The only downside to break through 128 was at the time when it was available to play, the maps were so vastly open. Battlefield maps need to have a multitude of close quarters combat areas to keep the game flow good. Back when it was available to play at first breakthrough 128 on manifest with absolutely amazing because the whole entire run was close quarters combat areas but on other maps it wouldn't work as well but I don't care what anybody says break through 128 is the best
I literally just tried BF2042 for the first time this week, and this breakthrough mode was my very first match. It was insane and chaotic... in a good way
2:42 the invisible soldier bug is back. I've experienced this a bunch of times over the last couple days. Sometimes they even show up on on the mini map, so I run over to the location but there's no one there, no dead bodies nothing.
@@MagikSpellzz Pretty sure it has to do with players disconnecting and the server still reporting the player data and position even though they aren't there anymore. Eventually the server polls them out.
What my fellow Dice devs need to understand as that we CRAVE the chaos. 128 breakthrough was the best game mode for me personally, the firefights are absolutely nuts. One of the few game modes that I feel that forces players to understand firefights/map rotation and being punished for not disengaging or pushing when needed to. I really hope we get dedicated servers again, I’d play it 24/7.
The chaos of MW2's Shipment, but with vehicles for added flavour. I think it's perfectly acceptable once in a while, but sparingly... I prefer my brain not to be blended.
I love shipment - been playing on the naughty list - so much fun and chaos. But I would love that feeling in a BF title, and this looks like it could be it. I agree though that my brain can get blended by shipment, and some days I dont do a single round on it. And I am not a CoD fanboy but the 2019 MW introduced me, and MW2 shows it off in an a new and amazing way.
It definitely is absolute chaos, but that is what's fun about it 🙂. I love 128 player Breakthrough and it seems that you liked it too. Entertaining video, as always!
As someone who was really bummed when they took 128 breakthrough out; I am super glad that this event brought it back. Didn't even know till this video but now I gotta get back in there.
Is no one going to notice the l33t video length? The mad lad that absolutely loves the easter eggs in almost any game out there, uploads a video with length 13:37, there has to be something we are missing here....XD
128 player Breakthrough was great, it's just that it was taken out before the game could properly handle it with all the bugs and glitches. It's a more modern take of a beach landing on all maps, minus a ton of vehicles for cover.
the problem with it back in the day was not only the maps that were just plains with no cover, but also the amount of helis that were spamming down on infantry, especially the nightbirds that were in the trasnport category, not that problem doesn't exist anymore, and even with those things, it was still my favorite gamemode
Smoke grenades are your best friend in this mode aswell as well as a decent team in a tank . Best weapons are either sub machine guys or sniper rifles. Reminds me of Battlefield 4 . Great game .
I love 128 player breakthrough when the map is suitable. Nordvik is the best map in the game and honestly might end up being one of the best in the franchise. I love it
They took it out when the game engine wasn’t performing. This is a test to see if it’s stable enough for long term availability. It’s the best mode as it shows off the next gen possibility with all the active action on screen. No other game does this. Only in battlefield. Now if they could only build a proper event driven 128 mode.
I can tell you that watching it was extremely entertaining. It was so satisfying seeing you mowing down 4 or 5 enemies at a time between getting revived and doing it again lol. It made me instantly want to go play and try it. I have to say, it’s rather fun. Would recommend. Had to come back after I played a couple matches to comment. I haven’t had this much fun on battlefield 2042 yet. So I think they are at least on the right track with this one move.
Awesome video Jack, yet again. Thanks for the HQ content. I'm having a blast on this mode. Most attacking rounds are crazy fun. Side note: your community urgently needs some star citizen content 🎆
Thank god they added this mode back now ima go back to this great game. It was my fav mode before they took it out. The chaos is amazing and its actually not hard to win with the right teamwork or lose without. I never understood why we went backwards in gaming. More people not less
When BF 2042 released 128 player Breakthrough was my number one game mode.I was one of the few (apparently) that protested the removal of this mode. Unfortunately several high profile youtube content providers posted extremely critical videos with regards to this mode.
That's honestly what I loved in Battlefield, I discovered BF with BFV and I still remember the breakthrough games on Operation Mercury, Aerodrome or Operation Metro, with some insanely chaotic capture points. This is what I loved the most, and I'm glad it's returning to BF2042. It will not bring me back to the game because I don't own it but it's good to know that at least they are going away from the empty gameplay that was due to oversized map and focusing more on chaotic infantry clusters.
Breakthrough Chaos was.. absolute chaos.. but it worked. It was "Battlefield". I think the original gamemode should have stayed, people just needed to open their minds more. But it is what it is. Glad we got to experience this for this week at least. All the games I played the points were rapidly changing hands. Was fantastic.
I feel like the map layout is way too linear for that many players but it's sick to watch! In a medieval-themed game, this map design and amount of players would be cool because you could have cinematic moments where lines of opposing teams clash
I wonder if that 02:44 was someone that freezed. It happens to me occasionally in the beginning of matches, and for 15 seconds you can't do anything. But I'm not sure if you are bulletproof under those freezes, but I have served a few out in the open when I knew there was enemy around me, so it might be the case.
You mean they added a gamemode that is purely a battlefield experience which everyone wanted since the release of the game and people complain that it is not what they wanted? Don't have kids.
This mode seems better with jack !! love your videos. also many changes in this mode not only the player count : - faster vehicules spawn - faster movement (I think infantry only) - lighter throwable (mean you can throw throwables too far) - faster bullet speed (maybe - not sure).
I hate it. It's zerg vs zerg. It feels like Metro on steroids (a map I've grown to hate), just a braindead meatgrinder with very little opportunity to effectively flank or play inteligently. And I have yet to be in a game where the attackers won.
I dislike meat grinders. I like some balance of mental strategy and diverse skill requirements. I don't want more lockers, metro, or any other mindless spam.
The way forward for 128 Player Breakthrough is: Double the objective from 2 to 4 per sector and minimum 3 per sector. Distance between objective need to be quite some distance and cannot be clustered too close. Within the sector, instead of having to capture all objective, the attacker have to capture at least 2 to move forward. This allows the separation of player to cover all objective and allow some great battle line with attacker having to plan which 2 objective to be captured and the defender have to split their force to defend all objective.
i think it is a great mode, it really does feel hellish like OP Locker or OP Clusterfuck (sorry, Metro). I love going in with the m16 or the m60 and mow ppl down. On the other hand, adding the game to game pass (The only reason that im playing it other than being a bf fan). It had been a cuestionable experience up until they added a new patch back in early december. Then i was not too sure about the game modes up until they released this. Gorgeous gameplay jack
been loving the battlefield vids recently jack! i really didn't like how this game looked at first but i picked it up on the steam sale and can't quit playing
jack frags, thank you for always making new battlefield content i found you at release of bf4 and been a big fan since i always like to know that if i click on one of your vids i’ll always be met with the same charismatic jack
Go to 3:30 and imagine this; Map time in the evening / sunset Darker, grimmer graphics, more grey No HUD Hardcore damage Same sort of weapons from BF3 Running speed a tat lower More recoil on weapons And there we have it - the BF experience we all need
LMFAO!!!!! I thought the exact same thing about the McKay skin! JESUS!!!!!! He's been on candles so I guess I should be respectful! And the flying squirrels!!!!! I thought that when this game launched! That's got to be the most annoying character though, the way they can flank you. I need to get better at shooting them out of the sky. Great content, as usual, Sir Frags. Please do more 2042 content!
this, at least give multiple options at the start screen, let the people decide if they want to play it or not (yes I know you can do it in portal but it doesnt get as many players)
I was surprised how well I did playing this gamemode. I thought the chaos would overwhelm me, but I've had a very positive K/D almost every round. I was running M5A3 with close combat ammo. Good fun.
As for the game mode, i think it's a sweet option to have and I've had plenty of great and hilarious BF moment action in breakthrough 128. They should keep it in game

"I'm inside someone there" -Jackfrags 2023
I absolutely love this game mode on this map... had a grand time
“I am inside someone..”-Jackfrags, 2023.
Ah a controversial slug fest, sounds fantastic
The way forward for 128 Player Breakthrough is:
Double the objective from 2 to 4 per sector and minimum 3 per sector.
Distance between objective need to be quite some distance and cannot be clustered too close.
Within the sector, instead of having to capture all objective, the attacker have to capture at least 2 to move forward. This allows the separation of player to cover all objective and allow some great battle line with attacker having to plan which 2 objective to be captured and the defender have to split their force to defend all objective.
This is probably the most visually overwhelming BF video I've ever seen. The absolute CHAOS
