Yes they are, maybe you just aren't from a time when you had to work for achievements. For years. and you look like you have 18/24 months to go.
A major part of playing Battlefield 2 was the working towards ranks and achievements, BF2Stats would predict how long it would take you to get them and help to work towards them.
Yes there were the sweaties that maxed them out in weeks, but as a normal player I worked on them for YEARS, not all because I never use armour or aircraft, sniper, etc.
Getting them really was something and because I didn't fly I never got past colonel, not that it mattered.
I saw the grenade self kill/team mate revive stat padding in the main spawn this week. Haven't seen that for 15 years.
The only thing that may be against the years is the support for the game. BF2 lasted 10 years, but it was a different age and hackers were there but not in the way they are now on subscription.
Now BFV has no active cheat protection it is unplayable, three hackers in the three rounds I could stomach before uninstall, and not maybe - definitely.
Does BF2042 have the years needed to complete the tiers? With support - yes, without and dropped in 12-18 months - no.
Personally - fantastic they take that long, a serious long term onbjective not to be worried about just played and what a change from the console awards we have had for the past 10+ years.
@halo572That is what I liked about BF2 was the longevity and how long it took for awards and such but games these days are not built to last for 10 years. Well, not FPS games. Gamers these days have an attention span of a squirrel and have no patients so games are built these days to instantly gratify and last 1 or 2 years and then move on to the next one.
