    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.

    1) Too many bugs

The maps are awful, forcing you to constantly run through barren environments for minutes at a time accomplishing nothing just to get picked off by some sniper you didn’t even se or an overpowered vehicle. The infantry game is a nightmare with all these problems.

    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!"

    Its a complete woke joke... its like Battlefield 5 "if you dont like it dont buy it.. my 13 year old daughter spoke to me and she said scores are toxic and I listened" situation all over again.    … Expand

    Worst Battlefield I ever played. Everything feels so bad in this game. The maps are empty; the guns feel clunky; the movements are heavy; and the game lacks identity.

    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.

    Let's see.....DUMPSTER FIRE. First of all, the shooting mechanics suck. I don't know how many times I have had an enemy in my sights at point blank range, fired off success shots that all missed and then the target kills me with a single shot.
    Secondly, glitching when running, moving forward then being dragged back to where I started or not moving and being bounced 100 feet away.    Let's see.....DUMPSTER FIRE.

    Worst battlefield I’ve ever played. So far from what we expected. The game is broken in a million different ways. The developers are in over their heads. Top to bottom from the game play to the sounds effects… it’s awful. I could go on and on, they simply ruined it. Another failed launch, which is really common lately in the gaming world. It’s robbery.

    Definitivamente me voy a comprar- este juego- va redimir a la saga y que buen trabajo hicieron los de DICE y EA espero que no cambien su mentalidad en los siguientes años.

    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

    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.
