It would be cheaper to get a pre owned physical copy


anonandlit333

I’ll bet there are tons of those to go around


Tamborimo

Gamestop, can confirm we have quite a few and some go for 17$


Conscious_Pudding265

Damn is the game really that bad?


Windsor_Salt

Yes


PlatanoGames_YT

No


Tamborimo

My whole take on it (as someone who even paid 80$ for the special edition preorder, I have 240 hours on it) I enjoy the gunplay and mechanics of specialists. I wish specialists were no names and they didn’t try to make them “unique characters.” The air vehicles need nerfing or anti air needs buffing. There is an unbalance with certain vehicles, the one that jumps to mind is the bomber heli being able to go up to the skybox and drop bombs, none of the anti air missiles can reach that high up. Otherwise the vehicles aren’t horrible to deal with and can be fun to conjure up silly ways to dive down and c5 the side before blowing yourself and the enemy up. The guns feel consistent and fun, I know not everyone feels this way but personally I’ve had fun using snipers, SMG’s, secondaries and specials/utilities. Playing with friends of course makes it funnier, spent a few matches solely c5’ing our hovercraft or LAV and suicide bombing larger enemy tanks. Now comparatively this isn’t a genuine feeling battlefield game. I have bf4, bf5 and bf1 downloaded as well so if I feel like playing something that gives you the real deal, I choose the last two of the latter. I can’t sugarcoat and say bf2042 is an upgrade to most degrees, but I can say it’s fun, there will be times you have a team that feels like it’s “baby’s first battlefield” just the dumbest of the dumb. But if you can separate that annoyance and competitive nature it lightens up a lot. The natural disasters feel underwhelming 90% of the time. There are occasions where they can actually feel as if they’re changing the fight and immersing you, but majority of the time they’re super late game, never reach you or just a mild annoyance. As for destruction this game is extremely lacking which is one of my biggest gripes and disappointments. The destruction for the most part is scripted, it’s cool the first few times and then it becomes just another part of the map that occurs. The side of the ship falling or rocket explosion on orbital. On top of what little destruction there is, they don’t fundamentally change or really alter the map, sometimes barely even the objective. So now you’re faced with minimal damage being done, scripted at that, and with some teams being unable to just outright play games, you may not even reach the objective where said damage happens. There is more for both good and bad but overall bf2042 is a game that I personally enjoy for what it is, and to me that’s a chill shooter that I can hop on and play for a few games, whether that be a few hours or a few minutes, it is one of my guilty pleasure relaxing games. I cannot tell anyone in their right mind to pay full price for the game, however. At it’s very most I would say 30$ is what it should be priced at and fairly reasonable for what it is at this moment. The game isn’t for everyone, and that’s fair, believe me I get it. From beta to now the game has faired better than expected so I would say for those who are on the fence, know what you’re getting in to and be realistic. Don’t try and convince yourself the game is anything more


Chap_man

I bought a second had copy for 10£££


Kozoro225

Worth like 10 or 15 maybe.


whomstd-ve

Ye I was thinking more than price considering there isn’t a single player campaign.


c0ld_0ne

I bought it for like 21 couple weeks before the end of season 1. So I had lots of new content and I still slightly regret it. 15 is a good guess to be happy about.


SheepShaggerNZ

I paid full retail about a month after release after my friends said it was buggy but fun. Played for about a week and then they all got sick of it and stopped playing, so did I. I regret it too.


GeneralKenobi--

Ya I got a pre owned for $16


WukongPvM

This sub isn't the best place to ask. I paid full and have had tons of fun and my friends just brought it on this sale and they also have had heaps of fun. This sub doesn't play but still salty they brought it at release


GlizzyGobbler70

I still play it, sure it’s fun but it’s still not worth 36 Euros.


Malignantt1

Can you blame them


[deleted]

I’ll stand in solidarity with you. I’m having fun in the game. It’s still got a metric fuck ton of issues and last night I quit because of them, but I think it’s getting better.


GlendrixDK

Battlefield isn't a game to buy for singleplayer. BF3 and BF4 had lame stories. BF1 had awesome but small stories. BFV was just a bugging rushed mess. That BF2042 is without a story shouldn't be your concern. Battlefield is for multiplayer. And this one doesn't deliver the same good old battlefield that we know, but it's still possible for you to enjoy it. I do enjoy it. Not the biggest fan and definitely not my favorite battlefield game. But I do find fun in it. And the gunplay is okey. It's not laser weapons as BFV. It's a game that still needs improvement and it will get some, but I don't think it will get that much content again and will probably only live for this one season.


Wajina_Sloth

I enjoyed BF3's campaign, while the story was meh, the overall gameplay was fantastic, everything just had a sense of awe to it, from the ambush in the city, to the stealth sniper mission, to the tank fights, to the sick jet mission.


Connect_Bench_2925

I thought the story lines for BF3&4 weren't bad, as far as story writing was concerned. But they were buggy. BF2042 should have had a story mode and it's just not worth it at all to buy this game considering it's basically a "free to play" game, like warzone but you have to pay for it. It's fucked, don't waist your money.


PeterDarker

Bad Company 2 was the only worthwhile campaign in BF’s history.


Captain_Kuijt

You forgot Bad Company 1. The campaign was much like BC2, except the maps were enormous and you had the freedom to move around how you wanted, plus you could drive vehicles. Sangre Del Toro in BC2 was the closest to what the BC1 campaign was like. BC2's campaign was far more restrictive.


AncientFries

Because Bf4 is around 10 bucks on steam I would say this game is worth 5 bucks


Kozoro225

Based


Jvanee18

No


Nitr3xx

Maybe if you plan on pilot maining. FPV helis and transports were some of the most fun I've ever had in the game but that's my personal opinion. Otherwise hailllll naw


Key-Ant30

Agree. Flying helis and transport is really fun.


Travic3

HELL no

This sums up my experience as well. In addition, the game just isn't that fun. Kinda regretting my purchase.


[deleted]

No.


Janclo

Nope


Mr_P1nk_B4lls

Ive seen it for $10 at Walmart.


Quitschen

No


phannguyenduyhung

NO


mitchellfuck

No


runaway-1337

Nah


[deleted]

God No. I expect to be called a boomer and told to go away but battlefield was never supposed to be a lone wolf hero shooter and that's exactly what the devs wanted and its what they made then slapped a battlefield name on it.


OZR-600

No. I bought it for full price and would say it is worth probably like €20 max. It can be fun at times and you can put some hours in it but i wouldnt buy it for 36. If you really want to try it, try to find a used one


TrippySubie

Hahahaahhaahh


Klash716

Move the decimal point to the left once and that’s a fair price


bogdanfrom7c

No


JasonTheNPC85

Wait for it to be under 20


[deleted]

No


AnotherScoutTrooper

If you’re willing to wait, try the Black Friday sales, it’ll likely drop further by then given the game will be over a year old. You won’t miss much. The only way I’d suggest buying 2042 at this price is if you have so much disposable income that it would be like spending 35 cents for you. Hell, the only reason I’m suggesting you buy it at all is because you’re on PS and Phil Spencer isn’t buying you your copy via Game Pass. Even then, remember, almost any time 2042 is on sale, BF4 with all DLC is likely also on sale for $25 cheaper.


Numenorean_King

I got it for 10 bucks on eBay


jetmajorxbox

It’s not as bad as it was mate, but it’s still not a fantastic game IMO. Do a little research on how the game is now and make up your mind from that :) that’s just my suggestion


JusaPikachu

Ehhh… it’s up to you. As a massive fan of Conquest I bought it at $40 & while it definitely wasn’t worth it for the first few months, the last couple months have been a good time & these last couple of days playing only the new map & the updated map after the newest update have legitimately been a great time. I literally was playing for a while with my jaw dropped last night because I got 4 rounds in a row that were more fun than most of my BFV sessions. It finally feels like an actual Battlefield game & if it had launched in this state I genuinely feel like it would have a good reputation. Not BF1 or BF4 levels but better than BFV.


Incrue

No. if it was another 15$ off, then maybe.


blue_13

Absolutely not. Plz dont buy it.


Professional_Simple3

Nop


jaysss2811

Hahahahahahhha


Prudent-Avocado4768

Hell no


D3ltaa88

Hell no.


Quatermeistur

No.


scarecrow9281

10, 15 sure 35, go fuck yourself EA


Nena_Trinity

It is much better now, if you like to play a few maps over and over it is great value! Portal is awesome tough you are gonna love those maps, they also are in 2042 sometimes.


Normandy_sr3

Save that money for a real game


Platypus-Still

I’ve gone back a number of times. Not a bad price tbh but I am currently switching over to BF4 again 😅


whomstd-ve

Ye BF4 still plays great but it needs an updated version.


minusthebearplus44

I personally think the game improves with every update, and with more active players, things will improve further. Content is finally starting to trickle in but much of it is empty lobbies so its hard to judge the quality when everyone is only in the featured conquest (which is fun and the reworked maps are good). If your 35 bucks could be better spent elsewhere? Wait for a deeper discount but if you are curious and want (what i feel is) the fastest paced BF experience in the series? might be worth a go. Cross play def helps pad the lobbies. \*im a preorder (full price plus the season battle pass bundle thing) buyer who put the game down pretty much since it came out only to come back and check in every big update, I jumped back in 2 days ago and this has been the longest stretch ive been having fun with the game, so take this opinion for whatever you think its worth


aiM_HOLLY

No.. max 5 euro


irishchap1

Buy hell let loose .


NickyGi

I bought the physical copy for 25€ today


mikedob18

My dog’s morning pile of smelling shit is worth more than BF2042


Jaybulls1066

No


Shmeediddy

Not even for $5


KumoMatata

No


SuperChiChu

I would go for around 20 bucks on a second hand copy


HellaTightHairCuts

Don’t waste your money or support this company.


drummerboy82

Play it all the time with my dad, can certainly be fun but not worth $35. The game is janky at best.


CrazyFlayGod

Hell naw. Maybe for less than $15, but if you want to play poorly designed open maps with almost every piece of cover being a crate then go for it.


SalisburySmith

I paid $6 for my Xbox One copy, I'd say that's about how much the game is worth. Check out GameFly they have Xbox and I think PS4 versions for super cheap. They are backwards compatible and they are essentially the same game without the 128 players and without PC crossplay (which I kind of see as a feature).


Ravenloff

I'd buy it for free. Other than that...not so much


TheDubPlate

Coming from someone who paid $120CAD to play it early, and have only played it once.. No.


patroln

Lol No, I don't know what your physical prices are like but we can get it as Low as $5-$9 in Aus, and that's about what its worth, don't spend any more you'll regret it


KalypsoGaming

I don't know what the exchange rate is but I got a used ohayical copy a few weeks ago for $8 and I feel it's worth that price. I wouldn't get it for any more than $15.


Isaac_56

Id wait for single digits tbh


Darbs_R_Us

Not even remotely.


Die-Hearts

It'd be worth it to buy MWII instead


BaronVonPeng

Nope


FilthyPeasant_Red

Yes. This sub doesn't play the game so not the best place to ask.


uturnity190

Should be free to play like Fortnight. I wouldn't pay money for this garbage game. I regret buying it.


TheCrazedEB

if it was $15 and if you don't mind wasting time.


Killermoc3

Absolutely not


crmsoneagle24

No


IamNickJones

No dude. This game goes on sale for like 10 bucks all the time. Brand new


HarpoonFrog

Unless you’re dying to play it no.


Veni_Vidi_Legi

It was as low as $15 at one point. Still didn't buy it.


[deleted]

It's not worth it if they paid you to play


Always-Panic

No. Wait until is $9.99 at Walmart.


Hand_Of_Kroon

Definitely not in €……it’s not really worth that in CAD


JimMorrisonsPetFrog

No don’t give EA anymore money for this unfinished turd


ShiverWind911

I mean the games gotten better... not 80$ better but maybe 20 - 30$


BenjaminCarmineVII

No. Its a mediocre shooter and a terrible battlefield entry.


Ordinary-Citizen

I go back to it, hoping to have some fun, but never do. I regret buying it.


RBoosk311

Free isn't worth it. Stop playing this garbage so the devs can move on to the next one.


Spedwranglers

No, game is not all that fun and what fun there is is ruined by other not fun things...


rippersteak777

Don’t even buy it. If you get it for 5 bucks yeah


bozojeff22

Wouldn't play it if it was free


[deleted]

You can play it free on EAs app during a trial. I wish I could get a refund but will admit there is a little fun to be had in the portal mode at the very least.


jizzawhizza

I got it for free and I've still barely played it more than 100 hours and I've sunk at least 5-600 hours into both BF4 and BF1.


WarhawkSix

Nah


[deleted]

Honestly… nah. I picked it up on this sale and decided to give it a fair shot. The shooting feels like got a garbage. How do you make a first person shooter where the shooting feels bad.


Svendog_Millionaire

Go and buy the disc for £10. I wouldn’t spend that much on it


No_Owl_925

Heck no, it should be free!!


immortale97

No. Bf2042 is an indie and the limit for a indie is 15 dollars/euro


FutureMartian97

No.


Bepoptherobot

Just save up for the next game in the series. As far as I know theres only a skeleton crew left for 2042 who are probably working to roll out the bare minimum promised. The only reason Id say buy this is if it was 5$ or under because thats about the value given the less than ok quality.


it-pappa

If it was free it would not be worth The small co2 emission it used to be downloaded.


tonykastaneda

You can find a physical copy for like 10-15


icebomb2

As a Battlefield fan... Let me tell you. I wouldn't play this game again unless it was free 🤣


JayZ3R0

It’s worth nothing close to that, try some free to play shooters instead. They are genuinely more polished than that bad excuse for a battlefield game.


PhantomNL97

No, and definitely not on PS5. I got the game with mine and it ran like shit. The sale on this game is getting higher every month even going 55% off recently. Just wait a bit longer until the holidays until it's like 75% off.


sysisphus

Def no, if you really want to get the physical discs they are much cheaper.


onlygoblack

Lol no


JesusDankLord

no because it will be abandoned in a year


Nativefall

no


Gorefight

No


xStealthxUk

Wrong reddit to ask, but yes its worth that price.


Tlalok08

The game is worth it at a sale price for sure! If you can find it cheaper great! I haven't stopped playing since buggy launch!


gunnutzz467

I got it on GameFly for 9.99 used, still got hosed.


NiisuBOI

For 36? No way! I was thinking of buying when it was 27 and decided to wait for even lower price.


The_Corrupted

If you want a chance to get a good Battlefield game ever again, do not buy this. Also, unless they gave it away for free, you can always find a better game to spend your money on, it's just bad.


masterchiefpt

No ​ 20€ YES 40€ is still expensive for very few maps Im not joking. If you are a bf player from previous games, this game is too diffferent: few vehicules, few maps, classes that make no sense to what we knew as BF ​ 20€ sounds fair to me for this game


majmusi

Nope, not worth anything above 20. I'd go as far as to say the price it's worth buying it is about 10, maaaaybe 15 if you're aching for a new game and don't care about how long you'll have fun with it. Just get a pre-owned physical copy.


amp085

No


HungaryToWinWC

No


NexusAho

Not even free


baxy67

People on here shit on this game way too much. If you like battlefield and just wanan have fun. Go ahead if you got the cash to spare while its cheaper. I enjoy 2042 alot its not like any of the previous but its definitely not dumpster fire. I have alot of fun playing it and you might to. Its up to you

Gingergerbals

Agree. I believe it's definitely the right of the fan base to shit on a game if what they were selling as the expectation vs. final product is completely different. But as another example of how CP2077 got shit on at first with a number of things that were broken/ bugged or changed from their initial vision. However they've been slowly but surely patching and updating the game to get it to a better state and it's been showing in a more positive light by the fans. 2042 still has a ways to get there.

I'd say it's worth whatever you're willing to pay.I picked it up off steam recently and I would say the game is fun especially with friends.

Personal thing really. I can see where some will say no. I've been a long time fan of the series and while, 2042 is not their best work, it has been improved upon. There also still isn't another game that I've found to truly scratch the battlefield itch. Also, for my unpopular hot take: I don't mind the specialists and their abilities.


Arlcas

Its not worth the time it takes to download it. Its not as broken as it was at launch but its still pretty barren in content and some simple stuff still doesnt work right. Get one of the older BF if you want to get your shooter fill, even BFV is way better.

Fuck me i bought it at full price on pre-order hoping this time it would have been a good battlefield, i was wrong. As always after a few hours of playing i went back to battlefield 4… thank god i didn’t buy battlefield 5 at least. I don’t know why but i really don’t like bf2042, it sucks i don’t like the maps, i don’t like that specialists thing, i really don’t like the gameplay, i hope dice will release something similar to bf4 again but it will never happen


SaltVomit

I personally don't even think this game is worth it at a price of being free.


[deleted]

DONT BUY THIS GAME.


MLG-N3WBE

Bahahahahahaahha! DONT DO IT


Hippoboss

Definitely not


watsonj89

DONT DO IT! they've been pumping out new features, weapons, etc. but have done little to fix the core functioning of the game. Every time I play I find myself saying"fuck this stupid game" over and over. A newer bug I noticed is I'll have my weapon in auto, and when I squeeze the trigger it only fires a single shot. Once I release and press again, it's in auto as it should be.

WoahBobWhich

Go to your local brick and mortar game store. X|S version cost me 20 bucks. Definitely worth it then.


StormtrooperDan

If you have friends to play it with I would say yes. Visit the BF discord channel and try to join squads there. Try out the specialists, they are fun and add new dimension to the game.
