    They’ve literally downgraded battle field. Getting rid of classes is one of the worst things they could have done. Not to mention this game is beyond bugged, to the point of being unplayable. I don’t understand why they would even release it in this state. The only reason would be to compete with call of duty.

    They want you to "just have fun and not worry about competing" because competing is "toxic" which is just another new word for what they think is "immoral" because they are all Marxist activists over at DICE

    Imagine a soccer game, and how many people would watch if they just didnt keep score but said "just have fun" and at the end "both teams win! lets hug!"

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Почитайте раздел для пекарей, там люди ссут гекталитрами кипятка, на топовых машинах абсолютно то же самое багованное тормозное говно, что и у нас, наконец-то все стали равны: никакого преимущества для мышкодрочеров-AWSDшников с углом обзора а-ля "глаза на жопе".
    Цена - как два раза сходить в Пятерочку, приемлемо. И дно выбьет примерно так же, как с их просроченного кефира.
    Ебучие тормоза стартуют прямо с экрана входа в аккаунт, корабль дергается на волнах, а волны передергиваются вместе с ним. Мотивирующей на бой музыки нету, какие-то блевотные мотивы, непонятно каким умиротворенным шведом сочиненные, не вызывающие никаких эмоций. И хер вам, а не корабли, их тут нет (пока нет, потом добавят, на них можно будет летать, судя по общему баг-фону, ура блеать).
    Обучения тут нет, вам никто не объяснит, как чем пользоваться, куда бежать, что собирать, как действовать: до 10 уровня включительно вас будут трахать во всех режимах (а тут их целых ТРИ, ахахахахахахахха, причем режим Прорыв у меня за неделю так и не заработал), и если вам лень разбираться, то так и останетесь вечным Борей с его турелью-хуелью.
    Еще нужно будет сидеть в многоуровневых хитрожопых меню (попутно путая курки с блоками), и доводить до ума интерфейс, управление и т.д. Гребаная песочница для любителей песка в глазах. Разрабы пытались сделать меню "раз и навсегда", чтоб оно было как у ПК, так и у консолей одно и то же (экономные какие, да, ребята?), в итоге на консолях черт ногу сломит все эти настройки настраивать. Пробовал вернуть ветеранское управление на вертолеты, надо блеать каждую кнопку перепривязывать: то есть вы ставите стрельбу на правый блок, когда там уже стоит вызов меню отряда, и в игре у вас вертолет открывает огонь и одновременно вылезает ебаное меню отряда на весь экран!! Это блеать вообще как возможно? Это как на кнопку Enter еще и Esc одновременно привязать.
    Одиночной компании, чтобы войти в курс дела, тут нет. Вы нихера не поймете, что к чему, просто какие-то мужики и бабы с оружием, локации никаким повествованием не связаны, просто точки на карте. Бабы и мужики регулярно выдают какие-то тупые фразочки, испанский стыд берет за такое. Я не удивлюсь, если Фальк - транс, ибо в 21 веке если транса нету, еще в суд подадут на разрабов.

    This is the latest in a string of questionable decisions DICE have been making over the past few years.

Somehow the longtime Battlefield developer managed to completely miss the fact that gamers simply don't appreciate their big, triple-A shooters not having a single-player campaign, despite the backlash their first entry into the rebooted Battlefront series and EA's other significant FPS franchise Titanfall received for that very reason, so here we are with another multiplayer only title. This is coming right on the heels of their Battlefront II microtransaction controversy and them telling people if they didn't like the lack of historical accuracy in Battlefield V to not buy it, which ended up being advice everybody happily took (LOL!). That "half a game" mentality many are going to be walking into this with may just be the least of the studio's problems however, as those who do take the plunge will notice plenty of technical shortcomings and a shocking lack of anything innovative enough to truly justify the purchase over continuing to play one of the series' older entries instead. I wasn't expecting to find the most polished version of the game here on what is now considered to be an outdated model of Xbox, but they still could have done a better job. On top of a plethora of weird visual anomalies and glitches, the graphics are dated with blurry textures that often struggle to load in. 2042 also runs into an issue similar to the one Call of Duty: Ghosts had when it tried to simultaneously create an experience that fully took advantage of the capabilities of next gen consoles, while also providing a lesser port that catered to the limitations of older hardware in an effort to cash in on as wide an audience as possible. Which is to say owners of the Series X or PS5 get to partake in massive 128 player battles, whereas those without are stuck in matches only half that size. This leads to some of the larger maps feeling barren at points, which can prove frustrating given how long it takes you to trek to where the action has moved when you don't have access to a vehicle. On the flip side though there are the locations where it seems like if anybody else joined everything would devolve into a giant clustermuck, so maybe neither option has the advantage.

    While I've heard a lot of complaints about it, I personally loved the new UI. I have always complained in the past about how so many of Battlefield's important systems like loadout customization have been hidden in a mess of unattractive, obtuse menus. So the way all of this once difficult to decipher information is now presented in a manner that's easy to comprehend and allows me to swap out equipment and weapon attachments between respawns or even mid-combat with little to no trouble is a huge improvement in my eyes. It's a shame that's the sole area where the experience takes a step forward. The core action is undeniably familiar to a fault. There are two new modes, "Hazard Zone" and "Portal." The former of which plays out a lot like "Plunder" from Warzone and is ultimately skippable, while the latter actually shows a lot of potential with its ability for players to create matches with custom rulesets and content taken from fan favorite classics such as Bad Company 2. It's not enough to save the package, but is actually something I would like to see come back expanded in the inevitable next sequel.

    As nice as the upgraded, streamlined interface and nostalgia-laden user creation mechanics are, 2042 doesn't offer the necessary amount of original ideas to legitimately validate its existence as worthy of your time over any of its predecessors. I think it's telling that the most fun I had with it was playing with the reused material from 1942. What's worse is that it feels like this is only the case because it was rushed out in an incomplete state before anything substantial could come from it in order to fulfill some bogus regular release requirements or to compete/keep up with the latest Call of Duty. This would explain the lack of expected features (campaign) and highlights how milking a property long after the inventiveness of its creators has run out leads to mediocre products that ultimately drive away the audience it once profited on.    … Expand

    Doesn’t feel like a Battlefield game at all. The flagship Conquest mode, now with 128 players has no play structure or tactical bearing involved.

You’re either out in no man’s land with no one around doing nothing, or caught up in a COD style free-for-all Zerg cluster f*** with no ability to be tactical or influence the outcome. Getting bumped off from every angle and axis half of the time when you spawn in the fight. It’s also a very poorly balanced game when it comes to game mode population and most vehicles, weapons plus the stupidest idea to have character personalities that are ‘customised’, instead of original classes and loadouts? Other issues include: poor kill notification, ridiculous looking post-match ‘avatar clone line up’, a confusing and unclear round reward and gear unlock system - makes the game wholly unrewarding and left feeling like you’ve achieved nothing, regardless of how you performed. It’s like DICE were so focused on getting 128 player on a single map and taking on COD - that they didn’t bother considering much else? A real example of ‘caught in your own soundbox’ development here.

    Stop trying to rip-off other games’ ideas, and get back to what used to make BF the best shooters of all time. I’ve played every BF starting in 2002, and I’ve never once felt the need to write a poor review. But sadly and with no exaggeration: this could be the worst one so far. Good job I played a trial for 10 hours and didn’t waste my money beforehand, this is the ONLY BF game in franchise history that I have not purchased. I’m giving it a 1/10 for the inclusion of the legacy game modes - which is a nice touch - but unfortunately they are so unpopulated you can’t get a good match going.

Breakthrough is far inferior as a game mode. * Hazard Zone -    Horrible buggy mess that could have been prevented. Obviously should have been delayed based on the beta.

    * No Rush mode for the main maps. Breakthrough is far inferior as a game mode.
    * Hazard Zone - where can't find a match on Xbox One.
    * The UI is terrible. It's like a talentless child designed it. Ugly, convoluted and busy. You spend way too much time in the menus trying to figure out how they work and how to change stuff. Can't find games you want to play in rush, Hazard Zone menus lead to other menus. In-game UI sucks too.
    * The framerate is so bad that it gives me a headache.

This Tarkov style in Battlefield is great. I love this game mode... when it works. We spent an hour trying to find a 4th member to join because everytime a 4th joined, they left and we got stuck in the que once more. This Game mode mixes AI Bots with players similiar to how pubg plays. I feel this gane isn't worth the $60, especially missing things like a campaign which would be fine but, it really seems like that time didn't go into the game with how it's currently released.

That said I have had a few minutes of gameplay here and there where I enjoyed the game. None of those minutes of gameplay have amounted to anything though as getting into the game is a force. Since the game launched it has been plagued with “error loading persistent data” messages. Despite all my best efforts I haven’t been able to solve this issue. I found that the time of day determines whether or not you will get into the game from the main screen. If you try to login at 1am you might get it, however anything much later than that you might as well give up. I figured dice would make it a priority to fix this issue but the latest patch didn’t address it at all. That is perhaps the most frustrating part for me is even when I want to play, the game has other plans. Furthermore the game for the most part it is total trash. The maps are large which I like, but they are mostly open and when you get caught you are absolutely screwed. If you don’t have a tank or a helicopter your odds of survival are miniscual. The graphics at least on the Xbox one, leave something to be desired as well. Comparatively the graphics from BF4 are leaps and bounds ahead of 2042 which is saying something. The game play is prohibitive to getting large numbers of kills due to the fact that it is so open, lack of cover and places to be make to difficult to move around and find people. This game was clearly rushed, and I feel like a fool for buying it. Don’t waste your time and hard earned money, it’s simply not worth it, I myself may go out and purchase a gallon of paint to splash against the wall and watch dry instead. I suspect it will be more entertaining and happen faster than trying to get past the main screen.… Expand

Добавьте вы ептыть очко оборудования и сделайте ОДНОГО персонажа и редактор для создания внешности. И каждый себе напихает чего хочет ему в рюкзак. Нет, надо было пять лет рисовать кучу моделей с говноанимациями и писать им кринжовейшие фразочки. Подгружаются они, видимо, тоже не из скачанных 50+ Гб игры, а из сети, ибо регулярно превращаются в кучи говна с глазами.
    Карт на старте мало, и они огромные. Любителям камерного порева и тактических действий придется несладко, тут никакие приемы не работают: вы заняли точку, обеспечили удержание, но вам через минуту воткнут хер в спину, ибо объехать все поле боя по кромочке и приехать в тыл легче легкого. А когда у вас в команде 10 снайперов и 20 мудил с крюками, никакие командирские навыки не помогут. Точек для захвата на картах мало - игра из планомерного сражения по фронтам и движения за точки превращается в беспорядочные марш-броски туда-сюда на 10 км.

    Хазард Зон - это отдельный рассказ. Из общего времени, затраченного на режим, вы будете 80% проводить на экранах загрузки (серьезно, там бл ЧЕТЫРЕ экрана загрузки). Ибо до 15 уровня:
    1. вникнуть в смысл происходящего не выйдет (нет обучения)
    2. объяснить тиммейтам, что не надо хватать носители раньше времени (вас выследят по ним и выебут более опытные игроки), не выйдет - нету чата
    3. оружие у вас будет херовое базовое
    4. пока вы нуб, будете всем пороть игру
    5. когда вы поймете, как действовать (не хватайте вы блин эти носители сразу же, через 7 минут нападает на всей карте вагон их и маленькая тележка!! лучше трахайте другие команды), у вас регулярно будет команда нубасов.
    Итог: раз в 10 забросок вы залезете на эвак транспорт, да и то или случайно, или если с вами в команде ПК-мышкодрочер, который раунд затащит. Ни разу не видел ни у кого серию эвакуаций больше, чем 2, а это о многом говорит.
    Из контента - можно шмотки спецам менять. Шмотки убогие, все одинаковые. Можно ШАПКУ надеть другого цвета)))) АХАХАХАХ, шапку блять другого цвета, вы это долго придумывали?
    На железную собаку-бота запрыгнуть и покататься нельзя. То есть, по стенам ездить - можно, предметы сквозь стены брать - можно, с крюком ракообразничать - пожалуйста, летать на вингсьюте через полкарты прыгнув с высоты моего члена - да какие вопросы?!, а вот на собаку запрыгнуть - это ж блеать нарушит все законы физики!!

    Battlefield 2042 is DICE’s most average Battlefield yet, one that despite boasting two new modes to discover in Hazard Zone and Battlefield Portal, clearly forgot about the core of the experience. With some weird design decisions, plenty of bugs, and more crashes than a destruction derby; the future of Battlefield, this is not. It’s still fun, but we hoped for so much more.
