Now just days away from launch, Battlefield Studios has published a new blog outlining changes made to Battlefield 6 since the August open beta. Movement is more "responsive," recoil has increased to resemble past games, and those unpopular Rush map layouts have received a second pass.

It's good news all around, unless you're one of the many Battlefield 6 beta players who didn't like its new "Open Weapons" default—a ruleset that lets any class use any weapon a la Call of Duty.
