64 players for bf really seems to be the sweet spot, 128 just makes the game seem like an unorganised ***********. It's weird, but if anything 128 players (in this pos at least) made the battles seem smaller as there seemed to be more smaller encounters taking place instead of a few larger scale encounters.

The worst bit is that they don't seem to have compensated on the vehicle side. At the start of the map if you take too long, you're going to get a good cardio workout in.
The game, on the whole is utter ****, there were plenty of stories doing the rounds that this was intended primarily as a f2p kind of game and focus shifted mid development so it got jury rigged into being the most unconvincing battlefield game of all time.
I can only imagine what was going on at EA considering BFV was also a failure and had tons of content cut due to them not wanting to support the game any further. This game also divebombing must have made the EA overlords very chuffed. Mind you all the warning signs were there, they barely released any gameplay footage prior to launch, on previous BF games weeks before launch we were getting hammered with footage.
I uninstalled this in August, and really i only had a couple dozen hours into it overall vs hundreds for previous games. Dice really need to up their game or this franchise is circling the water in the bog after the chain is pulled.

Which Battlefield game should I reinstall? Battlefield 3 or 4 or WW1 Battlefield 1 or 5? I want to get back into it and seems like 2042 is not worth getting....

more of the same really
reworked breakaway and manifest (more bits n bobs to provide cover)
few more portal weapons
classes
new operators etc (no details yet)
its not such a bad game now, but I don't feel like they are adding much, and what they are adding is taking aaaaages, i just think it would be better if they could do this quicker, but it was a big old mess on release

Back playing pretty regularly sice the October update mainly the input laf improvements make it a much better game.
Once they changes the specialists back to class system which is happening soon i hope it improves things even more.
Best modes imho are exodus conquest and flashback breakthrough.
Every night, until Warzone 2 surfaces
They can dress it up all they want, it's more **** on top of a steaming big mound of ****.
Bit of a joke that one of the new map changes isn't coming until 2023!!
