R.I.P Battlefield 2042

Battlefield 2042 has been announced that the next update will be the last.
I have been a follower of this franchise since Battlefield 1942, I played Vietnam, Modern combat, Heroes and minor titles like P4F without fail, but 2042 was the only title I did not play.
So, 2042, which started later than Enlisted, died before Enlisted.

And Enlisted has survived all these years with the community saying it is dying, dying, dying…
When will it die?
My guess is that the game will live another 10 years.
Perhaps it will land again on Steam with a compelling PVE mode… and become a universally played long-lived title like WT!!
This game does not die like a zombie!

Who would have thought :expressionless: :expressionless: :expressionless: :expressionless:

farrrrk you 2042…now…back to “battlefield” please

Im still going to be very salty because I had to wait a long time for the WW 2 reboot to come around…and they barely did much with it…probably have to wait another 20 years for a WW2 crack (if they even get their shit together and get the next one right)

Battlefield 3 ~ Battlefield 1 was the golden age for me.
And Battlefield 5 was a game that could have been really good. In fact, there were countless moments that felt like gems to play. But EA steered the ship wrong so many times, it went astray, and then they abandoned the game. And 2042 suffered the same fate.
Enlisted still seems to have its share of challenges, big and small, but at least Darkflow’s dedication to updating it reassures me.
Well, I sometimes wonder if their efforts are directed at adding zombies to the game instead of solving neglected bugs…but the zombie mode was fun, so I guess it’s okay.

I played Batelfield 1 for many hours. I even have an Easter Egg revolver. But batelfield 5 killed all my faith in the good. 2042 is just as miserable. No, it’s even more miserable. I hope EA closes, they will become bankrupt, every single one of them will be mired in debt. For all those favorite games they killed.

This is where, as a gamer, I have changed. Battlfield is too eager to move onto the next battlefield. I loved BF 1942, BF 2,3,4,1,5…yes even 5…they had so many good things they they didnt pursue.

these days, I want a game like Warthunder that just keeps going and going and going. Forever added too and you can keep coming back,

My hope for enlisted.

Battlefield is lucky to last 2 years now before developmant is canned, and all that progress and time spent, is no longer relevant

  1. Now that was something. attack with flying Titans and huge mechs, or DROP PODS LIKE WARHAMMER 40k!

I found all battlefields after that one, Vietnam and ofc original 1942 & 2, very bland.

that was a cool one too. and of course the Bad companys aswell that I forgot about.

Vietnam was okay…I did enjoy the phantom and napalm.

Battlefiled 1 was probably my favourite after BF 2…and BF 5 “could” have been my favourite.

With the current state of the industry, it’s better not to remaster it.

That’s what they get for bailing on BFV before even working on the Eastern Front. Good riddance to that trash.

Game had a lot of potential, tank on tank fights were among my favorites in the franchise, if they would expand on it but nah they had to cut it short and make crappy sequel…

IMO BF 1 and BF 5 really nailed the fun vehicle and Air combat.

I dont think Ive ever had as much fun as I did in a panzer 38t full of friends in BF 5

and the Arcade air combat in BF 1 and 5 was just adrenaline pumping.

They had the traction for it after the Pacific was released. Straight idiot IQ level moves. It seems familiar as well…

After Enlisted adds Medics i feel like every update diss battlefield more and more…

But Battlefield have 1 big plus which Enlisted have not.
The Melee Animations are the best i’ve seen
