I bought Battlefield 3 on 28th December 2024 but havent played the game yet. But i m hearing n reading from everyone that the multiplayer of Battlefield 3 is currently dead... I bought both Battlefield 1 & Battlefield 3 so that i can play multiplayer but all i read everywhere in reviews n youtube videos n others that there r no more servers available for multiplayer in BF3.. so should i go for refund n buy Battlefield V instead? Can anyone plz clear me about this n suggest me?

Go for BF1 and BFV, these two are still good and popular...

I already have Battlefield 1 n dont want to play another world war game...since battlefield V is based on WW II... Just want to continue playing FPS with modern enviroment... Should i go for Battlefield IV instead? I have read many negative reviews about BF4 BF5 BF: Hardline & BF 2042

Should i buy BF4? Is BF4's multiplayer gud? I have heard the campaign mode for BF4 was not gud.. but since i care more about multiplayer mode than campaign should i take a chance?

BF4 has the best multiplayer but the campaign is not good.

played BF4 for over 12 years.....its beyond dead....your options now in the US are 2 server clans that like to DDOS each other.....player count is less then a 1000 people on most days......

Yes, BF3's MP is almost completely dead (on PC at least).

Battlefield 1 has one of the highest player numbers (at least +10K regular players) of all the older Battlefield games on PC so i would recommend that you stick with BF1 for now.

Battlefield 4 is not dead (yet), but i wouldn't call it thriving either, and there are only a handful of US/EU servers populated.

Oh s**t !! The winter+new year sale discount for games has ended n its now costs AUD $49.95 😭 i should have refunded n bought BF4 or Arma3 before the winter sale discount 😓 now its no use of refunding... I have to wait for another discount sale to buy the games now

You from Australia? then well just not playing bf4 since alive servers now are privately owned which mean they add codes to automatically kick all the high pings out. You wont find enjoyable experience btw. if you want a modern bf, just think about the 2042 instead. it isnt the best balanced game but its better than nothing.

yes the gameplay is good if you like a fast-paced gunplay due to the movement abusing. its like a grounded cod. i barely saw everyone loves the campaign in bf games so i dont have opinions on that

Nah bro, BF 2042 seems to be worse the graphics n gameplays... I have been asking others in person n in social medias n been watching review videos of BF 2042 n most of the people seems to be thrashing BF 2042 So i dont think i will buy 2042

I have a question guys, should i abandon my idea of buying BF 4 n buy ARMA 3 instead? How is ARMA 3 anyways? what will u guys choose if u had to choose between Battlefield or ARMA? People been saying ARMA 3/ARMA Reforger is the best "MilSim" game ever?
