      Haven't bought PC games from Amazon before, is this come as a physical disc version or digital download?

        For this one they ship you an empty case with a printed code inside which you redeem in Origin for PC, similar for other platforms.

        Others might say "digital download" and send you a link in your email which also gives you a key.

      Battlefield 2042 suffered launch woes from the jump, with players complaining about everything from bugs to weapon balancing. Though developer DICE has released multiple patches addressing a load of issues, the damage has certainly been done. The player base continues to fracture and revolt across Reddit and social media, unhappy with being sold a full-priced game in what, to them, feels like an incomplete state.

      If you’re someone who is happy enough to play the waiting game when it comes to patches or just grin and bear it your way through things, you might be glad you grabbed Battlefield 2042 for cheap.

        Yeah! Look at No Man Sky, they only had to wait 5 years for a decent working version! So what, you've only 4.5 years left? And you've also just gotten a scoreboard? Things are certainly looking up!

      Its just not a fun game, if you were disillusioned with BF1 you will hate this. Its the furthest from feeling like a battlefield game of all the mainline games.

      I own it so it costs me nothing if I wanted to go play it again but I dont because it's just bad, I will be shocked if EA dont announce that they are completely abandoning it as soon as they have delivered the season 1 content they sold to people as part of the ultimate edition.

      Even if it went free to play I would say it isnt worth the bandwidth.

        I highly rate BF1, it was well put together on every aspect and ffs I have even sourced the sound track and have bf background music in my office it's that friking good.

        Bf5 turned good when it was free and the community did grow exponentially. It's a quick fun game that I'm not getting serious in but bf 2042 just had to much going for it and you can tell they spread themselves to thin to be productive and make something work.

      It's utterly awful. Stay away, don't waste your money like I did. Even though it's $9.

      For $9, buy a box of nails (https://www.mitre10.com.au/otter-nail-wallboard-zinc-plated-…) and a cheap hammer (https://www.mitre10.com.au/buy-rightr-8oz-claw-hammer) from Miter10.

    HLL felt so slow when I played it, I had to walk for 5 minutes to see any action.

    I'm not gonna lie, $9 is tempting.

    Is there a Campaign?

      Hell Let Loose has a large emphasis on establishing spawn points for the team (and covertly taking out the enemy's).

      I promise that as a newcomer, there's so many experienced and friendly players at the moment that the 'endlessly running' critique doesn't really exist any more.

        I'm use to COD, Warzone.

        I like playing super fast and aggressive.

        When I started, I'd hang out on the edge of the map as a sniper. I was scared 🤣🤣🤣

        Now I'll run shotgun, and an SMG and just be super aggressive as I find it more fun.

        I buy so many games, and all I play is Warzone. So, maybe I should stop buying and just stick to the single game 🤣

          Haha, fair enough! Siege has been my go-to since it launched, I enjoy the slightly slower paced FPS titles where you need to make a considered choice before engaging (even if it does all fall to s*** lol). Shotguns are always my weapon of choice though, like getting up close and personal where positioning plays a bigger role than pure accuracy.

          • [Deactivated] on 26/04/2022 - 16:31

      There's no campaign, and no offline or singleplayer mode either, everything is online-only, even playing alone against AI bots.

      So unless they enable offline mode in some future update, this game is not worth getting even for free.

      • Smol Cat on 27/04/2022 - 01:28

        HLL is seriously my favourite shooter of all time now. Nothing else even compares in complexity and realism. Definitely takes some getting used to and learning curve is very steep but worth it if people stick it out.

    I've bought worse games for more out of sheer curiosity… for $9 I'm keen to experience the shit show for myself and play the long game on them making it playable… mind you this is coming from somebody that bought Anthem for $5 after they announced they were doing a major update that never happened.

      I think you’ll be waiting forever. With a declining player base and a terrible reputation, this game will likely have minimal effort put into fixing it
      They’ll be putting all their efforts into a new game with a cool and fun trailer but broken at launch. I wonder will gamers will ever learn

      • Sidog on 26/04/2022 - 16:01

        You're probably right but for $9 I'm not really to worried… BFV was a fun couple of months when it was free on PS+ two years after release and they ended up doing a pretty decent job with Battlefront 2.

        • PiratePete1911 on 26/04/2022 - 16:39

          I will be shocked if they put as much effort in to turning this game around as they did for BFV and Battlefront 2. I am positive this game is going to be cut loose the second they complete the bare minimum that was promised to people that bought ultimate edition.

          • Sidog on 26/04/2022 - 17:02

            @PiratePete1911: 100% you're probably right… I guess as someone that's played every Battlefield going back to 1942, I just curious enough to see how they've managed to turn it into such a dumpster fire that I'm prepared to pay $9 for the price of admission… honestly I think the series went bad when they stopped spawning vehicles on the map and it's been a pretty tired formula for a while.

            https://www.dexerto.com/battalion-1944/playstation-plus-xbox…

            @KRiSX: I did actually have the PS4 disconnected from the internet for a while (it had issues with my router). Did come across some pretty interesting bugs in games like Spider-Man but overall it was useable. Games appear to become more and more reliant on “day one patches” so might be worse with PS5.

        You’re on an Xbox, in a boat?

      I feel your pain man, I really do.

      I would feel livid, annoyed, and sad. I really looked forward to this and was hyped as anything, until I saw reactions to the Beta. First BF game I haven't played at launch, and it just saddens me at where this franchise is now. Just look at Angry Joe's reaction to it on YT, funniest review I've ever watched.

    I can see this being a Game Pass/PS+ game in the near future.
