Love hearing the boomer analogy, they’re in such desperate need of a Mp game they can actually play without be demolished, not many boomers and old timers in cod from my playing. This game is full of them, toxic boomers and adults picking on and trying to hang with the kiddies. Then they’re the ones constantly trying to dictate what the game needs and what it doesn’t to fit into their lame play style. This game is 99% spam, period, the ones that don’t see that, well there’s the problem.
@xProdicateWho hurt you? Bringing some generation stuff into this doesn't make any sense.
Are you talking about the same people older than you that have played many great games that came out before the Battlefront reboot and which were less casual overall than that?

I’ve went off subject far to much, as to the op, chances are if you really do like 15 you’ll probably not care much for bf2, it’s a totally different feeling game other than the name and the fact it’s 3rd person. Again, just going by the average numbers of most I meet in game.
Most guys don’t seem to cross over much that I know, meaning most bf2 guys I know dislike or even hate bf15, and most 15 guys don’t like bf2. The 2 games almost feel like they were made by different developers.
Still, you may like both, many love bf2 so don’t listen to others and 2nd hand info, try it for yourself, it’s the only way you’ll know. Also bf2 really caters to premades, so if you love playing with a lot of friends you may really like it.
- xProdicate5 years agoNot applicable@TRlALON, what I’m saying is most of the toxicity I’ve seen has come from older guys for what ever reason, not so much kids, yeah it exist but I’ve never played another game with so many toxic guys that literally take the time to send messages, and most being in large premades. Then HvV is as toxic of a mode as I’ve ever played. The compressed skillgap is a big part of the problem imo, it literally rewards large premades and goes against the solo guys it noobs. You can literally bowling ball your way to a win, other shooters will punish you for that type of gameplay, even bf15.
I get why the game was made as it was, it’s pretty obvious, but IMO they went overboard, even for a game meant to please everyone, which is what bf2 is imo.- xProdicate5 years agoNot applicable
That said I’ve also met some of the coolest older guys, heck I’m n a discord with them, all awesome guys but also mature guys. If you were on the old forums you would remember the typical groups, you know, all the so called know it all’s.
Most of them I knew were older guys that constantly griped about the gameplay, about lack is health buffs, speeder bikes, the infantry roll that sabers couldn’t hit/lack of skill btw. We went from a fairly balanced game in the beginning to a total unbalanced spam fest.
Same with HvV, the same groups that griped about the old HvV over and over until they got the current version that’s a total mess. It is what it is though, so forgive me for griping myself , I’m no better than the ones I describe, hopefully the next game will be great, even more, hopefully we have a next game.

I see. Btw what platform are you playing on?
Premade teams were definitely an issue on BF2015 as well on PC, so I'm not sure you encountered the same people from clans who took/take this game way too serious and pubstomped servers just as it happened in BFII, alongside other aspects of showing very poor sportsmanship.
I mean congrats, these guys act all cocky because they clinge on destroying the leftover of a dead casual game, with large parts of the other elite players who could be a real competition having moved on since a year ago. Mad respects.The drama and flamefest that was going on in the chat even without those people involved, it was an absolute disgrace and unfortunately happened not only sometimes.
Not even talking about the same cheaters who, after all this time, still have nothing better to do than using hacks in this game.
I hate to say so, but I have only few good memories of the BF2015 community left and it contributed a lot to me not returning to the game on a regular basis.
I can agree that premade teams or squad-stacking should've never been a thing, for both games. No matter on which end of the stick (even as the stack member) I am, it just kills the drive to continue.
At least such things, in BFII, have ceased to some extent as many of the tryhardy clans there have moved on since a long time ago too. We still have emergent clans etc. but those are way less a pain in the rear... yet.
It's an unfortunate pair of Battlefront and DICE implementing their usual stuff they normally use for Battlefield games, like no real matchmaking.
And parts of the communities who delight in abusing such features, of course.
