    I cannot believe how people treat this game! It is an absolute masterpiece and there is literally not a single con to this game. I love it, paid full price for it and am deeply grateful with all my heart to developers. Honestly the lowest score it deserves is 8/10 but as long as there are no real competitors to this game as a multiplayer shooter experience it is definitely 10/10 for me.

    I don't care what people say. its one of the best battlefield ever made
    portal mode is awesome. graphic is so cool. its so nostalgic to play bf 3 in portal mode. I think that's a good idea to remove classes and add specialist. one of my problem in bf4 is I cant have stinger and claymore together . but now with removing classes I can have them

    I understand why people are upset about the game's state at launch. It was filled with bugs and glitches that really made the game a lot less fun (even though some of the bugs were hilarious).
    But i think that the game has gotten much better since launch. Almost all the bugs and glitches has been removed, there has been added new content to the game and the envoirnmental destructability

    But i think that the game has gotten much better since launch. Almost all the bugs and glitches has been removed, there has been added new content to the game and the envoirnmental destructability has been improved significantly and smaller structures can now be brought down completeley.
    And the introduction of classes to the game has really added a whole new layer to the game and it really encourages teamwork.
    Overall i think battlefield 2042 is much better now but sometimes it just doesen't quite feel like battlefield. Sometimes. So don't purchase the game blindly as you might be disappointed alt least if you are a fan of the old BF games, but if you just want some pure multiplayer mayhem i think it is worth it at least if you can grab it on sale cuz 70 bucks can be spent more wiseley.

    Battlefield in modern time finally. Battlefield 2042, like everyone else Battlefield titles, started not without problems. This game need some polish, but I am sure that will be fixed. Many of users tell about team play problems, but it depends on the users themselves, doesn't it? After all, the game itself has all the necessary mechanics for this. UI also quite not good to use.

Some maps have problems with map design, too much large and empty spaces. Visual part of game, animations and gun impact is really good for me. Breakthrough mode with 64 vs 64 looks very spectacular. I'll put a score of 10, because there are a lot of unfair 0 here. Haters gonna hate. Expand

    A game that has no competitors right now. For those who are tired of games about World War 2!

Это стольПопытаюсь без нецензурной лексики, потому что иначе что происходит в отзывах как мракобесием не назвать, а лучше перейдём к игре. Battlefield это праздник, всегда праздник. И этот батлфилд не стал исключением. Я буду отталкиваться от негативных рецензий выстраивая список из достоинств. Начнём с рационального, максимально логичного развития командного взаимодействия людей. Это столь нашумевшие оперативники. Люди жалуются на то что никто не кидает патроны, не ресает и вообще кошмар, и ужас, но либо они не играли в игру, либо (что вероятнее) дети. Так как процент воскрешения и дачи патронов, и другой помощи от союзников по моему субъективному наблюдению такой же в точности как и в прошлых частях серии батлфилд. Оперативники-это хорошо, они дают максимально раскрыть взаимодействие 4 человек в отряде. Вы с братюнями можетё творить такое в связках,что и не снилось в прошлых частях. И трёп некоторых личностей мол "БОЛЬШИНСТВО БУДЕТ БРАТЬ ЧУВАКА С КРЮКОМ ОН ЖЕ КАПЕЦ КАКОЙ КРУТОЙ КРЮК ЭТО ТАК КРУТО ЛЕТАТЬ ПИЮ ПИЮ ПИЮ ПИЮ ПИЮ И НЕ БУДЕТ МЕДИКОВ СТО ПРОЦ Я ВАМ ГОВОРЮ" , и я не выдумываю
    соломенное чучело чтоб его разбить, такое мнение реально существует. Так вот, таким людям хочется сказать поиграйте в игру, камон. Это утверждение содержит противоречие, оно не связано с реальностью. Все оперативники - хороши, все они используются в определенных ситуациях и их необходимо менять по мере смены карты и даже сектора одной карты. Количество оружия для мультикласса достаточное и оно планомерно размазано по уровням, следовательно , пушки не успевают заебать, т.к. плюсом они максимально все разные. Техника- моё почтение, кастомайз техники сделан таким образом, что ты чувствуешь реальную прогрессию в своем танке. От консервной банки до бога на колесах надо реально научится нагибать, а не просто аутировать. Так игра ещё и ништяков накинет за то что ты нагибаешь. Карты, вот это самая обычная история батлфилда, большая их часть говнище лютое, но есть прям топовые на которых и только на которых хочется играть. Есть карты удачные, есть говно. Боги мои, вы вообще играли в старые батлфилды? Это дефолт что много мусорных карт. Стрельба - хуже чем в батлфилд 5, но пойдёт, на уровне хардлайна по ощущениям. Портал - пушка, хазард зон - недооцененная пушка. И кто говорит мол "В ХАЗАРД ЗОНЕ НЕТУ СМЫСЛА ИГРАТЬ ТАМ НЕ ДАЮТ СКИНОВ НАПРИМЕР ЗА ПОБЕДЫ ЫУУУ" и в этот момент же хвалят портал(где нету никакой прогрессии и плюшек) это так для понимания шизофреников в обзорах. Единственные минусы server browser в портале работает криво абсолютно, и то что профильной статистики нету. Торнадо - пушка, это лучше чем фау 2 из бф5. Звуки и графика на уровне. Рекомендую всем

    Game is getting better by the patch but it’s at a slow rate. We’re put in an endless waiting cycle to wait for the next month with a big patch that hopefully fixes all performance issues. Currently it’s been about 5 months and the game has had no content, and is still glitchy. The overhauled scoreboard is the best scoreboard we’ve gotten in a battlefield game but was 4-5 months to late.Game is getting better by the patch but it’s at a slow rate. We’re put in an endless waiting cycle to wait for the next month with a big patch that hopefully fixes all performance issues. Currently it’s been about 5 months and the game has had no content, and is still glitchy. The overhauled scoreboard is the best scoreboard we’ve gotten in a battlefield game but was 4-5 months to late. Personally I feel that the art team has content lying around, but the game’s development clearly had issues. EA/DICE clearly made the decision to first fix the game and then release content (in summer). As a fan of the franchise I really hope this April’s patch is the one that fixes the major game breaking issues, but I don’t have confidence in that anymore. With content coming this summer I’ll probably start playing when that time comes.

    EDIT: Season 1 launch has been very good, game performs very good on PS5 and bugs are rare. Content was very small but it was high quality, I like playing through the battle pass and the content in that is also very quality stuff (some games have it worse). While the content from the store is quite pricy, they are in my opinion actually very cool (would like to see more army like skins though), I see a lot of people running around with skins from paid bundles so its must be the general perception too.

    I hope that the next season contains at least 2-4 maps, 2 vehicles (preferably jets) and over 4 weapons.

    New update and map are great, and so are the flashback conquest maps from older games in the series! Just need to add them to the default rotation!

    While the repetition and lack of content cooled my enthusiasm a bit, I am excited to see where DICE can take Battlefield 2042 from here — if current industry trends hold, I’m confident this will be a strong addition to my already-full shooter rotation after a few months of additions and updates.

    Despite a traditionally rocky launch, the latest Battlefield proves itself one of the best in the series. Tell Edwin Starr we found out what war is good for. [Issue#9, p.72]

    As nostalgic joys go, though, it's a damning one. [Issue#367, p.106]
