Battlefield 2042 Update!

DICE wants to fix Battlefield 2042 first before the first season starts. Buyers of the more expensive editions will get a gift to make up for it.

Players of Battlefield 2042 will have to wait longer for the start of Season 1. As DICE explained in a (Blogpost) after a lengthy radio silence, the first season will not start until early summer 2022. Originally, it seemed that it would be in March.

First, the developers want to improve the game, which includes numerous adjustments requested by players. Among other things, a scoreboard and VoIP support are to come before the game receives its first new content. DICE has promised four seasons with four new specialists and new maps.

What happens next

The next update is due to arrive in March 2022. In it is the revised scoreboard, improved voice communication and a better overview of one’s player statistics.

In one of the next updates, there is also an apology package for buyers of the Deluxe and Ultimate Editions, who will receive a number of skins and other goodies. Here you can see the package:

Better feedback: In order to be able to make improvements closer to the wishes of the players, DICE wants to present focal points in future and explain planned changes in detail. Afterwards, the player feedback is to be evaluated and assessed before it finally flows into the further planning.

The Great Crash

Battlefield 2042 lost almost all its players within a few months after a strong start on Steam. At the time of release, over 100,000 simultaneously active users were still playing on Steam, today they amount to around 5,000. Even the predecessor Battlefield 5 can boast busier battlefields

How many players will return to Battlefield 2042 with improvements and new content, only time will tell.

There is still some time to go before early summer, around June. Should DICE actually pull off a small miracle, it is conceivable that some players will give Battlefield 2042 another chance. But that is by no means certain.
