They should not take it so seriously, it's good for the game, the game is looking amazing, can't wait to play -- decided to pre-order after seeing how good it looks...

If you don't expect Beta footage to leak by now, they you really have no business doing a beta.... Fans get to excited about a game to follow stupid NDA rules... And Like I said nothing to worry about here, all that beta did was get me super pumped for the game...

It looks better then I thought it was going to look, really excited now... DICE and EA are sitting on a home run with this one... this is what the fans have wanted...

The Beta I saw with the helicopter and the planes flying all around looked awesome, brought back Bad Company 2 feel.. I can't wait to play this.. This one is going to do numbers... So happy to see us getting back to the type of Battlefield we all know and love....

I can't wait to play....

XiNatsuDragnel999d ago

For me they were heroes that we didn't know we needed tbh.

PhillyDillyDee999d ago

I can appreciate your excitement but DICE really did us dirty w BFV. They couldve turned the game around but decided to just abandon it. Personally, they dont deserve the benefit of the doubt headed into 2042. I’ll play it when it hits gamepass.

@ PhillyDillyDee

I can't argue with that, they really did do us dirty.... -But what else is there to play, I'm sure as hell not touching that COD Vanguard or whatever it's called... I need to get back to the battlefield, I'm just hoping it's good...

fingers crossed...

PhillyDillyDee998d ago

@Crazyglues

I hope so too. I really do love battlefield. Some of my most memorable gaming sessions were spent w a squad of my buddies in BC2, BF3-4 and BF1. But I spent over $100 on BFV for the game and some cosmetics once they started to show signs of life with the pacific content only for them to just cut and run. I really wanted a new WW2 battlefield that would stand the test of time. Maybe the portal mode will be supported with more and more WW2 assets and we can all have our cake.

Always wondered why people preorder given…history

dbcoops998d ago

After Cyberpunk I decided to never pre-order anything ever again.

DJStotty998d ago

If you are incapable of following any NDA, then do not sign up, it is a legally binding agreement, and developers and publishers are well within their rights to take whatever action necessary.

"you get a strike on your channel"

funny, lots of ppl are uploading like crazy, on new empty channels with no other videos on them ha.

1nsomniac998d ago

Take one guess why they’re making threats.

Knightofelemia998d ago

Does anybody even read the fine print when it pops up on the screen no most people scroll down until the accept part lights up and away they play. This is why Turtle Rock and WB are cool they didn't give a shit if you streamed the beta of B4B they wanted you to have fun with the beta. But this is EA they like to suck the fun out of the room you knew it was going to get streamed when you released the beta. I know some beta and demos that are streamed have an NDA where the streamer can only show certain bits and pieces of the demo or beta. EA striking shit down flagging accounts no wonder why people hate EA. I say open the flood gates and fully open the beta and promote people to have fun with BF.

X-23997d ago

It's their product, they can do whatever they want with it.
As far as I know it's a beta that you had to register for to participate in not pay out of pocket and even still most of those people won't even waste time giving their feedback for the game, however if the game releases in a semi-busted state you'll never hear the end of it.
Yes, lets ignore the NDA and then complain that there are potential consequences for your actions once you get caught up.
Stop.
All that aside game looks good, but I won't be pre-ordering at this point there is no value to be had from pre-ordering, you're just giving them your money early now and that's about it.

Another? ANOTHER?

Is he honestly trying to make out like the last Battlefield was a huge success, not just as a game but as a live service game? I'm sure these guys live in their own echo chambers, they are so far removed from reality or they just like talking out of their arse trying to rewrite history.

Also why say such a tone deaf statement when you know the state of live service games at the minute and how many gamers feel about them. Bigging up the next BF game as live service does not give me any excitement or hype.

''is building ‘another tremendous LIE service’''

just_looken1d 14h ago

This is nothing too new
https://www.eurogamer.net/e...

They had plans of a universe of live service games

Also these studios made 2042 there is no new massive team its the same team
https://www.eurogamer.net/t...

Well same team minus the seattle boys that were canned
https://gamerant.com/ea-bat...

This is all again same news different year but it seems very few remember what happened before covid.

Walalon22h ago

At least they put car freshner trees up their asses to think smelling their own farts smells good at this point to be so out of touch.

RaidenBlack2d ago

Just make another Battlefield 2 ... or BadCompany 3 ... EA

XiNatsuDragnel2d ago

Bad company 3 instead of live service bs

An Update on Battlefield 2042 and Welcoming Motive Studio to the Team

EA:

While we’ve enjoyed and are proud of creating these seasons of additional content for Battlefield 2042, it is now necessary for us to turn from the present to the future. What this ultimately means is that Season 7 will serve as the final season for Battlefield 2042. After Season 7 concludes, we will continue to support the game with new in-game challenges, events, modes, and of course, ongoing maintenance, but we are moving away from delivering official seasons.

Streamer Claims DICE Paid Over 60 Content Creators for Battlefield 2042 Feedback, Then Ignored It

Streamer Shroud says that DICE paid 60 to a hundred content creators to help develop Battlefield 2042, but ignored every single advice.

GoodGuy0944d ago

No wonder the game ended up the way it did
What they should've done was ask BF fans. Most general content creators typically go for the trend and the top creators stream games like LOL, fortnite, dota, gtaV, battle royale etc.

_SilverHawk_43d ago

A lot of times people want a game to be something else and I'd probably guess a lot of people wanted call of duty or a lot of it's features.

Bf2042 is amazing now but was not so much at launch. A lot of improvements made the game an amazing game with its own identity. I'm hoping the new battlefield game coming next year improves upon everything in bf2042 and is more akin to bf3 and bf4.

Gamingsince198143d ago

I want them to do a new bad company instead

DustMan42d ago

A ton of people have written the game off now. Which is unfortunate because I find it to be one of the best multiplayer shooters available now. I've been aware that a Battlefield game has not launched in a good condition since....I don't remember. So I never played at launch due to the horror stories, but it seems to have pulled a Battlefield 4 and really turned itself around. Good stuff. Love getting 4 kills on an apc with a well placed RPG, or Stinger to a loaded chopper lol. No other game has given me that kind of joy. lol.

Kornholic43d ago

To be fair, I would not listen to content creators/influencers either.

BISHOP-BRASIL43d ago

Look, I wouldn't pee on an influencer if they were on fire, but why pay for their feedback only to ignore it?

Kornholic43d ago

I don't know. Maybe they thought it was a good idea at first but eventually found out that it was best to ignore influencers' opinions?

jznrpg43d ago

I’ll give some advice and take money for it. You can use it or not use it just make sure to pay me

badboyz0943d ago

who would've thought🤷‍♀️

Yi-Long43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

Battlefield fans just want Battlefield to be Battlefield. Which means a focus on Conquest-mode (5/6 flags), some gorgeous and fun maps to play on, 4 balanced classes, and that's it.

The suits keep wanting to turn Battlefield into everything else BUT Battlefield, so first they wanted BF to be more like Call of Duty, so they copied a bunch of stuff from CoD. Then they wanted to take advantage of the Battle Royale stuff, so they went after that crowd. Then they saw the heroes stuff in Overwatch and so they brought in specialists. Etc.

Guys, we just want Battlefield. Not every games has to be everything to all people. Specialize in what makes (made) your series great, which is large(r) maps (appropriate size for the amount of players, which IMO should be 24-32 max, so not just big for bragging brights), integrating vehicle-combat, and just allowing the freedom and flow which made those matches in older Battlefield games so special at times.
