Why was Battlefield 4 SO Great?

Battlefield 4 is still my favourite FPS in 2022. I wish 2042 was just a continuation of this game. Such a lost gem.

This channel is all about snipers, sniping and FPS shooters! I mainly do Battlefield 2042 Sniping but I also play Call of Duty, Battlefront and I love Battle Royale. I often play solos, duos and squads on my livestream. I have 1000 hours experience in every Battlefield and I hope to play more FPS games in 2021. I hope you enjoy my 2042 sniper gameplay as much as I do making it.

The amount of content this game had by the end of its life cycle was insane.

We all hoped that BF2042 was going to be a 'reboot' of BF4. If DICE had followed the recipe from BF4 and made the game look a little nicer, BF2042 would have been amazing. Hope you're resting up well man!

I remember trying to get the DICE white thermal camo and having a hard time. Then i join this server and it has this one dude doing the easter egg, it was a long one, with the hidden buttons across Dragon Valley. He had nearly done it all when i came in and started chatting about it, and when i mentioned i was having trouble he promptly said “I got you, you can have this one”… That was quite special to me.
I’ve played all the battlefields, imho we have the best community, and it’s powered by people like that dude. And people like you Stod!
Cheers!

I find it hilarious that they could have hit a fucking home run doing the least amount of work. We wanted new maps and guns and vehicles added to BF4. That was literally it. Instead they spent who knows how much developing a pile of shit that has terrible player count and hurt the franchise's image. That's an expensive way to go backwards.

You should do more of these types of videos, ones that aren’t scripted but just you speaking your mind it’s great content

[Tomographic]

You should do more commentary videos like this. Good vibes 👍

BF4 release was terrible, but they brought it back into possibly the best shooter in the past 10 years with tons of content to keep the gameplay from getting stale. Truly a masterpiece and still playing to this day. To add more even all the gameodes they added, i know most died out a couple of months after dlc but you could still find a few servers running them, good old gunmaster, carrier assult i believe it was called squad deathmatch what i really enjoyed.

I think BF3 might be the best of them all, if you add BF4's suppression system. Because that was the only thing holding BF3 back. And even then, it was one of the most popular BF's out there.

I just can't get over the fact how good the maps in BF3 were. I don't think there was one bad map. All the DLC maps were really good as well. I'm not much of a vehicle guy, so I didn't play Armored Kill that much. But when I wanted a change of pace for the vehicle gameplay, those maps were amazing as well.

And don't get me started on the close quarters DLC. Might be one of the best. Aftermath a close second.

BF4 is still a go to for me and my friends. It’s fun, has a great sandbox, and by now the hardware requirements are relatively low so it runs like a dream on even our budget systems. A true masterpiece.

this video took me back man. I miss those times too. That feeling of loading up the bf4 beta when it first came out, I don't think I'll ever forget that moment. Even the DLCs of this game got me so mad hyped.

[talkntribe]

I agree with you Stodeh. I just actually restarted playing bf4 on pc yesterday. It was fun and I really enjoyed it. I was playing bf2042 and doing the weekly missions. I had to ask why grind for a skin. Why can't we get guns in return. Wish they would listen to their fans when developing games. Remaster 4, give us cross platinum to play with our console friends. Hope you are okay buddy.

You know . That chill camaraderie is what has drawn me to Hell Let Loose so much. Even when I first started playing I asked questions and I’d say 90% of the time much higher levels were supportive and patient. Now that I’m that higher level I do the same thing. Toxic communities will always be present but the true heads know the reals one from the not ones. Great video!

[janoycresva]

What do you mean was ??
it still IS !!!
Add Sweetfx/crank the graphics to max and it still looks stunning

And the amount of content is INSANE

[imBadMove]

Doing this style of video with the lads all having a conversation together would make a great vid. Keep up this kind of content!

[olatron]

You didn’t mention some of the amazing Easter eggs this game had like the phantom bow challenge. And some cool features like being able to have a full screen minimap on your second screen. You could even play as commander on the shitter using a tablet! Truly an amazing game, probably my favourite of all time.

Personally, i feel this is the greatest and most perfect FPS game ever made.

[nsns]

Man do I miss those ps4 lan parties grinding locker. Also when the game releases it felt so refreshing and creative. The crazy kills, the parachute rpg's taking down apaches, actually being able to C4 tanks properly. Good days

[daydos_soundscapes]

Battlefield 4 is my favorite FPS of all time too. I think a lot of people felt that way. A lot of the friends I made still have battlefield videos as their showcase video on Xbox all these years later

[jameshenry]

Absolutely love this more ad lib style of video btw. Don't get me wrong, your well scripted, thought out aproach videos are absolutely mega and what I subscribed for. But there's defintely room for this vibe that feels more like an extension of the streams

[simongarcia]

Bf4 is still my favorite multi-player game, everything just feels as good as it can and while the campaign wasn't anything to rave about it was still a decent place to get a feel for the games mechanics.
