Sep 9, 2023This is no longer a battlefield, it feels like a copy of CoD that someone stole. Tested on Ps5, Xbox Series S & X and PC
-
Aug 28, 2023Dice ruined this franchise. I am extremely disappointed that the way they treated us games like 2nd hand garbage then started to blame other games for their flop. It has fun moments though.

May 16, 2023Después de Battlefield 1 y Battlefront 2, no entiendo como Dice ha podido lanzar esto: Roto, lleno de fallos visuales y poco inspirado. Sin modo campaña, con un multijugador con mapas ridiculamente grandes y mal diseñados. Una decepción en todos los aspectos.

From Samuel fletcher -
Feb 3, 2023Ignore all the EA fanboys that are saying the game is playable. Both EA fanboys and DICE can happily swallow my cum.

Nov 23, 2022Game become better after an year. Keep going Dice !
Main problem as Xbox players is that there's no Xbox player match available while cross play off.. fingers crossed -
Oct 13, 2022Downgrade from bfv, bf1, bf4, bf3, or any other edition since it is god-awful
-
Oct 11, 2022Mix and match hot mess. Only the name is battlefield gameplay is terrible bugs and glitches. It's like usual battlefields clone done by indie Devs. certainly not and AAA game

Jul 3, 2022Honest to God, I will NEVER EVER pre order ANY game from DICE and any other studio under EA. Including the Dead Space Remastered version. They are not make video games any more. That are packaging it and use it for SCAM. We should file complaint / lawsuit to business agency for their DECEVING act. This is NOT American!!!
-
Jun 22, 2022Compared to older titles there is so much lacking in this game
The amount of core features missing is absurd
For a more detailed list i would suggest visitting the subreddits of battlefield 2042 and search for the top post of all time -

Dec 10, 2021When new Battlefield coming out? This game is rubbish. The worst Battlefield game I've ever played
-
May 18, 2022what can i say that others have already said. This game is in a super poor state. Forced to play in cross-play which im no fan of due to PC players/cheaters.
-
Apr 26, 2022Malisimo! No compren esta basura de juego. Esto es un insulto para el jugador y para el amante de BF.

Apr 26, 2022Back battlefield 4. BF 2042 is sh**t back my money. Maps with no buildings. Runner simulator game
-
Nov 13, 2021This is honestly one of the worst games I have had the displeasure of playing. Good thing the trial is free.
Most of the things either don’t work at all or are seriously glitched out.
Getting stuck in the environment, fps issues. Flickering screens left and right. Packet bursts and lag galore. I thought Cod Vanguard was bad, but BF2042 takes the cake.
Specialists? What is this this, overwatch? -

Mar 4, 2022Trash can. You dont buy. DICE, EA are useless company. You are best idiot in the world.
-
Feb 25, 2022This game is just a joke and i want my money back EA!!! I don't think anymore that you can save this game because it’s just too bad in nearly every single aspect. For me one of the worst AAA Games in history!

Feb 23, 2022Barely any positives lmao, what even is this garbage? Shameful. Anyone who paid at least a single cent for this trash deserves a refund. I payed no money and still feel ripped off and want my time spent on it back.

Feb 8, 2022Vanguard is bad. I thought that BF will shut cod mouth. but they did such a big mistake with publish this game. i had fun ok but it wasnt worth 70$. Performance is bad. Grahpic is fine but i feel that im playing in alpha version. they tried to make something else but they were lost in this. sad dice

Feb 4, 2022I feel scammed by EA. This is legitimately one of the worst games I've ever played. It's endlessly buggy, boring, and lack the most basic expected features of the modern FPS. It I could give a score below zero, I would.

Jan 27, 2022This game is disastrously bad. Its both a year away from being ready to play and fundamentally broken with terrible design decisions.
-
Jan 18, 2022Just awful, buggy, laggy, bad experience. Developer doesn't want to listen games community. Wouldn't recommend to anyone, I literally wasted my money, this was the last time I bought bf. The real BF ended at BF 4.

Jan 3, 2022A complete disaster, this game is not playable. You have to go through lots of bugs, glitches, errors. There is a huge lack of content, the soundtrack is awful and the portal mode is broken... I've played Battlefield 1,2,3,4,5 and Bad Company 2 and this is the worst of them.
-
Jan 2, 2022Technically as sound as a dumpster fire. Impossible to play a game without running into some kind of issues. Don’t even get me started on missing basic features such as a map, voice chat (for a cooperative multiplayer game at that!), a scoreboard, and countless other things. This cash grab has erased battlefield’s identity. Save your money.

Dec 20, 2021I Gave this game a 2 only for portal mode because of some bf3, bc2 maps that I missed.
Everything else is don’t even bother -
Dec 20, 2021Я отдал 90$ что бы начать играть раньше. Игра вылетала через раз. Вы не успели все отремонтировать и уже сделали скидку на 30%. Месяца не прошло...

Dec 13, 2021RIP battlefield. This game has some great graphics. This game is a hero shooter. This game has vast empty spaces. This game is not battlefield.
-
Dec 11, 2021This game it just, makes me sad…. On every level. It’s wild to me that they have Battlefield 4 as a the perfect blueprint on what mistakes to not make, and the things that worked, yet they take so many steps backwards… I am so disappointed, I really hope the next game in the series can bring it back to its former glory.

Dec 11, 2021Pior BF que já existiu , além de ser horrível de caro ainda é todo cagado , cheio de bugs gameplay chata , modos de jogo fracos e sem conteúdo.

Dec 9, 2021The Xbox Series X version of this game looks and feels worse than a free to play game on the original Xbox One. I've been playing Battlefield games for over a decade and this is, by far, the worst launched BF game I've ever experienced.

Dec 9, 2021Please don’t waste your money on this game like I did.. Worst BF game ever made hands down.. BF is dead
-
Dec 7, 2021This is what a game looks like when it looses it's soul. Sad that this franchise has fallen so far from it's roots and what made the game unique. Now it's just like any other copypaste hero shooter but just worse.
Hopefully some day there are wise and passionate people in the decision making department of this frachise who knows what fans of the series wants and how to deliver it -

Dec 4, 2021This does NOT feel like a Battlefield game. I was excited for it, but it turns out they just wanted to push out a turd that feels like too much like COD to get those players instead of making it for BF fans. Sooo many missing features, only 7 maps at launch, and way too many bugs. Only consider this if there is a discount in like 4 months when they fix this.
-
Dec 3, 2021I feel like it should be a criminal matter to sell
Games to people at 100 + dollar and they suck this much. Why no scoreboard, why the class system that doesnt make sense. I am sad and angry to have wasted 100 dollar on a game that is nothing like the reviewers u paid handsomly said it is. Misleading and disappointing -
Dec 3, 2021I have seen games run better on a toaster, this series is going backwards and is an alpha state and that's a stretch, no amount of update can save it, so many core problems the devs don't know what they are doing or EA is forcing them to make this poor "game" just to milk monitization from kids who don't know any better. MODERN GAMING at its finest.

Dec 3, 2021Unplayable. When I try to play the game I get constant error messages. And the few times I have got on I can't pick my loadout. Long time fan and I hate this game in its current state.
-
Dec 3, 2021Appalling design choices, not a fun or immersive experience. Such a disappointment.
-
Dec 2, 2021Imagine you buy a brand new phone and find out that it doesn't turn on. you bring you phone back to the phone store to get it fixed. But every time you do, they only fix one thing at a time. Now also imagine the phone is completely broken and you spend ungodly amounts of time to get it fixed,also imagine you spent a small fortune to get it before everyone else
-
Dec 2, 2021Crashes Xbox Series X frequently. Squads and loadouts don’t matter. Few guns and poor map design. MTX business model in an unfinished full price game. Have been playing all of the battlefield games since bf2 and have been an avid fan of the franchise. Wasn’t a huge fan of 1 or V, but I had high hopes for this game. Hugely disappointed, save your money.

Dec 1, 2021This game has no potential. It has zero replay ability. I played for 2 hours. Instantly bored on the same 2 and only 2 game modes. Absolute **** No team death match? No domination? No rush? No nothing? The portal mode is just old games with modern graphics. Trash

Nov 30, 2021This game is the worst of the series. There is no balance, there is no opitimization, there is no content. There are many bugs, glitches, freezes, crashes, fps drops. If u want to waste your money and be mad at you - go ahead --> buy battlefield 2042. As XSX player - usually i cannot finish even one round. All the time crashes, freezes, slide shows. Its totally unplayable.
-
Nov 30, 2021Unfinished. Not fun. Horrible. Doesn’t even look as good as I would have expected.

Nov 30, 2021Returned - sorry Dice/EA, but this is really a bad game. Back to BF 4 and 1.

Nov 27, 2021Absolute trash. Worst BF game I’ve ever played. Highly recommend not to buy. If you did, ask for your money back. The fact that publishers and developers can get away with releasing an unfinished game is pathetic. They’re following in the footsteps of Medal Of Honor. I’d be surprised if this doesn’t kill the franchise.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 30, 2024Destruction is still cool, and in the end I have to give the creators credit for the fact that the much marketing-washed akedo has its moments. Everything else that made a good Battlefield is completely missing, and that chase for record-breaking size or player count is really a poor substitute for well-designed maps, rich content in the form of game modes, and certainly no substitute for the original class system that the gameplay has always relied on in the first place. [Issue#317]

Dec 6, 2021Battlefield 2042 is a huge disappointment for gamers and the Battlefield franchise. Had this been the product of an indie developer, then this might be a different story as it would be understandable how a game like this could be the product of an independent studio that doesn’t have enormous corporate backing. Instead, EA pumped more resources into creating a CGI film that acts as the only real source of storyline context than ensuring the game was going to live up to the enormous amount of hype they were trying to create. I hate saying such negative things in my reviews, but when a game developer can’t be bothered to even try and live up to it’s own legacy, then I have to call it as I see it and for that very reason, I don’t recommend this game. Not even the nostalgia or temptation of ‘Battlefield Portal’ is enough to save this game from itself.
-
Dec 3, 2021Battlefield 2042 absolutely should have been pushed back by EA and DICE to some point in 2022. Instead, the version of this game that is currently available has been virtually unplayable for me at times since first releasing. Even beyond this, though, some of the key design changes that DICE has made in Battlefield 2042 don't feel for the better. Rather than improving on the core Battlefield experience that fans loved with Battlefield 3, 4, or Bad Company 2, 2042 is a bloated husk of its former self that is trying to recapture some semblance of its previous glory. As a fan that has been playing this series for well over a decade, Battlefield 2042 is a massive disappointment that I struggle to think is even worth saving.
