4.0 out of 5 starsIt's good for $9 AUD. Wouldn't pay anywhere near full price.
Reviewed in Australia on 27 April 2022
I bought this for $100 on release day. I refunded it a few hours later. The parts that weren't super buggy were just not the same as previous Battlefield games. It's a bit like COD now, but on a larger map. Everything's a bit too fast and stylised.
For $9 (Roughly $7 USD), it's a pretty good deal. The bugs are fixed and there's still plenty of things I don't like about it but it looks great in 4k and runs well.
The real downside was disrespecting my PC by reinstalling Origin.

2.0 out of 5 starsFull price for something in alpha stage
Reviewed in Australia on 19 November 2021
A game that seems way too broken for a FULL price tag. I'm sure it will get better sometime NEXT year but right now stay away from it. I can already foresee the price tag for this garbage will freefall very soon. Btw when it works...the game isn't that bad, but no way it means it's good either.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hands down the worst battlefield in the franchise
Reviewed in Australia on 26 November 2021
Verified Purchase
What are they trying to be? Just be battlefield. Scoreboard, bugs, operators, the UI, just the overall feel and gun play isn't battlefield.

Battlefield 1 and battlefield V put this to shame. I've played since bf1942 and I just can't get interest in playing it. I don't like it, just can't recommend it.

I'm not experiencing as many bugs as expected but wow the game play is some mix of chaotic and boring at the same time. Disappointed with this purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars Free to play in a few months

The way they've destroyed and monetised the game makes it a likely candidate for free to play in a few months.

Not worth purchasing now.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible game, worse buying experience
Reviewed in Australia on 12 January 2022
Verified Purchase
I know this game sucks, i've played the 10 hour trial and already am aware of that, but i got it with a work gift voucher so it was technically free and i want to play with friends.

The worse part is that this is a digital copy, but instead of them sending a code to your email, they spend a week posting a plastic dvd case with a code in the box, it's so wasteful and is going straight in the trash, what is the point of this? either EA or Amazon need to change how games are delivered because this is stupid.

This game is completely broken, it doesn't work at all. I have tried all suggested fixes such as updating drivers and windows (all of which are already the latest version).
Do not buy this game, trust me, it's a hunk of junk, probably the worst new game release I have ever experienced, I have been gaming for over 20 years on console and PC.

1.0 out of 5 stars Buggy game that shouldn't have made it out of alpha testing
Reviewed in Australia on 21 November 2021
Verified Purchase
Classic example of expectations vs reality. The game advertised in the shiny brochure was not delivered. So many bugs, standard FPS features missing like a simple scoreboard, glitches and bugs only in battlefield. Don't buy this game for at least 6 months post release. The publisher set false expectations with no intention to deliver. Buyer beware!

I just received the redemption code via email, and after redeeming the code through Origin, it didn't appear in my game library. Contacted ea about it, and the redemption went through on their end. Great start to BF2042 :)

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid at all costs.
Reviewed in Australia on 28 November 2021
Verified Purchase
After hearing all the bad press and being a bf fan, I decided to ignore the predominately negative reviews and decided to buy the game anyway. What a mistake that was. The game has clearly been rushed to meet some pencil-pusher's KPI indicators. EA should really reflect on the art of their craft, rather trying to take market share from competiting video game companies. I wish I could take this back, however being digital, I have now wasted $60 that I can never get back.
