Just give us 2143 already for gods sake
Hope its good! I havent been a fan of the last couple of BF games but have many many hours in bad company 2 and bf3
Just let it die already....
Seriously. The Battlefield series is by far my most played series of games with thousands of hours but BF5 really killed my interest and 2042 I purchased but only played like 20 minutes of. I find the Battle Royal stuff incredibly lame too. Part of this is just me aging out of the demographic I suppose, but this seems to be a common sentiment among the rest of the player base as well which is why 2042 flopped so hard.
I would love to go back to the mechanics that made Bad Company 2, BF3, and BF4 (despite their terrible buggyness for the first year or so) so wonderful. The kind of maps that you could play over and over and still have a great time (Operation Metro). Quit trying to copy the mechanics of other games because if I wanted to play like that, I would be playing those games instead.
This is probably all a moot point at this stage as I just find myself drawn to simple games on the Switch like Mario Kart, Kirby and Zelda, the Lego series, and barely ever touch any massive games like this outside of the Soulsborne games (currently gave up on Elden Ring but enjoying the Demons Souls remake)
I'm personally offended you didn't list BF1942 in your list of fun games. It was broken in so many hilariously fun ways. How much fun is it to be a sniper flying on the wing of a plane? Or suicide bomb a person in a plane only to eject and pop your parachute 1ft above the ground safely? Or to park your tank with the turret inside the door of a spawn point just blasting away?
That was before I got into the games. I began playing when BC2 had been out for a while.
Probs just half baked garbage. Won't look like the trailer at all.
