Who thought that increasing scope glint was a good idea

Half of the entire point of being a sniper is being stealthy. Now I get having high magnification scopes reveal snipers so they aren't effectively untouchable, but now being sneaky is EFFECTIVELY IMP...

@UP_Hawxxeye Baloney. All the parts were there. The modes, the weapons and tools, the maps. It was easy to ignore the royale mode, not like anyone was active there.

All I can say is after the slow pace of the last 2 games I was eager for a return to gameplay like this. Far better than 1 and 5. But the trolls dug into 2042 and managed to ruin it.

@59hushy6ywi8 

LOL yup, all the parts were there alright, everything except players....

Just because you keep repeating the same nonsense over and over again doesn't make it true.

This game is in a FAR better state today than it was even a few months ago.

It doesn't sound to me like you EVER liked Battlefield and prefer the Arena shooters/COD/Apex style of gameplay.

    @Ironhead841 I didn't seem to have trouble finding games at the time. Point out where it's nonsense. It started off better than it is now, these are just the facts.

    BF1/5 sucked. BF3/4, this was 2042 at launch and what I've been waiting for. Now it's some indecisive mess that prioritizes * on infantry.

    Coming from UT/Quake, yeah the speed of BF3/4/2042 was better. CoD or Apex are trash. I did try Doom, Overwatch, and Pubg for a while. But that doesn't change the fact this game is sinking quick.

    @59hushy6ywi8 

    No, what you are stating is an OPINION, the facts don't bear out your OPINION, yet you continue to cling to it.

    The FACTS are when this game launched according to Steam numbers (the only metric we have unfortunately) player counts immediately started to plummet, plateauing at a measly 3000-5000 peak player counts and 2000-3000 average players in a 24-hour period.

    Since the first update (Season 1) player counts have steadily improved to where we are now with 18000-21000 peak player counts and 7000-9000 average player counts in a 24-hour period.

    These FACTS are why your OPINION that the game is somehow worse now and sinking due to the improvements/changes being made is in fact nonsense.

    @Ironhead841 That tiny segment doesn't speak for the game as a whole. Furthermore the game has been on sale and given away for free which explains the mild bump.

    The fact stands that the fun is being actively removed from the game through nerfs, locks, and lack of content. All initiated by trolls voting for the wrong things since day 1. I mean you can't argue with that, look at it. Frankly anyone who voted for classes should be kicked out for what they've done.

    @59hushy6ywi8You sir are a *. You doesn't know what a fact is. What's "fun" to you isn't a "fact". It's your subjective (garbage) opinion.
    I'll give you a concrete fact. In May of 2022, 2042 had a whopping 1,945 average players. Bf1, a "bad game" according to you, only dropped that low in 2020, four full years after its release. And that was only on an off month, It went right back up to 10k the following months. Again this game is 7 years old.
    Weird you say 2042 is sinking now, when in a single month it dropped 30 thousand players back in November of 2021. At launch. When most games peak.

    @59hushy6ywi8 your entire second paragraph is an opinion. You're writing out of rage.

    @TheseusJason How is that opinion? What hasn't been removed or nerfed and had a negative effect on BF? They should have made new maps instead of catering to trolls. They should have stayed with the original vision instead of selling us a game and sweeping the rug from under us.

    A little rage yeah. I want my money back or BF to return to how it was in Feb before the great nerf. This now, isn't BF. And no to refer to a previous point, nothing can be as bad as CoD. Actually by adding stale or outdated features to BF that's what emulates CoD most accurately.

    @VOLBANKER_PC It's not trolling when I'm right. Someone needs to be honest around here.

    @59hushy6ywi8 How are you this dense. Fun is subjective. That means it's your opinion. Fact is objective. It means there is data. You saying "I think it used to be better" is not a fact. Please go back to fifth grade. You must have missed a few things.

    @SilentReavus I didn't say "I think it was better", I said it WAS better. We change from opinion to fact. Too much was removed or nerfed, and new content never really arrived. Dropping playercount says it all. I think it sucks because we had a decent BF in the beginning. Now you're lucky if the people that got a copy for $5 stays to play. Of course they'll care less at that price.
