    Battlefeild 1, a game that is 5 years old, has better graphics, better design, better class system, better maps, better sound. Battlefeild 2042 is a culmination of years of dice throwing excrement at the wall and see what sticks.

    It's the best multiplayer fps game for sure but I don't appreciate the direction EA is taking. First Battlefield is a MATURE audience, most of the gamer are male - 20-45 years old. They do not wish to have a Fortnite experience in Battlefield. + Nothing justified that solo campaign is missing on this game

    Never was so disappointed, the game isn't ready to be released (considering how much time DICE had compared to cod games, it's just impermissible), the shooting is also weird (like from CoD), so the game doesn't deserve to be bought by any sane player.

    The main game mode is just very poorly made. Nothing from the real BF is there! BF fans didn't want this game. In 2 years of game development, DICE has done nothing good except Portal mode.

There is not even a table at the end of the round!!! It's now 4.12.21 and the game crashes constantly on my PS5, even after the 3rd patch that DICE released. I think this year CoD looks much better than my favorite BF. It should be a shame for the studio management and managers who are forced to make such games for the sake of money. Expand

You should have options for your squad or team too chat with. Playing with friends in your own squad and staying together. I bought this game because I love Battlefield. But this is not Battlefield. Call in system needs too be taken out , or completely reworked . Having full platoons of vehicles on top of a skyscraper is simply stupid so the other team has no chance at taking those objectives.

    As a long time Battlefield player I was hoping so much this would be the end all of who had the better game between BF and COD. I was expecting a actual Battlefield type experience with this game but it doesn't fully immerse you like the other Battlefield games. The graphics are good on next gen and PC. It runs smooth depending on hardware.

I was expecting a actual Battlefield type experience with this game but it doesn't fully immerse you like the other Battlefield games. The graphics are good on next gen and PC. It runs smooth depending on hardware. I play on PS5 and haven't had but a few issues. The UI however is a mess and doesn't have a smooth flow to it. The maps also feel empty and not lived in. I see where they were going with the concept and mechanics of the game but I really think they missed what their core fan base wanted. Some of the new features are enjoyable and I like some of the direction they went in. However too many corners were cut, to many key features that makes Battlefield, well, Battlefield were left out and the community is down right angry about it. They need to listen to the players, the fan base that has supported them for years with there time and money. There are several things that need to be added back in. I don't need to go through the list because it's all over the internet what they screwed up. I want to have hope for this game and I truly hope Dice can get there act together and change it for the better. With the new systems in place they should be able to not only patch and update but to fully adjust how the game feels and plays. If they can add in what they left out to get back to the basics, bring new and seasonal events to keep the game fresh and not go the route of how the other FPS have gone with gimmicks and pay to win items, then I think this could be a really great game. Yes there are bugs, yes the game does not feel complete, no it is not worth $60-$70 currently, but, this is a big but, if they listen and open their eyes to what their community truly wants, fix problems quickly, and communicate with players it could turn out to be a game well worth hundreds of hours worth of play. For the time being I will be going back to playing Warzone and BF 1 & 5 until they fix the issues. Expand

    Create the most basic "futuristic city" in the background and the whole map is a simple, undetailed boring park...

    The graphics on PS5 looked better on the Beta probably? Seems like lack of detail is because of 128 player game, NOT a good compromise...

    The combat is good, I like it and have a lot of fun. But the maps are so few and some so bad that I want to shut down the game before it starts...

    The game modes are FAR to few, add smaller maps, TDM 32 vs 32, small conquest, gun game, SINGLE PLAYER ETC.!

    Extra weapons, content is very needed also.

Sniping is ridiculously stupid, if you don’t headshot, player will survive to 2-3

The weapons feel weak and insignificant, plus it is so buggy you can shoot someone with 15+ rounds before they start to register. Armor needs removed as well as it is not innovation, it is a gimmick that ruins core gameplay. Rocket launchers do not harm players like they should, C5 feels incredibly weak, there is no penalty to aim when jump and slide shooting. It's like this game is BF in name only. It truly wants to be something that caters to a different player base. One that is not tactical and requires very little thinking, and I hate it. I'm not mad, just disappointed at how bad this game is after being so hyped up. I have been a BF player for 16 years, and I have never been so let down like I am with this game. Also where are the score boards and voice chat? Why are the most basic features gone? What is happening to this company and why are people giving them a free pass? Your time is better spent on other games, seriously. Expand

    Its a conundrum to say the least, when there is this push and pull on quality when it comes to BF games. I absolutely loved BF1 in every aspect.

I debated with myself on buying the game since there was no reviews or clips on consoles, and the views on PC looked good but with massive performance issues.Its a conundrum to say the least, when there is this push and pull on quality when it comes to BF games.

Obviously, being a BF fan for so many years, I went against my better judgement. As a gamer, I dont like to wait too long to play something I absolutely love, and so I am part of the problem by buying a game that is mediocre in its time at launch, giving developers no real responsibility in keeping up in shipping poor quality games at release. Will it get better, of course, but how much time will they keep investing into this game to fix it, remains to be seen. We all see how BF5 went. This may very well be the very last BF title I buy, especially if I am having to wait months to finally get the game I paid for. Expand

Map design isn't the best, get killed way too often trying to get to objectives, plays like a slog compared to previous entries... Too many omissions and strange choices here, destruction is a shadow of what it has been in previous entries...
    I gave it a 3 because I still think it has some potential, but for a game I just got, in one of my favorite series ever, it's disappointing to know I won't be playing it as much as the aforementioned 3...
    Only 2 modes in the main game outside of Portal and Hazard Zone, the latter which I have no interest in...
    No TDM, Rush, Small Conquest, Gun Master etc...
    Maybe it'll get better in the next 6 months...

Requesting squad leader roles doesn't work so you're stuck playing 99 out of 100 games with a potato squad leader that doesn't set objectives. Map design is average at best, open bland maps. Nothing like what we had with bad company 1 & 2, bf3, or bf4. Map destruction starting with bf1 has been limited. It's even more limited in bf2042. Completely op smgs, no zeroing for snipers, slow reload or gun ready animations, this game feels as if it should've been released late 2022.

    I give it a 0 because it should never be released like this. The devs and publishers knew better. If it was the first title from a small team I'd give it a 5. But companies like EA and Dice have proven to be pos companies ran by pos people. They dont deserve our money.

Thats about the only positive thing i have to say. Where do i begin? Lack of guns, lack of customization, NO SCOREBOARD ?? Console players cannot even see the simple stats that PC players can like kills and deaths while in game. Ridiculous. The Hit registration and TTK are extremely unpredictable, theres only 6 maps and it feels like you only play Manifest 24/7. I cannot believe what kind of state this game was released in. DICE and EA should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. The game industry HAS to stop letting games release in states like this. We paid money for a working, finished product. Expand

After a few sessions with my mates I'm sad now, the game is so awful. I was hoping to enjoy some more modern combat like Battlefield 3 and 4. The bugs and glitches are constant, the vehicles are mostly rediculous in my opinion. Many of the class abilites don't play much of a role in the game. The maps are so overcrowded and unstructured the enemy is coming in like flies from anywhere at any time. The spawning is broken for me. The enemy spotting is broken, the sniping has been cut back on, what is with everyone being able to revive? A healing gun, seriously? What makes me laugh with all of that is now I can put a radio on when I'm in a vehicle, that's exactly what I wanted in a Battlefield game, a silly radio function. I knew there would be grapple, and wing suits, and all these silly looking specialists but figured it would still be the good old battlefield gameplay, but it's not even close. Can I turn off the character voices after the game? I really don't care about the different specialists, I just care about enjoying the game with some friends in squad. It's confusing sometimes to see either side of the match with the same specialists too. I found a great post on Reddit listing all the things that have been removed from this battlefield that was standard in previous battlefield titles, and it's a very very long list.

    The arrival on map are just stupids and bugged, the respawn sometimes makes no sense, the comments of best players at the end of game are ridiculous.

    - Problems with netcode, a classic for the series on release;
    - The presence of operatives and, as a consequence, the lack of a military atmosphere (It is impossible to feel the atmosphere of war when the same people are fighting on both sides);
    - Horrible sounds of shots;

    Portal perfectly modernizes the old parts of the series, BUT there are very few maps, and the HUD is still crap.
    In an attempt to return the sandbox and fan service so beloved to the players in the battlefield 3 & 4, Dice screw up at every point and thereby prove that the studio that made bf 3&4 has long been dead.

    2042 is no worse than any other Battlefield at launch, and after getting to about level 25 I have found that it has some unique aspects that really start to shine the more you play and explore with the possibilities. Looking forward to its evolution and improvements. Not sure what to say about the super negative reception other than it hasn't been my experience at all, occasional bugs but nothing crazy -- playing on PS5 with crossplay disabled -- it works great and is awesome. As with most polarized topics these days, there is a loud and vocal minority. I wish them luck and am sorry their experiences haven't been up to their standards, would anything please them though?

    The game is a solid 5 out of 10. The weirdest issue with the game is that it has no scoreboard which makes the game feel soulless. The game play is OK to burn an hour of time.

In software development process, you would start from scratch if you messed it up like they did. No chance of reparing that. There must be some fundamental questionable architectural decision.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game really fails to live up to the hype that it got. In a nutshell, this game was not worth the $100 I paid for it. It is more of a $30 game at best and here's why:

    -The game has no campaign. I could look past this if the multiplayer had more maps and game modes but unfortunately the few game modes aren't terribly engaging.
    -Basic Battlefield staples are missing such as building destruction, classes, squad play, and bullet drop. This feels more like Call of Duty than Battlefield and it is a terrible letdown.
    -The new way of customizing the weapons is interesting but I think was not well executed. It is clunky and honestly more problematic than it is worth. Again, it undermines the squad strategy play.
    -There's few maps and weapons and the weapons are terribly unbalanced. The assault rifles recoil too much and are unusable at longer ranges. The SMG's by comparison are much more effective than they should be.
    -Marking enemies is almost impossible and you end up marking points on the map instead of the enemy.
    -The game mode most people seem to enjoy is portal where you can play past games. This unfortunately undermines 2042 as a whole because people enjoy the older games instead of the newer game. I'm not sure why that was included when they could have put more time and effort in making 2042 better.
    -Lastly the graphics are terrible. There was so much hype about how much more realistic the graphics were. Honestly even after the game fully buffers, the graphics in Battlefield 1 look better in my opinion.

    The game honestly feels like it was made by the people who were working on Call of Duty. The opening scenes made it seem like they had a good idea for a storyline but it doesn't go anywhere past that scene. There is no direction and ultimately seems like there is no point to it.

Squads mean nothing (I don't know why they even exist in the game), there are no classes, and worst of all I can't even pick my gun or specialist because the game is so bugged. The only thing remotely okay is the portal mode, which is literally just a copy of previous battlefield games with this new buggy game engine. Another thing you should know, this game only has two real game modes, both of which are locked at 128 players on maps that are too big and too empty where so that the only viable way to get kills is with a tank, helicopter, or sniper. I'm so disappointed in this series. What a shame. Expand

    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]
