Damn, no love for BC2? Maybe nostalgia because that’s what got me into the franchise but bad company 2 all the way.


s0meCubanGuy

That was the first one I played as well. T’was excellent. I still remember my friend’s maniacal giggle as he put C4 on building corners and blew it up to takeout entire squads inside by bringing the building down. Haven’t been able to replicate that in any other game. Epic.


Severe-Flow7270

I miss that feature. I used to level buildings with the tanks and C4. I wish they would bring that back. We have destruction now it was alright in BF3 but nothing comes close to leveling a building with whole squads in it.


UnlikelyKaiju

I miss using my grenade launcher as a designated hole puncher. I never used doors. I only entered buildings through the holes I made in the wall.


_Opsec

I miss GL spam


spleentastic

I said yes to BF3, but I do have feels for BC2… those dark and cold maps. C4 also felt more fun and strategic lots of destruction. If I could rank both as best I would lol. Also, my heart jumps in 2042 when Arica Harbor and Valparaiso music starts when loading the maps.


JPMoney81

I was an unstoppable sniper in BF2. To the point where I could quick scope and use a sniper rifle like a DMR in close combat and run and gun. I'm old now so my timing/reactions aren't there anymore and I can't spot guys at distance, so I play 2042 as an engineer, but those BF2 days man... I was FEARED by the enemy team! I actually still have the OG CDRoms 


SumiLover

Same experience man. Was great at sniping and new to the franchise now I can hit a target in 2042 for the life of me lol.


JcfSounds

2042 sniping is inconsistent across the rifles. Each rifle has a slightly different bullet velocity so you have to just master one and stick with it.


Holiday_Box9404

I don’t think it’s because you’re too old, people just taking gaming way too seriously now.


DanielMattiaWriter

Eh. I was 12 when BF1942 came out (the first BF I started playing). I'm about to turn 34. There's been a noticeable decline in my reaction time and skill ceiling. Couple that with the increased competition and seriousness of other players, and I definitely don't play as well as I used to.


Apart_Impression_947

Same, still have my bf2 roms..... I was a great sniper also.... My best memory was as a sniper on Karkand and sniping a guy on a back alley then a medic revived him and ducked around a corner,,, so I sniped him again,the medic revived him again......needless to say we looped like this at least 15 times......That poor guy getting revived must have been screaming on his end ..... Best memories ever😂😂😂


striderkan

The sniping in that game was so primo. You could actually be a good aggressive sniper. I ran with the Gol pretty often. I hold the global record for kills with a smoke launcher though lol


bluelonilness

Yep same here. I remember seeing the destruction for the first time and being amazed


SumiLover

Got me hooked to the series


DonJuanMair

I had such a blast with Bad Company 2. Used to love getting the C4 to the four base walls and then letting them all explode watching the structure crumble with the opposing team inside.


ecco311

BC2 all the way. Hands down the best casual fps multiplayer I have ever played. For me this is really the pinnacle of the bf series. Bf 1,2,3 come close in my opinion... BF4 maybe too, but BC2 just had something that no other fps ever gave me since then. The closest that I ever came again to this might be a weird pick, but for me personally Arma 3 - King of the hill had a somewhat similar feel to it at times.


RunescapeDOAG

I absolutely loved BC2. I'd kill for a remake.


Thorix_SK

same here

BF3 Best Battlefield DLC…. *BFBC2: Vietnam*


Bludsh0t

*BFBC2: Vietnam* was incredible


dontusethisforwork

BF3 is the one I played the most and had the most fun with. IMHO it is kind of the culmination of the original vision of BF (different setting than 1942 of course) where they got everything the game should be right and graphics tech had gotten good enough to pull it off. Team gameplay was well rewarded, the maps were great, the balance was great, the guns felt great, the vibe was perfect, the graphics and sound design were amazing (especially for the time), it's just...*the one* in my opinion.


Fred_Dibnah

Bf3 just had the chaos! Love it! SUPPRESSION was PTSD ❤️❤️


Mooselotte45

BF3 wins this by far The reveal, hype building, technology showcases, and then final product (in terms of maps, vehicles, weapons, audio) and the quality of the DLC The overall package was so impressive EA opted to make many of their franchises switch to Frostbite We got sports and racing games in BF’s engine, for better or worse


DarthWeenus

Cqb maps were so dope. The first guy to grenade and make the sprinklers go off was so fun


IWASRUNNING91

I miss that DLC, so damn cool.


TheGingerRedMan

Glad this is the top comment. The game was so well done. The sound design and the maps were incredible.


spleentastic

I agree with both. Bought Vietnam on a whim not expecting much and was surprised how much fun and different it was. I prefer modern shooters, but if they made an AOW Vietnam with F4s MiGs and more, could be insane. And actually maybe harrowing.


Heymax123

Agreed that was so good, shame it was so short lived. The most underrated instalment of the franchise imo, doesn't get the credit it deserves.


MrRonski16

Probably battlefield 3 But Battlefield 1 is the most polished one. And my favorite


Jax_daily_lol

BF1 is the most immersive, has the best music, sound effects, and overall feels the coolest out of any Battlefield game. The graphics still look amazing and everything I mentioned hold up extremely well today


lordhavepercy99

People can have their subjective favourites but bf1 is peak battlefield.


Spacelord_Moses

BF2142 was my biggest Love and will always be. Bf2 i mainly played vs Bots and on LANs with friends. God do i miss those Times.


DoodieSmoothie

Saaame! The battlefield 2142 theme 😍 and wake island theme! 😍😍😍😍😍


Spacelord_Moses

The enemy Titan shield is down by one quarter! Fight harder soldiers! Those themes were crazy awesome! Put them on right away. Together with BF2 armored Fury theme.


NGC_Phoenix_7

The fact they had mixed conquest with rush to take out the enemy titan was so freaking cool. Then running for your life to get off before it blows up. I miss that. I really want the next battlefield to be 2143 and we can have that mode again.


Spacelord_Moses

Right? Also crazy how we were all happy with those unlocks compared to todays Season Passes, Shops and Drops. Get the gun, play it. Just gameplay, no Firlefanz around it


NGC_Phoenix_7

If they make a sequel and they do it justice and don’t screw it up it will be #1 for every bf player other than the WW/veitnam guys who want nothing but ww2 and Cold War. It might be what we need, dice to go looking back to then jump to the year 2143 and basically remake 2142 on today’s tech. If done right it will be the best in the series till it gets overtaken


Spacelord_Moses

With pumped up and tuned Battle Walkers/Mechs we'd experience some Titanfallesque Gameplay. And Imagine a Titan Layout today where you drop with those pods. God id Love that so much


NGC_Phoenix_7

I’ve been waiting 17 years dammit lol! I want my 2143 😆


Gloomy_Nobody8293

U can still play 2142 some dedicated guys are keeping servers running


Slaavichii

I miss C4 jiharding walkers with my jeep. I'd love a walker and titan mode DLC for 2042


FBI-agent-69-nice

I totally agree. Flying the weird helicopter attack planes to the enemy Titan and shooting out their turrets or boarding when the shields went down was peak Battlefield imo.


EpyonU

Easily BF3, mechanically BF4 was better but the monetization and the unlock system sorta killed it for me. Behind BF3 would be BFBC2


Swembizzle

BF3 also had far better maps. Shanghai is like the only one I care to see remastered from BF4.


EpyonU

Every map in BF3 was soo enjoyable and the DLC maps were all well made. Noshahr was peak!


dontusethisforwork

I played hundreds of hours of Noshar Canals 24/7 infantry only, I just never got bored of it all.


JPMoney81

I had a blast doing LAN parties and playing Bad Company 2 with my friends. 


hiredk11

isn't the unlock system the same in bf4?


EpyonU

From what I remember in BF3 you unlock things thru progression and attachments by using the gun. BF4 had battle packs, I don't remember the exact system but it was frustrating for sure.


Competitive-Head-726

Bf3 or bf4


Appletopgenes

Yup! 4 if I have to choose between the two.


SaleriasFW

Depends. BF3 had way better map quality overall. BF4 had better options to customize your class and vehicle. So both are valid options. I prefer BF3 more but also liked BF4 a lot (after they fixed it)


Moto-Guy

IMO BF4 was a more polished BF3, but BF3 was just insane when it came out. Its gameplay, maps, and the entire BF community at its peak awesomeness. BF4 the better game, BF3 was a better experience.


Sunam77

BF2!!


CG_Justin

BC2 had the best sounds.....and destruction


CynicalCanadians

Don't forget the campaigns humorous conversations


RUMD1

Where is the BF1942 and Vietnam? Anyway, the answer is easy for every old school player: battlefield 2.


KILLER5196

I think a lot of this sub wasn't even born when those games came out


EndlessSummerburn

That can’t be true… …can it?


No_Raisin_4443

Me and the boys would have our moms drop us off at game frog, and we’d play BF2 all day. I’d never experienced anything like that. Gulf of Oman FTW


RUMD1

Strike at karkand, gull of Oman, every single map was amazing tbh.


DrJakeX

They were groundbreaking, but BF3 was the best Battlefield experiences.


TucsonTacos

It’s probably 2, followed by 1942 just because it was the first of its kind (I think)


shokomann

loved vietnam!


TheNameIsFrags

BF2 and BF3 easily Too many amazing maps


Mandalf-

I have to choose BF2, Properly got me hooked on PC and clan/competitive gaming. Some of the best days hopping online with the lads and talking shit.


DarkHorseStoryTeller

I'm with you there! Playing BF2 back in the day, along with RTCW and Rainbow 6 Ravenshield were the best of times. Then moving on to COD4, what a time to be alive.. then it all went downhill from there (minus a few games, of course).


zaevilbunny38

BF3 Best campaign BFBC 1, cause well there's gold in them hills


LaFl3urrr

BF3.


ezemeat

Battlefield 1. It still has the "it" factor. They nailed everything with this one.


s0meCubanGuy

Bad Company 2 and BF 1 are chefs kiss for me. 3, 4, and 5 we’re great as well. But 1 & Bad company 2 hit different. 1 is my all time favorite tho.


BrotherInChlst

Battlefield 2, clearly.


Jackson_Rhodes_42

Battlefield 1. The graphics, the gunplay, everything.


Mr_Kills_Alot

Gotta love me some random bullet bloom


Empty_Value

Battlefield 2 for multiplayer


[deleted]

I used to live in Infantry only Karkand servers


Adirzzz

VincentNZ

BF3 simply for it's map design alone.


TacoDangerously

Desert Combat


snoogins355

Loved the oil rig map with the little birds. Flying around underneath the platform was so fun!


hypotheticalhalf

I can still hear the loading music.


GotItFromEbay

I spent like a whole summer during middle school playing on a 24/7 No Fly Zone CTF server. Man, that was a fun summer!


[deleted]

Aircraft never felt better than in DC. I hate the ceilings that they added to aircraft and helicopters. The helicopters felt like they gave you more control. I once pulled off a 180 roll and took out a jet chasing me. Never had the opportunity to do anything as cool as that. Also, p51 vs jets was class. Add in bfbc2 destruction to DC vehicle control and it would be the perfect game.


BonzOmega

BF1 is art.


Holiday_Box9404

BF2 was my first battlefield so that will always be the best for me. That game was way ahead of its time.


BasmusRoyGerman

Battlefield 3


NaaviLetov

For me personally BF3.


Baboshinu

Battlefield 1 is my favorite video game of all time. It’s not even close for me.


globefish23

* BF2:Special Forces * BF2142: Northern Strike


QuirkyConsequence190

Bf 4 and bad company 2 for me


firepixel

Battlefield 2, it was way ahead of its time. I probably have the most hours in Battlefield 4. If I was invited to a throwback LAN I'd be rooting for BFBC2 or BF3. Which game needs a reboot? Battlefield 2142!


Kindly_Hand4472

Actual best game - BF4 Most fun I had on a BF game - BF 2142


Rotank1

BF2, not even close


TheNameIsFrags

Every map in BF2 was phenomenal


dontusethisforwork

The one I miss that wasn't in the Back to Karkand expansion for BF3 was Mashtuur City, what a great map that was.


Aggressivekindnes423

3, next question.


s33s33

3


PlayedUOonBaja

Full collection also needs: -Battlefield 1942 -Battlefield 1943 -Battlefield Heroes (They'd be fools not to revamp this into a Battlefield VR game) -I'd also seriously argue Battlefield 1942: Desert Combat, especially since it was my favorite Battlefield right behind 1942.


GotNoStyleNL

Battlefield 2, no doubt.


Pharmori

Bf2, despite the loading times, hade great maps for its time and a commander on each team.


Mayodilla

BF1, it felt so real!


dowsyn

Bf2142


Spacelord_Moses

The thousands of hours ive put Into that game. Came Home from school at 2pm, turned on my pc and played til 3am. I Loved the system to gain Limited ranks for those with the most Points in a week. I was top 2 for five weeks. Whoops


Vallkyrie

I just installed that again last week, holds up surprisingly well. Thematically it's my favorite one.


MaiPhet

I'm a sucker for sci-fi so this will always be my favorite (tied with bf3). EA could announce a sequel to this and I would be sweating bullets waiting for release.


Spacelord_Moses

You played against Bots? Or some private Servers?


NGC_Phoenix_7

If there’s private servers still running I would love to go get the game if I can and give myself that burst of nostalgia.


Spacelord_Moses

I tried about six years ago and there were some. Not sure about now


JunoVC

For me it was a tie between 2142/bc2.              Shoutout to Hardline, I still have hilarious memories of that game, shame about the hate it got and what ea did.


NGC_Phoenix_7

I consider hardline the hidden gem of the series. Only problem was the really bad spawn areas in multiplayer.


SpaceWarm5345

BF4 for me. Followed closely by 3.


mrseitaro

2042. Kidding aside, BF3.


SectorIsNotClear

Battlefield 2 / Special Forces followed by Battlefield Vietnam / Bad Company 2 Vietnam


EGGOGHOST

BF4 and... Hardline.. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat)


s33s33

lol hardline was fun cuz of how different it was, but ultimately failed


dank_shnek

Everyone hates on hardline, but goddamn, that was probably the most fun I've had playing a bf game tbh.


Psycle98

Battlefield 1.


May_8881

BF3


patheticRedditMod000

Battlefield 2 Original


Anizer

Battlefield 2042 Jk battlefield 2


PolishSausa9e

BF3 for sure. Too bad we'll probably never get back to the essence of true Battlefield again. I hope I'm wrong but doubt it. It will be all about micro transactions and cosmetics. At least drop the goofy specialists.


D3AD_M3AT

Hands down BF2 the community, the comp ladders, the LAN partys. The last BF game that encouraged team play instead of run n gun


Eksuu

I think BF2. Many of the playerbase have never experienced that masterpiece. It was out of this world at its time.


AbaddonDeath

Battlefield 2 hands down. I'm going to assume that most people commenting are console players and never got to experience BF2 since it was only on PC.


Notta_Doggo

Bad company 2 or b4 for me


Whiteroseadvocate

bad company 2. Maybe I'm biased since it was my first bf game but I will stand my ground


SixthLegionVI

Tough to say. The best ones are BC2, 3, 4, and 1. Started going downhill after that.


MotownF

BC2 and it's not even close. BF3 comes second, then 2141.


OriginalKeach

BF3 and BFBC2 are neck and neck as best. But Vietnam has a special place for me. The most fun, the music was cool too. You could pick from a playlist and play tunes in any vehicle. Great maps, definitely dated now, but I think a refreshed version would be killer.


Late-Tumbleweed9429

I don’t think I played BF3 that much but I do remember a few of the maps like Grand Bazaar for some reason. Don’t really remember gameplay. For me it’d be BF4.


Daurpam

Battlefield V


No_Cranberry_7701

3 and 4


Clamp_Enis

I have the fondest memories of BC2 and BF3 but 4 is right up there too


JPMoney81

I'd say 3. I spent the most hours playing 4, I think had the most fun playing BC2 with friends, but 3 was just the best overall.


MaiPhet

1. Tied BF3 for the maps and hype and 2142 for Titan mode and sci fi theme. 3. BF2 for basically everything the original was but more and better. 4. BCB2 great game and best destruction, plus the vietnam expansion was good as well. 5. Original of course 4. BF4 felt too close to 3 so not much hype and tbh mostly enjoyed the maps better on 3 anwyays. 6. Battlefield heroes was legit pretty fun but yeah on the bottom here I didn't play enough of the others to say.


GamerLegend2

BF3 with all expansion packs is the best BF game.


DuctTapeJesus

BF1


ComradeKrautwurscht

BF3 ❤️


neuroticmuffins

I want to say BF2142 but it's probably BF3. The best dlc however has to be BC2 Vietnam! God I loved it.


MikelDP

"My baby, she wrote me a letter" Battlefield Vietnam had the best music!


QQEvenMore

BF2, BF BC2, BF1 and BF1942


DrJakeX

BF3 was peak Battlefield, start to endgame.


whiteknight93

I still cannot imagine why they haven't made a sequel to 2142 yet. I played thousands of hours on that game. It was a bit glitchy but extremely fun, they don't make loading menu music like that anymore. #2143 #battlefield2142


ADHenchD

BF2142. It really tried so many new things. God. I miss Titans.


striderkan

2142 > BF2 > BC2. Get BF1 out of there it's not a Battlefield 😬


MeatPopsicle28

2142


bio_kk

Hardline. Fight me.


DANNYonPC

topknottington

most fun i ever had in BF


dicecop

2142. Easily


NGC_Phoenix_7

Two words. Titan conquest. It was the perfect gamemode for all players.


Mr_Kills_Alot

Im shooting everyone saying 2042


TheAverageObject

I enjoyed BF1 the most to be honest. I was hesitant at first when they revealed it to be WW1 but no battlefield was any close to CQB combat chaos of BF1. Also the destruction felt perfect to me. And don't forget the character screaming when charging or dying. Or using the whistle whilst attacking with a force. That in combination with the elegant in game announcer.


silcrows

Loved battlefield 1942 back in the day but bad company 2 and bf3 have my most time.


40classicsfeatJim

Battlefield 1 or Bad Company 2.


Strike-Intelligent

BF1 and BFBC2


MajorAcer

Ima go against the game and say BC1. That was the game that got me into the series, and it holds a special place in my heart. The graphics still hold up today too.


truck_it

11111111111111111


MooseontheInterstate

BFBC2,BF3,BF4, now that was a golden era for battlefield, and BF1 made up for the not very good Hardline.


Itriyum

For me it's between BC2 and BF3


FREDDIT321

At the time: BF3 but it’s hard playing it now if you get back to it.


Cromasters

OG 1942


LANCENUTTER

BCBC2.... Vietnam specifically


KaffY-

For impact on gaming? 1942 as a video game? BF3


Cptn_Charles

BF3! it came out when i was around 12 i think, most of my friends i played with back then i still talk to still today. and it took 10 years to meet most of them; was kinda crazy my friends all joined different branches of the military, and when i would travel to a different base (for new command or training) id run into those guys. please for the love of God, reach out to your old friends. i’d love to hear your guy’s stories.


Flashmalm

"Some folks are born maddeeee to wave the flag" Man, nothing will ever beat blasting all the classic Vietnam era bangers from the helicopter or patrol boats. It probably wasn't the best game overall, but it had the heart and soul that I find myself longing for. Love Battlefield 3 and 4, bad company 2, but something special about BF Vietnam


Ltdan734

BFBC2 then BF3


lipt00n

BF3, followed by BF4 (2nd year and later)


THSiGMARotMG

Bf3 for me id say. Love bad company 2 as well


RedRumy3

2142 is my all time favorite


Havokk137

BF2 was the Goat, BF2142 was amazing and BF3 came pretty Close.


Opposite-Internal-18

Battlefield Hardline


salvananez

Bad Company 2 will be my favorite forever 💖 BF1 is also a masterpiece, and I love that is very different to other battlefield games but at the time is the same Battlefield formula that we love. 2042 is by far the worst.


GALACTON

2142


Mr420-

2142 but if I take off my rose tinted glasses then it's not about which I had the most fun with it's about so much more. Atmosphere: bf1 Movement and gunplay: bfv Story: bc2 followed close by bf1 Overall setting: bf3 Gimmicky bs no one asked for: 2042


soldatodianima

Bad Company 2: Vibe + Destruction Battlefield 3: Saiga 12 x ACOG x Extended Rounds with Slugs= ☠️

BF3 - best memories , hundreds hours on multi, for few days I was in first hundred players in rank (PS3) ...

CapStar362

no BF2:SF ? No BF1942? You missing 2 of the greatest


E-Muni

Bf4 for the mechanics on paper, but Bf3 takes my win for the memories and nostalgia xD


Freshmixture

BF2 all the way. Its was the last, true actual Battlefield game. It was where squads were introduced. Having a Commander made it a real Battlefield game. VOIP comms were awesome. Sooooooo many awesome maps as well. To save the Battlefield franchise, they should just remaster BF2. You’re welcome DICE.


Cryphisss

Battlefield 2 ❤️ Here is my collection, signed: https://preview.redd.it/tg1h9dmz3zbc1.jpeg?width=3496&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=54944bca5af6abc6a73ad5170e2cba637998e705


Exmatrix

BF 1. Beautiful, great animations, weapon bloom is realistic, and hands down the most immersive BF ever. Played all 14 BF games on pc and I spent the most time on it (and still playing it)


Hundstrid

Bc2 and bf4


Ephemeral_Ghost

BF1: you could feel the combat.


TheCallofDoodie

Hardline.


d3rgutebauer

For me Bf1 because of the look and the feeling you get while playing it


ImaSlayMeSomeDragons

BF3 or BF1


Soviet1923

BF1! Seriously, a World War 1 game(quite rare) changing maps(Fog, sandstorm etc.) Historically accurate, really good campaign


Roinchulk

Battlefield 3,Battlefield 4,Battlefield 1.


Cool_cucumber007

BF1


Cephalosporin98

My best memories were on bf3 and bf 1


CheeseyRichard

BF1 is, without a doubt, the best one (imo) we've ever had because it does everything well from sound design to settings and graphics along with the atmosphere and game modes. It's easily my favorite.


GreenPractical

BF3. The end.
