Yeah, I feel ya man. The horrible weapons imbalance, constant one side faceraping goatscrew of a server balance system, broken level rewards and broken items have made me decide that deleting BFV is the best option. It freed up wasted space on my HD anyway. I just wish I could get a refund on my DL. At least I didnt waste any money on stupid microtransactions. lol ---

How is the current playerbase of BF4 on PS4? I am currently re-downloading the game from the library in order to get my cravings for RUSH satisfied… Anyone knows if there are any active servers atm? If not rush I´ll take the 24/7 Locker 400% ticket count… ---

Just bought BF 1 cheap. Reviews were better than BF 5. Going to give it a try. ---

First, I don’t think BFV is a bad as many say. I find servers by ping and game plays fine. Funny how BF1 is now gold standard to many. I enjoyed it, but I adjust to the game style. BF1 was hated at beginning, no one wanted WW1. Add the camping artillery trucks, spamming gas nades, elites, behemoths (why does bad team get all theses chances), Why are the horses stronger than a tank . I could go on and on, but complaints were widespread. The one thing I do think about BF1 is, it had more BF moments. Especially, wtf moments where all hell breaks loose. Players battling and things blowing up all around you, whether it was behemoths (which I enjoyed) getting destroyed or whatever. BFV doesn’t have enough of those big moments. ---

Guess what I am trying to say is, there is more chaos in BF1, so, even with its faults (and there are many) , it adds another level that is not in BFV. ---

But… must also admit had a few rage-moments but it seems like that is just a part of the Battlefeel-experience… ---

Haha like being involved in a hard fight and having a burning airship fall on you! I love BF1 for that kind of spectacle. Horses really are op these days with auto heal on the fly and endless grenades. I love it! Not sure how they would be stronger than a tank? One direct hit with a tank cannon will take them out. ---

Yeah I left BF ages ago, downloaded today to try and play and first game is on shizerstorm. Now I’ve always hated that hill humping tank ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ show of a map anyways but my god. I am now leaving BF again it’s the same horrible boring game it has been since launch ---

By the way, team. balancing in BF1 no better than BFV. Just played game, Argonne Forest, 10 players well over 100 on one team, other team had 2. I know, not always indicator of good players, but in this case they steamrolled. Add the team jumping and forced team switching and it was, still is, a mess. ---

Another by the way. Next game, FAO Fortress, our team 29 players, 17 sniping. Quick guess on outcome, maybe the quickest loss I ever played on any BF. Sometimes the good old days aren’t all that perfect. ---

Balance is terrible in both games. But ar least you can still switch teams in BF1. I like having the option. ---

I agree with op, many times I get killed while being behind direct cover, also battlefield doesn’t really care about their community, you can see just by the way their only responses on this forum are to close threads and give warnings. Assignments are horrible, how are you meant to headshot 5 ppl in one life over 50 metres with assault rifles or lmgs, ridiculous and insanely hard. No wonder you’re community is pissed off with you guys. ---

The worst things of BFV, bad servers, abusive and easily headshots (Worse than Battlefield Hardline, 0 skill needed), broken netcode, WW2 immersion = 0+0. ---

@LeeSummit09 If BF 1 is chaos with explosions and gas everywhere, I think it’s my cup of tea. Ever since the Killzone 2 server was shut down, I’ve been trying to find an FPS with some kind of soul close to KZ 2. I thought it would be BF 5. But I don’t like the pace of BF 5 and there’s too much wasted space. BF 1 is World War I, and I agree no one is fond of that time period. But it’s not really the time period that matters, but the things that make a game fun. For example, I like Star Wars BF 2015 more than SW BF II because you could customize your solider and choose any weapon you wanted. You could also purchase contracts for new weapons and abilities similar to BF 1. SW BF to streamlined the classes. Weapons and abilities were limited to classes and heroes dominated the game. ---

I also liked the nitty gritty and darker theme of Killzone 2 which seems to be there in BF 1. BF V is too vibrant. Some noob dev at EA didn’t realize people enjoyed that and decided to change something again.
