A Festive Update from the Battlefield 2042 Team

Sad times that people get excited if they vaguely announce to bring a season with HALF the content we usually get. And your are honestly staring to find that amount of content remotely acceptable?

True, better than just one map -- but still, this leaves me baffled truly baffled I must confess.

Maybe I am wrong and we really get a normal content drop with 4 maps as basically EVERYONE would have expected per season before the game came out. Then it would still be nothing exceptional -- OK, maybe in BF2042 marketing speak it would -- but then I would get why they used the wording 'with a bang' in the announcement. Two maps does not yet count as a 'bang' in my book. But maybe we are still pleasantly surprised and they now really finally start to deliver. Wouldn't get my hopes up yet though.

And the fact that one of these maps is content that was removed from the game for several months. They're reworking half a map, and somehow the community thinks they're getting two. KEKL. It doesn't get any better than this. I guess Seasons 2 and 3 had three maps, this is still a downgrade.

We can choose to sit in a corner and pout because Battlefield is no longer getting the same content as in the days with paid DLCs.

Or we can accept that things have changed and then be happy when something exceeds our new, lower expectations.

I choose to be happy 🙂

And I can choose to accept it costs $3000 a month to rent a closet in North America and $2 a millilitre of gas but I don't.

Heh, that update made me smile 🙂

or maybe more than 4 friends can play together

Well, I'm happy with Elves and Pondhawk swarms for now - time to grind the "recoiless"!

A server browser is the only xmas gift we want

I just can't believe they are leaving the game in this state before leaving for a month, right when other games are popular (WZ, Finals, etc). Peak and average player counts are plummeting, but even with 10K on SteamCharts, I end up in empty lobbies waiting for players. 

Great job on that amazing MM you guys came up with. Please give those devs silver stars and a cookie for making players wait in empty lobbies and play in games with half bots. Brilliance in action. 

How sad. The first event of the week is just a ported version of the Afghanistan war Sim from portal LMAO. EA and Dice are taking notes from Fntastic and the day before.

Battlefield 2042 is over two years old. We should have thirty maps by now with a server browers.

EA and Dice live in this fantasy world. They think they are doing a great job and patting themselves on the back. In reality, it's the players that are making the game better.
