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...

@FatherDed Really glad to hear you are getting enjoyment from the game at last.
Hopefully the updates tomorrow and next week will improve things even more. 🙂 Personally I am still experiencing some performance issues which doesn't help the enjoyment factor.
I am still not a big fan of some of the maps compared to previous BF's and I think 7 maps is a bit sparse. Still don't like matchmaking etc but hopefully the game will be in a better place after more updates and additional maps.
You mentioned playing solo I assume that's on Portal. It may be something I should try out, as you say its good for learning maps and testing new guns etc.

@RayD_O1 I retract all positivity from the previous post. It must have been a blip! Had a couple of rounds this evening and it was back to the usual miserable experience. I'm only playing at this point in the hope of major improvements coming soon.
I think you're right about the maps. Think the 128 player thing just doesn't work at least on these maps. But uts hard to put your finger on the main cause with so many things off.
The sound is a major bug bear for me. I'd taken for granted how good it was in BF5 and how much situational awareness it gave you. And now that's been almost totally taken away. I'm constantly getting taken by surprise, even by vehicles you should hear a mile away.
Hoping the patch tomorrow and the following one s a sizeable step forward. Although I'm amazed that they're nerfing the night bird and hovercraft but no mention of the bolte. It's at least as big a problem as the other 2. They need to be made slower, less nimble. They're so hard to combat.
Patience is thin now. There needs to be at least a glimmer of light soon.
- @FatherDed That pretty much sums it up, the 128 player thing definitely does not work imho. Its a lottery on these maps and the number of times I have spawned and died in a split second makes it difficult to get any consistency or enjoyment. You can have a bit of fun one map and the next one you get slaughtered. I know gaming can be like that but to me it is much more apparent in BF2042 on these maps with 128 players than in previous battlefields. I gave the solo play a go and I agree it helps to get to know your weapons better etc, thanks for the tip. Those bots are not the sharpest tools in the drawer, my K/D never looked so good 🙂. Do those stats count overall. ?
