Steam Offering Refunds
So it appears that Steam have decided to offer refunds for 2042 owners who have passed the 2 hour playtime cutoff, so now's your chance to recoup your cash from this blackhole. It's going to be i...

I'll be nice and play fair, we don't see in the Battlefield
If this a case-by-case thing than it does matters.
This thread is implying that Steam is doing an easy refund but they don’t.
OP has not even linked the source because then you could read that these are probably individual cases.
There are many players that have tried it over and over again and don't get a refund.
In this forum are still many players that complaining and have put over 250h in the game.
If I don’t like the game, I don’t put so many hours in it and when you do it, it's a bit hypocritical.
And if steam now again refuses most refunds, we have again unnecessary complaints that were artificially fueled by some content creators and media.
WoW great times to be part of the Battlefield community ☹️
So, be nice, play fair and see you on the Battlefield.
I would like to point out that my original post I says "it APPEARS Steam are giving refunds"
Here's one source https://www.newsweek.com/battlefield-2042-steam-refund-policy-player-count-1667922#:~:text=The%20launch%20of%20Battlefield%202042,out%20back%20in%20October%202021.
Here's another https://www.dexerto.com/battlefield/steam-issues-refunds-for-battlefield-2042-as-player-count-plummets-1736916/
Here's another https://charlieintel.com/steam-giving-battlefield-2042-refunds-as-players-claim-the-game-as-broken/156056/
These were all easy to find with Google, in case you're struggling to find a source for something in the future.
You're right though it could be a case by case basis. But even if it is what is the harm of me posting it to inform people that there's a chance, however slim, to get their money back?
Misleading post imo as it sounded like Steam have a blanket offer open for anyone to refund where in actual fact it looks like you have to really keep hammering them with evidence to show that the game won't work. Broken games that don't actually work are a very different thing to games that no one likes and are full of bugs.
It is mildly interesting that they have refunded some people but thqtw about it.

So, for me this implies that Steam is going to refund the game to every one who want to but they don’t.
Also, I have read these articles before you have now linked them here and all are referring to one post of a redit user. Yeah, that’s a proof of concept.
And what harm can this thread or these articles do? You ask that? How many will now go and try it again and again to get a refund but will fail on Steam, what do you think who they will blame?
Not Steam they will blame EA/DICE for it but guess what these issues than is created buy such threads, news article and videos of content creators.
And with “Regardless, it is another nail in the coffin of 2042.” you clearly show that you do not like the game and that this thread only continues to fuelling the fire.

I've been on the periphery with this one as I'm not a Steam user but, from what I gather, this isn't a blanket policy from them. Some people will be able to get a refund outside of the general policy, like if they're having massive technical issues or it's their 'freebee', but it'd be the exception rather than the norm.
There's lots of posts on the 2042 Steam forums about this topic right now and the majority of people seem to be reporting getting declined still.
- @ElliotLH Thats exactly what I found when I looked into it. Shame though because that would have shaken things up a bit and potentially made Origin offer the same.

"So, for me this implies that Steam is going to refund the game to every one who want to but they don’t." Just because that's the way YOU read it doesn't make it true it just makes it your (incorrect) interpretation.
I'm not responsible for the actions of others. If people try to get a refund because of this thread and they don't get one that's not on me. If they choose to blame EA/Dice that's not on me either, you know why? Because everyone is responsible for their own actions.
You're right I don't like the game I even got my refund and as this is a public forum I'm allowed to post anything that doesn't contravene the rules. If I wanted to "fuel the fire" I'd post a whole lot more than someone getting a Steam refund.
Just a newsflash for you, people are allowed to post their views even if they are *shock* *horror* not positive about the game. They are even allowed to post them over and over again as long as they don't contravene the forum rules. You like the game and post what I consider to be utter drivel but regardless of my views on your posts I wouldn't want you to not post your views. Why? You're entitled to them and I'm not really into the idea of suppressing other peoples opinions or views, especially with the aim of protecting a multi billion dollar company.
You're little sign off is cute but what's really funny/ironic/hypocritical about it is that it's always posted in such a passive aggressive manner.
Anyways have a good day and I've got my fingers crossed that you get the Hero role you're desperately angling for.

I have not written anywhere that you are not allowed to express your opinion you can do it in the way you want but guess what I can answer in my way here if I stick to the rules of EA/DICE for this forum 😉
Interesting is also that is for some here is ok to spread hatred/toxicity here if they do not like a game but when people like the game their opinion it is "utter drivel"?
Maybe I help you here you forgot to add EA/DICE defender or future EA/DICE employee in your sentence 😉
You like my post-closing “Be nice, play fair and see you on the Battlefield”, it is interesting that always the same type of people here needs to comment about it.
“desperately angling“ ? This makes me laugh hard mate., these posts are my opinion, you like it or you like it not.
Also I think I'm not on the radar of EA/DICE here, I'm only are small average forum user.
Be nice, play fair and see you on the Battlefield
