> [@Noodlesocks](#): > > (Quote) > Only thing really wrong with Hardline was that it was a game no one was asking for. Was it really? It was much less vehicle focused than BF4, which considering at that point and still to this day like 1/3 of the servers only played infantry maps (which were horrible in BF4). It’s like the game everyone wanted to play inside BF4 by standing in hallway only maps. Maybe that’s why, the maps for said infantry gameplay were actually good. ---

> [@DingoKillr](#): > > Here how I see it. > BFV - better customization of character, weapons and vehicle.

Wish it had naval too. > BF3 - Gadgets far more useful and variety. > BFV - vehicles just far more to choice even if a bit to slow travelling, still handle terrian better. > BFV - hate to say it weapons even if balance is whacked and some need improvements. Different style and tactic can be used. > BFV - game play. BF3 ended for me with 2 basic play styles, charges and campers. > > Looks like I favour BFV. BF5 Assignment get 10 headshots with weapon whilst on objective in 1 life, that wasn’t fun for me. ☹ ---

BF5 is far more balanced in the vehicle department. And that says alot, because BF5 vehicle balance is a wreck. DICE never balanced BF3 vehicles, DICE just did not care. ---

BF3 overall. BFV has a lot of good points but BF3 is the overall better package. (I’m actually a little more partial to BF4 but that’s because I bought and played BF4 before buying BF3.) ---

I played BF3 daily and never uninstalled the game, BFV I uninstalled 5 months ago and I have no plans of playing anytime soon. ---

> [@bran1986](#): > > I played BF3 daily and never uninstalled the game, BFV I uninstalled 5 months ago and I have no plans of playing anytime soon. BF3 is normally the first title that I install when I reformat my PC and I never uninstall it so I get where you’re coming from. ---

I didn’t keep BF3 long on my XBOX1 when it became backward compatible from XBOX 360. Still people running around with M16’s. Felt like entire community used the most op weapons in the game. While the other 200+ weapons became forgotten. Seems like so many things got nerfed. . Peak BF3 was the early release. Heck probably beta. Since DICE barely fixed anything and made it worst after beta to full game release. Also long gaps for map packs for premium. Broken rental servers for the main admin. If you had tons of co-admins changing playlists while I was offline. . When I got back on, I couldn’t even see the playlist. Was so broken. They couldn’t even fix it. All EA help could do over the phone was give another server for free with same amount of time left while we still got to keep the broken one. So I let other admins that could see the menu on the broken server run those while I ran the new servers. . But still BF3 was so so. Bad Company 2 was way better. Also the Frostbite engine got worse after Bad Company 2. BF3 they couldn’t fix the crater glitch falling under the map. Dice just nerfed the destruction to fart stains. Also the start of suppression fire which bummed me out cause I loved using LMG’s. . Also they changed the medics classes for BF3 from Bad Company 2. If anyone really loved BF3 it most likely was lazy tankers and fly boys farming kills a mile away not playing the objectives. ---

Yeah because the faction balance that is just broken on it’s face is better than good players dunking you. BF3 had a good vehicle gameplay. BF4 was where it all started to be about locking on. ---

> [@Imadis64](#): > > (Quote) > Should at least give it a few games with the new re-worked TTK with 6.2 I did and outside of semi autos, the current ttk is pretty much the same as 5.2.2. Dice traded high accuracy and low damage for high recoil and mediocre damage, outcome is still the same.
