In Battlefield 6, players can spot enemy positions using several methods: by using the middle mouse button or the Q key to ping targets, utilizing the Recon class to spot enemies while aiming down sights, deploying a Recon Drone to identify enemies within its targeting reticle, using a Motion Sensor to detect nearby enemies, and employing Proximity Grenades for a limited detection duration. The Recon class is particularly effective for spotting, especially when placing a Motion Sensor at control points. The M2010 ESR sniper rifle is recommended for players in the Recon class, and familiarity with the maps enhances spotting capabilities.
