I love the series but wasnt a huge fan of One. Heard nothing but complaints about 5 but was just curious if its improved and still well populated on Xbox or PS4.

One was good and a nice change of pace. I was over it with V and the game just never felt right. I periodically give it another shot every few months and it never sticks. I'm probably done with it.

Bf1 was and still is amazing.

Bf5 is one giant clusterfrick that ignored everything that bf1 did right and highlighted everything battlefield has done wrong.

But hey, they finally released vehicle skin customization.

I've been a Battlefield guy since the beginning, but this game soured me on the franchise. Nothing was completely broken, but on the hand nothing was completely in-tune either. They seem to have completely ignored the community complaints and at times have been hostile to them.

Could have been a great game with lots of additional DLC material.

May go back to One. I liked it but just didnt get into as the much as the others. I may have just been burned out on BF period.

I find that most people that don’t like it feel that way bc of the wwi setting. The actual gun play and level design are amazing and the operations mode is wonderful. It’s a shame how they completely butchered that mode in 5.

They spent too much time and resources pandering to SJWs. Game was doomed from the beginning.

Need to bring back Bad Company. BFBC 2 was the most fun I’ve had in a shooter.

battlefield 5 never felt right, it's an ok game but they made many puzzling design decisions on this one. should've been amazing ,just do bf1 but with ww2 maps and guns. I guess that was too easy and obvious and instead we get this bf5 that isn't great

This was the beginning of the end. Bionic woman and later “don’t like it don’t buy it” was the kill shot. RIP.

Not really, the "bionic woman" was started by idiots that had no clue those braces actually existed so that died quickly when pointed out.

Game felt hollow, maps were questionable but the DLC maps have been great.

I finally quit playing a few months back but had fun with it overall.

Still agree with most BF players over the years that 5 has the best Battlefeel for gunfights.

Hopefully BC3 next year has the same/similar gun mechanics.

That is true.

I realllllly enjoyed the Beta. Actually so much so I preordered the game. Then after the “don’t buy it” comments, I canceled. I didn’t care a ton about the art or bionic woman (though it’s fun to poke fun at), I could tell the developers were going a different direction. First time I’ve been disappointed by Dice.

I was hoping the game would pull a BF4 and through patches become awesome. Bought it for $25 or $30. The patches eventually made the game worse with crazy TTK. The content was also sparse.

I’m praying we get a BF4 remaster on the PS5.

I have a group of buddies and we still play a good bit. The pacific maps are cool and there is a final big update coming this summer. I know people complain but we have fun. Give it a shot

Dice still has good Battlefield's in them, if EA would stop rushing them and give them time.

Whether it's BC3 or BF6 next year. Newest leaks/rumors say it is not BC3 but BF6.

Just saw where there is only one more planned content drop for the game and that’s it.

Live service

Seriously doubt I’ll ever buy another battlefield.

Go back to the modern formula and I'll buy it in a heartbeat.

So would most everyone here.
