    Core game play is insanely fun. Needs a few performance patches and is on track to be one of the best entry in the series. Maps are huge and the 128 players lends itself for a fun chaos. Definitely get the vibes of BF4

    I’m not a racist, not a sexist, but why the agenda makes me so PASSED ... why the characters even in GENDERFIELD were so much BETTER? THEY WERE BETTER!

    The only normal mode is PORTAL mode with maps that are more than 10 years old !, everything with a balance is much better, but buying "THIS", for the sake of only the portal ... REDUCED ... I would not! and what about OPTIMIZATION? where are the bad words ON WAR? where is the leaderboard? WHERE IS THAT SOMETHING FOR THE MAIN BUYER?

    Classes suck, it would be better if you just sell skins like in the fifth part! Which I played a lot, even though ... I didn't like it! just take what you have and make 2042 .... but no!    … Expand

    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.

    Despite 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.

    Not as terrible as many are saying, it has a rocky launch just like every other Battlefield game since 1942. The audio is terrible but DICE will likely fix that, FPS performance is inconsistent between maps, it's terrible on Kaleidoscope but not bad on others.

    Good points are that it's easy to kill players, the controls are smooth and flexible, wide weapon and gear customization,    Not as terrible as many are saying, it has a rocky launch just like every other Battlefield game since 1942.

    Good points are that it's easy to kill players, the controls are smooth and flexible, wide weapon and gear customization, beautiful graphics.

    Bad stuff are: menus and we talked about this with BF1 and BFV, cheaters running amuck right now, game sometimes won't launch, terrible muffled and quiet audio (was fine in beta), some maps are TOO big and too hard on graphics performance, some keybinds are hardcoded to certain keys if you're left handed or like to use different keys, FOV configuration takes some figuring out.

    If you're on the fence, try it through Steam and refund it if you don't like it, or wait a few months for fixes and price drop.    … Expand

    Game is trash, worse BF ever and most likely lowest quality to budget ratio game of the past 10 years.

    Full of bugs, lack of content, quality is low and optimization is horrendous... Good luck playing it without a 3080.

    Shame on EA and Dice on doing something so bad.

    Finally a battlefield worth playing again. After several years they’re finally heading in the right direction again. Besides the main game, battlefield portal is amazing. It brings back some good old memories. Defiantly having fun with the boys and girls again. The one thing I really miss is content, especially from a game that was so long in development.

    Since the most recent update I’ve noticed that this game has definitely improved. The new map is fun and is well designed, My game doesn’t crash anymore, I haven’t seen any glitches since launch, and the new weapons are a nice edition. I see potential in this game and maybe if the next season really pushes some content out then this game can start getting better reviews.

Reddit babies can't even begin to form constructive criticism it's honestly quite sad.

    Anyways, the actual game has some highs and some lows. The fundamental gameplay is very fun and screams Battlefield with big moments and chaotic warfare. The maps are big but as long as you actually use the tools at your disposal action is not hard to find. I love the verticality of some of the maps and they are all athestically pleasing. While I thought specialists would ruin the game they might actually be some of the best additions. In terms of abilities they are a mixed bag with some feeling out of place (wall hacks) and others feeling pretty useless but at the same time I've never had the freedom of flying or grappling around the map to get a positional advantage or planting makeshift cover for my squad. It really is fun and only those who refuse to accept change disagree here. But hey, if you don't like a certain aspect of the main MP you don't have to care, Portal solves all your issues. While I think it would benefit from paid hosted servers like older games and I hope that is added, it really does have everything you could ask for. Tons of maps, tons of guns, tons of options. The battle royale ish game mode is OK too. Now on to the negatives, as you can see this is a 6/10 which is just slightly above average so clearly there are issues. Performance is not great, this just needs to be better there is nothing else to say. There is a laundry list of small b7t noticeable features hat have been removed too. Full scoreboard? All chat? Squad changing? There is a whole lot more where that came from and it really does impact the overall experience when you expect a feature that isn't there. Next up is the fact that the base game only has 22 guns, not a whole lot when compared to past entries. With that said, the guns are at least varied and perform in their own niche with lots of attachment options. I guess it beats having 5 guns that do the same thing. Its clear portal is where the other guns went. People also seem to have a problem with the general gunplay. Personally I agree to an extent but not NEARLY as much as some are making it out to be. There is an accuracy penalty for moving and in some situations is extremely frustrating but for the most part is avoidable with smart play and good aim. I won't carry on this list forever but another issue stems from the lack of a class system. Well sort of. There are classes in the game and each specialist is a part of one of those classes but you are allowed to take whichever equipment you want. It means everyone can run around with a rocket launcher (and they do) and you never know who has what. It makes some equipment almost unseen such as ammo or health packs and generally contributes to less overall teamwork on a team wide level. No longer are there dedicated healers and revivers, but instead everyone can revive, which sort makes it so that less people take that job seriously. On the other hand it let's you run whichever gun you want which isn't a bad thing considering the lack of them.

    Overall, this game has amazing potential and I really think it can get there with support. We know more guns, more specialist and more maps will come for free. There is an nvidia driver releasing on the 19th which should help performance. I imagine a lot of bugs will be fixed by then too. We all know what AAA games are like now. Release first and fix later. And yet, I keep playing because well, it's just fun. Should you accept this is the way it is and buy it anyway? That's your call, I wouldn't blame you for not supporting this practice, especially not the early access overpriced gold edition. Give the trial on EAplay/gamepass a try with some friends and have an open mind. You might be surprised how enjoyable it is despite the issues.    … Expand

    Since all the post launch improvements that game has gotten significantly better. If the developers continue to fix problems and make improvements at this rate, we may have a great game on our hands. In its current state the game is fun, but not at all perfect. The game at this point is definitely worth looking at.

    Fantastic game for having fun. I was playing hundreds of hours in 3rd and 4th BF and was missing modern war very much. And this game is fun!
    It just needs a bit more polishing. Still, there are many bugs (I think it is a feature of the series), and some tweaks must be done to UI.
    Overall even in this state, I had a lot of fun.

У игры огромный потенциал, который не надо потерять, а он еще далеко не потерян, все в руках новой студии. Надеюсь, что EA не спустит проект , а допилит его, несмотря на огромную волну негодования. Вспомните тот же NoMan Sky, игру поносили на старте так, как не снится Баттлфилд 2042, но однако , несмотря ни на что, ее доделали. Следуйте этому примеру.… Expand

Ive ran into few bugs, biggest one for me was not being able to revive my downed teamate for whatever reason. All out warfare and hazard zone are great in my opinion. I do feel some of the maps are too huge in scale, requiring you to travel very large distances to find the action. Yet, something about the game feels off to me. The destructible enviroments are very lackluster, i mean my jet literally bounced off a skyscraper but when i run into a light pole it blows up. The reactive weather disasters are fine. Really wish they caused more carnage especially with buildings and cars. The bullet spread is abysmal sometimes, especially with AR's. Im not personally bothered by the "lack" of weapons, imo you dont need fifty guns cause they all end up feeling the same to me. The specialist system is ok. I feel like it would flow better with traditional classes at certain points, but it honestly really isnt that huge for me. I am just glad i am having fun, and this game is in no way a 0 out of 10. There was genuine effort put into this game, and I still am having the classic "only in battlefield" moments especially when im playing with my freinds. Its just fun to do dumb **** in battlefield.

    I actually changed my score from 1 to 9 because in the beginning was a tough start for DICE and EA but it seems like many changes were made after millions of updates and the game actually became more like than ugly.
    I think DICE and EA decide to go the right way with battle passes and seasons but for sure many things they need to accomplish for future success.

    Really like it. Performance is good with a 1080 ti on medium. Better Scoreboards would be nice and here and there is some work to do but overall I'm happy with it. Would rate it a 8 but gave it a 10 to counter all those kid reviews counting fps, cpu util and other bs.

    I don't get all the hate from people who can't stand a single change from previous titles. This game is ton of fun, visualy it can be very impressive as well. There is some annoying bugs here and there and the optimisation needs to be worked on, but really nothing terrible as some people would like to make it seems.

    I've played for 70 hours already and I'm not going to stop. I made love to battlefield i opened with battlefield 3. Thousands of people are trying to convince millions not to play. Think about it. Bad comments are left by one, and those who liked the game do not even know that something is wrong with it.

    In my opinion, people are definitely exaggerating how bad this game is. Sure, it has it's issues, but I really don't think issues like lackluster performance, no chat, and no scoreboard merit all the 0s I've been seeing. I wouldn't be surprised if people are just review bombing at this point, even those who've never even played the game and just want to jump on the bandwagon of hate.

I wouldn't be surprised if people are just review bombing at this point, even those who've never even played the game and just want to jump on the bandwagon of hate. First of all, the specialists aren't all that bad. I know the class system is miles better, but some of the specialist abilities can lead to some pretty awesome moments and plays. Also, a specialist system will likely lead to more content being released over time, which will keep the player base more engaged.
    Second, the environments are actually decently destructible, it's just the maps people have been playing on don't have much to offer in terms of buildings and things like that. I've also seen a lot of people complaining about the lack of chat, but really, not many people talk to randoms in battlefield games, or at least that what I've noticed, and when you want to talk with your friends, just use something else like discord. The sound quality will likely better anyway. However, there are definitely
    some pretty glaring that are pretty impossible to ignore. The first is weapon variety. Only about 23 guns in the main game is pretty pathetic. I know most of the guns are in portal but I would have gladly waited another half year to at least have more than 4 ARs to choose from. Also, the servers suck pretty hard and the lack of scoreboard really annoys me. But overall, I think people are seriously over-hating a game that is actually really fun at it's core.    … Expand

This game however has a small annoying flaw. The game design of the game seemed very attractive to me and in my opinion it is a ver or too bad there wasn't a campaign that would have been spectacular.

I'll start with the one I feel the most indifferent with. (Just a FYI, I will not be mentioning glitches as EVERY battlefield title on release had plenty of problems, this is not a BF 2042 specific problem).


    Gun play. In comparison to BF3, BF4, and BF1 the TTK is relatively similar yet different. With the lack of weapons you rarely get killed with anything other than the starting rifle as it works great in all situations. It's not like the other weapons are not good either, they just lack universal play. Map design. The maps lack vertically, which I would argue is what made games like BF4 special. The maps are all large with little exception making chaotic close quarter battles non-existentent. Graphics. I'm playing on PC with a 3070 and i9 11700k so it would be unfair to call the graphics good without mentioning this. Content. This easily spooks me the most. Alot of customization and content seems to be missing which could make this another No Man's Sky. Simple stuff such as the leaderboard is missing which is a literal core game feature. As mentioned before the gun category is lacking extremely. I can forgive this if every weapon is viable but that will have to wait until I unlock them all. Gun customization feels alright, no complaints. Thats raps up my negative thoughts on the game, here are some pros that I believe make it a 5-6 out of 10

    The new Portal mode is extremely fun. It's a shame they spent so much time adding all those weapons to side gamemodes and not the main game. Custom games is... custom games with little change. The map disasters are all fairly cool. I do wish they added more man made disasters instead of weather based disasters. I would love to see radiation, explosive, or fire change the objectives. Map design. Although the maps are mostly flat with no major vertical titles they are still designed fairly well. Feel free to disagree. Specialist. People hate the idea of Specialist yet complain when people don't play medic or anything else for that matter. Specialist allow players to "multi-class" and better support teams with bonuses or abilities. I dont mind it because they don't provide stupidly overpowered bonuses that can't be nerfed or changed. Once again, feel free to disagree. The vehicles are hit or miss. Maybe it's just me but tanks feel like they have ungodly amounts of armour compared to BF1/BF4. The hit boxes are TERRIBLE, rockets will hit yet not deal damage nor points. The crew positions are cool but not practical. In summery this is the average live service game from the new Era of "release then fix" games. The game is fun, but lacks personality and content.

    - Сервера Компьютеров + Консоли = ад для Компьютера. Автоматическая коррекция попадания это легальное читерство. Настолько реалистичное управление снайперской винтовки у Компьютера: вы НЕ попадете в цель.

Been playing BF since BF3, and I was hoping BF2042 would be similar in its creative direction, and bring back the nostalgia from the good old days. I couldn't have been more wrong. Instead of listening to the community, who pretty much all wanted a bf3 style game, EA went the "screw you we will do what we want" route and now everyone is looking at them the same way they did when Bfv came out. Imagine BF4 had a child with Titanfall and CoD MW2019 and thats BF2042. It is so obvious to me that EA and DICE have shifted their focus to money and marketing rather than the game itself. Cosmetic skins, specialists, a very similar movement systen to CoD, it doesnt feel like BF at all. Don't waste your money until EA and DICE sort this **** game out. Did I mention it runs like ass on anything reasonably priced?

    It’s a bit laggy and buggy in early access but the gameplay is very fun, the weapons, specialists, vehicles, and gadgets allow for so many play styles and you get that sandbox feel when playing, which is what battlefield is all about.

    Годная игра,даже на старте,за 10 часов в игре видел пару незначительных багов и один критический,ребята проваливались в текстуры и не могли реснуться,но это поправимо. Не слушайте нытиков,что игра не оптимизирована, на моей 1660 и ryzen 5 1600 стабильные 60 фпс на высоких. Соглашусь с тем,что карты в режиме 2042 огромные, вертолеты имба, но такая игра точно не заслуживает 2.6 рейтинга.Годная игра,даже на старте,за 10 часов в игре видел пару незначительных багов и один критический,ребята проваливались в текстуры и не могли реснуться,но это поправимо.

    This game is so much FUN, and is a great new take on the battlefield experience. From what I can tell, the people who have given the game a chance love it. People wont like changes in a franchise, but once people get used to it the game will be beloved in the community, especially after some much needed bug fixed. Overall a really fun game that just needs a bit more content and bug fixes!

    It's a very fun game. I've played every Battlefield since Bad Company, and I can say that, after a few bug fixes and content additions, this will be one of the best entries to date.

    If you're put off by the audience score, it's mostly due to review bombing, likely from the BF2042 subreddit, where negative sentiment has been running rampant and clouded people's ability to objectively critique this game. They will say that this game is a disappointment to Battlefield veterans, but I can say that as a long time player, I have not found that to be true. I usually don't write reviews, but I felt the need to write this to add balance to the audience score so people don't miss out on what I believe is a fun experience, due to being put off by the review bombing.    … Expand

    i like the game hazard zone is OK and the 2 other modes are very fun for me. There are definitely bugs and performance issues though they haven't impacted my fun that much but most of the bugs i come across are funny and don't break my game i don't get why people say there's no destruction because there definitely is. The specialists aren't even that bad to be honest i prefer classes buti like the game hazard zone is OK and the 2 other modes are very fun for me.

Only thing i despise is that there is bloom in an FPS hopefully its not here when it fully launches because it sucks.… 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.
