    This must be the worst battlefield game of the franchise. Although the game has been through 5 seasons, the game still doesn't get any improvement about performance and optimization. I hardly could play this game on my i5 9400f, gtx 1660 super, 16gb ram even on lowest setting because the game isn't stable at all. The highest fps i got is 80 and lowest is 40 with 100% cpu usage and only 70%This must be the worst battlefield game of the franchise.

    Unfinished 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.

    This is easily the worst game in the series. Most of the Battlefield series features have been stripped out of the game, and amazingly most basic FPS features have been stripped out the the game (no scoreboard!?). This is a soulless, empty mobile game designed for micro transactions. Do not buy this! Wait, or at least watch some reviews! No Man's Sky / Cyberpunk at release are about on par.

    What an arrogant impertinence to Release the Game in that Status. Millions of Bugs, Features missing, 5 year old graphics and at least you can not even choose the map you want to Play. If you can refund it. EA and DICE crossed a Red line, shame on you.

    Just want to share my thoughts/problems on BF2042 in a list.

    All weapons have the same attachments, nothing feels unique Many attachments do literally the same as the other ones Only 22 weapons (BF3 had nearly 60 weapons to unlock) Only 7 maps BF had 9 ( or with all DLC 25 maps) UI feels clunky and not intuitive No scoreboard (New anti-cheat lmao, if u can't see a 100 -    Just want to share my thoughts/problems on BF2042 in a list.

    All weapons have the same attachments, nothing feels unique

    Many attachments do literally the same as the other ones

    Only 22 weapons (BF3 had nearly 60 weapons to unlock)

    Only 7 maps BF had 9 ( or with all DLC 25 maps)

    UI feels clunky and not intuitive

    No scoreboard (New anti-cheat lmao, if u can't see a 100 - 0, then there are no cheater)

    Maps have a bad infantry flow structure

    Why classes if everyone can be everything (Everyone can equip medikits, repair boxes, and stuff)

    Operators are sometimes useless ( As example allow the doc to pick up people with the medic gun otherwise they have nothing special compared to someone with medikit)

    "Destruction" is not even really there or even "at the BF5 level"

    Scope bug where different item usages break your scope and you have to switch to iron sight to fix it

    No "Military Ranks" just numbers which feels like a cheap replacement to save work

    To many cutscenes before and after a match.

    Server laggs and rubberbanding

    No visible line between the operators. There should be operators for each site because atm its confusing

    Hit reg is broken and often does not work at all

    Bloom Random Recoil makes most assault rifles unplayable

    Performance, in general, is trash

    DLSS seems not to work

    No option in-game to activate DX12 (you can activate it in the config file)

    Hovercraft ... I don't even know how I should list all stuff that is broken with it

    No voice or global chat

    No server browser

    Let us be in a lobby after a match without re matchmake us

    Fix to join friends that are in around Planes not getting destroyed in most collisions because "noob-friendly" Mines disappear if you die Netcode seems worse than every other battlefield before Attachment unlock requirements follow no reason for stupid high kill counts No team swap No squad creation/management No commander No "Medic is x meters away from you" More normal bikes on the map for a bit of individual transport Allow ingame ui to be transparent in options ( it was possible in beta I think) No joystick support for piloting Only 2 game modes Only 5 XP for heal/revive WTF Dice? No XP for repair as a mechanic? WTF? Revive not possible if someone's head is just 1 cm near some object Breakthrough mode objectives on some maps are not balanced ( I saw never a game going behind specific areas) No damage dealt indicator for vehicles (it was there in alpha/beta) Audio / Footsteps feels really off Breakthrough games sometimes have no end because there is no new zone / the server does not check if the game is done Auto Deploy at start of round... Why? Remove it AA Misses seeming buggy at pathfinding Why do we have no mouse on Hazardzone Char selection? No private/rented servers Gunplay is not Battlefield but feels like f2p arcade shooter No hardcore No resizable minimap No separate Heli & Jet controls Obnoxious voice-overs, operators are incredibly vocal, every time you do an action they say a line. The spotting system is contextual and misses a lot of the time. For example, if you press Q over an enemy tank it doesn't always spot it but places a go-to marker on that area. The team/squad order menu (or whatever it's called) is a pile of garbage. It covers the entire screen, it requires using the mouse to select the options, but not clicking on them for some reason, you have to depress Q. This needs to be redesigned into a friendlier and smaller semi-transparent wheel. Plus, it's not contextual at all and it doesn't seem to have an impact to other players, I requested ammo constantly and nobody even saw my request. On the spawn screen tanks/helis use the same icon, you simply cannot tell if that's a transport or attack heli that you are spawning into. When in the tank, you don't have this little tank outline that tells you where the driver and gunner are looking at. No maps with water and thusly no boats.. despite there being a big ass boat on the loading screen. No squad points for issuing orders or following them No marksman headshot bonus for long-range snipes Cannot tell if there is room to enter a friendly vehicle without trying to get in it. Cannot dive underwater Non-removable profanity filter Grappling Hook is afraid of smoke Bullets are afraid of power lines Vehicle entry and exit animations have been removed ADS required to change weapon fire mode Cannot move while prone and ADS Crossplay issues on Xbox    … Expand

    Battlefield has always been plagued with bad launches. Battlefield 4 caused me to abandon the game for a month after its initial launch, but Battlefield 2042 has problems that are more fundamental than just kinks that can be ironed out with a few patches. There are issues that are obviously design choices, and very cynical ones at that.

    Problems like bad optimisation, a lack of global chat, VOIP, bad server performance, lack of a scoreboard, or even the weapon balance issues (like there currently being only two viable weapon choices out of the entire roster) can be easily addressed. Though given Dice's track record, "easily" equates to several months.

    The biggest problem is that Battlefield 2042 does not feel like a Battlefield game. Dice have always been keen to introduce new elements into the series, but the games have always had a strong core gameplay element which is absent from this game. Its difficult to pin down, but there is definitely something off about Battlefield 2042.

    It could be the reliance on gadgets, the empty and sterile feeling to the maps, the poor sound design (extremely evident when you play the Bad Company 2 modes available on Portal), weak feel of the weapons, or abandoning the class system of previous games; something just doesn't sit right with the game as a whole.

    The specialist system is nothing more than an attempt to grab new players more familiar with the likes of Warzone and a cynical way to monetize the game going forward. While there are specialists that have been teased so far that aren't in the base game that are allegedly locked behind the season passes; I honestly don't think it will end there. Knowing EA's desperation to milk as much money as it can from its customer base, I can foresee specialists and skins that give a distinct tactical advantage being paywalled behind the store. How long until we see the Battlefield 2042 equivalent of the Rose skin from Warzone, that gave players an advantage in dark environments for months until it was addressed? Or how about an specialist with an unbalanced ability like ammo regeneration or an extra gadget slot? This is all hypothetical, but moving away from the existing class system is entirely about monetisation and not about adding to the game from a gameplay perspective.

    The specialist concept also removes the reliance on team play. There are glimmers of hope there where you can kind of see what they were aiming for, ie Rao hacking aerial vehicles so his team mates can lock onto them with impunity, but the reality is that most players will tailor the specialist to give them a solo advantage. There are too many specialists that have been created from the ground up for solo players too. Sundance and Angel are prime examples. What does Sundance bring to the party other than anti-armour grenades? A good Sundance player could use the wingsuit ability to put a spawn beacon in an area not easily accessible to the enemy, but will they when they can just throw anti-armour grenades at will? Angel could easily keep an entire squad alive and well stocked while they move from position to position, but why bother with that when you can just take him to the top of a building with your sniper rifle and medpack, and sit there for the entire round? And could someone please explain the point of Boris to me?

    At the time of writing this, Dice have removed the proximity sensors from the game. This was done in the name of them causing server issues, but the reality is that people were using them for easy XP. Personally, I don't have an issue with them. People may be farming them for experience, but at least in doing so they were contributing to the team. It highlights a bigger problem though, most of the abilities or gadgets in the game revolve around revealing the enemy on the minimap. Obviously this is a valid tactical advantage and a much needed one, but there is no counter to it. And speaking of visibility, in a game that does its best to hamper you visually, whether thats ground clutter, smoke or ECM, would it hurt to have at least one thermal or NVG option?

    Time to wrap this up as typing this is getting too depressing to talk about. If you're a Battlefield fan, avoid this until it goes on sale. Give it at the very least six months. Though I honestly I don't think the fundamental issues will have been addressed. I think these are core changes that are intentional in an attempt to try and bring in a new playerbase.

    EA touted this game as a "love letter to the fans". The reality its more of a breakup letter. Written in crayon. And you had to pay for the postage.    … Expand

    The atmosphere of this game more or less represents a modern take on APEX including Specialists that no true Battlefield fan enjoys. Even IF all the bugs can be fixed (And there's a lot of bugs..) the game will simply be tolerated at best.

    The real battlefield is represented through heart racing gunfights, while enemy tank shells level 2 story structures around you, enemy helicopter blades and gunfire whistle in your direction. While your teammates are screaming for ammo, a medic, and F*CK THERE'S A GRENADE! You are the unknown soldier on the front lines fighting for your life, doing your job to revive, provide ammo, cover fire, and recon the Battlefield.

Error messages, connection problems... ok things like that can happen. We had it in the past... potato servers, too many players? I don't know. And kind of I was prepared for that. Next day - finally we can play... and from that place, for me that game started to be a bigger and bigger disappointment day after day. First £20 for a digital artbook and a skin that you can only use on one character?! But ok, maybe I missed the fact it is for only one character, I would never look at the artbook anyway - that's on me. I wanted to support my favourite title, paid the £100 - let's move on... but the rest! No way the product they delivered is worth any of the money they want for any of the game editions... that game looks just 1/4 finished for me, it's a slap in the face from EA. Lags, you cant revive teammates sometimes, unbalanced, what kind of scoreboard is that? Maps are way too big if you don't want to use vehicles, so you spend minutes to get somewhere only to find out there is already a team of tanks waiting for you. And so much more.... and on top of that - cheaters from day one. I would be more happy to get a remastered BF4 than this :( Before you buy, try the 10h you get free in the pass, just to be sure you like it, I didn't... luckily I was able to get a refund today without any issues.

    It seems with every iteration of battlefield things that did well in the previous battlefields just gets forgotten about or replaced in an amateur and rudimentary way. When you look at how polished BF1 and compare it to 2042, it truly boggles the mind of how far DICE have fallen with their quality and standards.

    BF1 felt atmospheric, the map design beautiful, intense and wonderful flow between objectives and yet we are left with open maps devoid of detail or character, and when you play most of these maps you really cant be bothered to move 500m to the closest objective.

    The specialist system is counter to the essence of what made previous battlefields great, the idea I always believed was that we play as generic soldiers whose only stand out is our readiness in terms of equipment choice, map knowledge, team work and overall skill level. Teamwork is completely gone as you are left wondering what role to play or any role at all.

    gunplay and movement feel like a cheap battlefield knockoff, which is far from the heights of BF4/1, it doesn't feel comfortable to play and often feels very jarring.

    It is also terribly optimized, my system can do 120-210 fps on previous games with no rubber banding or hit register issues and here I have to take the graphics down to low to just get a stable-ish frame rate, in a world of GPU shortages - shouldn't DICE have optimized for many of us who cant get a new high end GPU? Also for essentially a game that feels, looks, behaves worse than previous gen titles, it leaves you wondering where is all this performance going? and what have the devs been doing for the entire dev cycle?

    Most people are saying play portal But we came for BF2042 standard multiplayer, if we wanted to play the previous games - we would just go and play the previous games which btw are still pretty active!

    No scoreboard, no chat, no classes, barely destruction, no teamwork, no style, no swapping squads, no real customization, no server browser. No fun.

    And for those who say come back in 6 months to 1 year? why waste the money now in the hope that DICE and EA fix this hollow experience...    … Expand

I mean real classes, not operator gets perks, and its like pokemon you got collect them all, and they say they got support role. I can rock any weapon and item combo I want like its freaking Call of Duty, there is no classes no class levels.

    This shouldn't even be allowed to call itself a BF series game. I love BF since 1942 I been a support class user, and loved it in every single game. But this, not only is support not a thing, the LMG it lets me use in tutorial against really bad bots, is not available on launch, the weapons are super limited, the enviroment is not destructible.

    This should be a damn p2w game why did I pay top dollar for gold edition only to get a f2p quality game with BF name in the title? I mean I feel so damn ripped off, I knew it would have some **** I may not like, but I expected min class system I coudl even handle that stupid cash grab operator system if there was still classes, real ones with restrictions. But instead its freaking Call of Duty style I can rock any gun I want, with any items, I can go sniper with ammo box, I can go LMG with an "assaults" operator. And the gun selection is tiny, I am use to rocking shotguns and LMGs and now I can do anything which eliminates half the damn strategy of the game. Now I can get killed by a SMG on a freaking support avatar, or sniped by one. Its just infuriating I paid full price for this garbage.    … Expand

    играю с самой первой части в эту франшизу, но после 2042 пришлось даже зарегистрироваться здесь, ребят в полном уныние, от БФ мало что осталось, может быть сейчас они на новых ореинтированы игроков, более молодых, но мне как старперу эта часть не понравилось( впервые после релиза в превые катки не нипуливаю и часа, очень плохо, жду когда сообщество что-нибудь в портале придумает. 2/10играю с самой первой части в эту франшизу, но после 2042 пришлось даже зарегистрироваться здесь, ребят в полном уныние, от БФ мало что осталось, может быть сейчас они на новых ореинтированы игроков, более молодых, но мне как старперу эта часть не понравилось( впервые после релиза в превые катки не нипуливаю и часа, очень плохо, жду когда сообщество что-нибудь в портале придумает. 2/10

    This 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.

    Viel zu große Maps, teilweise läuft man Minuten lang herum ohne einen Gegner zu sehen. Hat man zu Beginn kein Fahrzeug, kann die ersten 3 Eroberungen vergessen.

    Der Zustand die Granate vor dem Wurf "ausrüsten" zu müssen ist katastrophal Die Einführung der Spezialisten ist das dümmste, das man Battlefield antun konnte. einer Klasse einen Schild zu geben um damit 6 Leute im Gang zu schützen    Viel zu große Maps, teilweise läuft man Minuten lang herum ohne einen Gegner zu sehen.

    Die Einführung der Spezialisten ist das dümmste, das man Battlefield antun konnte. einer Klasse einen Schild zu geben um damit 6 Leute im Gang zu schützen damit die alles weg schießen können, ist so lächerlich! bereue es dafür Geld ausgegeben zu haben.    … Expand

    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.

    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.
