A user-created zombies manner was added to Battlefield 2042 only yesterday. The limited-time survival mode seemed like a decent distraction from the typical Battleground gameplay. Despite DICE promoting it on the official Battleground Twitter account, it was removed from the Battlefield Portal less than 24 hours afterward going live.

As with all of the other issues the Battlefield Portal has faced, it comes downwardly to exploiting progression. Players rapidly institute out that the zombie mode was just some other bot farming server, leading to tons of criticism from frustrated players. Considering DICE treated the user-created mode as official, it wasn't privy to the same XP cap that faces the rest of Battlefield Portal.

Players wondered how such an oversight could have slipped through. Ripple Issue Studios Senior Design Director Justin Wiebe agreed with the public sentiment. Wiebe replied to a frustrated Twitter user, stating, "this shouldn't have gotten through our review process." In the rush to collaborate on a fun mode that could have added positive printing, Wiebe claimed that it clouded the team'due south ability to decide the sort of affect information technology could have on progression.

Ripple Result Studios has been responsible for the Battlefield Portal portion of DICE'southward almost contempo shooter. In that location are plans for a new projection within the Battleground universe but the squad is however trying to salvage Battlefield 2042'south reputation along with the recently formed studio led by old Halo designer Marcus Lehto.
