BSOD 2042
  • Forces to install unstable GPU driver branch that causes blue screen of death (again).
  • Forces to install beta version of kernel-level anti-cheat that causes blue screen of death.
  • Forces to install poorly developed EA App that causes infinite validation loops and failure to launch.
  • Expects players to be tech-savvy and active on Reddit for troubleshooting issues.
  • Provides zero communication on known issues, then wonders why player count is rapidly dropping.

A lot of these issues can be tolerated.

However, I cannot recommend a game that irresponsibly forces players to break their PCs; particularly by forcing a GPU driver update without actual hardware validation. A higher driver version number does not make it automatically better!

Never purchase an EA product if it has not matured for at least 5 years after release!
Wait for the -85% sale to tell you the game is ready to be played; only then can it be considered "released".
