This game needs to die now

This game needs to die now, and be replaced by something else, that hopefully has not had any involvement from these clearly silly non-testing people that are and have been involved with it, so we hopefully end up with a great game like the Battlefield franchise used to be.

The Rubber Banding, LAG and Net Code issues are terrible. The sheer lack of maps, No Campaign mode, Sound issues and No Server Browser with no real Chat feature until recently all equates to Half A Game.

The Shotguns are so useless now, you may as well be firing doughnuts at people.

The Machine Gun spread is now so pathetic that there is absolutely no point whatsoever to use things like tactical compensators and bipods . . . . You know, the very things that are supposed to stop the spread and make them more accurate to begin with.

Also, I would like to see the Digital Laws catch up with this kind of sales in relation to refunds for games that are so clearly un-finished that we are able to get our money back and return the product if physical, or run an uninstall file from the maker's to remove any trace of the game so we can get our money back.

Perhaps then it will make them re-focus on actually finishing a game that is fit for purpose as opposed to constantly nerfing and patching some two

Years After Release, So We Don't End Up All Being Paying Beta Testers And Return To Being Customers, Like We Used To Be.

I have absolutely no idea how some of the players have put in the amount of hours they have, I can't manage more than an hour or so before giving up due to the things mentioned above.

  • The game is already dying: there are fewer and fewer players, you have difficulty filling the servers. Dice and EA managed to destroy this beautiful license;

    Everything mentioned in your thread is spot on, bullet spread no server browser, netcode and let's not forget specialists!

    This game was a Battle Royal never a Battlefield.

    With all due respect.
    We will not get a finished next BF game sooner if 2042 dies now.
    It needs to hold the fort until DICE can finally deliver a solid game for the first time in ~6 years.

    You can however trust that most people will drop 2042 unless it has some good extra content down the line.

    One can tell the declining interest by how fewer posters are regulars around here compared to 1 year ago

  • LMGs. Lol. There's literally just the PP-29, SFAR, RM68, G46, and BSVM worth using now.

  • Season 6 will be out soon and with possible talks of season 7 coming as well hopefully the game may pick up.

    There is talk the new battlefield may not surface till 2025

  • Hi

    Lagwise - do you play cross-play on or off ? This thing should never have been invented nor implemented. Consoles belong in one world and pc players in another. Ping limits on servers is a must - always been like that. 20 ms players and 300 ms (or worse) cannot play on same server - but of course this boils down  to the usual - money !

    The little 500 shotgun is better than the 870 shotgun. Only shotguns worth of use is the auto shotguns. 

    But I will still state - this game is way better now than when launched back then. I enjoy playing this game despite many things. I do not feel that lag and rubber-banding is that huge problem - but of course also depends where you are at. I only play on Europe servers (according to my low ping 20 ms ish). 

    I do however not like the constant patching and nerfing / buffing of guns. You use one / learn it and then suddenly it is crap and you need to use another one. Hate concept of meta guns - there should be no such thing - all guns should have pros and *. If all use same gun all of sudden then something is unbalanced - like the pp-29 - same range and accuracy as assault gun and that is dead wrong. SMG = short range gun.

    Next BF - perhaps better who knows - but compared to this one - they def. need to make things diff. Perhaps look at old recipe for BF4 - that was a great one !

  • No it doesn't, it's not even born alive, so how can it die? They won't admit this feature they dare to call a bf game
