Nov 13, 2021No scoreboard??? Really??? Just not to hurt someone feelings??? WTF The world is going to ****

Nov 15, 2021Unfinished 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.

Nov 14, 2021Don'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.

Nov 14, 2021Animations
I will not buy until they improve the animations at least to the level of battlefield 5 -
Nov 14, 2021All we wanted was an updated battlefield 4 and they couldn't even give us that. No voip makes Hazard zone extremely frustrating.
I believe this game will be good within a few updates but is it good now? not so much -
Nov 15, 2021Good 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.

Nov 14, 2021This 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.

Nov 14, 2021Game takes what made Battlefield special and throws it out of the window and tries to copy competition and trends as much as possible.

Nov 14, 202110 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. -
Nov 15, 2021Есть много багов к сожалению , система выбора оперативников и снаряжения сыровата . Будем ждать релиза и первых обновлений .

Nov 14, 2021Nice graphics nice sounds, gunplay, hud and other mechanics are horrible. Not worth calling it Battlefield.

Nov 14, 2021Really wish companys would stop releasing unfinished, barely playable games. Tried to hard to be different, missing features from previous games, only 2 multiplayer base game modes. Shouod never have changed role based characters to specialists. Has promise, but is going to need alot of updates and support.

Nov 15, 2021A rough entry with plenty of work needed, but Battlefield Portal is a great experience. Worth trialing on Gamepass before committing.

Feb 15, 2022All 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.

Dec 23, 2021The 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.

Dec 16, 2021Despite 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.
