Developer Apologies for Problems in Battlefield 2042

Battlefield 2042 has had all sorts of problems as of late. While there is an Update 3.2 scheduled on January 20, 2022, and developer Ripple Effect has been attempting to fix the bugs and glitches, fans have been very frustrated. It’s understandable.

When Battlefield 2042 premiered in November 2021, it was not the game that fans hoped it would be. A fan even reached out on Twitter, asking about two of the problems in-game. One being limited XP, and the other being the tier 1 progression for the portal. And surprisingly, there was a Tweet back, specifically by the Ripple Effect Studios senior design director Justin Wiebe. And it sounds like he’s not happy either.

Thanks for bringing this up. You’re not wrong! It’s taking us too long to get this resolved. Something that should have been simple is proving to be quite complex. BUT…. Look for an update next week. There will be a phased approach to improving the progression in BF Portal. https://t.co/1YCJjD0V9X

So, still not what was promised at launch then. Portal is what may save the game at this point, and you need to address the XP issue more rapidly. Who gives a crap if people XP boost in Portal? Leveling up in this game has no meaning anyhow.

Justin...we were sold a game that told us we would progress equally, no matter what game mode we played. That's the game I purchased. That's the game I'm expecting. These XP earning restrictions need to be completely removed. Portal is already effectively dead. This won't help.
