Another funny Thing is that the beloved BF4 is a way more Casual Shooter then BF1.

Infrared Sights, Lock On Launcher, Auto Spotting Tool, Auto motar where you can camp in the corner, selfhealing vehicles and so on.

Most people forgot that when they speak Bad about BF1.

BF1 really pushed this new direction for BF games into boring Conquest rounds with ring around the rosie gameplay. It started this new class of annoying animations. IT had its own share of poor visuals only mitigated somewhat by 3d spotting. It had Premium but first set of maps came 5 months after launch. DLC went super infantry centric. The maps all shrunk and we didn’t get any big vehicle maps. It started allowing players to pick what vehicle they wanted to use on a map which resulted in a lot of selfish play and less teamplay. also led to dumb gameplay where oh you got a bomber, I’ll get an attack plane. Oh you got an attack plane, i’ll get a fighter. Oh you got this fighter, I will get the dogfighter.

It started breaking things with patches as much as fixing them. so many patches broke features and then let them stay broke for a month or two until they could fix them again.

IT did the whole ttk 2.0 1 year into the game’s lifespan which only put another 3 feet of dirt over the game. And resulted in lots of prone lasers from across the map.

BF1 also had its share of laser distance weapons. The OHK sniper crap. The insta-heal medics from 100m. And then post-patch the laser prone lmgs.

It also gave started the Assault is both AT and the CQC class. Never quite sure why they went that direction except anyone that played the game before knows those 2 roles turn games in BF. YOu need players to weed out enemies in flag zones and you need to keep armor down. All this talk about teamplay but this combines 2 most important/most needed roles into one in BF.

BF1 also did the fog thing to level 11. You could play a day and play 100% fogged maps. It happened.

All I’ve seen from the community recently is hate on BFV (often with people looking back at BF1 through rose tinted glasses).

People can hate BF1 as much they want but it is the most successful BF to date - and that’s a fact. Like it or not - it’s all subjective. I don’t like this Apex Legends, but it doesn’t change the fact that this game is a huge success.

In terms of sales BF1 on BFV and that’s a fact. I don’t like many things in BF1 (stupid bombers and Mortar Trucks in Operations, Sweet Spot, Hipfire insane accuracy, no weapon sway, unlimited sprinting and etc.), but this game was finished, polished and had a solid design. BFV is trying to be everything and fails or just generic in most of the aspects.

TTK2.0 killed a huge portion of fun in this game, having made half of weapons obsolete. Then they buffed SMG08, Bombers and Mortar Trucks. From that moment Operations have become a

Cool story. Keep them coming. I like fairy tales. One day I’ve managed to kill 40 people with syringe 🙂
