    EA Games - challenge everything... Sometimes I feel like this company has the Midas touch, but rather than turn every company into gold they ruin them

    To be honest, it's not as bad as some people make it out to be. I've played around 30 hours, mostly with friends on Portal and with Bots, but I've had a fun time overall and feel like I've gotten my money worth so to speak.

I've played around 30 hours, mostly with friends on Portal and with Bots, but I've had a fun time overall and feel like I've gotten my money worth so to speak. I do feel like it launched early, and I've experienced the same bugs and crashes everyone else has, but the game is playable and has enough content to at least be a 4-6/10. Again, I know it's not perfect. Here's hoping they support the game instead of dropping it from the initial release stink.

    Update November 2022: The game is in a much better place now. I've easily put over 100 hours into the game since launch and believe 2042 is closer to what it should have been at launch. They've added tons of new items in game, new maps, season passes, new operatives, weapons, equipment, and rebalanced the classes for a more authentic Battlefield feeling. I'd highly recommend giving the game another go.

    Edit to the edit: 330 hours of gameplay and it's by far one of my favorites. Pick it up for $20 and enjoy a great game.

    It was really bad at the start due to lots of bugs and all but eventually the game was stable and I ended up enjoying the game very much I don't think a lot of people were patient enough to wait for the game to be fixed but now it's really good

    I created this account just to give 2042 a zero. Dice is the laughing stock of the industry and 2042 was born from their obese employees playing too much warzone. I bought this game day 1 and 2 years later I am still waiting for my refund, the game is fundamentally BROKEN with zero redeeming qualities. Please do not ever buy another EA or DICE product again.

    Yes, compared to ALL other Battlefields, 2042 is the worst Battlefield in history!
    Even in 2023 it feels like a beta.
    I will never buy a Battlefield game again in my life unless they manage to release a decent Battlefield twice in a row.

But the core mechanics, graphics and sound are top notch. I really like that this game runs on mid-rane PCs and still looks amazing. I'm fortunate and can play in 4K on ultra. Oh man, what a treat. It looks so much better, than previous BF titles. Another great thing is Portal mode, where you can set virtual servers (kinda like those paid ones before, but for free). You can choose maps (also many classical ones - fully redone), different modes and basically all variables. It's really great to play true hardcore mode once again. And EAC anti-cheat is working!

    After a year and a half of updates, I can say that the game, while somewhat lacking in content, is playable and has its moments. However, being playable is not worth $60, especially since predecessors in the series play better.

If i would want running and gunning i would buy something like old CoDs. In battlefield i want battlefield behaviors to be rewarding, not the other way around. Wasted money even on promotion. Had perhaps 2 hours of fun at beginning when i didnt knew what this game rewards and what it punishes.
    Also there is no cooperation rewarded, hence you feel like playing some sort of free for all shooter, but can only hit reds. I coudlnt even get freaking ammuniation from anyone on the team. Everyone is just grinding their grind goal, cause the game otherwise is unpleasant as hell.

    Actually really loving this game. Played it because it came to gamepass and was pleasantly surprised. Good shooting mechanics, interesting character abilities.
    Wish they kept some of the old BF charm but it's not too bad. Hopefully they will learn from their mistakes by the next entry. But even with all its flaws, I still play this every day. It's just fun!

    The decisions going into Battlefield 2042 are completely baffling. The game released in the most broken state imaginable, and now as of 2023 has only just reached the state it should have been in on release, at least.

    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.

    Unpolished, sloppy, buggy, glitchy, uninspiring, lackluster, and disappointing are only a few of the words that come close to accurately

    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.

    This chapter of Battlefield is close to BF3, as for me. There are some interesting levels. Unfortunately, BF2042 has strange moments with balance in some cases (only 1 air fighter for 64 players) and too many prospect spaces. Not the best, but definitely not a bad game.

    It's a Battlefield game, so if you've been playing them since the inception, you already know the routine: (1) spawn (and if you spawn on a squad member, instadeath); (2) wander around aimlessly and get shot in the back; or (3) see an enemy, and they instantly one-shot you from one hundred meters away with a handgun.

That's been my experience with the game since 2002, which is to say it sucks. It's a bad game. It has always been a bad game. I'm now realizing that this game has ALWAYS. BEEN. A. BAD. GAME. But this particular iteration does everything that it possibly can to make sure that YOU - if its suckiness isn't already obvious to you - will absolutely be cognizant of it within just a few minutes of play. How so? Immersion breaking. Every time there's a between match cut-scene, I notice that almost all the character models are women. Now, this would be fine if it were even close to a reflection of reality. But it's not. And to end insult to injury, there's literally a war going on in Europe as I type this where the soldiers that are dying are basically all men. So the people that made this game for some absolutely insane reason made the soldiers nearly all female for reasons that are known only to them. I'm not even close to being a soldier myself, so this doesn't in any way offend me on a personal level. It's just dumb, it's unnecessary, it's weird, it's nonsensical, and it reminds me that I'm playing an already frustrating game made by idiots. Let's hope this is the last edition of this patently absurd video game. Expand

    1. Do not call this Battlefield, because all fundamentals of BF franchise are GONE !!!

    2. Its more over than a year and this game lacks much of a content. Its a sad downgrade.

    3. Vehicles have terrible physics, game as well. HOW THE HELL can a jeep with 1-2tons push away from a road a TANK ???? You know, the **** TANK with weigh over 50 tons and more. Its a joke, here tanks ramming each other jumps around like they are built from a paper. World of tanks, a free games can teach you how to do it, play it and see how bad you are with doing this stuff. Other vehicles are terrible too, it has a feeling like a chinese ripoff game. AND YOU GOT THERE CRITERION signed as a part of a team, they done racing games, were they high or drunk?

    4. Weapons... WTH??? they shoot with almost no spread like some lazy dumb airsoft guns with a terrible sounds too. So few of them, so few options to customize. But at least we can have stupid flashy skins, right? Shove them up yours...

    5. Movement. Soldiers run around like on cocaine fast and chaotic spraying all over everywhere with their airsoft guns. It feels like they are rollerskating. BFV done movement excellent, why you butchered it ????

    6. Wall/cover leaning. Why its not present? Is this counterstrike 1.6 ??? It was there before in BF and now its gone. Stupid decision. And what I hate about this game most is players running through each other !!! Bumping in other players in a game was part of adrenaline when you are trying to run for cover in front of a grenade. Now its not feeling like you are a part of it. Adrenaline atmosphere is GONE !!!

    7. Cringe specialists at least are shutted up after a match. BUT THEY DESTROYED TEAMPLAY !!!! No one bothers to revive, really few others do. And ammo, oh god, NO ONE EVER drops ammo crates. On the other hand snipers on the end of the map are there camping with their ammo crates, because snipers with infinity ammo camping is a great idea. I played BF1 after uninstalling 2042 and it felt like its tactical heaven, everyone was working together.

    8. Sounds. Better than at a beginning. But that Music is something. Why it even exist? Farting in a toilet when I have diarrhea is more pleasing to my ears. Whoever done that **** should be fired.

    9. Graphics. Thats the only thing I can give credit for. Its nice. But somehow, its really demanding on your hardware. Still BF1 is much more better to look at and performs great.

    10. Maps. They got better. But they look dull. That desert map looks unfinished and oh boy, do not let me start about destruction in this game. Shooting into a scyscrapper with a tank leaves nothing. Not even a scratch. That is just lazy. And spawning is still broken. There is a good a chance that in 1 of 3 spawns you will face enemy who will empty his magazine into your face because you are doing magazine check animation. You know like in reality when someone shoots at you in open space. In a TDM I have been 4 time in a row thrown into this situation. Just lovely.

    This game is the worst what this franchise could encounter. Trailer looked like fun, then reality punched majority of fans into a face. Thats your loveletter to battlefield fans. Many of us went back to older titles and your servers in 2042 are mostly empty filled with AI. In a last two decades its now for the first time I will not buy a BF game. Its not worth even 5€. Price you ask is ridiculous. Experienced 40+ hours with gamepass and this day I uninstalled it for good. Everyone who is responsible for this game should punch himself in his face with a rock. Shame on you, you ignorant morons.

    Battlefield 2042 is a game, where every NPC or player is with a such small hit box, you will need a magnifying glass before taking each shot. But good luck doing that fast enough, since you will get sniped faster than you will say "mommy".

    As I can see, newer patches actually did repair the game in some way. The "missions" make more sense than early builds, but maps still suck.

    As I can see, newer patches actually did repair the game in some way. The "missions" make more sense than early builds, but maps still suck. Hourglass is probably the most hated on, I think you can read reviews about that map yourself. What I really do have problems with, is the controls. Walking in Battlefield goes with so much latency, it's unbearable. Even then, it delays key presses not just for the game executable itself, BUT ENTIRE SYSTEM. Sure, might be my laptop, but reading reviews from other about performance issues makes me think this is a bug from EA's side.

    Overall, DICE, EA, you did it. You've hit the rock bottom yet again. I am even proud of you for hitting rock bottom this many times. Killing so much good franchises, just because you value money than experience. Which your advertising happens to be exactly the opposite.

    Кілька карт мають такий недолік як довга дорога до місцяі заруби але я це не часто зустрічав та й транспорт для мене цей недолік нівелював.
    Не розумію чому відразу з оперативниками не залишили систему класів, це здавалось очевидне рішення, схрестити оперативників в стилі COD і стару систему яку фани полюбили ще з попередніх частин. Як на мене оперативники додали ще більше можливостей до цієї пісочниці. Наприклад там є оперативник який може короткочасно визначати противників через навіть через стіни. Я вирішив додати собі в комплект димову гранату, закидати її в приміщення з противниками і відразу отримувати кілька фрагів. Якщо більше пограти то думаю можна ще знайти багато комбінацій і можливостей для вбивств.
    Зброї тут здається менше ніж в попередніх частинах, це для декого буде мінусом. Але мій респект за систему модифікації прямо на полі бою, це прямо дуже крута штука і я надіюсь що вона на довго залишиться в серії.
    Режими мені фактично всі зайшли крім hazard zone. Режим портал б'є по ностальгіїі (і це круто). Побігати на картах з третьої частини було приємно. Хоч я й люблю сінгл але тут його відсутність це напевно скоріше плюс, відразу потрапляєш в зарубу без прелюдій.
    Баги все ще є але по суті це той сaмий battlefield в якому весело ганяти по полю і дивитись та самому брати участь у всьому тому незаскриптованому екшні який створюють самі гравці. Можна брати на знижках.

    But also: if quality over quantity updates are not your style its gonna be a long wait for you, the performance is a bit bad but is much more improved and playable than launch, vehicle balance is a bit rough but is still much more balanced and even than BF4's LAVS and Birds, no all chat, hazard zone is cancelled, portal is filled with hardcore and xp farms only.

I cant walk in this game without getting an aim bot killing everybody and people walking through walls, there are a lot of server issues where if i shoot somebody it doesnt register and the ping can be so high that i get killed without noticing it.

    The gameplay is good i guess but its still not great, the only thing i like about it is that it uses modern gun but it doesnt have any better game play versus all the other battlefields or even just call of duty.

    MICROTRANSACTIONS in this **** pretending to be a game are equal to say "pay or get the **** out" by developer.

    Whole stuff that's possible to unlock without paying is **** ugly. It hurts eyes so much so it's better to play without skin at all. Skins that can be unlocked only for battle points are - of course - really nice (mostly).

    Map design it's some misunderstanding. All maps seem to be projected by random group of summer interns. I have no **** idea what this game actually does in the background but I don't believe that this piece of **** I saw during gameplay should make my GPU and CPU working on 100% almost whole time.

    first of all, I want to say that it is my first big purchase of an online game like this, I'm not gonna lie I was pretty naïve because I saw the trailer and I thought I was going to buy a firkin movie of a game. the trailer did do its job to the fullest, even the gameplay trailer looked awesome, fantastic graphics cool vehicles and more. what can you ask more of an all out war game. thefirst of all, I want to say that it is my first big purchase of an online game like this, I'm not gonna lie I was pretty naïve because I saw the trailer and I thought I was going to buy a firkin movie of a game. the trailer did do its job to the fullest, even the gameplay trailer looked awesome, fantastic graphics cool vehicles and more. what can you ask more of an all out war game. the first few weeks of playing it I loved it, although the majority of people disliked the game which I understand completely because
    the game had numerous bugs and defects that need fixing. I still believed someday it would change for the better, loved the gameplay of vehicles and in general, for like 4 months I really enjoyed the game even when there was only 1000 or less players online. don't get me wrong I didn't think from the beginning it was worth 60 bucks but I was willing to play it anyway(because I couldn't refund). now here comes the part that I really hate, when this "season one" came I was exited because I knew it would bring lots of players back but the changes to the game were absolutely trash. and here are some for example; the bolte, a vehicle that can be unlocked at some point in the game was one of my personal favorite light vehicle. Dice changed its category for the same as the tank heavy vehicles. now, why tf would I use the bolte if i can just use the tank, its way better obviously, it has more health, more destructive power and more gadgets, and as I expected after the update I didn't see one bolte in the battlefield.
    The second reason, Dice reduced the amount of vehicles in each match and that makes the game pointless and really boring. its supposed to be an all out war action game, with tons of destruction, tanks shooting and jest flying by and bombing the area. now its call of duty game in a big boring map with some lame ass cars with little guns and each team of 64! can choose only one aircraft 2 tanks maybe an helicopter (same category that makes it less useable, and each map the amount of vehicles is a little different but still a really small amount).
    and as a result for like 4 games straight I didn't get to be neither in a tank or a helicopter, sometimes there are carriers that the pilot doesn't even shoot from only the passengers can, and some lame LVs .
    The third reason, why the hell did you guys bring down the most fun mode in this game.. the 64v64 breakthrough mode it was what the game was supposed to be. that was the reason I paid for this game!!! now its some boring 32v32 in a small map with one jeep for each team and maybe one tank. and the season map is boring as hell earthier. this game started ok but was trash because of bugs, it started to get better until you **** it up again and now with more bugs and unstable changes to the gameplay. Dice please, you have the resources already, make this game good, just listen to the ones that are actually playing it. add triple the vehicles in each match do more destructive buildings(idc if it means less players)
    From now on I will wait a few weeks to buy a big game incase I don't buy some scum of a game that I can not return.

    What a terrible game. Do not buy this game at full price because it's definitely not worth it. Poor performance and terrible maps. The game just isn't good. Not to mention, after one year, season one finally comes out with a lackluster battle pass and an additional two weapons. After one year, we get two weapons. Really?

    Same old crap with DICE. They make a game with a lot of potential, and it turns into a disaster. The game already feels broken and unfinished, yet DICE and EA have decided to sell it to earn a little cash. This games are the reason FPS are boring,****, and all the same thing over and over again. It feels like Call of Duty and Battlefield are fighting over who makes the worst game. ThisSame old crap with DICE. They make a game with a lot of potential, and it turns into a disaster.

However this doesn't make a good transition with the chaos DICE has left us with. Expand

    laggy servers, unpolished, and unfinished.
    Well, you cant even Choose your Squad, you can just randomly switch between squads that have a slot free.
    Objects like Trees have a bigger Hitbox than the visible object - > You shoot into invisible walls The Hovercraft is completely broken, it even can climb any skyscraper. Reviving Bug, Bugs of any kind, like u cant switch weapons anymore.

    The list would go on, but I've to go to work now and have to deliver working software ;)

    I give 7 stars since I know they will patch it right.
    If not I will reduce to 3 stars.

    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.
  3. 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.
