I forgot how awful I was at this game
So I decided to reinstall BF2042 and do a little bit of grinding on the battle pass to get a few camos, just mess around, that sort of thing.
Now I'm remembering why I quit playing. 130 hours in, level 93-94, and I'm just AWFUL. Can't win a single gunfight. Can't get near an objective without somebody I never see stepping out and killing me instantly. Insta-deaths abounding. I admit I wasn't doing great on the BF6 beta but I was doing better than this! I stick my head up out of cover, I just die instantly, and not always to snipers either.
Not quite sure what to do, tbh. I'm an objective player, I like supporting the team with revives and heals and ammo, and flag caps and all that rather than just grabbing for kills, but it's not like I can help my team out when I'm going 1-12, y'know?
Has the playstyle changed since season 2 or so? I'm not accusing anybody of cheating but man the playerbase that's left here is freaking GOOD.
