Absolutely! I have no issue with C4 jeeps I think that poo poo is fun as hell because if I get got well I was out doing stuff and then I can just spawn back in and not have to queue up again to parachute in or whatever. At least Plunder modes are less bad for respawn but it's not the fun "dad mode" it used to be.

Verdansk is in the toilet. Every game mode on that map is awful. There’s still fun to be had in resurgence on Alcatraz island, but it’s still extremely sweaty. You just don’t get as much shitlording like hiding in bathrooms because there aren’t as many opportunities to do that poo poo.

That’s why I’m pumped for a new BF (and Halo), Warzone is very stale.

Yeah it seems hilarious to me that Raven or whoever thought "Verdansk - but muddier!" would be a good sell for another full year of warzone. That poo poo is played out!

I was always a Battlefield person over CoD and am super excited about this one after the crushing disappointment that was BFV (heck I didn't even care for BF1 that much although it was an actual game unlike V)

It's really the most satisfying way to get kills in Battlefield. All the setup and effort and attempts that failed due to getting shot through the windshield pay off when you successfully survive Abu Hajaaring a tank.

One of the reasons I fell in love with operations in Battlefield and the breakthrough/rush modes in particular is that it would allow me some leisure from time to time. Sometimes I just wanna chill in the back, spot things for my team, and listen to idiots rambling on YouTube in the background.

My favorite thing to do in BF3 was to kill chopper campers on my own team by rushing them in a jeep and bailing out. You couldn’t TK in that game in any way, even by roadkill, but an unmanned vehicle didn’t count. I used to pancake those clowns daily.

I was a little disappointed about the lack of sticky dynamite in BF1 but horses gave you a pair of self-refilling grenades no matter what class you were when you hopped on one, and your could still toss explosives from the sidecar in a motorcycle.

the steam charts 24h peak suggests it already has more players in the last day than it had for years

King Carl was pretty solid for infantry fighting, but once I got good at aiming I could never part from the AT4.

I respected the AT4 but it still wasn’t as satisfying as nailing a Carl shot on a moving helo.

Horn customization is the only customization I want. If you've done races in GTA V, the cacophony of everyone honking at the start is fantastic.

Prime is just the base game, Steam has it with the expansions for :10bux:. Mainly I just wasn't sure if it was worth the extra for One/5 or to give them a skip.

$8 on origin as dlc
https://www.greenmangaming.com/games/battlefield-4-premium-edition-pc/
$7.04 on GMG as standalone

I'd just buy it as dlc if you end up liking it enough

5 was bad and I never played 1 so I can't speak on that bit

On a BF2 server with friendly fire damage on: I hopped on top of an enemy Abrams' turret to escape an attack helicopter. Both were very confused and it took way longer than it should have for someone to hop out and shoot me.

In BF4 I got someone spouting chud conspiracy stuff banned by saying "You seem upset" and "Actually the government is good" until he threatened to find me IRL.

In the original 1942, before a certain patch, you could do that with just TNT on a friendly tank/jeep. You could just throw TNT on the back and detonate it and if FF was off it would fling the jeep/tank. We'd regularly throw them from one uncap to the other on El Alamein
