El Alamein from BF1942 looks amazing. Glad they didn't touch anything and it's still a tank fest, 8 tanks on the map in the video.

They released early or a glitch? Or did you change your location to play overseas with 500 ping?

Yes, same on PC with EA Play. Basic version is the 10 hour trial, and I think Play Pro is pc exclusive not sure though and it's the full game ultimate edition (for all EA games, I play a little FIFA with it too). I buy a year of Play Pro and Xbox Game Pass PC.

Early reviews looking pretty damn good fellas. 80 on metacritic from 17 reviews so far. One perfect score. GameSpot, GameInformer, Dexerto all saying the same thing.

Consensus is the game is fun with a ton of content and portal to no surprise steals the show.

quote:

Battlefield 2042 brings the sandbox back to the series in bold and controversial ways. The new Specialist system might seem like sacrilege at first, but it opens up gameplay opportunities that weren’t possible in previous titles. The massive, well-designed maps offer plenty of room for experimentation and emergent stories, and the modes are a blast. And that’s just All-Out Warfare. Between that, Hazard Zone, and the expansive Battlefield Portal, Battlefield 2042 has something for everyone, without feeling like it’s stretched too thin. It’s a true evolution of the series, one that pushes back against a stagnation that threatened the series’ future. It won’t be for everyone, but for players who crave imagination and fun from their Battlefields, it will give them everything that they crave and more.

quote:

Battlefield 2042 does everything expected of it and more. Not content with fully succeeding in its traditional multi-pan, this opus has the luxury of offering additional gigantic and highly qualitative content to players. Portal mode seems ready to keep all of its promises and allow the creation of various modes whether they are crazy or competitive. Hazard Zone, on the other hand, succeeds in unexpected situations and offers a particularly successful reading of the game in squads. Beautiful as a truck, generous, modular and damn fun to play, 2042 is neither more nor less than one of the best games of the license.

quote:

Being online-only, Battlefield 2042 had to make up for its lack of any single-player content whatsoever with a variety of worthwhile online content. The game’s developers have not only succeeded in that regard, but they have gone above and beyond. All-Out Warfare is a fantastic evolution on the classic Battlefield experience, modernizing the franchise with more scale, spectacle, and ways to play than ever before. Battlefield Portal and Hazard Zone likewise shine in their own regards, with the former proving that it can serve as the base for players to create their own unique experiences within 2042. If any future Battlefield title omits these two modes, I might consider them incomplete.

quote:

Battlefield 2042 is the most fun I've had with a Battlefield game since Bad Company 2. Its massive scale, gorgeous maps, and unrelenting focus on team-play positions 2042 as a Battlefield experience that can grow and evolve long into the future.

quote:

From an early glimpse though, 2042 comes bundled with a significant amount of content that's all extremely fun to run wild in. Regular multiplayer is just as fun in 2042 as it's ever been, but Portal unquestionably steals the show. It's going to be an absolute treat watching the community put together some truly special concepts in due time.

The game feels pretty fantastic so far. Way better than the beta that had me questioning it. The DM7 with the holo site is fuego.

So many games out right now


eta: but where is the BF scoreboard during the game?

Good to hear, seems to be what most are saying. Some people have a hard time understanding the point of a beta but I won't name names.

20 minutes until I can jump on.

Calling it at 6:18am lol, game is fun as hell. Ran into a couple small bugs but after a couple portal games and a 2042 game we tried out hazard zone and it was fun as shite once learned it a bit. Played that for several hours. Great with friends, it's chaos to try and extract we got one and took about 6 squads down to accomplish.
