It's unfathomable how they knew exactly what Battlefield fans wanted, and still managed to take every bit of that away, plus stuff that has been in the franchise for a decade.
That's what you get when your higher-ups are run by corporate investors instead of actual gamer. The former only see what brings money and try to apply it in their game no matter how nonsensical it is, the latter truly knows what formula that makes the game great and fun to play Imagine Caterpillar CEO forcing his company to make luxurious supercars despite being specialized in construction vehicles, just because he saw supercar market bringing a lot of money, and you get a close approximation on how EA run their business in a nutshell
But it doesn't bring money. That's the tragedy here. If it had brought them more profit, that would be digestible. Battlefield was ruined due to greedy, selfish dudes sucking it dry. But no, no it was simply stupid on all levels and no one gained anything in the process.
It seems like they ignore something so simple like the concept of the basic principle. BF4 and 3 where great, why not just build on it, LOL how hard can it be. It's common sense, but common sense doesn't seem to exist anymore these days..
Picking the enemy up from prone, just to kick his legs to make him fall down again and stab him is just hilarious, there’s no way that was meant to be a serious animation.
Even Ubisoft failed to copy paste code for the shields in assassins creed odyssey, turns out with these studios with multiple offices they legit have a hard time communicating with each other
As a fan of battlefield since the beginning of the franchise. It was seriously heartbreaking to see the list of senior developers that left that had been with Dice since 1942/BF2. The games are never going to be the same again
this is pretty typical in the industry, to see CEO's prefer short term profit over what the experienced teams actually know will bring in money. then you scare them away after forcing that thing on them anyways and there you have another disaster.
@@tiko4621 Don’t worry, people still play the older battlefields on console, I haven’t played 1 in a few months but it’s was plenty alive then, and I play battlefield 4 a lot and while the game isn’t as populated as it used to be its far from dead, the fact that every server we try to join had a queue speaks to that.
I remember the downfall. I played battlefield 3 for months and it was one of the greatest games of its time. My surprise and shock when they announced 4 was immeasurable. When I first put it in... I was disappointed to say the least, comparing late stage battlefield 3 to day 1 release of 4 was an absolute joke. Now, 4 has become much better but my point is 4 released WAY too early, the same with 1. While both those games turned out to be great it was a pattern, the beginning of the end.

@@Profile.4 Premium paying to Beta test the product and then it goes on sale a month or two later. Honestly, they have to learn somewhere. I returned BFV a got it on sale, 2042 I did Origin Pass for a month, you gotta learn.

@@Fightrec Corporate apologies mean less than nothing to me. I'd prefer the company just be honest for once ("We really don't give a shit", "We just want your money!" .etc).
Agreed they should revive the franchise with a bad company remaster with all classic features. Bring back server browser, commander class, levolution and fully destructible buildings. They need to lean into it.
@@lennonsvrchannel I didn't like that you couldn't prone, but when no one can, it doesn't really matter. I've played almost every BF since bad company 2 and BC2 is my favorite. The destruction hasn't been nearly as good since BC2. You used to be able to create like 5ft deep craters almost wherever you were. Level almost every single building. Something about bc2 was more realistic and gritty than any other BF afterwards. Grittiness only outdone once by BF1. The garand ping was orgasmic too.
@@lukamg7368 yep but this was the last battlefield game if we want to put it like that, EA did a shitjob and probably we will never see another battlefield that glorious like bf4
It is one of those things though, like if you had the absolute best steak you’ve ever had but it was expensive. Obviously you can only have it once in awhile, but god damn you still want it for every meal
Adjusting classes to match the system of hero shooters is the most focus-group-tested thing I've seen in a while, while also being the best evidence against focus group testing I've seen in a while.
That's actually the funny part: The focus groups were almost unanimous in their disagreement with the specialists/operators during 2042's development. DICE implemented them anyway.
Letting all those senior devs from DICE walk away was a big mistake. Their knowledge and experience in battlefield was worth a lot, if they were still at DICE the game would be very good.
@@hybridkam money, in the sense of certain profitable seasons and the fact they didn't really have competition. Medal of honor is dead and vanguard was well vanguard.
@@costanza7013 Yeah, recently I’ve been getting back into 4, Hardline, V, and 1 and I was thinking of trying 2042 if it went on sale. Now I think I’ll pass unless they drastically mark it down by something like +80%… It might be a good buy in the sub-$10 range.
Man... What they did to Command and Conquer. The last one of series was full made by EA and it had like 1/10 reviews. great and legendary series - now not existing
They’ve got their grubby fingers on the codemasters f1 and you can see the rot already setting in. Within one year they have added a load of shit features and there are constant updates changing how the car feels
@@UlferTheWolf How stupid of me was to think the right course is to play any game that brings you fun, not only fresh AAA hits. Glad there're such enthusiasts like you who won't even start their fancy pcs their mommies bought em for Christmas to launch the game that uses less than 95% of whole computer resources. Keep being such a "true gamer", champ
The game is still popular I think it’s gotten better over the years but the beginning release was such a joke the people that played would of not bothered trying it after the updates but personally it’s better than cod just because it’s actual war game instead of rushing around trying your hardest to win being in a huge team is just amazing and I also haven’t been in a queue for ages it is a few seconds max a minute so generally good game I hate it spawns you in games that already started but it’s generally a good experience
Big lesson: respect developer talent AND give them time.Treating experienced developer talent like disposable tools can really bite you in the ass in the long run.
It's likely just DEI diluting the actual ability of the employees and management. Kinda what happens when you care more about gender and skin tone than merit.
The franchise is in shambles. they not making money now.....and they certainly not competing with COD cause they half assed it and made an inferior product and damaged their reputation.Quality in quality out.@@Smartyvoy
ehh idk, this is just background settings, those kinds of details aren't important for small stories (such as single movies or videogame campaigns). They are only important if the entore story revolves around those situations. Most of the time, it's the characters and the emotion that carry small stories into being great.
Nope. It made no sense at all. Sounds like a bunch of MCU fans made up a "It's the end of the world" story into a futuristic setting which doesn't make sense. Battlefield 3 had the last good Campaign that takes place during the war in Iraq. It had a few controversial scenes that would trigger modern EA/DICE staff. Follow up with Medal of Honor 2010 showcasing Navy Seals. We no longer get these Campaigns because EA/DICE hates war veterans.
@@kiwi4058 Dont forget the pressure on devs im the board rooms with investors and publishers, shitty pre-order system where people pay companies for a product that doesn't exist, gamers' shitty attentionspans and inability to vote with their wallets and so much more.

Someone must have sacrificed his first, second and third born son for us to get an Internet Historian and big boss Video in one day - And we should thank for that
I remember back 20 years ago in BF42 there was an entire menu dedicated to calibrating and setting up your JOYSTICK to use while flying. Imagine that. 20 years ago.
There's a reason Battlefield 2 hasn't been re-released; because everyone knows it's better than all the following Battlefields COMBINED, and EA knows this too. It would put all their other Battlefields to shame, and they'd make fewer dollars.
12:53 yeah, I remember when in Bad Company 2 I was doing my camper things from the window of some house. I run my scope over the tank. I see it's tower slowly turning to look right at me. I panic, swear and start running. Then whole world blows up. I survived the initial blast but was buried under the rubble. What an amazing experience, that I still treasure to this day😢
It's never coming back, the team's just gone, so is their vision. At least they're now working on what looks like a fun project named The Finals, but they managed to pick Nexon as an editor. Imagine fleeing EA in order to end up with Nexon, as if it couldn't get worse. Not a great start.
It won't ever happen because no matter how talented the developers are they are held back by incompetent managament. The suits over at EA don't really know anything about game development, what we want or what is actually good for the game. They just want that quarterly meeting with the investors to go well yk. Stop buying games from EA, just stop pre-ordering, vote with your wallets.
Seriously, though, when I first saw the trailer I was like this looks good, saw the publisher and was immediately like never gonna trust a damn thing they say. Beta comes out in a terrible state then they say it was an couple month old build, then people fucking believe it, like your gonna fix these issues by the time it releases next month, like you could fix these issues in a couple months time, not to mention why the fuck would a company put out worse representation when they had easy access to something much more reputable, it makes no God damn sense and people believed this
22:24 BFV actually does use a newer engine version than BF1 (from FB2014 up to FB2016). Sometime after launch it also got another engine version bump to FB2018.
Being a kid all the way through the 2000's, its been a hellish road seeing what the mid to late 2010's has done to the gaming industry. I thought things would only get better since battlefield 3, I didn't know it would forever be downhill from there.
You can blame CS:GO and GTA V for this horrendous cash grab. All fortnite did was overly popularize the battle royale game mode, but the casino, erm I mean loot boxes from CSGO and the immense money factory that was did an unrepairable damage to the gaming industry.
@@hoebertrabeck1621 microtransactions. Gta V is the godfather of cashgrab and the one that absolutely perfected a system in which you cannot progress for shit if you don't put real money on it. Which, taking it's a game you already PAID for, fucking sucks. Leave that for f2p games.
I forgot I was subscribed and was pleasantly surprised when I recognized his voice. Quality sure takes time to make, Ea could probably take some pointers lol
This game broke my heart. Been playing Battlefield since BF 1942 and even though V had it's fair share of criticism, I still loved it because it was a Battlefield game. This was not a Battlefield game, this was EA using the Battlefield name and flushing away 15+ years of Dice's hard work down the drain. This and Cyberpunk for me signified the end of Triple A releases being worth purchasing.
BFV turned into a great game after a rough start and the PR blunders, it still has many players luckily. This and BF1 will keep me entertained until there one day will be real Battlefield again. But after seeing this video, I have no clue of that could really be anytime soon..
Unbelievable how 5 people in a basement and a 40 dollar budget were able to make such unforgettable games in the early 2000s. Now 1000 people and a 400 million dollar budget and IT DOESNT EVEN WORK
@alexochoa918 EA has the money and resources it needs in order to build good organization, it’s just that they’re so greedy and lazy that they cut corners
It's always like that 🤔 there are never more than a handful of technical people that actually know what they're doing, the rest are just time vampires out for a paycheck 😤
As someone who grew up gaming it’s genuinely sad what modern games have become, shit is more expensive than ever and more disappointing than ever perfect combination
this is what happens when you let products be made by companies who inherently always value profit over user satisfaction. the only reason they will ever make a game people enjoy is to make money, never out of a genuine desire to create a good experience for someone else to enjoy. To the suits up top, video games are just another means to an end, putting money in their pockets.
Please don't lob all modern games with BF2042. Ghost of Tsushima, Stray, Elden Ring, Sifu, these are games that have come out in just the past year or two and they are masterpieces
@@ObviousToast so what? are you just going to ignore the obvious pattern occurring here? are you not gonna actually be critical of the way this industry tends to conduct itself? list all the games you want, fact of the matter is that the entertainment industry as a whole prioritieses profit over user satisfaction to an unbalanced degree. you can see it with shitty games, shitty movies, shitty tv shows, shitty songs. you can soy-point at the exceptions to the trend all you want, but as long as you blindly ignore the trend, this will keep happening
@@witokija facts. I hate people saying, “it could be worse” or “at least it’s not as bad as” FUCK NO! You should be upset, you should be demanding more, you should use more than three brain cells in unison to realize that unless we start holding the industry accountable shit will only get worse. It’s so saddening to see such a large number of consumers blindly eat whatever slop is given to them. Thankfully more people are waking up and people like you are spreading something unheard of known as logic and reasoning
I must say, this has got to be one of the most interesting development stories ever! I mean, how can so many terrible decisions be made by one group of executives and for one game?! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game have to be pretty much completely rebuilt post-launch. Truly something to be studied for ages to come…
It's a lesson on corporate gaming inevitably leading to shitty creatively bankrupt franchises. Nothing "new" to learn here. It has always been like this.
It's not the developer's (DICE) fault. I'm a developer (a software engineer, programmer, or a... developer... whatever). And we just build stuff. The actual brain of the company are the executives. They make the decisions, then they tell us to do this. And so we do it. I've had projects where I tell myself, holy fuck this is gonna be a disaster, why would the execs decide on this? Then I remember, those that control us developers, they have business degrees, not computer science/game design backgrounds... They always think of profit instead of making the actual games look and feel good. This is the truth behind big companies. It's always these dumb morons at the top who are so out of touch of the consumer's wants, because they are... So high in their heads, and in their position, that they can't see what's below. And so this is what happens when dumb corporates think of developers as 'just there to build' as if it was the modern equivalent of construction workers. And so they leave. We leave. Then the dumb corpos do a pikachu face, and gets surprised when they realize they're gonna spend time and money to hire new people, and spend even more time training them to use the tools that we previous devs have built. Fuck executives.
Final Fantasy 14 had to be basically rebuilt because it was so hated, but now it's one of the most popular MMORPGs on the market because they put in the time and effort to improve and listen to customer feedback. They literally had an in universe apocalypse and rebuilt the world. Now most the people into the game are borderline fanatical about it, and that's largely due to the fact the game actually tries to appeal to them. American devs could learn something from them, but they will not.
BF4 was terrible at launch as well, but at least the game's basic mechanics and foundations were solid so after a few patches and DLCs it went pretty well. But BF2042 however, was doomed from the start.
At the beginning? Fuck no, the game hardly functioned. Once the bugs got fixed? Yeah. It’s been a consistent thing for BF games to absolutely suck at launch, but that’s typically because of bugs and glitches, not gameplay flaws like 2042’s.
Another example of how no matter how many resources you throw at it if you let your creative project be run by a corporate board motivated solely by profit they are going to manage to fuck it up.
Never believe the hype. Never preorder. Always wait for the reviews. True since Watchdogs 2013. You still trust Criple A Studios and you get what you deserve.
I was waiting for a video like this. Ever since Crowbcat died and Internet Historian stopped covering videogames I feel like fails such as these aren't being covered enough anymore.
21:57 I just realized how fucking stupid it was for EA to first attempt to turn Battlefield into a battle-royale/hero shooter when they already had Apex Legends.
I remember the sub reddit and comments on trailers on youtube of people going “this game is gonna kill cod” “this is the future” and once it came out…crickets😂
Yeah any game thats labled as a COD killer is probably going to die. Because no matter how bad people may think the newer cod games are, the franchise is just too big to fail at this point. No matter how many mediocre titles are put out.
If a publisher ever says they’re adding extra development studios to a title, it’s not going well. As soon as I heard that more studio’s were helping I knew things were bad, and I was proven right.
I'm crying. I played BF1 and BFV as a teenager and loved them (even BFV with all its bugs and stupid design decisions). Now that I am a college dude, I wanted to see how my favorite videogame was doing. This is without any doubt a destiny worse than death.
If I had a nickel for every time a game with a future year in its title was massively hyped before release and then revealed to be one of the worst most undercooked games ever created, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice. Edit: make that 3 HOW could I forget the classic fallout 76
Lol it's a lot more than 2 or 3. In EA alone there are innumerous cases, BF2, the entire PvZ franchise after Garden Warfare, Andromeda, the Mass Effect remaster, couple of NFS', Crysis remaster, i think even dragon age inquisition had a bad reception when it was released and so on. Including other companies, there's a heck lot more. CP2077, F76, NMS, Space Hulk Deathwing, Spellbreak, Division 2, almost all Assassins Creed after Black Flag, GTA trilogy, Just Cause 4 and so on.
The devs doesn’t need to watch this, the one needed to watch this is the decision makers in EA and DICE, but would they care about anything else than money? Given enough resources, anything can be made, but if EA want to push it out right away, the devs can’t stop. I bet the date they released the beta was right after they fixed most of the bugs that could crash the server/game, and turned them into these de-sync and messed up graphics. Just barely enough time spent to make the thing runnable.
@Burstein von Knackerthrasher I don't think anyone's gonna be pre-ordering or even gonna care about another BF game. So yep, this may be the death of Battlefield
24:57 Bro, you are killing me wiht the memes and with the good writing! "No more delays... no more ovens!" I spit on my monitor laughing! XD You have a talent for dead-pan comedy, my frend! The mix of memes, good jokes, comedic timing, excellent delivery and great SFX make pure magic and a pleasure to watch your videos! Lovely jobly! Keep it up mate!
I came back to bf2042 after a year it launched, and while it’s not as buggy as it was when it first came out, it gets boring after a while since there’s only a small handful of maps the game has. Not to mention the game was trying to hop on the latest trends and making it more arcady instead of staying true to what made the series great in the first place. Rest easy battlefield, you were too good for this world.
The biggest thing that made me really hate 2042 wasn't even the bugs or whatever, but it was the way this game felt more like a CoD or Overwatch title. Tactical sprint, sliding, specialists, etc. It didn't feel like battlefield. It just felt like a hero shooter mixed with huge maps.
When I was a kid I remember playing RTS and RPG games that had randomly generated maps. I thought to myself "It is only a matter of time and they will have this infinite map feature in FPS games!" Time wore on and I got older and realized it wasn't going to happen. Eventually games like Halo 3 and Mount and Blade Warband released and I thought to myself that crowdsourcing (mod sourcing?) map development and integrating the best ones into the base game would be the future. Time wore on and I got older and realized it wasn't going to happen. Call of duty 4 modern warfare was released in 2007 with 16 maps and 45 guns. Fifteen years later they released Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 two with 15 maps and 33 guns. You vote with your wallet. Don't be the sucker paying more for less.
small detail to add, the 2023 MW2 is just a remake of the original MW2 that came out in 2009. It had 26 maps and 86 weapons which...makes the remake look so much worse lmao
Its kinda beyond me how gamedev as a whole struggles to establish crowdsourcing content. I literally did that in modding, made a living world mod for an empty space sandbox using other player's builds and each of them were so happy their ships and stations are no longer just steam workshop item, but actually has a purpose, like an actual pirate/police/military ship with AI. My original idea was that "damn, those builds are so pretty to just collect dust in steam workshop and eventually be forgotten, more people should see them" Surely, when money involved it would change things, but I don't believe it is impossible to establish a working system... didn't Fortnite achieve that actually? Warframe with tennogen, kinda?
@@daniel1122345 That game isn’t remotely a remake, so I was very confused if they meant MWIII which came out in 2023 and actually has the remastered MW2 maps. MWII was part of a reboot trilogy, which is completely different than a remake. It’s an entirely different game. So I’m still certain they did not mean the 2022 game…
When the Beta rolled out I was still using a relic of a CPU, the 2010s budget flagship, the FX8350, and it wasn't enough to run 2042 at more than 10FPS. And promptly decided against buying it, even when a good chunk of my friends did. And boy, the complaints I've heard for them after the launch came... I was saved by terrible optimization lmao
I have a high end tower and multi-core GPU with SSDs running games. I play mostly Half Life 2, Black Mesa, and Fallout New Vegas. You’re not missing out on anything. Everything new sucks :/
10:10 "If the world is so awful, why are the soldiers like this?" That pretty much is how things would be if this was Monster Hunter. The world is apocalyptic and filled to the brim with monsters... BUT IF WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE, BETTER HAVE FUN! Except this is no MonHun, let alone advertised as one.
@@minorsalaam And it shows. It carry’s a lot of battlefield vibes, but also has a fair amount of unique qualities too that makes it stand out. It shows there’s a lot of passion and care behind it, unlike the corporate-shareholder leaning incompetence we are seeing from the studio they left behind
21:24 if you look at the chart here, it says how many devs from dice left to embark studios who made the finals, which i cannot (personally) recommend enough since it has that ultra-sick battlefield vibe to it and it's super fun

The trailer for Battlebit is one of the best I've seen in years. And it's still in Early Access, lol.
Adjusting classes to match the system of hero shooters is the most focus-group-tested thing I've seen in a while, while also being the best evidence against focus group testing I've seen in a while.
We actually had a discussion at my class on focus group testing, and I used BF2024's features as evidence why FGT is not great.
That's actually the funny part: The focus groups were almost unanimous in their disagreement with the specialists/operators during 2042's development. DICE implemented them anyway.
"Hero shooters" blech.
I never liked how people use the term since Overwatch.
Letting all those senior devs from DICE walk away was a big mistake. Their knowledge and experience in battlefield was worth a lot, if they were still at DICE the game would be very good.

ehh idk, this is just background settings, those kinds of details aren't important for small stories (such as single movies or videogame campaigns). They are only important if the entore story revolves around those situations. Most of the time, it's the characters and the emotion that carry small stories into being great.
Nope. It made no sense at all. Sounds like a bunch of MCU fans made up a "It's the end of the world" story into a futuristic setting which doesn't make sense. Battlefield 3 had the last good Campaign that takes place during the war in Iraq. It had a few controversial scenes that would trigger modern EA/DICE staff.

I remember back 20 years ago in BF42 there was an entire menu dedicated to calibrating and setting up your JOYSTICK to use while flying. Imagine that. 20 years ago.
There's a reason Battlefield 2 hasn't been re-released; because everyone knows it's better than all the following Battlefields COMBINED, and EA knows this too. It would put all their other Battlefields to shame, and they'd make fewer dollars.
12:53 yeah, I remember when in Bad Company 2 I was doing my camper things from the window of some house. I run my scope over the tank. I see it's tower slowly turning to look right at me.

It won't ever happen because no matter how talented the developers are they are held back by incompetent managament.

Yeah, I’ve been around long enough to know that statement reeks of bullshit. Also, nobody should ever trust EA.
For all you know, it _was_ a couple months old, or older. They released that instead of the current version because the current version sucked worse.
22:24 BFV actually does use a newer engine version than BF1 (from FB2014 up to FB2016). Sometime after launch it also got another engine version bump to FB2018.
Being a kid all the way through the 2000's, its been a hellish road seeing what the mid to late 2010's has done to the gaming industry. I thought things would only get better since battlefield 3, I didn't know it would forever be downhill from there.

This was not a Battlefield game, this was EA using the Battlefield name and flushing away 15+ years of Dice's hard work down the drain. This and Cyberpunk for me signified the end of Triple A releases being worth purchasing.
BFV turned into a great game after a rough start and the PR blunders, it still has many players luckily. This and BF1 will keep me entertained until there one day will be real Battlefield again. But after seeing this video, I have no clue of that could really be anytime soon..

As someone who grew up gaming it’s genuinely sad what modern games have become, shit is more expensive than ever and more disappointing than ever perfect combination
this is what happens when you let products be made by companies who inherently always value profit over user satisfaction. the only reason they will ever make a game people enjoy is to make money, never out of a genuine desire to create a good experience for someone else to enjoy. To the suits up top, video games are just another means to an end, putting money in their pockets.

Ok boomer
I must say, this has got to be one of the most interesting development stories ever! I mean, how can so many terrible decisions be made by one group of executives and for one game?! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a game have to be pretty much completely rebuilt post-launch. Truly something to be studied for ages to come…
There's No Man's Sky I guess, but that game was playable at launch and actually kept getting so much content every update
It's a lesson on corporate gaming inevitably leading to shitty creatively bankrupt franchises. Nothing "new" to learn here. It has always been like this.
It's not the developer's (DICE) fault. I'm a developer (a software engineer, programmer, or a... developer... whatever). And we just build stuff. The actual brain of the company are the executives. They make the decisions, then they tell us to do this. And so we do it. I've had projects where I tell myself, holy fuck this is gonna be a disaster, why would the execs decide on this? Then I remember, those that control us developers, they have business degrees, not computer science/game design backgrounds... They always think of profit instead of making the actual games look and feel good. This is the truth behind big companies. It's always these dumb morons at the top who are so out of touch of the consumer's wants, because they are... So high in their heads, and in their position, that they can't see what's below.
And so this is what happens when dumb corporates think of developers as 'just there to build' as if it was the modern equivalent of construction workers.
And so they leave. We leave. Then the dumb corpos do a pikachu face, and gets surprised when they realize they're gonna spend time and money to hire new people, and spend even more time training them to use the tools that we previous devs have built.
Fuck executives.
@@ramage7646 dang, that must suck. Honestly, that’s why I’m probably never going to get into development. Anyways, I’m going to change it now.
Final Fantasy 14 had to be basically rebuilt because it was so hated, but now it's one of the most popular MMORPGs on the market because they put in the time and effort to improve and listen to customer feedback. They literally had an in universe apocalypse and rebuilt the world. Now most the people into the game are borderline fanatical about it, and that's largely due to the fact the game actually tries to appeal to them.
American devs could learn something from them, but they will not.
Dice's next move, "Battlefield: Edgerunners".
😂
Nice joke, lol. Thing is, they can’t. Why, because the game has no story mode.
Releasing a full functional game nowadays: *IMPOSSIBLE*
Battlefield 4 knew exactly what players wanted.
BF4 was terrible at launch as well, but at least the game's basic mechanics and foundations were solid so after a few patches and DLCs it went pretty well. But BF2042 however, was doomed from the start.
Truth is the game was bad from the start
At the beginning? Fuck no, the game hardly functioned. Once the bugs got fixed? Yeah.
It’s been a consistent thing for BF games to absolutely suck at launch, but that’s typically because of bugs and glitches, not gameplay flaws like 2042’s.
BF3 was better
Nothing touch BF1 🤷🏽♂️
Another example of how no matter how many resources you throw at it if you let your creative project be run by a corporate board motivated solely by profit they are going to manage to fuck it up.
When you realise we can fit terabytes of data in our hand and yet game devs can’t even make a live scoreboard

Yeah any game thats labled as a COD killer is probably going to die. Because no matter how bad people may think the newer cod games are, the franchise is just too big to fail at this point. No matter how many mediocre titles are put out.
Half of these problems could have been avoided if companies hadn't started to use contract workers instead of employees
No dev team can solve EA's "miss"management...
Hey hey this the second time this has happened to a major delvopment studio almost as of its a pattern
Money money memes! Thats the deal...
Using contract workers is only the symptom. The root problem is that nobody wants to work for them for more than a year.
If a publisher ever says they’re adding extra development studios to a title, it’s not going well. As soon as I heard that more studio’s were helping I knew things were bad, and I was proven right.
They thought that adding extra women would help them deliver the baby quicker than 9 months

I'm crying. I played BF1 and BFV as a teenager and loved them (even BFV with all its bugs and stupid design decisions). Now that I am a college dude, I wanted to see how my favorite videogame was doing. This is without any doubt a destiny worse than death.

Not to mention the game was trying to hop on the latest trends and making it more arcady instead of staying true to what made the series great in the first place.
Rest easy battlefield, you were too good for this world.
you mean too bad.
@@kolyasmirno9116 He's talking about the franchise, not this game specifically.
Yeah, it's just... Not fun. Bottomline.
The series was never great, y’all overrated this game because the COD haters
@@dadillonful lol you are pretty correct lol I only liked black ops 2
The biggest thing that made me really hate 2042 wasn't even the bugs or whatever, but it was the way this game felt more like a CoD or Overwatch title. Tactical sprint, sliding, specialists, etc. It didn't feel like battlefield. It just felt like a hero shooter mixed with huge maps.
I come back to this video once every month. LEGENDARY PRODUCTION. I'm still hurt over 2042. 😡
When I was a kid I remember playing RTS and RPG games that had randomly generated maps. I thought to myself "It is only a matter of time and they will have this infinite map feature in FPS games!" Time wore on and I got older and realized it wasn't going to happen. Eventually games like Halo 3 and Mount and Blade Warband released and I thought to myself that crowdsourcing (mod sourcing?) map development and integrating the best ones into the base game would be the future. Time wore on and I got older and realized it wasn't going to happen.
Call of duty 4 modern warfare was released in 2007 with 16 maps and 45 guns. Fifteen years later they released Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 two with 15 maps and 33 guns.
You vote with your wallet. Don't be the sucker paying more for less.
small detail to add, the 2023 MW2 is just a remake of the original MW2 that came out in 2009. It had 26 maps and 86 weapons which...makes the remake look so much worse lmao
@@maestrofeli4259 There is no 2023 MW2. What are you talking about?
Its kinda beyond me how gamedev as a whole struggles to establish crowdsourcing content. I literally did that in modding, made a living world mod for an empty space sandbox using other player's builds and each of them were so happy their ships and stations are no longer just steam workshop item, but actually has a purpose, like an actual pirate/police/military ship with AI. My original idea was that "damn, those builds are so pretty to just collect dust in steam workshop and eventually be forgotten, more people should see them"
Surely, when money involved it would change things, but I don't believe it is impossible to establish a working system... didn't Fortnite achieve that actually? Warframe with tennogen, kinda?
@@Fusionadeshit dude good point. That was actually late 2022 not 2023…
@@daniel1122345 That game isn’t remotely a remake, so I was very confused if they meant MWIII which came out in 2023 and actually has the remastered MW2 maps.
MWII was part of a reboot trilogy, which is completely different than a remake. It’s an entirely different game. So I’m still certain they did not mean the 2022 game…
In hindsight, if it takes 4 development studios to make a game thats multiplayer only, that is a huge red flag
this is the greatest example of ''if it's not broken, don't fix it'' that i've ever seen...
And then 3 guys with a game that looks like Roblox completely crush the last shreds of hope for Battlefield.
When the Beta rolled out I was still using a relic of a CPU, the 2010s budget flagship, the FX8350, and it wasn't enough to run 2042 at more than 10FPS. And promptly decided against buying it, even when a good chunk of my friends did. And boy, the complaints I've heard for them after the launch came...
I was saved by terrible optimization lmao
I have a high end tower and multi-core GPU with SSDs running games. I play mostly Half Life 2, Black Mesa, and Fallout New Vegas. You’re not missing out on anything. Everything new sucks :/
Not that it would help.
10:10 "If the world is so awful, why are the soldiers like this?"
That pretty much is how things would be if this was Monster Hunter. The world is apocalyptic and filled to the brim with monsters... BUT IF WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE, BETTER HAVE FUN!
Except this is no MonHun, let alone advertised as one.
8:05 captures the whole essence of the game
Man the release was fucking funny. I have a special place in my heart for Hovercrafts driving up the side of a skyscraper
Hard to believe playing bf3 back in the day that these guys would fall off. Rip battlefield thanks for the wonderful memories.
I need the list of all the seniors developers who left dice to support them in their next project
Embark is a studio composed of ex battlefield devs, their next game is called the finals. There’s a pre alpha trailer for it out
A lot of the devs that left dice recently released a trailer for the game they were making, it's called "the finals"
embark is the studio of a lot of the old battlefield devs. "the finals" is better in pre alpha than most games are on release. check it out.
@@minorsalaam And it shows. It carry’s a lot of battlefield vibes, but also has a fair amount of unique qualities too that makes it stand out.
It shows there’s a lot of passion and care behind it, unlike the corporate-shareholder leaning incompetence we are seeing from the studio they left behind
21:24 if you look at the chart here, it says how many devs from dice left to embark studios who made the finals, which i cannot (personally) recommend enough since it has that ultra-sick battlefield vibe to it and it's super fun
I love when big boss brings the classic Internet Historian energy with stories on failed video games
More like Big Boss rips off Internet Historian so blatantly, it’s hard to watch these videos. Nothing original in these, the format is almost exactly the same.
@@Box0rz yeah kinda cringe on this rip off
@@dynamicbanz3288 nah big boss had a bit more ambiance than historian videos, his new ones art focused on the art a lot more. These are funny quick cuts.
@@Box0rz and? Don't think Internet Historian will do videos on 2042 any time soon
The prone stabbing had me dying 🤣

Help them up, kick them back down again, and stab them in the back lol 😂
Help him up and get kicked back down
It had me standing up and lying down

Your usage of memes and movie clips are executed very well to convey points and humor.
Big boss is the epitome of "quality over quantity"
You must not heard about contra points then....
Beau Miles, LEMMiNO, Ahoy, etc.
@@Agent-ie3uv I've heard of him. He's always wrong.
He’s the epitome of doing Internet Historian ripoffs lol
@@AndrewJanusson They’re high quality though so who gives a fuck.
