I’m hoping they’ll let you get the remaster without having to get that new ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ game. I hate the newer ones.

COD4 had some really good and intense maps.. if you’re able to buy the game on its own and also have totally dedicated servers much like BF I would seriously consider it.

Almost 47 and kicking ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ ( I think B) ).  
Indeed Nobel83-9, when it comes to tactics or being clever, they’re no match at all o:)

I am 41, and enjoy all types of games.

I think age does not affect player skills or tactics, I have seen young players who use smart tactics, and I have seen old players who have amazing skills and reflexes

The only thing that age affect is attitude (most of the time)  
Older players tend to be more cool headed and relaxed, and take a nice long view of the details, and play to have fun  
Younger players tend to be hot headed, easy to anger, wants things done quickly, and are very competitive (play to win)

Of course there are always those who act different from the norm, and that is fine

Doesn’t matter to me. If you’re enjoying the time you spend gaming then why stop?

Refreshing to see someone who isn’t a child online too.

I don’t want to take your words out of context and perhaps it’s not what you mean but I don’t understand this “Growing up” BS?  
Who set the standard of what a grown man does vs a Child, kid, teenager, young adult does?

I think the old school arcades back in the set this stereotype it is today. Just because you play video games doesn’t mean your not mature or lacking “Growing up”. I’m just curious to what the standard is you should be doing as a grown up? Because there isn’t one. Do what you want to do.

And further more you don’t have to bring up the stereotype upon yourself of what you should be saying. You “op” only brought it up because it’s been said to you before. The last person that said it to me I asked them "what is going on in your life that is so grown up that you are around me in the first place to tell me this. Guess what? Nothing. Nothing is going on so they just flap there mouth out of sheer boredom. How can they tell you this when they are in the same room you are in, in the same atmosphere you are in of people.. Think about it… yep… exactly.,..

anyone who tells you that your too old to be mesing around and having fun gaming probably hates their own life and wishes they just had a bit of time for fun.

always do what you enjoy as long as your not neglecting others through it.

we can all make time for a bit of fun for ourselves on the battlefield.

I am mid 30’s and I make sure that I have lots of personal time for gaming cause thats what I enjoy.
