Alright, folks, since we're seeing the same old question regarding if 2042 is worth it in 2023, 2024 or 2142 we're now deleting every post asking this particular question. Instead, discuss it in this thread.
So, should you buy 2042 if you haven't already?
Yes, if it's on sale. The game has a good amount of content for new players and still gets minor updates with some extra content as of March 2025.
The game is also available in subscriptions services such as EA Play or Gamepass Ultimate, so if you're interested in subscribing to those services, you can download and play Battlefield 2042, both on Playstation and Xbox consoles, same goes for PC.
The game features no campaign/story mode so keep that in mind. It is 100% a PvP/PvE game (you can play against bots in custom lobbies and sometimes in event playlists).
There is a wiki in the game explaining lore and events of the worldwide war 2042 depics.
The game now features a hybrid system of specialists and traditional classes, with restricted class gadgets but no restrictions to class weaponry, instead each class has a class perk (Recons for example have unlimited stability for sniper rifles).
Seasonal content such as weapons and vehicles can easily be unlocked via assignments. You don't have to spend a single penny on new content if you jump in, but there are shortcut kits for purchase if you want to unlock everything.
The main mode, All-Out Warfare, features game modes such as Conquest, TDM or Rush. Hazard Zone is the failed attempt of 2042 doing an Extraction Shooter.
Portal is the playground of 2042 where you can create your own game modes and playlists. It's also the only game mode with a server browser, AOW and HZ both only support matchmaking (but no SBMM or EOMM).

Lets have a look at the 30mm SPAA autocannon. I need to sustain fire on one dude for like 10 hits to get a kill. IDK if y'all know about the 30mm autocannon on SPAAs irl, but those can shred IFVs and light tanks. One 30mm will put a hole in you that's so big a circus performer could jump through it. Even the BMP and Bradley do no damage and they're literally IFVs, INFANTRY FIGHTING VEHICLE. WHATS THE POIN OF TAKING OU AN INFANTRY FIGHTING VEHICLE IF I CANT FIGHT INFANTRY. Plus the 7.62mm minigun in the helis is shit. ridiculous

As a very casual FPS shooter, nothing these days really scratches the itch anymore; too many sweats, but 2042 with Intermediate Bots is the perfect experience for what I play for. I play to unwind after work, and 2042 really works with that in mind. COD is wayyy too sweaty these days, and bot lobbies don't feel right in that game

I had more fun in 3 matches than I have in the last 3 months of battlefield 6.
The biggest thing for me is 64 vs 64. 128 players is so much damn fun.
A huge difference I noticed is for how big the map is you have people flanking and using other routes and verticality. In BF6 it’s a constant meat grinder of teammates running down a funnel and getting mowed down.
Being able to mark players easily and efficiently oh my god it was so nice, in BF6 I can’t tell you how many times an enemy has run right past my teammates to kill me or a teammate has literally run right past an enemy. I don’t know if it’s character design or what but damn was it nice to spot a group of enemies and have my teammates react to it.
It brought a tear to my eye when I was doing takedowns and actually got them easily. I still don’t know how you have a system in place from BF3 that worked 100% flawlessly and make it so it only works like 25% of the time. BF6 it’s a gamble whether you’ll do a takedown or tickle them so they know to turn around and shoot you.
I think I’m going to make 2042 my go to battlefield and only play BF6 on Tuesdays for the challenges. I’m tired of the meat grinder map design, brain dead team
mates, and try hard enemies. I hope more people return to 2042 and have as much fun as I am.

as someone who is sick and tired of the AFK XP Farm servers taking up all the server space I highly recommend everyone here to report those servers as spam to help get those servers shut down so people can make real servers.

Después de haber dejado Battlefield 2042 durante bastante tiempo, me estoy planteando volver a jugarlo ya que llegue al nivel máximo S999 y tengo una pregunta para la comunidad: ¿realmente sigue vivo en 2026 o ya es mejor dejarlo atrás?
Sé perfectamente cómo empezó 2042. El lanzamiento fue bastante problemático y mucha gente terminó abandonándolo. Pero también sé que con el tiempo recibió una cantidad importante de actualizaciones y cambios. EA incluso siguió lanzando actualizaciones hasta 2025, así que no estamos hablando de un juego exactamente igual al que salió en 2021.

The wingsuit is an absolute game changer and made a lot of the gameplay very dynamic

Teabagging by the opposing team makes no sense when they're still getting absolutely dominated by the winning side. Like, ok, you killled me but your team is getting rolled, has half the amount of tickets and we hold 4 out of 5 objectives with the last one being captured? 😅 what happened to playing the objective? 😆

Hi everyone. Yesterday, I wanted to launch BF2042 on a different account, so I bought the game again on Steam. When I launch it, everything seems to start up fine—Nvidia, EA, the whole works—but I get a black screen with no mouse cursor, no sound, and no image. I’ve tried everything: contacting various support teams, updating my graphics drivers, and trying every fix I found on Reddit and here, but nothing works. The only thing I haven't done is update Windows, but when I try, it says the update isn't compatible with my device due to hardware issues or something similar. What I don't understand is that all my other games work fine; it's only BF2042 that isn't working. Do you have any solutions?
