Battlefield 2042 - DICE Goes Back to the Future, Just Not the 2142 Future

Snipers & Knives is a really good time. BF 2042 Rush is also something people should play in the Portal. Small infantry assaults like the classic mode from Bad Company but with the Specialists and loadouts. It’s slick.

I just won a Breakthrough on Breakaway. That’s just not easy to do, but super satisfying when you can pull it off.

We played a lot of Hazard Zone tonight and one thing in that mode that’s frustrating is just the sheer lack of capability that you have. It really ought to let you run CoD Overkill-style loadouts so you can switch from a long range to a short range weapon to give you the ability to engage at different ranges. As it stands, everything seems to devolve into mostly the same kind of fight. It’s rare to have the engagements come at any kind of range. I suppose a bunch of players running snipers might work?

More experimentation is needed maybe…

One thing is for sure, you should focus on a gun and get the better attachments for it. Few of them feel all that good until you unlock some things for them. If you don’t do this, you will get chewed up by people who did take the time to grind attachments.
