Battlefield 2042 doesn't count. What is your opinion? I think Battlefield 6 is the worst. It doesn't even feel like Battlefield game. Bf6 had COD developers, so that makes sense. Seasons didn't fix anything at all, they might have even made some aspects worse. Some new maps like Tsuru Reef or Golmud aren't bad, but mid. Maybe in the older Battlefield games they might be good, but in bf6 large maps feel terrible. The vehicles in the game are terribly made. They have bad physics and bad balance, It doesn't have progression, they just suck. It’s not interesting to drive the vehicles in bf6. Weapon balance at long range is also very strange. I loved playing as a sniper in the older Battlefield games, but in bf6, I don't play that class at all it's just not interesting and feels terrible. SBMM here is just like in Call of Duty, and it sucks. I hate battle passes in every game so they suck too. Leveling up weapons is still quite a long and tedious process, even after all fixes. For some reason, the developers have this obsession with giving players as little ammo in their magazines as possible. I just don't get it why they so much greedy with ammo. The netcode is also absolute crap. For some reason support has box with both ammo and health. And that makes the Assault useless. Graphics look terrible at times, and it's not up to the standard of the old DICE. Long story short, I think this is objectively the worst game in the series. After all the fixes, even 2042 might not be that bad.

oh, sure, now it doesn't count, but it was surely the "worst" on release, just like this one
y'all gonna be saying the same thing about 6 when 7 is out, boring

Maybe. But after bf6, I don't think I'll buy bf7 if it of same poor quality as bf6. I'll try beta, and everything will become clear.

Bf2042 or hardline, hard to decide.

as a shooter game, damn bullets dont deal damage, easily one of the worst fps games in the entire video game history, and can still be worst.

6 definitely is the worst Battlefield I've ever played. It's not an end of the world though, as the game's not even an year old yet and like we all should know, EA/Dice release games that they'll continue to develop and fix for the next three years. But if you compare 6 to 2042, V or 1 it doesn't even feel like an Battlefield game. I mean technically 2042 is not a Battlefield-game either, as it was made as an hero-extraction shooter, but imo the Breakthrough in that game felt a thousand times better than it does in 6. You can tell they brought CoD-devs into this game's production, because some maps and modes (Breakthrough) is like playing the Modern Warfare multiplayer. You just run and gun, and hope for the best. For how cramped everything is, it's annoying how slowly you move around, and for the gunning part it's annoying how little damage certain guns seem to do.
If you quick-scope an enemy from less than 5 meters and get an direct headshot, and they don't die to it (kill cam showing they have 50% hp left), what even is the point to give sniper riffles scopes that are less than 8x magnification? You definitely can't snipe anyone from over ~30 meters away, because you can't even see the enemies from that distance with 6x scope, and yeah I guess it'd be kinda op to make their own AWP in Battlefield, but snipers are so tedious to grind because you need a ten friendlies shooting the same enemies for hundreds of bullets in order for you to get the kill.

a 127 ping player kills me (upto 30 ping) first ?
dude takes 2 headshots and walks away like nothing ever happened.
public lobbies are insane. i even get ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up by console players.
It feels like they messed up the game with Season 4.

Console players have aim-assists enabled in multiplayer games, and you can't disable cross-play on PC due to arbitrary EA decision.
And console cheaters have some fancy hardware that mimics gamepad but they play with keyboard and mouse, also is very scriptable hardware too, from what I heard.
Not sure if EA bans those, but it was so common and annoying in Marvel Rivals that they started banning people for that after issuing a community wide statement. I wouldn't be surprised if EA Javelin couldn't catch those.

Yes there are plenty of console cheaters, just like PC. Doesn’t mean legit players on console, can’t be good players

Let's talk about which is the best, easily shared #1 spot with BF3 and BF Hardline.

These games went in the gutter BF3 onwards. I blame bf3/4 for why 6 is the way it is.
