A Brutally Honest Review Of Battlefield 2042

Is Battlefield 2042 trash or treasure?

Battlefield 2042 releases officially on 11-19-2021... this is my review.

“The game runs like my ex girlfriend on a treadmill… not good…” Jesus Christ, my guy! 🤣👌

Adding Specialists removed the most important feature to the Battlefield franchise: the feeling that you are part of team.

Thank you for pointing out that the ONLY reason EA decided to go down the "operators" route was so they could sell skins, following the example set by Overwatch, Rainbow Six, Call of Duty and so many other games. Video games these days are essentially nothing more than glorified storefronts.
But hey, it's "just cosmetic", right? Doesn't affect the overall quality of the product whatsoever...right??

"I am confident in DICE."

I might've said this eight years ago.

We haven't had a good Battlefield launch since 2016, which is sad.

The fact that we as consumers allow this whole “poop an unfinished came out and fix it later “formula to continue is saddening.. I get it- sometimes a diamond needs to be polished before It can shine properly but this is such a blatant and consistent theme in the industry today that it’s now just apparent that these guys are taking advantage of the fact that we’re going to blindly spend our money now and they will give us a proper product on their own time on purpose to minimize workload and maximize profit. We deserve better. Big sad.

This review was honestly one of the best I’ve seen in years, quick and concise. No annoyingly long intro just a straight up review, fantastic work

Love the part when he says, “ Let’s get right to it”.
Perfect, why can’t other videos mimic this in the era of mimicking.

[DownwardThrust]

Video contains some strong language. 4K resolution (native) available. Some of the things I talked about in this video may become outdated as the game receives future updates, so keep that in mind.

Also I didn’t talk about Portal too much obviously. It’s great but I’m not into it. I’ve played all the BF games for years and there’s little reason for me to go back them. I would have just kept playing them if I wanted to. It’s more of a nostalgic trip for me.
Thanks for tuning in.

Battlefield stop being, "Battlefield" a loooong time ago. It's moved on to LIVE service. As far I and my friends are concerned the franchise is dead. SQUAD is my go to.

For me personally Battlefield has been going down hill for a while and actually I always did prefer the Medal Of Honour games, especially when talking about close quarter combat gameplay.

[jmako]

This video is definitely one of the most comprehensive video I've seen. I definitely have a better idea of 2042 now than I did watching most other reviews that just hurl insults or this good/this bad

[SuperHuscarl]

After how awful V was, you’d think that Dice would’ve learned a valuable lesson on how to make a good Battlefield game, like Battlefield 1.

Guess we thought wrong.

[trevorcoyle]

I’m surprised most people don’t focus in on the lack of scoring and the score board when being critical of this game. That’s a major feature that was intentionally ignored by the devs

[colea]

DICE should just make the specialists into subdivisions of the larger class trees and limit weapons to certain classes like the old games.

[mmapastablaster]

Sounds "brutally honest"😀.
Respect the grind!

Me: *Day one without a dislike button*

[thPoundcake]

I've been playing FPS games for 20 plus years, starting with games like Doom, Quake, Unreal, CS, early CoD. I disagree completely with your assessment of shooting in this game. The gunplay in this game is the worst I have ever personally experienced in any game in my entire life. There was either a sincere design decision to make the gunplay feel this bad, or the team is completely incompetent. There is no reason a game with such a reputation, a closed and open beta, and early access with a price tag over 100 dollars should feel like this. This is one of the best examples of a completely terrible video game launch ever. The maps "take years" to make according to the developers, yet they are all terrible. Every engagement is extremely long distance, no balance, it's a complete joke. I'm so sad that I spent money on this.

Lesson learned—When a game gets delayed by couple/few months- DO NOT PREORDER

You would think a crazy semi futuristic game would have so many guns with so many unique special attachments. Nope here’s 22 guns and a couple of barrels and scopes have fun. 😞
