    Not even worth it at that price imo.

    It's a buggy mess with very little content.

  • +20

    It is not OP's fault, but the game is really shit and this coming from a guy who pre-ordered Battlefield 2042 and paid almost the full price. Never again. lol.

    • +1

      Sorry to hear mate but thanks for the support! It’s okay I had their experience with Cyberpunk…

      • I can forgive Cyberpunk somewhat as it's a brand new, big & complex open world game.
        But BF2042 being a sequel and a bloody FPS is just unforgivable.

        • How can you forgive Cyberpunk when it's not only just the bugs that crippled the game but all the cut content they promised.

          Even on consoles the game couldn't run and you're willing to forgive that?

    • same

      thankfully asked & received a refund from EA

      • Did you buy directly from EA?

        • yep - digital copy on my account

          refund received within a day (Paypal)

    • +2

      Never pre-order! EA made a huge amount of money off this game from pre-orders alone, so gives them little incentive to make a decent game.

    • +2

      I actually pre ordered on steam, I played 39 hours the week of release noticed all the missing content, the missing co-op, getting xp against bots that was promised etc so I put in a refund request, very nicely explained the situation and how the game was a buggy mess with missing promised content that was supposed to be available on launch and believe it or not steam refund me no questions asked after 39 hours play time.

      Just shows the consumer is getting taken for a ride and it's painful watching the fanbois defend this mess on Facebook

  • +7

    It's a pretty shit game. Everyone that I know who's played it has refunded it. You may as well play halo infinite for $1 instead

    • +1

      I love Halo but the Infinite multiplayer IMO is wait until they add playlists. You can't play SWAT, FFA or Slayer.

      • At least it's free unlike COD or Battlefield.

        • Warzone is free, that's what everyone seems to be playing CoD-wise. There's also an excellent CoD game that's free on mobile.

      • I think they are adding them in Halo shortly. Either way its been great fun playing ranked trying to increase the Onyx Rank.

        I think they have reduced the amount of times you get Oddball too in the playlist now too. But I can totally understand the frustration of not having a seperate slayer playlist at launch.

        I am more frustrated at the persistant crashes during ranked matches aswell as the average campaign optimisation on PC. My Series X plays far better then my $3000 PC. More arena maps would be good too. And slayer on Behemoth would be good too.

    Are we getting $49/$59 to pick up this junk?

    • +5

      Nope. But I'll give you $69 to pick up my junk.

      • +1

        OzDeal!

        • Just to clear up any confusion, by junk I mean my &$@#.

  • +2

    Maybe $20 I may bite.

    • +1

      once it goes free on amazon gaming and you pick up keys for $1

      what do you expect from ea shit

  • Mine can't even get out of the Battlefield 2042 page. This is game is a PITA.

  • I am in around the $20-30 mark. Only for Portal, i like BC2, BF3 and 1942, they need more maps though.

  • Oh it's sad to see BF bombing but it's their own fault for rushing a hollow joke of a game too busy focused on monetizing the content and making another apex clone I'll probably buy it for portal in another six months when they hopefully optimise it

  • Would make sense for them to release their Series X stock too 🤭😂

  • Only if it's $9 as Valhalla. (Even that I am not buying to play, just for trade in at EB)

    • Why aren’t you giving it a crack? Can’t go wrong for $9 (two coffees)!

  • The game is still unplayable a lot of the time. Might be alright in 6 months

  • +1

    I bet they have millions of spare copies taking up warehouse space all across the world.

  • Nope

  • I wouldn’t even take it for free 🤮
    i swear Anthem is better than this game

  • I will wait until it turns to 9 bucks, worst gunplay ever.

  • Its actually a promotion from EA for the next month..not one day starts on the 16th Dec - finishes 17th January

  • It dropped fast, even Vanguard did. I wouldn't be surprised to see major drops on both!

    • +1

      How’s Vanguard? People don’t seem to like it that much either. I was considering it.

      • ttk is much shorter and most of the weapons are op enough to be your major. Playing Vanguard on PC is quite fun.

        • I haven't played it to be honest, and warzone is going to be a bit of a grind because I'm going to have to grind all these new weapons with even more attachments and they're going to balance everything so all the old guns are absolute rubbish

  • +2

    I will wait unit it free for XBOX GOLD member.

  • +1

    Not even worth getting it at this price. WAIT until a year or so and the games been fixed up and worked on more.

  • Suggest shorten heading to just PS / XB because you have discriminated against series S users.

    • +3

      Series S users dont have a disc drive

  • I bet boxing day it will be $39.

  • +2

    Was $44 at JB on Wednesday…. I reckon this gets the Titanfall 2 treatment and drops to $36 within weeks.

    And I still won’t buy it, waiting for free on game pass.

  • +1

    I don't get why the graphics on this game are so much worse than BFV and BF1. It makes no sense.

  • Just to confirm, Xbox Games are now coming in two separate versions? You have to buy either Xbox One OR XsX version?

  • How did BF5 turn out? I pre-ordered that and it got similar response from people. I didn't like it at the time. Ended up playing Bf1 instead which I bought for $5 around the same time.

  • +1

    For fans of battlefield, this isn't Battlefield.

  • +7

    I'm begging you, please, don't buy this. EA needs to learn that they can't just produce crap and use us as cash cows and easy profit. This is by far the worst FPS game I have ever played. It's simply atrocious that they wanted consumers to pay full price for a game with only 2 actual mode and a Portal mode where earning XP is impossible.

    Conquest is ruined, team work is gone.
    Spotting is horror. Specialists are cringe.
    Servers are crap filled with Bots.

    It's only worth $10 and I think I've been too generous.
    There is a list of missing feature that EA and Dice excluded or removed to save money. https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/qw1mbw/(profanity)/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

    Even this discounted price is a big stretch for this dumpster fire of a game. Not a bargain when what you’re paying for is trash.
