The BR genre is also pretty saturated with longer matured games. The regular old shooting has never really been Battlefield's main strength. Sure, it's generally decent and serviceable, but doesn't usually feel as tight and responsive as its competitors. Unless they really step up their game in that regard or find a very unique gimmick, I can't really see it managing to compete with the likes of Apex.

I see the rumor about 64v64 player maps and that does the exact opposite of make me excited considering battlefields history with balance issues. It feels like they are just tacking on that number because NEXT-GEN, with no real thought to actually making it work.

First ramping the quad in the the helo, then a loving rendezook. Looks like somebody finally remembered that the best part about Battlefield is doing incredibly dumb cool fun poo poo. Mark me down as cautiously optimistic.

The most unrealistic thing about the jet scene was the F-35 flying through a cloud without making GBS threads itself.

I nearly died of disappointment when I saw 2042 and My brain interpreted it as 2142 and then I had to remember that was a different game lol.

it seems cool, it definitely seems like there arent going to be warring 'countries' anymore more like a bunch of Mercenary factions, I dunno, I'm cautiously optimistic but I guess we'll have to wait for yet another arbitrary reveal date for more.

Also LOL the idea that soldiers would be so close together in their hundreds like it's a watergun fight is supremely hilarious to me.

Soldier you are tasked with blowing up that rocket full of trillionaires before it leaves the atmosphere.

Good luck and Godspeed.

I keep looking again and again at the trailer and for the life of me I cant find any form of 'countries' or alliances, but I did see a bunch of corporate looking logos so my suspicion that this is a mercenaries game might be true.

There was also an audio snippet during the countdown talking about "... stranded soldiers left without a country to fight for".

Your good vision is your fatal weakness!
Trailer looked fun and good. Definitely have some hope now for 2142: The Prequel.

Definitely saw some "leveloution" hints, and a lot of fan favorite highlights. Still will come down to the execution...
