The open beta for Battlefield 6 has drawn in many players, but some are having trouble joining matches because of a common loading screen glitch. Several users have reported that when they try to join a game, the progress bar gets stuck at about 75%, leaving them stuck in an endless waiting room. Luckily, this problem seems to be limited and can often be fixed by adjusting some settings.
With so many players participating in the open beta, game loading times can be slow. However, this specific bug points to a larger issue. The good news is that the Battlefield 6 developers have acknowledged the loading problem and are working on a fix. Until then, there are a few tips you can try to work around the issue.
Bugged Match Loading Screen Gets Stuck
Only Certain Maps and Modes Are Affected
Right now, the loading hang happens mainly during matchmaking on the Siege of Cairo map in Conquest mode. When players try to load into matches on this map, they often encounter the infinite loading problem. This pattern has been confirmed by official Battlefield posts and seems to be specific to this game mode and map combination.

The bug seems to occur only when players successfully load into a game during the open beta. This suggests it’s more of a server or connectivity issue rather than a problem with individual systems.
Initially, players reported random occurrences of this glitch, but now a clear pattern has emerged: the bug mainly shows up in Conquest mode on the Siege of Cairo map. The game’s official communication has highlighted this as the heaviest affected area.
What Can You Do About the Loading Loop?
The developers are actively working on a server update to address this issue, but there’s no specific timeline for the fix yet.
Here are some steps you can try to avoid or fix the problem:
- Make sure Secure Boot is enabled on your PC (if applicable).
- If you get stuck in a loading loop, restart your game before trying to reconnect to a match.
- Avoid participating in Battlefield Labs testing for Conquest mode until the fix is released.
- Verify your game files to ensure your installation isn’t corrupted. Sometimes verifying files or reinstalling can temporarily resolve loading issues.
Since the root cause appears to be server-related, restarting your game often helps bypass the problem temporarily. If you find yourself stuck, always try restarting before attempting to join a game again.
Quick Tip
One of the easiest ways to avoid this bug is to stay away from the specific map or mode where the bug occurs, until the developers fix the issue. This way, you can enjoy your matches without the frustration of the loading screen getting stuck.
Note: If you experience this problem, check your game settings and security options. Enabling Secure Boot can sometimes help resolve loading bugs on PCs. Restarting the game and verifying your files may provide a temporary fix while waiting for an official patch.
