It’s been an up and down month for EA’s ambitious multiplayer shooter. BF2042’s third and final game type was belatedly unveiled: Hazard Zone is a squad-based mode in which teams of four compete to extract data drives from downed satellites. That came after a response to its online beta that could generously be described as ‘mixed’ – sufficient for the publisher to release a statement admitting that the build it had made available was months old. Having been postponed once already, could its launch be delayed again? We wouldn’t bet against the above date having changed by the time you read this.
