    Battlefield 2042 includes all the features that have contributed to making Battlefield one of the most popular first-person shooting video game series. It offers you massive battles where you can put your tactical skills, aim, and reaction times to the test against many players, with realistic scenarios that you can destroy as you please and a unique approach to the action.



    Battlefield 2042 marks the return to the iconic all-out warfare of the Battlefield franchise. It is set in 2042 during a major conflict between the USA and Russia. This first-person shooter features futuristic weapons, gadgets like deployable turrets and drones, and vehicles usable by the players. The game includes a new "Plus" system, which allows players to customize their weapons on the spot. Battlefield 2042 includes a wide variety of scenarios, all of them featuring destructible environments and dynamic weather with effects like sandstorms and tornadoes that will affect visibility or lift players, for instance. 



    The game features several gameplay modes and has doubled the player count from previous games in the series. Conquest and Breakthrough offer massive battles and a unique experience for up to 128 players on PC and next-gen consoles, and 64 players on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. At the same time, those that want to enjoy a new type of gameplay will find themselves at home with Hazard Zone, a modern take on squad-based multiplayer.



     





     



    Conquest features all-out battles in huge maps that have been specifically designed for this. The action is divided into "clusters" of various kinds where two factions combat against each other to capture control points; once the control points in a sector are captured, the faction will control said sector.



    Breakthrough sees the return of two teams, Attackers and Defenders in maps where one team must try to capture another team's control points. The defending team must prevent that at all costs. A vast battlefield allows for more tactical choices through each game.



    Both modes will be playable across seven different maps that will take players to a variety of locations all over the world, including South Korea, Singapore, French Guiana, India, Egypt, and Antarctica. Each of them will feature different objectives and scenarios, ranging from controlling an important network hub or a technology center to recovering stolen nuclear assets.



    Battlefield Portal adds even more possibilities to the game with community-created game modes and endless options to customize weapons, gear, rules, and more in this creative sandbox mode. Replay classic experiences with select content from Battlefield 1942 (Battle of the Bulge and El Alamein), Battlefield 3 (Caspian Border and Noshahr Canals), and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (Africa Harbor and Valparaiso), or leverage the modern content from the world of Battlefield 2042 to discover, create, and share something completely new.



    Battlefield 2042 overhauls the class system by adding ten different "specialists" at launch, with a new one released each season and four seasons per year. They will use various gadgets in combat to perform specific roles and add another layer of strategic complexity to the game.



    Some good examples of these include the following:



     





     



    Kimble "Irish" Graves uses the DCS Deployable Cover to protect his allies, and his APS-36 Shootdown Sentinel can take down enemy explosive projectiles before they can cause any harm.



     





     



    Wikus "Casper" Van Daele. This South African operator specializes in reconnaissance with an OV-P Recon Drone and is able to detect people sneaking nearby with a movement sensor.



     





     



    Webster Mackay is a nimble Canadian operator specialized in assaults and able to break in from unexpected positions thanks to his grappling hook.



     





     



    Maria Falck is a German operator whose S21 Syrette Pistol allows her to treat injured allies and revive them to full health from a distance.



     





     



    Pyotr "Boris" Guskovsky is a Russian engineer that can deploy an SG-36 Sentry Gun and boost its performance when he is close.



    Players can also take part in seasonal events with each season introducing new content such as maps, weapons, gadgets, vehicles, and more. Battlefield 2042 offers an exciting experience for both veteran Battlefield fans as well as newcomers alike with its expansive maps, intense battles, cutting-edge arsenal of weapons and vehicles, seasonal updates, and much more!

    I don't have as many problems with this game as most of the other fan base. But I can agree that this is one of the worst Battlefields ever made. Its impossible to hit anyone outside of 50 meters unless you have a sniper rifle. The weapon bloom is ridiculous and I feel like I could be more accurate than some of these "specialists" The maps are especially bad since they all are wide open and huge. So again with weapons that cant kill outside of 50 meters, this makes for horrible gameplay.

    After returning to Battlefield 5 after playing 2042 I have to say that 2042 really doesn't look nice, neither does it have a lot of atmosfear like previeous titles tbh. The performance also really sucks very much.

    Not my game type, but a must have game, I think. This have would be the definitive Multi FPS experience, but there are too much bugs, I read. I hope will resolve

    Directly from the Battlefield 4, Battlefield 2042 is the most powerfull candidate among online war based shooters: I think it will be the best of 2021.

    I felt hyped at the beginning but idk... The game is beautiful, well made. But there are some bugs (which is not anormal for a beta) and it looks like old BF but with some changes. But I must admit that the feeling of weapons, vehicles (especially helicopters) is just great. In short, good game but it isn't a revolution, it is pretty classic.

    J'avais beaucoup aimer le jeux lors de la beta. Mais je n'ai pas pu l'acheter. Après tout les retour négatifs du jeux lors de sa sortie, je suis un peu content de ne pas l'avoir acheté
    I really liked the game during the beta. But I couldn't buy it. After all the negative feedback of the game at the time of its release, I'm a bit glad I didn't buy it

    Pour le coup, ça a été ma déception de 2021, j'avais eu beaucoup d'espoirs et je pense que ça m'a desservi. Cela dit le jeu est pas non plus mauvais mais en l'état, mieux vaut passer son chemin
    For the time being, it was my disappointment of 2021, I had a lot of hopes and I think that it did me a disservice. That said, the game is not bad either, but as it is, it's better to skip it

    J'espère que les patchs seront à la hauteur pour que le jeu ne soit pas désert dès la première année et que l'on puisse passer de très belles années encore sur les battlefield
    I hope that the patches will be up to the task so that the game will not be deserted from the first year and that we can spend many more beautiful years on the battlefield
