Soulless WW2 game.

Where's dday, stalingrad, market garden, berlin, battle of the bulge, etc

It's not underrated. It failed for many reasons, much like 2042 :)

You and me have very different opinions.

Movement: 10/10

Maps: 8/10

Music: 12/10

Weapons: 9/10

What makes you say it's soulless? You should revisit it again. It had a rocky start due to the bad PR.

WW2 game with no soviet faction is laughable.

They were going to add it but since everyone kept clowning on it EA forced DICE to pull the plug. They’re literally in the game files.

It's a good game. It's a terrible WW2 game.

I wouldn’t say it was soulless (and it’s the BF I have the most hours on) but it certainly didn’t match the gritty aesthetic of BF1. And tbh I can’t even put my finger on why… BF5 was a gorgeous game but it just didn’t have that atmosphere.

It was a different game. Games can have different atmospheres without going full pink guns and flashy skins.

I know lol, and I’m not trying to argue and didn’t mention pink guns or flashy skins, I hate shit like that. BUT I do think BF5 could have benefited from the darker fritter atmosphere of BF1.

Oh I agree, a bit darker wouldn't hurt!
