Battlefield 2042 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • davin_chia Davin Chia (@davin_chia) reported

    The issue with authoritarian fear-based transactional approaches is the motivation is no longer intrinsic. This also breeds hatred and resentment. Dangerous - ‘friendly fire’ - on the battlefield.

  • PinchandScrimp GOP is Fascism (@PinchandScrimp) reported

    @therecount how very frightening ... our service people will die of #Covid before they get to a battlefield. I hope @POTUS does not sign. I cannot imagine an entire army platoon ravaged by #Covid.

  • Chodski_BTC Chodski_BTC⚡️ (@Chodski_BTC) reported

    @EugenSystems guys why are the bots so dumb placed at the map since the update. you have no part of the map where no bot is so i have to play the whole map wtf. i just want my own place my own piece of the battlefield which im responsible for please fix that it makes the game so bad now

  • PockyG PockyG (@PockyG) reported

    @BattlefieldComm Game is has very high input lag still on PC. CPU is constantly pegged at 100%. i5-8600k. Game was working fine before. Now it's unplayable.

  • azjiban azjiban (@azjiban) reported

  • SkylerBlethen Skyler Blethen (@SkylerBlethen) reported

  • voidableflame Voidableflame (@voidableflame) reported

    @Battlefield @Xbox Things are already chaotic with your game still so many things broken

  • CadenKrone KCadenK (@CadenKrone) reported

    @BattlefieldComm @Battlefield But does this fix the optimization

  • beachboysammy Nick Freewill (@beachboysammy) reported

    @BarrettEbh247 @santis4_star Yes I've heard a lot about the issue of late. When I was in the military (75-81) people who refused to be vaccinated would be generally discharged. A direct order is a direct order unless it's an illegal order. I just don't see it. No time for debating on the battlefield.

  • GTpitsafety Gran Turismo Pit & Safety (@GTpitsafety) reported

    @ForwardPushing @EverbornSaga @BRAP_Podcast Not really or they would have approached Cod or Battlefield to do something like that for their release. As for matching the gamepass selling point. Ms can affors to give Gamepass ultimate away for 1$ for years. Even if they both have the game kn their service, MS is taking hit

  • homelsss homeless (@homelsss) reported

    @GrumpyDinxsy @Battlefield i mean we wanted the same thing for battlefront 2 and bfv and yeh those had its own issues that are different from 2042 but dont want the same thing again honestly best to try our luck

  • kingbadshah009 Badshah (@kingbadshah009) reported

    @NVIDIAGFN @midnightsuns @EpicGames Please GeForce now fix battlefield v and 2042 more than a week 🥲🥲🥲🥲

  • redslayerknows Red slayer (@redslayerknows) reported

    @BattlefieldComm Please fix the horizontal aim assist, i dono why the last update for season 3 messed it up, but I would like to see some form of Communication that it’s being looked into.

  • UltrakillQuotes Ultrakill Quote Bot (@UltrakillQuotes) reported

    Due to its necessary thinness, it is far less durable, but the ability to fix itself and rebuild broken parts on the fly would outweigh the negatives on an active battlefield.

  • ThirdCity2 ThirdCity (@ThirdCity2) reported

    @caitoz @rosendo_joe This was all entirely predictable and therefore, one infers was in fact predicted by elites in the US. The US, as its power retreats, plans to turn the world into a broken battlefield.

  • Supa691 Supa69 (@Supa691) reported

    @BattlefieldComm Season 3 update is causing major CPU usage resulting in micro stutter during gameplay. Since that update the game for many is unplayable including me. The forum moderators are ignoring player concerns and not reporting the issue.

  • Jwa174900 Bob Warren (@Jwa174900) reported

    @BattlefieldComm Sweet push the button to fix the high cpu bug so some of us can play. That over resolution “workaround” doesn’t work. Haven’t been able to play since season 3 dropped. I7 8700K 2080ti shouldn’t have these issues

  • NordBlodBear NordBlodBear (@NordBlodBear) reported

    @Battlefield @BattlefieldComm hey so umm you going to fix the bug where if you do a melee finsher that you can't ADS at all after? im a assassin sniper so kinda ***** me when i need to KMS every damn time to fix it

  • BattleNonSense Battle(non)sense (@BattleNonSense) reported

    There is so much that the old games did really well which enabled an extremly deep and varied online experience. All of the issues Battlefield sufferers today are self inflicted and the old games still hold the key to fix many of them and push the franchise further.

  • junglebiomes chips (@junglebiomes) reported

    he'd wasted his second chance. he'd squandered his third. loki knew, by every bolt of lightning that struck the battlefield and every last crash of mjolnir in his ears, that he would not let down his fourth.

  • Cyberpunk2121 Ben de la Courte #gaming (@Cyberpunk2121) reported

    @LegacyKillaHD They can. Just like EA, Ubisoft,etc. EA released these broken unfinished games: Mass Effect Andromeda, Anthem, Battlefield 4, Battlefront 2, Battlefield 5, Battlefield 2042, etc. And Ubisoft has many Games too. People will buy it anyway. @LegacyKillaHD

  • Dioxyde2022 Dioxygen (@Dioxyde2022) reported

    @Podolyak_M You said that the problem will be solved on the battlefield so it is.

  • roanlarsen3D Roan Larsen (@roanlarsen3D) reported

    Interesting observation: The sensitivity issue in BF2042 seems to get worse for me the longer the game is open.

  • Nenjabro Ninjabros (@Nenjabro) reported

    @Lit4Geeks @dngeee Like I can remember a time LL BLU Kid Buu used to be a huge problem cause the longer he stayed on the battlefield the more disruption he would cause by just giving Debuffs and he be hard to catch cause for 4 times he can heal half his vanish gauge on using the green card

  • SunnyCassidy3 Sunny Cassidy (@SunnyCassidy3) reported

    @MeatloafFPS @OGSmurfff @Battlefield Or the console stuttering issue, automatic weapons are unusable.

  • CadenKrone KCadenK (@CadenKrone) reported

    @JaelenJohnston1 @BattlefieldComm Yes and no. Borderline unplayable due to RAM and CPU issues from dogshit optimization

  • Mllllller Miller (@Mllllller) reported

    @Nick930Gaming @LevelCapGaming I don’t know what you’re talking about, this just proves that battlefield fans are as much the problem as the actual developers you guys can’t come up with solutions to problem’s they have been trying to make a hub where you can play off of, all the old game everywhere, since BF4

  • GearyFlynn Mahian (@GearyFlynn) reported

    @PigeonKicker1 @JAAY_ROCK_ Same excuse people used for Battlefield 2042 when it's Beta 6 weeks before release was broken That went well for them, didn't it?

  • FromTheCaptain Cap’n (@FromTheCaptain) reported

    Rule of the Battlefield: The solution to a problem is generally more bombs.

  • HELLRIDER666cro Renato (@HELLRIDER666cro) reported

    @BattlefieldComm Push the fix for aim assist on PS5 is unplayable
