What a time to be alive (Battlenite 2042 trailer)

This new trailer "what a time to be alive" is describes everything, that is wrong with that game. Seriously Dice, is this game made for 12 year old kids? Do you want to catch the fortnite audience?

You build that serious and believable world (clima crisis, nations crumbling, no-pats) and yet, you bring in some clown shows. Yep, really hope this game fails harder than BFV. At least BFV was a Battlefield and not some rip-off of other franchises, to grab some money.

A friendly hello to all the fanboys, that will send some hate towards my direction: In 6 weeks, when you realize what a cash grab this game is, you will come here in the forums and do the exact same as me. I will be there and tell you, that i told you. Have a nice evening 🙂

    @VOLBANKER_PC Yeah, not impressed. I was excited about getting two new AAA shooters this Fall, but I won't be getting either one this time around, sadly.

    Loool, what was this I just watched? And what's up with the "What a time to be alive!" catch phrase!?

    I'm an avid Battlefield fan and even I have no idea what's going on.

    @TickTack121 The game will fail for those who clearly WANT it to fail.

    Its literally a fun trailer that clearly said "not gameplay" on it... i for one LOVED the beta despite some issues - really cant wait to start from level 0 and work my way up.

    I think people are going overboard with saying its fundamentally different? - in theory its not besides specialists..

    Literally big maps, conquest, vehicles, no more exit animations (back to OG battlefield).. the game is set in 2042, the guns arent gunna feel like OG Battlefield because they are futuristic... i think this is where people are getting it all wrong.

    The game just FEELS different because of the setting. I agree and wish there were class limitations.. i honestly am fine with specialists, but they should have kept certain equipment like med bags ONLY for the medics etc...

    But yeah, not having a go at people, everyone can have their own opinion but i think people are being too harsh without properly even playing the final version.

    @BuzzfunkWell, it makes me sad. I’m not a “real BF veteran” as I only started playing from BF4 and onwards, but that doesn’t change the fact that I really like the franchise. I don’t play any computer games at all except for Battlefield - I even bought one of the new consoles with the sole purpose of playing the then upcoming Battlefield game on it. To see the people behind the game turn in into something so fundamentally different from what previous games in the franchise were about…it just sucks.

    To those saying that bf has never been a gritty game I point you to all the sp campaigns of the past games. Those are the best barometer as to the tone of the series and the commercial is diametrically opposed to them.

    It felt like they were trivializing war and turning it into a sports franchise.

    Not to mention that we are still neck deep into a pandemic that's killed almost 5 million people and you decide to go with "what a time to be alive"!?!

    Not sure who came up with this but I hope they never touch anything bf related again.

    @TickTack121 Idk, man. That trailer isn't that bad. lol!! Funny when Brady 2042 shows up on the billboard lol!! You see all the sandbox chaos going on.

    Clearly this is aimed at the COD crowd, not Fortnite. COD does these type of commercials all the time.

    @nickmajic It feels different, because the engine has changed, not because of the setting; it's the way the game actually plays (mechanics). It feels almost like they put the Apex code underneath this thing, and I HATE that game.

    Wow.

    Is this literal revenge for the specialist feedback?
