Besides DICE's incompetency and tone deafness, I would also add their arrogance. Ever since BF5, they fought against their community

They absolutely are arrogant. It's probably why 2042 doesnt get the changes it needs because the devs are too stubborn and arrogant to accept player feedback.

[@SOLOcan]

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.

This is due to a mentality shift in the industry. Its no longer seen as profitable to maintain experienced employees long term. Employees are hired mostly on a temporary bases for a single project. As a result, they are working with essentially no experience with a given franchise/project/team. The reason execs are doing this is because new hires are cheaper than senior employees. And they've realized people will buy games regardless of their quality so they don't need to care about that.

In my opinion, BF4 was my favourite. I have so many fond memories of jet ramming, C4 buggy, C4 jumps, and trolling with friends. I also think it’s a hot take to say it has my favourite maps in the series. Despite some being not as remarkable, I think they all did their job at being unique and featuring a different play style. Zavod was the small map, Dawnbreaker was the linear map, Operation Locker was the infantry map, Golmud was the vehicle map, Parcel Storm was the island hopping and water map, Rouge Transmission was the “big” map, the dam map had an interesting layout, and Shanghai (and Dawnbreaker) were the city maps with Hainan being the mix of all map. That’s why BF4 will always remain my favourite shooter in history.

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

Big maps were the only good part about the game, you actually need to use transport vehicles like in the classic BF games.

[@Nitroh-]

@@Red_Lion2000 of course using transport vehicles should be encouraged, but where 2042 went wrong was doubling the size of the maps to accommodate 128 players, so the distance between spots was bigger resulting in too much open space, hence why they had to spend an entire year reworking all the maps. Maps like Hourglass, Renewal and DIscarded were atrocious on Conquest, even riding around in vehicles felt slow. At least maps like Golmud on BF4 and Galicia on BF1, riding in transport vehicles you could at least still find an enemy or 2 going from flag to flag, pre map updates on 2042 it was crickets half the time, it's still now not what it could be. DICE should have made all the maps 64p size and treat 128 as a chaotic mode like Cod used to do with ground war back in the day. making the maps 128p standard was one of the biggest mistakes DICE did which caused 80% of 2042s issues. There's a reason why most of the playerbase hate the maps, just poorly designed.
