Does Battlefield 4 Hold Up?

I played Battlefield 4 recently to see how it's holding up and was surprised by a lot of things

Battlefield 4 is the one my crew and I come back to time and time again even after all these years. Playing the newer titles just make us want to go back and play more BF4. As long as servers are up we will be there.

What makes BF4 so good?

Server browser, class system, weapon variety, weapon/attachment progression, vehicle progression, medal progression, player movement/camera/weapon animations fluidity, overall map balance, overall solider/vehicle balance, ticket system, graphics, destruction.

I think what i like most about BF4 ist the community-added option to choose the next map via chat

Really love the feeling when getting lots of points/kills at the same time. The text rolls in so sweet and fluid.

I always thought the lighting was just a classic part of bf4's identity, like yeah it can be tough to see sometimes but it's just another factor to consider in combat. Same goes for everything else actually too, except for the squad up difficulties ofcourse. Maybe the bugginess is just part of the nostalgia for me 🤷‍♂

The 2042 beta was my first Battlefield experience. After the beta was over I picked up a battlefield game bundle on sale and ground out the previous titles till 2042 was released. I actually put more time into BF4 now than 2042, in part because I want to become better at shooters and BF4 has a much higher skill ceiling and is generally more challenging and rewarding than 2042. And I and V for that matter. Also there's much less overall chaos over the course of a round in BF4. It's easier to know where to spawn, which objectives to push, how to get where you want to go, what direction to flank from, etc.

It's still arguably the best modern FPS out there. Dice should just remaster it at this point. EA could do a BF3/4 remaster and it would sell.

Idk why people are scared to call it the best bf game to date..

[diabolicaldoodle]

I’ve had some of the best memories in gaming and have made some amazing mates over the years some of which I still play with on BF4 every Friday night.
Absolutely love this game.

This game introduced me to Battlefield, lvlcap, Matimi0, Jack and X. The pure amount of fun and adrelinlne this game can give you. Battlefeels is a meme but this game really had it. It rewarded smart and good player while also keeping those with a lower skill ceiling competitive in matches. It was pure fun and the last great battlefield game. Since this title it seems Dice and EA are trying their best to surpass it. So far they have failed.

FLIR being able to see targets through smoke was only a thing briefly like seven years ago. DICE LA experimented with it but later removed it in a subsequent patch. If anyone is wondering it hasn't been in the game for years, unlike what Levelcap seems to think here.

I've recently bought this game a second time to experience it again now with 120fps instead of the 40-50 i remember from back then. It's INSANE how good the core gameplay feels. In fact it feels like the FPS I've been looking for since a few years now. The guns feel amazing, movement feels just right but most importantly the gameplay "flow" so to say works so well. It's really balanced even tho there are flaws within the balancing. You get annihilated by a dude with his scout helicopter? Well throw in the AA mine and Stinger to annoy the hell out of him so your team can advance. You don't like getting dominated by a MBT? Well get a few teammates to shoot at it with laws and it will be overwhelmed in a few seconds. It just feels right like no other shooter did after it. Doesn't matter if it's BF5, Insurgency, Squad, WW3 or the newer cods. This game just from the core gameplay loop alone is worth your time way more than stuff like 2042 could ever be.

Playing the new battlefield games just makes me appreciate BF4 that much more. The new games just make BF4 better it’s the only battlefield game I never get sick of. BF4 is KING!!!

[Jack_Heslin]

7:37 Untrue, the last big update nerfed IRNV/FLIR to not see through smokes. The points about vehicles feeling OP are weird. An INFANTRY Fighting Vehicles and MBTs should feel powerful, and engineers should be useful as an anti vehicle role, compared to the newer titles where everyone can take on a tank or heli. Battlefield 4 has a really good Rock-Paper-Scissors system.

[bigkoat]

I couldn't imagine how these older BF games would be doing if it had something similar to Halo's forge mode. It'd be crazy

[petep]

I played BF3 a year after release, BF4 out of the gate, BF1 for a month, BF5 for a few months, didn’t touch 2042. Since I started playing BF 4, i never stopped

[DocBrewskie]

I wanted BF2042 to be BF4 wt updated graphics, the movement of BF5 & atmosphere of BF1. No battle passes and cheesy operators to sell skins.

[Josh-dnyo]

I still play this with my 3 friends every other night and it’s a great community on hardcore servers

[julianviefers]

I still think it's best battlefield in the series despite its flaws.
The weapon variety, assignment/progression, weapon customization, maps it all adds up to a well rounded bf compared to everything that came after

[Derekorbe]

Battlelog was such an amazing system that we need back
