Battlefield just did something completely new...

Battlefield 2042 has a new game mode called control with some new mechanics I don't remember seeing in a Battlefield game before, let's check it out! Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching.

[@NastyCupid]

This mode is actually really solid, all my games felt more action packed but also more predictable, like, I knew where the enemy team would be coming from. Really enjoy it 👌

[@eXileris]

thats why I like breakthrough but this is a great hybrid of conquest :)

[@Sporty12boy]

The rush on portal last week was a great one with a lot of action

[@Geekinofflife]

Sounds like a camp fest

[@jackfrags]

yeah I've played a few more times on the game mode now on Orbital and Valparaiso, I think it has a lot of potential, good fun!

[@middaymeds]

Jackfrags silently looking at the riot shield guy for a second and then casually blowing him up with C5 must be one of my favorite gaming moments.

[@olivermilling1357]

The vehicle buy system, in this mode, is very similar to how Star Wars Battlefront 2 worked. I think that game was good in the sense that you had to earn the good vehicle (And hero’s) which shared them around and gave a sense of achievement. They even had map specific vehicles like AT-ATs. (Also there was a class that game, officer, that allowed you to get points pretty easily if you preferred vehicles play).

[@thomasnixon8686]

A sense of pride and accomplishment, too

[@mosasaurier7090]

its like Battlefront,which is in my opinion the best way to stop people hogging reinforcements

[@damienmcdonald7610]

Yeah sort of but in battlefront there are restrictions to the amount of vehicles and heroes you can have spawned at the same time so they usually do still get hogged. But in this there isn't a restriction which is more chaotic but very interesting

[@thechewwitnet]

Then you just get a spam at the end of the round

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

By the by... Blasco might not be the most fun operator to use, but she's definitely super helpful for the Squad/Team

[@pantsaresuccess]

she's my favourite tbh

[@middaymeds]

She is broken in the best way in Rush XL. You can easily get top of the leaderboard all by sticking her counter-uav right in the meatgrinder.

[@BoogersAndMilk]

Why don’t people spot as soon as they die? Would make things so much better for everyone, especially medics

[@TexasSpartan099]

I do every single time. Problem is people don't pay attention. They get that tunnel vision.

[@damienmcdonald7610]

Yeah I always do but most seem not to. The worst one is where they're not far from you, spam the revive me call out, so you go there and immediately get killed by the enemy that was camping in a bush right next to them. If someone does that I note their name and refuse to pick them up for the rest of the match unless I see them go down and know it's safe

[@emmanuelmunchies]

I always spot but mutha fuckas don't like looking at the minimap or don't watch for pings.....

[@MrLockdown97]

This mode existed in a game called homefront. Such a great game. You had to earn points to get helicopters, tanks etc

[@DecimalD_]

Homefront actually had a really fun multiplayer. The movement felt a bit stiff and it took a while to get into the action, but it was still so fun and different. Wish it had a bigger budget and a more successful launch. Happy to see a more interesting mode in 2042.

[@Scuzz_plays]

lol just made a comment about homefront then i saw this comment

[@jackfrags]

oh damn I forgot about that game, was pretty fun!

[@MumboJumboZXC]

That game also punished you for being good though by marking you if you got too many kills

[@scudlauncherr]

command and conquer renegade has this style even earlier

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

Closest comparison to the points system would by BFV's squad call ins for artillery etc

[@BoogersAndMilk]

Don’t know why this was not considered - it was a great feature and put emphasis on team play

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

@@BoogersAndMilk Totally agree. Loved it and thought it also rewarded team play which is always a bonus in my book

I loved playing squad captain in BFV for this very reason. It was a great mechanic. It also made you pay attention to squad goals and tactics. A huge plus.

[@shawnyscore6988]

This mode is very chaotic and sweaty. But I enjoyed it and can’t wait to play again. Like all previous modes it need ls 2-3 days before players know how to play it. I have enjoyed all events especially the two last ones and I think they should put them on rotation

[@blackman8603]

Bro I am having a blast in this mode. It must be permanent

[@davidgb291]

I really like the idea of getting points by playing the objectives in order to get vehicles. Imo, it would be a good addition to conquest, even just a limited time to see how that goes.

Yet again what a fantastic video today jack keep up the good work my friend. Also will you be streaming the final raid with tomo and stod

[@GyroZeppel]

Spending points to get vehicles definitely is a feature brought over from the Star Wars battlefront series and is honestly welcome in my opinion.

Reminds me of the close quarters conquest in BF3. Some of the best times I’ve had on the series with that game mode

[@JoshuaGanoTyraxLightning]

This Control Mode reminds me much of BF5's "Outpost", and I liked Outpost. :D Spending Points to get Vehicles reminds me much of BF5's "Squad Points" where stuff the Squad does earns those then the Squad Leader can spend those points to call in stuff. My fav thing to call in: Sturmtiger... >:D (The Churchill Crocodile, Calliope, Hachi, and Artillery Strikes were fun too.) Honestly this Mode and being able to call in the Vehicle and Spawn into it looks WAY better than callin it in while on foot and having a limited time for you or a Squaddie to die, go to the Deploy Screen, then bag the Vehicle to Deploy in it before its Timer expired and rendered the Vehicle and the Squad Points spent on it completely wasted. Edit: P.S. This Vid Length and Content felt good. Moar like this plz. :)

[@paulfromnewcastle9522]

Homefront online you gained points to buy vehicles, very similar 👍

[@V3ntilator]

I farmed all rewards first day in this mode. Unlike other modes, this one have a unlimited Taxi's so you quickly get back in to action. It's the opposite of Hourglass map where you walk for so long that you die of thirst somewhere in the desert before you get back in to action anywhere.

This game mode is similar to Titans in 2142 and BF4. You had to cap rocket silos to hit the big ship and get inside. This one has a twist with shopping for vehicles and floating objective locations. Its a neat idea. Essentially you have to cap points at specific time to get the benefit. I still firmly believe Titans was the best game mode in battlefield, but this one is really good. Rush is up there too
