    I stopped playing the game about a month ago because I just don’t enjoy it. I still watch your videos though, because I’ve always watched your battlefield content. I started watching back in the battlefield 3 days and you’ve always represented my love of the franchise. I wish I could enjoy the 2042 like you do, but I respect the fact that you genuinely like playing. Hopefully the game turns around, and I’ll be watching even if it doesn’t. Appreciate your honesty and hope you can continue doing what you love doing.

      Ya. I Stopped 2 TO 3 Months ago it's just like playing Battlefield 3 and 4 upgrade and everything is smaller and weak the Vehicles just suck you can't do much or fix the Vehicles on your own the moment you get hit you barely could get away. And I see players play more the older games on Portal . I would love to see Bad Company 3 , wheres that Franchise.

    Except peoples hatred for BF2042 isn't just the bugs like it was for BF4, its the whole design choices and the unapologetic monetization of mechanics that have no place in a BF title. DICE and EA created BF2042 to milk BF fans for money, not for the love of the franchise.

      Every Battlefield has launched like crap and took 6-12 months to fix on average . The only difference in 2042 besides moronic bad takes is 2042 was new everything, team, engine , design philosophy, goals whereas the older games were the same game breaking problems every game by same team on the same engine every damn time . 2042 is at the moment fastest game in franchise in terms of fixed to playable for most players before the holiday break Dice took . Bf4 took 5 months to be semi stable

Just face the music 2042 is just not a good game. Of course it’ll become playable eventually that’s not in question. But that’s not the point. Everyone stopped playing it not because of its bugs but because its just not an enjoyable game. The game actually ran pretty good on my Series X but i stopped playing it because its so damn boring.

      They always seem to mess up when CoD drops the ball. I think it was CoD: Ghosts that came out against BF4 and Ghosts got a lukewarm reception and BF4 released in shit shape. Then Battlefield 1 came out against CoD Infinite Warfare and BlOps3 and people were pissed because BF went to WW1 when people wanted modern. Then they did it again with BF V which had a disastrous launch as well when COD dropped BlOps4. Truth told, they really aren’t competitors in the strictest sense. People who love CoD love it and don’t tend to love BF. People who love BF tend not to love CoD or if they do, they love both depending on mood.

      It's because of the ease with which you can find a person that agrees with you, prior to the internet there wasn't the plethora of choice/ voices. Now people seek out the voice that echoes their point of view and develop an intolerance to those that differ in their sentiments. Hopefully it's a phase we're collectively going through as we get to grips with the internet.

    Battlefield used to be ahead of it's time. I turned on battlefield 4 and was blown away with the graphics, destruction, sound and map design. Dice used to have passion in designing games not to make a quick buck, but to compete as the best shooter. It amazes me that I can turn on battlefield 4 today, and still question that it was released 8 years ago. When I turn on 2042 I expected it to be that game that I come back to 8 years from now . Sadly the reason I stopped playing is because we deserve better.

      @vtheman1850 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      People who support the "Unethical Practices" are clearly a very sizeable part of the market, or the trends would have shifted decades ago. I'm not trying to be combative, but you really need to understand that the "passion" avid gamers show for games, the E3 Goers etc... is a very, very minor part of the market.
      The expectation that the average consumer has is simply much different from what you have described here. And while I think you have a point, and that the point comes from a good place, there are simply way more serious causes that most people take up , over retail practices in gaming.
      The fact of the matter is that the vast majority of the Market is Bill Billson a 35 year old father of two, he comes in once or twice a year, buys the COD/BF(whatever) game it is because for him, and the majority of folks gaming isn't a lifestyle, gaming is something he does with the boys for a couple of hours every weekend when he sends the kids off to soccer practice, and his wife off to brunch. And Bills of the world kinda just ... don't really care.

    Very much agree. Reddit and other social media give a horrible viewpoint of the game - much like they do to other real-world events. I agree, the game needs work and there are certain features that I would like to see in 2042 what were present in past BF games, but to call 2042 unplayable and absolutely broken beyond repair because it doesn't currently have a standard scoreboard? I don't get it.
    Your parallel to BF4 was spot-on. That game was a shitshow when it first launched - definitely worse than 2042. Most BF fans now claim BF4 was one of, if not the, best game in the franchise. There's no reason why 2042 can't repeat the same thing. Is it unfortunate that the game launched in the state it did? Of course. Does that mean the game is forever ruined and we should all abandon the franchise? Definitely not.

Nobody is denying that fact. It needs a lot of work and DICE needs to communicate more for what they plan to do for the game and the community down the road. Should we be shaming people trying to make the best of a bad situation? Absolutly not!

    You're a genuinely good person LevelCap, and your mild temperament is one of your greatest strengths. All of your points are 100% valid, and I think you are more than entitled to keep playing. For me, I am very disappointed in the game primarily because of the design direction and the lack of so many features, especially as I pre-ordered the Gold edition because I was so hopelessly optimistic. I am frustrated to the point where I really want EA to hurt financially for taking a game and formula I have enjoyed for well over a decade and turning it into something that looks like a desperate grab at the success of other games. That leads me to want less content created about it because I want it to have as little help as possible. That doesn't mean I condemn you in any way, I want you to do what you love and not be ashamed for it. My displeasure simply would rather see EA experience as much pain from this launch as possible.

I know too many people who hate the game and never played it, but every friend I have that does play it has fun.

    OK, Can someone explain, if you you have to disclosure your relations with EA, how BF2042 got all those 10 out of 10 from various gaming sites and reviewers? Also about "enjoying something other people hate". I played a lot of controversial games, games could be fun even with all issues plaguing them (DayZ, Ark, Tarkov, etc.), but all of them have their audience, diehard one actually. BF2042 is just friggin dead. For AAA game it's just dead. It means game have objectively nothing to offer to players. Also focusing so much on pointing technical issues is pretense - it's not BF2042 main problem. Technical issues can't be deal it. Most of BF2042 actual issues - cannot.

    • @zacharyjackson1829
      @zacharyjackson1829 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      a number of reasons can be the answer. those game reviewers probably have really good rigs and maybe just didnt have technical issues so that aspect of the game didnt bother them. describing something as "dead" these days really means nothing as the term has been so overused to the point anyone using it is just honestly laughable. New World is "dead" but still garners quite a few players but is losing players at a very steady decline so "dying" could be more appropriate and that applies to this game as well.
      this game ,whether you want to believe it or not , is in a somewhat steady playable state but the problems the people have with it are just design choices which have to be corrected with time, time that will inevitably cause many players to slowly stop playing at least until more content is added to the game which looks to be in the summer

    Here's my issue with how LevelCap and others in the community treat Bf2042s problems.
    Yes yes yes, we get it, BF4 and others also had launch issues bla bla bla, that is not the main problem with 2042. The main problem is, that the game in it's core is just a bad clone of a battlefield game. The maps are atrocious and won't be improved upon much. Specialists have no place in the main game and again, that won't change even in two years time, when the game hopefully will be bug free.
    Yes bugs and missing features will be worked on in the months to come, but the underlying bad game design will not change, so please for the love of god, stop using other bad launches as a metric! The issues these games had are not the same! Yes BF4 and BFV had major issues at launch, but in it's core, they were good battlefield games. BF2042 is not!

I’m hoping they don’t abandon 2042 altogether and continue iterating because there still a chance to flip this into a more complete package. That’s said, EA/DICE needs to learn from these mistakes but the unfortunate reality is they won’t until it hits their wallets… Look, gaming is a copycat league and I don’t completely fault them for trying to publish a game that follows current trends and caters to the masses.

    @NiCeDiCe90 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have not as many technical issues either. Some things are ofc buggy like in every BF but that's not the point that makes me dislike the game.
    The Problem for me is honsetly just the fact that EVERY Feature in 2042 has been better in at least one previous BF game (or just got removed entirely). There is not a single thing in the game that is an improvement. Most things are in fact straight up downgrades even from 10+ years old games.
    And if we talk about new features like specialists or 128 players. I was totally open for it but is just doesn't work very well.
    I would never blame someone for having fun with 2042 but the old BF games got polished over the years and still play very well. So there is no reason for me to play 2042 right now.
    I might come back if they fixed the game but at this point I just don't see it.
    In BF4 it was all technical issues at the start and some weird balancing. That are all things that can be fixed and they did even if it took them over a year.
    But the weird design choices they made for 2042 and stuff like these abysmal maps are just not that easy to fix.
    As much as I like the BF series I think the game is dead for me and will remain as my worst BF experience in history.
    All I can do is waiting for the next BF game and hope for it being a good game again....
    Just one more thing:
    I remember some interviews back in the days of BF3 were Devs explained their design choices. Why did we do it like this? Why is the map how it is?
    They analized gameflows, balancing and user experience. They said 100+ players would totally be possible with Frostbite 2 but they kept the 64 as max players because it was just not fun with too many people on the battlefield. In fact in their studies they learned the sweet spot was around 40 players for the best gameplay experience. That might be a reason why rush is so god damn awesome in BC2. Back in the days they thought about maps, modes, player count and everything else until it was the most fun.
    It would be really interesting to know why they made these design choices in 2042. What were they thinking?
