They have actually fixed bf5 now. It's still brutal to new players who haven't unlocked gun perks yet, but once you've done that its one of the better titles.

Well, apart from the rampant hacking that is. And the servers going down over a bank holiday and no one at Dice being bothered about it. And the total lack of balancing. And the UI still being useless for round progress indication. But the Capt Cod skin is nice.
Why not have both like COD MW, but allow the Battle Royale option for people who have purchased the game only
This is applicable to every battlefield game ever made. The best one bf:bc2 has an unbelievably bad UI (the server list launches in a web browser now
), the carl gustaf was the most OP weapon since the golden gun in golden eye, server latency was always a joke and of course a few hackers too.I have rose tinted glasses for a lot of them, none of them were particularly polished games but i loved them a lot.

2142 is very underrated for me. It was my favourite and I wish they’d do a remake. They wouldn’t even need to change anything, just update the graphics.This is applicable to every battlefield game ever made.

sure, its just they completely squandered almost the entire release cycle of the game to get to a point that would have been good at release
I'm sure they lost a lot of players / potential players in the process
too many modes / ideas etc. at the start then do everything badly rather than focus on the core game, make it good then add to it later
Yep, my favourite of the bunch. I'd love for a similar setting.I mean, without the dolphin diving and awful knife hitreg

I still play BF1 often.
I hope BF6 is better than BF5.

I'm exactly the same. Would love BC3 but don't expect that in the slightest, so would then be shooting for a modern BF. Nothing crazy, just normal!
Also, I might just be getting old (might? Hmm...!) but the BF of old was a slower game. Ok there was always Karkand, or Metro, or Locker, but the other maps were generally a tad slower. Now it all seems about speed - CoD style. I just prefer the older pace

When people say they want a new bad company, what does that mean exactly. all i remember from it was getting frustrated by the nade, and tiny maps and constant out of bounds warnings

the thing I liked about BC2 was that you were not constantly getting shot in the back, there was always a "front line" that moved back and forward and people would get through if they worked together / pushed hard to break though the lines
it felt more realistic and lead to better matches IMHO
its more fun than the ABCDE flag zerging

Not really, just that maps were poorly design with a lot of bottlenecks or just small (even in Conquest), so the action got all together at a single point.
The best for me, by far, was BF2: better, larger maps, more classes, better commanding ladder, etc. Problems were with nade spamming and Dolphin diving.

If they can find their way back to the game play of BF2 and BF3 I will buy it. Those were the pinnacle for me. Since then its been a steady decline.

I forgot about dolphin diving! And yeah, the commander mode was cool - when it worked, it really worked.

i agree with the flag zerging its stupid, although i played conquest the most, but i feel its not hard to fix conquest. having been a joint ops player playing advance and secure has been the best mode i played and yet no other game i have played has used it.
