I'm not going to buy the next BF game until it's on sale. I'm also skeptical about the upcoming NFS, because I see the same problems coming. 2042 was a lesson for me.
I think a lot of people are blinded here because they don't want to acknowledge the truth or don't know any different. But seriously now. Every shooter on the market runs smoother (tick rate of the servers, hitreg,...). The content with each session is minimal. The problems are deeply rooted in the engine and who saw the last dev interview will also hear that between the lines. They talked about Houreglass not being the first map to be reworked because it's too big. They needed more than 3 months for Kalaidoskop, how long do they need for a 4 times bigger map. They also talked about an "asset count".
That exists in every game, but compared to BF V, BF 1, etc. the maps of 2042 are empty. They just added sandbags. The "new" bunkers (from BF4) are also empty. Tables, chairs, like in BF1 and BF V are missing in the wonhouses on Houreglass. That already speaks for the fact that they were omitted, because of the asset count.
I still remember how the first in the Early Access week said that is still an old version and in the release week comes the final version. Exactly the same, if not more can be blinded again, as they manage to release 1 map 1 specialist and 2 weapons after 3 months. "It will be better in the next Battlefield". I think not.
Squad management, points for conquering, server browser, etc are missing even after almost a year.
And these circumstances are enough for you to keep buying games for 80$? Don't get ripped off.
