Agreed, unfortunately they aren't going to do anything. Another thing that make this game unplayable is the 128 players on breakthrough and even sometimes on conquest. All you end up with is a stalemate between both teams and no way of capturing objectives. It just gets annoying to die....respawn....die... respawn...die after you were beamed by the 50 players on the hill. The game ran a lot smoother and better with 64 players. The maps to are also very bland in my opinion. Having to run for 5 minutes just to be able to get to an objective gets old. This game needs to be completely scrapped and started over. It will be dead within a couple of months at this rate if even that long.
@Theskywalker989With change is the development team at DICE, I don't think we'll ever see BF games like BC2 and BF1 again. The studio is going in a new direction of chasing trends and copying the competition instead using their own creative minds like they have been for the past 20 years. 2042 might be one of the worst games I have every played in my life and I have been gaming since Playstation 1.
If I blind tested 2042, not knowing it was a Battlefield game I would've thought it was a BF knockoff from another company instead of a game from DICE.
With such overwhelming negativity towards the direction of the game, I fully expected them to come out, apologize, admit that they made a tremendous mistake, fix it and give fans want they want. Remove specialists, tone down the player movement, take out 3rd person takedowns. Completely revert the game back to the core of BF.
When Ubisoft released Ghost Recon Breakpoint and received huge negative backlash for bringing the gear level system into the game from The Division, they publicly apologized to the community, admitted they made a mistake and re-worked the game for the fans. That is an admirable move for a AAA studio. Ubisoft listened to what the fans wanted Breakpoint to be and to be honest Breakpoint has turned into a pretty good game. Ubisoft is one of the few AAA studios that actually cares about their fans and community. DICE could learn something about giving fans what they want and not things they didn't ask for.
DICE is following hyper analytics of what has worked for other games like Apex and Warzone. They tried implement those mechanics into BF and it just doesn't work. BF has it's own fanbase, while Warzone, Apex have their own. 2042 would've been much better received and successful if it just adhered to what the fans of the franchise want and stuck to it's core. The change DICE did the Battlefield would be the equivalent to Activision making the next CoD multiplayer like a previous Battlefield game. With classes, first person takedowns, slower player movement etc. and I would safely assume the CoD fanbase would not welcome those changes.
DICE hasn't even acknowledged the overwhelming disappointment from the fans and yet posts on their Twitter account like 2042 is some wild, booming success.
I will for sure not ever buy another DICE game on release ever again. I know former DICE members who worked on previous BF games started their own studio and are working on a multiplayer game. We'll have to keep an eye on it and see how it turns out.
@RacialAdhesive- Very well put. I personally have started playing Farcry and Halo and enjoying those at the moment. That's a good way of putting it, that it feels like a knockoff. I truthfully wouldn't be as negative toward it if I knew it was a knock-off. I just keep trying to get back on it but I can't last more than 20mins til I'm fed up with the specialist, glitches, and large number of players. WHY DICE!! Waste of money.
How do we officially make a poll to remove these stupid super hero specialists? Completely ruins the game.
