"There is so much more complexity to Battlefield 2 than there is in any newer Battlefield game. It's a tragedy how much has been lost from the series. And the series is just coming off of two of the most over-simplified games in the series. I really hope that 2042 completely turns things around in that regard."
You did not play much BF1 or BFV did you ??? There is no truth to this statement at all. Conquest Assault is the game mode you are referring to and BF1 had 5 maps with this mode..
Reload full mags... please silly option and the reload mechanic in BF1 and V was must more refined and balanced.
You are going to have a big shock when BF2042 is launched because it's not going to play anything like BF4.
@ShevermiN Rather, there is no truth at all to your naysaying. And I can hardly imagine a more silly comment than the one you made there.
>> "You did not play much BF1 or BFV did you ???"
Actually, I played a ton of Battlefield 1, and enough of Battlefield 5.
Battlefield 1, outside of Bf 1942 and Vietnam, is the most simplified and dumbed-down Battlefield game in the entire series. It's also the worst-performing Battlefield in the series' history, by player-retention.
To compare either Bf1 or Bf5 to Battlefield 2, which is, by far, the most complex Battlefield in the entire series, outright says that you haven't played Battlefield 2. If you had, the thought of pitting them against Bf2 regarding complexity wouldn't have even crossed your mind because you'd know how extremely absurd it would be to try to pit one of the utmost simplistic games in the series against the most complex, specifically on the topic of game complexity.
>> "Conquest Assault is the game mode you are referring to and BF1 had 5 maps with this mode.."
In my comment, I wasn't focused on any specific game mode - I don't know how you got that out of what I said, or why you ended-up thinking I was complaining that Bf1 and Bf5 lack a certain game-mode. Also, the idea that two games having the same game-mode means they have the same complexity, when the game features and mechanics are extremely different, is ridiculous.
>> "Reload full mags... please silly option and the reload mechanic in BF1 and V was must more refined and balanced."
The reload mechanic in Bf1 and Bf5 isn't more refined or balanced... those aren't even words that can apply to it. In Bf1 and Bf5, reloading is just reloading from the total pool of ammo. While, in Bf2, reloading is reloading from the total pool of ammo, minus the ammo that's left in the clip that's being replaced with a new one. The Bf2 reload style involves management and more tactical thinking and mindful use of ammo, and so it requires more thinking from players and makes for more advanced playing.
Considering how ridiculous everything you said in your comment is, you should be very familiar with what's silly. But I don't think that makes you a good judge of what is and what isn't silly - otherwise, you wouldn't have made the post you did.
The great thing about options is that they're options and not forced on people. As an option, it would be great to be able to use Bf2's more advanced reloading system that adds layers of complexity to the game through resource management and attrition, and mindful and conservative usage of ammo (which changes how engagements occur and play-out). Bf2's ammo system affords for a higher level of playing and skill, which is more satisfying to people who seek deeper levels of thought and tactics in their gaming experiences.
And I don't think you have any good idea of what Bf 2042 is going to be like. I also don't know why you're assuming what other people expect it to be like. It seems that you do a lot of talking about things you have no familiarity with.
