The rorsch is so overpowered it is ridicolous.
Even when you have one in your squad. Leik.. We start the round and by the time we have run 200 meters, the teamate with the rorsch have cleaned half the map.
And the cheaters as well, they exploit the op of rorsch so one never can actually pinpoint if it is cheat or just luckyshots. For example, Last night my friend got taken out in free fall, and i got taken out in highspeed in a car right after.
And not to mentioned the campers in the towers with rorsch. Many players quit the round when they see the rorsch being used.
One shot, no bulletfall, instant death. Meh..
And Yes, people play HZ. Hazard zone has grown near and dear for many players. Especially in the evening there is good traffic in HZ. And alot of newbies also are setting roots in hz. And the players of HZ usually ONLY play the HZ mode. Not even touching the other modes.

Hazard Zone did irreparable damage to the game by simply being created.
In any case. Hazard zone was abandoned long ago with very few patches that almost nobody cares about because almost nobody plays it.

@UP_HawxxeyeHow even.. It is a lovely mode where people who like more strategic play. And a tight community where people actually recognise each other. (of the usuals)
One get a sense of the squadmates playstyle, without having to deal with 50 other players in a hallway. A fine "laidback" version of bf with true squad-feel.100+ people daily is nobody now.. ? Sad. :/
- Vridner2 years agoNew Rookie@UP_Hawxxeye They did a little patching on it now recently, made it less focused on using forever to find deploys with fixing icons on map and not only have the meters, but a visible deploy in game as well. So kudos to whoever put in a word for that fix!
It is ridiculous being nerfed on certain modes where there are no players, restricted weapons/abilities - when the only mode that have substance, Hz, have exploitive aspects well known by the ones who use them. Bad game balance, even worse when you know the individuals choose between this and all out hacks to gain OP metrics. Its one gun, one overlook tactic. Or right out cheats.
Hazard is becoming niche after devs chose to not continue development and its a shame the balance can be so insulting when actually supporting community. This isnt ubisoft.- UP_Hawxxeye2 years agoLegend
@Ultrafuz
In my defense, I said ALMOST nobody.
~100 players or some number near it is close to nobody for the scale of a mainstream game in a Battlefield series, a single 128 man server can have more people. They would be rather few even for a small indie game.
I will not say that there cannot be people who like it, but even near launch, the numbers were much smaller than what DICE would consider worth their resources.
But it is nice that they did eventually patched some stuff for HZ. - Vridner2 years agoNew Rookie
I pre-ordered 2042. At launch the HZ was a complete mess. And very restricted with what one could bring in, even had that currency going that really was a turn off for most players.
But eventually they refined the HZ, removed the currency, made it more basic and easier to jump in for people that was not interested using 10 rounds just to understand the dynamic. It is Still not obvious for first time players, but its good compared to what it was.
It's mostly level 200 - 999 players that play hz as regulars.
I am a diehard bf fan from the original Battlefield 2, and so far in bf 2042 the focus was too much on grindy crammed maps. The big maps at launch was a fresh breeze to the bf era, tho little bit empty maps.. (hourglass v1 in mind). And the whole buggy game at launch did not help.
I think HZ does really have potential, if it get a little fineadjusting/expansion and a more immersive intro for firstimeplayers, i think it will flourish.
it have changed the mecanics from launch, and got a bad rumor because of the launch edition.
Besides, to say that HZ damaged the bf2042 in whole is a little bit extreme when it comes to how * the game was overall at launch.
