Battle field games

Years before Call of Duty followed suit--and only in certain levels--with Black Ops, Battlefield had already headed to one of the most controversial wars in American history with Battlefield Vietnam. It aimed to deliver an accurate representation of the jungle-based warfare soldiers experienced during the decade-long conflict, with helicopters and jet fighters both available to pilot as ground troops clashed in the brush underneath.

Punji sticks weren't just for Tony Hawk, so you'd also have to watch your step to make sure you weren't sent to a very painful early grave. See our Battlefield Vietnam review. Shifting from the ultra-serious tone of many of the other Battlefield games and featuring a full single-player campaign--the series was largely known for multiplayer-only and bot-based matches at the time--Battlefield: Bad Company helped to introduce the franchise to an entirely new audience.

The game's destruction, made possible by an early version of the Frostbite engine, helped to keep matches feeling tense, and even those who just wanted a roller coaster ride campaign were in for a good time. The only people who weren't? That would be rectified with its sequel, which came to all three. See our Battlefield: Bad Company review. Released to coincide, roughly, with the launch of the PS4 and Xbox One, Battlefield 4 was an absolute mess at launch--it simply crashed to the dashboard as often as it worked as intended.

But after a few patches, it became one of the best modern-era Battlefield games around. With incredible destruction through a new system dubbed "Levolution," entire skyscrapers would routinely crash to the ground and change the entire map, often while taking down lots of players in the process.

It once again featured a single-player campaign that reached an explosive finale, and it even featured the late Michael K. Williams in a major role.

Battlefield 4 wasn't the greatest game in the series, but it showed us just what was possible with new technology. See our Battlefield 4 review. Not the th interaction of the game, but rather the very first, introducing the massive, all-out battles across land, air, and sea that continue to define the series to this day. As with some of its successors, Battlefield is a global warfare game, with multiple battles and locations featured across its 16 maps. At the time, the series was exclusive to PC, allowing for cutting-edge--at least at the moment--technology compared to what was offered in most console games.

It's surprising just how much of the game's DNA we still see in modern Battlefield games, including the ticket system and mix of several vehicle types without throwing off a multiplayer match's balance. Is it still worth playing today? Probably not, but it's worth appreciating. The game that would be a bit of a hint of things to come, Battlefield 2 was ahead of its time in many respects. It went to modern-day combat years before Call of Duty did so, and with a bullet penetration system and player PC battles, it made for something on a scale most players had never seen.

It also included Commander mode, a strategic role that let one person oversee a battle and make decisions from an eye in the sky. This mode would later be brought back for Battlefield 4, another modern-day entry, and added a level of coordination and tactical planning to attacks that wasn't present in the previous games.

Unfortunately, the "real" version of the game is only available on PC, with the console-exclusive Modern Combat offering a completely different and inferior experience.

It was locked at the beginning of the game as a challenge to see which player base of the two platforms will reach 43 million kills first. The multiplayer gameplay consists of players Conquest mode, but some of the mechanics were modified to bring a unique taste to the game. For example, the ammo was unlimited and the health would regain over time.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the second part of the amazing original Bad Company version. Its single-player gameplay is much more intensive and still has that unique experience of the original version. It begins during the great World War II and it is probably the best single-player campaign so far. The multiplayer mode this time has improved compared to the original Bad Company.

Conquest is just like the regular Conquest mode, and Squad Rush is a small-scale game mode of Rush. Squad Deathmatch consists of 4 squads fighting each other, each squad has 4 players and the first squad to reach 50 kills is the winner. The multiplayer mode was even more impressive because of the quality sound effects and amazing physics of destruction.

Bad Company 2 Vietnam is the only expansion that was added to the game, it has the same original characters, but takes you to the Vietnam war. All the weapons and war machines are changed to suit the Vietnam war. Battlefield Online was just a remake of Battlefield 2 with very bad visuals and a pretty much dead player base.

It was free-to-play and directed towards the Eastern Market by the development of Neowiz Games. There is really nothing to say about this game other than being completely useless and full of technical issues.

They finally decided to shut down the game for the good in Battlefield Play4Free was similar to Battlefield Heroes in terms of being free-to-play and pay-to-win at the same time. The game simply uses the in-game currency that is used to buy permanent powerful weapons and armor. This currency is called Battlefunds and can be purchased with real money. The game has no single-player mode and totally revolves around the multiplayer gameplay which consists of the Conquest mode.

The weapons are taken from Bad Company 2 and the maps and taken from Battlefield 2, things that actually make it a game with no personality. This game was also taken down in just like Battlefield Online and Battlefield Heroes. Battlefield 3 started a whole new era for the franchise. It is indeed one of the best games in the franchise with great multiplayer gameplay. The game also featured the Frostbite 2.

That means the visual effects were, obviously, much better compared to the previous versions of the game. Battlefield 3 featured a large variety of weapons, vehicles, and jets, in addition to large maps capable of containing 64 players.

The game also introduced the Premium membership which contains all the available expansions. Each of these expansions brought new weapons, vehicles, maps, and game modes to the game. Battlefield 3: Aftershock is an exclusive entry in the franchise released exclusively for iOS via the App Store.

The aforementioned was set to release alongside Battlefield 3 but was later delayed. The game was released for free back then. Unfortunately, it was later pulled to the negative reception it had received. The Battlefield community complained about the irritating controls, lack of maps, game modes, and weapons.

Battlefield 4 is just as good as Battlefield 3 and even better. The multiplayer gameplay has improved and the console users can now experience the players game modes. Also, there was an obvious improvement in single-player gameplay, compared to Battlefield 3.

The game actually had many technical issues at the beginning such as bugs or connection failures, but later everything was fixed. Battlefield 4 features the old multiplayer Commander mode in addition to using the new Frostbite 3 engine which improved visual effects of destruction. The game also had the premium membership, as Battlefield 3 had.

It contains all the available expansions for the game which introduce new weapons, maps, and much more to the game. Battlefield Hardline is the first game in the franchise to be developed by Visceral Games. The game is introducing police and robbers gameplay which takes out the original military taste of the franchise. However, new multiplayer modes were added to the game including Heist , Blood Money , and Hotwire modes.

Battlefield 1 is one of the best games in the franchise. It takes us all the way back to WWI for the first time! The game is covering many WWI stories and war fronts almost everywhere in the war. Many new weapons and war machines were introduced to the game, such as poison gas and flamethrowers. Not to mention the amazing and unique graphics which were never seen in any of the previous games.

The horses were also introduced in this game for the first time alongside a wide variety of melee weapons. This Premium membership feature which was introduced in Battlefield 3 is included in this game as well, but for the last time.

The multiplayer gameplay introduces new modes and features such as using a bayonet to charge directly into the chest of your enemy. One of the new mechanics is choosing between waiting for something to revive you or just skip it. The single-player campaign is called War Stories and allows you to experience the story of different characters across the various war fronts.
