BF5, Fortnite or New COD?

Ghuraba · 1 Oct 2019 at 17:10

Hi there

I am looking for a new online multiplayer game to play with good longevity and community for PC

Previous history is CS 1.5 up to Source and TF2, over 1000 hours on the latter.

What do you recommend? I have not played any of the above, no COD games, no Fortnite and last BF game I played was BF2. I played a few rounds on the new demo of COD and thought it was OK!

Pros and cons please :-)

None of them would be my choice, it depends what you want from an online game?

Last good battlefield was 3/4, the last great one being bad company 2. 1/V suck balls

Cod is just cod could get an older one and its not really evolved.

Fortnite is nothing like either.

I agree.

Maybe try Overwatch/Apex legends/R6 Siege?

Casual non competitive would be what I am looking at. Something you can spend 1-2 hours a day max on.

Overwatch gets my vote

Insurgency: Sandstorm

Agreed.

@OP: Overwatch has lost some popularity to battle royal type stuff, but given what you were into in the past I'd say it's a better option than the stuff you're looking at. It feels like a more objective driven TF2 with a larger roster in my opinion, although it's been years since I played TF2.

Maybe try Hell Let Loose?

I haven't tried the new COD so can't really bring that into my answer but BF5 is trash, i'd avoid that.

If you want to give it a try though why not sign up to EA access for a month?

I thought battlefield 1 was pretty good if I'm honest, battlefield V I agree though was terrible.

Of course, the best battlefield game was battlefield 2.

None. BF3, BFBC2 and maybe BF4. But none of the rest worth.
