50 and building/gaming for 18. It’s more of a advantage, then disadvantage.

Nope, I’ll be 39 in September. Still playin. No such thing as too old. Still jump in the mosh pit, too. Although reflexes degrade over time, I’m pretty bad at BF4, & I expect to be bad at BF1 as well.  
Hell, it took me over 600 hours to hit lvl 121, probably wont hit 140 by October 18th.

I read somewhere the average age of gamers these days is 38. Im 40 and have had my fair share of atari back in the day, even pong…haha. However all you should check out the fastest shooter in real life “jerry mizulek”. Youtube him…he is one old dude you dont want to mess with. It will help you realize age doesnt mean much.

You’re not too old my friend. People say the same about me when it comes to games or other things like cartoons and animation.

I’ve gotten older but I see no point of limiting myself due to age, have a good day.

But no matter score or achievements I just have to online bf gm. I still ask people what guns to use because I am a terrible shooter; although some look at my rank and every blue moon someone asks me for advice. I switch classes and guns for fun. Not serious enough to compete , just love to play ! love it so much gt xx Algiers xx xbox 1

well ill tell you this. no one can really tell you what gun is best. they are all good it just depends on your play style. if your a long range player maybe consider weapons below 700 rpm if your a medium range player use a weapon with a rof of 700 to 800 and if you are a cqb player consider going with anything above 800. (NOTE: there are exceptions to the rof rule i go by like the scar h or the bull dog which have higher damage models putting them up into the medium range category rather then the long range) i perfer to stay with in 700 to 800 category as that is the most versatile you can really get with weaponry. but remember that no gun is really the best it just depends on you. and what you think.

I don’t know about that. I watch a girl hit 100 yards with slugs and it was kind of depressing, haha.

For PC gaming, your machine and your internet connection count far more than reflexes and age. Knowledge of the maps is a factor too, of course.

Enjoy what you enjoy and don’t be afraid to let your presence, regardless your age, be known. Truth be known, I’m sure there are a lot of “experienced” people playing. lol

Wow I wish I’ll have your attitude when I’m 64. Kudos to you sir.

Love this thread…so glad to see that I’m not the only old timer (53). I started on The Russian Campaign in 1976, then moved onto the proto-BF game, Squad Leader, in '77. The cardboard games were good but the thrill of these on-line Battlefield games is great! I’m pretty crappy, slowed reflexes and diminished eyesight, but I still get in the top 5 every once in a while. Yeah I get killed frequently but having fun! (I just really need to find a group or clan or whatever you call it so someone can explain why I keep missing so many shots! 🙂 )

No limit so long as you’re not spending your entire day on the game.
