Ah- Aurora Borealis!? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within Battlefield 2042!?
Lol only us old timers will get this😂
YES
@@TombstoneActual42can i see it?
Seymour! The house is on fire!
Yes 😮
What writers wants BF2042 to be: Dark, gritty and the fears of the future.
What DICE/ EA upper management wants 2042 to be: Anime and goofy skins.
There are TWO anime skins in the game, one of which visible only for it's owner. The fuck is wrong with you, people...
Dice doesnt want it EA does, EA bought dice so dice just has to follow what they say. Not their fault
The story in 2042 feels so flat. I feel like this effort needs to be fleshed out better in game, or just save it for a SP game.
I feel like the lore itself is really interesting. It’s just not presented in an interesting way.
@@user-dj9iu2et3r I agree. The trailers with Irish were very interesting but the execution was just incredibly awful.
I think the post-apoclyaptic nature of many parts of the world inherently limits Storytelling.
Honestly "nations have collapsed, mercs and scavengers fight" is not really I want for a Battlefield setting.
I agree. This "we'll tell the story through multiplayer" just feels forced and out of place. Just weirdly shoehorned in because we didn't get a SP campaign. Doesn't really seem to add anything to the game and earns one big "who cares" from me.
What story? The lore we got so far has had nothing to do with the game. Tornadoes?
Hmm Ai with some weather control capabilities made to try save the current weather system, only for it to freeze the globe and boom 2142 setting with the encroaching ice age.
There's been a bit of discussion around that...
Before now I always believed the 2142 ice age was a nuclear ice age, brought by a Fallout-esque nuclear exchange in a 21st century Great War.
But your theory is probably more logical, and I've seen theories about this very thing happening in real life as well, a next ice age in about 100-200 years.
I'd go as far as to say that it's a guarantee at this point. They better not fuck it up this time
Considering there is real discussion with certain types like Bill Gates, to block out some sun light by recreating the effects of a volcanic ash cloud. So this is pretty current. And the Ai aspect could be inspired by the latest Mission Impossible movie.
Lots of names and places mentionted...wouldve been nice if the lore was more accessible and gameplay oriented.
100% agree. The lore for 2042 suffers because it's all fragmented online and largely in written form. We need cinematics, but that boat has sailed.
Comet, a lore god for 2042, has an archive useful for understanding the lore of the game. It’s still under reconstruction but it’s still a lot to go over. I can link it if you like
@@Flakfiremy personal issue with some of the lore is that it’s locked behind playercards in the store. You literally have to buy the lore.
Random thought, but I have to wonder if any of the stuff surrounding terraforming technology or the wild weather events are at all tied to the Easter egg in Firestorm. I really enjoyed that game mode and felt it was building to something huge, that just got scrapped and left behind.
I'll never forgive dice for not supporting that mode it was so good 😔😔
I never got that well acquainted with Firestorm, but didn't feature some ominous hidden lore as well?I could see your theory being true!
I doubt it, it was tied to the Masterman/Phantom EEs in BF4 and BF1.
@@therealmvpls1149same as hazard zone. Make it f2p, make it more harder, make the objective more clearer, provided multiple ways to escape and play.
And it would have been great..
Dice gives up way too fast, because their base game is never polished
Boreas almost definitely also has links to what was going on in the installation on Exposure, that's when we first started hearing about Boreas and even got a universal weapon skin by that name.
It's boreal btw. The universal weapon skin. Not boreas
@@GazDaLad That's basically the same thing, "boreal" at its root just means "of Boreas," since Boreas isn't part of common knowledge anymore they've rewritten it in more common terms as "of the arctic."
The lore for 2042 is so embarrassing IMO. The fate of the world comes down to 12 distinct and different characters who also run around massive battles with “trademark gadgets,” costumes and seemingly walk out of each conflict unscathed AND control different factions.
It’s like a discount military Avengers or something. Doesn’t feel like battlefield at all.
I think it's pretty clear that the lore is completely disconnected from the gameplay.
Which is stupid, because if they never added the specialists as playable characters, then this lore would probably be dope as fuck.
I agree with you. 2042's story is just boring and uninteresting.
@@itstommymatelores pretty good but not presented well you actually have to search for clues and put stuff together to get the story
@@lachlans9036that doesn’t make it good lore for battlefield.
Imagine if this dumb military Avengers stuff was put into a WW2 battlefield game or something… battlefield isn’t a game with “villains and heroes” it’s a world about armies and nations
@@LateNightHalo the lore of 2042 is two nations trying to scramble for control of the remnants of society and the no pats have to choose sides between Russia and the United States the specialists are a bit cartoony in presentation but they make sense to a degree
I think something they're missing out on is linking 2042 to 2142. 2142 and its fight over the last of the habitable land as a new ice age comes along. If they had something to show how the ice age came about or even some build up to the formation of the PAC. Maybe some sort of fight over the technological break throughs that lead to the Walkers or Titans. 2142 may be 100 years in the future but its not too off to say that 2042 is about the right time to start some events that lead to how things are in 2142. Like how 1942 is 100 years before 2042, even today a lot of our technology especially military stuff has its roots in 1940's, 50's, 60's. And they could tie in Bf4's final stand dlc and some of the lore you could get from those maps. There are so many opportunities they're not taking with the story and it really feels like the writing team haven't taken the time to learn about previous games in the series to take inspiration.
Hot take: new map is inspired or reimagined Hainan Resort
I hope somehow we find out that Solis(firestorm) is back, ie hydra making a return haha.
I want to learn more about the firestorm story
Maybe they can write playable soldiers into the game this way😭Seriously, I just wanna play as a green army dude
But I'm interested in this AI plot, hoping for the best but my expectations are super low.
Hope all's well w ya Flakfire it's always a good day when you drop a video. Quality > quantity
This feels like setting up some war games setting br world building
Maybe 2042 should've been a BR in the first place, then they make a classic Battlefield set in like 2025, à la BF2/3/4
Wow, that AEK gameplay feels so satisfying. Reminds me a lot on how this gun is so OP in BF4.
It should be a challenge for Bf RUclipsrs to play something other than Assault.
Irish is actually my most played "specialist"
Playing falk as my main and popping off with rez and smokes, it’s got the same feel of a revive like bfv. I haven’t really touched assault cuz it’s not my style.
@@Mionzi_Gamez i usually main Rao. Because I love seeing Vehicle mains scramble.
@@lumineniananubis4161 soflam and hacks on helis, paired with javis is *chef kiss* beautiful. only downside is people counter it by poping flares or smokes early. (which is a decent enough of a get away)
@@Mionzi_Gamez Sometimes lock on them, but don't shoot. Sometimes they pop their flares prematurely and then you shoot them.
the description for that 2nd player card about the sky being fake reminds me that they are growing humans out of labs to make grown soldiers instantly which could be interesting if dice in s6 event have it like regular 64 player conquest but with bots fighting alongside so 32 players and 32 bots vs 32 players vs 32 bots or something like that
Well, this game could actually have had a super cool single player campaign.
I don’t think the colored sections in the map leak are the HQ spawns, I think they might be objectives capped by the teams already, like B & D already capped while C remains neutral
Here come the T-units, HK Drones and Enforcement Droid 209's.
Maybe they should transition to a different era as the the war progresses into the further future. Theyll be space battles or a future ice age with reoccurring cast but with cyborg limbs n shit. Then the title of the game becomes 2142. Like a mind-blowing twist.
Another great video, you don't post much but when you do it's quality. Good work recapping the lore, and the speculation about what the playercards mean is very interesting. I also love your ideas for the limited time game modes, always thought Battlefront could've done with a vs AI gamemode against droids.
Also love the reference to a Hardline map, as one of the people who loved that game's maps, especially Hollywood Heights. But with how small the map looks, I do hope we'll get 2 new maps next season because while small maps are fun they get repetitive quicker than larger ones imo.
hopefully it's hyping up to a 2142 sequel.
Hopefully
If we're only in the year 2048 I doubt see a sequel to that happening for awhile.
@@niccolo2257 we went from BF2 to 2142...
@@niccolo2257 exactly. We might not get another battlefield for 2 or 3 years. All they have to do is explain the post-collapse ice age and we're back to 2142
@@niccolo2257 Are you incapable of logic?
It's a trash fire but I'm interested in seeing what they throw in the bin next.
If I may ask, what stick sensitivity are you using?
🎉🎉🙋🙋I’ve got an idea why wouldn’t dice allow us to mix vehicles and weapons from different BF games in portal and create our own armies it would be amazing to mix the Bradley from BC2 and tiger 1 from BF1942 with bf2042 and it goes with the main story of bf2042 game ,didn’t they say that there’s shortage in supplies and and the nations are fighting please I want dice to recognize this it’s important and people are creative we will see so much fun modes
No just no 😂
@@lachlans9036 why not
@@HHR-en1hb tiger against an Abrams how do you think that will go
@@lachlans9036 yes abrams would absolutely win but the thing is I don’t care about that I can play with bots , and if u remember u can actually do a match in which bf2042 vs bf1942 ,.. bro I’m talking about portal servers
So have they said when is the next battlefield coming out?
2024 or 2025 most likely
Honestly I would like it if some characters got cyborg skins or something like that. An AI/cybernetic themed season would be cool
No thanks, battlefield needs grounded reality not more fortnite
@@snaakie I agree I just think some skins could be cool looking
@@snaakie Maybe that's the grounded reality we're facing 20+ years from now.
I say 'maybe' rhetorically.. That IS our reality awaiting us.
@@snaakie 100%. It doesn’t need more absurd things like that. Granted it’s a modern/futuristic era, but if they gonna put something like that, it should be grounded in reality. Like some lightweight combat suit.
Why TF havent seen your youtube channel before????? Dude I love your content
Idk ask RUclips 🤷♂️
Thumbnail CC: _Hey everyone, it's BLACKFIRE_
I mean... that's the first time when a CC make it sound cooler than it is.
could it be the new sphere that was built in las vegas? hmm
So, ima need like Lore video becouse I for sure did not knew there was this lore segment in 2042, I knew there were hidden details but I Never bothered to check it out
Dice following trends again... first battle royale, now Chat GPT
If they go back to 32v32 I'll be mad
Same. Battlefield was always about going bigger in scale. Now everyone's been too infected by CoD and wants to shrink down to tiny maps.
@@pissyourselfandshitncoom2172 Exactly!
50v50 max or else be mad
Flack is literally the only way I hear about lore for 2042. Too bad the story fell by the wayside given how much promise it had. And did they really solve climate change in 6 years?
Wish next bf another factions step in this fiction war of 2042
We know this all precedes the story, lore, and tech of BF 2142. Can we glean any insight into what is gonna happen here in 2048 with that lens?
is that a project borealis reference from half life 2? 🧐
So is the next game gonna be Battlefield Rising Revengence?
Any new content would be welcomed! The game is a lot of fun now. With more content in the main game and portal it can still reach its full potential.
Nice
Honestly, a mode with AI waves of sorts pitted against a team of humans would be kind of cool. The bots can be lethally effective sometimes.
That's a scenario I'd like to see.
The ai in this game is pretty inconsistently bs
@@CMDRFandragon They're usually better teammates than 90% of human players, tho.
@@foabmoab hmm...no the 2042 ai are useless teammates....63 of the 63 ai will run past me n not rez, wont give ammo, etc...even using callouts. Though, that says something about players as well
@@CMDRFandragon I get more ammo, meds and revives than human players on average. Plus they'll play the objectives.
I don’t care how good the AI is on this game. I want to play multiplayer with humans not computers.
Okay? Than play servers without bots, and let us have fun killing the bots 😂.
Can't wait till a new BF game
I have read every card and I Still can't figure out the lore.
Nice ai will be improved
Wow
Story literally lost my attention after 30 seconds. Yaawwnnn. Can we get a regular video game again!
Im telling you, this games story is awesome, its just not told the way it deserves to be told.
Universal Soldier hmm
I don't think I will ever play 2042, out of pure spite 😂
Same my steam still shows it last played on Feb 22, 2022. Lmao I uninstalled it that day. So much had changed in my own life since then. Lol 😮
That’s so cool of you bro 😎
If you're on PC or Xbox, you can try it for literally five dollars. If you can get over your preconceived notions of the game being terrible, there's a decent chance you'll enjoy it.
Game is actually fun now
@@Theosake thats true! No mans sky made huge come back… but it took a long time.
HL3 CONFIRMED
Since when did flakfire start using a controller?
I have always been a controller player. The last time I regularly used m&k was probably 2008.
What happened to just normal wars
2042 has story?
Perfect opportunity for dice to add new variations for ranger and some skins as well, more intuitive commands.
Maybe add a medic ranger that will drag you closer to a medic or just revive you. Or a repair ranger that can periodically fix some portion of damage your vehicle takes... there's so much wasted potential with ranger and a season that focus on AI should definitely bring something new to the most overlooked character in the game.
I've literally never read any lore 🤣🤣🤣
i doubt the majority of the players have... putting lore in the game was as pointless as a screen door on a submarine
I kinda think the BF 7 leak with an extraction mode in a massive Moscow map would be dope. A lot of this "new" lore and cosmetics are teetering on Fortnite level trash however :/
I doubt they will touch an extraction mode again since the current one suuuucks and nobody likes it
thats a great idea!
@@kanick1983 I hear ya. The crux of where I'm coming from is that I want it to go back to the BF3/BF4 days of gameplay, lore, weapons and cosmetics.
@@isaacrhodes4617 Honestly I dont think anyone pays attention to the lore really.. i doubt people play the game for that....
@@isaacrhodes4617 but I 100 percent agree it needs to go back to the BF3/4 era with gameplay and stuff
the nopat country should have been named Outer Heaven
Is this game still going?!
Cyberfield 2048
They should've made a game in the 2020s first, then make 2042 in a few years.
I think the world of 2042 was too far away for most people to understand. Only those of us who know where the world is headed could understand the world of 2042. They could've referenced pandemics and lockdowns more, so people make the right connections of what's going on.
Thats BF3 and BF4. But personally I was hoping BF2042 would be current time.
Well they somehow got mercenaries doing the dirty work for the big powers spot on. The no-pats are basically a mix of Wagner, Blackwater and the Ukraine foreign legion.
God I miss the earlier Battlefield games. All this futuristic shit has grown tiresome.
lets just cut the lore crap out cause its a battlefield game.. we just want good maps and good war gameplay... i highly doubt most of the players give two shits about the lore in the game lol
does anyone actually care about the lore that has zero impact on the actual game that shipped without a single player mode where this stuff can actually matter ...
It’s pinch of salt, not grain 😂
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_grain_of_salt
@@Flakfire ok, fair point. It’s pinch for me tho… 😉
Rather investing on bs backstory they should invest making the game more balance,
The Vehicle to Infantry balance is fucked from the beginning... Should look into that
Or as they say... Balancing a game is
"Brutal expectations"
BEST BATTLEFIELD HANDS DOWN!!!!
You're definitely a new fan.
The lore feels like a last minute thrown together story, much like the game itself tbh.
I haven't paid attention to it and have little to no interest in the "lore". They need to do better.
I’m planning on buying this game on sale or am getting it for free since DICE took about the same time to fix their last game.
No Pats idea was dumb. This idea is convoluted and sounds dumb with the use of no pats.
Battlefield doesn’t hold a candle to Call of Duty right now.. and that’s saying a lot. I’d rather go back to hardline 2 than whatever this is
a jet pack would be cool in this game
No
Just let this die and start from the scratch. I don't even care about the 100 euro I paid for the preorder. Just want a proper Battlefield and not fancy operators shit.
Honestly not a big fan of the ridiculous skins or storyline stuff... while I do enjoy the game I really wish they wouldn't go this way, with this almost fantasy stuff..
At this point, everyone is waiting for the next BF. 2042 is a flop and they don't want to admit it.
Worse, it's "the player fault because they don't understand" their specialists shit. I now understand why all the former Dice devs left the boat.
Serious question and not trying to be mean.. but does anyone genuinely play this game anymore? I remember the mass exodus off this game just months after launch and I don’t think it ever recovered.
7500 people were playing on steam 18 minutes ago
I mean I feel you but I also feel like there has been a little bit of resurgence to the game. Like just as a casual I can see more ppl hopping in battlefield bc cod is complete ass as well
Yes, there has been a merging of current players playing past BFs coming into 2042 and many new international players. Top channels like Jackfrags, Levelcap, and Flakfire keep the game healthy. It's come a long way, but it's actually in a good state currently with more to come.
@@Tabulatelk15drop in the bucket
@@Tabulatelk15 that’s really good to hear… I’m actually happy to hear that, but I’ll be honest I stopped playing this game when I went into a server and some random guy on the other team messaged me and he said “hey look at who were playing lol” then left and it was all AI’s. I was like wtf…
Im a new subscriber... but i guess you've already heard that you sound just like Tucker Carlson giving news on battlefield right? 😂 love it
eww
@@Flakfire apparently not then 😂 anyways, great channel... found you through shorts
To be fair id hate to be compared to that jackass too aha
How dare you lol
@ItZxPaYDaYx sounds like ima bout to get canceled if I know America, right.... please be gentle, for I am but a simple swede 😂 I'm not used to that kind of censorship yet
Does anyone really care for their chors and backstoris ? Seriously, no matter how much they invest the disconnection between the game and community is real and no one really no one sympathise or even wants to know the bs soldier wanna be no pats Mercineries
well if the next game has anything that you have been talking about here and also based on comments from Jackfrags this next BF is going to suck balls!!!!!
Sadly you're right. Battlefield is dead
new map is nice but the whole game fd up so hard i simply cant play it, still playin BFV, which is an excellent BF game imo, too sad it got cancelled, but almost turned to be really good
Next battlefield should be WW3 NATO vs Russia, China and N Korea. 😭😭😭 imagine the storyline/campaign takes place in 2030 and shows how big the Ukraine war escalated now it follows different American soldiers (pilot, tank driver and infantry) and a Russian soldier similar to BF3 campaign.
So America is the bad guy???? If the next BF is following this one, just don't bother
The way you sweat is infuriating! How am i supposed to win against you on an handheld device!
?
I just hope they don’t mess it up cuz it’s in a good spot now lol guess we will see
Incoherent lore, who tf are any of these people
Lol hyperborea is real in Bf2042. This game is actually getting pretty good.
first
😂 Nope
None of this bland crap lore-story matters more than real armies fighting in their military uniforms. USA, China, Russia etc...
Any news on the next battlefield? Miss playing Bf games but not gonna support a company that caused so much uproar in the community and alienated so many of us.
Dice confirmed that specialists were misunderstood by the fans which is a red flag.
Damn they're really turning Battlefield into..... 'NOT Battlefield'... and they're doing great. Great at erasing the Battlefield we know of.
2042 about to get real stupid. It was nice in past titles as the detail they added had real life history. I can't get into the lore of a fake battle and the game doesn't feel gritty enough for me and destruction in this day with the tech is horrible.
This is getting to dark and im actually enjoying it
Not easy to understand your speaking style and vocabulary for an non english ... 😅
its gonna be found out that the whole thing is a simulation - the whole game. kind of breaking the 4th wall.
from the sounds of it
I hate forced crossplay with PC players on xbox. Crossplay should only be for consoles not with PC.
