For me the addition of operators/specialists whatever they are called was what ruined it. What was wrong with classes and being able to build my gear around that? I don't need a personality to my soldier, it used to be an empty canvas full of posibilities.

[@nickbuckley4371]

They went back to a semi class system

[@somethingcliched4921]

The beauty of Battlefield is the sandbox. And 2042 limited its sandbox by going the specialist/operator route. My favourite example to point to, is that in BF4 you can run a 3 shotgun loadout as an assault, yep, shotgun primary, shotty secondary and the m26 mass as a gadget. You could really be creative with your loadouts, how you played, the sandbox was great. Operators just limits experimentation. Plus, I don’t see the point in changing it from the old class system. It doesn’t improve the battlefield loop at all. And there is a reason games like siege and MOBAs use operators. In Battlefield, it’s less important to know if an operator can wingsuit, then it is to know if they’re an engineer with a rocket. The simplicity of the class system worked great.

[@kamil3214532145]

How is this a problem? Just pick one option or two for yourself and that is it lo. I love the idea that I can have the same weapon on every class for example.

[@thebigsam]

​@@somethingcliched4921 in 2042 you can run a 3 Grenade Launcher Assault instead. One UBGL on most ARs, SPH aka the sticky launcher and Zain's airburst GL. What type of sandbox does the system limit when you literally have more gadgets per soldier?

[@killamanilla9079]

There's no destruction in 2042! That's what always set battlefield apart for me was being able to blow up the map and strategically use explosives in clever ways. Been playing battlefield one lately and the intensity of having a building crumble around you is so satisfying and something you just don't see anywhere else. Sad to see that gone. Bring back the destructible environments!

[@jayhub24]

100% this, at least thats where the series was going after 1942

Yea it’s the only thing that set them apart and they took it away for whatever reason.

[@vertigo222]

damn for real? i’ve been playing battlefield 1 and looking at getting this game while it’s on steam sale. probably still will, but if buildings don’t crumble then that kind of ruins it for me.

is something wrong with my eyes because it kinda looks worse than Battlefield one

I always say "graphics don't matter" if a game is good, but in this case how is it possible that the graphics went backwards after BF4, BF1 and 5??

[@kristiankonev5190]

Better than bf4,worse the bf1/V

[@osakase]

They tried going more "cartoony", I suppose...

[@thebigsam]

​@@osakasepeople see game have green grass and call the artstyle "cartoony". Like, do you guys go out of your houses on a sunny day and go "the world looks cartoony today" too?

[@osakase]

@@thebigsam It is a fact that DICE wanted to attract more of a younger audience by making picture brighter and flashy.

[@thebigsam]

@@osakase 2042 doesn't have any filters, unlike BF3 for example. And how does color palette correlate to certain demographic exactly? Has it crossed your mind that grass is actually that green in French Guiana?

[@iseerashonal821]

The game is great now. I have fun every match but this was probably the worst launch ive ever seen for a game, or anything.

[@ChrisSprenger.]

So definitely worth buying now since it’s so cheap now yeah ??

Yup! I deleted it within the first hour or so when it launched! I played it today for free via game pass and I actually enjoyed it very much. I played for 3 straight hours

[@anso5510]

is that harry kane talking in this video?

[@OriginalPuro]

Difficulty: It is as difficult as your skill level dictates. Any FPS gamer (gamer, not just "people that play games) will have no struggle with the game's mechanics, controls and so on. Graphics: it can look like a pile of turd for all I care, no gamer cares about graphics that much, though it is nice when it looks nice, it's all about mechanics, fluidity and reliability. If a game doesn't play well then it doesn't matter that it looks like a diamond. PS: WHY is there no frostbite destruction?! I am considering purchasing this on Steam at 80% discount, but I really want a BFBC2 feel. No destruction is sad.:

[@thebigsam]

There is destruction. Even BC2 levels of destruction. Because Arica and Valparaiso have been added into most playlists long time ago, you can play them in 64p CQ, Rush and even some event gamemodes. There is even a Breakthrough version of Arica, but they never added it to rotation for some reason. Also there is Haven, which is built entirely of BC2 assets

[@mhuh]

If they added plausible offline with bots, along with custom playlists, I would love to dive back in.

[@theninewillneverdie]

Ive been having fun with this game for a couple years now since they fixed the worst parts, it was awful on launch, like literally unplayable, but I can honestly say if you have the patience to get good at it, its pretty fun but a bit generic. Its the little things about it that make me enjoy every game. I still greatly miss bf3/bad company 2, those games were peak bf imo. I think they're trying a little too hard now and falling a little short

[@WOLFKILLS]

How often are the updates on this game

[@thebigsam]

About twice a month, but usually less nowadays

[@Classymarc]

Less then 5 bucks on Steam atm, seems fine to me.

[@helloguys6946]

lmao i thought the same , i bought it , played it , and uninstalled it instantly , wtf did i just played , back to bf4

[@ThirAilith]

Am here now after playing 30 hours of Delta Force, a game I dislike more & have more problems with the longer I play it. Seriously considering to just download BF2042 again now.

[@penduloustesticularis1202]

0:50 "one of the best features is the introduction of specialists" its the first time I heard someone liking those nuisance of specialists in BF. Odd how you didn't mention that DICE keeps adding and removing the 124/64vs64 mode every time they make an update. they keep removing that mode like it's some sort of FOMO game. The rest of the review is very bland. you were clearly looking at stuff to praise this game for. How much did EA pay you to 'write' this stuff? Honestly, the only good feature 2042 has that the other games still don't are bots, but that's not really something to write home about. Especially when both Battlefield 2 and 2142 had them. And portal mode is basically "We have Battlefield 2/3/4/1/5 at home" Can't even recreate Hardline in Portal mode, and the animations are terrible. The guns also feel like pea shooters.

[@Elias_Stathoulopoulos]

My only thought playing this game is "Wish I was playing BF1 or BF4" so I do. It looks so cartoony. I cant explain it, but it doesn't have that feeling of war and terror that bf1 gives me. The voicelines are cringe, gunplay feels like cod, movement feels like cod, it all just feels and looks like cod. nobody wants that. Also operators are the worst thing ever put into a bf game and if they are in the next I hope dice goes out of business

[@nika7772]

Just bought it for 4.79$ When it just came out it was pure dog shit, but now it's cheap and the bugs were fixed as far as I heard, so gonna give it a shot and see what happens.

[@chinchilimohit2600]

How is it?

[@nika7772]

​@chinchilimohit2600 To be honest, the gameplay was smooth and everything but it takes forever to enter a game. The moment you're spawned in someone is camping close by and kills you right away. It's filled with tryhards 😂 So don't really know, played about 3-4 times and definitely not invested that much. At least it was cheap so no worries there. In regards to that I prefer warzone over this.
