Nov 14, 2021Don’t really know where to start. Everyone’s already said most of it. On console the aiming controls feel way off, the scaling of the game makes every one seem small and far away. Flight controls are clunky and slow. Guns and attachment variety leaves much to be desired.

Nov 14, 2021Too many bugs and a few missing features. I still dont understand the negative reviews, bc the gameplay itself is a blast

Nov 14, 2021Does this game have issues? Yes. I’d like to see a normal scoreboard and I’m not a fan of the blooming I’m seeing with the guns at longer ranges. But, am I having a blast? Also yes. This game is tons of fun. The way I see it, they fix these issues (and others) and we will have a truly awesome game on our hands.

Nov 14, 2021Wow this game sucks. I meet the recommened specs and still have 40fps, with the game stuttering every 10 seconds.
It also doesn‘t feel like a real war. It glorifies violence. War in a collapsing world is portrayed as something cool.
Refunded, might buy again in a sale in a few months. In it‘s current state it is just not worth it -
Nov 14, 2021Dreadful buggy mess. Probably be great in 12 months but right now it's embarrassingly bad.

Nov 14, 2021A massive disservice to the Battlefield franchise that was focused on cooperation. Certain new elements are cool and noteworthy, but as others on the internet have said, this reeks of a scrapped battle royale game.

Nov 14, 2021BF3 remains the last good BF release. Since its part of the Portal mode, its also the best part of this game, together with Bad Company 2, but the bad hit detection and overall technical state even destroy this experience. And not only is this a buggy mess, also the design choices are really bad. Specialist destroy the classic BF gameplay. DON'T BUY IT.

Nov 14, 2021Honestly, game is still in beta. Should have never been released in this state.... Typical EA

Nov 14, 2021The game is really fun, I played almost 15 hours in the first weekend between pc and Xbox SX, it needs some fixes but it will be a solid multiplayer. The potential is big
-
Nov 14, 2021The game is terrible. Refunded after 1 hour of gameplay. This is nothing not a Battlefield game, it's Warzone/Apex/Fortnite clone. The game was clearly meant to be a Battle Royale and they changed those plans last minute.

Nov 14, 2021So sad that my most loved shooter as been released in suck an unplayable state.
Performance is so bad, nothing to grind for. This is not my Battlefield. -

Nov 14, 2021They should of remastered battlefield 3 or 4 and just skip this garbage. Thats it.. needs so much more improvements
-
Nov 14, 2021Unplayable bugs, I’ve seen alpha games made by indie companies with better optimization, weapon balancing and less bugs. The only people that are saying it’s a good game in its current state are ones desperate for a good shooter. Worst optimized battlefield game to date my 3 year old CPU is bottlenecking on the lowest settings.

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.
