Nov 15, 2021openfield 2042
no classes
cod style
poor optimisation
no scoreboard
no squad change
insane bullet spray
unbalanced amount of vehicles -
Nov 15, 2021Absolutely terrible game. EA said that portal was a love letter to fans but it feels more like a slap in the face. The entire game including portal is horrible. Absolute waste of money. Once again EA has released a bad game just in time for them to take in their Christmas money

Nov 15, 2021Dull maps
2 LMGs?
Poor weapon customisations
No scoreboard?!
Laggy servers
Rife with cheaters
No functioning chat
No voice comms
Persistent FPS drops seemingly from nowhere
The game feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be, R6? CoD? BF? Give us something good, not a pile of half-arsed trash disguised as a BF game loaded with microtransactions. -

Nov 15, 2021Игра максимально отсылает к предыдущим частям и это прекрасно. В плане оптимизации нужно просто подождать

Nov 15, 2021What,multiplayer mode for 100$

Nov 15, 2021Lots of bugs. Plese fix. Not enough maps for portal.
-
Nov 15, 2021After the failiour of bfv dice and ea had an opportunity to put right the wrongs of that game instead they have took the franchise even further away from what made battfeild a unique experience in 2042 to the point where you question what direction are they going.
-
Nov 15, 2021Lots of basic systems missing. Definitely feels like a rushed call of duty clone. Maybe in a year after several big patches it will be good. Save your money for now.
-
Nov 15, 2021Seems like they spent the last 3 years making a tornado , also feels like a running simulator.

Nov 15, 2021Wow... we had it good with Battlefield V, which was the series' worst in the series. It's like they started building this as a hero battle royale game, and switched it to a full-fledged... uh... "Battlefield" game in the middle. Wouldn't surprise me if this kills Battlefield.

Nov 15, 2021No scoreboards.
No classes.

Nov 15, 2021Monótono y aburrido como siempre, que tenga bonitos gráficos no lo hace un buen juego.
-
Nov 15, 2021During the beta phase I already said to people that BF2042 would need another 6 months of polishing work, now the game is released I tell people it needs another 12 months of polishing.
Portal is decent, but I didn’t bought this game for Portal. -

Nov 15, 2021All i can say after playing everything from BC2 to this is: WTF IS THIS ****?
To hell with your critic reviews, the game is broken, the designers were either high or "special", the content is less than ****, and the performance..............? TOTAL ****
ON ROG CHAKRAM THE GAME IS COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DICE, NEVER AGAIN! -
Nov 15, 2021Playing some of my 10 free hours of this unfun dumpster fire, then never looking at it again.
Not ready for release, period. Horrible optimization on a high end gaming PC. Terrible Network and hit detection. Barely any weapons, and doesn't feel like a Battlefield game. More of a running simulator. -
Nov 15, 2021

Nov 15, 2021**** game, honestly. Sure there are a ton bugs and features are missing right, that's horrible, but I am literally unable to play the game. if i get the bug where your teammates see you as an enemy, and then you die, you just lie there on the ground for whole game- no one can revive you, you cant respawn. Horrible and unplayable at that.
-
Nov 15, 2021The animations for this game are terrible. Movement feels clunky. Hazard zone was lazy. Portal was underwhelming especially with the poor implementation of old weapons

Nov 15, 2021Best shooter. No bags, nice ttk. Portal top game rejim. Custom servers suks

Nov 15, 2021Despite what the brigading crew is doing to the User reading, this is the best BF game since BF4. It has is a return to the dna that made BF2, BFBC, BF3, and BF4 such memorable and unique experiences. While not perfect, the game has launched in a better state than most of it’s predecessors and with nearly limitless replayability and gameplay customization through Battlefield Portal.
-
Nov 15, 2021I know a 0 is harsh but I am completely fed up with broken unplayable games at launch, and stripped or missing features we expect as battlefield fans. If you want a different still a game make a different game and leave our battlefield alone.

Nov 15, 2021This is the worst part of whole BF series.
After couple of hours I don't want to play it anymore.
A taunt from DICE - take ugly boring battle royal maps, make tons of bugs and release it as a AAA-shooter.
Ok, DICE, good job. -
Nov 15, 2021the game is soo good all these people are just pissed at small bugs but the game itself is really fun. why call the game garbage when its not even fully released ?
-
Nov 15, 2021Bugs after bugs in 30fps, only have 4 ar, 3 pistol. Nothing but a waste of money
-
Nov 15, 2021Gostei do jogo. Principalmente do modo portal onde você pode jogar os outros Battlefield!
-
Nov 15, 2021Game's not perfect but fully enjoyable even for shooters noobs like myself. I actually like the fact that maps are large and not crowded in order to move and decide your own game strategy. Recommended.
-
Nov 15, 2021full of bugs and missing many features from previous battlefield games. waste of money
-
Nov 15, 2021A return to what made battlefield great. No story, no appeal to realism, just large scale chaos and fun. The vehicles feel great, especially the helicopters. Still a few bugs in the early access but nothing game breaking or inhibiting normal play. Keen to see how it develops
-
Nov 15, 2021Obviously pushed to make shareholders money at the end of the year. Don't buy this in its current alpha state. Once the game releases you will see EA put out an "oops sorry we saw this coming thanks for the money get **** post and it won't be really playable till March.
-
Nov 15, 2021The game is so bad it made me quit gaming altogether.
Bugs, bloom, no scoreboard, imbalanced weapons (SMGs better at range than ARs), one hit sniper (NTW-50), poor performance, sluggish aiming and the list goes on -

Nov 15, 2021The game is just not fun to play anymore. They've removed way too much stuff. Why would an FPS have no scoreboard?
-
Nov 15, 2021This game would be like a 5/10 if It didn't have RANDOM BULLET SPREAD. The guns are literally broken 0/10

Nov 15, 2021Really disappointing. The gunplay isn't good, the UI makes it so hard to tell what's going on. The bugs are also pretty horrendous too. Might be sorted in 6 months / a year but who knows.
-
Nov 15, 2021They say BF3 had a bad start. They say BF4 had a bad start too...
BF2042 definetly has a bad start. This game is no fun at the moment. Game modes are boring, maps are too big. Performance is bad. The only highlight seems to be portal mode, which teleports u back to the good old days of ancient BF titles... well they should have made a BF3 or BF4 remake then... -
Nov 15, 2021Pre alpha gameplay. Miss the feeling of being on a battlefield like Bf 5 bf1 where awesome. Maps are so complicated and bad designed. They need to improve a lot over the next month otherwise it’s a big flop…
-
Nov 15, 2021Call of Duty: 2042

Nov 15, 2021A very fun game that creates some epic moments. Visually stunning and runs smoother than most are complaining about. Be wary of the negative reviews, seems like the BF community loves to review bomb at launch cause their precious game is different than their view. Cancel culture is getting out of hand.

Nov 15, 2021В этой игре всё ужасно!
-Плохие технические характеристики.
-Плохая графика.
-Плохой геймплей.
-Плохая разрушаемость.
- Очень мало оружия.

- Много читеров.
P.S. Эта игра не имеет ничего общего с Battlefield. -

Nov 15, 2021Это просто ужас! Современный геймдев совсем обнаглел выпуская забагованные игры со сломанным балансом за полную цену. Журналистам нет доверия игру облизали все кому не лень.

Nov 15, 2021This is not Battlefield anymore, even the maps are terrible. I'm just sad...well back to BFV
-
Nov 15, 2021This is hands down the worst battle field game ever released full stop period. Frankly it is a complete waste of your money and is a massive step backwards in every conceivable way for the franchise, devoid of content, lacking innumerable key features, with extremely poor performance on pc regardless of your rig and very buggy.
DO NOT BUY BF2042 YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! -

Nov 15, 2021Poor design choices. A publisher/developer that is just out of touch with what the player wants. Lost some respect for the franchise. Sad to see one of my old favorites get this kind of treatment. Really hope Halo puts out a good shooter this year so we at least have one.
-
Nov 15, 2021As others say:
No scoreboards.
No classes.
No destruction.
No servers.
No stats.
No chat.
also bad UI, terrible. -
Nov 15, 2021Horrible game, 4 assault rifles, 3 snipers, 2 pistols. Laggy servers cant support the load. Guns won’t shoot at times and you cannot exit vehicles quite often. Sometimes you can’t even respawn. Not worth the wait, should have been delayed even longer .
-
Nov 15, 2021Battlefield 2042 in it's current Early Access state is very bad. Many issues which have to be fixed asap. Hit registration is bad, performance is bad, maps feel empty and too big, missing UI features.
-
Nov 15, 2021Got a "more-than-decent" computersetup. Can't even push it past 35 FPS. It worked for a couple of hours @ 60fps-isch at the launch. Now it just crashes.
Not really worth to buy gold when you cant even play it. -
Nov 15, 2021Everything we were worried about was correct. Tried to copy multiple other games success at the sake of their own. I've been playing since 1942 and after playing the trial I have absolutely no intention of buying a battlefield game again.
-
Nov 15, 2021Just make battlefield 3 with upgraded graphics.
Why u always try sell cod/tarkov/fortnite/apex to battlefield fans? -
Nov 15, 2021Absolut Garbage I NEVER EVER PLAYED A BATTLEFIELD GAME THAT WAS THIS BAD as a Battlefield Veteran i just can't approve this EA **** anymore... Just makes me sad
-
Nov 15, 2021Unfortunately the Battlefield franchise hits a new low, low fidelity graphics even on high end systems, plagued with bugs, poor gunplay - how the game's taken so many steps back I don't know! I had more fun with Cyberpunk at launch than this!

Nov 15, 2021The amount of copium people be smoking in unreal. This game is a poor mans battlefield and how poorly opimised it is, is enough reason to give it a low score. Game feels like a step backwards in every way. At least bf5 ran well on launch despite other issues it had. Dont buy it simple as that.

Nov 15, 2021Unfinished game.
Got a refund. Sad excuse for a battlefield game. Too much RNG. Bullets don’t hit what you aim at it’s up to RNG. No chat. No scoreboard. Specialist are awful. Weapon selection is awful. Awful awful overhyped game. -

Nov 15, 2021I've been a bf fan since bad company 1. This has to be the most disappointing launch to date. Just stopped out with no polish. Not worth it. Come back in a year when they might have fixed this mess.

Nov 15, 2021No proper scoreboard and forcing me to see the most ambiguous player highlights at the end of a match (most assisted kills as a passenger? most hipfire kiils?? who cares about that stuff???) Then you got an always on profanity filter on chat whilst your "specialists" scream and swear every 2 seconds on the battlefield. Oh and you wanna play with more than 3 friends? Tough luck!
-
Nov 15, 2021Unfsinished / Unpolishhed / Lack of content / Servers rubish / no hit rregistraion / 60fps with high end reeg!

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.
