I think I like playing shitty games!

Actually truth is, I thought I'd be playing New World and this would be my downtime game. I thought there's no way they could fuck Battlefield over this much. I thought I'd be happy to just get something close to BF4.

But alas, I don't play too many games these days and nothing else tickles my fancy. So I'm just making the best of a bad situation.

We live in such a clown world now where people are literally quest givers at this point. Straight NPCs who drone "the message" from on high and constantly short curcuit their own morals and sense of what feels right just to be part of the swarm.

Its sad really. We are literally 5 years away from actually playing Fallout in real life.

Ars totally shit on it, continuing a tradition of having largely honest game reviews.
Hey Mist Mist , what's your plan for the apocalypse? Don't you work in IT? Have any post-collapse skillsets that I can highlight to my bunker buddies? I guess a post-menopausal vagina would be convenient since the bunker doesn't have any stairs.

Being immersed in your doom & gloom post-collapse sounds kinda comforting.

like a battered wife, I've come crawling back.
The game still shits me and none of my complaints have gone away but it's still the closest to the sort of fps I want to play.
I did duck back into bf4 and bfv, but they got old fast since I'd already played them to death.
Hopefully the patch fixes the grossest part of the game, like the fleet of hovercrafts dominating every map.

Hovercraft 2042 is unplayable for me.

Even if you get into a "good" game, eventually people end up resorting to mass hovercrafts because its the easiest way to win and rack up points/take and deny areas. I only play Portal, 1942 and am enjoying it a lot.

Apparently the lead designer for BF2042 came from Candy Crush. It all makes sense now. 😑



Edit, Update is Live. Should auto update from Origin.

My friend plays on Xbox and says he doesn’t get the hate. He says it runs fine? Is that true is it That much better on console? I got a feeling he’s full of shit.
He's not wrong. My friend I was giving endless shit to from the posts here looks at me like I'm retarded.

“ Thank you for putting some faith in me, I hope I didn’t disappoint.”

Oh trust me. You didn’t pal. Where are you going next? Because of you, I haven’t laughed this hard since Eddie Murphy was in his prime!

Quick update about the changes to the AR's. They perform much better. You can actually hit your target now. Good improvement.

Now, they just need to give us the traditional legacy (as they put it) Battlefield things we've come to expect.

I hope server browser is high up their list.
The lack of variety from the small map list seems accentuated by always playing the same couple of maps.
So sick of Kaleidoscope, it's pure aids on breakthrough. How that made it through any design stage let alone testing is mind boggling, but sadly all too believable.

They need to bring back different player count maps too.
