Dec 16, 2021Nor the developer nor the publisher is to blame, the idiots that pre-ordered it are solely to blame.
-
Nov 15, 2021An unoptimized piece of **** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Dec 7, 2021Its litterly a zero. Probably the worst game in history (including ET for the atari).
-
Apr 3, 2023Absolutely a disaster and a waste of money. Do not buy this crap game. It's disappointing on ever level. The only good thing I have to say is some of the sound effects are pretty cool.

Nov 15, 2021This is not alpha or beta, it's worse than that, a lot if bug and damn stop with all woke thing. Specialist dont have is place in battlefield and GOD I never see an UI as ugly as BF 2042.
People paid early acces for 60 bucks... welcome to 2021 -
Nov 22, 2021I can't believe this they are changing over full price for this half baked game what a lazy development

Nov 19, 2021The game needs work.
Portal is the only good thing it has.
It is not worth $60/70.
Do not buy now. -
Nov 17, 2021Not my battlefield.
Broken, unfinished and not my battlefield.
This game sucks. Do not buy. -
Nov 22, 2021Well done Dice! 0 of 10 this is your well-deserved mark! Keep going, you're in the right way!
-
Nov 16, 2021Cópia barata de Call of Duty Modern Warfare com Rainbow Six Siege. Todo lagado e bugado. Não parece Battlefield. Joguei 10 minutos e já percebi que não presta. Fã de Battlefield desde o 2, não consigo enxergar isso como algo que preste. Talvez o Portal preste. Nota 0.

Nov 18, 2021No voice chat on launch, rubber banding, graphics glitches, no standard classes, ea trying to emulate other games.
-
Nov 20, 2021Bugged AF
No scoreboards.
No servers.
Voice actor's lines are more appropriate for other games -
Dec 10, 2021When new Battlefield coming out. This game is rubbish. When new Battlefield coming out. This game is rubbish

Dec 4, 2021This game is a piece of sheet. I have never seen such a disgusting attitude to your audience
-
Nov 20, 2021Worst bf experience ever, dice hasn't put out a quality game since battlefield 4
-
Nov 20, 2021This really doesn't feel like a Battlefield game, it feels like a hodgepodge of other games like Warzone, Fortnite and Apex. EA/DICE failed to include scoreboards, player stat profiles, server selections and chat. Also somewhat buggy, granted games at launch and bugs go hand and hand, but not being able to revive other player is a big issue.

Nov 29, 2021Just utter trash. There are so many poor decisions that a 5 year old can comprehend. Check the subreddit r/battlefield2042 you will see the consensus. Only the fanboys really enjoy the game and I'm convinced that's due to the sunk cost fallacy. If you want to try it, get it through xbox game pass. You only get a 10 hour in game time access to 2042 but I doubt you will stick around past 5 hours.
-
Nov 19, 2021Just absolute **** Ugly looking, weirdly bright, absolutely the weirdest aiming technology, and to not be able to crawl and aim the same time. You have to stand still when you aim. And just no fun. This game is just no fun at all. Battlefield 1 and 2 are genius, absolutely amazing games. And now you have made this. This absolutely pile of garbage.
-
Nov 17, 2021yikes yikes yikes
get your refunds now while you can, because this bag of **** ain't getting any better -
Nov 29, 2021Worst battlefield to date.
Just play world war 3 in march its going to be free and its already better than bf2042. As someone who has played every single battlefield apon release I can assure you this is just a warzone clone. -
Nov 19, 2021This game is just EA trying to copy Activision CoD and Apex Legends. They're goal is to get the money that young kids carelessly throw at games. It is absolutely rotten behaviour by EA.

Nov 22, 2021FIX THE GAME IT’S FULL OF BUGS.
This is the worst Battlefield release I have ever played.
Doesn’t even feel Battlefield anymore, no more classes and the maps are horrible. -
Nov 20, 2021You guys have to return to BF 1 or 4 this is an downgrade building this awful game...
-
Nov 15, 2021The animations for this game are terrible. Movement feels clunky. Hazard zone was lazy. Portal was underwhelming especially with the poor implementation of old weapons

-
Nov 21, 2021I hate u dice. .
-
Nov 29, 2021How could such a thing have been done? How could such a thing have been done? Terrible part in every sense. It's impossible to play this piece of code normally. It's a pity for the money spent. I hope those who had a hand in making this game will never do it again.
-
Nov 20, 2021An absolute disgrace one again to the franchise… For the love of Christ do not buy this game!!!

Nov 22, 2021Absolute garbage, no way, it's worst chapter ineed, how almost every 2020-2021 game is unenjoyable donate sh1t?
-
Nov 17, 2021Too many things wrong, map design and specialists being the worst. Doesn't help that performance is terrible.
-
Nov 21, 2021A Battlefield title that doesn't feel at all like battlefield, just another cod with bigger maps and vehicles
pd: 22 guns at launch it's unacceptable -
Nov 20, 2021I cant even analise the game other problems because the game is to buggy... stuterings.. crashes.. bugs and bugs.. and im playing on a high end pc.. ZEROO
-
Nov 17, 2021They pulled out several mechanics that everyone liked.
Generic gun noise.
No points score. No map rotation in standard game mode. Not being able to choose a team. Not being able to close your squad. No server list in Conquest mode.
Honestly, as a fan, I don't understand why DICE/EA insists on making a game that players don't like, becoming ''just another FPS''. -

Nov 19, 2021When did it become normal to launch half game finished…?sick of it
U deserved ur score -
Nov 20, 2021Плохая графика и физика. Нет вибрации по ПС5. Бф1 Бф5 лучше и интереснее, а тут играешь с ботами. За бесплатно даже не хочу играть

-
Nov 17, 2021Just plain and simply not ready to be launched. Want classes back, specialists aren't the answer! Hit box and TTK is awful! Just bad right now...
-
Nov 19, 2021Lacks many staple features of the series such as a scoreboard. Game is a buggy mess and should’ve been delayed 1-2 years to be completed and polished. I hate to imagine what the micro transactions will be.
-
Nov 19, 2021Самая худшая BF в истории, сломано абсолютно все, элементарные вещи из предыдущих частей просто отсутствуют, контента меньше, чем в V части. Да на фоне этой игры, кибербаг 2077 вообще идеален!
-
Nov 17, 2021No 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 19, 2021A total mess. One big, fat, mess. Bugs. No servers. NO SCOREBOARD?! NO CHAT. NO CLASSES. I could go on and on. I can't believe I'm saying this but I would rather play call of Duty Vanguard than this. That's saying alot.

Nov 17, 2021COMPLETE SCAM IN ALL ASPECTS. WOULD HAVE BEEN BEEN MUCH BETTER IF THEY DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING FROM BF4, JUST BROUGHT NEW MAPS/WEAPONS.
-
Nov 20, 2021Disappointing, out of touch, unfinished, flawed and lazy. EA and dice have turned their backs on the franchise in this half baked, soon to be micro transaction laden, mess of a game.
-
Dec 13, 2021Horrível, conseguiram "lançar" um game inacabado e bugado pior que o BF5!
NÃO comprem essa porcaria -
Nov 18, 2021An embarrassment to the Battlefield franchise. I'd list all my problems with the game, but that would take more work then DICE spent on this game.
-
Nov 19, 2021Скучно, банально, неинтересно это всё про 2042. Гейм дизайн невероятный кал.
-
Nov 19, 2021Everything is good, just not fun. This game doesn't give me the motivation to keep playing. I choose to play bf1 or bf4
-
Dec 7, 2021This game has nothing to do with the battlefield I once loved. Playing together with more than 4 people doesn't work. The destruction is a joke compared to previous titles. The UI is one of the worst UI's I've seen in a long time. The operators are something nobody ask for and are only in the game because EA wants to sell some sweet, sweet skins. Don't buy this mess.
-

Nov 20, 2021dont buy it and wait another 6 to 12 month!
so many features are missing, there are so many bugs, there are more and more, even before the official release. even worse than cyberpunk. -
Nov 22, 2021Characters and operators in bf2042 are dumb and ugly !!! in the form of convicts, jailers and laborers. And the future will be **** skins of clowns, vikings and freaks in a mask
-
Nov 27, 2021Literally The Worst Game i have ever played Please DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE YOU MAY END UP COMMITING SUICIDE OR DOING PHYSICAL HARM TO YOURSELF OR OTHERS

Dec 19, 2021Compared to the older BFs: It sucks. As a new, standalone multiplayer "tactic" fps: Sucks also. 2 points. Its a shame.

Nov 21, 2021Worse FPS i ever played. Low performance. Bugs everywhere. Bad map design. Bad gameplay. Missing fetures that even Quake 4 had... the list goes on...
I am now a proud owner of a 100usd 20-42fps digital turd. -

Nov 14, 2021Game is literally unplayable I can't imagine how they messed this game up so bad.
-
Nov 14, 2021I agree with all of these things--
Things we lost in BF2042
Scoreboard
CLASSES
All chat
A server browser for the main modes
KD
A stat page
more than 100fps
Teamswitching
Squad switching that isnt random
Persistent community servers
UI info like da -

Nov 15, 2021The amount of copium people be smoking in unreal. This game is a poor mans battlefield and how poorly opimised it is, is enough reason to give it a low score. Game feels like a step backwards in every way. At least bf5 ran well on launch despite other issues it had. Dont buy it simple as that.

-
Nov 15, 2021It's fun but repetitive. Hardly any content and they removed the competitive side of the game with no scoreboard and everyone gets a participation trophy for doing anything. 2 assists etc. The hero specialist also look bad.

Nov 15, 2021В этой игре всё ужасно!
-Плохие технические характеристики.
-Плохая графика.
-Плохой геймплей.
-Плохая разрушаемость.
- Очень мало оружия.
- Плохой K / D.
- Много читеров.
P.S. Эта игра не имеет ничего общего с Battlefield. -
Nov 15, 2021This game is pure chaos it’s unfinished hot mess that they destroyed everything we love about the series shame on you

Nov 15, 2021O jogo tem tudo pra ser legal, mas esse lançamento, pior que o beta tá péssimo. Você agacha e não consegue levantar, morre e não consegue reposicionar. A mira pode estar em cima do inimigo que o tiro não conta o dano, mapas repetindo várias vezes sem fazer a rotação adequada, bugs insanos.
-
Nov 15, 2021Very disappointed , Sadly I thought it will be better than the beta , u feel like the game is incomplete with some glitches , don't deserve 60 bucks at all , I am battlefield fanboy but this is my opinion
-
Nov 15, 2021Game is bad. Dont waste your money. Maybe in a year come back and see how it's been updated but games so awful. Couldnt imagine how hot to the touch the crack pipe over at EA is to release this. Reg wore than bf4. MW2042 is trash.

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.
