recently tried it as f2p
brief review: turns out its only 3 gamemodes not full game. the game modes are basically lame mission competition, and pubg clone 4 and 2 man squad. really upsetting as a guy who came from battlefield 1 to vietnam, 2, 3 etc.
cant believe the graphics have stagnated so much, bf3 looks nearly as good-from 15 years ago!!! looks like theyre using a gfx engine from 2008 (frostbite). more corporate rebadged garbage. shameful.
ill still buy at $30 just for some old school battlefield vehicle/infantry mixed mmo combat i crave. planetside 2 was good for that b4 it died recently.
Yeah the graphics are good, but not a major leap forward all these years later. Yes the detail in rocks and ground textures and mountains looks great, but a bunch of stuff just seems like stiff cardboard. Like trees and leaves or other stuff is like immovable paper concrete LOL.
BF1 was a big visual update, and BF6 barely much batter, but overall BF4 to BF6 isn't a huge leap forward, just a bit better and more detail. But the world itself still feels stiff or not real if that makes sense. Feels like big props on a movie set or something, bunch of fake stuff, that looks cool from far away but up close it's just stuck there or something.
Man I wish there was some true competition from another developer to make a rival series of realistic but still fun action type military shooter, with loads of drivable vehicles and huge outdoor maps with 128 players. Kind of surprised someone else hasn't made this type of Battlefield game. And no the Star Wars Battlefront games don't count, those suck worse than Battlefield.
