These influencers must be making generational wealth from EA peddling this sad excuse of a garbage "Battlefield" game

What was the last good Battlefield game? 3? Bad Company 2?

>>717577795
3 and arguably 4
bf1 was the deathblow of battlefield
This braindead hollywood ""ww1"" deathmatch being a hit is what caused the franchise to completly failed in the decade that followed
when i saw people called this abomination one of the best bf i knew we where fucked beyond belief and i was right 100%

>>717577795
BF1.

>>717577795
3
4 only if you're console pleb and couldn't experience 64 players

>>717577747 (OP)
Doubt it, they just need to shit out mediocre content glazing this game for couple of months when it is still relevant
The same faggots will make "Battlefield 6 - what went wrong?" Videos 6 months from now, dw about it.

>>717577795
The one you played first.
If you started with 3 then that's the last good one for you, if you started with BC2 then that's your chosen one.
Real Battlefield players know that the series has been shit since the Secret Weapons expansion for 1942.

I remember back in 2011 when people were absolutely shitting on BF3. And again 2013 with BF4.
Like the other anon said, people are going to answer with whichever they played first.
I was introduced to the series with BF3 in 2011 and absolutely loved it. Tried BC2 and didn't like it.
Now everyone is glazing BF3 and BF4 with rose-tinted glasses like they didn't think it was a knock-off COD and the end of the series.

>>717577795
Battlefield Vietnam

>>717578360
This is the correct answer

>>717577795
Bad company 2 (and its Vietnam DLC), even if the helicopter rape got old real fast it was still a fun game

>>717577747 (OP)
Always been
>>717577795
yes

>>717578338
My first BF was BF4, which I bought in 2017. Played it for 2000 hours (it stopped being fun after ~700 hours), bought BF3 in 2024 and never looked back. Already 700+ hours and it's just as fun. Also tried BF1 but uninstalled after 2 hours, way too boring. "Immersion" and "Atmosphere" arent enough for me

Bf1 had shittier gameplay but probably has the best graphics and concept out of all of them.

If you mean gameplay then bf4.

Bc2 has the most destruction out of all of them but ends up breaking the game.

>6 gorillion player count
>game can't find 16 players

>>717577889
>bf1 was the deathblow of battlefield
At least it still had a functional server browser. But yeah i have mixed feelings on BF1 too and I'm more partial to BF4 and 3. I personally believe V was the real downfall. I'm not as pessimistic as most refractor era players though, despite being one of them. But now I'm pessimistic.

I know a lot of BF fans don't like the smaller scale of BC2 but to me it was the most fun. You had more impact on the game while it still being Battlefieldy. I bought the latest game on sale for like 5€ and it was pretty shit

maybe im a schizo but i dont think ive ever seen a game come out with such fervent influencer-based marketing. and it's not just the usual #ad #sponsored streams, i think they are also paying random indians to make "battlefield is SO back" meme shorts on youtube and paying google to boost them via the algorithm.

i honestly have trouble visualizing a "battlefield fan" under the age of 28. the last 4 battlefield games were a slow slide from mediocrity to garbage. the whole marketing push seems to entirely revolve around the new game being like bf4 (just like bf2042 but this time for real lol), but bf4 came out in 2013 and everyone who worked on it has already quit, so really who gives a fuck

I haven't played a Battlefield game since Bad Company 2 but I'm almost interested in BF6...I'm almost certain that current EA is worse than EA was 15 years ago though, and they were already pretty shit back then.

>>717578338
i cant speak for others but iirc bf3 faced a lot of negative feedback for being a bit like a compromise between bc2 action movie mechanics and esoteric bf2 autism. both groups disliked it for basically the opposite reasons. i was most upset that they stopped designing maps around rush, which made rush shit to play and conquest, as always, is just shit. i understand why people enjoy conquest but the retarded musical chairs shit where you get run over by a tank or a little bird every 2 seconds just fucking sucks. i'd rather they design a new gamemode than try to do conquest again

>>717579973
bf3 had the new engine too right? I remember my computer didn't handle the beta it very well so I didn't buy it because of that

>>717577889
>OMG I LOVE METRO!!!
BF3 sucked

>>717577795
Heroes

>>717580146
i think it was the same engine as bc2 but they really stacked on the graphics so the system requirements were for more like a 2013 game. it was a main reason why people upgraded their PCs back then

>>717578227
BF3>BF1942>BF2>Vietnam>BF6>BC2
Everything else is unplayable trash

millennial uncs whining about how the game is too hard and begging for sbmm

>>717578338
>I remember back in 2011 when people were absolutely shitting on BF3. And again 2013 with BF4.

They had godawful releases. They were not the games they are today after years of development and bugfixing.

>>717577795
4 had a notoriously bad launch, but built itself up to the one of the best modern shooters of all time, and I still play it to this day.

>>717577747 (OP)
They are and have been doing so the past decade.

>>717578338
>you remember yourself going in a shitty edgy website that was populated only by nerd idiot
That very different from remembering that the general pubblic hated bf3.
in 2011 the Youtube gaming community was bare bone and /v/ was only for nerd.
You lack of IQ.

>>717577747 (OP)
these are easily some of the worst maps ive ever seen in a shooter
its genuinely impressive how bad they are

I was "watching" some dude on Twitch for 30 minutes to get the code and he legit got like 2 subs per second.

Lol, you are being fooled by th emost obv shill campign and in your head is "lE zOoMeR" fault.
No wonder u are 40y and still spend 10h a day on this shitty website.

>>717577795
I've seen people claim that BF 4 was the best of all time so many times now that I'm convinced it must be true.

>>717577795
V
the downfall was V's reveal trailer, the dev/fan slapfight that came afterwards, and eventually EA bringing the hammer down on DICE and ultimately encouraging the devs to leave and make a new studio. the battlefield team no longer exists.

>>717577795
BF3.
They made 8 good Battlefield games before it started going to shit.
What's surprising is there's also 8 good Call of Dutys, 8 good Need for Speeds and 8 good Tony Hawk games too. Not that relevant to this thread but I find it interesting that big franchises shit the bed after 8 titles.

Most gaymin influencers make fuck all which makes it even worse, they're wage slaving so they can repeat the corporate line.

>>717578227
>The one you played first.
i would not agree, i played 4 battlefield games before bc2 and i enjoyed it the most at the time. but imo bf4 holds up the best (but is still unplayable due to hackers)

>>717577795
3 was absolute garbage. the beginning of the end where they walked back mod support and were too stupid to figure out destructible terrain (something they advertised in the beta). anyone who has nostalgia for that crap is an absolute zoomtard

>>717578227
My first was 1942 and I prefer 3.

inb4
>exception doesn't make the rule
there are many cases across many different mediums proving first = best wrong

>>717581410
There's also 8 good Castlevania, Final Fantasy, and Pokemon games(mainline + spinoff)

I wake up with a Xanax and dayquil. For breakfast I have Advil II, a few of them.
Around lunch I take a multivitamin, vitamin D, C, E, and various Bs
Dinner zzzquil mixed with nyquil.

>>717577795
I don't get why people put down Battlefield 1 so much, if you consider operations the main game mode instead of conquest I find Battlefield 1 to have some of the best map design in all of Battlefield, also, insane graphics and art direction and sound design, I truly think it's the most cinematic Battlefield game and you don't even have to do fake E3 movement do get that feeling, you feel like that just by playing the game normally.

>>717577747 (OP)
I hope they're making barely minimum wage working 18 hours a day 7 days a week knowing full well they'll be doing this until the day they die

>>717577747 (OP)
Operations/Breakthrough is a vastly superior game mode compared to conquest I don't know how people endure that boring ass game mode, I guess this also xplains why I was such a fan of operation metro and locker while abunch of people out there complained about it being shit.
>But muh grenade spam
True but they should balance the grenade throws and make them twice as slow, I never wanted battlefield ot be excessively fast and zoom zoom, I just like the feeling of a great battle all around me

>>717581245
Battlefield V is actually quite fun but the weirdass aesthetic they went for was stupid as fuck, World War 2 is something many people are familiar with and is attached with a set of expectations, but they tried to make this bizarro bastardized wokefied version of it for no reason??? And the complete censoring of nazis too lmao.

>>717578608
Nigga Battlefield 1 is many things but I wouldn't say boring is one of the, that games is the most chaotic and bombastic one,

>>717582463
that would explain a lot

>>717579973
Breakthrough is just better rush, many battlefield 1 maps were designed around breakthrough and they play like a dream in that game mode, whilst conquest sucks balls, I'm scared that BF6 will be designed way too much around conquest and breakthrough won't be as fun anymore.

>>717578227
I started with bf2 tho and bf3 and bad company were just as good. 4 was just 3 on repeat.

Don't care. Shit's fun.

I'll just stick with 4 and 5 thank you very much

>>717579746
EA is going "all in" on this game, so they're prob spending hundreds of millions on advertising.

>>717587365
its funny to me how theyre just plain pretending that 2042 doesn't exist. probably would have been cheaper to fix it up and soft-relaunch it like many other studios have with failed launches, but instead they just made a new game lol

>>717582573
Bf1 is the best battlefield game. Possibly the best FPS of all time. This board is full of retards.

>>717585146
For about an hour until the zoomie twitch gameplay and horrendous hitreg suck every bit of enjoyment out of you again

>>717577795
BFV unironically. BF6 feels like a shitty version of BFV.

>>717587365
Ah yes, count your chickens before they hatch. Just setting yourself up for successs.

Nah. The game corpos give them a free copy if they are the type to only say positive things and blindly follow orders. Literally every YouTuber reviewing any product acts like it’s a panacea.
