People who have been with the series since the beginning(like me) realize BF3 is a real BF game.
BC2 was totally consolized, dumbed down and not nearly as good as the main BF series to me.
Just something Ive noticed.
"Real BF game" is such an arbitrary and elitist thing to say. what qualities make a game a "real" BF game or a "fake" BF game? You might say prone, jets, and high player count make it a
real BF game but those things arent necessarily good additions. BC2 was fine without these and many of the other things that the traditional battlefield games had
Just because BC2 is more different from BF2 than BF3 is doesnt make it any less good of a battlefield game. You could even argue that BF3 is the game thats been dumbed down with the faster ttk's, addition of so many lock-on weapons, and faster pace.
Yes Im an elitist.
Bad Company 2 was watered down in just about every way.....you obviously never played 1942, or BF2.
Sigh......
I'm gonna add to this instead making a new post.
Again I liked BC2 alot, it was a fun game. But these are the things changed from the previous and current BF games.
- Higher TTk
- Jets removed
- Smaller maps
- Focused on Rush, not CQ
- Smaller teams and player numbers
- Prone removed
- Less vehicles
- Console priority
These are all differences from the previous games in the series. To the credit of the BC series, we got the Frostbite engine though, which is awesome.
To me this made a huge difference in over all feel and scope of the game. And MOST people who played the older games tend to agree.
