Maybe Battlefield 2043 will be better... not. This game must have been a real kick in the balls for them. Oh well, it's their own fault given that EA/DICE practically begged for it.

Always amazed people keep buying these games, especially preordering them.
Of the modern BF games, I liked BF3. BF Hardline multiplayer was fun, but it died really fast.

BF4 was great once they ironed out all the initial launch bugs. I personally thought BF 1 was a good time until they allowed the never ending explosive spam. BF V was ok, just not what most people wanted from a WW II game (no iconic battles and some weird guns). BF4 and BF1 still actually have a solid player base.

Player numbers in BF5 would be way higher if they didn't drop support for BF2042 & would use a anti cheat system that doesn't suck.

I used to play V. They added character lighting and increased the health in BR mode and those two single handedly drove me off. The non iconic battles and absence of any hardcore mode kept me away.

Was hoping dice/EA would dig in and give this game a total facelift to get it back up to a respectable standard.
Doesn't look like that is going to happen - https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/battlefield-2042-bf2042-dice-ea-report/
A game this size running on a skeleton crew means we should continue to receive lackluster "content" and the occasional bugfix.
Sad that Battlefield might be dead because of this flop. If they released this game as its own series, focused on leveling operators in a large FPS environment, it could have been solid. But instead they tried to fit a Battlefield game inside an operator centric game box and it failed miserably.
