually helpful last night or just loud on comms.

The bad: Portal is letting people fake it till they make it

Portal is back from Battlefield 2042, and this time it is wildly flexible. There is a new Spatial Editor built on the Godot engine that lets players tweak existing maps, rewrite rules, and even build brand-new maps. EA has been cheerleading this creativity, and they made a big point of allowing XP in every mode, Portal included.

And that is where things broke. Players are spinning up Portal servers stuffed with bots and turning them into stat farms. By spawn-trapping AI, you can rack up thousands of kills in minutes, which sends your K/D and other tracked numbers into the stratosphere. Looks great on your stat page. Means almost nothing.

'Maybe make a separate stat page for Portal?'

EA tried to guard against this... kind of

Before launch, EA said they were worried about 'lower effort EXP farms.' Senior designer Olivier Thivierge (via Epic Games) explained that Battlefield 6 splits Portal into two buckets:

• Verified Experiences: Official or EA-approved modes with full progression rewards.
• Custom Experiences: Community-made lobbies that use a time-based XP system to limit abuse.

That helps with XP farming. What it does not stop is stat farming. Even if XP is throttled, those bot kills still count toward your lifetime stats. So legit players and AI farmers end up on the same stat page, and there is no obvious way to tell who earned what.

Players are noticing, and they are not thrilled

ModernWarzone flagged the issue on October 15, suggesting a dedicated Portal stat page. Others pointed out there are still no in-game leaderboards, so flexing a padded K/D is extra pointless unless you are talking about stuff that actually wins matches, like captures, vehicle repairs/destroys, or revives. One player said the quiet part out loud: they landed in a bot-heavy lobby by accident, watched their stats jump, and now avoid any match with lots of AI because it makes their page feel fake.

What needs fixing

If the stat page exists, it should mean something. Right now it is mixing real multiplayer performance with AI farm numbers, which is... not great. Easiest path forward: separate Portal stats from the main page, or at least exclude AI kills from lifetime metrics like K/D. Even a simple flag that marks Portal-derived stats would be a start.

The bottom line

Battlefield has always been more about teamwork, vehicles, and objectives than e-peen numbers. But EA built a stat page, and the current setup makes those stats hard to trust. Until EA separates or labels Portal data, take every Battlefield 6 profile you see (including your own) with a big grain of salt.
