Battlefield 2042 in den Early Access gestartet, bekannte Probleme

Seit gut einer Stunde lässt sich Battlefield 2042 im Early Access spielen, bevor der offizielle Release in der nächsten Woche erfolgt.

Im Fall von Battlefield 2042 scheint man etwas besorgt über den Zustand des Spiels zu sein, wie man dem Feedback der Beta entnehmen konnte. Daher listet Entwickler DICE jetzt eine umfangreiche Liste mit Problemen auf, die bereits bekannt sind und an denen gearbeitet wird. Diese werden definitiv noch in der Launch Build enthalten sein und nach und nach gefixt.

Hierzu kommentiert DICE:

„Die in diesem Artikel aufgeführten Details können sich ändern, wenn wir das Feedback der Community hören und unseren Live-Service und unsere Inhalte weiterentwickeln und verbessern. Wir werden uns stets bemühen, unsere Community so gut wie möglich zu informieren.“

Die Liste erscheint ziemlich lang und sollte eigentlich Anlass sein, ein Spiel nicht in diesem Zustand zu veröffentlichen. Es wird sich zeigen, wie sehr die allgemeine Qualität darunter leidet, sobald die breite Masse an Spielern in der nächsten Woche loslegt.

Zumindest räumt man der nachfolgenden Liste eine hohe Priorität ein, die jedoch nicht alle Fehler im Spiel umfasst.
