Actually depressing how little they care about attention to detail. INB4 one of the normans comes in to explain that most of those things are just visual and don't affect overall gameplay.
Careful say it 3 times and tombstone will be in to defend the game and haunt your dreams.

stopped playing a good while back
bad maps, no cover etc, huge empty spaces
not enough stuff - weapons / vehicles etc
don't like the operator thing instead of classes
don't like the setting either
graphics not even very good
meh out of 10

so what he's saying is BF isn't a AAA title any more but a budget cash in.
None of these things likely add "value" to the game it's just extra costs with no pay offs.
strip it all out if it's not a micro transaction/crypto/NFT or a milker we don't want it
4 is pretty active.
70% of the server just crashed, three of my team mates, replaced by all [AI]. Then I crashed
Yep, the game has people thinking their system is unstable when in fact, it's just a mess.
Yup pretty much same with me, except I was the first to refund it. Definitely not worth the £70 I had initially paid out for it.
To me it just didn't feel like a Battlefield game, I'd rather just continue playing Battlefield 3/4.

Just played a round on BF3, was very fun.
It's quite funny reading the reviews for BF4 at launch, for a game that people now consider to be one of the absolute best.
This one especially:
'I have been playing Battlefield games since Battlefield 2 and have liked every one of them, but this, this is so dumbed down its not funny. Nothing feels precise, movement just feels "off" and the unbelievable amount of bugs and crashes is just amazing. Why release a game that OBVIOUSLY isn't finished!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING DICE!!!'

You could basically copy that review, slap it in this thread and you'd have lots of people quoting it saying 'yeah spot on'.
There is lot of legitimate criticism of 2042, but that criticism is being easily drowned right now in the whole '2042 so bad, am i right or what' echo chamber.

People who've followed the franchise would agree that BF4 was a mess at launch, however, the fundamentals were absolutely there for a good game.
When you watch that video @DEL 707 posted above, you can see they no longer give one winnet of a **** and the game is lightyears away from being one of the best.

Review was spot on. BF4 needed several updates to fix netcode and performance and bugs.
2042 is worse, because even after fixing the technical side, gameplay is still bad.
