Should have played BFV then, tanks were devastating when used right. You can easily break 100 kill games in tanks being aggressive even when you get good and you have a decent pilot to keep planes off you in the squad. It took teamwork to keep the tank going to, someone to repair, someone in the sky, and a good tanker.

@@simplepointstudio6210 First my comment is 5 months old. It was written right at launch, before the wait. Second, the 4.0 update proves there is still a chance for the game to be turned around. I do think the wait is absurd and there should have been some form of large content before Season 1, but I am happy they are fixing the game instead of just slapping content into it as is.
Ok I'll agree with the old man on one thing here, helicopters. I was in a Wildcat yesterday and got blown up by a little bird using anti personnel rockets on me because the dude was doing mini circles right above me. Nothing I could do
People in games: "TANKS DO TOO MUCH DAMAGE THEY ARE SO OP THEY SHOULDJUST HAVE ARMOR" Ahh yes... the tanks in WW2 that did no damage and weren't the difference between winning and losing. If you want tanks in a game, they will 1 shot you and have borderline un-killable armor to most ground troops. That's how they are designed
They obviously need balancing numbnuts, 99% of people don't even use tanks as intended in BF they sit at the back of the map and run away when they take 1hp damage.

@@luis-ciphermstar6597 I hope things get better, this franchise has a prime spot in my heart for the potential it has, but things need to change and I don't think they will in a bit, definitely not in 2042 unfortunately (too many changes to important mechanics)
I believe this applies to BF Hardline, BFV and maybe BF2042 from what I have seen so far, we didn't know how alive BF series was with BC2, BF3, and BF4.
Does not matter, at the time people saw any new Game has "The Past game was Better"
There will always be that sub-Group.
@@johnpijano4786 Especially in the case of Battlefield it's true
The old man represents r/Battlefield2042 right now.
Fucking for real. I just had a dude say the game is so bad it'll ruin DICE.
Like dude, the game is not that bad.
@@TheStrikeofGod I think a lot of the bitching comes from the fact that people there are relatively new to the franchise, and BF games have a knack on making people tilt really hard at times. There's some incredibly stupid takes on that subreddit that I'm confident that people made and upvoted out of anger and frustration.
Personally, I've been playing 2042 around 5-10 hours each day since it got released, haven't had this much fun in a game for ages.
@@TheSanityX Same, the game is a bit rough in spots but the framework is solid. I genuinely believe this will be as big as BF4 when all is said and done.
@@TheStrikeofGod "I genuinely believe this will be as big as BF4 when all is said and done."
Dude, how fucking long do we have to wait? Its been 6 months now and still missing some basic details.
@@simplepointstudio6210 First my comment is 5 months old. It was written right at launch, before the wait.
Second, the 4.0 update proves there is still a chance for the game to be turned around.
I do think the wait is absurd and there should have been some form of large content before Season 1, but I am happy they are fixing the game instead of just slapping content into it as is.
Ok I'll agree with the old man on one thing here, helicopters. I was in a Wildcat yesterday and got blown up by a little bird using anti personnel rockets on me because the dude was doing mini circles right above me. Nothing I could do
I mean that’s when you need a squadmate with a rocket launcher to cover you
People in games: "TANKS DO TOO MUCH DAMAGE THEY ARE SO OP THEY SHOULDJUST HAVE ARMOR"
Ahh yes... the tanks in WW2 that did no damage and weren't the difference between winning and losing.
If you want tanks in a game, they will 1 shot you and have borderline un-killable armor to most ground troops. That's how they are designed
They obviously need balancing numbnuts, 99% of people don't even use tanks as intended in BF they sit at the back of the map and run away when they take 1hp damage.
The people bitching whats new. Tanks are op, get better scrub.
@@ZKronicMon You definitely sit out of bounds with a tank and spawn the spawn vehicle selection 🤣
@@jackpaterson5949 nah sorry I have not played the last two BF games. I would shell creates from a distance but that was long ago.
@@ZKronicMon No point playing either, they're horrendous. BF4 was the last tactical game to use tanks.
Except none of these classes even exist anymore :(
This is a fine way to start a Monday! I love waking up to BFF and my morning cup of coffee!
um, its Tuesday buddy
@@BOGARD_ dang! Tuesday already! I'm past due to get out of the hospital!

Doraleous actually plays the Little League Coach in Parental Guidance, a role in which he explains to Billy Crystal that nobody on the team loses.
When you realize you’re the old guy…
I don't get it.
Wait until that old man sees 2042
He loves it apparently.
They did it to ruin Battlefield.
One of my favorite episodes!
Back then this video was (still is) funny as hell. Now its to real lol, R/Battlefield is a hellscape. People can't be happy about anything.
Too many shills sucking DICE dick does that. People are tired of consoomers constantly defending shitty business practices just because DUUUDE BRAND RECOGNITION. BF keeps getting worse and worse because of the 'let people enjoy things!' consoomer crowd that pre-orders digital-effing-games and provides DICE/EA with the money necessary to not give a crap about quality control, or even keeping Battlefield as 'Battlefield' and not some dumb ass hero shooter battle royale BS.
@@shadow7988 Hey dude, breath. Jeez.
@@NickWayXIII Gatekeeping exists for a reason. Stop shilling for people trying to sell lemons and maybe people wouldn't get so annoyed about franchises they've been invested in for literally decades at this point being run into the dirt constantly pandering to the lowest possible denominators.
@@shadow7988 You seem to hold yourself to a very high horse and assume other people haven't been playing the same games as you since the start. Either way, you can bitch, you can moan, you can cause all the noise you want but at the end of the day I'll be okay with games changing over time and still enjoying them while you're nearing the point of an aneurysm because you're that mad about a video game.
Have a good night and I hope you find some peace.
@@shadow7988 I can say the same thing for, art, sports, chess, books, i can say the same thing for anything
This episode was ahead of its time XD
Time to retire boys. You've done good work, but time to retire the battlefield friends. Had a good run since BF3.
R.I.P RECON AKA THICK 44
The boomer “they ruined [insert game] after [insert patch]” character applies to SO many multiplayer games.
Like it’s unbearably common to see someone do exactly this on a discord channel, subreddit, whatever.
@@shaunhayes3072 “don’t criticize people for thinking” sooo… don’t debate anything? Lol.
Mostly just yanking your chain with that, don’t take it seriously. In my mind there’s a difference between general disagreement with something, and the character archetype in the BFF episode that disagrees with something strictly because it’s not like the “good old days” and no other decent argument.
in fairness most of the time it's true. games have gotten on a whole worse than they used to be. older gamers remember when games were good but unbalanced. now every dev destroys fun stuff for the sake of keeping it "balanced'
@@titolovely8237 I feel like this opinion is dishonest to the limitations of perspective.
Maybe you feel this way about the games you’ve gotten into seriously, but I’m absolutely sure there are games that are significantly better with change. No Man’s Sky is a solid example
@@Josh-kx4zo they didn't really change no mans sky much, mostly added stuff and the game at release was so bad that every change was welcome
@@badgermcbadger1968 Hard disagree with “didn’t change No Man’s Sky much”
ruclips.net/video/KcDvreJTxuM/видео.html
If you unironically believe that “not much has changed” with this case, than you must believe that patches don’t exist for most other games with that world view…
The heck is a rendezook? I was dying at that line
The "they ruined Battlefield by adding black people?" lines hits different now.
If that happened today they'd have every incel on the internet crying "woke".

We all started as one of the 4 primary characters and now we're the old man. Times they are a changing.
I start as a noob, and still noob unfortunately
Holds up more today then it did back then
2042 ruined Battlefield...
TBH, if the boys played BF2, they'd understand why old timers say they ruined Battlefield.
Hear, hear.
