Battlefield 1942 came out 17 years ago, and BF 2 came out 14 years ago, so if you played these games with any regularity back in the day, you’re probably in your mid 30s by now. Heck, if you played BF1942 as 30-something, you’re approaching 50!

Thanks for the info, but I don’t have a pc anymore. This may persuade me to get a pc

I may not be as fast as these young gunslingers, but thinking around corners is just as relevant in BF, and it seems the younger crowd are more straight in to win (which, if I still had those reflexes might be my choice as well).

I’m 40 and playing decent…haven’t noticed a drop off. I think older players who are good players may lose a gun fight here and there to the younger crew but overall have a much better sense of strategy and long term objective thinking gained from years of playing BF games.
