A new map, but it's basically just The Stadium but reworked
A new map, but it's using assests from Africa Harbour
Stealth Bombers, but wont be till much later
Palestine colours for skins?

Only thing I'll say it's good that they are still supporting the game. It's been a while since it launched.

I haven't played it for a long while though.

It's a great game although in the last 3 months since I finished the battlepass I've been playing BF4. Last night I was playing BF1 and had tonnes of fun

Looking forward to getting back playing 2042 with the new season. I was a bit burnt out after season 5, didn't play loads of season 6 and then took a break after that.

I wonder if we'll get this season and then one further season to coincide with an announcement of the next game.

Same, my buddy and I play this most nights. One or two rounds takes around 90 mins if you get a good balanced server.

Awesome level and yes a balanced game takes 40 odd minutes

I'm glad they plugged the hole where people would appear out of the wall and kill you! I might have done this myself a couple of times lol.

some of them weapons (shotguns) and grenades are just unreal.

Is the Redacted map free or paid DLC?

Free. Everything (new weapons, maps, specialists, equipment) is free in 2042 outside of cosmetics that you get with the battle pass.

Yeah, not really feeling it after a few rounds of conquest on it. Has anyone tried it for Breakthrough? Does it play better there?

I prefer breakthrough but it’s still not great

Playing this at 4k has made me actually enjoy this game more than I thought. I've been having issues though where I think I'm joining a game and it just boots me back to the lobby a lot though. Not bothered to find out the reasons why, as I'm a casual player.

I can finally say without question though the jump up to 4K from 1440p has helped me in game, can pick out enemies far easier than before, giving me the upper hand from mid range a lot of the time.

Will play this a lot over the coming weekend just to pass final judgement on whether it'll be in my gaming revival list.

Map is alright, had some fun playing a couple of rounds of conquest but it really looks and feels like a COD Ground war map

 

[XPE]

New map is horrible if defending on breakthrough (not tried conquest) , steam rolled every time on that map.

 

[RevBillyG]

Played 3 rounds of conquest on the new map last night. So far I like it. Plenty of close quarter action.

 

[rumple9]

2042 is really good now dunno why so many people complain. Just wish they would put in a proper server browser now

 

[rumple9]

Free weekend on Steam if anyone interested and 85%off

Nice thank you.
