DICE Asking Fans to Nominate Battlefield 2042 for "Labor of Love" Category in Steam Awards

DICE is asking gamers to vote in Battlefield 2042 into the Steam Awards in the "Labor of Love" category.

Inverno164d ago

There is no love, you're only fixing what you broke and keeping people hooked til the next disappointing BF announcement.

labor of love after divorce

jznrpg164d ago

Strange to ask for nominations to begin with but the category is totally wrong. If there’s a comeback award maybe but they would probably lose that as well

isarai164d ago

No.

And to reiterate.

Hell no.

PitbullMonster164d ago

The last time I played Bf2042 80% of the lobbys were Bots.

recoctimocassirnff164d ago

I had a similar experience.

I played it a few months back, and as a BF vet, they have indeed fixed it, but unfortunately, there was a very major problem that should NOT have been overlocked.

In order to actually find a lobby full of humans I had to check cross platform play. Which, for me, is preferred anyway, because I love seeking out xbone players and giving them a hard time. The issue was it also lumped you in with PC players and going against kb/m players is just a slaughter.

Would have been great to have an option for console only servers, a very very obvious things, but alas, that was irritatingly overlooked.

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.

GoodGuy0942d 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.

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.

I want them to do a new bad company instead

DustMan40d 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.

Kornholic41d ago

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

BISHOP-BRASIL41d ago

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

Kornholic41d 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?

jznrpg41d 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

badboyz0941d ago

who would've thought🤷‍♀️

Yi-Long41d ago (Edited 41d 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.
