Battlefield 2042 (PS4, PS5, XB1, XSX, PC) (Nov 19)

[SAINT]

I see a lot of people asking for changes that just aren’t going to happen, but I have 2 requests. Bring spotting back and differentiate the specialists b/w the factions. That’s it

Spoiler

I just smoked so this is probably going to sound like some bullshyt.

This specialist system feels half baked. I feel they wanted to go a hero shooter route and also something to monetize(Battlefront 2?). I assumed it was going to be like Siege or Overwatch.

Ex., Support 1 allows the squad to carry more gadget ammo, so you’d fit better in an anti-vehicle squad or you want to defend a push. Support 2 allows the robot dog a restock crate instead of a LMG, giving you a trade off but something unique. Support 3 gives out tracer ammo to the squad allowing 3D spotting to the squad briefly or heavy ammo to fight helicopters and cars.

Some of the current abilities feel selfish or lackluster.(Falke >>>)

Whoa, you can shoot better on a zip line. Really catering to the squad.

heard it's a mess, but really fun.

Took a break from work and played some. Very messy and chaotic if you join while a game is in session.

Thats all battlefields tho.

More of a Conquest thing in my opinion. The other objective based game modes tend to be more focused.

I miss BC2 rush and BF3 squad TDM

I agree, which is my only saving hope for this game. And to be honest I'm fairly certain this will be a good battlefield game just not at launch. The interface decisions are mind boggling tho. that kind of ineptitude has me worried.

It's been too long...my aim is dogwater

Why is spotting so trash?

 

[I Really Mean It]

Damage model is garbage. How does a decade old Bad Company 2, which came out two generations before this, have superior physics???

 

[Los!]

BF3 had the best SQDM

 

[SNYC]

Sorry but, this is not the Battlefield i remember. They went the COD route

The controls are ehh, they got tac sprint?

Hit detection is kinda off, the teal color in the GUIs & menus is trash

As everyone else said, no distinction with operators... the specialist system is stupid

And this Beta level is weird, feels like there's no cohesion from one place to the next

I really wanted to like this game

 

[darealvelle]

I guess I am an lame COD boy, I cant get into this game.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Not enough destruction the level doesn't really even tell a story. The interiors are lifeless and look like they were just dropped in like a prop. The destruction is very far and few between although I do like that you can create craters on the map

There's a difference between the medic who can self heal and heal others and the guy with the grappling hook I don't think you can mix and match those two

Im talking the kits not the specialist specific ability. If you are assault why should you be allowed to have access to snipers and recon grenades? It’s just dumb

Played around 15 games so far since Thursday. Requested a refund this morning.

I absolutely hate conquest so that might be why I was already annoyed but I just didn't enjoy the game. At no point in time did it feel like there were 128 players in the game.

I'll wait until a month or so after release to see how Breakthrough/Rush look and might buy it then.
