Battlefield 2042 | Development Update - Maps & Specialists Reworks, Vault Weapons and More

Thought it could only go up from 4

Then just go play BF4 and 3 they still hold up.

or 2142

BFBC2 ❤

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Terrible idea. I don't want to play on the same three popular maps over and over again. Playing bf1 only on Amiens already was a bad enough experience.

@@ChlorineRaven lol what are you talking about they're all terrible maps.

@@ChlorineRaven What??? There are and there was plenty of servers with different maps and mapvote on the end.

@@prodematrix268 no ther isn.t

PORTAL its made for it D:

I feel like most modern games took away that feeling of being social. We need it to come back

Agreed. BIG BF VET COMMENT RIGHT HERE! I feel like this should be added back the class system update.

@@cashx370 splatoon 3 nailed it in that aspect imo edit - Nothing is perfect tho just remembered u gotta use ya phone to vc wth 😂

@@rg.0333 Not anymore now thats theres bluetooth support on Switch. Just connect some bluetooth headphones with mic and voila

@@cashx370 that's because the type of people that make these games seem to think that they can please everyone, which causes them to end up pleasing no one. They want to shield certain people from negativity and make it to where people will never get their feelings hurt, but they fail to realize that those types of people cannot be ever be happy or pleased, as they are eternally miserable.

Agreed, and on top of that can they put a spec ops level in game as well.

claymores are supposedly planned to be one of the few gadgets coming with specialist stuff, along with TUG and a few other things

The game is still in ALPHA. Let them finish the game before adding extras like that LOL

There are some Easter eggs in the game currently, but not to the extent of old battlefields. Last season there was the box relaying a message, and now there are radios around different maps that you have to get in order, which will then give you a cool charm

I miss a Battlefield.

Amen

Not every battlefield game but of course more destruction would be good

Hell yea thank you. Someone has to say it. The destruction in this game ducking sucks to the core. It’s actually sad Af too. Only cool thing is the tornadoes and the rocket blowing up.

​@@GIHD BF has had destructions since 1942 lol. It kept getting better until 2042.

Pre bad company battlefield games want to talk to you .

Dice needs to cover their losses and make a brand new game. Give people who a discount voucher if they pre-ordered and try to rebuild trust

@@pieceofshitzu2 i can't believe anyone really believes they're gonna do that. Literally 0 chance mate, not to burst your bubble but get real. If any company did, it might be CD Projekt Red or something, not EA lol

@@DeadSpacedOut CD Project Red? I would have believed before they released Cyberpunk. In comparison to Cyberpunk 2077 looked BF2042 like a finished game

@@Salerias Battlefield 2042 was way more unfinished than Cyberpunk lol, 2042 was more on the scale of Fallout 76. Maybe not quite that bad, but pretty close.

@@DeadSpacedOut bf2042 was practically unplayable for months

"hate and backlash" deservedly so.

@@AleXoEx0 hey at least that's what made them realize "okay this wasn't good, let's try and fix it"

It's great what they doing atm, there is some other success stories on game rising from depths to sunlight. However i just wish Battlefield launched in amazing shape and had that vision from the start, rather than playing catch up always.

More love to DICE please for the work they are doing. Sad that one always has to acknowledge the fact that DICE messed up with this game when trying to compliment them now, but they are on a strong path to redemption and the community should be very supportive of everything they are doing! Thrilled to see year two I’d happening 👌

@@moderncombat7058 The game is dead

What’s wrong with the current scoreboard?

​@@confucheese we should see the levels of all players. Is not the same a S233 is top leader with 50 - 8 than a level 12 doing that kind of score. In BFV I have seen a lot of these, and surprise, the low levels where hackers. Despite of that, I don't know why elements of the old scoreboards like that one are not present in this new game.

Yeah u right bro we want clan tag

and then give everyone 100 bucks and dance like a unicorn on a rainbow

Wake Island 2042

They fired all the good(white) developers and hired a bunch of degenerates and sub humans.

😭😭

They dont know how

The new devs are now playing the older BF games. They will eventually understand, how bad was 2042 compared to the previous titles.

@@PrasathMGM never played bf2042 but i played bf4. How are they different

Welcome back

I prefer that they polish the maps they already have instead of adding new ones. This update seems like a step in the right direction to me. Although I think that with 128 players they should abandon the specialist skins altogether. In battlefield 4 you were never going to find someone with the same face because in (I think) all the cases had their faces covered in some way. Something similar happened in battlefield 1, where either their faces were partially covered or their faces were so unrecognizable that if two snipers were the same you wouldn't notice. But in Battlefield 2042, Specialists have distinctive faces, distinctive voices, even ways of speaking. So when you see 5 identical soldiers you realize it, and it's unsettling. (english is not my main language)

All they want is money DICE dgaf about the community or what you want.

It never should have

I think people will be disappointed on how little effect it's gonna have on improving the game

It was a cash grab to do like apex what was attempted and failed epicly

@@ShanGamer1981 apex is a succes wdym?

@@yorimz8807 bros just salty there’s no titanfall 3, apex is good but it’s not a titanfall game

EA deserves none of our money. I wish someone would sue them.

@@AM-oj5xl yea thats not gonna happen srry

Same I was not gonna pay for it

how did you like it

Squad UX yes! And maybe add squad spawn vehicles instead of spawning on footmen. Also make the cap times WAY longer so it doesn't feel like whack-a-mole. The maps are so big and open that it's always better to sneak through to the backlines and cap before the enemy manage to react to defend. That's not a fun game flow. Noone wants to sit back there and wait for the inevitable solo harasser with squad spawn. Possibly add a lower limit for how many is needed to cap, proportitonal to distance from closest base so it feels like a team effort and not harrassment.

nothing surprising, dying player base and their gaas was not making money so that had to bend over for what us fans been wanting for years. Going back to class system is just one example.

Looks good

And like 100 other missing things! 😊

@@dominicmadrigal4898 looks good up until season 4 then its another bf universe again.

I don't know if I really want a Year 2 to a game with a skeleton crew and 1 Map per Season though... maybe if they ramped up Contents for Seasons 5-8 as a Year 2, I would be fine. Say 2 New Maps, 1 Portal Map and 6 Guns per Season would be fine with me, but if they really think anyone is gonna play a Season 5 with no Reworks, no Portal Maps, just 1 Singular New Map, I have a feeling that they're mistaken lol

How are they gonna sell you skins then?

Don’t know what more you want than the literal Green and Red light!!!

@@GG-zv9ku green = go = shoot, right?

To recognize soldier based on uniform like it was possible in previous games? Silly request right?

Gears Of War Style - Two very different looking teams and you can customize your character for each. Skins would still apply.

Yeah, what could really work is, say, in the Breakaway map, in the ice, there could be like supports added that can be destroyed and cause a landslide

Maybe collapsible bridge to the oil rig by destroying pylons the same way you did in that one border map in BF3 I think Edit: Caspian Border

they have mentioned it so many times that they really can't do that because of the 128 player matches. They had to choose between destruction and player capacity. What ever was the "right" decision doesn't matter because they picked theirs. 128 player server capacity was their game direction. Maybe the other BF project could have the long waited destruction.

Wow, the tornado 🌪️ traces are actually pretty brilliant.

I feel like they were hinting at that at the start of the video

Story telling is coming back but not so sure for this one.

Idk operations mode usually dies pretty early on

you got BF1942 for that

how about more shipping containers instead

@@julienm5880 BF1942 has neither of those

They hyped up tornadoes and then they basically do nothing and have no effect on the battlefield at all. They should have done unique weather for each map that actually changed it. Tsunami for one, earthquake for one that knocks buildings over. Battlefield 4 wiped the floor with BF1, BF5 and BF2042 in terms of dynamic player instigated map changes. It was awesome.

Exactly. Miss it.

I hope we get PARACEL STORM version

@Botardo87 I just found the image of a blue cube in Stockholm and... yeah, that's probably gonna be it. I hope there will be a new above ground area though, cuz vehicle players are getting completely shafted if it's 100% infantry only.

@@DeadSpacedOut It would be nice to get a CQB map too.

Yeah i neeeeed metro and i will play the game forever

@@Dukestona Well, you might be in luck, it looks like Season 3's Map will be a a new Version of Operation Metro, set in Stockholm Sweden. Temporyal, a big BF Leaker showed a picture of a Blue Cube and DICE are confirming the Map will be set in Sweden, in Stockholm there is a very artful and beautiful display of art in their Metro Station, which has a Blue Cube. Probably not a coincidence at all, sooo... New Metro! But keep expectations tempered just in case.

@@DeadSpacedOut thanks for this nice info buddy

@@Dukestona no problem chief, hope Season 3 is a banger!

Ya'll see the trailer?! IT LOOKS SICK AF!!!!

Lol remembers the launch trailer. This game is embarrassing.

@@DNDaMD Not anymore It is a big turnaround. They need to do more certainly but at least they are doing their work now with an honest heart

Just like your mom 😏

@@falconlewitteducation4941 *Hears female narrator and says “honest hearts”* loooooooool. It’s AMAZING what people can APPEAR to be doing when they can potentially be threatened with a lawsuit. This was nothing more than a cash grab gone wrong and a desperate attempt to avoid getting sued

@@AM-oj5xl EA not gonna be sued, lol

Yeah their idea from round to round is the worst

And standard TDM & FFA modes should always be available / easy to launch

@@csc-photo right

All of this is a lesson, stop releasing games unfinished!!!!!!

For real I wanna play bad company 2 and bf3 I don't know why those were only in rotation when the game launched

It's the biggest map in the game aint it? I'm sure they are going to bring everything closer to the city as they did with these map changes. Still disappointed by the lack of destruction...

Yeah, I thought we'd get Discarded for Season 3, but I guess Season 4 will have a big Rework of Discarded and then Hourglass, I hope that Map is similar to that Shop Bundle Image of it... I'd love to see toppled buildings in the sand featuring very CQC areas, as well as very open areas and overall, just a very different layout.

@@DeadSpacedOut I hope they keep the A sector stadium with the changes and just do some good work with tightening everything up and really adding to the dead open areas.

@@anthonyosorio212 yep! Hopefully they do a good job!

@@MurdaFPS I like the idea of the Stadium but idk that it could be made to be CQC enough, I guess we'll just have to see.

They confirmed only 1 map per season not sure if that includes re worked maps.

If that was the case, I would actually buy like 50 dollars of Boins, just to celebrate.

@@DeadSpacedOut If they did I would actually buy the game.

@@stormer9952 Yeah well I already owned the game.

Portal maps would be a huge win. So many good maps from the past. Don't have to reinvent the wheel.

I agree! More destruction would be cool but could the servers handle and maintain that? 🤔

@@joelrobertson3130 I belive in the 64 player setting the answer is yes (just think how good we had it in BFV already), whereas the 128 player servers are what got us in this mess in the first place.

@@AlligatorArndt big facts

Because higher ups wanted to make money sooner, thats how it is with every game now a days.

Did you see customizable squads, with the ability to join or create one? How about joining a friend through the friends list? How about larger squad sizes for 128 player mode? What still only 4 random asses where you are the only one playing the obj while your team sits in spawn in AA or tanks or god forbid, prone sniping....

@@adroxorz ???

@@adroxorz battlefield has always had people backline sniping and sitting in spawns with vehichles

@@bodieleblanc2577 Exactly. You can NEVER force a player to perform a role on the Battlefield. Medics not reviving, supports not throwing ammo, recons sitting in spawn, etc. all nothing new to the series.

@@pathlessbullet7557 so then what was the point of adding it? It doesn't just pertain to 2042

hardly

well not, is the same soldiers, they just add a name to classify them.

@SlamScum Well if you play it on steam you'll need to install origin/ea desktop so it is kind of obvious that it's on origin/ea desktop as well

dice studio is swedish they told the map will be CLOSE TO THEIR HEARTS next map is close to the dice studio?

@@Itsshaunbewarned i think they meant it will be in Sweden because it's something that's close to their hearts and they're a Swedish based studio, not that it will be right near their headquarters. Might be wrong though

@@conahscreations i mean the area around the dice HQ in sweden is very open so maybe its in a metro tunnel nearby?

Pathetic you said

There are some goods on xbox website

hopefully they make squads great again, and leader could call out an ac-130

@@mandu0114 can you link me?

@@ECfuckingW22 i said i want goods, not bads :(

We don't need very customizable soldiers. The maps, classes and teams should set the uniforms.

Still is that bf a mess from the vehicle balance to the weapons

@@itsjuztt.alightskin many battlefields were a glitchy mess when they released

@@itsjuztt.alightskin I criticized the bad enough. It's time to appreciate the good things and the fact, the devs are actively working on making it better.

@@itsjuztt.alightskin both are being worked on

Except the first 12 months of post release were dedicated to fixing the game. 😡🤬😡

@@MajPickles At least they didn't give up 2042 just like Battlefield V

Yeah maybe after 4 years it might be a working game with the same amount of content we used to get within 12 months.

@@neilpearson26 yep! Pretty much. So Sonje. Please stop complimenting DICE like they've done us a favour. We spent alot of money to buy this game

@@sonje2121 true. That was so frustrating. The game started actually getting good! Then they called time on development to concentrate on BFV

5,1? 🤡

ah yes Verdun in 2042

enjoy the slow drip ,this game is dead ,just a bot scape now

@@chuy3840 it’s not too late, it’s never too late.

@@chuy3840 Some BF games had a bad launch too and they always improve it and they did. BF4 had also a very bad launch with lots of bugs and unplayable on multiplayer for a long time and almost a year later, it plays very good. It's never too late.

Glad to see someone who can actually appreciate the efforts gone into improving the game...its usually just trolls saying the games dead even though they haven't played in 8 months and don't want to admit it's pretty decent...

@@chuy3840 Always negative.

The campaign would have been horrible. I do not want to see what else the team who made this game can do. Everyone who made the previous games is gone, I hope this is the last BF ever

Games can be online only. But the bar has to be high on initial launch.

not even the sand can hide all the empty buildings: playing in a map without anything but a few white walls would be awesome for a campaign

Lmao nope

i hope so... but no :D ...

Still too soon for a Battlefield 1 remake. It would be great but now the game still looks good xD

@@carlosdiazsanchez19 Looks better tbh 🤣

Still wont be CLASSES with those goofy specialists

You'll get one map and a couple of guns. A quarter of a dlc is all Dice can mange every 3 months now apparently

A five man squad would be nice, but my hopes aren't high.

Players should give it a second try ,,, its amazing more and more

Same here, Im impressed with what they are doing to the game going forward now.

Don't lie. The game still lacks atmosphere and still boring.

@@TheRabidRaccoon yeah this is trash compared to the og bf games like bf 3 and 4

@@TheRabidRaccoon for you and stop saying that he is lying even do he giving his opinion

@@TheRabidRaccoon compared to how boring it was at launch, it is much better. I wouldn’t say it is boring now, I’m having a ton of fun, but I will say there is still room for improvement. In short there just aren’t enough vehicles imo to make it feel like a real BF game, also they need to bring back squad support items like mortar strikes. We need a bit more chaos and explosions. They’re too focused on infantry and for a BF game that’s the wrong focus, especially with large maps, that’s what makes it feel boring, but again, it’s much better and less boring than it was.

Game is still in beta form. I will give it a try when its done.

People make mistakes, an almost 20 year BF developer team should not make mistakes. Especially ones that fans have clearly spoken about from game to game. They threw this game away for a quick buck and they won't be able to come back from this imo.

@@milkylopez9146 No it isn't, lmfao.

@@Agell What you laughing at? That you like a trash game?

@@milkylopez9146 I'm laughing at you, you clown.

Year 1 4 Seasons as described by the Year 1 Pass. Year 2 will probably be another 4.

Cheaper to move stuff around in an existing map. Costs alot more to make a new map and it might suck also.
