Taking video games too seriously is free videos of real sex with coworkerfor suckers. That appears to be the ethos behind one of the three major modes in Battlefield 2042, anyway.
EA’s beleaguered large-scale shooter recently got a shot in the arm thanks to the release of a big Season 1update (and plenty of discounts in various sales). But anyone who picked it up for the first time in recent weeks is probably wondering what the heck “Battlefield Portal” means on the main menu.
Aside from the default competitive modes and the more cooperative Hazard Zone mode (which is on its last legs), Portal is one pillar of the Battlefield 2042experience that requires a bit of explanation. It’s for people like me who think Battlefieldis at its best when you get a little silly with it, but that description alone doesn’t do it justice.
Here’s a full rundown of how Battlefield Portal works.
Battlefield Portal isn’t about literal time travel, but that’s functionally what’s going on here. Put simply, Portal is a player-driven community playground where folks can create their own custom servers using maps, characters, vehicles, and weapons from across four different Battlefieldgames:
Battlefield 1942
Battlefield Bad Company 2
Battlefield 3
Battlefield 2042
In other words, you can mash up any combination of tech from World War II, modern-day conflicts, and fictional near-future battles into a big, stupid soup of mayhem. The developers have some featured modes to choose from at top, but the real juice is in the server browser, where fans host custom games with a ton of different goofy rulesets.
I did a brief bit of testing just for the purpose of grabbing screenshots for this article and found all kinds of dumb-but-fun nonsense to play with. Several servers pitted small groups of 2042-era Specialistsagainst dozens of bots playing as WWII soldiers with comically small amounts of health. I spent a few minutes in the gunner’s seat of a future helicopter mowing down combatants from eight decades ago, who could only handle about one hit from my weapon before going down.
Why do people do this? Man, I dunno. It’s not my place to say. But it sure is fun for about five minutes.
There are more serious applications for Portal, too. You can create super hardcore servers without modern conveniences like regenerating health, the ability to aim down sights, and even disable the heads-up display (HUD) for the ultimate sweaty shooter experience. You can also turn off sprinting, in case you like trudging slowly around the game’s massive maps for some reason.
I wouldn’t call Battlefield Portal the main appeal of 2042, but it’s great that it’s there. If you spent $15 to pick up a game that some fans declared dead months ago, there are worse ways to spend time than hopping around in different Portal servers to see that the hectic, idiotic spirit of Battlefieldis still very much alive.
