      My friends who were all disappointed by 2042 are basically all proudly taking the bait already…

      Edit : oh also I forgot, EA expects it to sell 100 MILLIONS UNITS. They’re literally setting it up to fail even if it’s the most successful game ever in the franchise by a factor of 4. Or their execs are wildly incompetent. At this point I can’t be sure which one it is

    I want to be excited for this. However, they keep creating unfinished slop with features half-baked and no one wants. Dice/EA are incredibly tone deaf to their audience. I hope it is good, but based on the past few games, it likely will not be.

      This is where I’m at too. DICE/EA were absolute muppets with the most recent Battlefield with own-goal after own-goal. Literally trying to make BF into a hero shooter with operatives etc. like, stupid bastards took Battlefield out of Battlefield and wondered why it was received poorly.

      That being said, I really hope they’ve learned some lessons and this newest instalment knocks it out of the park. Could absolutely get back into a Battlefield game.

    It looks like destructive environments are back and the nod to the BF4 theme at 2:00 is interesting. Let’s hope that DICE can pull their head out of their ass for this one.

    I’m expecting a complete shit show of disappointment but will happily be proved wrong by EA and Battlefield Studios.
