Вертолеты просто косят всех , воздушная подушка тоже имба, система специалистов такой идиотизм, 128 игроков это лишнее не успеваешь появиться тебя убивают.

    I've played 9 hours of this game and I'm really enjoying it so far, despite what everybody's saying. For me it's the perfect compromise between Battlefield's traditional slower and more methodical approach and the fast paced gameplay from the likes of CoD, Titanfall etc. I don't get how people expect every new game to be a Bf3 clone/reskin with no innovation whatsoever.

    Very unplayable state of game. 128 players on flat, open maps is a total chaos.

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

It's riddled with bugs, no voice chat, no scoreboard, weapon bloom is crazy so gunfights over 50m are pure luck. The UI is not very user friendly and settings also have overlapping colours. The core experience of battlefield has been completely taken away with what used to feature gritty gun fights with fantastic immersion to now cartoon character specialists with cheesy voice lines and no real feeling of the intensity of battle.

    everything we use to enjoy about BF games has been removed in an attempt for EA to cash in on the little kiddy money. expect the game to soon be flooded with skins

    This has nothing to do with Battlefield.

    No 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!

    No scoreboard, no servers, only 22 weapons, lackluster destruction and levolution, camos look awful and bland, no in-game stats, only 2 game modes. This battlefield isn’t a real battlefield game. 128 players is nonsense; just added unnecessary chaos, you don’t even end up getting more kills. 64 players should be the max. 7 maps in total and they have awful flow.

    BF2042 can be a good game if Dice listens to the community. Matchmaking after every round, no chat, no scoreboard, lack of guns, large maps that serve no purpose (other than making you run 300+ meters to get to the objective), etc., all suck.

    Doesn't feel like Battlefield at all. Soul less, cod imitation. How sad is that? It really is. So disappointed. Feels wonky, clunky, uninspired, basically the opposite of how Battlefield we all know and love.

    Maybe some people enjoy being farmed by helicopters 24/7, but I'm not one of them. In addition to scores of other problems, DICE clearly made no effort to balance this game.

    I’ve been playing Battlefield games since BF3 and I loved them all. 2042 is, unfortunately, a complete departure from what made these games great. The technical flaws at launch are annoying, but the bigger problems are in the game design. It’s terrible. Don’t buy this game. Instead, buy and play any other previous Battlefield game.

    This is the first time that I wanted a refund on PS.

    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.
