    Are you annoyed with having to work with other people in multiplayer games ?.
    Do you find it annoying when games have a bunch of different weapons that don’t all feel the same ?.
    Is it too much for you when game levels are full of objects and decorations and long for the days when maps were just a big square box with a handful of smaller badly textured boxes. .
    If the answers to all these questions is Yes then this is the game for you.
    At last we finally have a game that feels like someone just downloaded a generic game template from the unreal editor and put it out without all the annoying distractions and design decisions.

    My absolute favorite is the 1942 mody, it is basicly the 1942 remasterd, with all the old mechanics ang gameplay. So if you liked the first Battlefield then go for it, it will bring up some good old memories to the early days of BF.    … Expand

    Battlefield 2042 definitely had one of the worst realeases since the beginning of the pandemic. However yet it is a game that has been developed partly in home-office which all players should perceive.

    Regardless, this does not justify the state of the game right-now. BF2042 has plenty - and I mean many, many: bugs, glitches, game-design mistakes or missing features.

    Regardless, this does not justify the state of the game right-now. BF2042 has plenty - and I mean many, many: bugs, glitches, game-design mistakes or missing features.
    There is no scoreboard, no ability to join your friends if they are in a full party (yes you heard right, you cant join, not even if there is a space in the game, if your friends Squad is full) which results in you being abled to only play with 3 friends, expect you want to play Portal only with them.
    Portal is the next failure Battlefield 2042 has to offer. No weapon progression at all, sometimes really strange and inconsistent XP-rewards, missing features and many bugs (just like in All-Out-Warfare and Hazard Zone) on own Servers to. + i would like to add the note that you CANT create a paid server that stays inifite. Servers are temporarily and only stay as long as there is atleast one player on it. If you suppose to think thats all then let me tell you that there are even bigger issues in this game.
    Hit registartion isn't working as it should; Loadouts (on Vehicles or your own created loadouts) get resetted; They have a problem with ,,bloom" which leads to shots spraying randomly in some directions and not in the direction where your crosshair is placed; Maps feel underdeveloped, empty and unfun to play; ever wanted to run miles on a Map, since there are not many vehicles? Then you should try Hourglass. Running 2 Minutes from point B to A is fun, espically if you die through random helicopters in the mean time. You could say why don't you play infanterist mode then, well... because there is non and thats not the only feature that is missing, everybody thought would be in the game since EA and DICE promised us to give us a Battlefield "like we all know"

    That Hazard-Zone does not come in to short let me discribe this try on a "mini battle royale" liike game mode. "Hazard-Zone" feels like a confusing, short, slaughtery game mode which could have been a competitor to games like "Escape from Tarkov" or "Vigor" (atleast thats what players expected) yet it is a huge let-down and does not make fun at all. Maybe players expected to much...

    To be fair Battlefield 2042 isn't just all bad. Particularly with friends you can have a good, much laughing (even if it is to blame on the bugs most of the times.
    There are parts of the game that make fun and the devs try to solve the problems and give players the promised content. The Day-1 patch series is a great start. Update #1 and #2 already tweaked some balancing issues and gamebreaking bugs. Assault Rifles feel more consistent and are already fun to play now.
    For update #3 I risk to predict it to make the game much better. They have a lot of change in line, huge bug fixes, huge balance changes and according to leaks even new content such as weapons or "maps"
    (I am not sure on the truth of this)

    From here on BF2042 can only get better and it still has the chance to be a nearly perfect game. They need long-term service, good Seaons, starting from January, nice contents and they need to listen to their community. They are taking a good step on that with talking to the community on Twitter a lot which is indeed very delightful.
    Wait until the first major content update in one week and afterwards decide to rather buy the game or not.
    Yet it can make fun but the proportion of funny and frustratiing moments is around 40 / 60 which is sad for a Battlefield game.

    I have a feeling on this one, I think it can be somthing marvelous, something like Battlefield 4, Battlefield 4 which had a devasting release too and today is considered as one of the greatest games of the franchise!

    The potential is there. Developers need to take it and they will, I think they will show us with the December update that they are willing to give us a great game.

    2) There is no server list, you are forced to play on the maps on which you were thrown. In portal you can join an almost finished game, and in the main all-out warfare mode you sometimes wait for the server to fill up.

    3) There is no table to view the kills / deaths / ping of other players, at best you can calculate your KD (you can see the kills / help / captures of the players of your squad, or the general statistics of another squad, i.e. competitiveness is removed).
    4) I am glad that in all modes there is a store tab, otherwise I was afraid not to find it (just kidding).
    5) Huge TTK, it is impossible to shoot two people, they overwhelm the mass.
    6) Too long pumping, you need to kill 360 people in order to open all the modules for weapons, moreover, it became more difficult to kill people due to the large mode, earlier it was possible to fill in the superiority and clash of teams. The task for the skill skin (red-black skin) is unrealistic, you need to kill 1200 people with grenades or treat 2400 people with a Falki pistol.
    7) Huge maps, you need to run 1 km to get to another point (in the next sector)
    8) There is no pumping on the servers in the portal, the level is pumped only in the recommended section.
    1) Плохая регистрация попаданий, не особо понял, как стрелять в этой игре, возможно в стрельбе присутствует элемент случайности.
    2) Нет списка серверов, ты вынужден играть на картах, на которые тебя закинули. В portal можешь присоединиться к почти законченной игре, а в основном режиме all-out warfare иногда ждешь, когда заполнится сервер.
    3) Нет таблицы чтобы посмотреть убийства/смерти/пинг других игроков, в лучшем случае можешь посчитать свое KD (можно посмотреть убийства/помощи/захваты игроков своего отряда, либо общую статистику другого отряда, т.е. убрана соревновательность).
    4) Радует, что во всех режимах есть вкладка магазин, а то боялся не найти (шутка).
    5) Огромный TTK, невозможно перестрелять двух человек, они перелавливают массой.
    6) Слишком долгая прокачка, нужно убить 360 человек, чтобы отрыть все модули на оружие, притом убивать людей стало сложнее из-за большого режима, раньше можно было набить в превосходстве и схватке команд. Задание на скин мастерства (красно-черный скин) выполнить нереально, нужно убить 1200 человек с гранат или полечить 2400 человек с пистолета Фальки.
    7) Огромные карты, нужно бежать 1 км, чтобы добраться до другой точки (в следующем секторе)

    Some nice visual elements and fan service here and there but overall it's rotten to the core. This franchise is dead. Absolute cringe. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money.

    Очень забагованный бег с рывками. Вряд ли проблема кроется в качестве интернет соединения. У меня оптика 500/500. Возможно проблема в неткоде, как это обычно бывает у Dice. Второй момент это мерцающая вода на картах Battlefield 1942. Периодически отваливается матчмейкинг при создании лобби, лечится это однократным перезапуском игры. Пока других багов не заметил. Я смотрел стримы людей с топовыми ПК, PS4, PS5, боксами, везде это выглядит как игра из 2006. Помните Delta Force с оружием из 2d спрайтов? Как это выглядело в то время? Вот так же сейчас выглядит новый Battlefield. Холмы из треугольных полигонов с ужасающего качества редкой спрайтовой травой. Отдельного внимания заслуживает прогрузка моделей и текстур персонажей в меню (привет тем, у кого не SSD). Сначала грузится что-то напоминающее руку Эрика Картмана, из серии где он нарисовал на ней лицо Дженнифер Лопез, потом какая-то ужасающе низкополигональная маска оператора, а следом уже нормальная модель и ее текстура. Причем это происходит за пару секунд и лучше бы они какой-то загрузчик туда повесили, чтобы он сразу сменялся нормальной моделькой. Сами операторы выглядят совершенно несуразно, их дизайн и исполнение настолько пластилиновые, что они просто не воспринимаются как люди. Это скорее какой-то Army Men. Их реплики и эмоции настолько неуместны и несуразны, что заставляют тебя задуматься о том, почему именно ты испытываешь испанский стыд, а не тот, кто это все рисовал. Такое чувство, что в игре существует только вертикальная отдача, как в Bad Company (не скажу наверняка в 1 или 2). Что касается знаменитой разрушаемости Frostbite, то здесь она хуже чем в Bad Company. Вообще физика новой батлы это огромный шаг назад. Опять вернусь к операторам - они убогие, их перки и гаджеты просто отвратительны. Никаких запоминающихся реплик типа "Я попал под серьезное дерьмо" от сурового медика в красном берете или "Вы посмотрите, что они с домами-то сотворили". В игре нет души, наверное потому что вас сразу кидают в мультиплеер с минимальным объяснением сеттинга и сути конфликта. Вы играете за безликих людей, которые выглядят как манекены с китайского рынка пали. И сама игра также воспринимается как подделка, как дешевая елочная игрушка, которая висит себе на елке, блестит, но не радует.    … Expand

This is FPS game and you don't have scoreboard and stat, like what, this is too extreme for me. There is just too much small things that missing from previous games that were so essential (choosing squads too).

I feel that this game has totally missed the mark. It feels like Dice has a total disconnection and lack of respect for the player base that are essentially the ones who pay the bills. They've unfortunately chased trends on too many levels and in turn, created a cheap, childlike experience with barely any back bone.

    The total lack of any recognition of the issues and bury your head in the sand approach to how the community feels about the game, will ultimately be why this game will be forgotten about very soon.

    Why a design team with such a solid foundation for the perfect blend of not being too much milsim and not too much arcade would make some of these design decisions is beyond me. I can only think that the team working on this game is definitely not the same team as what we've seen in the past. I often wonder whether any of Dice actually play tested this game in the first place.

    The introduction of "characters" that can carry any weapon into the game with specific abilities, instantly kills off the experience. One, that's not battlefield. Two, it's just killed all your squad play. Three, there's only a handful of them on each team (The same on BOTH teams). Four, it's just killed off vehicles being fun as every character can carry AA or AT... These core choices they've made kill the game before it even gets off the ground.

    Combine this with large maps, you just end up with a mess of players running around like headless chickens. From my experience 90% of players are just playing solo off on their own little jolly testing out wing suits and seeing how long they last as a one man army.

    I don't normally rant on reviews, but I've played pretty much every iteration of this franchise. From 1942, Desert Combat etc to the days of 2142, BF2 and all the way up. But what they've handed out this time is pretty much unforgiveable. I feel like they've just said **** you" to everyone that's made this game what it is, in favor of trying to rope in kiddies who want to play as "characters" with "powers" like the rest of the god awful cheap immature franchises we see today.    … Expand

EA shamefully just gets worse with every game they release, the same with this franchise, and they clearly put less effort with their games... The only part of the game i enjoyed was the Bad Company 2 maps, because that were genuinely good designed maps and even then they managed to ruin it because of the physics of the new engine, lack of maps being only two and the they lack the UAV.
    I would even go as far to say that the beta was actually A BETTER GAME, yes, A BETA!!!

    Barely any guns in the base game, portal has had most of the guns from previous titles taken out (probably to make it seem like bf2042 isn’t shockingly lacking compared to previous instalments).

    Gun unlock system is just a COD clone. Gone are the Battlefield days where if you wanted a specific sniper rifle, so you’d use a sniper class. I personally loved this system. Now you use anything and get everything purely by level in up. Maps are almost too large, it’s a sprinting simulator half the time. Hit registration is poor (you’ll shoot between the targets legs and get hit markers, but shoot them in the elbow and you won’t get a hit) Terrible performance with a 3080TI has now thankfully been patched by nvidia (pre-patch, on lowest settings and FFR on @2k res, I was getting 40-90 fps, post-patch I am now thankfully getting 75-130 in fully maxed out bar ray-tracing, FRR on).

Lack of anti air shoulder weapons and just an overall lack of weapons in general. As well as an odd and bizarre way of using and accessing weapon attachments. Another strange feature is using “specialist” instead of the traditional class selection. In the future I’d like to see a TDM introduced as well. As the game can be overwhelming to new users in the larger scale combat modes and much slower paced. In the larger maps you will spend a lot of time time walking long distances to get to objectives because the pre match inability to fill vehicles. Only allowing one player to enter the selected vehicle and dropping the rest of the players on foot. Leaving them to try and find a ride(rare that other player wait and let you in) or walk the entire map to the different objectives. The portal feature is neat. Allowing a nostalgic feel in reliving some of the other BF favorites. Yet again though the lack of weapons, attachments and lack of maps available start to hinder some of this gameplay as well. I would consider myself a Battlefield enthusiast with over 500hrs + logged into BF4 and another 300+ in BF3 not to mention many hours in all the other BF games combined. Overall I’m genuinely disappointed in this game and may unfortunately label this game my least favorite BF game of all time. It’s a huge miss for the community with a game that had/has potential to be another fun Battlefield game. Hopefully this game can pull a 180 with some patches and dlc content.

    Wow. I knew the franchise was in big trouble after Battlefield V but man oh man I didn't think they could mess this one up after they learned what works and what doesn't. Where do I begin?
    There are no classes. That's right, you know get Apex legends style specialists with abilities such as turrets, shields etc. For those of you saying so what, change is good. There are no weapons.

    There are no classes. That's right, you know get Apex legends style specialists with abilities such as turrets, shields etc. For those of you saying so what, change is good. There are no weapons. I mean there's about 12 but you have to play the game for days to make any meaningful progression. So you are stuck with the base M5 for hours and hours with no alternative. Graphically on ps4, it looks like cyberpunk 2077, a blurry hazey mess, even with motion blur and all the camera tricks turned off. Online performance is good, meaning when you get into a server it is not laggy like bf4 was at launch. The nail in the coffin GAME MODES ARE GONE. There are 3 conquest-based game modes now. To play what everyone who's ever played a battlefield game remembers as battlefield you have to use a gimmicky weird app/ menu on the screen called "Portal". Where you can find player created games which somewhat bring back the formula that worked. Menu upon menus upon menus, disgusting UI, easily the worst UI of any app or video game I have ever played. Gone is the simple customization and now you are met with FORTNITE/ apex style of aesthetic character modification. Want to change the attachment on your guns ? oh you have to do that during the match at the very start or else you will get fragged, your loadouts also RESET every game you play.

    Congratulations dice, your greed ruined your brain child. You had a good thing going, even after BF V I had faith you could return your roots (BFBC1-2, BF3-4) but you had to rush this garbage to market. This is nowhere near the level of polish that a 80 dollar AAA title should have. It seems like there were too many cooks in the kitchen with this one and whoever was in charge of UI needs to be jailed. Bring back classes, bring back classic game modes without the "portal" and allow players to make their own game modes without using a PC. This whole game is a mess, please don't buy this. I bought it on sale for 60 bucks tax in and I feel like I have better off burning my money than contributing the the cancer that is EA Dice.    … Expand

Every explosive that commits suicide to further the cause dies in a quiet an limited area alone. The environment "events" are limited to a weak and sad tornado. This tornado can't hurt much and just spins around without purpose (except to be mildly annoying). When you shoot infantry with a 50 cal mounted gun on a tank that person gets a vigorous massage for a while and can jump and spin to massage all parts of their body until they find cover.

After Cod dropped the ball I thought this was the year that would take Battlefield to the top. Oh how wrong was i. I was expecting a return to BF4 or BF3 game play but its just rotten.

After Cod dropped the ball I thought this was the year that would take Battlefield to the top. Oh how wrong was i. I was expecting a return to BF4 or BF3 game play but its just rotten.

    Cons
    - Removing classes, seriously this is the main feature of BF games. It promotes to a point teamwork. Its gone and now most people run the same self serving kits. BF4 had it almost perfect, it just needed polished.
    - Small amount of guns, with it being a futuristic game you would think the imagination would run wild and there would be a ton of guns as per BF3 and 4 but nah its just disappointing.
    - 2 steps forward and 20 back. BF 5 introduced fortifications which were fun but you removed anything similar in this game. The points system in BF1 and BF5 gave you points per damage this games seems to have went back to BF3 style and its clunky. I thought with a future settings you would be able to build sam turrets, laser turrets, modern versions of barb wire (Laser Wire?) and sad bags. It was a tiny element of BF5 but it could've been developed to be interesting.
    - Lack of traditional game modes.
    - Portal is a nice idea but and it plays better than the real game but it just feels like a side game
    - Gun play and infantry play is shocking. Bad hit reg, maps are super open you basically run until you die. Most of the times ive just seen vehicles driving about the map running over people and demolishing the buildings they are hiding in just by driving into them.
    - Specialist equipment would've been better as gadgets for specific classes.
    - The big map features in previous games were way better i.e. the levelolution in BF4, The Behemoths in BF1. How can you go back the way?
    - The graphics are glitchy and the game has a ton of bugs.
    -Sound design is horrible, you can hear footsteps from a mile away but vehicles make zero sound when they are next to you.
    - Squads need to be bigger and the squad system in bf 5 was waaaaay better. The fact you need a vehicle call in system just means you made the map primarily for vehicles. Which is fine for battlefield but this games feels like its neglected all other play styles
    - Operators, seriously why dont you just let us pick a skin and let us customise it?
    - This game is clearly designed for next gen, please dont ever release it on last gen if its not going to play well.
    - I actually think BF4, BF1 and Bf5 all looked and played better.
    - Why is the grenade button no a shoulder button by default it sucks!
    - Menus are not clear, buggy and confusion.
    - Very little attachment options and they dont offer much.
    - Vehicles are samey.
    - Game feels like it needs another year.
    -Playing the old maps in portal mode was so nostalgic but the game play makes it unplayable. I used to love Noshar on Conquest or rush but i was left with a bad taste in my mouth. I used to love Caspian on TDM but again the gun play is so poor its just a game of hide and seek until you die.
    - The 'Battle Royal' but not a 'Battle Royal' mode is terrible, just scrap it or just make it a new game mode for the real game i.e. without the battle royal progression. Gun play lets it down.

    They even removed the scoreboard, in a competitive shooter, you cant even see if youre doing any good. Just awful!

    That's just off the top of my head and I'm so angry.

    Seriously, all you needed to do was take the best elements from BF3/4/1 and 5 combine them and update it for a future setting.

    Dont buy this, they are going to have to pull out a stunning first patch to save this game.    … Expand

    Battlefield 2042 adds little in the new department and takes away a lot from the old. Without leaning onto the presupposed Portal community, having in mind the lack of an actual campaign and overall lack of technical stability, you have very little reason to be interested in Battlefield 2042

    If you’re looking to enjoy the next Battlefield title, turn back now. With the next patch not slated to arrive for another month, and the next content update to release some time after that, it’s going to be a while before 2042 can earn the right to be called a true Battlefield game. It’s best to wait until the smoke clears and DICE fixes any major bugs (maybe even wait for it to go on discount) before spending $70 on this game.
