No thanks.

I like Hot Pursuit Remastered and play it every now and then as good arcade racers and getting hard to find.

I haven't enjoyed a BF game since Bad Company 2... and everything newer is truly awful.

Bf3 and 4 were some of the most popular are best selling shooters of their time. 1, V, and 2042? Eh, pass

I had fun with 1, but it was definitely on the decline. So many cheaters I remember

BFV is objectively the best BF game mechanically and content-wise and it’s not close. Unfortunately the awful reputation it rightly earned throughout most of its lifespan will forever rob it of its throne.

Battlefield 4, after they fixed it (mostly) and released all the DLC, was great. Still is regularly played.

Something happened starting with BF1, and I just didn't like it. The physics felt wrong, the gameplay loop felt annoying. I tried BFV, which was a joke at launch. The Pacific Theatre DLC was alright, but the physics still felt bad, and I found the UI to be ugly. Then DICE just completely dropped the game, I guess it must have not been very popular. Surprise surprise.

BFV was a great game marred by awful executive meddling causing issues several times throughout its run but support was dropped for it because it was at the end of its life cycle (The same as the battlefield preceding it). But it was and is to this day actually one of the most popular games in the series, along with BF1. It (and BF1) dwarf the players of both BF4 and BF2042
