While Battlefield 6’s Support, Assault, and Recon classes cooperate to secure victories, some Engineer enthusiasts have been spotted spending their time creating in-game artwork rather than completing objectives.
In the days following the highly anticipated release of EA and Battlefield Studios’ sixth mainline series installment, players have been sharing cinematic, movie-like moments from their gameplay. As jets fly overhead and tanks crash through buildings, the Engineer class has arguably found the most inventive use for its equipment.

Using the repair tool to create drawings for friendly and enemy squads is a longstanding tradition, and Battlefield 6 has given players a chance to revive this creative practice. Designed for repairing—or damaging—tanks, helicopters, and other armored vehicles, the Engineer’s gadget leaves scorch marks wherever it’s aimed. In skilled hands, it becomes an effective drawing instrument, and Battlefield 6 players are taking full advantage.
Players heading toward objectives might come across artwork from those exploring a more artistic side of the game. These range from simple sketches like the classic “Cool S” or a smiley face, to detailed renditions of characters such as digital pop star Hatsune Miku or Dragon Ball Z’s Vegeta.
“Meanwhile on the Battlefield,” one player quips, “Where are the engineers?” Another adds, “Cut to a flaming tank.”
Are intricate drawings easy to produce? Not at all. Do they distract Engineers from supporting their teammates? Possibly—but that doesn’t stop others from enjoying the results. Some are even using the repair tool’s sketching feature to introduce new ways to play, like starting a match of tic-tac-toe.

Drawing in BF6 is actually kind of fun.

An Engineer engrossed in finishing a Dragon Ball sketch becomes an easy target, depending on their chosen location. Interestingly, the artist behind the Vegeta drawing reported that not every opponent is looking for a free takedown.
“What was really cool is that an enemy saw me drawing and decided to let me be,” they mention, adding a heart emoji. “I’m going to jump back in today and attempt another drawing. I’m not sure how many marks I can make before they fade, which is why I stopped partway through the hair—but I’ll try to go further next time.”
While many Engineers leave playful drawings for fellow players, others have begun using the tool to communicate. Support players have even taken up the repair tool to politely ask for patience from teammates requesting revives.
Battlefield 6 released on October 10 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, achieving record-breaking success. Since launch, the community has been discussing potential movement adjustments EA and BF Studios could implement. Others are hoping for fixes to some of the game’s overly bright maps.
