*** The Official Battlefield 2042 thread***

Ouch Tom Henderson says performance in 2042 is 70% lower than BFV

so for example if you had 120fps at 1440p max settings in BFV, you'll have 40fps at 1440p in 2042 using the same system

No surprise the youtube taint licking brigade get early access. He feels "blessed" to play it....jesus christ.

Honestly the vids arent worth watching, he hasn't a clue what hes doing.

I'm hoping for decent FPS, games like this are the whole reason I went all in with a 5950x, 32GB RAM and a 3080.

It doesn't even have raytracing which is disappointing after V, why is it so demanding I wonder.

Ray Tracing is over rated and its bad for Graphics cards ! its abit like 3D TVs ! We don't need them..... from what I have seen this game has the best Graphics for this type of game and looks amazing.

Less than 6 hours until this kicks off. I'm powering through loads of work this morning and need to get home and actually preorder if I want early access. I was planning on just using the public days, but things have shifted around this week.

Cautiously excited at this point.

Nah - the implementations of ray tracing so far are pretty meh but ray tracing itself when done properly is the next thing and is capable of far more than what we've seen from the token effects slapped in alongside traditional rendering techniques.

Unknown error when trying to connect to a match

I get to the QR code which tells me (EA Play Pro member) to pre-order...or be an EA Play member.

GG Dice - ha, somethings never change.

 

[Born_2_Kill_83]

Still can't get on, will have to try again at dinner, "working from home" need to do some "work".

 

[RussZS]

I play with about 60 other guys and everyone who has EA Play Pro can't get past the QR code, but anyone who pre ordered managed to get in

 

[Adam_101]

Managed to get in, but so many odd bugs

 

[RussZS]

On the stream I'm watching, there's lots of people floating and people stuck in the ground etc - and this is after another month!

Come on haters, now is your turn to tip in and shine even though you haven't played yet....

 

[Josh]

Seems to be an issue with anyone using the EA Play subscription model.

Lol, no worries back to bed and I'll try again later.

 

[ThundyCat]

Origin is just fine

Still can't get on, will have to try again at dinner, "working from home" need to do some "work".

Slacker.......calls your boss.

 

[xb8browney]

I can get on with the EA red beta icon but not via Origin
