I honestly love the battlepass, it offers so much just for a small price and skins are sexy, sooooo i don't mind. It was the thing, that kept me playing it everyday.😁Also agree with adding new guns, we need at least one new pistol and like two assault rifles. I would really be happy for the return of M4 or I dunno maybe MP5 which is submachine gun, but still. But well then weapon balance is another thing to do. And speaking of new maps, I think one would be enough if it will be just as good as Exposure. We don't need like 5 new bad maps in a row like on BF2042 launch.
I hope season two brings the following. - Squad Management system - Persistent servers - Server browser - All modern Portal content to AoW - More maps, weapons, gadgets, and vehicles. edit: The only thing that's coming from this list is 3 new weapons and 1 new map........ come on DICE at least add a Squad Management system :/
@@meshal7924 spec is fine, just add a new slot for gadget and bring class system to those and oc a lot of new weapons unless you want only 3 or 4 guns to choose from within a class
Mate they’re gonna do the bare minimum to appease the people who bought the special edition and then they’re gonna drop this game like a sack of bricks.
I appreciate the class implementation, map overhauls, and bringing in Portal guns. My main gripe with the game has been the class system being absent, and also the severe lack of weaponry and maps.
bro you guys and your classes; honestly not that big of a deal much better with specialist YOU CAN PICK ANY GUN, ANY GADGET WITH EVERY SPECIALIST why would you want to change or limit those options because of a class?! bro is just good at whining
Be smarter just to make a AOW with all the classes from portal as well...I'd love to have claymore from Battlefield 3 and some guns from Bad Company 2😁
@@dmytroliubych1422 Don't see why not. I'd certainly enjoy using an m1 garand or a thompson in AOW. It adds something like 50 weapon options. My gripe about it is they are dripfeeding them instead of coming up with challenges for all the portal weapons and implementing them as soon as possible. My guess is the real problem there is a modelling issue. BF3 and BC2 weapons aren't modelled with 2042 attachments. They will probably also be coming in with new attachments (Like the BSV coming in with a new scope) that needs to be modeled on all the other weapons. It would make all the work involved much harder, as well as figuring out if they are going to come with all portal attachments unlocked or if the portal attachments will come later.
EA: We Want to hear more from you: Why you didn't hear our sounds since the day one and take our suggests even before release this game. It's too late EA, I can't play this game anymore. you haven't even optimize this game on PCs and it's still laggy!
I like how with Orbital the map actually has crates and destroyed buildings and tanks, now it actually feels like a real battlefield, that should be done with the other maps, make them feel like a real battlefield not just by putting military stuff all over but by also having some destroyed things all over the map so it looks and feels more like a battlefield and less like a rapture
Guys thank you for tasting our Beta for a year, it’s time for more testing, we need your feed back, game is still in development look forward to a full game finally realizing in September 2042
I feel ya man, grenades that don’t harm bushes let alone a Sheetrock wall is really bogus. No mentions about gameplay quality other than it includes some fixes. Like floating dead bodies and 1 vs 2 tanks, two personnel vehicles, 1 air transport and attack chopper vehicles is really unfair and unbalanced regardless of what cover they add the only destruction will be the sand bags.
Look, destruction ain’t happening at this point. Destruction is a HUGE developmental undertaking that would take months and months of reworking and optimization to get working decently. It’s way too late for something like that.
Massive, massive BF fan here. Been playing since BF2. This is the only one that I dropped like a hot potato (and I thought BFV had issues, I now have a new appreciation for that game's launch). These updates are admirable, and their content is truly telling of what was so wrong with this game, but I'll be back to the series when there aren't specialists in BF, and when there's actual destruction. So hopefully whatever the next BF game is. Just can't believe how far off the mark 2042 has been. I'm sorry to be so negative. As a series I've loved above all others, and my primary multiplayer go to for me and my friends, it's pretty heart breaking after all these years. Especially with such a great setting. Completely wasted. My heart goes out to the talented people stuck having to fix this.
Totally agree this this, I remember the back to karkland map pack that dropped it was perfect, they need to tone down the massive multiplayer experience and focus on the maps tight gritty feel, in an APV driving down a Tehran street not knowing in someone is gonna pop out with an RPG or not was such good gameplay, bf3 was my favourite by far
Mine was since BF3. And yes, I am not sure whose direction the team had to follow for BF2042, a great potential hit, but instead of adding “new” contents, it’s more of patching it up.
You're comment hit home man, I'm in the same boat. However I am being tempted to finally pick 2042 up and give it a chance. These updates do seem to be in the right direction,however we need a TRUE class.system not specialist divided.
I have to also agree. They dropped the ball with this title.. what they should do is release a 5-hour trial to see if they could get ppl to try the new season before they buy the full game. They could see a big wave of ppl download the trail. And! maybe even buy the game if it's a step in the right direction.
I dont have nothing more to add jajaja. Im complete agree with you, now im in battlefield 4 and 1 and there servers are full of people. It means a lot😅
Squad is core to BF because it promotes teamwork but also squad identity to help players identify between allie and foe, like in previous BF it was soldier's country identity. It also sets the mood to fight for a purpose, like US vs RUS, RUS vs CHN, CHN vs US. Specialists make BF an individual fight about mercenaries
Thats the thing about the old classes system. It was a well balanced version of rock-paper-scissors. It was well polished and worked wonderfully for encouraging squad dynamics... This specialist system was complete unbalanced rubbish that encouraged lone wolf gameplay.
@@Klaaism Too much cover and character/ map rework, not enough guns and its 2 seasons in and showing “content” thats wont be here till season 3 as if you want the fanbase to show you pity. Premium DLC from previous battlefields gave us more content then this; PREMIUM: 10 Weapons, 6 Gadgets, 4 new maps, New vehicles. It is clear and its time to accept that this is not the same Dice team we’ve all known and love, but a new dev team over at Dice that was hired who have no idea what Battlefield is and only know how to make hero shooters and live service games and are there just to make money. DICE and Battlefield are dead. THE END
Honestly, because they said many times they won’t get rid of specialists, they should at least try to make the specialists have a US, Russian and China version of those specialist. So that we can identify much easier and also if they restrict the type of guns and gadgets they can have it would be much better
@@Klaaism specialists where designed for hazard zone, afterwards they added the other bf stuff where it doesnt work, they should copy the battlefront system for all out warfare etc
Well NoPats are actually mercenaries. They are not citizens of any country hence Non-Patriated designation. It’s still weird to see “clones” on both teams.
Yeah, that was what I thinked too, specialist are a good idea, but not instead of the class system, merging them both are a good way, hoping that like gadget, there will be some category for weapon too for each class, like no more Mackay using sniper, or some thing like that, each class have access to their own category of weapon+ the weapon available for everyone (like we had in previous game) Using every weapon and gadget with every character to make the stuff you want is a good idea on the paper, but in fact, that remove mostly the need to play in team, what it make battlefield
@@tomviron6338 I disagree that it removed the need for teamplay. Solo players don't win games in 32vs32. The teamplay complaints are still mostly from the beta, where there was literally no way to communicate in any way except firing your gun in morse code or drawing on walls. Now we have squad VOIP, team and squad chat, the commorose and squad orders, as well as the game informing you who has ammo when you call for ammo and who has health when your HP is low. A team or squad working together will always perform better than when they work alone. Or maybe it's just because I pretty much only play breakthrough and so backcapping individuals have almost no impact.
It would increase the importance of teamwork for sure. Not having any restrictions results in funny interactions like Angel being able to have a launcher in his gadget slot and also give himself an infinite supply of launcher ammo with his own loadout crate, rather than needing teammates to help refill that ammo.
Hmm, I'm interested in the Vault Weapon concept. If you ask me, the setting's use of stateless mercenaries who have to scrounge to survive fits the use of old equipment very well. Even weapons dating back to WW2 could easily see use in the field, as they do in, say, Syria and Ukraine at present. I want to be able to flex on some fancy operator by popping him with a Lee-Enfield.
I don't remember for sure but back when I played at launch I remember something about the Lee being massively off. Like the wrong number of rounds in the mag or something like that but I can't remember I want BFV level Lee in 2042. That'd bring me back
Credit where credit's due, everything in this is positive and a step in the right direction. How they got it so wrong in the first place blows my mind, but let's just hope they continue to listen to our feedback and make it into the game that we all wanted.
Honestly, I think it's because they ignored the backlash and player opinions for so long. They had the mindset "we're right, the player base is wrong" and I think that all changed once the player count dropped drastically.
With only 4 seasons I kinda still think this game is dead. But with the new management at Dice and EA and with them asking all sorts of questions about the next BF I have hope for BF6
Imagine if they actually delayed the game for one year, and somehow managed to implement the map changes they got from current feedback (which if they had decent playtesters or more experienced map designers in the first place would have identified earlier problems and shifted fixes to more-or-less what we're seeing here), then the hypothetical launch later this year would have seen a much better reception.
Finally! What I have been waiting for since launch, a revision of the specialists and going back to the class system. It would be a nice little addition if they added a "default" skin for each class, in case you dont want to look and play like any of the specialists and just want to be a "random soldier" on the BF. That would be cool.
They need a specialist “US MARINE” and “RUSSIAN GROUND FORCE” in each class with unique abilities like all other specialist. That way they can actually still have value in playing them.
@@mcombuster That wouldn't be balanced though because of their dumb unique abilities. One team being able to use riot shields while the other can't would be terrible, same with the wall hacks, flying squirrel, and pretty much all of them.
Showing a Dice employee playing something else at his workplace but Battlefield at 5:40 while saying these words seems a little bit wry, doesn't it? "Our teams are continuing to work on season 3 and beyond and it's really important to us that we can continue to keep the community playing together in new and exciting ways."
I appreciate you actually listening and implementing feedback. Here are some additional thoughts: - Finally! classes! I hope this will be a perfect combination between old and new systems. - The new gritty looks of the specialists does match the game more, but it seems unnecessary considering how much you just cover their looks with helmets and masks. - Instead of vault weapons, I would actually very much prefer brand new 2042 weapons - Destructible assets are CRUCIAL. It initially allows cover for infantry but it also needs to allow vehicles to smash through that cover. We need less unbreakable cement barricades and shipping containers. - The new Renewal and Orbital looks amazing and I can't wait to play them. - Lastly, I think you could really create two or three different versions of the smaller 64 player conquest maps using different sections of out of the Large 128 player conquest maps. Please
This is actually really good constructive criticism, but to me the main issue is still the server browser, persistent official servers, proper vehicle balance and new maps.
were getting new guns we get 2 every season so we will have a total of 8 NEW weapons but the fact that theyre offering to put in the vault wepons is a huuuuuge step forward. the constant whining about needing more weapons is getting addressed yet seems like people still arent happy i like youre idea of 2-3 variations for 64 player maps that would be nice and just have them all on random gernation so you never know what youre getting
@@ImTheOGslowski That is a good point. I think just the initial number of base game weapons was underwhelming for me. But yes, moving forward with new weapons every season will eventually fill in the gaps. Like in BF1 after the additional DLCs basically doubled the amount of weapons in the game. However, I still think that the vault weapons should stay in portal, but that's just my opinion. and thank you! It would add a lot of variety with minimal effort on their part to split them up.
Classes are a key function to the Battlefield series. It doesn't make sense for a sniper to have a stinger missile or AT rocket, or for a support soldier to have a sniper rifle. Glad they're coming back, and please keep them in future games.
This is a huge step in the right direction. Please continue to bring back the class system. Limit what weapons each class can use again so people actually pick a role they might play. And continue to keep bringing in weapons and maps. Honestly bf2042-ized classic maps, similar to adding the portal weapons, would be a great way to quickly add in new maps for the community.
@@Daniel-ty2ke this Game basically only Had one year of development since it Took over a year to Update the Frostbite engine and for the devs to get used to it
If they bother with one... After all, if everyone says they won't buy the last 2 games of your series, why not invest time and money into something new?
I am not so sure that they will give up on the specialists. Classes which are only used to group the specialists up, are of little use. Weapons have to be limited to certain classes again like in provious Battlefield. This brings back some sense into the classes. The way they plan to do it now, it is still possible to be an antitank with a sniper rifle. Were ist the improvement? And if we accepted this here, it sure as hell will also be in the next BF (and sure as hell I will also not buy it)
@@celsi5563 And what exactly is the problem with that? Literally what is the problem of having a rocket launcher and a sniper rifle? How is that worse than having a rocket launcher and a DMR, an available combination in bf4? If you wanted to say ammo and sniper rifle, I can see you potentially having a point. But the classes will probably mean that stops being possible, at least with the mobility specialists that most benefit from the combination. On the other hand, SOFLAM and an smg? Do you have an issue with that combination? Assault rifle and ammo? You might have a point if all the portal weapons were in AOW, but there's a whole 2 shotguns, 4 DMRs, 3 sniper rifles, 2 LMGs etc. There's simply not enough tools for people right now to immediately go back to bf4 classes. And if you want classes as soon as possible, there won't be when classes are implemented.
I'm glad it seems like you've finally listened to the feedback we gave you in the beta. I'll definitely give the game another shot after these specialist changes go into effect and you run another free weekend. I'm not spending a dime on this game until it's right.
The Beta was 10 months ago. They don't get praise for taking almost a year to listen. I'm not buying another game unless I see gameplay of it first (day one gameplay, not a beta that's an "old version of the game").
@@jamesbezon510 yes i dindt liked this game at all from the start! only liked portal a littlebit but got bored fast. never had this before! im a battlefield player from the start 1942
We're getting the content of a single DLC spread out over a year while they sell season passes for each quarter of that single DLC. Absolute rip off, exacerbated by the fact the game is still a buggy, boring, mess.
I really enjoy the changes to the maps as well as merging specialists with the original class-based system. Shame these things weren't there at launch, but it is nice to see that you are taking some of these things to heart and not just bashing the community for sharing their opinions like you have previously done.
Battlefield, please don't forget the immersion of the starting fights from Battlefield 1 & 5. Dive into the immersion during the fights, and re-working the soundtrack.
If there's one thing that would bring me back to this game(Alongside plenty of content) it would be an option to select a generic soldier instead of a specialist. I've always felt more attached to the faceless soldiers of the franchise, whether it's the Chinese Engineer with his iconic gas mask from Battlefield 4 or the caped snipers of the American and Italian team from Battlefield 1. To have distinct class based soldiers for both countries would be awesome. If that won't happen, I at least want to see a return to "Character silhouettes". Say, a large ammo-filled backpack for the Support class, a more slender Engineer with a rocket on their back, Medic with a doctor bag on their hip and perhaps a scout with a cape. Something like this would make it more easy to identify your team and enemy's classes and react accordingly.
Couldn't agree more. Specialists completely ruin the immersion. They tried to hard to incorporate elements of a hero shooter that no Battlefield fan wants, and by design, that fundamentally changed the way the games core mechanics functioned. Worst decision ever.
I think a possible rework that uses a point system like in Battlefront 2 might work really well, instead of treating specialists as the normal soldiers, they could then become well, specialists, characters you get to play as by doing well
I agree with you friend I used to love them generic default characters and NPC from the story mode like 007 golden eye N64 oh yeah that's what made it memorable
@@swappinqentertainment Battlefield 5 was alright at launch, and became great over time. It's kind of a blend between BF4's gunplay, Battlefield 1's atmosphere and Battlefield Hardline's variety of gadgets. Worth buying when it's on sale.
The AI already plays as the class designed Marines & Russian soldiers; So, with the class system returning, PLEASE add the option to play as the standard infantry in each class role, just like the old games.
@@riezki4086 I don't think everyone would like that as much because it doesn't let the whole squad tailor the experience to their preference. It's better to refrain from limiting options as much as possible.
The main gripe about specialists is that there is nothing setting enemies apart from teammates. If they pick the same specialist they look exactly like you. You instead have to wait for the red dot to pop up or just waste ammo spraying into a body that might be an enemy. If you guys give different looks to the factions and make specialist abilities a class equipable instead of locked to a set character you would have a great start for a battlefield game. This is a step in the right direction but it feels like you guys have forgotten the formula for battlefield. I will not be returning until specialists are removed entirely.
Can you fix the SFAR-M GL assault rifle? It keeps freezing up when your switching from granade launcher to bullets. It's been doing it for over a month.
I never really liked “assault” as a non-medic class. It feels like it’s designed as a very selfish class that caters to players who focus solely on getting kills for themselves. Mackay, Sundance, and (arguably) Dozer don’t really provide anything for their teammates, and encourage a “lone wolf” playstyle instead of working together as a team. The Med Pen and Armor Plate gadgets solely benefit the user, offering no value to the team. I feel like BF4 did classes best (Assault kept teammates alive, engineer took out enemy vehicles, support kept teammates fully stocked, and recon spotted enemies and allowed teammates to respawn on the frontlines). Also, specialists really need to look different on opposing sides. Seeing 50 clones of the same character that all look exactly the same, some on your side, and some on the other, can be very confusing in combat and further degrades the feeling of immersion from past Battlefield titles. Some more things that the game needs: -Server Browser -Much more weapons and maps in AOW -An animated score counter that totals up points after a play (like in previous battlefield titles) -Greatly improved destruction & levolution (which both seem nonexistent in this game) -Naval vehicles
The way i see the map changes is the Season 0 maps were when the conflict was really starting. And now with all the changes its the natural evolution of the visual storytelling. The conflict has been going for a while and now the maps are starting to represent that.
I just bought the game, and it's very good and interesting, hopefully always fix bugs because I feel bugs, and always market this game so people are interested and busy playing it, I really like it
Love the new additions and good to see feedback is being listened too. We just need more Maps as one per season is a bit lacking in terms of content. I remember the days of battlefield 3 where we got 4 maps per quarter on the season pass
Exactly. Battlefield 4 they gave us 4-5 maps every season. This 2 new maps a year is trash considering they took story mode away. Took away traditional game modes(portal is a big miss overall so the modes in it don't count to me). Just missing so much.
@@JCDenton0451 I had battlefield premium just like I have the best version of this current game. For the money this is less than half the game I got in the past.
@@JCDenton0451 yes the pass cost a bit more however the base price for 2042 is more expensive and 2 maps for 1 year is awful compared to over 12 for battlefield 3/4
Please can you fix the problem where every time I get out of a vehicle I’m unable to aim, I’ve given up spawning into vehicles because when I get out I can’t aim my weapons.
So how are we going to be able to diegetically distinguish a friendly specialist from an enemy specialist? Why can't the specialist characters be asymmetrical to either faction?
I like that they are putting specialists into the more traditional fields that we all love! Was wondering if they could maybe add faction specific uniforms for each of the specialists? I think it would be a nice touch.
If the do faction specific uniforms it defeats the mercenary setting they are going for. It's the reason we're called no pats, because we aren't fighting for any nation out of loyalty but instead for money.... speaking of money they also wouldn't be able to sell outfits if they do that
Since day one, I've been thinking they should double the amount of specialist, if they want to keep the whole specialist thing going(monetization), and just make them faction specific. For example, have macay be on the us team and create a new character with a unique look and with macays tools. Keep boris as a russian faction character and create a new character... and so on.
@@MrUser999999 if they made specialists faction specific it again decent the idea of them being mercenaries which is the whole point hence them being no pats
Developers: We will again give you 1 map, 1 specialist, 2 weapons, 2 tanks. BF Community: Or maybe you will make a large-scale update in honor of the 20th anniversary of Battlefield? 2 cards and several cards from the classic BF for Portal? Developers: You demand a lot. Be glad that we didn't stop the support, ignoramuses!
@hussain bohos this time, bf is finally listening on what we want in battlefield game or the next one. Something I really want is just having atmosphere like bf1, body mechanics from bfV and destruction from bf3
Okay this a very good improvement! Excited to have a more cohesive gameplay experience with the added classes system. I wish all the portal guns could be just dropped in straight away but making them unlockables is also good. Just don't drip feed it please. 👍

I suggest to wait with celebrating until we really see how classes will be implemented without getting rid of the specialists. I expect some half measure to make us shut up instead of a real improvement. I am pretty sure that they will not restrict the weapons to certain classes which leads the concept of classes ad absurdum by 50% already.
@@celsi5563 Weapon restrictions make battlefield boring but I wouldn't mind certain limited restrictions and to be honest most of the specialists gadgets are what battlefield was missing
@@landturtle7470 Sorry, I disagree. Missing weapon restrictions make the game less demanding. You do not have to chose between anti-tank equipment and your favorite sniper rifle - you can have both. That is easy, convenient = boring to me. I play to be challenged, not to go the easy way (no offence intended)
Wow... Orbital actually looks great! I already liked it more than the other maps tbh, but with that update it actually looks genuinely good and up to a far higher quality. Still iffy on Renewal's rework, but eh. Not every map in old BF games was good either lol. Also, class system is a much-welcome addition, thank you for actually listening
So does this mean that engineers will be able to have the anti air rocket just to them sleves and no other class gets them or all classes are still get all types of rockets
Didn't expect that orbital got a rework in season 2. The class system is finally coming back. This is a W for the battlefield. Looking forward to getting my hands on it :)
Orbital rework looks fantastic! Especially the main stretch between the rocket building and the rocket itself. Looks like a battle happened, and this is the final push now.
@@craiglewis8272 see I’m very simple to please. I paid $60, I put in more than 60 hours so I’ve DefinTely gotten my moneys worth. Everything else we get for free is just a bonus in my eyes.
Things that we want to see: more new maps and guns Things that probably will happened: BF2042 turns to be F2P and only few maps rework and remodelling guns from old BF series
if they make it F2P i and probably a lot of other people will never buy another battlefield game ever again. always preordered every battlefield and was pretty satisfied with it. but if they let u preorder this pile of garbage and then make it f2p they will lose all their credibility
Disappointing to see that we won't be getting a solution for enemies being clones of our team. You could have just split the specialists into the two teams and make their gadgets shared.
Imo they should just make everyone else look like default soldiers so you aren’t seeing 3 mckays running about. It’s immersion killing and just looks ridiculous.
Faction based specialist you mean? You're right, they could have the same or equivalent gadgets to their opposition counter parts; just different character skin. I doubt it'd be all that hard to pull off.
Do you not realize every battlefield class has always been identical visually to their respective classes, Assault class dominated BF3 and BF4 but you didn't hear anyone complaining about clones then.
Heres an idea for your specialist / class system setup: Keep the class system as is but have the "no pats" specialists on one side and then the "dark market" specialists grouped on another side so the specialists and class system gets setup properly ... that way there isnt the same specialists on the same sides ... it would make more sense
The games in a way better state than when I first picked it up last year. Exposure is a great map. I’m really wanting more maps and weapons. Season two looks like I will jump back in.
This looks like a super solid update, that class system makes so much more sense than before, I think if they did that from the start it would’ve been less polarizing. I’m actually excited for this!
Wow. At this pace, in 2 years from now, it might almost feel like a Battlefield game. Specialists in the community isn't "polarizing," It's overwhelmingly despised. It's put players in Hardline. It can barely keep up with a nearly 9 year old entry.
We want more maps from All-Out-Warfare & Portal instead of just one map every season. We want classes back & make AI specialists playable. We want more weapons & vehicles rather than two. And we want more games, classes, maps, weapons & vehicles from Portal as well. DICE, come on. We do not want another disappointment for 2042 again. We want a good Battlefield that we want.
Hopefully they will give each specialist permanent gadget according to their class, for example engineer specialists have repair tools, while recons have motion sensor or something.
5:24 We need more behind the scene things . Like true devlogs on what your are working on guys , even on the next battlefield game (core mechanics , destruction etc...)
I like that the maps look as if they’ve had action in them that we’ve been apart of and that’s shaped what they will look like going forward, good stuff
can we please fix the gun progression bug, I have guns that are almost all the way "upgraded" but they are still grayed out and have to use them bone stock.
This is definitely a step in the right direction. But we could still need some more vehicle balance, like the stealth heli, it’s basically unkillable while staying in stealth mode and having flares. And jets need more customisations.
there is one point what every map is missing: dirt! everything looks so clean. no debris no dust no rubble, just one single plastic bag flying around here and there. every paintboll field looks more like a warzone than the bf 2042 maps. you put some random cover here and there in kaleidoscope but it dont makes this map look like a warzone. when do we get a server browser in all out warfare???? im tired of this matchmaking that brings the same 3 maps over and over again. whats wrong with joining one server and playing a map rotation without leaving the server? and why i have to change my voice chat options every time when i joining a server from party to squad? why are no squad options in general? we are all aduld people that can do our own dessisions like how we set our sound options or in whitch squad to join.
Awesome update wish it was like this at launch but the new devs/management are killing it by making these changes and new content reworks. Hazard zone should be worked on and should go free to play
Most of this is certainly a positive move, which is great and i cant wait to experience it. But i got 2 issues, first is, there was no a single mention of improving game performance, as that is a major issue even for people with mid end pc's. Second is, although cluttering maps with cover is good for infantry, there really needs to be more thought put into it than just copy pasting the same sandbag over and over 20 times and calling it a day, it feels stale and lazy imo.
im running a pc with mid end specs and at launch the game was unplayable for me .. almost a year later now ,has it improved on that matter ? i don't own the game i only tried it at beta launch and when it was free for a weekend.. but i got some ideas of buying the game and i dont want to regret it
As negative as the attitude of fans toward 2042 has been, you can't lie, this update is truly a step in the right direction. I'm honestly proud of them for continuing to work to improve the game rather than just abandoning it as I feared. I'm excited for the future of the game and to see all the upcoming improvements.
the gaming community has become so toxic. most of the people hating on battlefield still probably havent even played it since launch and are scared to even form a new opinion as it would differ from the general populous
They LEGALLY have to uphold at least 4 season drops as per their Preorder promises. Otherwise they would loose all sales via lawsuit. None of this is impressive given the amount of time they've had. They're giving us the bare minimum to avoid being sued.
@@silvershadow001 remember when we used to get these things day 1 right off the disk? When the $60 was well worth it?

We don't need more cosmetics or skins, we need more GUNS and MAPS
DICE: We hear what you're saying and the answer is NO

And 2042 classes
I honestly love the battlepass, it offers so much just for a small price and skins are sexy, sooooo i don't mind. It was the thing, that kept me playing it everyday.😁Also agree with adding new guns, we need at least one new pistol and like two assault rifles. I would really be happy for the return of M4 or I dunno maybe MP5 which is submachine gun, but still. But well then weapon balance is another thing to do. And speaking of new maps, I think one would be enough if it will be just as good as Exposure. We don't need like 5 new bad maps in a row like on BF2042 launch.

Too bad you are getting the Halloween skins early only 19.99
I hope season two brings the following.
- Squad Management system
- Persistent servers
- Server browser
- All modern Portal content to AoW
- More maps, weapons, gadgets, and vehicles.
edit: The only thing that's coming from this list is 3 new weapons and 1 new map........ come on DICE at least add a Squad Management system :/
+ bringing back the old classes system and removing specialists
@@meshal7924 spec is fine, just add a new slot for gadget and bring class system to those
and oc a lot of new weapons unless you want only 3 or 4 guns to choose from within a class

@@CountJoe1 sack of bricks? more like discharge in a toilet. I m only fantasying. I know the end of this tale
I appreciate the class implementation, map overhauls, and bringing in Portal guns. My main gripe with the game has been the class system being absent, and also the severe lack of weaponry and maps.
I can't say bringing in late 1990s-early 2000s weapons into 2042 is a fix to the problem
bro you guys and your classes; honestly not that big of a deal
much better with specialist
YOU CAN PICK ANY GUN, ANY GADGET WITH EVERY SPECIALIST
why would you want to change or limit those options because of a class?!
bro is just good at whining
Be smarter just to make a AOW with all the classes from portal as well...I'd love to have claymore from Battlefield 3 and some guns from Bad Company 2😁
@@dmytroliubych1422 Don't see why not. I'd certainly enjoy using an m1 garand or a thompson in AOW. It adds something like 50 weapon options. My gripe about it is they are dripfeeding them instead of coming up with challenges for all the portal weapons and implementing them as soon as possible. My guess is the real problem there is a modelling issue. BF3 and BC2 weapons aren't modelled with 2042 attachments. They will probably also be coming in with new attachments (Like the BSV coming in with a new scope) that needs to be modeled on all the other weapons. It would make all the work involved much harder, as well as figuring out if they are going to come with all portal attachments unlocked or if the portal attachments will come later.

@@curtis6861 opinion of the year right here... get a grip
5:51 That's probably the whole BF2042 Dev-Team lmao
Massive, massive BF fan here. Been playing since BF2. This is the only one that I dropped like a hot potato (and I thought BFV had issues, I now have a new appreciation for that game's launch). These updates are admirable, and their content is truly telling of what was so wrong with this game, but I'll be back to the series when there aren't specialists in BF, and when there's actual destruction. So hopefully whatever the next BF game is.
Just can't believe how far off the mark 2042 has been. I'm sorry to be so negative. As a series I've loved above all others, and my primary multiplayer go to for me and my friends, it's pretty heart breaking after all these years. Especially with such a great setting. Completely wasted. My heart goes out to the talented people stuck having to fix this.
Totally agree this this, I remember the back to karkland map pack that dropped it was perfect, they need to tone down the massive multiplayer experience and focus on the maps tight gritty feel, in an APV driving down a Tehran street not knowing in someone is gonna pop out with an RPG or not was such good gameplay, bf3 was my favourite by far
Mine was since BF3. And yes, I am not sure whose direction the team had to follow for BF2042, a great potential hit, but instead of adding “new” contents, it’s more of patching it up.
You're comment hit home man, I'm in the same boat. However I am being tempted to finally pick 2042 up and give it a chance. These updates do seem to be in the right direction,however we need a TRUE class.system not specialist divided.
I have to also agree. They dropped the ball with this title.. what they should do is release a 5-hour trial to see if they could get ppl to try the new season before they buy the full game. They could see a big wave of ppl download the trail. And! maybe even buy the game if it's a step in the right direction.
I dont have nothing more to add jajaja. Im complete agree with you, now im in battlefield 4 and 1 and there servers are full of people. It means a lot😅
Squad is core to BF because it promotes teamwork but also squad identity to help players identify between allie and foe, like in previous BF it was soldier's country identity. It also sets the mood to fight for a purpose, like US vs RUS, RUS vs CHN, CHN vs US. Specialists make BF an individual fight about mercenaries
Thats the thing about the old classes system. It was a well balanced version of rock-paper-scissors. It was well polished and worked wonderfully for encouraging squad dynamics...
This specialist system was complete unbalanced rubbish that encouraged lone wolf gameplay.
@@Klaaism Too much cover and character/ map rework, not enough guns and its 2 seasons in and showing “content” thats wont be here till season 3 as if you want the fanbase to show you pity. Premium DLC from previous battlefields gave us more content then this; PREMIUM: 10 Weapons, 6 Gadgets, 4 new maps, New vehicles. It is clear and its time to accept that this is not the same Dice team we’ve all known and love, but a new dev team over at Dice that was hired who have no idea what Battlefield is and only know how to make hero shooters and live service games and are there just to make money. DICE and Battlefield are dead. THE END
Honestly, because they said many times they won’t get rid of specialists, they should at least try to make the specialists have a US, Russian and China version of those specialist. So that we can identify much easier and also if they restrict the type of guns and gadgets they can have it would be much better
@@Klaaism specialists where designed for hazard zone, afterwards they added the other bf stuff where it doesnt work, they should copy the battlefront system for all out warfare etc
Well NoPats are actually mercenaries. They are not citizens of any country hence Non-Patriated designation. It’s still weird to see “clones” on both teams.

@@LionidasL10 who said it wasn't, but why not just play regular BF3 then lol
Me & my friends would always talk about how specialists & classes need to merge. This is a step in the right direction & I'm glad about that
Yeah, that was what I thinked too, specialist are a good idea, but not instead of the class system, merging them both are a good way, hoping that like gadget, there will be some category for weapon too for each class, like no more Mackay using sniper, or some thing like that, each class have access to their own category of weapon+ the weapon available for everyone (like we had in previous game)
Using every weapon and gadget with every character to make the stuff you want is a good idea on the paper, but in fact, that remove mostly the need to play in team, what it make battlefield
@@tomviron6338 I disagree that it removed the need for teamplay. Solo players don't win games in 32vs32. The teamplay complaints are still mostly from the beta, where there was literally no way to communicate in any way except firing your gun in morse code or drawing on walls. Now we have squad VOIP, team and squad chat, the commorose and squad orders, as well as the game informing you who has ammo when you call for ammo and who has health when your HP is low. A team or squad working together will always perform better than when they work alone.
Or maybe it's just because I pretty much only play breakthrough and so backcapping individuals have almost no impact.
It would increase the importance of teamwork for sure. Not having any restrictions results in funny interactions like Angel being able to have a launcher in his gadget slot and also give himself an infinite supply of launcher ammo with his own loadout crate, rather than needing teammates to help refill that ammo.
Hmm, I'm interested in the Vault Weapon concept. If you ask me, the setting's use of stateless mercenaries who have to scrounge to survive fits the use of old equipment very well. Even weapons dating back to WW2 could easily see use in the field, as they do in, say, Syria and Ukraine at present.
I want to be able to flex on some fancy operator by popping him with a Lee-Enfield.
goals
I don't remember for sure but back when I played at launch I remember something about the Lee being massively off. Like the wrong number of rounds in the mag or something like that but I can't remember
I want BFV level Lee in 2042. That'd bring me back
Imagine they say „folks, with Season 2 we introduce 4 new maps, 17 new weapons with all the Portal Weapons as well“ just imagine
and classes without specialists
One can only dream.
We can imagine all we want since it ain't happening lol
Yeah I imagine lol but they already confirmed 1 map only for season 2. We'll see whats up.
its gonna be 1 new map. this game is on life support sadly they are still lying
Credit where credit's due, everything in this is positive and a step in the right direction. How they got it so wrong in the first place blows my mind, but let's just hope they continue to listen to our feedback and make it into the game that we all wanted.
Honestly, I think it's because they ignored the backlash and player opinions for so long. They had the mindset "we're right, the player base is wrong" and I think that all changed once the player count dropped drastically.
With only 4 seasons I kinda still think this game is dead. But with the new management at Dice and EA and with them asking all sorts of questions about the next BF I have hope for BF6
Imagine if they actually delayed the game for one year, and somehow managed to implement the map changes they got from current feedback (which if they had decent playtesters or more experienced map designers in the first place would have identified earlier problems and shifted fixes to more-or-less what we're seeing here), then the hypothetical launch later this year would have seen a much better reception.
WHERE IS LEVOLUTION????

i hope i will get a beta code, i look forward to full release next year xDDD
unbelievable that a battlefield can have a worse start than bf 4 and bf5
Don't let them lie to you!
Remember! Ea is company of liars!
Finally! What I have been waiting for since launch, a revision of the specialists and going back to the class system. It would be a nice little addition if they added a "default" skin for each class, in case you dont want to look and play like any of the specialists and just want to be a "random soldier" on the BF. That would be cool.
or rather the skin that will be different in each of the teams)))
I really wish they'd make specialists like how battlefront 2 is with heros
They need a specialist “US MARINE” and “RUSSIAN GROUND FORCE” in each class with unique abilities like all other specialist. That way they can actually still have value in playing them.
Just split them into the two teams and delete the laser tag lights, problem solved
@@mcombuster
That wouldn't be balanced though because of their dumb unique abilities. One team being able to use riot shields while the other can't would be terrible, same with the wall hacks, flying squirrel, and pretty much all of them.
DICE, look back what your former devs did in previous battlefield.
I love the way the "As Vals" variant in the bf2042 with different name has such a high customizability, looking forward to this on all weapons

@@amitydestroyer338 Ain't no way Einstein
I appreciate you actually listening and implementing feedback. Here are some additional thoughts:
- Finally! classes! I hope this will be a perfect combination between old and new systems.
- The new gritty looks of the specialists does match the game more, but it seems unnecessary considering how much you just cover their looks with helmets and masks.
- Instead of vault weapons, I would actually very much prefer brand new 2042 weapons
- Destructible assets are CRUCIAL. It initially allows cover for infantry but it also needs to allow vehicles to smash through that cover. We need less unbreakable cement barricades and shipping containers.
- The new Renewal and Orbital looks amazing and I can't wait to play them.
- Lastly, I think you could really create two or three different versions of the smaller 64 player conquest maps using different sections of out of the Large 128 player conquest maps. Please
This is actually really good constructive criticism, but to me the main issue is still the server browser, persistent official servers, proper vehicle balance and new maps.
were getting new guns we get 2 every season so we will have a total of 8 NEW weapons but the fact that theyre offering to put in the vault wepons is a huuuuuge step forward. the constant whining about needing more weapons is getting addressed yet seems like people still arent happy
i like youre idea of 2-3 variations for 64 player maps that would be nice and just have them all on random gernation so you never know what youre getting
@@ImTheOGslowski That is a good point. I think just the initial number of base game weapons was underwhelming for me. But yes, moving forward with new weapons every season will eventually fill in the gaps. Like in BF1 after the additional DLCs basically doubled the amount of weapons in the game. However, I still think that the vault weapons should stay in portal, but that's just my opinion.
and thank you! It would add a lot of variety with minimal effort on their part to split them up.
Ever since they released exodus i cant remember the last time i played 120 conquest.
NOOO, Correction: NEED ALL VAULT WEAPONS AND NEW GUNS!!
Classes are a key function to the Battlefield series. It doesn't make sense for a sniper to have a stinger missile or AT rocket, or for a support soldier to have a sniper rifle. Glad they're coming back, and please keep them in future games.
This is a huge step in the right direction. Please continue to bring back the class system. Limit what weapons each class can use again so people actually pick a role they might play. And continue to keep bringing in weapons and maps. Honestly bf2042-ized classic maps, similar to adding the portal weapons, would be a great way to quickly add in new maps for the community.

I am not so sure that they will give up on the specialists. Classes which are only used to group the specialists up, are of little use.
Weapons have to be limited to certain classes again like in provious Battlefield. This brings back some sense into the classes.
The way they plan to do it now, it is still possible to be an antitank with a sniper rifle. Were ist the improvement?

@@celsi5563 exactly
@@celsi5563 And what exactly is the problem with that? Literally what is the problem of having a rocket launcher and a sniper rifle? How is that worse than having a rocket launcher and a DMR, an available combination in bf4? If you wanted to say ammo and sniper rifle, I can see you potentially having a point. But the classes will probably mean that stops being possible, at least with the mobility specialists that most benefit from the combination. On the other hand, SOFLAM and an smg? Do you have an issue with that combination? Assault rifle and ammo? You might have a point if all the portal weapons were in AOW, but there's a whole 2 shotguns, 4 DMRs, 3 sniper rifles, 2 LMGs etc. There's simply not enough tools for people right now to immediately go back to bf4 classes. And if you want classes as soon as possible, there won't be when classes are implemented.
Honestly the main reason I stopped playing was due to a lack of facial hair so this will bring me back for sure
So no server browser to search specific regions to play in?

More of an echo chamber but ok
I knew it. This is Battlefield 4 all over again.
Lol😅
Did they change the shot here 1:31 It had 2 empty slots for specialists in the Assault and Support categories
If there's one thing that would bring me back to this game(Alongside plenty of content) it would be an option to select a generic soldier instead of a specialist. I've always felt more attached to the faceless soldiers of the franchise, whether it's the Chinese Engineer with his iconic gas mask from Battlefield 4 or the caped snipers of the American and Italian team from Battlefield 1. To have distinct class based soldiers for both countries would be awesome.
If that won't happen, I at least want to see a return to "Character silhouettes". Say, a large ammo-filled backpack for the Support class, a more slender Engineer with a rocket on their back, Medic with a doctor bag on their hip and perhaps a scout with a cape. Something like this would make it more easy to identify your team and enemy's classes and react accordingly.
Couldn't agree more. Specialists completely ruin the immersion. They tried to hard to incorporate elements of a hero shooter that no Battlefield fan wants, and by design, that fundamentally changed the way the games core mechanics functioned. Worst decision ever.
The nameless characters won't return, they've said that already. But I do wish that the class silhouettes are implemented.
I think a possible rework that uses a point system like in Battlefront 2 might work really well, instead of treating specialists as the normal soldiers, they could then become well, specialists, characters you get to play as by doing well
I agree with you friend I used to love them generic default characters and NPC from the story mode like 007 golden eye N64 oh yeah that's what made it memorable
@@swappinqentertainment Battlefield 5 was alright at launch, and became great over time. It's kind of a blend between BF4's gunplay, Battlefield 1's atmosphere and Battlefield Hardline's variety of gadgets. Worth buying when it's on sale.

@@riezki4086 Or they could do “Russian” version of outfits or even create Russian Operators. Most of actual outfis are very NATO a-like.
The main gripe about specialists is that there is nothing setting enemies apart from teammates. If they pick the same specialist they look exactly like you. You instead have to wait for the red dot to pop up or just waste ammo spraying into a body that might be an enemy. If you guys give different looks to the factions and make specialist abilities a class equipable instead of locked to a set character you would have a great start for a battlefield game. This is a step in the right direction but it feels like you guys have forgotten the formula for battlefield. I will not be returning until specialists are removed entirely.
Can you fix the SFAR-M GL assault rifle? It keeps freezing up when your switching from granade launcher to bullets. It's been doing it for over a month.
This feels like it should’ve all been at launch.it’s heartbreaking watching a series that’s been cherished by the community fall so hard
I feel this, I wouldn’t mind waiting longer if it meant that they released a game that wasn’t so bare and buggy like how 2042 launched.
They need to change the theme song or remix it most of it is trash
Battlefield 1 apocalypse is better
Yep :(
But it does look like their trying to fix things and revive the series to an extent
I never really liked “assault” as a non-medic class. It feels like it’s designed as a very selfish class that caters to players who focus solely on getting kills for themselves. Mackay, Sundance, and (arguably) Dozer don’t really provide anything for their teammates, and encourage a “lone wolf” playstyle instead of working together as a team. The Med Pen and Armor Plate gadgets solely benefit the user, offering no value to the team.
I feel like BF4 did classes best (Assault kept teammates alive, engineer took out enemy vehicles, support kept teammates fully stocked, and recon spotted enemies and allowed teammates to respawn on the frontlines).
Also, specialists really need to look different on opposing sides. Seeing 50 clones of the same character that all look exactly the same, some on your side, and some on the other, can be very confusing in combat and further degrades the feeling of immersion from past Battlefield titles.
Some more things that the game needs:
-Server Browser
-Much more weapons and maps in AOW
-An animated score counter that totals up points after a play (like in previous battlefield titles)
-Greatly improved destruction & levolution (which both seem nonexistent in this game)
-Naval vehicles
Assault class in BF1 was also like this, infantry focused guns and the ability to take on vehicles but didn't have much else to offer to the team.
@UCxtAQ2oWyjR_rPFVI0XtOcQ You were going strong until you added Support was less important.
Sad but they will not gonna implement anything to make bf good EA only hear money
You really are hitting the spot. Also the jets have to be reworked. Starting from:
-the flying physiks
-their crosshair
-weapons
Everything else
I feel like you should swap Assault and Support because to me Support felt like keeping allies alive while Assault kept them stocked and keep going.
The way i see the map changes is the Season 0 maps were when the conflict was really starting. And now with all the changes its the natural evolution of the visual storytelling. The conflict has been going for a while and now the maps are starting to represent that.
I just bought the game, and it's very good and interesting, hopefully always fix bugs because I feel bugs, and always market this game so people are interested and busy playing it, I really like it
Love the new additions and good to see feedback is being listened too. We just need more Maps as one per season is a bit lacking in terms of content. I remember the days of battlefield 3 where we got 4 maps per quarter on the season pass
Exactly. Battlefield 4 they gave us 4-5 maps every season. This 2 new maps a year is trash considering they took story mode away. Took away traditional game modes(portal is a big miss overall so the modes in it don't count to me). Just missing so much.

So how are we going to be able to diegetically distinguish a friendly specialist from an enemy specialist?
Why can't the specialist characters be asymmetrical to either faction?
I like that they are putting specialists into the more traditional fields that we all love! Was wondering if they could maybe add faction specific uniforms for each of the specialists? I think it would be a nice touch.
What you don't like fighting 20 of the same looking people
If the do faction specific uniforms it defeats the mercenary setting they are going for. It's the reason we're called no pats, because we aren't fighting for any nation out of loyalty but instead for money.... speaking of money they also wouldn't be able to sell outfits if they do that
UP
Since day one, I've been thinking they should double the amount of specialist, if they want to keep the whole specialist thing going(monetization), and just make them faction specific. For example, have macay be on the us team and create a new character with a unique look and with macays tools. Keep boris as a russian faction character and create a new character... and so on.

Does this mean the class system will only enable you use certain guns like the previous BF titles
How can i unlock the weapons from season 1
Okay this a very good improvement! Excited to have a more cohesive gameplay experience with the added classes system. I wish all the portal guns could be just dropped in straight away but making them unlockables is also good. Just don't drip feed it please. 👍
Kerel ga je schamen met zo'n comment lol, we moeten wapens hebben en maps...

Screw dice and their empty promises. Video games are dying
@@HostmorkeCZ Video games aren't going anywhere. It's the Old Guard that's dying and tbh, good. Indie devs are doing it better anyway.
that would make too much sense and we stopped doing that after 2016
@@BullsMahunny that's as true as it is sad, the fact that small indie developers can do the things better because they are still grounded enough to do this thing, you know the thing that ubi, ea and dice etc. Call devil's work, to LISTEN to a community
@@chloe59k It's clear they wanted to reach a wider audience and compete with WZ, Apex and Fornite. It's a businesses at the end of the day, sadly, content niche players can do more to help your product than disenfranchising them.
Community: we need more cover
Dice: did you say GREEN CONTAINERS?
Is there more map destruction? Or is everything still static?
I can't believe they're finally listening to the community and bringing classes back, congratulations dice
I suggest to wait with celebrating until we really see how classes will be implemented without getting rid of the specialists. I expect some half measure to make us shut up instead of a real improvement.
I am pretty sure that they will not restrict the weapons to certain classes which leads the concept of classes ad absurdum by 50% already.
@@celsi5563 this
@@celsi5563 Weapon restrictions make battlefield boring but I wouldn't mind certain limited restrictions and to be honest most of the specialists gadgets are what battlefield was missing
Imagine the size of the failure and scandal that they actually turned around
@@landturtle7470
Sorry, I disagree. Missing weapon restrictions make the game less demanding. You do not have to chose between anti-tank equipment and your favorite sniper rifle - you can have both. That is easy, convenient = boring to me. I play to be challenged, not to go the easy way (no offence intended)
Wow... Orbital actually looks great! I already liked it more than the other maps tbh, but with that update it actually looks genuinely good and up to a far higher quality. Still iffy on Renewal's rework, but eh. Not every map in old BF games was good either lol. Also, class system is a much-welcome addition, thank you for actually listening
Your right orbital is my favorite map but with this new update it looks amazing.
What class system, is the same system with operators in 4 groups, but still the same...
@@ipsenfury balance
So does this mean that engineers will be able to have the anti air rocket just to them sleves and no other class gets them or all classes are still get all types of rockets
Weird how few people only mentioned new map looking exactly like Discarded. That is some next level skeleton crew approach
Didn't expect that orbital got a rework in season 2. The class system is finally coming back. This is a W for the battlefield. Looking forward to getting my hands on it :)
Orbital rework looks fantastic! Especially the main stretch between the rocket building and the rocket itself. Looks like a battle happened, and this is the final push now.
I know Orbital is best launch map no cap
People still complaining
@@craiglewis8272 welcome to the ERA we are on.
@@craiglewis8272 see I’m very simple to please. I paid $60, I put in more than 60 hours so I’ve DefinTely gotten my moneys worth. Everything else we get for free is just a bonus in my eyes.
This video does a great job illustrating that BF2042 was released at least a year too early.
The beta was proof that it needed to be delayed.
Is that a MPX? The new dlc gun ?
How will the orbital levolution play into the new version?
Things that we want to see: more new maps and guns
Things that probably will happened: BF2042 turns to be F2P and only few maps rework and remodelling guns from old BF series
If they make it F2P they will lose all support from their fanbase, what they should make F2P is Hazard Zone only
if they make it F2P i and probably a lot of other people will never buy another battlefield game ever again. always preordered every battlefield and was pretty satisfied with it. but if they let u preorder this pile of garbage and then make it f2p they will lose all their credibility
Disappointing to see that we won't be getting a solution for enemies being clones of our team. You could have just split the specialists into the two teams and make their gadgets shared.
Imo they should just make everyone else look like default soldiers so you aren’t seeing 3 mckays running about. It’s immersion killing and just looks ridiculous.
Faction based specialist you mean? You're right, they could have the same or equivalent gadgets to their opposition counter parts; just different character skin. I doubt it'd be all that hard to pull off.
Do you not realize every battlefield class has always been identical visually to their respective classes, Assault class dominated BF3 and BF4 but you didn't hear anyone complaining about clones then.
@@terryglover6442 Because they looked different...
@@terryglover6442 stop making sense
Heres an idea for your specialist / class system setup: Keep the class system as is but have the "no pats" specialists on one side and then the "dark market" specialists grouped on another side so the specialists and class system gets setup properly ... that way there isnt the same specialists on the same sides ... it would make more sense
The games in a way better state than when I first picked it up last year. Exposure is a great map. I’m really wanting more maps and weapons. Season two looks like I will jump back in.
This looks like a super solid update, that class system makes so much more sense than before, I think if they did that from the start it would’ve been less polarizing. I’m actually excited for this!
the class system will arrive in season 3
@@unclefester1991 Yeah, so the new update will actually make the specialist worse
It does I'm so excited, 2 reworked maps and a new map coming season 2 and new weapons
@@unclefester1991 that’s the entire point…
@@unclefester1991 it’s almost as if that’s the point
Wow. At this pace, in 2 years from now, it might almost feel like a Battlefield game.
Specialists in the community isn't "polarizing," It's overwhelmingly despised. It's put players in Hardline.
It can barely keep up with a nearly 9 year old entry.
I'll be on BF4 until all of their development cycles- er, "Seasons" are finished. Then maybe I'll give it another look.
The before photos of the updated maps makes me think we’ve been playing a BETA this whole time
Players: Valid Criticism
DICE: Yeah Guys, we have heard you and we are going to ignore you.
I want them to announce a new expansion for BF4, id pay anything for it
Lol we will be remastering the graphics and animations of the final product of BF4 as well as adding 6 maps
@@DJNefarious447 just imaging rematering bf4 and bf3 toghether, that would be nuts
This development update should have been an internal DICE email to staff before the game was even announced.
Is this class system actually going to implement classes with specific equipment attached?
I’ll say you guys really turned this game around. Thanks for listening to us. Definitely hype for season 2! This is looking great!!
It’s funny how you guys go from disrespecting BF2042 to being appreciated. This happens all the time with BF games lol
@@jumpman6524 maybe one day they will release a finished game lmao
Quality features + Guns + Maps = The 2042 we want.
Not cosmetics or new specialists.
We want more maps from All-Out-Warfare & Portal instead of just one map every season. We want classes back & make AI specialists playable. We want more weapons & vehicles rather than two. And we want more games, classes, maps, weapons & vehicles from Portal as well.
DICE, come on. We do not want another disappointment for 2042 again. We want a good Battlefield that we want.
It is a good battlefield
Dice reply....
"We give you jack pumpkin character skin & Halloween vehicle skins"
@@gutstheblackknight6393 where .....
I hope so 😂@@darthrevanthegreat4189
That's a lot of "want" but well allow it.
Hopefully they will give each specialist permanent gadget according to their class, for example engineer specialists have repair tools, while recons have motion sensor or something.
I am liking these updates. I havent played the newest season, but I am gonna jump back in after seeing the nice work you did with map overhauls.
5:24 We need more behind the scene things . Like true devlogs on what your are working on guys , even on the next battlefield game (core mechanics , destruction etc...)
I like that the maps look as if they’ve had action in them that we’ve been apart of and that’s shaped what they will look like going forward, good stuff
can we please fix the gun progression bug, I have guns that are almost all the way "upgraded" but they are still grayed out and have to use them bone stock.
How much time is a season ?
This is genuinely getting my excited for the game again. I'm glad they're still trying to fix this and are listening to the community.
BF is cinematic,destructible, immersive and a lil bit of horror, DON'T LOSE THE DNA OF THIS GREAT FRANCHISE
@@figgo6309 I think it was the dinosaurs.
@@figgo6309 maybe he meant humor? idk lol
@@figgo6309 HAHA the operators is an horror for sure
Looks like it's getting a step in the correct direction, I'll be joining during season 3 if all goes according to plan.
I can’t even play. My game asks for me to sign in an old email (they I can’t login to) and confirm my ea account. ??? What do I do?
This is definitely a step in the right direction.
But we could still need some more vehicle balance, like the stealth heli, it’s basically unkillable while staying in stealth mode and having flares.
And jets need more customisations.
there is one point what every map is missing: dirt! everything looks so clean. no debris no dust no rubble, just one single plastic bag flying around here and there. every paintboll field looks more like a warzone than the bf 2042 maps. you put some random cover here and there in kaleidoscope but it dont makes this map look like a warzone. when do we get a server browser in all out warfare???? im tired of this matchmaking that brings the same 3 maps over and over again. whats wrong with joining one server and playing a map rotation without leaving the server? and why i have to change my voice chat options every time when i joining a server from party to squad? why are no squad options in general? we are all aduld people that can do our own dessisions like how we set our sound options or in whitch squad to join.
Before = Alpha build
After = Beta build
Awesome update wish it was like this at launch but the new devs/management are killing it by making these changes and new content reworks. Hazard zone should be worked on and should go free to play
Most of this is certainly a positive move, which is great and i cant wait to experience it. But i got 2 issues, first is, there was no a single mention of improving game performance, as that is a major issue even for people with mid end pc's. Second is, although cluttering maps with cover is good for infantry, there really needs to be more thought put into it than just copy pasting the same sandbag over and over 20 times and calling it a day, it feels stale and lazy imo.
Agreed! These developers got lazy with the details after battlefield 1. Feels more like an arcade game rather than a truly immersive experience.
im running a pc with mid end specs and at launch the game was unplayable for me .. almost a year later now ,has it improved on that matter ? i don't own the game i only tried it at beta launch and when it was free for a weekend.. but i got some ideas of buying the game and i dont want to regret it

As negative as the attitude of fans toward 2042 has been, you can't lie, this update is truly a step in the right direction. I'm honestly proud of them for continuing to work to improve the game rather than just abandoning it as I feared. I'm excited for the future of the game and to see all the upcoming improvements.
Underrated comment right here 👏 ⬆️
the gaming community has become so toxic. most of the people hating on battlefield still probably havent even played it since launch and are scared to even form a new opinion as it would differ from the general populous
Dont let them lie to you!
They LEGALLY have to uphold at least 4 season drops as per their Preorder promises. Otherwise they would loose all sales via lawsuit. None of this is impressive given the amount of time they've had. They're giving us the bare minimum to avoid being sued.
@@silvershadow001 remember when we used to get these things day 1 right off the disk? When the $60 was well worth it? Now these triple A companies with billions get away with 1/3 of the game at launch and praise when 1/2 the game is finished a year later. I understand where he’s coming from, I too am happy the game will be improved, but the state of gaming right now when it comes to full releases is gross.
Was that Battlefront 2 at 5:41?
