Massively disappointed with BF 2042
Have to say BF2042 IS a massive disappointment, not what I had expected or hoped for. I dislike the whole menu system, very clunky and not intuitive at all. I hate not having a server browser and h...

@UP_Hawxxeye Exactly, the core game lacks many basic requirements which are fundamental to enjoying this type of game.
@RayD_O1 It is becoming more common in modern games that we have to ask ourselves each time: "How did they not see things our way?"
- @UP_Hawxxeye Or at least have considered what players were expecting and stated simply that the game was going to take a different or hybrid direction.
It’s patently obvious in the subtleties of their decisions that the designers have targeted a different type/gen of players, and wanted to try something new.
Can’t fault them for that…..
But for us oldies, who have settled into a comfortable norm, change is a totall pain. And will moan like victor meldrew.
Can’t say I’m pleased myself with the current state, and am hopeful it will change.I can always go play BF4. My comfort zone.
But I do feel somewhat sad that it’s gone in this direction, as it’s not what I’m interested in and it feels like a bit of a massive gambit. Would have been much better if they established a clearer definition of game styles, Royal, Classic, Modern, Milsim. Comes to kind.
Royal - is, well royal.
Classic - would be bf1/2/3/4
Modern - would be this love child of Royal/Classic. What bf2042 feels like now
Milsim - would be Hardcore bf4 + Squad like elements.
Now that I could down with. And could have been delivered through preconfigured custom servers.- @FlibberMeister Very valid points and yes us oldies do not respond that well to change, at least not these type of changes which seem like a retrograde step. And Victor Meldrew would seem like a saint compared with some of my in-game rants, I am not sure how my wife puts up with me haha. I do like your point about defined game styles I could definitely run with that also.
- @UP_Hawxxeye Yep they have made a lot of glaringly obvious wrong assumptions this time around IMHO.
