“It’s Already Dead” – Battlefield 2042 Gamers Believe There’s No Hope For its Portal Mode

Battlefield 2042 was one of the most highly anticipated titles of the year 2021 and so was its much-hyped Portal mode. But the game’s launch a little over a week ago left many fans of the franchise utterly disappointed with various aspects of the game.

Similar results applied to almost everything the game offers, the brand-new portal mode that was supposed to be a key selling point for the game was rather a letdown for the community. Despite DICE’s efforts to promote it, the fans recently took to Reddit to share their frustration regarding the mode.

Battlefield 2042 Portal: fans in dismay after tragic launch

The widely promoted Portal mode is designed to enable players to have complete control of their game. It allowed players to tweak, restrict and reconfigure minute details such as health regeneration and vehicle choices.

But since the launch, critics and fans have been anything but impressed with DICE’s latest venture. The mode which was initially intended to take players on a nostalgic journey through the franchise’s previous titles is nowhere close to what the fans had expected. And many even believe the mode is as good as dead.

A subreddit, r/battlefield2042, dedicated to the game, recently had an uproar that aimed to shine some light on the seemingly infamous Portal mode. Numerous fans added to the discussion, highlighting the many problems they face when playing Portal mode.

The custom server attribute that allows players to hop on a server with their friends now seems annoying to the fans. Since the game does not grant you any XP for playing well on those servers. Further hindering your progress in unlocking Specialist assignments and weapons.

Widespread disappointment

Surprisingly, Portal’s feature to let players experience previous BF titles has also not performed well. According to the fans, the experience feels more like a demo and doesn’t give players access to all the maps, guns, or vehicles.

One player has lost all hope for the title as he talked about how custom servers are not working as well as they should. They even think Hazard Zone will soon join the rest of the game soon.

As EA DICE continues to improve the condition of the game and deliver what the fans truly deserve, an official has parted ways with the developer organization last week. You can find out more about it in the link attached below.
