A Battlefield 6 player shows off the EA identification tag he earned after defeating the developer.

There's a lot happening in Battlefield 6 right now. From the bright skin controversy to the microtransaction craze that followed Season 1, fans are hoping for a return to the way it was when it was released. The community's anxiety stems from the feeling that Dice and EA are breaking their promises and making the game more like Call of Duty.

While player counts and reviews have taken a hit, there are still plenty of players enjoying Battlefield 6's multiplayer and RedSec Battle Royale modes. But with little to celebrate or frustration for the developers, players began showing off the dog tags they earned by killing EA developers in the game.

EA developers have special access to certain cosmetics for certain games, including Battlefield 6. It's nothing fancy, it's just a dog tag with the EA logo on it, and no one else would want to have one for themselves anyway. Like other dog tags, players can add them to their collection even if they get hit with a knife.

The thread also featured an EA Trophy, due to og99's Reddit post showing dog tags he received from a developer. This isn't anything new or rare, but it's just a little ridiculous considering how disappointed the community is with Dice and EA right now. Of course, it's highly unlikely that the tag belongs to Andrew Wilson himself. Probably some mid-level developer who has never even worked on Battlefield 6.

The comments didn't stop making jokes about how the OP “killed John EA himself.” If it's a rare occurrence, you probably shouldn't encounter too many of these tags in your game, considering the number of Battlefield 6 players and the number of EA developers using them. Still, stabbing a developer is pretty cool. Especially if they have joined the game you are playing.
