BF2042 Youtube Rant!

A bit annoying rant but fair. Also, some clips shown how broken game is atm. And neither did i see any huge explosions, marketing trailer had them fairly. 🙄 It's not that I need them, it's the whole marketing, showcasing product vs reality.

Lol worth watching. So true, 2042 is not Battlefield.

I was watching GetGoodGuys stream and it was absolutely horrible.  Most people say "oh, don't listen to the YouTubers", blah, blah, blah.  But this happened right before my eyes.  He was playing on Portal and:

1.  Couldn't ADS with one of his weapons.  Switching between secondary and back to primary didn't work.  He had to die twice i think before it was fixed.

2.  Got stuck in death animation

3.  Movement was laggy as hell.

4.  Hit registration was beyond awful.  He would be pouring bullets into some enemies and they just wouldn't die.  The only weapon that was decent was the PP-29

You'd think he was maybe just a bad player.  But then he gets into a game of TDM and goes like 17-2.  He was just beyond frustrated.

The servers are just beyond awful and it clearly shows that this game was NOT ready.  But EA had to get this out to meet their quarterly earnings quota I imagine.

They were also lamenting how the base game with its wide open maps in areas with 128 players just doesn't work.   I find watching most of the streamers play to be pretty boring on these maps as well.  Just a real lack of flow to the game.  And I doubt it will get any better with the masses joining in on Friday.

Then while making some dinner I watched MattiAce cut his stream short because of how frustrating and boring he said the game was.  

I don't make my purchases solely on what YouTubers present but I've played about 1/2 of my 10 hr trial and its not great.  I had no interest in using up my 10 hours all at once.  It was an hour or so each time and was fine logging off.  I'll use it when the full access launch happens and see how the game plays then.    But its clear that this is not the type of Battlefield that players were anticipating or hoping for after 3 years of development and having devs being pulled off of other projects.

Why can my 9x18 kill faster than a 762x54?

Bloom.

Why tho

@Battlefield3_95Angryjoe is a Garbage casual MP players , he plays mostly single player game and he as NEVER EVER been a regular Battlefield players , he plays few hours to put out a reviews and take other peoples opinions like a sponge to give him more credibility .. He made a montage of Reddit users videos of BF 2042 bugs as if this type of * happen to him on a regular basis , its the type of stuff that happen to me once in like 15 hours of playtime 

Angryjoe as probably less than 30 hours of BF played across all freaking games put toghueter and his first BF game was probably BF3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Khzm7UtAJ1s

He never ever gave specialist a fair chance and came to BF2042 with the ideas preconceive that only portal would be good , even if portal as the same freaking gameplay as the base game ... he didnt even tried the game properly in a objective manners , he only Perrots the Reddit hate train " Hive mind BS " that BF are classes and BS like that even if anyones who knows what battlefield as been trough the entire series knows that classes have switch and change from games to games BFBC1 use to have a support that was a Medic a repair guy and a mortar caller .. while a Demolition guy had rockets and shotguns only and so on ..The specialist system is perfect for the game and the freedom to create classes is way better than rigid non sensicle classes system with lock weapons that dosnt fit situations or maps ..

the new system allow more teamwork not less ..

ALSO WHAT IS BATTLEFIELD ? NOT A CLASSES GAME BUT A COMBINE ARMS GAME WITH INFANTRY COMBAT AND VEHICLES AND ITS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS AND ITS AN AWESOME GAME

@Battlefield3_95Basic thing I saw there that would make me mad as hell, is shooting someone obviously dead on, they better * die, but then they simply kill me. Screw that, this is the most basic thing that needs to work.

If i were to get comically worked up about the game, that would probably be close to my own rant.

But just about all the points in that video have been echoed here by testers *long* before launch, including things said about how HZ would turn out (granted, that was guesswork, it just sadly turned out to be more or less correct) and to just keep specialists in that mode, old classes/movement/gunplay, etc etc.

We have what we have, seeing as this has been a running opinion battle now since 4 came out (re; catering to other franchise ideas rather than refining their own) it's been enough battlefields since 4 to see that they've either wanted to change it up or it's simply not the same staff anymore and the game reflects that (another point brought up repeatedly here over the last few months)

My only real gripe even now after having put quite a few hours into the "finished" product is really just the initial marketing.

They can do what they want with the game, I'll either like it or not and play accordingly (much like 1 and 5, ie; not much if i don't) but the initial marketing for both core and portal was 100% a "look, we're going back to the old stuff you liked so much" and what came after not only wasn't, but it was obvious as could be it was never intended to be, and that will cost them my pre-order from now on as the last of the credit built up from 1942 to BF4 is now gone after 1/battlefront/5.

(and to be clear here, i don't think 1 and 5 were garbage as many think, i just disliked how the play/guns/movement started turning more and more CoD-like, if i wanted to play that I'll play that, same with 2042 and the hero shooter thing)

Either way, up to them now, at this point I'd be happy if they un-borked most of the infantry weapons and toned down the vehicle spam a bit, if nothing else so i could make up my mind about the game without knowing i'm "fighting" the game trying to test it out properly.
