It’s 3am in Russia. BSG is having a good time partying and Nikita accidentally spilled Kvass and Vodka over the servers. While being drunk, laughing and making jokes they try to clean up the mess right now.

Fuck me i would not want to mix fermented tea bread thing and vodka in my stomach, that sounds like hell

Hahahaha that is EXACTLY what I was thinking (did)

its buggy asf to tho plus portals is the best thing on there rn imo

WarlordWossman•

it's funny how a full BF2 or BF3 remake would have probably been more exciting than the specialist shit

11
Thismessishers•

I have EA play through game pass so I had the free trial. It's boggling how good portal looks and feels to the originals with some minor changes. Then there's the main game modes which are just chaotic feeling in a bad way. You barely get revived, people running around not pushing/defending objectives, and the gun play just feels off. Not to mention the lack of weapons in 2042 is disappointing, i know they're banking on their seasons to add content but shit I'd like more rifle options than just an AK and Sig Sauer.

Also how are you going to add hazard zone and not include voip at launch? You know, a squad focused game mode...

MiguelCC1•

Yeah tell me about it i was excited to start it up only to see a barebones menu & customization screen for weapons i understand its early access but that shouldn't mean literally just the game modes, at that point why pay for EA? Plus i find myself on portals heavy instead of the shit show 2042 is online atm

1
platinums99VEPR•

yeah, I would only be buying it for Portals mode, otherwise its just more of the same - no innovation in the main game (own bf3, bf4 was the last one i bought)

1
MouriceCheeks•

it would make 10x more sense to ddos cod servers so yea probably not

8
_Tachyonic_•

Not as easy though

1
icewind_•

This would be a level of competence EA is far frem

I've always been. Bf diehard. Since bf2. And god damn is it trash. Bf sucked since bf3

Jerjoesy•

Honestly, what if they paid BSG to shut it down for day one?

2
_Tachyonic_•

Could make sense... especially thinking that the servers went back online mysteriously at exactly midnight eastern time

2

Ya'll really grasping at anything arent you lol.

Humans have a skill to make links and create stories 😅 so much we can even create memories that aren't true. Somehow thats how we've managed to survive

1
scavlootsalot•

They would never do that, that's such a Russian thing to do.

Wait what?

1
Cubanned•

Except people can’t even play Battlefield with these garbage ass errors.

2
Funkycold6•

Bf2042 has no scoreboard and has no record keeping of your ingame stats. I refunded the game because of these 2 things

2
SteinhoffAK-74M•

Tbf I was playing 2042 and was just thinking how much I’d rather be playing Tarkov the whole time

2
scavlootsalot•

It looks so arcade, I think Tarkov has ruined all other fps for ever..
