Nov 18, 2021I have played Battlefield games since the original 1942 twenty years ago. This is hands down the worst game of them all. Its shockingly bad. It's so far removed from the last few games. There's no fluidity in movement, the maps are just a marathon simulator. The Ttk is terrible. I am glad I just took a punt on EA Pro to try it for X14. 99simulator,

Nov 25, 2021Absolute garbage game. Bugged, no content, terrible and lifeless maps, no classes, no scoreboard, no servers, no stats, crappy "specialists" that are only there to milk people when they release P2W specialists.
Here is a list of everything removed from this game compared to previous editions:
**** -
Nov 25, 2021Played the beta, and trial….
Anyone that had any hand in making this abomination should take a serious break and do some soul searching. Complete joke of a game. Nothing like battlefield. Nothing like a Triple A game. Just plain irresponsible. Shame on you DICE and EA. First time I didn’t purchase a battlefield game since buying ebery single one since 1942. -
Nov 25, 2021BAD of bad battlefield in the world. Very big maps, bad weapon, bad sound, bad ping. Very, Very BAD.
-
Nov 25, 2021Dude, it's **** sucks. Trust me. Not lying. Just crap. **** the DICE. **** the EA. Every single time we receive pieces of **** **** from this company. For what?
-
Nov 25, 2021lixo, jogo incompleto, sem classes, sem armas, sem mapas, todo bugado, a full price,
empresa mercenaria, cobra full price por um jogo incompleto. -
Nov 25, 2021Worst performance issues i’ve ever seen in a game, game feels empty and boring
-
Nov 25, 2021no mill-sim characters
gun play is awful
aim on vehicles is terrible
no balanse vehicles/aircraft
no fun -
Nov 25, 2021The game is defective, I hope that these gaps will be filled ... I will not write about the shortcomings ... others have already done it for me ... And the rating is so high because the game has great potential.

Nov 25, 2021BUGFIELD 20-42 FPS, disappointment of year, piece of sh1t. Terrible optimization, terrible bugs, worst part of the series

Nov 25, 2021So many bugs, glitches and ridiculous objective spots! Load in the game many times without your weapon loadouts. Have to retry many times.
-
Nov 25, 2021Igor link almost say whole information about it. Game is a trash((((((( it bad at every aspect
-
Nov 25, 2021worst BF ever..Good features were removed..Maps are shallow, no tactics possible..Its just meat grinder for 60 dollars with even bad gunplay (bloom)....see you in BF4..
-
Nov 25, 2021This is nothing but a **** money grab. EA IS OUT OF THEIR DAMN MIND. THEY RUINED THE KEY MECHANIC OF CLASSES TO SELL **** SKINS. TEAM PLAY IS DEAD . Battelfield 2042 is pathetic. Maps are disgusting 0 cover . They litteraly look like the flat world from Minecraft.

Nov 24, 2021when will developers and publishers stop considering consumers as "wallets" or "vegetables"? how can you produce such a raw and bug-ridden product? the quality of all assets is at a terrible quality. stop releasing this! we want high-quality products for such money!
-
Nov 24, 2021Ow **** you DICE, I want to buy this **** on my 1050ti, but thank you for open beta, battlefield gave me exellent experience with 10 frames.

Nov 24, 2021This has nothing to do with Battlefield.
No scoreboards.
No classes.
No destruction.
No servers.
No stats.
No chat.
The weapons omg. There are literally only 4 ARs. Wtf is this?
It tries to be a mix of Warzone, Fortnite, R6 Siege, Apex and so on.
The cringe after game lines.
This is an unfinished, unpolished and broken game.
Do not buy this until everything is fixed! -
Nov 24, 2021id rather play battlefield hardline than this hot garbage of a game. cant move without getting shot form a million angles id rather slam my balls in a toaster. worst excuse for a game ever
-
Nov 24, 2021Omg no story anymore, only online
Dont buy this worst game ever from DICE ! -
Nov 24, 2021Isso não é Battlefield!
Sem placares.
Sem aulas.
Sem destruição.
Sem servidores.
Sem estatísticas.
Nenhum bate-papo.
As armas, Meu deus!.
Existem literalmente apenas 4 ARs. Wtf é isso? -
Nov 24, 2021Theres some work to be done but im having a blast with the game. Hiding the scoreboard for snowflakes was also a very bad choice in my opinion.
-
Nov 24, 2021Lack of content, no voice chat, unfinished game.
There are only 22 guns in the game
Dont buy yet -
Nov 24, 2021I couldn't even play the game because EA cannot fix the loading persistent data issue. I'm not even surprised at this point.
-
Nov 24, 2021I give a rating of 10...
A game despite the mistakes, but I don't forget the fun and the good feeling inside the game -
Nov 24, 2021
-
Nov 24, 2021Absolument aucun fun, j'ai joué a beaucoup d'autres BF mais la . Se faire fumer a 500m par des mec en Pp29 , marcher 5 minutes pour atteindre un objectif n'est pas fun. Ce jeu n'est pas fun

Nov 24, 2021So the technical support guy says this,
"We do not have any known issues reported regarding the game crashing."
No word of a lie.... except from EA.... -
Nov 24, 2021This is everything battlefield is NOT about, how hard is it to have a decent BF game. should've just copy and pasted BF4.

Nov 24, 2021Jesus Christ, how the hell did they let this pile of crap out the door.
Muffled sound, clunky movement, poorly optimised, awful front end, just a freaking mess imo.

Nov 24, 2021All they needed to do was take battlefield 5, reskin to make it modern and BOOM done! They actively spent more time to remove content rather than add content.
-
Nov 24, 2021A cada ano que passa a EA/ seus estudios provam que nao querem mais divertir seus jogadores (e lembrando q somos alem de jogadores primeiramente clientes e temos que reclamar de produtos mau feitos) eles só querem ruhsar os jogos e ganhar dinheiro rapidamente em cima desses jogos inacabados!
-
Nov 24, 2021Horrible game. Nothing like older battlefield games. So disappointed. It’s so buggy, it’s almost unplayable. The specialist system ruins it all.
-
Nov 24, 2021No single player campaign and a buggy mess.
This game looks great, the trailer got me hyped but jumping into it, I felt extremely let down. To me, it lost all the fun that Battlefield was and tried to hard to be the next "viral / trending" online shooter.
Very disappointed. -
Nov 24, 2021
-
Nov 24, 2021Worst launch I have ever seen. Game is literally incomplete, buildings with no collision, a forth of the week-long bf4 had bugged vehicles, weapons that just doesn't work, this is literally ridiculous
-
Nov 24, 2021After bf4 the games went downhill, removing features. Maps are too large, and only thing that is good is the portal mode with just copy pasted old content that has stuff removed. So there is no point playing this instead of the old beter games. Seems this is a game they didnt want to hurt peoples feelings, and it turns out everyone hated it.
-
Nov 24, 2021A real shame for which they demand too large a sum. There is nothing interesting, except for the hover on skyscrapers, just as tired of pumping for the sake of body kits

Nov 24, 2021I don't recommend Battlefield 2042 at all (at least not yet). This is a broken mess that's full of bugs and glitches and lacks tons of features that make it look like a Battlefield game. It absolutely needed much more time in the oven and shouldn't have been released yet.

Nov 24, 2021Game released only for Yotuber who wins RTX 3090 for free.
Happy to see EA sinking.
After Jeff Grubb announced the postponement of the release of BF2042 to 2022, EA shares fell by 7%. In a desperation to recapture the shares, it marked the pre-mature launch of 2042. Result. A TRASH!
Wait for more games from EA, these days it's just going to be a disappointment. -

Nov 24, 2021Caro pra poha pra entregar pouco, não tem modo campanha, o multiplayer tá todo defeituoso enfim, tá um lixo completo, daqui a 2-3 anos eu pego de graça com a Amazon Prime
-
Nov 24, 2021Didn't like BF1 and BFV, this is the Battlefield I remember with titles like 4. Will need a couple months of patching but the games off to a great start.

Nov 23, 2021Mal optimisé, pas équilibré, véhicules trop présent, on dirait plus un gameplay COD que BF
-
Nov 23, 2021It’s hard not to be disappointed with this 2042 offering. You know when the devs said this is a game to “celebrate Battlefield”? They’ve stripped away some of the most fundamental elements of the series and added tornados and Wingsuits to make up for it. It’s Marketing 101
-
Nov 23, 2021Worst game in the series. Call of duty bad clone. And xbox version have lags. PC crossplay does not turn off.
You could improve battlefield 5. -
Nov 23, 2021This game sucks. I'm done with the Battlefield franchise for good. I'm never coming back. I got my refund and it's done. I hate you ea, I hate you dice. I'm finished. I'll never buy another Battlefield game again. You should quit while your ahead. I can't take anymore of your ****
-
Nov 23, 2021Battlefield Chernobyl should've been the name of the game, this game has nothing that makes it feel like a Battlefield, simply nothing.
-
Nov 23, 2021They dropped an unfinished, not optimized game And used the "pandemic" as an excuse. paid 90 euros to not play the game for 2 days before the Main release.
-
Nov 23, 2021
-
Nov 23, 2021it is beta for 70$. balance is **** optimization is dead, net code is dead, LOOOTS of bugs and some of them are softlocks. Maps are huge, so conquest is just boring to play. There is ADS Bloom in this game aka the worst idea possible to kill the fun part of the game - shooting. DO NOT BUT IT! It is still unfinished!!!
-
Nov 23, 2021Constant connection issues, can rarely get into a game and when I can the maps are pretty bad, very poorly balanced map design that feels more like a game made 20 years ago rather than a top tier title in 2021. I would not recommend this game for at least another 6 months when hopefully these issues have been fixed.
-
Nov 23, 2021**** of a game.Just stop it just stop buying call of duty and bf.Time to stop.Y fking fanboys still buying this horse piss thats company like EA and activision getting away with this kind of **** Stop it play some good games there are so many good games stop it.NO STOP stfu and stop watching streamers have a life then go play some good games there are so many.
-
Nov 23, 2021Come on more or less Specialist Fewer bugs will be fixed in month, two but I can't understand that there is no HARDCORE mode. Many people who play HARDCORE expected more from this game same like Massive Destruction they promised us but there is none! Same no Scoreboards,Chat,Stats,Server, and the first no HARDCORE mode!!!!!!!!
-
Nov 23, 2021Pratiquement impossible de jouer tellement que c'est mal optimiser... Selon l'heure de la journée, je me fais éjecter des serveurs, ou alors j'ai un fps de moule asthmatique, ou le jeu baisse ma résolution...
J'ai pourtant un PC raisonnable:
Proc: Intel I710700k
CM: Z490 Pro Gaming
Mémoire : 32 GO 3200 Mhz
CG: GTX 1660 TI -

Nov 23, 2021+Runs well on higher end system (ssd, 5600x,3070ti)
+When all is well the all out war mode can be spectacular
-Sadly the game is full of bugs atm (im writing this on launch week)
Hopefully dice will improve as time goes on but having no scoreboard is frustrating me atm! -
Nov 23, 2021Game is unbalanced. Everyone run with one weapon. A lot of bugs. I feel like playing beta not full game. Maybe in few months it will be better for now it's just a mess.

Nov 23, 2021O jogo é definitivamente um teste, está cheio de bugs e o maior problema de todos, é que não consegue usar todo o desempenho de nossas placas de vídeo, nos entregando baixíssimas taxas de quadros. Este jogo não deveria ter sido lançado agora e muito menos pelo valor de 60 dólares!
-
Nov 23, 2021Worst battlefield! Never place pre-order of EA games, or they will make similar games all the time!!!
-
Nov 23, 2021This game does not deserve to live under the Battlefield umbrella..
Cringe operators and 0 feel, I would be happier if they closed it down for 6 months and made another game out of this without this **** **** they have covered the game in. -
Nov 23, 2021No scoreboard,
No classes,
No destruction,
Few servers,
Portal cheated stats,
Almost no weapons
That game would be actually good, if it was called something else. -
Nov 23, 2021fui jogar a versao trial no gamepass pc, e ta todo bugado, mal otimizado.
O game nao tem proposta alguma.
Superou o Hardline em ruindade. -

Nov 23, 2021Это больше не BATTLEFIELD , это прикольный шутер за 3.5к, или 5к, ну или же 7к ДЛЯ PC, которое того не стоит.
-
Nov 23, 2021Broken mess and I couldn’t refund. They charged $100 for an extra beta essentially.

Nov 23, 2021Super fun game. It is missing some stuff from the old battlefields but the core game is solid. The people complaining were just wanting a remaster.

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.
