    Total joke. I only paid 45€ for standard edition and still feel cheated. Anyone defending this practice is a soulless corporate lackey.

    It's like the old BF3/4 days of infantry fighting is dead, the gun game is terrible and vehicles are overpowered to say the least. Any vehicle will easily take 3 or more rockets to destroy, and with a turret on basically everything, you get destroyed.
    Generally unenjoyable unless you like sitting in a helicopter shooting ants.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hello DICE. Where to begin? To begin with, like many Battlefield fans, I bought your top edition and got a slap in the face from you. This spit is expressed by your pursuit of money and complete disregard for your gaming community. Where is the kill table, who should I compete with? Where are my personal statistics? Why can't I choose the map I want to play on? When will you start listening to your gaming community? Know this is your last chance to save Battlefield. If you don't fix it, you will lose the gaming community. And no trailers and promises will bring us back. I speak on behalf of 85% of players. Don't buy this game until they fix it !!!… Expand

    The game has the potential to be the best Battlefield till today. However, the real state of the game is horrible, unbalanced guns, the game just have a few weapons (2 per type, wtf), terrible performance on high end pcs, when I say terrible i mean, really TERRIBLE..., it could be the best BATTLEFIELD, but insted of that, they gave us an unfinished game

    I've played BF since BF 1942 and this is a disgusting abortion of a game. Runs badly on a 3080ti, I can barley see who I'm supposed to be shooting at. Feels like I'm either just running or dyeing. Classes are crap and pointless, no team play. This game is made by morons that only play Fortnite or COD.

    I hope the sale numbers are bad and the stockholders will teach EA a lesson because they don't care about the players at all. We're just some smelly money cows which they want to milk.

    Anthem 2.0 incoming. They will abandon it since no players means no cosmetics sales and then they will try to sell us the same game again in one year.

    For me the francise died with this game - even if they bring a new title i will boycott them - after all those years. Shame on you DICE, EA.    … Expand

    Battlefield 2042 started out as a carbon copy of a CoD like battle royale game, and unfortunately it shows. Along the the numerous graphical glitches the games core systems are flawed and full of bugs. The time to kill is way too high, early weapons are weak and ineffective while most vehicle weapons are extremely underwhelming.

    The lack of a story mode is a little disappointing because they could have done a really cool campaign considering the world building they've done and the tiny bit of back story given to us in short cut scenes. Oh and the little animations that play when you first spawn in are really stupid, and have resulted in deaths because I see this cool charging handle pull animation instead of being able to shoot.

    Now how can the game be improved?
    1. Hardcore game modes
    2. Buff vehicle weapons, spraying someone down with a mini gun shouldn't be easily shaken off, and tank rounds exploding should affect players.

    There are so many core design flaws with this game that it can never be fixed with patches. The sheer lack of content for a 60$ game is disheartening. 7 maps,nothing, which vast flat lands of nothing, there is almost no environment destruction and only 22? Guns. Oh, and no scoreboard.

    I was excited about this game. I really was. The beta was alright with a couple of weapons. Only now do I realize that those are the only weapons aside from the "Battlefield Portal" weapons, in which there are about 10. In an FPS game, it has 20 weapons when it used to have that many in each class. It's hard to compare it to old battlefields because it's not even close to the same. JustI was excited about this game.

    2 Battleroyale pero no lo llamamos asi
    3 modo personalizable, pero que cerramos para que no subas de nivel rápido...

    Now I will talk about 2042, and in my first days of play I already have an opinion, I will summarize it with this phrase: "It is clearly unbalanced in many aspects".

    I will focus on specific aspects that I have seen. Too many attack vehicles, especially in advance mode maps that are smaller, you are constantly killed by tank shots even from behind because they have surrounded you or helicopters with dispersal bombs that you do not even know why you have died. The MC5 goes too fast for a tank guy, it does better to kill by running over than to shoot. For example, zone A1 of the Renovation map with so many enemy exit vehicles is practically indefensible. Defensive material against vehicles is clearly lacking.
    On the other hand, there is a lack of quad-type vehicles to move through the great distances of the maps. Few to no starter weapon accessories, in some cases not a sad peephole. The one who already has a higher level is greatly favored compared to the new player who to which they fall everywhere. There are no statistics whatsoever, nor can you even see the data of the last game once it is finished. You do not see doctors nearby when you die when that functionality was already implemented in the last Battlefields. Armor equipment makes no sense, in the end everyone will equip it so as not to be at a disadvantage. Not to mention bugs ...    … Expand

The second category is more abstract, and it comprises of the new direction of the game, which steps away from the old BF formula and tries to be closer to Call of Duty (jerky weapon animation, absolutely terrible and out of place end of round lines for each specialist...etc.). When the game released into early access, people were defending it on the basis that "it hasnt released yet" and the bugs will surely be fixed at full release. They werent. What we got is a barebones game, with a portal mode that is just as barebones, no campaign, bad optimization and so on. And while the devs mustve known about these issues, EA said that that they are far ahead in development. Honestly, if you want a Caspian border experience just try the original one or the one in BF4, and if you want a second world war experience then IN NO WAY do I recommend the portal mode, since there are games that are so much better, much more immersive and less pricy. I got to play the ultimate edition since I subscribed to EA play Pro to try it out, and it feels like a standard edition at best. Definitely not worth 100 EUR or quid or bucks. The game got boring after 40 hours. Oh and the specialists? You might get used to them. However im done getting "used to" terrible launches or anything that hinders gameplay in a AAA game that feels like its been developed by an indie studio over a year.

You spawn in wide open areas as sniper bait, or in front of tanks or in front of enemies routinely. The UI makes it damn near impossible to select squad mates that are on objectives. They increased the player count to 128, which the servers clearly cannot handle consistently. This is a game with tons of potential buried under more tons of performance problems.

Being new to this Franchise I've missed all their previous launches, so had no personal experience of what went down in the past. I have however read and watched many user reviews of their previous titles at launch and can clearly see a pattern that is still being followed. That being games launching in an incomplete state. Followed by many patches and updates in an effort to turn the game into what it should have been at launch.
    I was excited about this title. Especially after playing BF4 for a couple of months now and seeing what that game can do even 7 to 8 years after it launched. And then I moved onto BFV, which I have to be honest blew me away with it's overall polish. I understand that both BF4 and V launched with similar issues to 2042 and that I am now experiencing these games with the benefit of years of patches and fixes and optimization. But for EA and DICE to not learn from these previous launches is a real shame. Currently the FPS player base is rotating between games like Vanguard and Halo infinite, which are all vying for our attention and valuable game time. Battlefield offers gamers something different, or used to. Perhaps after a number of patches, fixes and optimization updates 2042 will be a solid game that will offer something different for the FPS player base. Perhaps not. Time will tell.    … Expand

    The maps are huge, and they are awfully designed. You have a desert, some more desert, two buildings and some more desert. Same goes for almost every map, but change desert for planes of grass. Out of that, we can have a nice vehichles rekting you all over the place cuz there is nowhere to hide from them. My memories from BF3 are special ones, as the maps here was 10 out of 10 in comparison with that one.
    The guns - there is no guns. Forget about grinding 100 years in BF3 to try everything out, there is just about freaking 20 guns for a whole game for EVERY class (sorry, operator).
    128 people not fun at all. You have one place where everyone just shoot each other for about 3 to 5 minutes, then you should run 5 kilometers marathone to be killed in the middle of the desert by a heli.
    Cringe voicelines, absolutely cringe and awful. BF3, once again, was a masterpiece at that.
    Destruction is good, but still laughable, as there is one or two buildings you can destroy, the rest is desert.
    Even tho i have an old videocard and i understand it, but boy, 40 fps with THAT graphics on low's - laughable, there is no optimization. Hell, even people with rtx 3000 series are getting some problems.
    Bugs are one hundred percent to show up in every game you play, in general, that feels still like beta, still scuffed.
    Im heartbroken, as BF3 was once a game, that i've DREAMT of getting. I've build a completely new PC just to play that game, just to enjoy every piece of it, it was mind-blowing. Right now, do i want to build a new PC to run that 150 fps on Ultras? Hell no, i don't and i won't. 10 years later, that is not what i expected out of gaming industry, constantly selling us a raw, unpolished, bad and just soullles project. Literally everything in that game is bad, i have nothing else to add.
    I wish i could say every little piece of that battlefield making it that bad, but i believe that everyone, who actually played this game, will understand everything i've said and alot more.
    Sad, that we live in such a time, when we can't just have a mind blowing game, as we used to get before.
    And yes, i know that BF4 was bad at the beginning, but i believe it was never that bad.

Battlefield 4 was darn near broken at launch, but my friends and I sat through all the disconnects and glitches. Even with the issues, when you got in a match it was worth it. Unfortunately that’s not the case here. The game could be as polished as modern warfare 2019 and it would still suck because of its design. These maps were clearly not play tested by the community, or if they were the feedback was ignored. Wide open empty maps with small combat zones do not work for the shining star of battlefield, which is conquest. The move to 128 players should not have required the maps to be 5x as big. It slows the gameplay to a crawl and is frankly boring. The map design is bland with very flat looking textures. Destruction is nearly non existent. It’s like the developers completely forgot about what makes battlefield great. Removing the class system for specialists was a huuuuuge mistake and I don’t think the game can improve until that is reinstated. It changes the team dynamics and creates a meta which Battlefield traditionally was able to avoid.

    Dice & EA flat out lied to players. We were told the beta build was 3 months old but the game released with nearly all of the same technical issues. They do not deserve your money, especially when the game doesn’t include a campaign, so “more time can be spent on multiplayer.” If all the time is being spent on multiplayer, there should be more than 7 maps and 23 guns. It’s really a shame because this was the game to bring battlefield back to its roots. Overall - the performance sucks on PC, the sound design sucks, the music sucks, the little one liners the characters say at the end of the matches are HORRIBLE, the gunplay sucks, the game is just flat out awful. It’s just not fun. The days of BF3, BF4, & BC2 are gone.    … Expand

It is plagued by very poor map design, an unacceptable amount of bugs and glitches, as well as the lack of basic features many of which are considered a staple of the Battlefield franchise for good reason (e.g. proper scoreboard, diving in water, switching squads, destruction, all-chat, etc.). While bugs will likely eventually be ironed out, very poor map design remains a significant issue: maps are so huge and offer so little cover that maps hardly flow well, making them an eternal running nightmare for infantry. Vehicles suffer too, as specialist abilities mean that there is little predictability about the movements/loadouts of enemies - there is no incentive to push with a tank or helicopter given how many people run rocket launchers/anti-vehicle grenades and how quickly one can subsequently be killed.

    Furthermore, 2042 doesn't know what it wants to be tonally with very clean maps and quirky specialists ("aNgEl dOeS iT aGaIn!!11"), as well as weird skins (Boris as Santa Claus) meant to emulate hero shooters, while the very premise of the game and its marketing prior to release try to paint a rather grim, gritty atmosphere. Optimization additionally remains rather poor.

    As it stands, 2042 hardly deserves being called a AAA game, or even a Battlefield game, for that matter. Strong recommendation not to buy and refund if you still can.    … Expand

    It's a shooter, but the gunplay is so messed up that I can't shoot or hit enemies. There's very basic shooter functionalities missing like a score board.

    They left out so much functionality that each and every BF game before this one had. They eliminated the classes in favor for specialists, they didn't put in any stationary guns or AA, it only has 23 guns with no customization whatsoever because all the attachments just do the same, the maps are horrible flat open spaces with no cover, no levelution, no destruction.. the map design is broken where in 3 out of 7 maps, you can't win as attackers on Breakthrough.

    They left out the campaign, so you would think.. with more time spent developing, more studios than ever, no campaign, the actual multiplayer would be better, more content, more functionality, better balanced, less glitches, great gunplay??? big NOPE.

    Then they added some extraction game mode which I refuse to even start, never played it, never will. I don't want to be in EA's or Dice's stats to be a player who started this game mode to even give them the slightest idea of something this is what the community wants to play, because it's not.

    Then, the only GOOD thing about Battlefield 2042, is Portal. It was added by an additional studio in just 14 months development, to make up for all the lack of content in the main game, and it's actually the only good thing about this whole package deal, BUT.... they are killing it by eliminating XP and progression so there's actually no players or servers to be found.

    I asked for a refund but it got declined because I already put in too many hours because I still tried to give this game a serious chance and I tried to like it, but now it's just $120 down the drain, I hate it, I don't even have the urge to play it anymore (only if they re-enable XP and progression in Portal I will play just that).

Barely any maps for the different games in portal and makes the old titles not feel the way they were. As a veteran of the series and having played BC2, BF3, Hardline and BF4 to say I'm disappointed is an understatement. No campaign for a 70 dollar game riddled with bugs. Server issues constantly in my experience. Almost every game I encountered a loadout glitch where all of my loadouts for every vehicle and gun had to be recustomized. The maps are walking simulators when you're not constantly dying to vehicles. No scoreboard in a first person shooter was a big no-no. Only 6 maps on launch. The worst part is that it doesn't feel like battlefield. The gunplay feels shoddy and unresponsive. Specialists we're the worst thing ever introduced in the series. Classes made it simple but now you can run a medic with a sniper and ammo basically being a one man army. With specialists it ruins the immersion and roleplaying that has always been in battlefield. It's something that doesn't belong in battlefield but maybe COD. Speaking of the two medic specialist. If you play one of them in my experience you cannot revive people in walls. The game is riddled with game breaking bugs. The map objectives are terrible. In Orbital, Kaleidoscope, and Hourglass all have roof objectives in Breakthrough that make it impossible for attackers to win. Most of the maps are filler space with no cover. You will experience infantry burnout.The lack of guns in this game was something I didn't expect in battlefield. In BF4 and other previous titles a standout of the series was the variety of guns. In this game there are only a few weapon types per class. There are too many people in 64v64. It causes massive frame lag and freezes on my series x where I had to pull the plug on my Xbox. Not to forget if you shoot one person you will be lit up by 5 other dudes. I could mention more issues and problems I have with the game but this was to just name a few.

    There is no team or squad cooperation. The game design doesn't incentive that type of game play as previous battlefields have. The weapon selection is terrible, new maps are some of the worst I've ever played, graphics are somehow worse than previous battlefield titles and there are only two game modes in all out warfare.

    I will say huge props to what Ripple Effect has done with Portal. It should really be expanded and is the only thing I would like to see carried over to future battlefields or other shooters. I've made some game modes and its fun just buggy + needs more maps and weapons per title. Unfortunately what makes portal great is all the content other than 2042 so 2042 is still a 0 for me.

    I keep going back trying to like the game, but after 30 minutes just find myself wondering why I'm still playing this half finished half assed game. Battlefield has always been my favorite shooter and I'm just sad that is no longer the case.    … Expand

    Battlefield is dead. There, that's what it is. I've been playing since BF1942. I've seen the ups and downs. I have always kept believing because I've always had a lot of fun. Even after BFV (great game, but they just gave up and stopped support way too early) I thought BF2042 would be the great revival. They would take back the crown.
    The trailer inspired such confidence in this game. Then the beta came. It wasn't great but we were promised that it was an old build. Cracks in the foundation appeared.
    Then the game was released and everything turned out to be a lie. Like... everything. They turned it into a hero shooter. All the qualities that made battlefield battlefield just vanished. EA and Dice still to this day pretending that everything is okay and take month-long vacations without any decent communications. This is going to be another Anthem. We'll see a promise of improvement soon, and then the announcement that the game will be abandoned. Shareholders will laugh, while the fans get a kick in the nuts. I'm not going into detail about everything that is going wrong and is missing, it's already been done in detail by others but it far surpassed "just a few bugs". This game is fundamentally flawed.

    All we wanted was a Battlefield 3/4 brought into this generation of graphics and gameplay. And you spat in our faces.

Balancing weapons and vehicles is completely out of proportion. Jets and helicopters are totally op, and tanks and other vehicles might just make it out of the spwan before being hit by Thousand Missiles, since of course everyone can carry a rocket launcher or C4. In addition, there are the maps that are simply a disaster. Everything is open you have no cover and after 2 minutes on a map you realize that there is absolutely no love in these maps. In general, the content that the game offers is a joke after about 30 hours you have unlocked everything there is and you have nothing left to do except farm up to XP up to level S999 and I don't have to tell anyone that this is not fun. The performance has also gotten worse with each patch, both for me with good hardware (3080ti and new Ryzen) and for my friends with slightly older hardware and with the last patch it only crashes non-stop after 5 minutes in one round.

    Conclusion: Do yourself a favor and stay away. Because even I, as a long-time Battlefield fan, have given up hope that the new content will get better. (Even Hardline was more fun....)    … Expand

    All in all, Battlefield 2042 has been a real labour of love for me. The initial launch was remarkably underbaked, but I can’t deny the enjoyment that comes from firing a rocket launcher into a tornado. This may not be the best FPS multiplayer game available, and there are still plenty of issues that need ironing out, but there are occasionally some thrilling moments that you won’t be able to experience in the likes of Call of Duty or Fortinte. It remains frustrating having to pay full price for a multiplayer game, but if you’re already a fan of the franchise and don’t mind missing out on the campaign, you’ll likely enjoy yourself here. The nostalgic aspect of Portal mode will also draw fans in, and of course, the 4K graphics make it very pretty game, even if it has its cracks.

    The weakest first-person shooter in the history of DICE. Even, by some miracle, the studio manages to fix the most glaring mistakes and reanimate the abysmal netcode, this game will not become Battlefield at its core.
