00:00.2 - 00:03.8
Your copy of Battlefield 2042 is installed, mein Führer.

00:03.9 - 00:07.5
We've also updated you to the latest game ready drivers.

00:08.0 - 00:11.7
All Out Warfare has your favorite modes: Conquest and Breakthrough

00:11.8 - 00:15.6
You can play these modes on seven brand new maps.

00:17.1 - 00:21.2
I can't wait to play with my 5 friends. We'll join a server and play through all the maps.

00:23.9 - 00:28.4
Mein Führer, there is --

00:29.3 - 00:33.5
There is no server browser. They replaced it with matchmaking.

00:34.0 - 00:36.1
You can't play with more than 3 friends.

00:52.5 - 00:58.4
Everyone who isn't a Battlefield veteran, please leave the room.

01:12.7 - 01:17.9
The server browser is a fundemental aspect of the Battlefield franchise.

01:18.3 - 01:23.3
Without being able to join and stay in a server, you can't play all of your friends.

01:24.8 - 01:27.4
And the maps...

01:29.2 - 01:33.8
Without an actual server, you can't even choose which maps you'll play.

01:34.2 - 01:40.2
It can keep matching you to Orbital over and over, even though your completely sick of that map after the Beta.

01:40.3 - 01:42.6
Mein Führer, but they added Portal, which is a love letter to fans.

01:42.7 - 01:46.1
You can't even play Breakthrough in Portal!

01:46.5 - 01:48.2
Mein Führer, this is only the early access version...

01:48.8 - 01:52.7
With disbanding lobbies, we're no better than Call of Duty.

01:52.8 - 01:54.6
Call of Duty!

01:55.3 - 02:03.2
This is supposed to be a team-based game, but if you have more than 3 friends, you either have to take turns or play in different servers.

02:03.9 - 02:08.2
And if you play solo and actually find good squad, they'll be gone when the map  ends.

02:08.3 - 02:13.3
If you find a fun, balanced game, you can't even play with those same people again...

02:13.4 - 02:16.6
...because the lobby will just disband.

02:17.2 - 02:21.8
Without a server, you can't alternate between attack and defense in Breakthrough.

02:26.6 - 02:36.5
After Battlefield V, I just wanted to get the gang back together and have fun like the good old days.

02:40.7 - 02:53.3
I promised myself I wouldn't get my hopes up this time. I told myself not to pre-order. But here we are with an unfinished and fundementally broken game where I can't even play with my friends.

02:53.6 - 03:02.5
And don't even get me started on how disbanding lobbies probably means SBMM. If you have a good game, it was probably because the algorithm decided you'd be more likely to buy cosmetics if you got a win.

03:04.4 - 03:07.4
Maybe DICE is too incompetent to build SBMM.

03:14.1 - 03:26.1
Maybe I'll just have to forget about playing with friends. At least I can still go medic and try to get to the top of the scoreboard with zero kills.

03:31.1 - 03:33.4
At least I still have that.

03:40.2 - 03:48.6
First the destruction of Battlefield's class system, and now no server browser with disbanding lobbies...

03:53.6 - 03:55.5
Is Halo out yet?
