Battlefield 4 feels like it's stuck in time. When it came out in 2013, it may have been exciting with its large-scale battles and destructible environments, but playing it now in 2024, it just doesn’t hold up. If you’ve played Battlefield 3, you're not going to find a ton of innovation here. It feels more like an incremental update than a bold step forward.

The game has its moments—big explosions, chaotic multiplayer maps—but the gameplay just feels dated, especially when compared to newer Battlefield titles like Battlefield V or even 2042. The gunplay lacks the tightness and fluidity we expect from modern shooters, and honestly, the visuals aren't anything groundbreaking anymore. The "Levolution" feature (where buildings collapse during gameplay) was cool back then, but now? Meh. It’s not enough to carry the game. Even on its best maps, it struggles to feel fresh.

The campaign? Pretty forgettable. It feels like an afterthought, and unless you're really nostalgic for early 2010s military shooters, you're not missing much if you skip it entirely. Multiplayer still has its die-hard fans, but for a newcomer or someone revisiting it, the experience is a little clunky, and there are far better options out there for large-scale, team-based shooters today.

In short, Battlefield 4 hasn't aged well. You're better off jumping into more modern entries in the series for a far smoother and engaging experience.

The best battlefield imo. i would play this instead of 2042

The bag end of premium pass was handled by another studio, The guns came out very nice but the minor details ruined the experience, never fixed but you learned to love it cause they gave you something and it wasn't as bad as it could of been. Overall the game is still a blaze, servers are still fun and full, game might never die, lets be honest. Battlefield 4 is a Polished Battlefield 3 and since Beta (til dis day, TIL DIS DAY) it did not disappoint with its primary objective. That is battlefield moments, a unique fix I can't find anywhere else.
