Took a few weeks off prior to the new season release. Just jumped in again on Saturday to see what was new and improved and quickly discovered that while there was a new map nothing was improved, nothing has really changed, nothing was fixed that had any real value. Same sad situation and the realization that I wasted a couple of hours in my weekend. My next game is pre-ordered and soon to be a thing as real as this game being removed permanently from my computer.

I keep trying playing the game, but it is so bad/broken that I manage to do the weekly missions and cannot really take any more than that.
While Dice has improved/fixed a lot of things, it is just not enough. The game still has bugs everywhere and any feeling of playing BF is almost totally lost in stupid design decisions.
- Twordy3 years agoSeasoned Ace@cso7777 Exactly. I make weekly missions, get all weapons... and poof ALT+F4.
CONQUEST
Design choices do not serve the purpose of conquest, especially the lack of classes with assigned primary weapons and side equipment. The game becomes less readable, with less necessity to cooperate. Skins do not make me stay in the BF, but friends who may find the game enjoyable.
RENTABLE SERVERS
Community servers have been for me and many of my friends the main fun factor. I meet many of them in person more than annually! We do communicate on Teamspeak and Discord every day. Disappointment with 2042s advertisement, launch, and content after 10 months is real or at least putting it mildly.
VEHICLE BALANCE
I have nothing against strong vehicles, but any of them needs a weak spot. Some cannons are OP. Actually, 50mm of the main attack chopper is heavily underpowered now. 40mm grenade launcher in a flying fortress is pure cancer. There is no way to 3D spot a vehicle in 2042 (yes, orange triangle, Dorito, or red vehicle icon visible for the entire team) which makes them additionally unfriendly for casuals paradoxically. Only spotted on the minimap.
REWORKS
What happened to the Kaleidoscope "redesign" is far more boxes and changed elevation. No complex buildings or reasonable structures to help with the game flow whatsoever.
FIRST 1 MIN IN GAME
Players have to watch a pointless cutscene, then forcefully spawn when the match begins. Could someone in DICE let me configure my weapon first and SKINS!?
PURPOSE
No dedicated servers with customizable map or game mode rotation. No Squad Management, No Clan page, No Commander, No more maps, No division of roles in Conquest that promote cooperation... but more skins.
Pre-ordering next BF... I spent 30 bucks on the game just to write about misery. - 3 years ago

Pre-ordering next BF... I spent 30 bucks on the game just to write about misery.I agree with everything here you made a excellent post/feedback but i have a question what do you think of the new sizes of the objectives on kolidascope?.
For me i think the objective size is massive to the point it rewards campers now with pac nerfed its a giant marco polo search until polo takes you out then your like oh under that dumpster inside that bush with a ntw50. Respawn you go there but that person relocated so its marco polo all over again.

Yep, lag is horrible right now, hit reg is worse and now this weird delay and stuttering when trying to fire weapons has made it really tough to try and play right now.
Clean-up on Aisle 2042 EA/Dice ASAP!

Your'e right it is a chore to play at the moment, there is no fun playing when the game's in this state.
DICE please address these issues asap so we can get back to playing BF2042 the way it should be played.

- 3 years ago@Ironhead841 The devs will not even answer any of these issues to the players. But soon as someone says OH BF THANK YOU FOR SEASON 2 ITS A GREAT GAME NOW ! The devs are all over it saying thank you we listened to the players and want to bring you the best BF experience and continue to improve and give you what you want. Lol
- I_DYN4MO_I3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Sc0tch_Whiskey I’m more baffled why DICE chose to work on things like - “fixed issues with weather effects not being consistent on Angles ammo load out crate” or “Angels ammo pouch is now easier to throw towards friendlies that need ammo” or “soldier incridental animations”
Like, wake up DICE. Why don’t you fix the game breakers that people have been enduring since launch? And if that’s beyond you, refund everyone. - Anobix3 years agoSeasoned Ace

And if that’s beyond you, refund everyone.My only guess is that it would be separate teams/developers/etc that are doing the animation, art, direction, etc in that regard versus untangling years of spaghetti code to force it to do what they want/need it to do.
I will admit the throwing+homing of ammopacks and the syrette pistol is useful. The pistol still will randomly not follow a teammate that you targeted and other times seem to curve like the briefcase throws in the latest Hitman games.

@Anobix
Well yeah they’ll have separate teams working on different things but its all about priorities and more mismanagement.I mean these are bugs that severely affect gameplay. It’s like a 10 month beta test. We’ve shelled out premium prices so we should expect the game to function on a basic level at the very least. Especially since “all hands on deck” and it being 10 months since release.

No disagreement here. I firmly have to believe it is "all hands on deck" for Battlefield... as a whole... and a few hands and feet on 2042.
