Battlefield 4 or Black Ops 3

I've always been a Battlefield fan but are people still playing BF4 or have they moved on to Hardline/Black Ops?

I'm looking for a fun game, nothing too serious or frustrating.

People are still playing BF4. Hardline wasn't nearly as good.
I'd go for BF4. It's the best FPS so far this gen IMO.

People definitely still play BF4.

But they're two way different games, obviously.

I've moved away from BF4 recently(to BO3) because I had a hard time finding matches that didn't take 30-40+ minutes to finish, only using a select few 'favored' maps or single map types.

If you are a BF fan, then it's hard not to recommend BF4 if you haven't played it yet. Just be aware the community is a bit more 'focused' at this stage with people quite set in their ways. Game is continually being supported, though.

This.

Domination on bf4 is my favourite online experience this gen.

Great, thanks! I've gone for BF4.

Is there still a big player base on PS4 for BF4?

Another BF4 fan here. :cool:

FPS on a console is soooo wrong using a controller!!!! it's got to be a mouse/keyboard....on a PC!!

Agreed but I needed something to play over Christmas while in the UK so bought a PS4 and I'll suffer the controller for a few weeks!

I went on last Saturday and there were loads of full servers up. I like to play 64 player conquest and I can find games right away.

Used to play this loads on the 360, for some reason i've not bothered getting this on the PS4, PSN deals or no PSN deals, but seen it's going for £12.99 new so i think a quick pop to the shops is in order tonight!

I'm getting old, I prefer the slower pace of console shooters with everyone using the same controller.

BF4 can be had digitally for £10, its a fantastic game online and still very active

Another vote for BF4, My lad has BO3 and it's awful imo.

Although you made the choice already, its pretty clear you made the right one. I was going to say BF4 also. I have just brought BO3 but more for the Zombies with my pal then the multiplayer.

BF4 is still a lot of fun.

despite being shooters they are chalk and cheese really.

There are plenty playing BF4 still, very few moved to hardline. Some have moved to battlefront. but neither star wars or hardline are true battlefield games.

Others will have moved to completely different games like fallout 4
