battlefield-2042

[gusty jasper]

The stadium is fun sometimes but the city is underwhelming

[echo yew]

Orbital, Manifest and Renewal are all fun maps

Hourglass and Kaleidoscope should have been more urban city maps with destruction not an empty desert and a random city park

and then FUCK discarded

[fiery shoal]

skyscraper fights are always fun af to me

[quartz jay]

have u seen hourglass concept? idk what happened

[radiant prism]

I've had some fun fights on the cargo ships too

[onyx oar]

That's where I hang out on hourglass, it's by far the most fun part of the map

[arctic grove]

I feel like the destruction of maps from battlefield 2042 are a downgrade from battlefield 5 and 4

[onyx oar]

looks like a fun map, too bad 😦

[radiant prism]

The destruction feels about on par with BF4 minus major levolution to me

[gusty jasper]

Orbital is actually my favorite map, it actually has a jungle with height variant that separates the 2 combat zones. It really does a decent job at creating a playstyle for infantry

[dry raven]

They really aren't, if you take the time to look around at all the things you can destroy and the detail of the destruction

[quartz jay]

its so pretty at night too

[small comet]

anyone else able to get intto a breakthough game today? just tried 3 times

[echo yew]

i really thought Kaleidoscope was gonna be siege of shangai 2 or even downtown verdansk from Modern Warfare ground war

[brittle forge]

They are 100%, which is weird cause the game is capable of crazy destruction based on the Portal maps

[onyx oar]

tho I gotta say discarded and manifest on breakthrough are a blast to play

[wide shore]

No such thing as a spawn kill? Let me show you this piece of history.

[onyx oar]

They need to reimplement the spawnsystem from this game, I remember them fixing it and it really worked well

[echo yew]

hourglass should be on sandstorm mode 24/7 tbh, also the map needs to be the damn city not the desert

[wide shore]

Damn. That’s actually sick

[brittle forge]

The objective spawns are really bad a lot of the time. They put you in front of enemies in an open field if it’s at all contested

[radiant prism]

When the sandstorm first hits on Hourglass is cool as shit though

[wide shore]

I still think Hourglass is one of the better maps.

[gusty jasper]

Or being ran over by hovercraft

[quartz jay]

looks even better here

[arctic grove]

He was probably charging to reach objective faster and you spawned at the wrong time, plus that’s battlefield 1 not 2042

[radiant prism]

That wall of sand making visibility incredibly chaotic for a solid 30 seconds is insane

[weary karma]

That's so sick

[radiant prism]

Seeing that for the first time was such a cool "oh shit" moment

[onyx oar]

infantry on the ground: wow so cool
jet pilots: violent screenshaking

[arctic grove]

I think concept art is good

[wide shore]

Hollyyyyyy sshhiiittt

[echo yew]

i have the slight bit of hope that BF2042 launched with an incomplete version of hourglass and that we're getting the real hourglass from the concept art in an update

[quartz jay]

I truley hope for a massive rehaul for some of the maps in the future

[radiant prism]

Concept art rarely reflects what gets put into an actual game

See: BFV concept art

[brittle forge]

I thought the dark lighting version of Hourglass was going to be a random daytime setting and not exclusive to the sandstorm that only lasts like a min

[quartz jay]

hourglass is one of the most boring maps till u get to the city and the stadium its so empty and copy pasted

[weary karma]

my thoughts exactly

[wide shore]

Yeah, I mean it’s clear that they went a different direction with Hourglass. For better or for worse. It still looks stunning during the sandstorm.

[echo yew]

it's like they didn't even try

[still vault]

That image might be pretty, but not as pretty as getting one of the APV thingies with mines

[proud verge]

i heard that they are going to alter layouts of maps in future and also add night versions this still could end up being possible

[arctic grove]

EA didnt want to pay up for the detailed maps

[brittle forge]

I love that the bolte basically replaced the hovercraft one for one in terms of being problematic for the game

[wide shore]

I still wish every map had a night variant. One day

[quartz jay]

this week update 4 I think itll be more balance changes

[brittle forge]

Super fast vehicle that’s a killing machine that has a lot of armor

[native jacinth]

i was hyped for the fully destructible village on hourglass, too bad it turned out to be a shithole lmao

[radiant prism]

I've actually had some really intense firefights in that village

[wide shore]

Af least they didn’t lie about it.

[silk surge]

Any word on getting to know our overall KD in the near future?

[quartz jay]

either this week or next week is update #4

[brittle forge]

The bolte is not as fast as maneuverable as the hovercraft but still

[arctic grove]

Next update add a fucking base in the middle of the empty desert.

[native jacinth]

unlike progression 😔

[radiant prism]

Had one game where my team started from one end of village and had a whole breakthrough-style push all the way through to the stadium, it was intense and super fun

[fiery solar]

holy what is this

[wide shore]

I mean, personally I’m really enjoying working towards tier one stuff. I just got Angel tier 1 last game. And I’m 300 kills off getting the PKP tier 1.

[tall dome]

i had the same condor all game once and my gunner was going apeshit i got 71 assists

[quartz jay]

hourglass concept

[fiery solar]

looks like a real image

[wide shore]

Good condor pilots are hard to come by

[radiant prism]

I've decided I'm gonna dedicate myself to getting Dozer Tier 1

[frail harbor]

Condor is fun af imo I love just piloting it for people

[wide shore]

You sir are stronger than I.

[radiant prism]

Do I have to post the F-35 clip again?

[pliant knot]

C5 drone should stay

[carmine dawn]

@radiant prism I wanted to get dozer t1 so bad but it seems like impossible to get, would take absolutely forever

[brittle forge]

I will give hourglass the nod that it’s one of the only maps that actually kind of fits the backstory of the game’s world being in a climate crisis

[radiant prism]

Shield boi my beloved

[quartz jay]

Its horrid dont

[radiant prism]

Why not

[summer scroll]

THE BEST WAY TO DO IT

[wide shore]

I don’t personally use Dozer. But I did get his nice black and yellow skin yesterday.

[quartz jay]

u turn SUPER slow with the shield idk if its a bug or intended it just feels wonky

[summer scroll]

is camp the elevators and the ziplines

[pliant knot]

Tier 1 skin is not worth it, the mastery 4 skin is way better on Dozer

[radiant prism]

blasphemy

[onyx oar]

Dozer = Batman

[brittle forge]

Kaleidoscope, renewal, and manifest don’t really show anything that indicates the world is in serious trouble thematically

[carmine dawn]

Are there any fast methods to leveling dozer mastery?

[radiant prism]

Just get a lot of shield kills, try to flank often

[proud verge]

this will be the only thing dice reads and next dozer will have a Batman skin

[quartz jay]

only play defense breakthrough on orbital, renewal and kaleidoscope

[carmine dawn]

Fun

[arctic grove]

THERE IS NO WAY THIS WAS THE CONCEPT......WHY IS IT NOT THE MAP OMG

[radiant prism]

Stick to more CQC areas, close and kill

[onyx oar]

good good

[mental finch]

Okay, I actually want other people’s opinions, because this is something where the majority is what really rules the decision. Was nerfing the time it takes for smoke grenades to activate a good or bad call? Let alone how much they Nerf’d em, which was a fucking lot, I never really see too many people using them, and they only give you two at max, so I don’t understand how they could’ve ever been broken. But again I do want to know other peoples opinion, because I can definitely understand if people were running into stupid situations.

[radiant prism]

Concept art rarely makes it to the full game

[proud verge]

but you can only run smoke grenades and they turn off ability to kill

[arctic grove]

But its so cool :((

[radiant prism]

agreed

[quartz jay]

im just wondering why the devs silent nerfed the mp28 and never told us

[onyx oar]

''batman doesnt kill'' HA what a joke

[carmine dawn]

@brittle forge in 2042 the world is in like a recovery state I think, the wars are breaking out in some areas that look clean like south Korea (kaleidoscope) cause of the political involvement. I guess they did a lot to try and make the city look nice (also renewal I think use to look nice like the green side before the collapse)

[quartz jay]

If I see alex Im asking

[arctic grove]

I think this game will make a huge comback with the right decisions

[onyx oar]

We ain't seeing him for a long time not in these trying times lol

[proud verge]

depends on timeline

[radiant prism]

Kaleidoscope and Manifest are both mostly political targets yeah (not to mention the fact that both Kaleidoscope and Renewal both have massive fires off in the distance from ongoing conflict)

[scenic tartan]

WHEN Is the bolte 30mm nerf and the "frozen in place while being hit with vehicle cannons" being removed

[carmine dawn]

@radiant prism yeah true. Idk I get really into story in games and even like this one where there no campaign and barely anything to go off of, it's still super interesting to me

[onyx oar]

They already got our main man Vince on it so there is hope to see some big changes in the future for the better of the game

[brittle forge]

Have you guys seen the flocks of birds helicopters on some of the maps? Shit’s hilarious

[carmine dawn]

@brittle forge yes also a sign the world is recovering, the annual helicopter migration

[onyx oar]

T-posing helicopters*

[quartz jay]

i really hope the littlebird gets out of the transport category it fucks ur team on some maps lol

[frail harbor]

It’s the Catalina wine mixer

[brittle forge]

Weapons to surpass metal gear

[mental finch]

I hope they at least speed up the smoke Grenade activation time a little bit, throwing a smoke grenade to revive takes far too long to even be effective, which when you’re reviving a group, a smoke grenade was always my go to in the past

[quasi torrent]

MEMORY LEAKING, GAME CRASHING, GAME MINIMIZING. WHEN ARE WE GETTING ACKNOWLEGMENT????

[summer scroll]

i think what it is like renewal the russians took over without any effort to fight back then the us is going in to free it or take it back thats why it all clean and nice

[carmine dawn]

Yeah I really like renewal, it almost like two maps halfway through a breakthrough game

[summer scroll]

yea one sand and the other a nice field

[spiral folio]

the worst change I think is the harbor map, where it goes from like baren container-scape to jungle warfare

[proud verge]

should just say the truth it is the America, Mexico border

[quartz jay]

im honestly glad DRUNKKZ3 is active everyday on twitter that man is a savior for this game

[mental finch]

It’s one of those maps that’s great on Breakthrough, and then I get very frustrated by it on conquest most of the time due to the lack of cover during the extended times when you’re on foot. It’s a good map in concept, and great in breakthrough, the full conquest version just needed a bit more work in my eyes.

[split osprey]

Thank god

[frail harbor]

Renewal should be a world war z game mode

[brittle forge]

I didn’t think footstep audio was that bad but then again everything is always exploding so

[spiral folio]

i can't imagine renewal on conquest, the mode is so dated it doesn't even fit some maps entirely

[native jacinth]

pretty much all of the updates released now are like "why didn't the game launch with this"

[brittle forge]

Better late than never but yeah

[acoustic shell]

can we talk about VCAR , the useless specialist RAO and his favorite GVT45 that have bullet velocity of shotgun slug ?

[hasty igloo]

Does somebody know what the subsonic bullets do? Thanks in advance👍

[surreal crystal]

Buff Rao

[mental finch]

Waaait, am I thinking of Hourglass? Which map has the stadium?

[surreal crystal]

Bullet tracing

[spiral folio]

think that's hourglass

[acoustic shell]

@hasty igloo it will hide the 3d warning and bullet tracing , perfect for flanking

[odd raft]

anyone having lots of crashes?

[brittle forge]

Hourglass has the stadium

[surreal crystal]

Nope !! Fine on my side

[brittle forge]

Renewal is the map with the big wall between desert/farmland

[green breach]

@hasty igloo like in real life? Well supposed to prevent the sound barrier from breaking by slowing the bullet down. So in game really quiet

[surreal crystal]

Nice one

[mental finch]

Okay, see, I almost love that map, The stadium area specifically. But anytime I have to go to another objective I’m usually just annoyed. Yes @brittle forge , I was confusing the desert side of renewal with the entire map of hourglass. I like the green side of renewal with the buildings and such, but the desert side of renewal is pretty boring on CQ.

[green breach]

@crisp ferry apparently getting one. But for the better probably not

Well there is halo

[gusty jasper]

I'm just waiting on MW2 at this point

[surreal crystal]

Halo is super fun actually

[green breach]

Be way better once we get forge

[mental finch]

I’m pretty hyped for Infinite. I’m sad that my “Halo 6 and BF6 will make the year” meme I was pushing didn’t play out…. At least half of it seems like it will though.

[surreal crystal]

We still have one year of vanguard

[gusty jasper]

If anything cod is good at, is sticking to their core

[green breach]

Halo gonna win the shooter reward

[gusty jasper]

Inb4 bf2042 best shooter of the year

[surreal crystal]

I doubt that haha

[swift quartz]

is the tv 2x scope removed from the svk?

[green breach]

[gusty jasper]

I don't even know what award I would even give to this game

[mental finch]

Most unfinished game of the year with a Triple A budget?

[gusty jasper]

Maybe like most anticipated?

[green breach]

More like most constipated

[surreal crystal]

Which was ahead of development schedule apparently

[gusty jasper]

I mean knowing that the next game is leaked to be a hero centric shooter, that's not inaccurate

[green breach]

It will be if it cant be turned around

[wet cove]

any possible fix to the attachment not unlocking even tho meeting criteria

[surreal crystal]

[mental finch]

To be fair, this wouldn’t be the franchise killer if the next game got back on track. But since they’re saying it’s going to be a full on hero shooter, this might as well be the franchise killer.

[green breach]

Ya uninstalling and playing something else. Game is broken

[gusty jasper]

Anyways it was fun while it lasted, Battlefield.

[surreal crystal]

Play halo g

[wet cove]

guys come on... bf2042 hands down best 2021 game

[fiery shoal]

halo infinite just proves that people want what they have been playing since the early 2000's, just with better graphics

[gusty jasper]

They won't. Literally higher ups from Respawn and COD are replacing the directing roles of the franchise

[proud verge]

If dice Would step up like Hello games Did with no mans sky they could make this game amazing

[wet cove]

easily goty

[stark cipher]

Frr

[green breach]

@mental finch so battlefield heros 2?

[odd ledge]

I rather play battlefield heroes then 2042 now

[stark cipher]

Battlefield heroes 2 sound fun to me

[surreal crystal]

I dont think so chief !! At best they will drop the support for this game and work on new one just like how they did with bf V

[mental finch]

I’d rather 2143, BF heroes at this point would remind me of Fortnite, and you better already know they’d treat it like Fortnite too.

[green breach]

@crisp ferry so tiny ass maps. Welp battlefield is dead to me now

Granted halo is like that but yhey did it from the beginning

[odd ledge]

4 million bought bf2042 70% dropped after a week

[tall dome]

DID YALL HEAR ABOUT THAT PS5 DEV

[green breach]

How many tefunded though

[surreal crystal]

Omg !! Please it be fake or false news 😔

[sullen inlet]

https://medal.tv/clips/74468950/61ae4fa517d90e71d12
This spawn THO :DDDDDDDD

[proud verge]

Unfortunately i know you are right but hopefully they listen this time around to fans

[green breach]

At least keep the big maps. Not 2042 big but you know what i mean

[mental finch]

But honestly we all have to remember, the guys that made the heroes gimmick, and the 2142 gimmick work…. No longer work for DICE. I still feel like EA is what keeps these guys from being able to finish games, same as the old DICE, but this game sort of proves that they don’t want to be like the old DICE, cause they think changing everything is better than expanding upon what works.

I wish I wasn’t going to say this, but I feel like we’re never going to get a Battlefield game with old school classes ever again.

[fossil trench]

You can’t refund on PSN

[split osprey]

70% player decline is not permanent, and the numbers are going up.

[spiral folio]

well you agreed to pay for the license to use a game... sooo no you got use of it

[gusty jasper]

Honestly if they're gonna kill the franchise just double down at this point. Make the game only team deathmatch, give the specialists ultimate abilities

[fossil trench]

You can’t refund after you’ve installed the game

[surreal crystal]

Ur last lines hurt my friend

[green breach]

Ill still give each battlefield a chance. Thanks to steam refunds.

[spiral folio]

refunds on software are actually a pretty new thing. Tons of places wouldn't allow refunds on software but it's mostly due to people probably copying it

[surreal crystal]

Time to inhale copium

[split osprey]

Some of these people are too young to know that.

[green breach]

Sony sometimes allow refunds if game is horrendously broken

Or as a one time thing.

[sullen inlet]

2042 isnt that broken tbh

[gusty jasper]

Listen, I've been to Blockbuster

[mental finch]

Think about it, this game literally made that a Legacy feature. IN BATTLEFIELD, CLASSES ARE NOW A LEGACY FEATURE…..

[sullen inlet]

its just not enough content and the content we have is shit

[gusty jasper]

Oh yeah it's not like we've had an update that completely broke mouse input

[spiral folio]

I mean.. I literally CANT play 2042 right now because the opening menu doesn't respond to ANY input but I'm not gonna refund it

[sullen inlet]

AHHAAHAHAHHAHA

[gusty jasper]

[green breach]

Rember VHS vs Betamax thing? Betamax was better but VHS allowed porn. So we know which one won

[odd ledge]

Battlefield is dead in my eyes at least. Cause since many years battlefield gone wrong direction with elite class etc etc this was just a another step into hero mode with all specialist. Everyone should feel they are s gold medal player with no scoreboard.. bla bla... Politic correctness and gender bla bla bla...

Dead serie now for me, i haven't played now with their skins u can get through battlepass or whatever it is... And Santa skin. Probably won't touch the game after i heard that got in lol.

[surreal crystal]

The list goes on and on

[split osprey]

If you think 2042 is dead you're just plain ignorant.

[sullen inlet]

I cant believe they nerfed the magnum revolver, such a shit now

[arctic grove]

Is there a way to change gear based on map?

[spiral folio]

VHS also stored longer videos

[gusty jasper]

"gender" what?

[odd ledge]

Yeah u go Santa

[fossil trench]

Has the vehicle deployment been bugged for anyone? I have to do it twice because it bugs out the first time

[arctic grove]

As in, change the skin based on which map you will play?

[spiral folio]

VHS players were cheaper to produce as well

[surreal crystal]

Its super weird to see same operators on both sides who in the actual hell made that decision lmao

[green breach]

@spiral folio knew there was something else. But ya betamax quality was way better

[split osprey]

See you can't even have an actual conversation. Thanks for proving my point.

[mental finch]

I’d rather them remove the scoreboard than start fucking with the gameplay tbh. But yes, you’re right, them removing the scoreboard from BF is one of the….just…. stupidest things I’ve ever seen in my gaming experience.

[brittle forge]

Even COD got that right (well in MW19, anyway)

[arctic grove]

I think it won't matter as soon as we get more face covering helmets and stuff.

[odd ledge]

I did see your point. But you are a blind man for me. Cause u didn't see my point that u didn't wanna understand.

[split osprey]

Elite classes were overpowered trash and a stain on Battlefield 1.

[spiral folio]

CED disks were huuuge and then the players were really accident prone and delicate

[surreal crystal]

Mw2019 was a turning point for cod !!

[arctic grove]

I rather they remove the cringy voicelines

[idle crater]

i see your point its just bad

[green breach]

@brittle forge minus that crappy highway of death caused by russians. Like really? It was US

[spiral folio]

I have a broken CED player I found and it makes accidental glitch art. It's hillarious

[sacred marten]

only way this is going to get more players is to have it on sale for $10

[surreal crystal]

I wish they do that asap !!

[split osprey]

Yeah it's one of the worst points I have ever seen made on here, and that's just awful.

[green breach]

@sacred marten ya where my sale at?

[spiral folio]

... it also ruins the disk each time we use it sooo performance art :V

[gusty jasper]

Bro you literally just mentioned "political correctness" in a criticism of battlefield, just stop

[odd ledge]

U probably would said the same at launch of BFV. Most of u guys are the white Knight for Dice and the game. ;)

[arctic grove]

Season 1 comes next year and I assume it will bring a large amount of cosmetics.

[brittle forge]

counterpoint: You could bayonet charge all of them to instantly kill them and the trench raider was fun as fuck

[split osprey]

Yes what a genius take. Wow applauds

[green breach]

@spiral folio insert Justin Beiber cds in it

[idle crater]

u couldnt be more wrong im a bf4 fanatic and hated bf1 and bfv didnt even buy them

[brittle forge]

i’m just talking about different operators for different factions bro lol

[spiral folio]

BF5 wasn't bad on launch, when it got re-balanced it got bad though

[split osprey]

And they were still overpowered garbage that was a stain on the entire game. Hero class pickups. What a joke.

[odd ledge]

Haha love u white knights u keep fighting to survive with 2042 ❤️

[gusty jasper]

What? I literally hate this game

[surreal crystal]

[idle crater]

no we literally just find full matches in 10 seconds while ur seething in ur actual dead games

[ornate skiff]

BF1 was great but BFV was not

[ornate charm]

i fuckin hate it too but i keep wanting to play it :D

[pseudo grail]

I wish dice could add more Remasterd maps on portal

[spiral folio]

the people who mention the like social justice or politics in regards to bf5 are referencing 1 idiot executive that said 1 thing before he left the company anyway. It's moronic to keep acting like that mattered

[lime crystal]

New warzone map tomorrow and i don't see 2042 staying relevant...

[native jacinth]

isn't it funny how they copied it from cod but forgot about the good parts

[gusty jasper]

aside from random recoil, BFV had some of the best fucking gameplay in the franchise

[stark cipher]

Same as ALL chat and classes

[split osprey]

I do especially after they release the 64 player CQ and Breakthrough. A lot of people hate Warzone cuz BR's are trash.

[green breach]

Warzone map tomorrow is for people who bought that awful cod game

[pseudo grail]

Ngl portal is doing better than the actual main game 😂

[arctic grove]

TBH yeah, matchmaking is super fast. People think they need a million online to play 128man matches lol

[slow rover]

this game fucking sucks

[ornate skiff]

lol

[gusty jasper]

I thought portal was dead

[slow rover]

my brain is after playing this game

[idle crater]

legit morons man and im not joking it takes me forever to fill a 12 man lobby for TDM in cod

[spiral folio]

the lack of cross-team chat is kinda lame i'll admit, most people used it for trash talk, but I can't taunt enemy snipers anymore

[ornate skiff]

Yes, portal is doing very good

[split osprey]

I love seeing all the tears of people who can't get 5 kills in a match. All the bottom tier players coming to say the game sucks. It's a beautiful thing.

[idle crater]

bring back all chat

[spiral folio]

or even thumbs up a good shot etc

[lime crystal]

For you its ok but the guys that want cash it isn't good

[brittle forge]

I mean the single player literally had some “progressive” rewriting of history in it too but yeah mp-wise it was just that guy saying dumb shit in response to criticism of female soldiers in a WW2 game

[gusty jasper]

Also the class play is amazing. Seeing medics smoke off downed teammates and Rez is just the coolest shit ever

[spiral folio]

just make people who want "cross team chat" sign a waiver or something

[green breach]

When new warzone map coming for peope who didnt buy vangaurd

[arctic grove]

I literally read a review the other day that said the bullets were going around enemies. 😄

[pseudo grail]

THE REAL QUESTION IS WHAT HAPPENED TO BATTLEFIELD ?

[split osprey]

You guys should practice in solo with beginner bots instead of claiming the game is dead.

[arctic grove]

how's the Xbox one s version of this game doin

[spiral folio]

like "I certify I am not a crybaby and won't whine to support when my feelings get hurt by enemy players" [agree]

[native jacinth]

"We’re definitely building on the work that we did for BFV, keeping the feedback on those mechanics in mind while we added/improved the feature set." - core software engineer on battlefield 2042 movement
we can't even back prone or lean

[green breach]

"Not my Battlefield"

[gusty jasper]

Who wouldve known bite sized portions of older games with half the xp would be underwhelming

[idle crater]

BRO I DIED 7 TIMES AND GOT 0 KILLS THIS GAME IS SO DEAD SMH

[brittle forge]

On a worse foundation as well

[lime crystal]

Yes and the bullets go exactly where you are aiming in bfv

[split osprey]

I just had a game where I was rolling in a tank chasing a jeep, and I went around the corner and he was revving his engine into the corner of a wall. I bet that dude came right to this discord after I blew him up

[arctic grove]

He has to say what he is told he has to say. It's how companies work. Seriously, he can't tell you the complete truth or his real opinion, even if he wanted to. He'd lose his job.

[pseudo grail]

I don't even think Battlefield friends will return lmaoo

[brittle forge]

To be completely fair a Dice dev said they were moved back prone because it was abused by campers, which it was, so that was actually a good removal

[green breach]

@pseudo grail they are like thank god we dont have to do new videos on it.

[native jacinth]

lies

[pseudo grail]

@green breach facts 😂

[gusty jasper]

BF Friends is milking the hell out of reposting the old vids

[idle crater]

LMFAO

[brittle forge]

I wonder if they posted the non-animation of them talking about their feelings on the game

[green breach]

Do a battlefield friends episode going on a journey for a new shooter. And they end up in halo

[arctic grove]

Here's the thing guys: The game most likely needed another few months of dev time. However, invenstors likely wanted their money before holidays.

[brittle forge]

Because neebs gaming does talk about games from time to time

[green breach]

It needed a whole year

Like halo

[arctic grove]

Possibly that too, but it is clear to me that someone really wanted his money RIGHT NOW

[pseudo grail]

Anyone still play bf4 ?

[split osprey]

People who are bad at 2042 play BF4

[arctic grove]

So yeah, blaming the devs is kinda shitty IMO, they don't get to decide about when the game releases.

[brittle forge]

No kidding but they sold it to us when they did for the AAA price so it gets judged as such

[arctic grove]

The execs and marketing people sold it to you, not the devs.

[green breach]

We can still have fun battlefield friends videos but them doing different games

[stark cipher]

Yes I’m still playing

[pseudo grail]

@split osprey Bf 2042 is trash bro probably the worst battlefield I've ever played

[split osprey]

You're wasting your time with logic and rational thinking.

[brittle forge]

I mean obviously the grunt level dev has little to do with business decisions but with three years of development I think there was problems with dev leadership too

[split osprey]

In other words you're bad at it?

[lime crystal]

A lot of people hate it yet its still on top of the list, i just wish 2042 was made with the same quality as mw19

[stark cipher]

Shut the fuck up..

[brittle forge]

I’m not trying to shit on the devs bro, get your words out of my mouth

[green breach]

2042 is second worse. Worst was play for free

[split osprey]

Mw2019 is the worst fps in gaming history, so I am glad it's not like that.

[arctic grove]

3 years of dev is not that much nowadays TBH. Sure, CoD can pump out a new game every year, but it is basically the same thing reskinned.

[odd ledge]

He is dumb.

[pseudo grail]

@split osprey I'm not bad it I'm speaking facts the game runs poorly on pc

[arctic grove]

People like you is why we can't have nice things.

[stark cipher]

Including EA’s dumbest brain

[pseudo grail]

@split osprey and the game doesn't have a scoreboard 🤷🏾‍♂️

[split osprey]

That doesn't affect my gameplay

[arctic grove]

They end up in fortnite

People like you is why we can’t have good shits..

That’s longer than I meant it to be @crisp ferry

[split osprey]

Can someone paraphrase please?

[lime crystal]

If you haven't noticed 2042 is bad copy paste of it, animations, visual recoil, movement...etc. Just done in a way nowhere near as good as mw19

[pseudo grail]

I knew that game was going to flop

[ornate skiff]

Regret buying it

[brittle forge]

With how many people working on the game and compared to BFV’s dev cycle of only having two years, 3 years should have been plenty. But I don’t think the leaders knew what game they wanted to make and changed course late in development

[green breach]

Thanks steam refunds

[split osprey]

I dont think it's anything like MW2019. It feels like Battlefield.

[idle crater]

it sold more than almost any other bf game but ok

[ornate skiff]

Anyone who bought the game has been througly robbed by EA and Dice

[stark cipher]

And high refunds..

[arctic grove]

This is quite possible. But then again, then it is on those people who had no idea what the heck they want the dev team to do. Some people bash the entire dev team for no reason.

[pseudo grail]

EA hyped us to much that's why lot of people bought it and now they can't get a refund

[foggy crest]

atleast MW19 is better than BF2042

[idle crater]

you got numbers boi or u gonna quote fat angry joe?

[stark cipher]

EA fucking used false hypes on us

[arctic grove]

Anyways, the real problem is not companies nor people. The root of behavioural problems on the Internet is the shitty state of education and society.

[split osprey]

MW2019 is not better than any fps

[stark cipher]

Steam and stats exist you can google them

[green breach]

All thats left to look forward to from EA is Mass Effect 4

[idle crater]

sure let me know how many people refunded

[mental finch]

Okay, In summary. 2042 decided to be it’s own thing, and going back and playing literally every battlefield game proves that you shouldn’t do that.

[split osprey]

The real problem is how many people come here with poopy takes and smear them all over the place

[fossil trench]

Fallen Order 2?

[foggy crest]

ooooh a hater nice 😂

[green breach]

@fossil trench fair enough

[lime crystal]

It is battlefield but its completly diffrent from previous titles, it followed a trend that is warzone

[pseudo grail]

Have you seen the state on last gen battlefield 2042 is like playing a PS3 version of the game

[stark cipher]

Imagine not googling them

[spiral folio]

they don't even report sales figures anymore
old sales figures were always based on physical sales. With digital sales they won't even report now. And ask if anyone got a physical copy

[split osprey]

I disagree completely. It is a true Battlefield game. Traversal sprint and specialists doesn't change that. It's Battlefield and it's awesome.

[stark cipher]

Ngl it’s closer as cod bos3 on xbox 360/ps3

[green breach]

2042 requires a SSD

[idle crater]

you made the claim, im having fun in this obviously very alive game so yeh its up to you

[arctic grove]

I think this is largely an echo chamber effect though. Some popular streamer says something, a lot of kids watch them and start saying the streamer's opinion as fact, then people repeat the same thing others say because it is the cool thing to do and makes people feel like they belong.

[brittle forge]

Whenever a game launch is bad I usually blame studio leadership rather than the average dev themselves, obviously publisher pressure is a problem too here but EA trying to rush the devs had little to do with the failure of other projects such as Anthem, so I doubt EA wanting holiday is 100% of the issue. Although it’s definitely a big part of it

[pseudo grail]

I wouldn't be disappointed if the game had a different title because definitely that's not a battlefield game

[stark cipher]

I don’t create the claim, it’s stats claim it

[split osprey]

Pretty much yep

[odd ledge]

It's battlefield with Santa skin.. a modern shooter with Fortnite take on it.

[idle crater]

lets see the numbers then :3

[stark cipher]

70% is basically refund on steam

[split osprey]

There is no Santa Skin but OK.

[green breach]

[reef kestrel]

[brittle forge]

There was going to be but they damaged controlled like mad lmao

It WAS locked to a portal event. So all your complaining makes no sense either way.

[pseudo grail]

Battlefield is literally copying cod and it's not going to work

[odd ledge]

Haha he is such a lost kid Brick top what type of veteran player are u in battlefield serie?

[spiral folio]

character customization isn't exactly a new concept I don't mind it, but I wish they'd do like a SNES game and make a light or dark version depending which team you're on

[burnt sphinx]

ive been sitting at the "waiting for players to join" screen for 10m

[split osprey]

2042 is nothing like COD.

[pseudo grail]

@odd ledge He is not a veteran battlefield he is some FORTNITE kid

[arctic grove]

Honestly, I don't know. The truth is that it is all speculation. We don't know what went wrong and also won't know. But bashing the game is not helping anyone. They are working on fixing stuff and the game is fun. Also definitely not dead. I don't see the problem. Sure, it was not a cheap product, but we have to realize that we ARE paying for the brand. Battlefield is a brand like Adidas in the clothes department. You know what I mean.

[idle crater]

ur the one stuck on a server for a game you hate id say ur the lost soul

[brittle forge]

I mean you make about as much sense by saying there wasn’t a Santa skin when your PFP was literally said Santa skin

[split osprey]

So they listened to the players? How terrible.

[split osprey]

Ain't one in the game bud.

[odd ledge]

Yeah i know

[reef kestrel]

After the mess, yes.

[stark cipher]

Light is usa and dark is ru ezzz

[odd ledge]

They only listen when 70% drop lol.

[mental finch]

In all Honesty they aren’t copying COD, they’re copying like every other shooter besides COD.

[split osprey]

Well that's good. So we can get them to change things. Sounds great.

[spiral folio]

they did do the like green or orange dot on people's backs, but you obviously can't see that from the front

[split osprey]

This game is nothing like COD.

[stark cipher]

Sad part they won’t bring the classes back ;-;

[reef kestrel]

Waiting the overhaul core gameplay like removal of specialist and turn them into elite skin and bring class back.

[green breach]

Imagine neebs as a spartan in halo infinite

[pseudo grail]

@split osprey you know that bf 2042 is sucks stop trolling

[brittle forge]

The only places where they copied cod was the ADS reload and traversal sprint which are quite clearly ripped from modern warfare. Not a problem though cause those aren’t bad features.

[fossil trench]

Sorry but I don’t really care about the skins

[lime crystal]

If you go back to bfv you'd instantly notice how lacking 2042 is. I just wish they delayed it more. I play it anyway and hope it improves

[stark cipher]

It is closer like cod…

[idle crater]

you know you hate it cuz youre trash at it stop trolling

[arctic grove]

Wtf is this still

[split osprey]

I have 115 hours and I play it every day. How many hours do you have? Have you been able to get more than 5 kills in a match?

[idle crater]

[odd ledge]

Doesn't matter what they do this is repeat as bfv they fixed things and yes there was a playerbase but they lost a big amount since the launch of that game. Same is doing with this.... Troll game

#hazard-zone ?

[stark cipher]

I hate how they legit used false hopes in trailers..

[spiral folio]

from what i've seen cod is more short range run and gun lately, like a halo game but with 'realistic' costumes. I haven't played a 'recent' one but battlefield has always been wider maps / bigger battles

[orchid lark]

Head to #hazard-zone for the correct players

Come back to me when the game gets a sale and has metro

[mental finch]

I hope they make Rush part of All out Warfare so more people play it. I’ve noticed that there’s a big misconception that all of portal has an XP cap, and that’s why a lot of people don’t play any of the Portal options, despite the fact that the featured games actually have full XP.

[split osprey]

I dont think you guys want a scoreboard. You don't want us to see your scores no way.

[arctic grove]

I wanna seey.scores

[arctic grove]

You do realize that is a matter of personal taste though? Also, with no customization there would be less income from MTX. As for why the trailer showed a lot of the standard soldiers... Well, there can be multiple reasons. Maybe they just looked better for the purpose of the trailer. Also, it is not like the trailer did not feature specialists as well.

[brittle forge]

Come back to me when the game leaves alpha

Well this is what happen when someone is addicted to copium

[arctic grove]

Oh, I see. Well, I still think people should wait until Season 1. I think a lot of cosmetic stuff will drop then and maybe it will even have realistic skins they can get. Even right now it is not like you can't have military style skins. Irish and Dozer look normal and also Angel gets a skin at level 72 that is similar to the AI skins.

If you haven’t tried Rush you should. It’s my favorite game mode with the new guns and maps. I still don’t know why it’s not permanent, or why it’s even in portal and not just in all out warfare.

Yeah Rush is amazing. I love it

[odd ledge]

4,2 million but lost 70% playerbase lol

[stark cipher]

^

[reef kestrel]

The game isnt in a good state doubt season 1 will do something.

Everyone want a Battlefield with BFV gameplay, BF3 and 4 immersion (Levolution and destruction.), relation with BF2142 because BF2142 will attract og players.

The only things that make battlefield atm is the cluster af fight with 128 players, if you compare the game with the previous series there is a huge problem.

Already the redflag is breaking the maincore for something new.

Well let say BF2042 had a hell development.

[arctic grove]

what a tragedy

[ornate skiff]

This game is so fucking broken

[arctic grove]

I think a lot of people forget that the people who go complain on Discord, Reddit, etc are a vocal minority and also possibly the more hardcore gamers. A lot of casual players do not care about santa skins or 60fps or whatever.

[green breach]

Remove 70 percent of the week one sales from 2042

[split osprey]

Steam = entire player base

[idle crater]

and? game still full and alive while yall mad and got no games to play so you whine at discord

[odd ledge]

Who cares if they did a dream number like 10 million players... They still lost more then half of players. They made money of trolling.

[mortal horizon]

Yeah, I'm getting kinda sick of people throwing around that Steam number as if it's indicative of the entire player count.

[split osprey]

Steam isn't the whole player base. But sure

[idle crater]

game can lose 60% more and still be more alive than anything u play

[odd ledge]

You are just a brick into a wall..

[mental finch]

I mean yeah, the trailers were great, They said the Beta was an old build, so most of the people that bought Battlefield three still bought this game, Week 1 sales really says nothing about the quality of the game. Just the amount of hype and good marketing it had.

[split osprey]

It just shows how ignorant they are

[reef kestrel]

Refund isnt included. :)

[arctic grove]

Funny, everyone wants BF3 and 4 and 1 gameplay yet those games are almost dead (at least on console). If so many people love playing those games, then tell me, why don't they just play them? The servers are up. What is happening is clear to me: A vocal minority complaining while the majority is enjoying the newest entry.

[odd ledge]

Well read reviews on Xbox or any other console. U brick into a wall.

[mortal horizon]

Probably the same people who think they look edgy trying to rally a class action lawsuit

[reef kestrel]

Dead because they are old.

[split osprey]

Steam isn't the whole player base. But sure

[arctic grove]

But they are so good, right? Why would age matter?

[odd ledge]

Xbox and ps ain't in steam 🤦🏻

#battlefield-legacy-titles2042 ThanksGiving stats:

[stark cipher]

Pretty sure it’s 100k rn

[odd ledge]

They ain't a 5 star Mr Santa

[mental finch]

I play BF4 on a regular basis, but the reason more people don’t, is because it came out in 2013…. https://steamcharts.com/app/1238860 …For a game that old, I’d hardly call this dead tbh

[split osprey]

Reviews dont mean the people arent playing the game. Do your parents know you're on the internet?

[reef kestrel]

Dont expect a game to keep 200k players base when its was released 6-8yo ago.

Loom at MW19 he did great a making new things and keeping the core by improving the gameplay then come Warzone and the f2p was the huge icebreaker for a success.

What BF needed was improvement in gameplay, new contents, new gamemode like Titan Assault, new vehicle, era battlefield.. etc..

Not point to add a huge list.

[arctic grove]

I said on console.

So learn to read please! 🙂

[reef kestrel]

BFV still have 20k on steam and prolly more on origin.

[split osprey]

BF got what it needed. It just needs fine tuning and more content now.

[reef kestrel]

Doesnt justify the backlash tho.

They break the core that peoples liked.

[ornate skiff]

Bro, getting through the damn menu is hard as it is for some people

[split osprey]

They will be adding stuff back.

[mental finch]

Yes, because leaving out PC on a cross platform game is totally fair when talking about the number of people still active on Multiplayer… sure

[ornate skiff]

Obviusly the game is not in a good state along with the various bugs in game

[arctic grove]

Love how you guys completely ignore part of my message in an attempt to disprove my point. Also, "people don't play it because it is old" is not a good argument. If people absolutely love those games and hate the new one and they still don't play the old one but come to Discord to whine instead? I don't know man, it does not add up.

[reef kestrel]

Backlash :

Specialist, Cosmetic, Battle Royale, Unfinised product, less destruction, Less levolution, map balance, optimization, core gameplay etc..

[split osprey]

They are lonely people who have nothing better to do.

[arctic grove]

Makes sense to me.

[stark cipher]

Fuck no battle royale need stay low

[reef kestrel]

You know there is a diff. of contructive argument and someome who whine yee game sux or mocking the game by saying its a clown hero shooter.

[mental finch]

It does add up, you’re just ignoring everything. I still play super Nintendo games, on an actual SNES, but that is literally not a thing most people do BECAUSE ITS OLD AND HARD TO GET THAT CONSOLE. Have fun being hardheaded.

[reef kestrel]

[arctic grove]

It's so hard to get a PS4, wow

LMAO, you are grasping at strawmen guys, I am out.

[harsh spindle]

I've waisted £100 buying this game and i can safely say that your anti cheat don't work there's so many player I've come across with my 70 plus hours of play i know are cheating .from shooting through ships to snipping you across the map and killing 3 ppl at same time headshot with 1 bullet .so come on .did you call it easy as it was easy to purchase the hacks or what

[river salmon]

Why would you want a PS4 for a game that runs better on a PS5?

[reef kestrel]

He is some copium leave him alone.

[arctic grove]

This is exactly why everyone on discord and reddit are pissed

[split osprey]

Discord and reddit make up like 3% of the player base

[reef kestrel]

People cant even get into whiner perspective to see their fustration Dice broke their favorite core game.

[mental finch]

The PS4 is more dated in comparison to the SNES, because 3D graphics objectively age worse than 2-D graphics do. The amount of people I’ve heard say they won’t go back to PS4 graphics compared to the amount of people I’ve heard say they won’t go back to SNES graphics, which is literally nobody, is a big difference. You’re pretending that everybody has the same exact mindset as you, and applying it to your argument, which means your argument is bad.

[arctic grove]

This is true

[split osprey]

People are also incredibly ignorant and stubborn and have tunnel vision on hate instead of seeing that the game is still Battlefield, and that specialists are only gadgets on top of the classes we had.

[mental finch]

I don’t remember being able to have an AA gun as a medic and other battlefield games, but OK then

[arctic grove]

People who won't play their favorite game because it has somewhat worse graphics and will endlessly complain on the Internet instead... well, those are people I'll never understand and I think they might even be doing it for attention.

I enjoy BF2042 but im getting annoyed with the specialist I wish to have the old core back.

[split osprey]

More options is better though. More playstyles. It's way better than having some barebones shit class that is terrible in a lot of situations. Now we can actually create much better classes ourselves.

[opaque barn]

If you play on 2042 on PS4 after playing cross play on ps5 you'll feel like you're playing with AI

[arctic grove]

But going against the flow won't get you thousands of karma on Reddit and the appreciation of and validation from Internet randoms of Discord.

Something I think this somewhat boils down to.

[reef kestrel]

Doesnt justify the negative review on youtube, metacritic, steam, google etc...

[mental finch]

That I can agree with, but they still exist, and they exist in such a number that I can’t ignore them When comparing player basis of modern games sadly. Half of the people I’ve seen defend BF3 and BF4 on this server, Actually say they can’t play them anymore because they’re too dated. I will admit that I’m not one of those people, and the same as you I think those people are sort of jokes.

[opaque barn]

@arctic grove they build you up to tear you down. F internet fans

[split osprey]

Honestly using Falck with options for gadgets is infinitely better than the barebones medic class from past games. INFINITELY BETTER.

[arctic grove]

F as in "press F" or the F word? 😄

[split osprey]

Going back would suck

[opaque barn]

@arctic grove the f word

[dry wigeon]

what u guys still play this

[split osprey]

[mental finch]

But, I’m sorry, saying the old BF classes are bad is such a minority opinion, changing it should’ve never been in the mouths of the Devs. If you’re not making a game for the majority of the targeted playerbase, what are you doing?

[arctic grove]

I see. Thanks for the clarification! But also press F to pay respects. 😄

[reef kestrel]

@arctic grove

[split osprey]

Where do you come up with that, majority? Got any facts to back that up?

steam is irrelevant. 20% of the entire player base.

200k vs 700k compared BF1 "Success"

[split osprey]

Actually Im not but you can think whatever you want makes no difference to me.

I can't take user reviews on Metacritic and Steam seriously. Critics reviews are more plausible, but even then I like to form my own opinion on things. As for Youtube: Most content creators are gonna say what gets them the most clicks and most ad revenue. Hating on BF2042 gets them a lot of clicks, so they'll do that. Case solved.

[reef kestrel]

Isnt ps5 out of stock?

[split osprey]

You see I hop on and enjoy myself. I play some games and it's a great time. You guys sit here in misery and try to validate your opinions off of each other, hoping it will make you feel better.

I will and Ill have fun, meanwhile you can continue whining like a little kid.

[sullen inlet]

EFT wipe waiting queue :DDDDDD

[mental finch]

Because I’ve been a battlefield fan, and active in the community long enough, to know that a majority of battlefield players were attached to the class system that was already in place. And I’ve been able to find way more negative content than positive when being critical about the game. X-Play gave it the most positive review I could find, and then BlackHokage literally followed up with “I’ve only played it for 2 hours”

[dry wigeon]

rofl u think the game is 5/5 XD i mean those reviews were paid off

[split osprey]

I cant even imagine sitting on a discord for a game I hate, and just crying all day long. Holy fuck

[arctic grove]

I don't think it is 5/5 but it is definitely not 2.8/10

[wise zodiac]

Some of them might think that it gives them validation.

[dry wigeon]

its around that yes

[reef kestrel]

Fair enough if you want to form your own opinions.

[split osprey]

Man haha

[mental finch]

Notice this is the battlefield discord, not the 2042 discord, I just play 2042, and I want it to get better, so I’m in that channel.

[arctic grove]

More people should try that. Then we'd have less echo chambers. 🙂

[split osprey]

This is the 2042 section man

[mental finch]

Notice I literally explained why I’m in the 2042 section in the comment you just replied to

[arctic grove]

Any giveaways ?

[split osprey]

Alright Im gonna go play you guys have fun

[arctic grove]

I missed the launch celebration ::::(

[weak rock]

Battlefield™️ 2042

[opaque barn]

@mental finch As a battlefield legend with the shotgun in bf4. Top shottyy user in California ( humble brag).
I was attracted to destruction, scope options, and the realism of 1 shot semi auto stick shotguns along with epic footwork, intense war tapes sounds, knife kills and teabagging

[arctic grove]

wanna a code for origin or steam

[reef kestrel]

I have my own opinions, it fun but not that great compared previous Battlefield, not impressed with 128 players since I have 7k hours in Planetside 2. , I hate specialist so I fuck all of them with my vehicle.

[vernal atlas]

Battlefield 2077

[arctic grove]

Yeah, epic fail

[sacred marten]

stuck again in the sky. can't spawn

[arctic grove]

give me ur account i wanna try it lol

[arctic grove]

This game feeling closer to Planetside 2 in player count is actually one of the things I love about it.

[sacred marten]

terrible game

[arctic grove]

PC OR CONSOLE?

[sacred marten]

pc

[arctic grove]

If you want a refund, you should contact EA LOL. Having this as your nick won't achieve anything.

[mental finch]

How do you feel about the Destruction in this game? That’s one complaint I don’t really have, I still notice it, things still blow up in front of me, it doesn’t seem to be any less restrictive than it has since BF3. BC2 still has the most destruction.

[sacred marten]

fuckers wont do shit

[reef kestrel]

Planetside did something no one would do and we want more game like this but set in modern era.

[arctic grove]

wow is this ur first time buying EA games?

[dry wigeon]

what destruction what is that?

[arctic grove]

Well, then you are out of luck. Having it as your nick and crying about it won't get you a refund.

[sacred marten]

I rather spread the word of how shit they are

[wanton sail]

it has bugs

[dry wigeon]

bad performance

[arctic grove]

No, I've been playing their stuff since the PS2 era or maybe even PS1 era.

[wanton sail]

but i call them features

[reef kestrel]

Cant compare bf2042 to planetside 2.

Planetside 2 is more a MMOFPS that can have a massive fight at 500+ players in a battlefield.

[sacred marten]

having a nick of good game is not going to convince anyone that this game is

[reef kestrel]

The game dont even have hitreg issue which is

[arctic grove]

Why are they shit? There are certain rules that apply to purchases. If they are breaking some sort of contract or something then go and complain to a lawyer or whoever. But I think that would end up more expensive than the game.

[mental finch]

See, come on, At that point you’re literally pretending that it’s not in the game. Sure there’s some buildings that oddly aren’t destructible compared to others, but there’s literally some buildings in Battlefield three, and Battlefield four, that are weirdly non-destructible compared to others

[reef kestrel]

Planetside have less playerbase but its peaked in 2012-2017.

[arctic grove]

Who said my nick was talking about any particular game? This has been my nick for like a decade now.

[sacred marten]

telling people this game is shit is my only option then

[oak harness]

Funny how COD can manage it too.

[arctic grove]

Sure, you are free to do that.

[sacred marten]

terrible name

[arctic grove]

You are also free to have that opinion.

[reef kestrel]

Many game can have 120+ players problem is optimization

[marble orchid]

because it is? It's largely due to what the engines were designed to do in the end of things.

[mental finch]

Tbf, the only BF game in History (literally) to ever completely lose a playerbase is Hardline, and let’s be real, This game is way better than Hardline.

[spark rapids]

am i the only person here that likes 2042?

[oak harness]

Yes

[reef kestrel]

Yeah planetside 2 engine was designed to have more players on screen and remember you could play the game without any issue with 560 ti long time ago.

[hot yacht]

I like it

[spark rapids]

wow

[proud verge]

i love it cause i don't suck at it

[robust patio]

Lmaoooo

That’s funny

[spark rapids]

2042 is a good game, most of the problems can and will be fixed

[arctic grove]

bf3 and 4 are dated on console. At least pc players can set the setting to Ultra.

[robust patio]

We need that bf universe whatever it’s called asap

[cobalt mason]

game really isnt that bad, its pretty fun. Its just some times when there is an annoying bug but thats it

[reef kestrel]

You're not alone but let say negative people are more louder. :)

[spark rapids]

exactly, imagine how fun it will be when the problems are fixed

[marble orchid]

planetside 2, along with many mmo engines, are designed with the fact that they'll be hundreds of players in a world/region

[oak harness]

Nice try EA/DICe

[fiery shoal]

sadly most people like to rant about things they hate, if you like it youre usually just playing it. games a 7/10 atm for me, though i recognize others have more problems than myself

[reef kestrel]

Dont forget its a fps which ask more data compared what a mmo do (Tab Target.) I think BDO should be pretty close due to his dynamic action combat system.

[mental finch]

Yes, that is true, but the people I’ve heard say that were PC players. And the person I was responding to there was saying that it’s invalid to say that BF4 is better than this if it’s playerbase is small , and also said im only talking about console. So really it was dumb, and I shouldn’t have even taken that stupid bait.

[marble orchid]

The game would be rated better if the maps were smaller

[spark rapids]

what?

[rocky hornet]

It's a good game on its own but when compared to previous Battlefield games it is just lacking so much

[keen loom]

I tried so hard not to play this game today, but I just love it too much

[fiery shoal]

i think there are a ton of reasons for the poor rating, half of them not really being justifiable for the low scores, but thats just how the internet works

[oak harness]

Game will be in a bad state until June 7th, 2022 when they remove hazard zone and launch the game free to play as a battle royale game as originally intended

[spark rapids]

i actually like most maps, the only one i really hate is discarded

[arctic grove]

lol all good. i cant afford a pc so i play on xbox and i wish the graphics were enhanced now.

[keen loom]

that's a lot to accomplish.. they'd need to be developing that now

[marble orchid]

eh, not necessarily. It depends on the amount of mobs, people, and particles happening on screen largely

[fiery shoal]

discarded is my 2nd favorite map, so many good places to fight

[oak harness]

Wrong again. The game was originally a battle royale game turned into this sad mess we have now

[reef kestrel]

Yes that one too.

[keen loom]

I actually just started getting into Discord after learning how to have fun without being on that stupid ship the whole time

[marble orchid]

discarded is probably the worst map. Orbital is better

[mental finch]

See, but you still Play it!!! You prove my fucking point!!! BF4 isn’t dead with the player-base it has considering how many BF games there’s been since, and how old the game actually is.

[arctic grove]

True i still play it lol

[keen loom]

yeah I know that.. But they'd still have to be working towards it even now if they wanna relaunch it

[rocky hornet]

The worst imo are discarded and breakaway

[keen loom]

I'm kind of tired of hourglass too

[fiery shoal]

is there even a verified source saying it was originally going to be a BR title?

[faint rampart]

H

[reef kestrel]

Breakthrough mode:

Worst : Hourglass, Kaleidscope
Good : Breakaway, Orbital, Discarded and Manifest.

CONS : Openfield so pretty much you are the food for the vehicle and pepega roof point

[oak harness]

All of the maps are bad. Only good maps are portal maps

[marble orchid]

No, there isn't. The conspiracy theory originally came from reddit and it just caught on

[spark rapids]

my fav. maps would be manifest, hourglass and renewal, the rest are decent and discarded is bad

[keen loom]

I don't even try to take rooftop objectives.. super pointeless, super boring

[spark rapids]

nah

[fiery shoal]

figures as much, most people say shit like its a fact. i wouldnt believe 2042 was going to be a BR considering how FS did for bfv

[spark rapids]

i think DICE will change that soon

[reef kestrel]

We dont even know, the only things we can speculate..., they had 5 studios working on BF2042 and let not forget the game doesnt have campaign so we expect the multiplayer was completed and had more stuff.

[arctic grove]

Look the only thing we all have to agree is how EA and DICE baited us with the trailers and concept. They were all targeted at the bf veterans with no indication of specialists and live services. With trailers of shit blowing up and some buildings partly collapsing. Just the lies we were told is what disappoints me.

[coral saffron]

i think this game might actually become amazing in the year 2042

[fiery shoal]

rooftop fights are always fun for me unless if they have 10 people guarding every elevator up

[marble orchid]

You people are saying it was a battle royale as if it were a fact when all it is is a reddit conspiracy theory

[fiery shoal]

specialists were literally shown for the longest time...

[oak harness]

It's pretty obvious it was. Heros, no scoreboard, armor plates, massive open maps. This 100% was a br game at one point not long ago

[keen loom]

yeahh I hope so, it just feels super tedious. and they don't give you a good terrain to capture unless you actually get up there with a vehicle or use on of the adjacent rooftops. I don't like it

[marble orchid]

@fiery shoal see

[coral saffron]

why did they not create the great big buildings with multiple floors and the flag in the middle? the buildings are so pointless

[spark rapids]

nothing comfirms it was going to be a BR

[stark cipher]

Planetside 2 is good af

[coral saffron]

might aswell have just made the buildings hills

[south gull]

To those who saw the weekly missions how bad are they?

[reef kestrel]

They'll confirm it like in 6 years

[keen loom]

I think they should prohibit vehicle drops on rooftops. You literally can't get up there on foot

[arctic grove]

not the 1st few trailers. All we saw is a bunch of generic soldiers dropping down in squirrel suits.

[oak harness]

Even the comms have BR stuff thats not in the game

[marble orchid]

so they're never fun

[radiant prism]

Almost every specialist was in the original trailer. The generic soldiers are the AI soldiers we still see in game.

[arctic grove]

No reaction emotes here, so THIS.

[fiery shoal]

ok, but its not like they didnt give you all the information the serveral months following the trailer to launch...

[reef kestrel]

Pretty much everyone expected a classic class core and those specialist would be just a elite skin like bfv.

[arctic grove]

THIS as well.

[spark rapids]

they should change some of the voicelines really, it shouldnt be THAT hard

[radiant prism]

Specialists were marketed from the beginning

[fiery shoal]

i must be lucky because its rare i have people camping the elevators, plus i use tact inserts up there too

[arctic grove]

If this is true then why are people complaining about specialists now? it make more sense to complain when it was 1st announced.

[reef kestrel]

Peoples have been complaining before launch. But it become more louder after the launch.

[oblique cipher]

Is there a reason why they still have not fixed the issue where you can’t change weapons or gear on renewal?

[oak harness]

People did.

[spark rapids]

specialists actually work well, the problem is their character and how happy they are

[small comet]

i dont understand why ppl are complainging about the specialists where there are FAR bigger issues

[keen loom]

yeah and I shouldn't be spamming "don't pick me up" just cause I'm anxious to get back in the game and pressing the button. its nonsense

[arctic grove]

Damn i mustve been living under a rock.

[oak harness]

All the way back to the technical test people have said it was bad

[copper rock]

Dont be sad, sometimes it just works out like that sometimes

[reef kestrel]

On my side it doesnt work its just my opinions better to take it with a grain of salt.

[fiery shoal]

what is this logic? people complained about it at launch and complain about it now because they still dont want it and its still in game. they think going back the traditional class system is some universal solution

[keen loom]

the streamers did a terrible job exposing the issues for this game... before release

[copper rock]

Yall care a little too much

[reef kestrel]

11.5k upvote about removal of specialist.

Dont forget reddit made the AR broken during release.

[spark rapids]

BF2042 will be a great game, but sadly we will have to wait until its fixed

[oak harness]

I played all the tests. Did all the surveys and voiced how terrible the specialists system was.

[arctic grove]

The logic is that most expected a remastered bf3/4 game

[fiery shoal]

those are stupid AF expectations because that was literally not an indication at all ever

[stark cipher]

It’s traditional class system is a solution..

[keen loom]

lowkey I don't have an issue with the specialist system lol

[oak harness]

I know tons of people that did as well and ea/dice like usual ignored us

[deep creek]

I dont mind specialists either.

[oblique cipher]

I could use an extra $60 if you don’t care

[reef kestrel]

Not worse than Halo with their predatory monetization. Their reddit went on lockdown during the whole weekend lmao

[keen loom]

its just different

[deep creek]

There was an open beta.

[oblique cipher]

Which performed better than launch

[copper rock]

Move on to something else. They will fix what they intend to fix and that's it. New leadership has been introduced and they are working on specific fixes. Take it as it is. Meanwhile find something else to do. There are other games to enjoy that actually work

[fiery shoal]

halo gives entire MP experience for free besides cosmetics "omg they are predatory"... logic

[mental finch]

BECAUSE, DESPITE THE GRAPHICS BEING INEVITABLY DATED, THE GAMEPLAY IS NOT, Jesus, see, this means you don’t think In tunnel vision. Very rare here, I don’t like the hate mob, but I equally do not like the people saying you’re stupid if you don’t love this game. It’s all so fucking dumb, and I wish people could think before stating such argumentative opinions filled with biased bullshit. I wish I could list issues I have with the game IN A DISCORD SERVER THAT FUCKING DICE EMPLOYEES ARE ACTIVE IN, without ending up in 5 different arguments about shit I wasn’t even saying in the first place. Sorry about the rant, but Jesus Christ

[deep creek]

So according to your logic they wont ever fix performance?

[fair ivy]

Weereeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[copper rock]

I could care less that you are out $60. If it's that much of a dent in your wallet, then I dont know what to tell you bud

[young shuttle]

anyone that likes milsim just search KARMA on portal. Really fun. Amazing immersion compared to the base game.

[oak harness]

EAs answer to how bad specialists was received was show off more specialists. They are deaf. This game will never be in good shape If they keep it up, guaranteed it will be down to 10000 players next week.

[grave prism]

IDK WHO BUT SOMEONE LIED ABOUT PORTAL HAVING ATTACHMENT UNLOCKS WORKING WHOEVER IT WAS YOU SUCK

[keen loom]

I love the game, dont get me wrong. Things I'm passionately into I tend to criticize cause I'm so focused on it, so don't mind my messages

[oblique cipher]

Damn dude I’m trying to figure out where I said that?

[arctic grove]

Lmao yeah but its discord. Just tell chill tho i know it upsets you.

[deep creek]

I could use an extra 60$. Meaning u want ur money back

[spark rapids]

so did BFV and then it revived

[copper rock]

I get it. At this point this and reddit are an echo chamber. Nothing new is being said. If you are not pleased with this title then you know what to do for the next EA/ DICE game. Anything beyond that is your fault

[grave prism]

YOU are unwise and not smart ronald

[keen loom]

uhh that's kinda why I don't use Portal and I did tweet them to make it more robust

[oak harness]

BFV is still bad, it's just the lesser of two evils.

[fiery shoal]

when ONLY steams average is at 43k...

[reef kestrel]

The amount of copium and salt on this discord isnt comparable with Halo.

[young shuttle]

you have to set them before you spawn .

[oak harness]

It's down to 20 now

[arctic grove]

Next bf is 2142 but it will be f2p

[brittle forge]

Then it was killed off in favor of this game. Smart call, that one

[arctic grove]

And i thought bf fanbase was bad lmao [im part of this fanbase]

[fiery shoal]

i did look at the wrong measurement, but its at 28k for peak average.. which is still only steam, not origin, xbox or ps...

[keen loom]

feel that. I do love the game though.. for my own reasons of fun. I don't complain as much as others here though. But to your point, I'll probably be playing the game regardless cause I'm having fun lol

[quartz jay]

Halo MP is fucking terrible rn

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[copper rock]

steam makes up about 23% of the player base. Besides the real numbers are like 1.3 million players on thanksgiving. 2 days ago there were 200K total approximately. What are you going to do with the info? Nothing

[grave prism]

why the fk does mackay look like kermit the frog

[arctic grove]

Not sure how people enjoy it

[oak harness]

That's average over time. Not daily peak. That number will continue to drop as the month progresses

[copper rock]

Games are supposed to be fun. Some people have shitty lives and play to escape that's how.

[mental finch]

As long as your BFV opinion doesn’t involve women, I can respect this.

[reef kestrel]

Look New World from 900k to what ?

[quartz jay]

How do u enjoy a hacker infested game?

[arctic grove]

valid point

[reef kestrel]

[keen loom]

adjusting to it tbh

[fiery shoal]

im not sure what you think my stance is, but you basically just expanded on my post with more context. the guy i was replying to was saying the game will be down to 10k people soon, which as you and i know is only looking at steam...

[south gull]

The problem I see with it is that every character or class type has access to all different gadgets, I've rarely seen anyone use things outside of the rocket launcher or spawn beacon

[copper rock]

You should't care about what I enjoy. That shouldn't be a concern to you. Worry about what you like. I do my thing you do yours

[arctic grove]

Me on my way to play bf2042

[oak harness]

No. Just not a fan of the maps and some gameplay decisions. I felt it was the weakest game in the series so far before 2042

[fossil trench]

Angel does it again

[quartz jay]

This makes 0 sense but okay

[brittle forge]

I mean the general trend of players leaving the game probably persists across the platforms, especially since the initial number was inflated by people doing the trial and not buying the game. Sure the overall player count is higher than steams but the attrition rate is probably similar

[reef kestrel]

I hate the core of bf2042 but i still play the game because im bored.

[arctic grove]

Same

[copper rock]

It makes perfect sense. Why am I wrong for enjoying a game? Why do you care so much?

[quartz jay]

You defending a game with a terrible anticheat if theres one at all makes 0 sense. It shouldnt be a fucking norm

[spark rapids]

i play the game because i love it lol

[copper rock]

Again, so how does my joy impact your perosnal life again?

[keen loom]

the only actual problem I have for this game is SBMM... like how am I supposed to know if I'm actually good at the game? Like naturally Ima get better but I need to mirk some noobs lbh

[brittle forge]

To be fair that’s kind of his problem, not really yours

[reef kestrel]

You wont love it when peoples will start using 12M shotgun

[quartz jay]

this is worse than warzone players

[oak harness]

,nobody cares bro

[reef kestrel]

No isnt aware a new meta will be born with 12m shotgun

[mental finch]

Yep, same here, I don’t really know if I really thought it was bad… they just… I don’t know, it just didn’t grab me like the other ones did. I don’t if it was making Reviving into the E button which I still hate, or no 3-D spotting which I still hate, it just felt weaker than the ones that weren’t Hardline. Edit: I’m not a fan of the base maps, but the Pacific maps got me back into the game for a while there.

[copper rock]

Apparently @quartz jay cares quite a bit

[urban olive]

[proud verge]

🍼

[oak harness]

Also noone asked

[reef kestrel]

[spark rapids]

doubt

[copper rock]

I'm not here to make you happy though, so why do I care?

[reef kestrel]

Use 12m with buck mag.

[quartz jay]

autoshotty is insanely good people dont use it enough

[brittle forge]

If you don’t care why are you talking to us

[wise zodiac]

Listen. If people are just going to bash people because they enjoy the game, or if they're going to start issues, they'll be muted.

[oak harness]

Now he gets it 💩

[reef kestrel]

My premade have been using 12m its fucking strong.

[spark rapids]

i use the M5A3, i dont know why but i just love using it

[copper rock]

Mod is right

[reef kestrel]

Just wait till you get one tap in 30m lol

[stark cipher]

Bashing game let goo

[keen loom]

who commanded that?

[arctic grove]

You guys think HZ will become f2p in the future? I think it might to revive the dead game mode.

[naive sedge]

Did some asshat at EA actually consciously change Sundance's locking grenades to the way they work now (useless and broken) or what? Please tell me it was a code merge error...

[grave prism]

why use ammo or med box when you get more than enough ammo and are probably going to die before med box works

[fiery shoal]

easy to use, not exactly weak anywhere, its the stg44 of 2042

[reef kestrel]

not many use the autoshotgun atm but its fucking strong.

[quartz jay]

Depends I think season 1 will make it popular its a new game mode they need to work out the quirks

[spark rapids]

i already did many times

[keen loom]

the map makes the autoshogun pretty balanced

[wise zodiac]

And if thats the case, and it isn't constructive, those people will also get muted.

[reef kestrel]

Everyone use autoshotgun with buck mag extended!!!

[spark rapids]

the MP9 is also good imo

[brittle forge]

I don’t think going free to play would save that mode to be honest as-is. Needs a total rework to make it worth playing

[arctic grove]

Agreed. Only time will tell.

[grave prism]

i saw somebody using autoshotgun in hardcore server and it would kill from like 50m away

[reef kestrel]

Let force the meta.

[oak harness]

I hate the entire game and they should fix everything.

[copper rock]

There already is a new meta it's the AK

[south gull]

Exactly, when anyone can have a choice to use anything pretty much everyone plays a modified assault class

[reef kestrel]

no no try 12m shotgun with buck mag

[old mantle]

no u

[copper rock]

It's ok, not great though

[reef kestrel]

You will be surprised.

[oak harness]

I offered criticism and it was constructive.

[swift yarrow]

https://tenor.com/view/comethazine-meme-kinemaster-transition-21st-century-humor-gif-23548972

[south gull]

Welp I just messaged the wrong guy back lol

[reef kestrel]

"Not great" wiping a entire team.

[copper rock]

congrats i guess

[quartz jay]

people dont realise how good the autoshotty is lol

[reef kestrel]

We'll see when everyone use this shotgun

[copper rock]

Ok ping me when it happens

[south gull]

Can they at least separate some of the gadgets to certain classes, heck even do that with certain weapon choices

[reef kestrel]

Peoples will cry about this autoshotgun.

[brittle forge]

I don’t this game is making a crazy comeback to be honest unless DICE is willing to rework a couple of core systems

[oak harness]

Sorry. That doesn't offer you the pride and accomplishment of unlocking new specialists with the $9 dlc

[keen loom]

I don't even play that range so idc

[brittle forge]

It’s going to get better but is it going to pull a BF4-esque 180? I doubt it tbh

[south gull]

Sheet you right

[lime crystal]

Maybe in a year from now

[full isle]

it was big cap

[arctic grove]

Dont be sad, this is just how it works sometimes

[south gull]

Shut up angel

[dusky blade]

Hello

[brittle forge]

I’m probably going to be playing MW22 at that point unless IW drops the ball hard there. Given MW19 I kinda doubt it

[south gull]

Angle is my favorite specialist tho

[keen loom]

angel really is the best no gas

[brittle forge]

Angel’s super useful but his character is annoying

[south gull]

Yeah they need to get rid of those cringe voice lines

[visual oasis]

°•○°•●°•○°●

[keen loom]

yeah his voice lines suck

[south gull]

His voice lines when you start up the game are ok

[dusky blade]

MW19 is garbage. Bad maps, bad ttk, bad movement, bad visibility, bad matchmaking, bad customisation, bad progression, bad monetisation, bad mechanics, bad campaign, bad sides mode, bad footstep audio, bad balance, bad game

[reef kestrel]

angel is my main

[visual oasis]

Apexfield 2042

[old mantle]

You're my angel

[brittle forge]

You’re objectively wrong on like half of that but hey, your opinion.

[arctic grove]

Cap. its obvious Santa Boris is best

[dapper river]

I expect the campaign to be alright but fuck if they make you download 150+ GB of warzone bloatware on top of the campaign install size then I'm not playing that bullshit

[brittle forge]

Fair

[dusky blade]

Even if half of that is “objectively” wrong that’s more issues than most cod games have lol

[brittle forge]

I hate the Warzone install too cause I never played it

[south gull]

I just want the bf2042 story to be good...

[visual oasis]

Theirs no reason for warzone to take soo much space

[brittle forge]

Bro most cods are talentless borefest reskins. At least MW19 tried new stuff even it didn’t always work. It’s literally the only one since black ops two that I’ve enjoyed at all

[dusky blade]

It didn’t work, exactly 👍

[brittle forge]

There’s no reason for it to be a mandatory install

[visual oasis]

Lol

[mental finch]

Does anyone else feel like they shouldn’t have nerfed the activation time on smoke grenades? I never saw anyone complaining about it, but if it was an issue a bunch of people had, then it’s good they fixed it. I could see people finding Batman smoke Pellets annoying.

[wise zodiac]

Let's try to move the CoD chat into #other-games, please.

Thanks.

[thin quiver]

i havent played since the 1st is it any better or still snipe and bolte only XD?

[brittle forge]

Some of it. Fucking Ground War is more enjoyable than 2042 was at launch arguably even now

Anyway yeah off of cod

[marble orchid]

Ground war wasn't good at all. Regular cod was far better than that travesty and so is 2042

[arctic grove]

EA: Release Battlefield 2042
DICE: you sure boss I mean we nowhere near complete
EA: RELEASE BATTLEFIELD 2042 NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
DICE: fine but you will regret this day
DICE:just use the old trickbag saying where ahead of schedule and feeling confident 😎
Battlefield 2042: 📈
DICE & EA: 😭😭😭😭😭

[uneven palm]

I’m pretty sure that respawn are making the story or someone

[brittle forge]

I mean it wasn’t a non-stop 30 mm spam hovercraft/bolte shitfest with too open maps so agree to disagree. It’s not a perfect mode by any means but I had more fun with it tbqh

[old mantle]

That chart is pretty accurate. Game sold great

[arctic grove]

We all do but let's be honest it flopped I hope Vince Zampella revive it with his direction

[arctic grove]

[brittle forge]

I mean the story of this game has blatantly been thrown to the side. You can’t have themes and character development in multiplayer matches so the best case scenario is some neat lore and tie-in comics or something

[copper rock]

Don't hold your breath

[old mantle]

There's 5x the content because they left out the campaign

[arctic grove]

True I'ma be optimistic

[south gull]

Jesus Division 2 had better story then the beginning of this game

[proven saffron]

Guys can I unlock bolte addons on AI maps?

[wraith cobalt]

yep

[tired pelican]

so if there was a campaign we would have 4 weapons instead of 20

[old mantle]

I mean, there's not meant to be a story in the game. That's probably why.

[arctic grove]

30k steam charts for 2 weeks and 4.67m on all platforms in total......I'll say not the best seller for battlefield game

[proven saffron]

was it answer to my question?

[wraith cobalt]

yep

[old mantle]

Hey, you're the one who put the upwards trend chart in your comment.

[brittle forge]

No, because other than bigger maps this game has less content than the games that do have a single player. I don’t care about no singleplayer mind you, but this other guy was talking about the story and I was like “they don’t fucking care lmao”

[mental finch]

That seems to have been the final board room meeting for every game since BF3. Really makes me sad, I like DICE, I like new DICE too. I find enjoyment in the new style of playing, despite how much I do prefer the class locked gadgets and such. I do find the core of this game very very fun. I just wish there was more of it….

[proven saffron]

isnt that you dont get any unlocks while playing vs AI?

[arctic grove]

Lol true I need better emojis for charts lol

[wraith cobalt]

You get all weapon and vehicle unlocks while playing AI

[old mantle]

📉 Dis one

[wraith cobalt]

its just boring af. But way less grind than regular mp tho

[pliant knot]

it’s awesome and so easy to use

[arctic grove]

📉

[old mantle]

But there's like 10x as many rocks as in previous Battlefield games.

[brittle forge]

Holy shit bro 10/10 game of the year

[hollow summit]

Yeah how does EA not understand this by now? Wouldn’t they make more money if they delayed the game a year?

[pliant knot]

what does it matter if the maps are massive if it’s design and playability is ass?

[mental finch]

Honestly, if they ever add a server browser for all out warfare so I can actually fucking pick the ping of the server that I’m joining, I bet a lot of my problems will go bye-bye, just because I’ll be enjoying the game more enough for them to fade. I have terrible luck with servers in this game. It’s not my Internet, I have good Internet, I promise.

[old mantle]

Shareholders would probably have sissy fits if they delayed it another year

[pliant knot]

yea problem are the investors, the guys in suit

[arctic grove]

That was something riiight?

[cosmic radish]

Anyone know a reason to keep playing after you reach S levels ?

[pliant knot]

EA probably couldn’t risk another delay, they gave their investors and guys in suit a certain date and when that date was coming and realized the game was unfinished af they just thought “well a good old BF4 turn it’ll be”

I want to believe DICE knew the game was unfinished af, I refuse to think they were happy with the released product, I know they wanted to delay the game but just couldn’t with EA dudes behind their backs

[balmy falcon]

Tier 1

[arctic grove]

DICE is chasing trends which will "draw in more players" wanted to compromise of what made battlefield great thinking it draw in more playerbase.......the results wasn't what they expected it to be we all those DICE will add destruction 4.0 and better gameplay/team mechanics even more of everything like guns and vehicles DICE advertise "this battlefield will be the biggest and better then all the battlefield combined" only got bigger battlefield with map size 2x big and player in server 2x big the rest was a fallacy

[remote kiln]

hopefully 2042 wins game of the year it's a very well made and polished game

[pliant knot]

grind tier 1 shit

[brittle forge]

Investors are dumb because you think they of all people would realize that releasing a game that’s finished and getting high praise in the long-term is infinitely better than an unfinished mess that is literally more famous for being a mess then a good game. If they wanted holiday sales they could’ve pulled an infinite and delayed the game a whole year

[arctic grove]

I hope cyberpunk 2077 be goty 😎

[brittle forge]

Sorry bro The Last of Us Part 2 sweeps the Game Awards once again.

[arctic grove]

Facts 🙂

[opaque barn]

Tom henderson addresses why all the shit he said would be in 2042 wasn't there.

Development issues

[arctic grove]

Nobody outside of DICE predict this 😉🤣🤣

[opaque barn]

Way ahead of schedule

[old mantle]

They will have made a calculated decision to release the game when they did. They wouldn't have wanted to release it unfinished, but they knew that it was the better option financially over delaying it another year.

[opaque barn]

Unprescendented destruction
No clown Shooters

[arctic grove]

Facts

[pliant knot]

yea EA stock dropped 1 billion dollars in the first delay, imagine a 1 year delay. They should’ve just waited to drop the reveal trailer for devs to have more time to finish the game

[opaque barn]

They changed their mind mid development and dumbed the game down

[storm jolt]

or release hazard zone free while working on the rest

[arctic grove]

Battlefield 2042 felt rush product.....DICE should of delayed till 2022

[frank hare]

The grathics suck ass at max settings

[brittle forge]

I mean the stock got damaged from the release we did get so there’s that

[opaque barn]

Holiday season. Covid . Unsure future development cycles. New battlefield games on the horizon for the bf universe. O god. We got played like a fiddle
