Okay I'm seeing tons of comments from people about Battle Bit, but is there something good like it that features more realistic graphics? No disrespect to that game but the Roblox style instantly kills it for me.

Battlefield 1 is solid and still has decent NA community servers. Semi modern, but not much of a cash grab with good stories and a fun multiplayer experience. Especially the naval battles (imo!)

I'll give it a shot. I admittedly have never played a single BF game since BF Vietnam, lol, and I somehow own on PC like 7 BF games including BF1. So I'm going to take your advice and give it a shot!

I have 1942, Vietnam, 2, 3, 4, 1, and 5 (I Believe that's release order), is BF1 a better choice than 5 to try out?

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

I mean, I'm biased, but I refunded BFV and put well over 500 hours into BF1, haha. It feels better than V imo.

Will probably get down voted to heck, but Battle Field 2042 goes on sale pretty regularly and is a good bit of fun since they fixed a lot of the issues from it's atrocious launch.

I've had it on my wishlist, but I hesitate to buy anything from BF or CoD only for it to be replaced a year later and no one to play with. I mean, CSGo/CS2 has been going strong for years and in that time there have been like a dozen of each of the other franchises released.

It's kind of crazy how it's really just CoD, Halo, and battlefield after all these years. There's some more mil-sim type shooters out there that are great, insurgency, hell let loose, squad, for example. It doesn't seem like there's much out there though in terms of the less serious team death match shooters. The only other one I can think of is maybe titan fall.
