not sure if i missed it, but bf4 had much more "detail map design" that convinced you you are in a battefiled, where as BF2042 had unbelievably sterile maps (supposedly in an utopic future). Also, i see way more "meaningful" building destruction in BF4 than in BF2042. First and last pre-order for me for sure. And I really need conving to go back to BF. I rather play BF4 while i still can.

No sorry kids, you had to be there for bf1942. BF3 was when they started to pivot the series to be a direct competitor to CoD and every other multiplayer FPS on the market. People were stoked for BF3 because it was a return to a classic especially in light to some of the things in MW2 (eg dedicated servers, laying off the original devs of CoD4) rather than new innovation. BF1942 and it’s mod, desert combat, are pretty janky but really were something new. It really felt like a sandbox to play in rather than the tailored and managed experience designed to hook even the most ADHD addled brain so they can get the largest market share.

There is no genuine reason why in the three years between BF5 and BF2042 that the dev team couldn't make a game that was playable. Content is one thing, and gaming has been suffering from that greed up top for a good decade at this point; however, in the past few years pretty much all AAA titles release basically unplayable. Not going to get into the reasons on why devs today are terrible, but fuck me AAA gaming has been starved of good devs for a very long time now.

​@@venjo639 Ehhh I wouldn't quit console entirely tbh, the Japanese developers like FromSoft, Nintendo, even Capcom, Sega and Square Enix still pump out amazing titles like Street Fighter 6, Armored Core 6, Tears Of The Kingdom, FF16 and the 7 Remakes and the Yakuza series, there's also the indie devs and occasionally you'll get the multiplayer games that are actually fun like Helldivers or The Finals

Hardline was actually good and gets to much hate for no reason, what other game offers cops and robbers in a grand scale where firing RPG's at moving cars from other cars is the most normal thing!? sure it aint no military shooter but it wasnt trying to be. what happened to BFV and 2042 though...now that deserves the hate, how did we go from the marketing being the reason not to buy, and now the marketing being a true battlefield and the game itself being anything but a true battlefield

What’s so sad to me is that battlefield portal had insane potential, just to see it go to waste :(. Honestly they could release an battlefield portal standalone game and build upon it with maps/weapons/assets from all throughout the franchise, would be so cool!

Pandering, Micro transactions, Never ending reboots. The three things that have killed modern gaming

Bf 3 or 1 just felt like playing a game version of Black Hawk Down or Dunkirk, while Bf 2042 felt like a generic game adaption of what Fast and Furious 25 would look like

One bit of critical info you missed about 2042 was the game was originally being made as a Battle Royale only game, hence why we got 128p, way too big and open maps, specialists etc etc. Pretty sure it was confirmed by an insider at EA, and generally easy to speculate given the layout of the game.

@snzr Yup, to make it worse with Hazard Zones fail too 💀💀. I remember seeing Tom Henderson tweet about it, DICE scrapped and re built 2042 over a year into development or something.

Just had a look at 2042 and the first thing I saw was an add on that cost £17.99. Not for a load of maps, just a few shitty costumes and a load of tat. That's what it's come to now, just a vehicle to sell you a load of crap. Shame.

I agree with most points made. After MW19 came out I didn’t really play BF5 much anymore. Battlefield up until that point always felt like it had the best graphics and animations over cod but now it’s the other way around which is kind of sad.

Yeah I feel the same. BF1 beat CoD IW in 2016, then in 2019 things changed and CoD MW beat BF5 in pretty much everything. Now they both fail, MW3 is a failure and BF2042 is boring and unplayable. I just hope they get it together, but so much talent left BF recently.

First Battlefield game I played was 1943. It was a 1 or 2 hour demo and I fell in love. Unfortunately it was the last day of summer vacation and my day refused to buy it. Eventually I got it and then moved on the Bad Company 2 and I was dedicated to the franchise until 2042. Made so many friends along the way and I’ll be forever grateful. Great video memorializing the franchise. Hopefully this era of battlefield will be a thing of the past but I doubt it.

I love bf. I remember the first time I switched from cod to bf, and i told myself that I would never go back to CoD again with games like bf3. Bf1 is still imo, the best bf game out of the past 15 years. The immersion, the gore, the movement gameplay graphics soundtrack god, what a fucking game!

I love the service star system, I have not forgotten it. I mentioned it in newer videos that it’s something DICE need to bring back with leaderboards. I think T1 system was good because it rewards free skins, so why not have both? 😀

BF3 and BF4 were the peak of the series, still playing BF4 to this day.

Listen as someone who has played battlefield as their main game since 1942, I won’t defend battlefield V too much, but saying the gunplay wasn’t good because of random recoil is hilarious. Random bullet deviation from BF4 (and 2042 for some time) makes for some of the most frustrating gunplay ever. BFV guns at least shoot where the sights are…That was the main reason dice said they increased the TTK for the first time, new players were getting destroyed by long time battlefield and FPS players and they even said it was causing new players to leave. BFV and BF3 have the best gunplay in the series and I hope they never return to random bullet spread like they did with 2042 on launch. I will agree with you though that BF3 is the best in the series, truly a worthy successor to BF2

Great video but why is it that everyone always fails to acknowledge how bf1s life cycle literally signaled what was to come with the franchise. That game had us waiting 6 months for the first expansion, broken weapons, and overall poor communication from dice. A lof of the problems listed in bf5 literally started in bf1. Its frustrating that people really gloss over that.

Imagine getting so bad your consumers tried to like cod after bf5 and 2042.... What a collapse.

I understand many are frustrated with recent changes and decisions involving DICE. While DICE is responsible for development, it's important to note that EA, as the parent company, significantly influences these decisions. EA's cost-saving measures and financial strategies can impact the quality and direction of the games we love. Ultimately, it's EA that holds the major responsibility for these outcomes.

With the recent fallout about the works of these creative consulting firms like SBI, we now begin to understand why in BF5 a strong, powerful disabled woman was showed into a WWII front line for absolutely no reason at all. That BF5 as was also the definitive mark where players would realize the best days for BF are over.

battlefield is dead for me the game is awful no content bad maps I feel playing battlefield 2042 is like a cancer

I played the Hardline Beta for about 40 hours when it was out. There were three maps iirc, those being Dust Bowl, Downtown and Bank Job. One thing I remember from the Beta vs Retail version was the progression was very noticably downgraded and the game felt way more grindy, I think the battlepacks literally went up in price 10x. I personally loved every second of the Beta, some very fond memories there, I actually still have a handful of videos from it on my channel.

BF3 was the first multi-player game I unlocked everything for. This game was just different back then that you had to experience.

2042 gutted the social features, chat taken away, no servers, no platoons, not even persistent lobbies. I made many friends from BF4 back in the day, even just starting out as killing eachother in a pub match and ending up on TeamSpeak together. I still talk to these friends today, nearly a decade later. The new game just does not let you do this easily, it’s almost ashamed of the idea that you can communicate.

@@AnonymousMachine dont get me wrong, having fresh faces in lobbies has its perks to a degree, but it is so limited. To this day I can join a BF4 locker server and say hello, and I get 3-7 responses from familiar faces, even if we aren't friends, its a community. Maybe even just having a server to play 3 rounds with the same folks and you end up talking more and making friends from funny run ins or situations. When 2042 launched I remember a Sundance landing on my jet, staring at me before the roadkill happened, and I was laughing my butt off but there was zero way to use all chat to talk about it or just share the moment. The fact it came back and is turned off by default is sad, some folks aren't even aware it is an option.

People really undersell how damaging historical revisionism can be in games. It's insane how many people comes away after playing who believes it's real. We need to be way more critical of those details as it gives a lot of people a really warped understanding of history. It's disgusting. Sure it might not feel important for the majority. But the amount of times I've seen people be so confidently incorrect over historic subjects just because they saw it in a game. I'm not just talking WW2 history here, I'm talking all of it.

Battlefield 1 is, in my opinion, one of the greatest FPS games ever made. BFV ended up being a good game, better than people give it credit for being. They abandoned it too soon though. Not including DDay or the eastern front is borderline criminal.

Anyone else remember the BF3 "Faultline" trailer coming out and being mind blown? Then (atleast on pc) it actually lived up to the hype

My late older brother introduced me to BF3 and ever since I've been LMG all the way. Suppressing fire!!!!

Battlefield 3 was truly in a class of its own when it released, and even years after. You couldn’t replicate the gameplay experience found in BF3. It had both fast and slow paced action in the same map, vehicle combat, environmental destruction, and some truly next gen graphics. While I was mainly a call of duty guy at the time, I could never get myself to play without my friends. BF3 could have me playing solo for hours. What a time we’ll never get back.

This is great analysis! I think chasing trends really ended it for battlefield. The year they actually beat CoD was when they did something no one expected and made a WW1 game...

BF1 started the fall of the franchise post launch with DLCS releasing so far apart and DICE starting to not listen to player feedback. Then 5 sealed its fate being the worst bf game and one of the worst fps ever created. 2042 was just as bad but I find it more enjoyable to play than 5 since the core of the game was there but sadly its lack of maps made me leave. Also bf3 had a terrible HZ rate of 15 which explained why you died behind covers more often than not. 4 helped fix it and refined 3's formula despite its rocky launch. 4 and 3 where the peak of the franchise and given the recent news about EA and Dice behinds the scenes, we'll never get another good bf game. The only thing I can truly be excited bf related is Warsaw Revamped, mods for BF4. Hopefully it comes in soon.

Slightly disagree with you a bit where you said that BF1 was the fall of the franchise. The in-between time for the DLCS was a good amount of time, especially since the new content didn't feel broken or rushed since they've had that time in between to work on it. The fall, in my opinion, was BF5. As for the feedback, people were asking for things that wouldn't make sense in a WW1 style game like customizations to weapons. Personally I liked the variant system but that's just me

@@DavidGonzalez_97 The DLCS had months in between and people were complaining it taking too long. We got our first dlcs in March of 2017 then the next one in September of 2017 then half of Tide in Dec 2017 with the other half at the end of Jan 2018. The last one came out rushed out the door with bugs and problems in Feb 2018. Compare that to bf4 and bf3's and it was clear it was not spaced out well at all. Most of the dlc maps were either fine or bad. They could have easily made attachments for weapons instead of this bloated variant system. Why are there multiple variants of a m1911 that offer no difference except one being silence? Bf1 isn't all bad with all its dlcs now here but again this showed bf fall clear to me and v only sealed the deal that battlefield one day is going to be put on hold like MOH was since 2042's response and post launch was bad not to mention there is no hype what so ever for the next game considering all this.

i defended BFV all the time and will do so right now: it had it problems yes, but the gameplay, gunplay, movement, destruction, sounds, graphics, class and squad mechanics, so many small details that makes this an excellent game! I still play this since 2018... And yes i want a modern BF with all these mechanics in the game!
