Not sure if you are talking to me~ I've been playing since BC1 ♥ ttk was significantly better in those earlier games because it didn't rely on some crappy meta statistic for a gun or class. The higher power weapons were hidden behind locked levels and special permissions (I am looking at you M1 Garand.)

These guns kill faster - been like that since only BFV when they intentionally tried to make the game higher skill cap. The end result wasn't that though, since people can effectively cheat that system with recoil scripts and turn most of the weapons into lasers as a result. Causing SMGs etc to even outgun an AR at ranges that would have been impossible in prior games. To compete, they also reduced controller recoil by 30% and upped the aim assist. Short TTK and an easier time on controller has made it too much like CoD.

You will die a lot in this game due to this and the weaker netcode - getting knocked while behind cover is reminiscent of BF1 at release (before they fixed the netcode).

There are other gripes like a gutted vehicle weakpoint system and wingsuits that ruin the frontline feel of older BF games, but we could go on for days about all the minor bad decisions.

That said, I still enjoy playing from time to time because the CoD alternative to big modes is in every way possible just way worse. It's in a much better state than at launch but not one the the top BF games, for sure. Hopefully the next game goes back to the pre-BFV days of BF4/1.

The only really great thing is that this is the first game in the series to have complete crossplay. It's easy to find a match unless you're in a very low gaming pop region to begin with.

My humble review:
The game stinks everywhere, yes it's fun if you choose the right day, time and team, otherwise it happens like yesterday... a perfect game with 3 players on my team, all in sync, perfect game. .. and here comes the clown of the day, killing all of his own team....

People have complained about everything, even snipers, so now everyone know where they are hiding. The most stupid thing, because the snipers need to be....hidden!.

So all weapons balanced….it doesn't matter which one you use, one shot to the head and that's it, if not, several shots, get the most ammo you can carry and save the day.

But since this is not a battlefield game but a fortnite on small maps, everyone is in the same place; shooters, tanks, snipers, helicopters, planes, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ chaos that there is nowhere to take it, forget about tactics or strategies, and remember the first video they released 2 years ago?, it showed a tactical attack with slow movements... laughts please....

If you're playing against bots, be prepared, it's the dumbest AI you'll ever see in a combat game, they don't take positions, they don't hide behind walls, they don't hide in ruins or inside houses, they don't shot behind windows, they come at you head-on with two "cojones", even if you have a tank or a rocket launcher and they stand in front of you to shoot with a rifle, with a bazooka, or a smoke granada, whatever, the circus arrive!... if the AI uses a plane, it will end up crashing into you, because they have programmed it for that.

Did you see the bots moving?, whats this?, its like this:

There are no cheaters, just a small group of haters who complain that cheaters are better than them (note the sarcasm). If you complait about this in EA forum, EA will close the thread, period.

But yeah, sometimes it's a lot of fun, actually I still play it.

Oh there are tons of actual cheaters in this game. You have various forms of cheating going on in the game itself as well from controller hardware hacks, software hacks like aimbot, walling, so on so forth. You also have people who ddos and use exploits (yes thats still cheating) and you have people who glitch around. EAC isn't a very reputable anti cheat, everyone and their next of kin know this. You should really stop spreading misinformation, its very disreputable... All it takes is a simple, single google search and the cheat software and hardware are available for you to get or purchase.

It didn't read that way. Honestly.
It's so fk terrible. I wish I could refund it. Even for 15€. 70% just crashes. The rest visual Bugs and tanks. No teamplay. A very bad CoD.

please separate in world voice overs from the sound effects audio option. There's no way to mute the voices without muting all other sounds in the game

Lame as ♥♥♥♥. Get battlebit

Nah, it went from being very bad to being tolerably-mid.
BiltongBoer Jul 10, 2023 @ 12:14am 
For the current sale price, yes. For full price is a hard no.

It's been good for over a year now and people keep asking this. Just reinstall it and play.

As it is, for sure. If you dont want to buy it, it's always on Gamepass and more than worth the time. Also, for that one guy who somehow believes that theres 30k people playing on all platforms when Xbox and Playstation dont disclose player counts (lol) Queue times are rarely more than 20 seconds, and the games fun as hell. Just ignore the hate that people spread because they have nothing better to do
