Which title is more enjoyable today? BF 2042 or BF V?
I tried to search for reviews and stuff like that but I only found outdated informations.

Both are great but BFV is just Conquest now. Barely any breakthrough servers up.

BFV is much better, BFV is one of my fav BF games.
But i am REALLY into WW2 games, i just love that era, so maybe that is why.

in terms of theme, BFV is better, more grounded, with very detailed visuals and with better balance overall based very heavily in WW2, but in terms of grinding, content, and gameplay variety, and if you prefer modern weapons, BF2042 is better, so it's more based on your preference

WW1 and WW2 eras are great for games because there's a lot of stuff going on, wunderwaffe, variety of weapons that aren't too overpowered, lots of trading blows between vehicles, and lots of ways you can balance the battlefield.
Modern era sucks for gaming because weapons now kill faster then ever and they need to nerf everything to keep the game fun and fair.

Thanks, I think I'll stick with BF V for now and try to learn something on the tank gameplay...

Exactly man, and don't forget the atmosphere, and music. BFV is my third fav OST from the Battlefield series, with BF3 and 4 being the first 2.

2042 and V get a lot of unneeded hate.
That being said, going from the BF1 trailer to the BFV trailer didn't help. I could see why a lot of gamers were just turned away. Sucks because BFV had some great maps.
Oh and I loved the BFV music. Absolutely killed it. My top 3 are probably 1, V and 2042.
