Battlefield 2042 'did not meet expectations', says EA
techradar.comBattlefield 2042 has suffered ongoing issues since its launch in November 2021, with EA now admitting that the first-person shooter «did not meet expectations».
In the company's recent Q3 earnings call (via The Verge), CEO Andrew Wilson addressed Battlefield 2042's turbulent last few months, calling the game «ambitious» but explaining that developing it during the Covid-19 pandemic — which meant its teams had to work from home — was «challenging».
«Through our processes for testing and preparation, we believed the experience was ready to be put in our players’ hands,» Wilson said. «We launched with strong stability; however, as more players experienced the full game, it became clear there were unanticipated performance issues that we would need to address.
