Don't get me started guys 😂
Dice: Hold my beer
I mean it's free now lol
He'll there's a bug where everytime I try to get into a game it just boots me back to the game mode select menu like wtf dice
you pc players should turn off crossplay so us console players can get on with our lives lol
The majority of players being gone would explain why theres seemingly ONLY tryhards OR noobs to be stomped with no in between...
Battlefield 2042 has been one long grueling session of watching DICE learn how to make a video game all over again. We're only here now because the communtiy had to verbally bash the devs over the head to tell them what should be in a Battlefield game.
Imagine calling a fucking scoreboard a "brutal expectation".
Imagine being do dumb you think that's what they were referring too idk maybe the fact this game needs to run on og xbone yet yall expect the best possible game worthy of a next Gen experience... smhhh
Tbf most of the original devs of the _good_ battlefields have left, and so have the people responsible for executive design choices etc.
It's not us watching dice learn how to do it again, we're watching a different DICE learning it for the first time
Also, by now the game is definitely enjoyable. Not nearly the quality it's like but worth the 18 bucks I spent on buying myself the full copy today. Luckily there was a free week so I could test it. I owned it on console on release and it was HELL, now it is super fun and pretty addicting, just how I like my battlefield. Sometimes frustrating because TTK and balancing is a bit off, but it's a solid game now
Only real problem I have is an issue where the game won't boot, which is a problem of the EA launcher I'm pretty sure
@@KA-vs7nl i would hope bfv plays better then a side mode based on 1942 lmaooo
They hired to many women.
I mean you have to imagine it since no one is calling it that.
Guns without recoil, no skills required, people flying everywhere, robots everywhere, soulless maps, connection problems, servers full of AI, the list goes on. This game is absolute trash, no update can save it.
Well, these things are what makes me like the game lol
Apart from the Maps, they are good now
I think if they just give only one of battlefailed 2042 updates to bfv or bf1 would be much better
Soulless maps? I would say Kaleidoscope has a soul.
@@carved6749maps of 2042 are garbage shit compared to any other bf game ever.
Running as American soldier on the Russian team hearing your teammates speaking Russian but your character is speaking clear English 😂
The factions are so boring too, it's US vs Russia except neither actually look like an army. They act like all of western Europe doesn't exist as well as every country in south America, Africa, or southeast Asia and especially china. But hey, more skins for the kiddos is more important than any sort of competent world building.
@@lumbagoboi1649 which is sad, cause they did US, Russia and CHINA better in BF4. That was almost 10 years ago
@@BLUESHYGUY8000 yeah battlefield 4 actually felt more like the end of the world since the 3 major global powers were killing each other in destroyed looking maps. Battlefield 2042 feels like a few mercenaries beating each other up in a parking lot- zero stakes, zero tension.
They just didn't think anything through at all
its because youre playing as "No-Pats" basically soldiers from countries who have collapsed and are now basically mercs under the control of russia and america, its a cool story idea but just comes off as a cheap way to sell operator skins
Jackfrags with the clickbait titles. Every two weeks he says that the game is finally good. Soooo... which of the 30 instances is it Jack?
Astroturf salesman jack, no different than a lot of paycheck dependents of today. Permanently pushing the standards of quality of life down to secure that scrip.
You can't just be direct about it like the old days either. You get assblasted with censorship for call outs. A simple "You arrogant ass, you've killed us" is more likely to be hidden under a pile of charlatans and useful idiots.
For real man, I used to be subscribed but those titles passed me off and wasn't about to support him.
It doesn't matter if you make a 3 hours documentary voiced by Morgan Freeman pointing all the game's problems. Some people are easily satisfied and just don't care about quality or depth to their products, hence why the industry has such low standards right now
What are talking about bro, the game lost its player base only a month after release. The game got shit on I think people understand standards lol
Fun fact it’s very active right now
Or hear me out here
People have opinions, balance has never been a battlefield strong suit, a lot of people like games when they can have fun
I bet you play cod though.
i mean like if you ask me personaly is the game fun, yeah hell yeah it's fun, but it's even a good game ? well depend on what aspect
This is not a BF game it’s COD with heroes
@NateZurlent yes I do
@NateZurlent this is the worst games to be called BF no class weapon restrictions no one plays correctly
I'm 46 and been gaming longer than most. My eldest is also a gamer and a Battlefield fan. I only tried 2042 because it was on Game Pass and I'm having fun but I don't sing its praises. I loved BC1 & 2, BF3 and BF4 and miss those days
I'm 40 and been playing BF since the first came out. Been plating DICE-games all the way back to Pinball Illusions and Pinball Dreams :) This is absolutely a fun game for a couple of hundred hours, but then it kinda dies down.. But lucky for us, we can just start BF1 or BF5 or BF3 Reality Mod or whatever floats your boat! There's always gonna be a battlefield just around the corner!
@@dhelgesson pinball Dreams on my Amiga 😉, who could've guessed a pinball game could be so addictive. Good Times 👌
im 45, and at first, i was doing great. then todays update hit, and viola! i went from scoring atleast 10 kills to having 0. zero. got spanked. over n over. i at first thought, wow, its so much better than cod. update, then everyone is jump slide head shotting. spawn trapping, even executing me through a wall. oh well, back to waiting for a good fps.
@@ralphharrison6622 Yeah I think they started with the sliding back in BF1 and now its just in all the games.. It messes with the immersion and makes no sense seeing people slide around like derpy dolphins. But you know, Gen Z is a special kind of weirdos.
Are you me? Same story and same thoughts.
The biggest issue I have is being beamed from 100-150m away with weapons on full auto. Every weapon seems to have ridiculous range. Like an smg shouldn’t be challenging an ar at range in any circumstances.
Edit, haha I wrote this before you started talking about engagement distances.
This alone destroys the game.
But it's crazy if people adjust their field of view they got almost no recoil at all I seen some pc players playing on RUclips shooting lmgs at 100 150 meters like it's nothing with no recoil
Like the MTAR21 having the same range as a M16, that shit is funny. MP9s and the new AC9 got some crazy range too with them short ass barrels
Bullets kill tho wouldnt you agree 😂
Its the future
How can anyone call this a good game when 12 year olds fly around the map in a wing suit ffs
thank you for making me feel less crazy. there's so much public complacency with FPS games in general
The issue with this which I'm starting to learn as I get older is this game was never meant for old BF fans. The reason we keep complaining is because we want the old BF basically but EA wants a newer fanbase. This reminds me of R6S and everyone hated it but they didn't change it because they knew they would lose the old fanbase but gain a new one. The last two BF games clearly was trying to get rid of us and gain a new fanbase but the games were trash so it didn't work. At least R6S was decent so it worked out for them. Tbh I just let BF go after 2042. I'll appreciate the BF for what it was and I hope the new fans like the direction the game is going in
@@Tuelz...Atleast 5 and 1 still was built from the foundation as a Battlefield game. 2042 was built as a BR style hero shooter, then was forced into a Battlefield game....that never felt like one and still doesn't for most of the time..

Literally one of the worst AAA games of all time. That's never changing.
Deleted the game after playing for a month. Game not bad but boring and felt pointless on my time
This game will always sucks. There is no redemption like bf5 or battlefront 2. It will always be bad.
Worst BF, worst gun play, terrible weapons and attachments, specially scopes, most unconfortable FPS ever, I won't come back ever to this shitty game. That's the good thing about watching Enders, he always speaks the truth about how trash this game is.
If they think this is you being harsh, those people clearly haven't been here long
i agree very harsh
Remember when they tried to tell a story about war?
Not make fun of it?
I got IP banned off reddit for saying this
lmfao
Most of you guys really dont see the real situation behind these games that are coming out recently. Take this piece of dog shit game for example. They knew the backlash would come from revealing the face of the sundance character so they hid it in their trailers. They never showed the goofy characters before preorders. For the most part of the trailer, they were showing us the properly dressed AI characters and when they showed any operator it was the serious and the tactical looking ones. So this shows one thing that they know what will trigger us beforehand and what we like and with these selective trailers they are manipulating their player base and after they take their pre-order money, they reveal what they were hiding from us. Now you start to question. they know the problems with their games before release, they know it will fail, but who is forcing them to make these changes?
True.🤔
I've been a diehard Battlefield fan since the beginning and I got to say that Battlefield 2042 is total f**king trash! It doesn't even slightly compare to Call of Duty modern warfare ll.
I saw battlefield 2042 being sold at target for $18 on PS5 and my first thought was “hold up didn’t this JUST come out? Why’s it so discounted” and now I know why 😂
Picked up the game yesterday for 10 euros. I had some fun in 64 player conquest, but the 128 player is most of the time unplayable, due to the massive vehicle spam and explosives AKA all the bullsh@t Enders mentioned in the previous video's. Like you said Enders, i had alot of fun these 4-5 h i played, but this is the bare bones minimum that the game should have launched. Take care keep up the good work man.
They ruined BF with 128 players. I went to play 64 player conquest, and the pacing feels so much better. It’s like ur not dying as much compared to 128 players.

Especially BF4 on release 😂
@@TheSkyNlnja it fucking sucked tbh lol but now it's a well missed masterpiece
Don't forget SimpFrags was saying the game is good from DAY ONE, he only took a step back after the hate for BF 2042 was too high.
He said beta was fun. People have the memory of goldfish
I don’t blame him. His career depends on the game/series being popular
Bf4 was a broken disaster for a full year after launch and took 2 years of updates to make it the game it became. Bf1 has the most shallow gameplay in the series and was objectively the easiest bf game to play. Hardline was fun for a distraction, but didn't really feel like battlefield to many players. Bfv was an aimless mess for it's first year before covid killed it. So tell me when exactly was the last time battlefield launched this mythical perfect game that your claiming exists?
reddit is the same, a lot of posts about redemption and how good the game is now, its really disappointing that peoples standards have dropped so low.
SquidG is the embodiment of a battlefield 2042 shill
It's tripple A game. We should have high expectations. We pay for it more than there is content in this game... And even skins there are just bad...
Skins arent that bad but who cares....rather have much more maps 🤦🏼♂️
@@NateT092most of skins are literally reskins and I need to pay extra for that mess. Maps... I have nothing good to say about it...
If we want a good game with the next Battlefield then this is the way. Dice has a habit of taking positive feedback and thinking that this is what people want. I guarantee they think specialist are good now and want to bring them to the next game. They will also think quality over quantity will work, instead of thinking quality with quantity will be great when it comes to content. Constructive feedback is better then just telling them how great they are doing.
Specialists are indeed coming next game, along with a "classic" mode, some of that information was leaked weeks ago.
They need to have some sort of competition to allure their older player base away from an EA/DICE Battlefield. Guarantee if that happens they’ll loose their shit and have to actually be smart about the product they put out.
Very well said. Just cause the game isnt as shit as it was launch doesn't mean its a good game suddenly. Its still painfully mediocre
Keep preaching - getting better , yes of course but GOOD , hell no
my main problem with the game is it feels way to clunky and sluggish, the movement is so rubber bandy and i just cant stand playing it. And none of the guns actually feel stronger or weaker, every gun is just a reskin that either does more or less damage
Bro don’t realize what year it is now😂 everything sucks cod been sucking battlefield hasn’t been the same since battlefield 4😂😂
BF1
I remeber the days of BF3. that's my most top BF game ever. compareing it to BF2042 is like compareing sh*t to a diamond. and you know which is what.
if the next BF game won't be at least somewhat close to BF3 or BF4 - i won't even think to buy it.
Even if BF3 released now people would be playing it in the next 15 years until 2038 it was way ahead of it's time.
BF4 was definitely the start of the downfall and it's just gotten awful since
Here’s a fact. BF 2042 is a downgrade to past BF games. Literally the game has no similarity to past BF games.
This game is still made out of Lego
💀
@@NateZurlentHe just said it
Launch now and fix it later has been the dice motto since the battlefield mc 2 remaster. BF3 launched buggy and unbalanced and BF4 was unplayable. Took them months to fix both and now they are the goats. Not saying it's right just saying it happened.
I am afraid we may never get gun play similar to battlefield 3 or 4 because the devs want little Timmy to have fun so he can get mom’s credit card to buy some cosmetics.
Sadly, I think you're right 🤦♂️
Ugh I fear this is the truth
@NateZurlent not me but yea people would lol!
great video enders. on point as always
Im honestly sick of Jack frags saying the game is good now... It's never been good it's still trash and feels unfinished and thrown out the door....ive barely picked it up since it came out because it feels so terrible to play it. I have more fun on bf4 even now....
I could use the same weapon in BFBC2 and BF3 for hundreds of hours and still not get bored of it.
Last year when I jumped back on BF3 I was trying weapons I've never even used after over 3000+ hours playtime and I had a blast getting used to them, also being shocked how good they where but mainly the fact that I never got round to even trying them out.
Meanwhile 2042 I'm completely bored of them all with 650 hours playtime.
Even the newest weapons I find dull and that's because without any learning curve an just having basic pick up and play mechanics makes for a very boring game.
You do not have to compensate for anything other than a little bit of recoil that actually feels off or quite random in 2042.
Recoil, what's that? People nowadays just want to hold the fire button down at any range.
I think it's the fact that none of the guns in 2042 have their own personality, if that make sense. No unique recoil patterns to master, all the guns sound almost identical, same reload animations for all, ect. That's part of the reason why I love BF3 & BF4 gunplay. Each gun felt unique.
I feel like the weapons were designed by people who dont know about actual guns in real life they all feel sound and look the same to me somehow 0 passion
Weapons feel so utterly lame to use. You can see it especially in contrast to the current MW2 which arguably has one of the most immersive gunplays to date. Animation and Sound design itself is just on a completely different level. Even though they failed on every other aspect of the game, at least they got the guns right, and those have way more impact on the enjoyment of the game or gameplay than people might think.
@@Wolfdog1942 Who cares about realism? BF is a casual shooter lmao.
The main reason I uninstalled this, becuz gunplay doesn't feel like BF anymore and the BF identity was lost since the og developers left DICE, so we got this turd
Probably one of the best videos you've ever released
Couldn't agree more, I still enjoy hopping on with friends. But even so many of the basic quality of life features are either straight up dumb, or missing. And the engagement distances comment was on point, I don't even want to run a sniper anymore because it feels pointless most of the time, used to love sniping
Alone the fact that you can see the name tags of enemy players makes this game very bad and uplayable, since this will help you alot to kill them (or make it easier for the enemy to kill you). You were able to spot an enemy through the smoke at 1:45 even though you did not see him, just because of the name tag. Thats a no go for me.
Not crazy about Enders personality. But I still respect his skill and his insight/commentary on Battlefield. I still find myself agreeing with him 98% of the time.
Man is spitting facts.
Release a better game and I'll be less annoyed 😎 thx tho I appreciate it
I agree with some problems and the fact that the game released in the worst state but half of what you said after that was lies and the other half was just skill issues. I'm not saying its a good game, just that your arguments are not real sound like skill issues (the part on the vehicules for exemple).
Totally agree. IF released in this state, 2042 would probably be pretty decent/good right now after months of updates. It’s disappointing to think about the potential this game had if the developers had just stuck to the foundations and released the game in its current state :/
Modern gaming in a nutshell. Release a broken, threadbare, glorified alpha, sell it for £70, and call it "live service"
Some of the primary technical issues with the game are related to the expansive compatibility list, which expires at the end of season 4. The recent engine threading update noticeably improved high end PC gameplay (not sure if it adversely affected potato rigs), but the server/client update rate is apparently running at 45hz, since "super bullets" are still a problem. I tend to look at BF2042 as a three year CTE for the new engine and next Battlefield, and hopefully they won't format it for children running 10 year old consoles on dialup.
Not lower tickrare but DICE decided to "update" their lag compensation to make the game more inclusive for "rural player". The same mindset made them get rid of scoreboard. The result is the game's hitreg is utterly broken. This game actually plays better on 100-150ping than lower ping.
What do you mean the conpatibility expires? Are they shutting off last-gen console versions of the game or something after Season 4?
@@Calvin_Coolage the game was sold with 4 seasons of support for the stated compatibilty list. they have slready stated that the next bf will exclude older hardware.
@@byronfranek2706 Oh so then this is the last season then? No wonder they made it free on Playstation.
@@Calvin_Coolage there is a season 5
I agree with you. Also, I believe they should turn off cross play. Whatever their anti-cheat system is it's broken.
Haven’t seen a cheater in a very long time. I think you’re just wrongfully accusing other players of cheating
I played it. Felt fun but it didn't feel like a real Battlefield game, just some imposter that doesn't hold a candle to Battlefield 1. Thanks for keeping it real and not being another Jackfrags.
So pleased to see this. As someone who has both just downloaded bf2042 for free via PS+ (on ps4), and has also been hyper aware of these jack frags “BF2042 is GOOD NOW PLAY IT!” videos and the reception of those. Everything you’ve mentioned is absolutely factual, from lack of vehicle mechanics resulting in a lower vehicle skill gap, lack of content, lack of balance, but I’ve got to say the absolute worst thing about this title is the fact it quite simply should of been illegal to advertise it the way they did with the last gen version. It’s a shell of an already broken game… the input delay is worse than anything I’ve ever played in my life (including free IOS games), the already underwhelming full maps are even worse on last gen, and worst of all the single shot glitch that still gets me killed 3/4 times a game at least, etc. I’m having fun, but I will not except people calling this a “good game”, it’s an insult to a franchise I’ve loved for a decade.
Me and my buddies play this game on last-gen and honestly we don't know what you're talkin about.
The game feels really really good in fact the input delay is hardly there at all and they're still patching it but only an idiot wouldn't realize that.
Lack of vehicle Mechanics? What do you want the vehicles to do have the ability to do a backflip? Pretty much everything that vehicles can do in the past games they can do in 2042.
You really not making much sense here which somehow makes sense and is not surprising.
@@stratejic1020 I’m gonna apologise in advance for being rude but you’ve given me good license to ask what is most likely a stupid question at this point in proceedings… Are you fucking deluded?
1: the input delay most certainly is there, and only an idiot would think its acceptable that a year and a half into the life cycle of a game that cost £70 or so the input delay is still this catastrophically bad, especially given that to access half of the features advertised (portal, hazard zone, certain MP modes) you need to enable cross play with next gen/ PC just to find servers, ultimately meaning you have to sacrifice any competitive edge you may have had as a skilled player just for an entry ticket to content you purchased.
2: This is the embarrassing one mate. No……….. I do not want the vehicles to do backflips you colossal moron, and from that display of a complete lack of understanding I’m going to assume you’ve got an IQ below room temperature or haven’t played a battlefield title prior to BFV (or likely, both). In previous games the vehicles had vast skill ceiling’s, a bunch of strats, and it would genuinely take hundreds if not thousands of hours to even understand what mastery even meant for a particular vehicle. In battlefield 2042 the vehicles- and particularly the aircraft- feel floaty, weightless. There is no longer a high level of skill and understanding needed to truly profit of them, just hop in, click ‘assisted flight’😕 and lap up the rewards. The transports are STILL the most powerful vehicles…
There are bugs that still make the game almost unplayable. The balance between portal content and AOW content is abysmal to the extent that certain content creators are downright telling people not to use certain portal guns until they’re “fixed”……. A year and a half and 40 something updates in to the games life cycle, and there’s a fucking plethora of other things I could sit here and rant about, but by god I’m obliged to remind you that this game was sold unfinished, broken, to a fan base that were told the game would be a love letter to them. I AM HAVING FUN but that is irrelevant. This game is abysmal.

Like you, I don't understand why people can't grasp the concept of being critical of something you love because you love it and you want it to be better. Thanks for continuing to not be a corporate shill.
To sum up this video ... no matter what updates or improvements come out for this game because they weren't there from get-go; Enders will say its trash and post videos about it calling it trash. There saved anyone 10mins ~
The core issues that I feel will never be resolved is destruction and the amount of playable vehicles at once being low. Like I get there needs to be some balance to the amount of vehicles on the field but it seemed like pst games had much more active vehicles during battles. I could almost always secure a tank in BF4 or BF1 etc. seems they abandoned destruction and more vehicles for larger maps and more people.

You are correct, it's lowering the bar. If you didn't play for a while and check it out now for a few hours now and then, it's OK, it's fun, it has some connect. But it doesn't last, the issues come nagging at you as soon as you play some more. And it pales in comparison to previous titles.
And keep on mind that it's super likely that the next bf title will be built on the same engine and foundation. Minus any improvements of the last year. When we learned one thing, then that the next title starts many steps behind, never from the last state of the predecessor.
Or in other words, don't expect a scoreboard in the next bf.
I think people are just coping and seething because the game is getting better and people don't like that because they got attached to hating this game people do that with a lot of things they're angry about their lives or they have something going on and so they need an outlet and Battlefield 2042 was an outlet and now it's losing that status.
@@stratejic1020 I think there are two things here. On one side it's great when a hand with issues gets support and is fixed until it is better. And it's fine and good to state that it's better now, maybe even generally good if you'd start with it just now.
The other thing is, that we as consumers should be lots and clear that our is not OK to deliver an unfinished product for full price and take over a year to make it ok. And it's also OK to compare our with other releases which delivered more content on less time.
And everyone should remember, when the next bf hype train starts, not to preorder or buy on release, until you are sure about the state of the release. If they take another 1,5 years to make it a finished product, then we should wait until then before we spend money. The moment you pay is the moment your send a message, that this is OK and worth the money. And if we now go on line bf is great now and all is fine, you just give the approval to release buggy crap with few bad maps and few weapons, to release a shooter without a scoreboard.
@@stratejic1020. Wow, this is a lot of copium you're smoking.
Wrst game ever. JUST REmaster bf3
I can list a big list of what's wrong with it. It's okay now at best.
Edit: Air vehicles are absolutely busted, I agree. Transports shouldn't have splash damage weapons going 100-0 and stealth chopper's shouldn't have bombs while in stealth.
I agree about the transport but my only worry with the stealth helicopter is how much they've nerfed the 30mm cannons to a point where they are pointless and the hit detection on the heavy guns makes them also useless against infantry the inly way they work is if your shooting other helis the bombs are the only way to get kills but I certainly agree they should not work in stealth mode and the stealth mode itself should have a time limit
@NateZurlent I liked your comment, I agree. I'm not looking for the negatives. I really do enjoy BF 2042. I bought it at season 3 and love seeing the newcomers from COD and old BF players returning. I would just like more balance.
@@kylelee1774 you know what? A time limit in steal sounds like a great idea. I didn't even think about that myself. We do however have the tracer to nail them with while in stealth now at least.
@NateZurlent Yeah, I 100% feel you. No need to apologize, my man. You're just as passionate about your favorite shooter as any of us. We all want a common goal and it's to have fun. The game is in a great place right now for sure. Can't wait to see more updates!
@NateZurlent because if we don't call the negative stuff out they will just continue to release unfinished, unbalanced and broken games. You can't just stay positive, unless you want games to get worse and worse in the future
People really hate you, Enders, because imo? You're right. Yeah you're really mad but your criticisms are all technically true, and it's maddening to see people hail it as a 10/10 when it's barely even a beta.
good someone who speaks the truth about the game, good job 💪💪💪
If we all just let these companies give us LESS THAN THE BARE MINIMUM FOR FULL PRICE then we shouldn’t be asking for anything. We’re literally accepting we’re shit takers and it’s cool that people can have fun with the game don’t get me wrong! BUT-BUT!!!!! ALL THESE GAMES ARE COMING OUT IN A STATE WHERE THE COMPANY KNOWS ITS SHIT BUT THEY DROP IT ANYWAYS AND WE KEEP SAYING ITS “GOOD” HUH?!?!?? HAVE SOME DAMN RESPECT FOR YOURSELF PLEASE PEOPLE. THIS WILL ONLY GET WORSE, THEM ADDING SHIT AND NOT FIXING THE GAME FROM THE GROUND UP ISNT OKAY LOOK AT HALO, LOOK AT THIS GAME OPEN YOUR DAMN EYES IT IS A BIG DEAL BECAUSE THE COMPANIES ARE WATCHING EVERYTHING THEYRE NOT STUPID THEY KNOW WHAT THEYRE DOING. DONT HAVE THE HEART TO HATE BUT TO SEE THAT THINGS CAN BE BETTER FOR ALL OF US AS A COMMUNITY BE BETTERRRRRRR!
No need to apologise the game genuinely is very very poor with very lazy development clapping themselves for a "good job" they have done. They should be ashamed of themselves tbh.
The next bf game can you please make a " How to survive a bf release" with bullet points basically telling folks to wait for 6-12 months and they'll get it for free.
I've died more times to the CRAM and the Superhind more then I can count. It's nearly impossible to destroy these overpowered vehicles if you're the only person targeting them
Battlefield is a teamwork style game. Person vs vehicle has never and will never work. It’s beyond simple to kill vehicles in this game if you’re working together.
Killed by a vehicle? Spawn as engineer and take care of it. Stop relying on everyone else to do shit for you. (This is to everyone as a whole… not a personal attack.) 🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@pepjuise24 you understand it doesnt just take 1-2-3 rockets to kill transports right? Battlefield 4 allowed you to simply one shot transport helis with rpgs, but it wasnt that easy, but neither was getting kills in the transport. The 2042 system is unbelievable, get a squad of friends and you are invincible in the transport helis. Even against multiple enemies trying to shoot you down.
@@Kevin-zk1ir I get that. And you’re right. But there’s still the possibility that at any time, at least 32 rocket style weapons can be shooting at these vehicles. They have to be made to take a couple hits. Players need to be quicker to switch class and handle it. 🤷♂️
Megacorp, without anyone actually caring or having ownership of the greater product.
Couldn't agree more, as an old-school BF player I miss the airports and control towers that could be destroyed, man did we ever have fun repairing those towers. Now we spawn straight into an aircraft. I also miss the commander and repairing the artillery, I miss all those types of strategies. Everything you said is spot on, wish more people come out with all the problems with the game but so many people just don't have the balls....
Literally the worst vehicles in a battlefield game. I never get in tanks or choppers because of it.
The game needs a lot of things such Flares, thermal sight on tanks, Commander, UCAV, AC-130, naval maps, gas grenade, battle pickups, DLC maps, campaign, ETC2
Games free on PSN this month and tried it out. Absolutely happy I never bought it, I'd rather play BF4
This why I keep saying I have no hope for the next BF game, in general people have accepted this game as being good now, and that this is the standard that Dice has to meet. Personally I wanted more of leap forward with this game in all areas, in map design, game mechanics, weapons, and destruction. To improve all these things takes time and talent, which is another reason for why I don't think we are going to ever get a really great BF game. The devs they have now clearly don't have what it takes to make a great BF game.
It is the worst Battlefield game since Battlefield 4...easily.
It is still a good game. It will never reach the level of top tier Battlefield 2 or Battlefield 3. Hell, it won't even reach 2nd tier games like Battlefield 1 or V. It is clearly in the "bad" tier of games like Battlefield 4 or Bad Company 2. Those bad games are still really good.
@@BaNgInHeAdS battlefield 4 was fun actually. Battlefield Hardline was the one everyone hated the most at one point 😂
Update: yes I actually liked hardline with the cops and robbers theme.
@@TheJusDon They are all good.
Battlefield 2042 is unplayable on console due to hackers. It's the same problem every Battlefield but yet they continue to put PC and console together. I'm glad Battlefield 2042 failed perhaps next time they will put PC on it's own.
Also, no single player campaign! A few things annoys me the most: unbalanced helis that stays in the air for the hole game, the fact that I can't change squads (had to play solo for a few times) and overpowered gadgets (ex: Irish Sentinel radius and lack of failure rate)
PS: I waited almost a year to buy the game and just did because it costed me 15 euros.
Meh. If Heli's are up and they are bothering you. Switch to recon and lock on with soflam as much as possible. Eventually some engineers will figure it out and take care of it.
The Irish sentinel can be countered by grenades if you bounce it to get closer. Sundance works well with that. But I agree in that it should have a limited capacity and would need to be re placed when it runs out of defense ammo.
Honestly ALL the specialist equipment should require support crates to replenish charges.
@NateZurlent only Bad Company single player
I did had fun, until it devolved into me getting smack around all game from enemies 200 m away......on full auto. Couple with the confusing specialist system (sorry I'm not into hero shooters at all) and I just went back to BFV.
My general mindset on the series has always been "Do not touch a Battlefield game until it has had at least between 6 months to a year to get the wrinkles out, day 1 release has always been rough since BF3"
Except with 2048, these wrinkles have evolved into full blown tears, and need a full, professional sewing job to get it right. And even then, there's just some tears that have been created that cannot be ironed out.
I bought the elite version on sale for 20 bucks, tried it for a few hours and holy shit this game is absolute garbage. Just requested a refund
Totally agree with most of your statements. However, I believe that they put OP weapons in the game on purpose and not because they are dumb. This is totally intended for people to react in a way like "Oh, check out this crazy new gun that shreds people like bots...". They hope for people to return to the game because of totally overdrawn new weapons, just to nerv them again after too many of the remaining fanbase players have heavily complained about them. They try to draw people's attention. As always: Any news is good news.
This is so silly why would you hear "this gated battlepass weapon you need to grind out is overpowered" and then think people will willingly reinstall and subject themselves to dying to it just to reach BP40 and earn it themselves?
Noone does that.
@@Peppermintnull I certainly didn't. I uninstalled when this season dropped instead.
@@Peppermintnull It's a playbook from Call of Duty. People are more inclined to buy the Battlepass and play more. Then they will nerf it a month later just as the masses start getting it.
BuT JaCkFRaGs sAiD it's GoOd nOw!!!
Very good video, I completely agree with your take here. I was super hyped for the release of BF2042 (like many others) and my expectations got absolutely crushed. You can not even really put into words how bad it was, probably the multiplayer pendant to Cyberpunk...
I consider myself as a BF veteran and have thousands of hours played in BFBC2, BF3 and BF4. I kinda jumped off the series with the release of BF Hardline which was a desaster by its concept as we all know and I remember back then it killed the community and player base. With BF1 and BFV the series kinda recovered a bit but unfortunatly the hype never reached the heights from the early and mid 2010s.
Just recently I downloaded the game again on my PS5 to see how the game actually plays. And it definitly is in a "playable" or "solid" state if we compare it to the horrible release, but Enders is 100% on point that it doesn't even come close to the quality of the old titles. The list of potential improvement is still very long and there are a bunch of gameplay and balancing problems with weapons and vehicles.
For me as a Playstation player one of the outstanding issues is still the horrible controller input. I dont understand why they aren't able to universally implement the old aim assist settings of previous popular titles. COD Warzone or APEX should be the prime example here: You can be competitive with either M&K or Controller (with minor advantages/disadvantages depending on the situation), only this can be the fundamental legitimation for a successful crossplay experience.
Aside from that it's a shame that the Battlefield franchise never really profited from the growth of the gaming industry in the last ten years and especially during the pandemic. I think that this aspect also is reflecting itself in the current playerbase where there is still a certain majority of "legacy" and demographically older players, while there is a major struggle to gain younger and completely new gamers (who probably had their first shooter experiences with games like fortnite, warzone or valorant). If EA/DICE want to bring Battlefield back to it's glory days and prevent this franchise from slowly bleeding out, this is one of the main issues they have to adress.
When bf 2042 released i was exetremely disappointed and i actually stopped playing for a while i came back like a week ago, because a friend of mine told me the game was good now, and i was disappointed, again, yes the game is in an acceptable state but it should have released like this.
Battlefield 1 from 2016 running on an Xbox series X at 120fps looks and feels way better than Battlefield 2042 running at 60fps in 2023.
As a film reviewer, I run into the exact same problem with the "lowering the bar" issue. Solid video!
thats why they are starting a year two on bf2042
If the next Battlefield won’t deliver it’s over and out for it. First Medal of Honor and now this.
Folks have pathetic standards these days. Either that or they quite simply do not have the capacity to recognize the good and the bad. Either way, thanks for putting the truth out there, you're fighting the good fight brother.
It is wild how many people in comment sections are praising it. All anyone would need to do is play any other battlefield game and it becomes obvious how bad 2042 is. My assumption is these are mostly young people with no Battlefield experience at all.
All those commenterse were either:
A. Full of Hopium as always, but with the Free PSN players trickling in, they are EXTRA vocal to try and make an illusion the game is amazing to try and salvage the game THEY love.
B. DICE/EA is up to their old tricks again and they are all paid bots.
Started playing bf2042 about a month ago. Learnt a lot, I can say that I am an average skilled player, and I am having a lot of fun playing it. I never experienced previous BFs games, so I can’t compare.
Playing in vehicles is a lot of fun because it’s overpowered, but it’s not fun when someone in the opponent’s team mastered the vehicle and abusing it. “Pro level” helicopter pilot is a nightmare, thanks it’s not happening everyday.
If they release something overpowered, unbalanced - it’s definitely incompetence of testers. I played other EA titles such as FIFA23, and they have this issue all the time, also a lot of mistakes on a daily basis. BF2042 seems like having less problems due to content, but it’s probably because there is much less content than in FIFAs
Unbalanced weapons aren’t a new thing to dice, in bf 1 especially there were quite a few broken guns like the automatico, the a-10, and the martini Henry (which all were nerfed to the ground instead of balanced)
@@faded1887 Not even a DICE thing. Every single popular game gets nerfs and buffs for weapons in every update.
@@civil_fellow2985 yeah I know that I was more so saying battlefield isn’t exactly know for balanced weapons
ENDERS IS THE ONLYYYYYYYYYYY PERSON I SEE TELLING THE TRUTH, THE REST ARE JUST SAYING THE SAME CRAP TO GET VIEWS AND MONEY, THEYRE FRAUDS WE GET IT BUT WE ALL HAVE TO COME AS A COLLECTIVE TO STOP THIS FROM BEING THE NEW STANDARD OF GAMING BEFORE ITS TOO LATE! ENDERS ISNT HATING HE JUST WANTS THE GAME TO BE BETTER FOR ALL-OF-US! IF WE ACCEPT THIS SHIT THEN WE BASICALLY DESERVE SHIT!
Keep up the good work. I was subbed to JackFrags but lately I am feeling like he is turning a blind eye to all the issues of this game. And it makes me to believe that he is influenced by money.
Listening to what you are saying in this video is like you are reading my mind.
I stopped playing this garbage altogether.
Keep up the good work and you will def have more subs.
Thanks Solomon.
You have to be a kid if you believe that dude isn't influenced by cash
Honestly one of my fav rant videos of yours. I usually don’t agree with some what you’re voicing just because I’m of the opinion it’s better to enjoy things than not.
But THATS what’s it is so important, and that YOU mention almost every video. It’s okay to enjoy something and still be critical of it. I’m super casual so my complaints don’t line up with yours every now and then (as a console pleb), but what you said here I was a hallelujah’ing the whole time. It may be enjoyable at times, but don’t call it a good game.
also fucking lmao at the transport heli still being a thing… cmon dice…
**edit, sorry: “cmon EA…. “
(which like duh obvious why it’s garbo still…)
Well well well, aren't you a peach..
I agree, it CAN be fun at times but I can't spend hours playing it like I can with the other titles. I can only play like 2 or 3 rounds before I am done for awhile.
So, for me, it now can be considered a half way decent Battlefield game BUT it is the worst of the franchise and is in no way close to the levels if 3 and 4 .
Not saying people can't enjoy it but for me, it still doesn't have that IT factor that the rest of the franchise had in their games...
I think my issue is that I am more of a traditionalist when it comes to Battlefield games. If it doesn't play like or have some the same formula that the franchise has made over the years then it is a disgrace to the franchise.
As much hate as 5 got and gers, least it was made from the ground up as a Battlefield game first and foremost. And it FELT like it, it flowed like it, had the same formula, etc.
I just don't get that feeling from 2042...
I agree with all your accessments but 1,I still like to play the game! It's not perfect but it's good playable(finally)and it's Battlefield.Not the best one or even a great shooter,but it's still good fun!Only game I know,where you can jump for joy,go full Battlefield,then 13 secs later,throw your controller thru a 50 screen!! Constantly, throughout the map,and game! Guess that makes me a glutton for punishment? But it's great to go back to BF 1,5,4 even 3,whenever I need a fix!!My big gripe is everyone else's also MONEY,or lack of, not value ,worth!The skins weapon game is a fleece,but now they've started nickel and diming maps!!I like the crazy vehicles,the reason I play BF,controls,not so much.They have been much better in the recent past,really always.But it's still Battlefield fun,I like it🔥💪💯🤣🤬🙏😎
maybe its a lot better...to a lot of people. its okay if u still dont like it, but its largely an objectively better game than before. jacksfrags made me wanna buy it, and i dont regret the purchase. its a good game, and thats my opinion, and a lot of others.
yes enders agree, every time i see "it's great now" and "having fun". (with frustration) or "it's fixed now" I instantly think brought off sold your soul, it's like a lot content provider's have been brought off to suck up to DICE and do a great disservice to gaming quality and the future of.
Ill be honest even of this game is "complete" the game itself is trash, i enjoyed all of their games (yes even BFV) but this one is a HUGE miss
