Battlefield 2042 Ad Blatantly Ripped Off by Chinese Naval Ship Game. Side by Side Comparison

Battle Warship: Naval Empire ripped off the Battlefield 2042 ad for Battlefield Portal for their own (mobile) game. Check out this side-by-side comparison.

excaliburps1302d ago

I think this is the first time I've seen a video game ad be ripped off. I mean, games, controllers, sure. But an ad?? LOL!

Christopher1302d ago

Far from the first time, sadly. Mobile games do it almost monthly. They just tend to aim at older games that aren't running their ads actively or smaller stuff no one pays attention to.

Nitrowolf21302d ago (Edited 1302d ago )

The cyberpunk 2077 music tops it off for me Because you know how many bugs are associated with that game lol so it’s just ironic

Timzster1302d ago

Talk about blatant rip off lol.

MadLad1302d ago

How do they have this much financial backing, yet we still see blatant plagiarism from one of the biggest studios, under one of the largest publishers?

hoodrat1301d ago

China has a growing economy that it going to pass the us soon. You can't afford to not do business nwith them.

MadLad1301d ago

This comment confuses me.

They aren't doing business with anyone here. This is literally a case of an American company; a large one, ripping off the ad of a Chinese made mobile game.

This has nothing to do with business. It's simple plagiarism.

SinisterKieran1302d ago

This is the second time in recent memory that I’ve seen this. Hey did it to ffxiv shadowbringers trailer too. How do they get away with it? Can they not be sued?

Christopher1302d ago

It's China. You'd have to sue them there. Good luck with that.

Darkborn1302d ago

Can't wait to see the lawsuit lol.

hoodrat1301d ago

Lol doesn't happen in china

Wow, another site writing entire articles based off a single reddit comment.

pwnmaster3000234d ago

Just redownloaded the game. I wonder if it is still active

Steve_Gamer234d ago

Yeah it will be, the game just recently got a Update 1.59 Patch in September.

Interesting and understandable lol

Vince Zampella: Battlefield "Absolutely Can" Outsell Call of Duty; BF2042 Was Not a "Failure"

Battlefield franchise boss thinks Battlefield "absolutely can" outsell Call of Duty, but says they're not targeting that with the next entry.

TheNamelessOne253d ago

Feel like if that were true, we would have seen it during the BF3/4 era. Just focus first on releasing a Battlefield that's actually feature complete, well put together, that people actually want to play right out of the gate. Hoping Zampella can make this happen.

JEECE253d ago

The best opportunity was BF1 vs. Infinite Warfare. I've never actually seen a worldwide sales comparison so I'm not convinced BF1 didn't eventually win, but I do know COD sold better in the US at launch, because it was the NPD #1 that year, while BF was #2.

SonyStyled253d ago

The best opportunity was with BC2 and BF3. BF4 dropped the ball with a short campaign and bugged multiplayer at launch

Cacabunga253d ago

Release a decent game and let the mouth to eat do the rest.. you choose to release another BF4 then blame yourselves for it

JEECE252d ago

@SonyStyled

Definitely not BC2. I love the Bad Company games (even though everyone always pretends the first one didn't exist), but even though BC2 has achieved great respect in hindsight, at the time it came out a lot of casuals who bought COD every year either didn't know of Battlefield's existence or saw it as a knockoff of COD. Plus coming out in spring 2010 it was competing against MW2 (the original one) which came out the prior fall.

ChronoJoe253d ago

I mean, the title of the game doesn't have a lot to do with how it sells. The next game is not going to change things but Zampella course change the course of the series towards something that's more on track with that those big player numbers.

With that said, battlefield fans might not want that. To acquire the wider audience they would probably need to betray a lot of the series design principles. Call of Duty is as popular as it is because it is as simple as it is.

"BF2042 Was Not a "Failure"

Suuuuuuure thing little buddy...

excaliburps253d ago

In his defense, BF2042 did turn things around eventually though still falls short of franchise expectations if you based it on BF4, BF3, BF1.

trez1082253d ago

Hated it at lunch, came back a two years after and it was an absolute blast. Not sure how it did sales wise to be called failure or success but BF2042 is a pretty good game .

ElaBosak252d ago

In what way was it a failure exactly?

Outside_ofthe_Box253d ago

Microsoft would just buy EA if that happens.

8bitAssassin253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

We don't need more games ruined. It's like that company puts water on their bread before they eat it.

Inverno253d ago

Here we go again with rubbing mouths. BF has been a flop consistently since BF4, and I mean flop as in disappointing to the fan base due to the technical issues each has had and the gameplay changes needlessly made. Shut up and make a good BF before hyping up another potential disappointment.

Fishy Fingers253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

Bro gave one pretty decent interview and answered the questions he was asked. Not really his fault if people want to cherry pick quotes for "content".

Stick to reading source https://www.ign.com/article...

X-23253d ago

I don't mind them claiming BF2042 wasn't a failure so long as they learned from it and use that experience moving forward into the new game, it was terrible at launch but towards the end it got a bit better. I don't want to see the same thing play out with the new BF though because the ones who are still interested in the franchise have been pretty vocal with what they want and don't want from Battlefield.

ElaBosak252d ago

Learn what exactly? The game was great.
