Giving everyone here a heads up that BF3 is free through Origin.

The idea of war is not to die for your country, it's to make the enemy die for his.

I've played BF4 and I found it to be awful. Way too many bugs and not enough different content from BF3. I still consider BF3 to be superior and I hope that one day, mods will eventually be allowed. I think it was last year when Bad Company 2 mods were finally supported.

You would have loved the older Battlefield titles then. BF1942, BF2, Bad Company. Sadly, BF4 doesn't even come close to how good the series used to be.

 

BF1942 and BF2 had some of the best modding communities. WW1 mods, WW2 mods, Vietnam Mods, Modern Combat Mods, and even Star Wars Mods. You can even find servers  where people still actively play.

 

Its a bit disappointing to see where EA has taken Battlefield today. To me, BF4 just felt like a generic arcade shooter. As steep of a learning curve these games have, I prefer playing Red Orchestra, Arma, and Insurgency. The gameplay offered is way more indepth but they can be unforgiving on newer players.

It's a free-to-play game in open beta currently, and I really get a BF1942 vibe from it.

Following some uncoordinated event, this is the official policy of Cadana Pajan. Our nation (or I) will not follow orders from anyone, unless:
1) it has been communicated clearly to me from "higher up the hierarchy" that this individual is indeed an official for IRON.
2) The orders are given, or can be verified, through the forums.
