So, when exactly are EA going to close bf3 on PC too? It is inevitable now. And even if they dont, retarded admins are killing whats left of this game.

Reinstalled BF1 & 2042. Was happy to find BF1 has plenty of my fellow shitters on it; had a good time screwing around on conquest but hoping I can find some "In The Name of the Tsar" operations matches during prime time because it looked like mostly vanilla map shit by the time I got on.

Gonna try out 2042 again to see about the dlc weapons because I havent played it since launch, but I'm really not looking forward to playing the launch maps.

Could never get into BFV for some reason, I dont understand how they fucked that up so badly.
>>
>>1496485
Just bought 2042 since it was on sale and have been having some fun with it.
Its a struggle to find full lobbies though, any tips for late night players?
>>1499663
BFV has leaning and pretty good attention to detail. What dont you like about it gameplay wise?
>>
>>1500263
Just spent an hour searching for a playable lobby and there was none.
Just constantly puts me in empty lobbies waiting to start then fills it with bots. Every game mode is like this Im fucking done.
>>
bf4 is so much better, and there's a lot of people still playing it
>>
>>1500346
Really? It does look pretty sweet but will I really be able to find a full server without bots at all times of the day from NA?
>>
>>1500346
So much better at what?
>>
>>1496924
aesthetics wise it's the best, love it
gameplay is alright, could be a bit better
>>
>>1500263
Mostly don't care for the maps or how they seperate them into different categories, but also don't care for the weapon attachment/specialization system (didn't like like BF1's either at first but it grew on me). Kind of hard to remember the rest that put me off about it at this point, but I installed/uninstalled it 2 or 3 times
>>
>>1500625
Also think that I just wanted a modern era BF at that point. I really shouldn't have liked BF1 as much as I did, come to think of it, but eventually learned to have fun trolling w/ all of the goofy equipment, novelty vehicles, and double barrel shotgun. Also really liked the maps and aesthetic thereof.

Oh and community servers fucking suck simply by being stuck mostly on played-out vanilla maps.

Yeah, bf premium (for literally every bf that has it) was given away for free countless times
There is no excuse for them
>>
>>1508939
the non-DLC maps tend to be more popular is that not a good enough reason?
>>
>>1508957
Still not a good enough reason for 90% servers to have same vanilla maps
>>
>>1508957
>>1508971
I was confused why I couldn't find any dlc only servers, as I'm sure servers like that would fill up quickly. I pretty much always wind up preferring dlc maps in the end due to burning out on launch maps.

I just reinstalled it the other day. I've only played a couple times but there's almost always been multiple full servers. I could find a filled server even around like 1AM. You do have to use battlelog to see the actual playercounts because the ingame browser lies.
>>
>>1513088
I should clarify, I was still using the ingame browser when I played late at night and had to hunt around for an actual full server. Possible there were still multiple filled up even then.

Can someone tell me the difference between the Elite Edition and Standard Edition of 2042?
I'm getting it because it's cheap ($5) right now for standard or $12 for the Elite edition.
But if the difference between the two is minimal anyway I want to get the cheapest one obviously.

What I know is that people are saying to not get the Elite edition because you can unlock everything in the standard edition anyway. All I want to know now is how hard is it to unlock? Is the unlocking as hard as it was in BF1 where I haven't even unlocked all the specializations there because of how specific it is? Or easy unlock, like for example, kill 100 enemies with weapon or something?

Battlefield games have always been plagued by the lowest of the low hogging planes.
Before current spawn system there used to be airfields (and even a pilot class I think) way outside the playable area and like 10 of these drones would be lurking there waiting for a single plane to spawn.
I've hated them back then and I hate them today. Cancer of the series.

Are operation servers dead in NA?

Classic BF has way better gameplay but somehow the netcode is 10x worse than nuBF. Which is a really low bar to clear.

It is not a simple fake player count anymore
It is fake players to make you join their server
I've seen up to eight of them "play" on the same server

i have been playing a lot of bf1 recently, haven't really kept up with the series since battlefield 2 & 3

i dont find bf1's gameplay to be very "battlefield"... there are a lot of maps that are essentially just small, narrow corridors divided into chokepoints, and you're lucky to see any vehicles

is bf4 worth getting into in current day and year? is battlefield v more open or does it suffer from similarly poor map design as bf1?
>>
>>1538459
Idk why would you need bf4 If you have bf3
No clue about bf v


Unrelated but i got to play bc2 only in 2024 and this was the most fun battlefield ever
>>
The series is on sale. Which is the best to buy based on gameplay and population?
I'm thinking BF5 for ww2 but idk, I own hell let loose already.
Can you share/coop vehicles?
Do the bf games have eomm and/or other fucky matchmaking?

What exactly do people mean when they say bf3 is old? It is 13 years old, but does it make it worse than the new games? What does it lack? Skins? Sliding? The ability to dodge bullets by jumping around? Running around like you are on meth or something? Shooting? Weapon variety? Copypaste customisation? Superhero abilities? I don't get people who say it is old and unplayable

Also it is surreal that people who started playing with bf3 are now considered veterans of the series

is bf3 the most kino? just looking back, the sound, the realism, the overall atmosphere/immersion, etc.; it was just so peak.

It is. It got most things right

2042 has bots in matchmaking right?
>nobody using the chat, in a series, where 90% of the community is constantly bitching off in chat about what tactics they think are gay

BF3 was considered mediocre for the time but it brought it a lot of new players to the series through the console market.
>>1538459
BF4 is just BF3 but they listened to the common complaints like the 30 tickrate servers and removing the BLUE. BF4 has shitty OP air vehicles and too many "noob farming" servers, if you do play BF4, avoid any server claiming to be noob friendly.
BF1 and BFV both have the same star wars battlefront map design.

I enjoy 4 but 3 will always be better. Feels better in every way except that 4 has more guns / customization.

they are both equally dead and infested with autists living there for 10+ years, but I say 3 because of better maps, gunplay and overall feel
>>
>>1553164
>they are both equally dead
This is why I hate EA and DICE. They could have polished BF3 to perfection, but instead they shat out (still broken) BF4 to make more money and divided the playerbase as a result
>>
>>1554402
i hate multiplayer sequels so much mainly the third entry to stuff. It distinguishes the men from the npcs. Often times sequels will have major flaws npcs won’t bother to see through. Arma 3, Dayz standalone, Halo 3, Quake 3, W:ET, Counter Strike 2, Warcraft 3 reforged, Starcraft 2. AoE 3, Crysis 2, Killzone 3, Gears of War Judgement, Civ 5, GMod 10. Sequels have always been ruining playerbases in favor of a worser game.

EA is NOTORIOUS for killing off games right around when they become playable/enjoyable

BF1: Discontinued updates right after the gave got a good set of updates and balancing patches.

Battlefront 2: Discontinued support the minute they realized they couldn't cash in off gachapon shit and left a nearly perfect game to rot.

Battlefield V: They released the pacific update, added new armies, weapons, balanced the TTK issues and then fucked off instead of building on the success despite having an all time high player base.

So they'll probably start closing down servers for BF3 and BF4 in the coming years like they did for the OG BF2, possibly after the next Battlefield comes out.

Honestly good riddance. Last good Battlefield was 2142 before EA bought DICE. BF3 was such a disappointment. Meanwhile you can still find private servers for BF2 filled with people.
