"BattleField 2042" STEAM version The number of simultaneous connection players of the version falls below past work. Predicament

ELECTRONIC ARTS / DICE FPS "BATTLEFIELD 2042" has been launched after the release, but compared to the time of launch, the number of players is significantly reduced, and the series of past works is also inferior is. Overseas media IGN reports.

The number of simultaneous connection players of the "BattleField 2042" PC (STEAM) version has been 10,000 people immediately after Launch last November. I hit the top digit in the series of the series. However, after that, it continued to decline, and once again at the time of the free weekend implementation of December, it takes a decline (STEAMDB). The transition that it will decrease immediately after the launch, and then decreasing is often found in many titles. However, around 3,000 in the last two months. It is a lonely number as the latest work of the famous series.

The number of simultaneous connection players of the STEAM version of the previous work "Battlefield V" for a few days in the last few days is more than 20,000 numbers. Furthermore, "Battlefield 1" was back and after 8000, and "BattleField 4" was less than 3000 people. Although it is a comparison of the number of simultaneous connectivity players, STEAM is the population of "BattleField 2042" slightly above "BattleField 4", and in the series, it can be estimated that "BattleField V" is most full of "BattleField V".

Battlefield 2042 finally gets an update...

There will be no doubt that there is an unpopular "Battlefield 2042", which will be described later. Before that, look at the transition of the simultaneous number of simultaneous players of the "Battlefield V" STEAM version, first increased by the free weekend held in August last year. And it has been increased again before the release of "Battlefield 2042" (STEAMDB). Actually, "BattleField 1" and "Battlefield 4" have also been the same as "BattleField 4", and it seems that there were many users who touch past works with the release of new work.

And past work will reduce all after the "Battlefield 2042" launch, but it takes a gentle increase from the end of the year. The player may have moved to the past work such as "Battlefield V", whether the new work is decreasing. When "BattleField 2042" and "Battlefield V" are compared, it is also seen that the flow of the number of simultaneous connecting players has been reversed since that time.

"BattleField 2042" was to be able to stick strict evaluation from the user immediately after release. In addition to the game performance issues and bugs, there is also a lack of adjustment of game balance. The current STEAM version user review is "A little unpopular" and recent reviews.

Development source DICE has ever been able to fix bug fixes and balanced adjustments, but has not recalled the evaluation. In fact, this work has not yet started the season 1 and is postponed to the improvement of the base part of the game. At present, it is guided to start in early summer, and the root depth of the problem can be seen.

Under such circumstances, the policies for adjusting the map were shown (related articles). In this work, a large-scale match with up to 128 people has been greatly appealed before launch, but the lack of adjustment of the map prepared according to the number was one of the factors that lower the evaluation of this work. When improving, users' opinions are also incorporated. I would expect that the number of players will be a trigger to recover.

"BattleField 2042" is on sale for PC / PS4 / PS5 / Xbox One / Xbox Series X | S.
