2042 is not a Battlefield game; This is why BF5 will have more and more players.

This won't be a long feedback post.

EA and DICE need someone to hold a mirror to their thick heads, for them to understand what they did wrong.

This is that mirror.

The number one issue with BF2042, is that, it's simply not a Battlefield title.

This game doesn't have ANYTHING to do with the franchise, other than the damn name of the game.

Both 2042 and BF5 had rough launches.

The difference is, BF5 actually had the potential of being a good Battlefield game. 2042 is VERY far from that potential.

Players are going back to BF5 now, because they miss their Battlefield dose- since 2042 does not give you that.

I have never bought a game, and regretted buying it, as fast as I did with 2042.

Within a week I realised the full extent of my mistake.

Within 2 weeks, I realised how stupid I was, to support this dumb mess by buying it.

Within 3 weeks, I was done. Dropped the game faster than I ever have before.

Specialists, specialists, specialists.

Whoever thought about this system, tried to eat a piece of the pie, and leave the pie whole.

(Try to attract players from other games, and hope that the loyal Battlefield playerbase will still like it.)

This system does not fit a Battlefield game. Anyone who truly likes Battlefield will tell you that, instantly.

I regret buying the game.

And I regret letting the refund window slip away from me.

I also regret supporting this mess.

I was hoping that maybe, just maybe, after so many years of disappointments and false hope, DICE and EA will actually care about the product they make, and not focus entirely on how much money the product can make.

I was wrong to have that hope.

  • 2042 is a hero shooter nobody asked for in Battlefield and sadly EA thinks it's the future of the series. So if it's not a 'Battlefield' game now, it will be later

    I've said numerous times that EA decided that Battlefield players are not the target audience for Battlefield 2042.  If you think of it that way, everything makes more sense.

  • I understand that BF2042 is a LOT different than the others, but in the state it’s in, it has some potential.

    EA may possibly change it to the format of V, 1, 4, etc., but it is a matter of time.

    BF2042 is a decent game, it’s just put back by the change in the format.

    I am only really sad about the removal of TDM. They will probably change it at some point but idk.

  • If the fix performance, hit reg, add more guns and maps of Exposure's caliber it will be a decent game when all is said and done. Right now, it feels like a free to play game that just exited beta and definitely far from the AAA game that it supposedly is.

    How can you possibly like TDM in this game? The spawns make no sense. Map size is way too small. Teams just rush around the map. The mode seems like they put it together in a day

    I have played just about every battlefield game since bf bad company what made battlefield great was its realistic combat. Once they tried to as people like you claim innovate which is another word for copy they tried to copy cod and its gameplay and it has gone horrible bf hardliners was a test to that and that game was trash. Nobody is using emotional factors the facts are bf is now a dying franchise it sucks and is horrible to see happen. They should have stuck to there core elements and gameplay not trying to copy other games. Halo tried that when they switched to 343 they tried to copy destiny and that halo tanked just like bf 2042 has even bf5 was not as good as previous bfs.

    I'm going to close this thread as it hasn't been active since 2022. Feel free to create a new one to continue the discussion though.
