I agree 100%. Don’t get me wrong though BF2042 can be fun at times it just has never felt like a battlefield game. I’d say it feels more like call of duty tbh.
Same I tried it with the new map and it’s awful, robo dogs, shields, auto turrets. Plus people running round with daft guns and skins. Give me classes and realism back
Crazy to think I started following your channel because of battlefield and only for battlefield back when BF3 was big. Thanks for the great videos for all those years Jack. (little thing I've always wished was that I'd be able to find you in a match of Battlefield and play either with or against you)
People crack me tf up man. They're like"bro all these maps are too big" then they drop a very nice infantry focused map and they're like " this map is too small" stop complaining and enjoy the game dude Jesus.
I bought this game for $10 yesterday and only play the portal mode for the older games. Man I wish those games would make a comeback. BC 2 and BF 3 were my favorites
Bad Company 2 has servers, but there is a work around that has to be done for it to work. EA quit servers but someone else is running servers. the fix is on youtube
The new map is very good but Dice fumbled hard when it came to making the spawns for the conquest layout, it feels like there is an unnecessary amount of walking and the objectives themselves aren’t that great as points of interest to fight over, especially A1 and E1 which are too small and too open respectively
@@collinthegamer510 That is most likely the case, it is just a skeleton crew working on this game, that can be anywhere from 10-20 developers on this game and the rest of the studio is working on the next iteration of the series. If you think about it the next BF game is supposed to release next year so it would make sense on that.
Don't so much have a problem with the map size as a whole but rather I wish that the central city area was bigger. Haven't played TDM on it but I have a feeling it probably plays pretty well. On conquest and breakthrough though, the one side of the map just feels lifeless.
Nooo big maps are not the move. All of the original maps on 2042 were too big at launch. You are probably one of those players that doesn’t play the objective a lot, because if you did you wouldn’t want objectives so spaced out
I'm glad you mentioned the cap zone size, some maps have very small caps and can't captured with vehicles , unnecessary clutter and narrow routes, it's like DICE don't want you to capture objectives with vehicles.
I been playing Battlefield 4 recently and it's has alot of full servers, game is alive as ever and as for Battlefield 2042 havent had fun with that game in almost a year, the game is absolutely soulless.
Only thing about Bf4 that is bad imo is that you can't unlock everything now. There is literally 0 servers running Chainlink, which you need for the MPX.
@@SafetyKitten I went back and checked, there's only 3 servers, all from Germany, that run chainlink. And one of them is titled MPX with 10 player max. Only issue now is that I don't have any friends that also have Bf4.
@@chaimkobylinski1988 Yeah, I've been around since the Wolf 3D days. FPS games more or less all blend together anymore, except for 2042 with all the cool specialist gadgets. Sundance's wingsuit was like a breath of fresh air for me honestly, and each specialist feels fun and different to play. I feel like a lot of the people that whine about the changes 2042 made are those that haven't been around anywhere near as long either of us and haven't had enough experience to realize that most other FPS games don't have as much variance in gameplay as they would like to think.
I’ve been around since the beta for BF3 so I’d like to say I’m not new by any means. This map does just truly feel lazy and I’m sorry if we don’t agree
I agree with the map balancing as I’ve played over 20 games on this map and only see USA win 3 times. And it’s hard to take flags back as there’s no jeeps to jump in and quickly get behind team. You should be able to spawn into chopper as a passenger even if your squad mate isn’t flying
I think the range on that new launcher has been reduced to prevent people from spamming it in the deployment areas and such. Liz is literally used as a mortar in rush and breakthrough by people who just sit at the back so I guess they wanted to prevent that again. Although it shouldn't be a problem anyway since the speed and turning radius on those rockets seem to be negligable, not to mention the constant need for line of sight. Let's hope they don't pull a BF4 on the thing and give it a reduced damage debuff again
The matchmaking is so terrible and especially for this map. This map makes it impossible to flip the score because there is virtually no cover on the outer edges of the map…
I appreciate your stuff Jack because you never abandoned BF. It’s the only FPS I’m into watching. Warzone bores me to tears. I can’t wait for my JackFrags and Flakfire BF 2025 videos hopefully coming soon.
jack most ultra settings are indistinguishable from the high setting, just put it a notch down from ultra and the game wont look different but you'll get more fps.
@@greelow in fact I just had the best experience with this one. Indeed, if you hold the middle, you have a huge advantage, more than in other maps, and it can lead to 400-0. But the whole point is to get the middle area, and if you do take it back, you can reverse the entire game. We were losing 180 to 500 and we WON ! Never saw any reversed situation like this one in any game before
much love jack been a big battlefield player since i was a kid with my family this maps deff a big improvement for this game the guns are crispy keep up the great content boss.
Just played some BF today. Was super fun, can't wait to see what DICE brings us in 25. As for WZ, who cares? If it wasn't for UA-camrs and streamers that game would be dead. Steam charts don't lie.
been playing BF2042 the past few months, 128 conquest mode makes me feel like I can fit and fill ANY role at ANY point and I love this so much. imo best BF game for solo players
Weirdly, I agree about it being the best BF for solo players. But for me what makes battlefield special is the teamplay and thats why this one is my least favourite of the series.
It would be nice to see more BF videos from you, I know people have basically given up on it. I was brought here because of your battlefield content and I stayed for everything you do. Just miss the good old days of BF4 and all the content on youtube. Like battlefield friends was so good, but as things do, it's all changed.
Back before everything became infantry only maps. DICE tried to go back to their roots once with 2042, with large scale maps and multi-domain warfare; and all the BC2/Metro/Locker/CoD players were upset.
I like the map. If you capture B, C and whichever side you start from, those are easy to defend. Funneling enemy to D is good so you always have high ground
1:53 just one of the MANY reasons bf2042 fails the bf test; that rocket impact should have absolutely killed Jack and destroyed that wall. This looks and plays far more like a cod entry than a bf entry. There's no "weight" to anything.
I was thinking the exact same thing a few days ago when I first tried this map. It was so OBVIOUSLY 1 sided map that it's crazy. Turns out I'm not alone...
Took a lil minute to learn , seems like the ttk is almost instantaneous, i dont like fire 75%of my mag missing another 75% shots and just getting instantly deleted by someone who has there aim assist turned all the way up
Yeah it pisses me off there is no hardcore!! Because of the stupid skins it would have to be generic skins on soldiers. I miss so much playing hardcore in BF1, no fucking HUD for everything all the time. This game is for assisted people, no real skills needed...
I played yesterday for a few hours and had 6 losses in a row as US (wasn't until my 7th match until I finally was put on RU bizarrely) With the exception of one match, every single time they capped all points except for A1 and it was RU dominating. However, I played again today for a few hours and it seemed to be fairly even and I even had a few matches where US held the entire map. It does seem (from my limited personal perspective) to have somewhat balanced out as everybody gets more familiar with the map, but there is definitely a strategy. Really you want to take the upper objectives first and work your way down. It's nearly impossible to try and fight upwards from D1. From there the team that holds B1 and C1 seems to always runaway with the win and its very difficult for the other side to make a comeback as they end up having to fight uphill from spawn to reclaim those central objectives. Its definitely fun to play in small bursts, but the map in general seems to feel a bit uninspired and lacking atmosphere. The theme is cool but all just feels a bit rushed and underbaked imo compared to the other maps in previous seasons. I'm not someone who is deeply offended by the re-use of existing assets, I get why they may need to rely on that logistically - but every building having identical empty interiors makes it feel like once you've been in one building.. well you've seen the entire town.
Hey Jack, just wanting to say, love your videos mate, watched you for a long time and still get excited for your videos. Keep up the hard work, we appreciate it.
Every time i got put on the RU team we lost by a large margin, and every time i got put un the US team we won by a large margin, i cant put my finger on why that is so, but im also pretty sure is not an anecdotical ocurrence and its due to some map, spawn or vehicle imbalance
@Spooky-yr8be breakthrough, I never played BF42 before thus update either, so I can't name the map. It was a refinery of sorts in the desert. 🤔 I'm barely level 24
I have a galaxy s22 ultra and Warzone mobile is completely unplayable. The menu is the only thing that doesnt sutter, lag or freeze up. If it didnt freeze and then crash im positive my phone would burst into flames. Im sure they will get it optimized and working. As a father with 3 young kids having warzone accessible on my phone would be incredible......maybe someday.. great video as always jack!
@@SavingPvtBryan32 you'd be surprised, alot of people only play mobile games only, even going so far as to get gloves made for mobile games so sweat isn't getting in the way, it's kinda sad tbh.
@@SavingPvtBryan32 Monoply just made 2 billion I think in less than a year on mobile There are more people playing on mobile then on any other platform combined because everybody owns a phone even in poor countries
Started playing this game again couple of days ago, quite fun. But people are always playing only for kills mostly on my team, and not resing or giving ammo... Looking forward to the new one tho😍
Interesting… I can only get wins on the US side which proves to me that we shouldn’t be concerned with achieving a “perfect balance”. Sometimes you win and sometimes the other guys get to win. Just do your best and enjoy the experience
I love this game. I really dont know why so many people are hating on this game. I have also played the other versions of BF and I like this one the most.
Really? I thought Redacted was too linear and had too many bottlenecks. Perhaps good for 32p Rush, not sure, but terrible for any other mode, especially at higher player counts...
I still need to check out the new map, but the more I play or watch 2042, the more I really hope that in the next game, they drop the whole operators thing for generic namless soldiers like in past games... or at least have separate ones for the countries you play as. Seeing the same people shooting at each other on both the US and RU teams is so immersion breaking at times.
It's because its not a main entry title its a prequel to battlefield 2142 from 2006 , the gameplay is very similar to me , I played 2142 alot as a kid I enjoy 2042 for that reason I can see why someone may dislike it though if they didn't play 2142, the next game will probably be battlefield 6 main entry
The AK5C feels weak initially, but when the unlocks start coming in, it's a hell of a sturdy platform. Really enjoyed using it with subsonic and silencer
It's always one sided. Needs way more cover in the outskirts. Also some small vehicles to travel. Some buildings should be closer, like in COD. I noticed tanks can't drive over some vehicles, it's annoying
this map feels rushed and unfinished i dont get whats up with EAs obsession with baren open deserts, the top down view of it in the spawn selection screen the colored waters look ugly and could of totally been left out, they should of made this in a city environment like the grand bazaar level in bf3 there is to much nothing
Not the best and not the worst map. Unlocked new player card on first playthrough without knowing I did it. Many of the buildings are recycled floor plans from other maps.
I think vehicles have been getting destroyed too easily, especially after the Pondahawk was introduced. Or at least that's what a buddy of mine and myself were using. As Assault class, spawn in Pondahawk and just fly over everything while taking turns jumping onto tanks with C5. They have said in patch notes that they wanted to make the Engineer class the more focused vehicle counter.
Really tough today, let me know how you feel about Warzone Mobile too, thanks for watching!
Warzone mobile is ass on Android 😢
Jack, tell your DICE friends to put Rush back in the game
Mobile games are not my thing.
Do not play mobile games. Did not watch Westie stream it.
Warzone mobile needs a lot of work. Not fully optimized.

I never thought I’d say this but I’m having a blast with Bf2042
I have a galaxy s22 ultra and Warzone mobile is completely unplayable. The menu is the only thing that doesnt sutter, lag or freeze up. If it didnt freeze and then crash im positive my phone would burst into flames. Im sure they will get it optimized and working. As a father with 3 young kids having warzone accessible on my phone would be incredible......maybe someday.. great video as always jack!
Who the fuck plays anything on mobile. I have a s23 ultra and games don't even appeal to me on it
@@SavingPvtBryan32 you'd be surprised, alot of people only play mobile games only, even going so far as to get gloves made for mobile games so sweat isn't getting in the way, it's kinda sad tbh.
@@SavingPvtBryan32 Monoply just made 2 billion I think in less than a year on mobile There are more people playing on mobile then on any other platform combined because everybody owns a phone even in poor countries
Started playing this game again couple of days ago, quite fun. But people are always playing only for kills mostly on my team, and not resing or giving ammo...
Looking forward to the new one tho😍
2042 seems so uninspired..bf1 and 5 is where it's at. Expecially bf1, so detail rich and well thought in every aspect
100%, couldn’t agree more with that. 2042 feels soulless in comparison - both in environment/maps & gunplay.
I absolutely hated 5 because it felt so different from the older games.
Feels like that cod village map from mwll was what inspired them to make this monstrosity
Interesting… I can only get wins on the US side which proves to me that we shouldn’t be concerned with achieving a “perfect balance”. Sometimes you win and sometimes the other guys get to win. Just do your best and enjoy the experience
Battlefield isn’t supposed to be fast paste
No game is supposed to be any sort of Paste
I play with glue.
Battlefield isn't supposed to be cod!!
It’s in a sticky situation bro.
...Jesus loves you. He is your savior. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand!
I love this game. I really dont know why so many people are hating on this game. I have also played the other versions of BF and I like this one the most.
Every second week new skins are sold for 10-20€ but one map with 20 year old assets is called content. Its all old stuff.
I already miss Redacted
Really? I thought Redacted was too linear and had too many bottlenecks. Perhaps good for 32p Rush, not sure, but terrible for any other mode, especially at higher player counts...
@@NobbsAndVagene completely disagree
@@NobbsAndVagene conquest was great on it
It needs to be a permanent game mode on conquest
Never liked it
I still need to check out the new map, but the more I play or watch 2042, the more I really hope that in the next game, they drop the whole operators thing for generic namless soldiers like in past games... or at least have separate ones for the countries you play as. Seeing the same people shooting at each other on both the US and RU teams is so immersion breaking at times.
2042 awkwardly doesnt feel like a normal BF game. Idk how to explain it
It's because its not a main entry title its a prequel to battlefield 2142 from 2006 , the gameplay is very similar to me , I played 2142 alot as a kid I enjoy 2042 for that reason I can see why someone may dislike it though if they didn't play 2142, the next game will probably be battlefield 6 main entry
Feels like it to me and I’ve played all of them, including 2142.
@@welsh-cymru1588what part of the gameplay is similar to the 2142?
Agreed game feels more codish than a battlefield game
Loved how you rocket the guy carrying a shield! Lol
Tbh, I wanted a bigger map this season, and not infantry focused.
The colored pools are used to make something called Pot Rust and the rust from the pots make these different colors
105 FOV? Anything over 85 looks fisheye’d to me.
The AK5C feels weak initially, but when the unlocks start coming in, it's a hell of a sturdy platform. Really enjoyed using it with subsonic and silencer
I like the new map, although I realized it's never a balanced experience. Your either on the team that's dominating or getting fucked 😂
That ranger ran past him and then went "wait a minute..." and doubled back just to shoot at him 😂
well, safe to say I'm happy I didn't reinstall the game for this patch...
It's good fun. Goodbye, whiner. 😅
It's always one sided. Needs way more cover in the outskirts. Also some small vehicles to travel. Some buildings should be closer, like in COD.
I noticed tanks can't drive over some vehicles, it's annoying
this map feels rushed and unfinished i dont get whats up with EAs obsession with baren open deserts, the top down view of it in the spawn selection screen the colored waters look ugly and could of totally been left out, they should of made this in a city environment like the grand bazaar level in bf3 there is to much nothing
😅 okurr
Not the best and not the worst map. Unlocked new player card on first playthrough without knowing I did it. Many of the buildings are recycled floor plans from other maps.
This is the third small map in a row we are getting. Stadium will be the fourth. It is unplayable with 64 players.
@18:46 that was clean! Noice
I wish the next battlefield game doesn't suck as much as 2042
"shooting Doritos" i felt that in my soul hahaha
Why did they reduce the amount of explosives?? You cant destroy a Tank anymore...
To encourage tanks to not snipe from the rear all the time
Good, Spiderman and Batgirl shouldn't even have 2 C5, let alone 3 like they did pre update.
Play engineer if you want your 3 x C5 back.
I think vehicles have been getting destroyed too easily, especially after the Pondahawk was introduced.
Or at least that's what a buddy of mine and myself were using. As Assault class, spawn in Pondahawk and just fly over everything while taking turns jumping onto tanks with C5.
They have said in patch notes that they wanted to make the Engineer class the more focused vehicle counter.
I like this map, tight combat on city streets with plenty of paths to move. I think the points are very hard to hold and capture
I personally don't really think bf2042 feels like battlefield I liked bf5 and bf1
I really like the look of the map, I'm looking forward to play this map when i can
You've been lying about BF2042 for years, this game has always been terrible
Any real Battlefield Game doesn't need a "Tactical-Sprint". You'd simply have a cool little perk system that increased you and your teams sprint speed
I like the fire & reload sound of the new AR
Ive heard who ever controls "C" usually wins the round! I like this map cause its action packed! Feels more like BF to me
