    Unfinished game. Im aiming and try to shoot but ammos not going where im pointing at. They kill all the good mechanics from bfv. Even sniper can use a AA rocket. Think about 64 player against to you and they all have missle and you are a cobra heli. Nice work.

    PROPER REVIEW:
    As a Battlefield veteran, preorder 2042 was obvious to me. I didn't get discouraged by the negative feedback - I liked the beta quite a bit, and the BF5 was also heavily criticized and in the end I had a great time. But 2042 is different. For the first time in my "career", when I entered the new version of BF, I felt completely lost. The maps are huge, but at the same time there is so much going on on them that you are constantly running from point to point, there is no time to rest. Operators are unintuitive, it's hard to tell from the start what each of them can actually do - you have to try them all to find one that suits your style. The starting weapons are terrible and at first you only have the scope / holo from the add-ons. This gives players with unlocked add-ons a significant advantage over you and it really discourages you from continuing to play if this is someone's first experience. And vehicles - they deal massive damage and you can do almost nothing to them. The stock rocket launcher is too weak - the three shots you have in reserve take 1/4 of the health of the stock hovercraft.

    On the other hand, Portal is very fun. Even excluding fully custom matches, you get something like "Battlefield Classics Remastered" in the package. The return to the classic maps and gameplay from BF1942 in the new graphics was great. I would even be inclined to say that if they released it as a separate game, it would have been more successful. And on smaller maps you can see a significant jump in performance - unfortunately, apparently the Frostbite engine cannot cope with SO large maps of the main mode.

    To sum up - at this point I am better off playing multiplayer Halo Infinite, but BF 2042 has potential. I'll probably come back to the game in a month and a half - around the beginning of next year - once the game gets a bit patched and maybe they'll fix the things that put me off.    … Expand

    Don't fall for the early critic reviews that EA likely paid for. This game is about as mediocre as they come, and that is pry being generous. Battlefields from 10 years ago play better than this and quite honestly look just as good. Critic review score will pry end up dropping to low 70s once legit reviews come in.

    If a team like DICE with the backing of EA decide to skip single player you would expect multiplayer to be something spectacular, but guess again. The lack of content is astounding. Very few maps, very few weapons which also handles like **** and feels like plastic toys.
    It's ridden with bugs and so unbalanced.

    1) Poor registration of hits, I didn't really understand how to shoot in this game, perhaps there is an element of randomness in the shooting.
    2) There is no server list, you are forced to play on the maps on which you were thrown. In portal you can join an almost finished game, and in the main all-out warfare mode you sometimes wait for the server to fill up.

    2) There is no server list, you are forced to play on the maps on which you were thrown. In portal you can join an almost finished game, and in the main all-out warfare mode you sometimes wait for the server to fill up.
    3) There is no table to view the kills / deaths / ping of other players, at best you can calculate your KD (you can see the kills / help / captures of the players of your squad, or the general statistics of another squad, i.e. competitiveness is removed).
    4) I am glad that in all modes there is a store tab, otherwise I was afraid not to find it (just kidding).
    5) Huge TTK, it is impossible to shoot two people, they overwhelm the mass.
    6) Too long pumping, you need to kill 360 people in order to open all the modules for weapons, moreover, it became more difficult to kill people due to the large mode, earlier it was possible to fill in the superiority and clash of teams. The task for the skill skin (red-black skin) is unrealistic, you need to kill 1200 people with grenades or treat 2400 people with a Falki pistol.
    7) Huge maps, you need to run 1 km to get to another point (in the next sector)
    8) There is no pumping on the servers in the portal, the level is pumped only in the recommended section.
    1) Плохая регистрация попаданий, не особо понял, как стрелять в этой игре, возможно в стрельбе присутствует элемент случайности.
    2) Нет списка серверов, ты вынужден играть на картах, на которые тебя закинули. В portal можешь присоединиться к почти законченной игре, а в основном режиме all-out warfare иногда ждешь, когда заполнится сервер.
    3) Нет таблицы чтобы посмотреть убийства/смерти/пинг других игроков, в лучшем случае можешь посчитать свое KD (можно посмотреть убийства/помощи/захваты игроков своего отряда, либо общую статистику другого отряда, т.е. убрана соревновательность).
    4) Радует, что во всех режимах есть вкладка магазин, а то боялся не найти (шутка).
    5) Огромный TTK, невозможно перестрелять двух человек, они перелавливают массой.
    6) Слишком долгая прокачка, нужно убить 360 человек, чтобы отрыть все модули на оружие, притом убивать людей стало сложнее из-за большого режима, раньше можно было набить в превосходстве и схватке команд. Задание на скин мастерства (красно-черный скин) выполнить нереально, нужно убить 1200 человек с гранат или полечить 2400 человек с пистолета Фальки.
    7) Огромные карты, нужно бежать 1 км, чтобы добраться до другой точки (в следующем секторе)

    negatives
    bad big empty maps destroying the great feel of old battlefields.dynamic of the game is in the toilet.
    horrible netcode issues leading to idiotic hit reg,lag spikes and server issues.
    horrendous audio issues with bad audio ques,echoes audio delays etc.its very distracting to play
    terrific TTK for my taste.way to long for this kinda frenetic game.i wish there was hardcore.
    one of the worst UI ive seen in a mp game. no joke.
    terrible position of points to take on the highest vertical buidlings possible. which makes no sense to take.it takes way to long to go there.its better to leave them and go elsewhere to get xp.
    vehicles way too op and no effective tools to destroy them.i play the grenade black woman and its a big hustle to get even a tank alone with all the toys.
    and everybody knows it it runs like poopooo.i got a 3900x,32g ram and 6800xt and i get about 100 fps on fhd. cant even imagine guys with pascal cards or lower rtx cards.
    hazard zone ? cmon its just a budget hunt:showdown
    portal? why i should play inferior version of BC2 when i have it on origin already(still played BTW)
    also portal did absorb all the negatives above(bad ttk,optimization etc)

    Good shooter but needs to get rid of Apex specialist. Add scoreboard back, make minimap/main map zoomable. Maps have too much empty space. Absolutely no destruction except a few trees. Hazard zone is a joke and should've been a free standalone.

    This game is just mediocore/bad, nothing more. Poor optimization (game barely maintains 100fps on 1440p on high end rigs), gunplay is awful with the added bloom, AOW conquest maps are just way too big even for 128 players - there are points that are never touched simply because they are too far away, no scoreboard. Save yourself a few bucks and buy this later when they care to fix all this stuff.

    10 steps backwards. There is nothing here to compel fans of the series to invest their time or money, I guess it’s back to BF1 for me.

    Edit: After a longer play time, I can genuinely say that I was wrong. This game is fun, and it has a LOT of potential. I’m excited to see what it becomes 6 months from now, don’t let the hate machine keep you from at least giving it a try.

    Classic modes in portal are really good though, I give points to the game for it, but they just took the best maps on the best modes of the best games so that was expected, but to me, those old games should not be shelved like that when they are still great to play but have no official support, no moderation, no true vanilla experience, so we have to play on awful private servers to play there. It makes me tired of giving money to EA and Dice.

    It's maybe going to be good at some point, but I am tired of buying sh*te based on promises, I may buy when it's done, but right now, thanks EA Play trial for allowing me to experience 10 hours of this mess without paying 90 euros for that.

    After 27 hours of playing this game , overall I think there is alot of fun to be had here.I will break down each component of the game and give my opinion:

    Specialists:
    While controversial, since they have replaced the core class system, the new specialists while are generic in terms of abilities, being similar to a lot of other games. The specialists work well with the environments provided , the non-linear map design allow for dynamic gameplay. While accomidating a variety of playstyles between players. No specialist feels overpowered with their abilities , there are some bugs with the wingsuit after playing with it the most with the specialist offering it.

    Overall the specialist system is pretty decent.

    Guns:

    The guns are pretty wonky right now , gun progression unlockiing new guns is incredibly slow. The current meta being mostly based around the SMG's , specially the PP-28. Being the current best gun to use.

    Hit Registration is abit wonky too as of now , depending on server latency, it ranges from game to game however these decencies can hamper you experience.

    Attachments progression is great , while I can think of any improvements there probably are some.

    Maps:

    The maps are great , being non-linear , accomidating all playstyles and providing a range of environements to fight in.

    Portal:

    Portal is great too, if you enjoy traditional Battlefield with the twists provided by custom servers back in the day, I highly suggest playing this. While the content provided is lack lustre currently , the ability to create unique game modes I think surpasses the current in game content for portal.

    For people who dislike the specialist system , the game is definetly worth buying for portal.

    HardZone:

    Havent played , cant say.

    Bugs:

    Being recently launched, their are plethora of glitches that you can look up, the game is further pretty unoptimised, with frequent lack spikes on a variety of system specifications. If this would hamper your experience, i suggest not playing.

    Lack of content:

    There isnt much being UI provided content , the lack of stats and traditional scoreboards is pretty annoying.

    The lack of all chat I think is a good decision , since toxicity between both teams occurs. However for people saying there is no chat, are misunderstood for lack of VOIP , which is annoying and confusing to why it is not at launch.

    Overall:

    Overall, the game has a very good foundation to become something great , the bugs do hamper the experience , I would suggest buying if you want to play it after a couple of patches.    … Expand

I know that's not all that different from previous years, but they need to bring back more centralized objective based game modes. Conquest is what it is, a playground for vehicular warfare. Personally that's not my my cup of tea. I love the vehicles, but the maps are so large and the objectives so spaced out that if you don't have a vehicle, your going to be running around for awhile before you see any action.    … Expand

    I cannot and will not comment on the multiplayer aspects as that was not why I got BF2042. I simply wanted to screw around and have fun with my bro on co-op.

    Before the game even officially launched, the progression for solo and coop matches are stripped away, leaving us with near-stock weapons with basic attachments. No news regarding reimplementation or anything, just a broken promise of "shared progression".

    We really don't care if there are players out there who think getting everything via bot farming on BF Portal makes them feel cool or something. It only makes them look like skill-less fools. But we do care if someone at DICE/EA decides that the solution should be that ALL solo and co-op matches, including official modes, should have progression stopped. It's an utter disgrace of a decision and shows absolutely zero thought at all.

    Aside from that, I've had fun with coop - no lies. AI on highest difficulty is satisfying to play against. It's not perfect but good enough. At least with Portal I can play the other BF teams, fully unlocked so there's some fun to be had there. My verdict -- co-op is fun, but if you're getting it for just that, then don't get it until they reinstate progression for solo and co-op. Or on a massive discount. This is my only purchase of an EA game at full price in 10 years... Trust EA to manage to mess up something as simple as this.    … Expand

    That's a tough one.

    I preordered the Gold Edition and have played the game since the beginning of the early access and to be honest: I was very disappointed in the beginning. I'm talking about heavy issues concerning the servers, connection, and the game itself. It was partly unplayable.
    I am also underwhelmed by the maps themselves, even though they are mostly working for what they want to be, they are just not as stunning as in previous parts (e.g. Arras). Furthermore, the buildings are a farce in comparison to what I expected.

    After a few days in which I put LOTS of hours into the game, I have to change this impression. Sure, the overall graphics haven't improved. But first of all, the developers uphold a close communication with the community on their Twitter page and have fixed server issues quite quickly. They also adapted some changes (e.g. increase of tickets in breakthrough) which really helped improve the feeling of the entire game. There are still annoying bugs (e.g. revival or spawns), but that's nothing that cannot be fixed by patches, especially since they already announced a huge day one patch.

    The gameplay itself feels good for me, the guns mostly are what they are supposed to be, even though the ARs could use a little less bloom and the hovercrafts are way too strong. But the game works. At first, I was skeptical about the new specialist system since I know the "old" battlefield since 1942. But to my surprise, I got used to it really fast since everything the old system did is, even though in another way, still in the game.

    To sum it all up, I am not 100% convinced, but I see the potential and since BF4 also had a really rough start, I believe that the developers are eager to improve and fix the minor issues to create a better overall experience. I am definitely having more and more fun from day to day and hope that DICE continues listening to the criticism of the community.    … Expand

    - Core game-modes, horrible.
    - Portal, very fun.

    -----

    Campaign

    To state the obvious the game doesn't have a campaign and for a $60 title I don't understand how it doesn't have one.

    They created this [lore web-series around 2042](https://youtu.be/FJVCfhLEYdo) and it just ended there. No more videos. I personally would have loved a campaign around 'Irish' played by Michael Williams. Sadly he passed away in mid of this year (2021) and now we can never get it.

    Such a missed opportunity to build lore around all of this technology. Sometimes I just want a getaway from the competitive'ness and just play a campaign. If you're searching for the same thing, you won't get it here.

    -----

    Content

    Content is barebones and bad decisions were made when making it.

    Upon playing Battlefield, if you didn't know this game is developed by EA so they do EA things. Do you know what that means, they introduced 'Cap XP' to the point where your XP is capped for that entire day for earning too much. You can still earn XP but it's capped to a specific amount each day.

    - 2042 has 7 maps (not including Portal maps), while Battlefield V has roughly 18 maps.
    - 2042 has 22 weapons, while Battlefield V has 60+ weapons.

    You see where I'm going with this? Yeah... The game just lacks content.

    -----

    Support Roles/Specialists

    First off, as someone who main's Medic... Support roles are meaningless in this game.

    Ammo? No big deal, you can now pickup ammo from the ground.

    Recon? No big deal, classes can now equip a sensor grenade.

    Medic? Pretty much pointless. It takes a whole minute just to revive a teammate compared to Battlefield 4 or Battlefield 1 where it's just instantaneous. You can play as the Medic Specialist and you have a heal gun, sadly you can't revive teammates with it. What's the point in a heal gun when you'll just re-gen the health 10 seconds later?

    The only perk for the Medic Specialist is the ability to revive a teammate for full health... And that's it. They literally brought a perk from the defibrillator once you fully charge it, but instead it's now a character perk. Why kill off a mechanic that wasn't broken?

    Specialists are more self-served rather than manually benefiting the team/squad, this mechanic is what sold millions of copies. Yet you got rid of it. Battlefield, this isn't Apple. You don't need to redo the charging port/headset jack EA. Please stop.

    -----

    Portal

    The Battlefield Portal game mode the ability to mismatch previous Battlefield titles with the current 2042 or older titles and make your own Custom Games or even play 'Hardcore' is what saves this game. This... This was the most fantastic feature DICE has done in 4 years. Without Portal, the game would have been dead at release. It even has a custom browser while the core game-modes don't even have one. Portal was the most fun I had in a long time. Just jumping into Battlefield 3 maps and just going on a rampage taking over flags, taking over a tank and getting the objective. You can't get anything like this from any other game... This is Battlefield, not that bland crap in core game-modes. It's truly remarkable what you can create and play with Portal. ----- Overview All the details from DICE not having a campaign, a scoreboard, the UI, vehicles, lack of weapons, lack of main maps, lack of Portal maps, re-design of the classes... This Creative Director needs to be fired. He still has a mind of a 5 year old that played too much Black Ops 3. He took steps in the right way like Portal but took huge steps backwards. [Here's a list of items](https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/qw8m3b/list_of_things_that_were_removed_in_bf_2042/) of how much got removed from previous titles to this game. DICE purposely stopped Battlefield V development in 2019 to help make 2042 better with more resource management and this is what EA DICE came up with? This is a disgrace to the series. Congratulations to the Portal team, I will buy you a beer. The core game-mode on the other hand... DICE, you failed the fan-base. I can easily spend 60+ hours in Portal, is it worth $60 though, sadly no and that's where I come in and say, I don't recommend it. Get it on a sale.    … Expand

I'd love to sit here and write up the ways in which it pushes the franchise forward and captures on my and others' joy for the series, but the fundamental truth is this: this is the worst Battlefield game there is outside of the phone games. You can ignore the joke and rage reviews and even the user reviews entirely and still see that this game is getting torn apart by critics. And that is due to a few different things.

    The first thing you notice about the game is the completely different gameplay from previous games. No class system anymore, now you have operators. Each operator has a special ability but all operators can use the same equipment, weapons, secondaries, etc. What this does is it makes everyone run very similar loadouts. Worse, there are very few weapons in the game and the gunplay is fundamentally flawed. Not only does it not feel engaging or responsive, there is no weight to the guns and your shots rarely go where they are supposed to.

    This is a far cry from previous games that felt so responsive and rewarding when you could set up a snipers nest in a building miles away and snipe an enemy. 2042 is about spray and pray. To make matters worse, the maps are terrible. 128 players adds nothing because the maps are so large and desolate you can still run for ten minutes around the map and encounter nobody. That is until a helicopter carpet bombs you into oblivion becuase there is no cover anywhere. The modes are uninspired. While conquest is a decent improvement on previous games the map and player count detract from it. The other main mode feels like a poorer version of Battlefront 2's co op gameplay. The Portal is honestly really good except it is still held back by core gameplay issues. While you have access to classic modes, maps, and weapons and can even use classes, you still have to play via 2042's terrible gunplay and movement. If it was truly a legacy experience this may have been different. Another issue is the terrible ui. Marking targets is worse than previous games, scoreboards are gone, the colors are atrocious, and there is just so much clutter. I have played Battlefield 1942, 2, 3, 4, Heroes, Hardline, and 1 and all of them without exception are better than this game. Even V in it's current state is better and offers more fun and better gameplay mechanics. 2042 is what happens when you throw everything about a franchise out the window to pursue elements of other games without being able to capture upon what makes those other games fun to play. As it stands, it's just a mishmash of a bunch of different fps games with no real identity. It doesn't play like a Battlefield game and it doesn't play like other shooters. It feel lifeless, dull, and boring. I truly hope this game can be improved but from what I've seen it would take a total rehaul from the ground up. Given EA's proclivities to support games to that extent I would not advise others to hold out hope or put your faith in the company to do so. I highly recommend waiting on this game. I know many want that Battlefield experience. I do too. But this game will not give it to you. Try it on Xbox with Gamepass or origin pro on PC before buying and see for yourself. Maybe this game is much better a year from now, but as it stands it falls short of the series and of modern fps standards.    … Expand

    Anyways, the actual game has some highs and some lows. The fundamental gameplay is very fun and screams Battlefield with big moments and chaotic warfare. The maps are big but as long as you actually use the tools at your disposal action is not hard to find. I love the verticality of some of the maps and they are all athestically pleasing. While I thought specialists would ruin the game they might actually be some of the best additions. In terms of abilities they are a mixed bag with some feeling out of place (wall hacks) and others feeling pretty useless but at the same time I've never had the freedom of flying or grappling around the map to get a positional advantage or planting makeshift cover for my squad. It really is fun and only those who refuse to accept change disagree here. But hey, if you don't like a certain aspect of the main MP you don't have to care, Portal solves all your issues. While I think it would benefit from paid hosted servers like older games and I hope that is added, it really does have everything you could ask for. Tons of maps, tons of guns, tons of options. The battle royale ish game mode is OK too. Now on to the negatives, as you can see this is a 6/10 which is just slightly above average so clearly there are issues. Performance is not great, this just needs to be better there is nothing else to say. There is a laundry list of small b7t noticeable features hat have been removed too. Full scoreboard? All chat? Squad changing? There is a whole lot more where that came from and it really does impact the overall experience when you expect a feature that isn't there. Next up is the fact that the base game only has 22 guns, not a whole lot when compared to past entries. With that said, the guns are at least varied and perform in their own niche with lots of attachment options. I guess it beats having 5 guns that do the same thing. Its clear portal is where the other guns went. People also seem to have a problem with the general gunplay. Personally I agree to an extent but not NEARLY as much as some are making it out to be. There is an accuracy penalty for moving and in some situations is extremely frustrating but for the most part is avoidable with smart play and good aim. I won't carry on this list forever but another issue stems from the lack of a class system. Well sort of. There are classes in the game and each specialist is a part of one of those classes but you are allowed to take whichever equipment you want. It means everyone can run around with a rocket launcher (and they do) and you never know who has what. It makes some equipment almost unseen such as ammo or health packs and generally contributes to less overall teamwork on a team wide level. No longer are there dedicated healers and revivers, but instead everyone can revive, which sort makes it so that less people take that job seriously. On the other hand it let's you run whichever gun you want which isn't a bad thing considering the lack of them.

    Overall, this game has amazing potential and I really think it can get there with support. We know more guns, more specialist and more maps will come for free. There is an nvidia driver releasing on the 19th which should help performance. I imagine a lot of bugs will be fixed by then too. We all know what AAA games are like now. Release first and fix later. And yet, I keep playing because well, it's just fun. Should you accept this is the way it is and buy it anyway? That's your call, I wouldn't blame you for not supporting this practice, especially not the early access overpriced gold edition. Give the trial on EAplay/gamepass a try with some friends and have an open mind. You might be surprised how enjoyable it is despite the issues.    … Expand

    Since all the post launch improvements that game has gotten significantly better. If the developers continue to fix problems and make improvements at this rate, we may have a great game on our hands. In its current state the game is fun, but not at all perfect. The game at this point is definitely worth looking at.

    O modo Portal e divertido, mas nao e recompensador (o que chega a ser muito frustrante e nao me fazer ficar preso neste modo), enquanto o multiplayer e resumido nos modos Conquest e Rush. Somente dois modos de jogo para um lancamento AAA, com hiato de quase 3 anos, e exclusivamente multiplayer.

    Os graficos sao lindos, mas sao ofuscados por um pessimo design de audio, gameplay repetitiva, falta de conteudo e muitos (muitos mesmo) bugs e falta de otimizacao.

Ive ran into few bugs, biggest one for me was not being able to revive my downed teamate for whatever reason. All out warfare and hazard zone are great in my opinion. I do feel some of the maps are too huge in scale, requiring you to travel very large distances to find the action. Yet, something about the game feels off to me. The destructible enviroments are very lackluster, i mean my jet literally bounced off a skyscraper but when i run into a light pole it blows up. The reactive weather disasters are fine. Really wish they caused more carnage especially with buildings and cars. The bullet spread is abysmal sometimes, especially with AR's. Im not personally bothered by the "lack" of weapons, imo you dont need fifty guns cause they all end up feeling the same to me. The specialist system is ok. I feel like it would flow better with traditional classes at certain points, but it honestly really isnt that huge for me. I am just glad i am having fun, and this game is in no way a 0 out of 10. There was genuine effort put into this game, and I still am having the classic "only in battlefield" moments especially when im playing with my freinds. Its just fun to do dumb **** in battlefield. And thats why enjoy this game more than other people. Im able to look past the minor negatives(while their is A LOT of them) and just enjoythe base experience of Battlefield 2042.… Expand

I'll start with the one I feel the most indifferent with. (Just a FYI, I will not be mentioning glitches as EVERY battlefield title on release had plenty of problems, this is not a BF 2042 specific problem).


    Gun play. In comparison to BF3, BF4, and BF1 the TTK is relatively similar yet different. With the lack of weapons you rarely get killed with anything other than the starting rifle as it works great in all situations. It's not like the other weapons are not good either, they just lack universal play. Map design. The maps lack vertically, which I would argue is what made games like BF4 special. The maps are all large with little exception making chaotic close quarter battles non-existentent. Graphics. I'm playing on PC with a 3070 and i9 11700k so it would be unfair to call the graphics good without mentioning this. Content. This easily spooks me the most. Alot of customization and content seems to be missing which could make this another No Man's Sky. Simple stuff such as the leaderboard is missing which is a literal core game feature. As mentioned before the gun category is lacking extremely. I can forgive this if every weapon is viable but that will have to wait until I unlock them all. Gun customization feels alright, no complaints. Thats raps up my negative thoughts on the game, here are some pros that I believe make it a 5-6 out of 10

    The new Portal mode is extremely fun. It's a shame they spent so much time adding all those weapons to side gamemodes and not the main game. Custom games is... custom games with little change. The map disasters are all fairly cool. I do wish they added more man made disasters instead of weather based disasters. I would love to see radiation, explosive, or fire change the objectives. Map design. Although the maps are mostly flat with no major vertical titles they are still designed fairly well. Feel free to disagree. Specialist. People hate the idea of Specialist yet complain when people don't play medic or anything else for that matter. Specialist allow players to "multi-class" and better support teams with bonuses or abilities. I dont mind it because they don't provide stupidly overpowered bonuses that can't be nerfed or changed. Once again, feel free to disagree. The vehicles are hit or miss. Maybe it's just me but tanks feel like they have ungodly amounts of armour compared to BF1/BF4. The hit boxes are TERRIBLE, rockets will hit yet not deal damage nor points. The crew positions are cool but not practical. In summery this is the average live service game from the new Era of "release then fix" games. The game is fun, but lacks personality and content.

    Not terrible, but definitely not for me!

    Negatives: - The biggest issue with this game, which cannot be fixed, is that the maps are just too damn big. There is way too much running around aimlessly, before being gunned down in 1 sec and rinse and repeat. Even 128 players feels too few for the size of the maps.

It seems like DICE / EA looked at Battle Royal games and said: "Hey, people love huge maps, let's do that." Completely ignoring the fact that a Battlefield game is a very different gameplay experience from a BR. Just like BFV's Firestorm, it seems something that was pushed down the dev's throats by upper management to chase a trend.

    - On top of that, the map design is just bland and empty.
    - No scoreboard, which has been in every FPS game, since forever.
    - No chatting with opposite team. I understand online games can be toxic, but not even being able to say "GG, wel played" after a match, is so frustrating and feels like an "empty" experience.
    - The performance is terrible even on high end PC's. The graphics don't even look that much better than BFV to warrant such a performance hit.

    Positives:
    - The graphics look good in some cases.
    - Some parts of the maps look cool
    - The new specialist classes are perhaps an interesting addition. Don't really mind it.

    It is clear to me that the Battlefield DNA that was so clearly in Bad Company 2, Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 has degraded heavily with time and I think the biggest culprit is Star Wars Battlefront 1-2.

    Creative tactics are no longer encouraged to win flags/battles. Instead it's just "go in and try to have fun in the chaos" and "oh, because the chaos we designed poorly, we're not going to show you how bad you did in it".

    What made me buy Battlefield over other shooters is no longer here. What DICE thinks is Battlefield, is something else.

    We no longer have single-player, which Im fine with. But I am not sure what we get in return?
    A "dark" backstory with specialists spamming tacky/hacky/cringy one liners?

    There are countless of features that were in BF4, BF1 and BFV that are not present here.
    Features that players saw as staples of the Battlefield DNA.

    The 128 player mode does not add any value, I could see DICE doing 80 players or something, but the game is obviously less stable with 128 and does not add value at all. It's more chaos instead of the "controlled chaos" BF players are used to.

    Me and my friend could cause serious damage to the enemy team with creative ways in previous Battlefield games, but this time DICE decided we are all just more bricks to their walls.

    I would not recommend it to anyone as it is now (2021-12), not because of bugs but because of the obvious discrepancy between the players image of Battlefield and DICE, they are very, very, very out of touch with their own playerbase.    … Expand

    On retrouve donc nos armes sur un fond de guerre moderne, avec beaucoup de changements au tableau (et ça aussi ça fait du bien, les épisodes qui s'enchainent sans grand changement, c'est sympa 5mn mais pour le côté ludique, on repassera).
    Au programme : les classes sont des prétextes interchangeables (un médecin peut s'équiper d'une trousse de munitions ou bien d'un lance roquette), ce qui est pratique et polyvalent pour toutes les situations (+ possibilité de changer en cours d'une vie selon conditions). On découvre un côté "héros" comme dans pleinnnns de jeux à la mode, mais il faut surtout y voir des presets d'équipements. Toujours des paliers avec des niveaux liés à de l'expérience engrangée lors des parties dans le but de débloquer des classes, des armes ou encore des véhicules.
    Enfin un rééquilibrage des véhicules, les deux derniers opus leur faisant beaucoup trop la part belle (avions destructeurs et intuables, chars beaucoup trop puissants, enfin surtout l'infanterie pas assez puissante contre les blindés, des anti aériens inutiles et inutilisés, etc etc....) = presque tout ça est fini ! Comme n'importe quelle classe peut s'équiper d'un lance roquette ou d'un anti-aérien, la suprématie des véhicules est limitée : ils sont puissants, mais destructibles sans requérir 20 soldats au lance roquette. Il reste toujours le Z11 (pardon, il s'appelle Nightbird maintenant) qui est toujours trop puissant contre l'infanterie, mais c'est nettement moins pire qu'avant !
    Côté technique, c'est bien mais pas exempt de défauts. Le jeu est beaucoup (trop) consommateur pour le processeur, tandis que la carte graphique se repose; graphismes au mini ou au maxi, pas de gain de FPS pour qui aurait une carte graphique digne de ce nom. C'est clairement un point à améliorer, même avec un I7 dernière génération ça ne sera pas Byzance.
    Egalement au programme, le côté "mod" (mot ici mal employé, il s'agit plutôt de serveurs avec des règles personnalisées). Il est possible de jouer à d'anciennes cartes (par ex. de Bad Compagny 2), avec les règles et armes de l'époque, ou tout bonnement avec les armes du jeu normal. C'est une excellente idée, qui apporte une liste de maps jouables plus importante (mais pourquoi ne pas les avoir intégrées au jeu de base, que diable !).

    Malheureusement, on n'échappe pas aux modes actuelles du jeu vidéo : serveurs accessibles uniquement en matchmaking (génial, comment attendre 30s pour rien !), et un genre de "play of the game" en fin de partie, avec les persos qui sortent leur phrase toute faite : pour ce que ça apporte (c.a.d rien), ils auraient pu s'en passer.

    En résumé, un bon épisode. Pas parfait, mais nettement plus plaisant à jouer que les derniers. Au moins on est sur une bonne progression :)    … Expand

    Game seems to have a high potential but the release is joke, optimization is trash and there is a BIG lot of bugs and somes of these bugs force you to leave your game...

    Hm, EA.... Dice....
    I think EA is the biggest part of this whole release. The game shouldn't have been released this year. But I think EA just wants to grab the Christmas business. They only look for the money. Please do not pre order products of this publisher. That makes no sense. There are many problemes. Mostly performence issues. But i have to say, that i dont have that many bugs and    Hm, EA....

    I don't want to defend them, the game isn't finished yet. Some approaches are really well solved and it makes fun to play the game. But DICE has to fix the major problems really fast. Otherwise it ends like battlefield 5. That would be a real shame, because it has good approaches. Pleas DICE - fix the Game. Bring back the good old Battlefield feeling we all had back in the day.    … Expand

    As someone who never really played the Battlefield series, I was excited when I saw the trailer for 2042. I even got a chance to play the beta, and I have to say that the beta has proved to be a more complete experience than the full release.

I even got a chance to play the beta, and I have to say that the beta has proved to be a more complete experience than the full release.

    Unpolished, sloppy, buggy, glitchy, uninspiring, lackluster, and disappointing are only a few of the words that come close to accurately describing the game. From the unbalanced weapons, to the horrible cross-play situation (I mean really? PC can't play with PS4 and XBOX One?) this game proves that appearances can be deceiving. It certainly could be great, but in its current state, I would never pay $60 dollars for it.I wouldn't even pay $30-$40 for it. You are better off spending your money on Halo Infinite than this game. Maybe in a couple of months they'll release the game in the state it was supposed to be in. User Score:2

    Update:

    I played this again in 2023 and after several much needed polishes the game is close to being what it should have been. Weapon balancing appears to have been more fine tuned and bugs are much less common. However, the poor cross play experience and addition of several uninteresting game modes, as well as the launch experience, still leave a sour taste in my mouth. Hopefully EA learns from this mistake with the recent comment on Battlefield's future, but with EA you never know.    … Expand

    It's really sad to see this game in such a bad shape. It buggy as hell, weapons feels weak, no story and the destruction is laughable. I'm having fun with the game but it's mostly because I'm a longtime fan of battlefield games. I have hopes for it in the future but it's sad that it has to take time after release to be good.

    For me this is not a Battlefield and you should wait a couple of months before buying this game .
    In one word : Disappoint.

    The game is alright. I had enjoyed the beta despite the terrible optimisation. However when I played the early access I had still faced the terrible performance, I am on a ryzen 9 3900xt and a 3070ti with 16gb ram on an nvme ssd yet i still get around 65-90fps on 1080p whether that's on low settings or ultra.

I just hope these things get fixed/changed soon with updates as despite these issues I still had fun playing so far.… Expand

    This game is not that what we wanted. They made so much promotion that the game would be fcking awesome and i and many other beliefed it. I personaly thought it would be a "new" Battlefield4.

The hotfixes realy fixed great issues. I played it for 80 Hours now and it is boring. I know there will be more Maps in the future.

    The issues.
    The main issue in my oppinion is that it doesnt FEEL like a Battlfeild of the previous time.
    The maps are to great and to open. U have to run so long find some enemies even in the 128 player mode. When u look at the maps from the previous BF games u will see, that the maps arent as good as the maps in the previous games.
    The weapons arent good. As an example u can look at the Assaultriffles. IRL u can use an AR on mid range fights but the new Battlefield made it impossible. To much recoil and spray for range fights. Shotguns are useless because there are not much closerange fights. The MPs are not useless because u can fight on close range and even midrange. The snipers doesnt feel good and i dont like em to play. The tactical rilfes are even more useless than ur mom in the bed ;).
    The game need way MOOREE weapons.

    Pros
    The graphics of the game are ok
    I enjoy the vehicles very much and they are very well balenced.
    After the third hotfix there where no fps drops and i got constant frames.
    I like the game and i think the game will get better in the future we have to wait again.    … 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.

    Despite the promising Portal mode, Battlefield 2042, which uses players as a tester, still gives the impression of an incomplete game with its errors and important problems.
