Battlefields realistic graphics, dynamic gameplay, and sprawling multiplayer scenarios make it a top pick for those who crave intense, large-scale warfare experiences. The franchise's commitment to historical accuracy and cutting-edge tech has solidified its place in the gaming hall of fame, giving players a taste of strategic, team-based FPS action that's hard to beat.
Now, let's talk Battlefield 5. It's a decent game, no doubt, but it could've been even better if it had sidestepped some of the "woke" pitfalls. The decision to introduce politically charged elements like female soldiers stirred the pot, dividing the player base. Some argued it sacrificed historical accuracy and immersion for a forced political agenda. A more player-centric and historically grounded approach could've made Battlefield 5 a universally praised gem, focusing on delivering an enjoyable experience without getting bogged down in unnecessary controversies.

These scores evaluate a company's sustainability, ethics, and governance. In the media realm, high ESG scores attract socially conscious investors, potentially pouring funds into projects aligned with responsible business practices. This emphasis on ethics can push media companies to adopt socially responsible policies, shaping the content they produce. ESG scores aren't just numbers; they're the invisible hands molding the narratives we consume. - Ігри

Every studio does this these days. Set a ridiculously short timeline, release an unfinished game, then hope the fans stick around long enough to fix it. Battlefield has been guilty of it for a long time and, lucky for DICE, they usually do a good job of fixing things relatively quickly.
It’s sad that dices last big hit was BF1
I used to test games for a living.
Being on the team for COD: Black Ops Declassified was what made me quit the industry entirely.
V was my final straw pre ordered and walked away from the franchise after playing every release since bad company. I play Enlisted now, much better. Only hardcore… BFV without hardcore was lame.

18:05 The Norwegian heavy water sabotage (background for "nordlys") was done by Norwegian comandos trained in the UK. The British soldiers they sent first, all got killed or captured out right. The Norwegians did the sabotage without casualties.
That sounds like a way better mission

Yep and they replace them with a mom and daughter and disrespecting the actual people in history.
You're absolutely correct about the "females in combat rolls" issue.
Female PT standards for the Army when I was in from 2008-2014 were a lot lower than the males of the same age. I heard they moved away from that with the new pt testing. Having one standard across the board. But found that the majority of females couldn't do the leg tucks. I believe the army moved back to the gendered standards after they saw that females couldn't pass the new test. Which is wrong if women are allowed in combat MOS's, then the standards must be the same. Period.
Also, during my time in.. most of the females that I encountered were either pregnant or on profile and were nondeployable. The worst was that so many couldn't pass PT, yet they would still get promoted instead of being booted out. The guys would get counseled and were passed up for promotion if they failed PT... if it continued, then they were kicked out.
But in war-time... this crap will get people 💀... 🤡💩
If the standards are the same you can trust the competency of the soldiers you are with. If not, you will never trust the ones who are not held to the same standards. This will increase negative stereotypes of those people and actually hurts them, not to mention potentially getting them or those in their squad killed.
IIRC, there was also a study done by the Marines in which they found women suffered a higher rate of injury while moving with combat loads; it's not just a PT issue, their bodies are literally more fragile, so where a man might roll or sprain an ankle while moving with 60+ lbs of gear, a woman has a much higher chance of breaking an ankle.
@@uummmnocoolnames I wonder how many of these women suffer long term back injuries for similar reasons.
Bro, are you saying you didn't like having to split the female's kit among two or three guys when she fell out in the field? What are you gay?
Lets be real, women are there for the mens morale 😂
I remember saying when BFV got revealed that people want an authentic WWII experience, not necessarily a 100% realistic one. The marketing that DICE was pushing pretty much flew in the face of authenticity
I can only suspend my disbelief for so long
@AdministrativeResults What're the odds!? For weeks, I've been obsessed with early concept art for BFV, made by old concept artists/art design guys who left (or got fired from) the studio around that time (including a LOT of other old DICE vets), and it looked like BF1 set in WW2; superbly badass *accurate* splinter camo smocks for German recon class, accurate SS uniforms just no bolts or windmill symbol, badass BoB esque paratrooper skins including an Indian Apache makeup/mohawk player paratrooper, you got art for Army Rangers scaling the cliffs at Point Du Hoc with grappling hooks, German Falschirmjäger lush red forests somewhere in Eastern Europe, pilot and tanker class concepts looked SICK, it's such a shame.
Could've literally been one of the greatest FPS' of all time and possibly the best WW2/historical shooter ever.
@@AdministrativeResultsSeems like a lot of media will jump on bandwagons of other popular media. After Iron Man and the success of Marvel, the snarky superhero was everywhere. John Wick, you have super tacticool long fights (still awesome). I think Battlefield 5 was trying to put a little Fortnite, hot in the news, in the game. Quirky shit, purple hair, cybernetic arm, etc.

I was wishing for Sino-Japanese War to be added at least, AKA where WW2 really started. There are very few games about this part of WW2. In addition, I wish they added wars that happen alongside WW2, like the Winter War, Soviet-Japan border conflicts like Khalkin Gol and Lake Khasan, and Ecuador-Peru War.

I personally would loved to have seen a battlefield game set in the Korean War. There’s a lot of cool weapons and vehicles that barely missed WW2 but saw use in the early Cold War era.
I want to see the Korean War too, but it has to be done well. Btw, a channel here on UA-cam, World War Two, is going to be starting a channel about the history of the Korean War! Should be good
I want a pirate game that is good
I’m surprised no one has done a Korean War setting. Battlefield 1 was a hit for WW1.
i honestly thought they were going to do Korea when this was announced and was super stoked. Especially since Bad company 2 Vietnam and the OG Vietnam games went so hard, and the idea of blasting that happy 1950s music on a tank just felt like so much fun. A few others theorized it would be too from some BF1 easter eggs hinting the release. Imagine my disappointment when the trailer for V got released. I pretty much just booted up an empty server in BC2 Vietnam afterward and shot bamboo to sulk XD
@jcs8568 only Korean war games I've scene are either mods or strategy games which are dope but a first person shooter during the Korean War would be a hit
One thing I haven't seen someone say, and this is my opinion on the subject, is that I feel that ignoring the contributions of the women who did actually fight in favor making something up is even more disrespectful. Basically it says "sorry but I don't think your actual effort, and sacrifice is good enough for my daughter so I'm just gonna go make some shit up." It's especially a let down to me because there were so many historic tid-bits that I learned from BF1 that not only kept me engaged with the game but also led me down many youtube binges about WWI stuff. All which would culminate in visiting the National WWI Memorial in Kansas City, MO. last year. That and Sabaton having back to back WWI albums helped fuel my interest.
I think he made that point that they should have included women in the roles that they actually were in during WW2 and recognized the importance of those roles. Front line fighting roles are not necessarily the most important roles. Without women in the roles they took, the outcome of the war could have been much different. To diminish the importance of those roles is to diminish the people who served in them.
I will agree that narratives like the bullshit they fabricated for the Norwegian Heavy Water sabotage, since all it does is ignore the actual impact women had. The saddest part was the developers tried to backtrack and claim the game was set in a 'fictional' version of WWII. Such a concept isn't bad, it's how other WWII fictional media is able to exist like Saving Private Ryan, but the difference is other fictions were advertised to at least be authentic experiences. They could have easily played into this fictional alternate reality much more and been fine. An audience adequately prepared to see stuff like female soldiers in a conflict that was set during the early 20th century would be able to suspend their disbelief for it.
WWII is largely attributed as being a 'death war' where many nations fought to the last and even continued to resist. AR wasn't totally correct when he said that it was only the USSR that put women in combat roles, but the other nations like Germany that did were also nations that were basically pushed to the brink. A alternate WWII where the situation is so desperate that women get put on the frontlines just to fill combat exhausted combat units would be perfectly palpable had that been the intention. It wasn't, though, with the inclusion just being to show some story of a mother and her daughter having issues and resolving them while fighting Nazis.
Getting pigeonholed into doing administrative work and critical care nursing isn’t the same thing as Fighting.
@@FlakeTillmanHe mentioned the ones who were involved such as the Soviet snipers. resistance fighters, and in espionage. One he didn't mention was the Soviet Air Force 588 sqdrn, which was all female. These could have served as fun foundations for their own missions but the devs decided to do the lazy thing, and re-write known instances instead. IIRC the top Soviet sniper was actually a woman, and since east front sniper missions are a given for a WWII game, then I would have loved playing missions based on her experience than another re-hash of Stalingrad. Hell why not some resistance missions set in occupied countries?
BF1 showed that the team could actually put some work into digging through history to shine a light on things people might have never heard of, and use them to build a fun, sort of historic fiction. BFV was more like a bad fan-fic from tumblr.
@@airplanenut89 Don't forget the 1077th Anti-Aircraft Regiment that held the line in the Stalingrad Military district, keeping the Nazis from crossing the Volga river. They were made up of Soviet volunteer women who had just completed their highschool level educations. Nazis were even shocked that such a unit put up a ferocious fight. So even if a developer didn't want to go the Soviet Sniper route, that'd give an option for the player seeing some of the most brutal fighting of the war from a woman's perspective.
The thing i appreciate the most about BF5 is the British-German part of the war. Many games and media especially nowadays just ignore it for a German-American, German-USSR and Japanese -American. Britain was in the war from the start and have many battles that get ignored
I really appreciate the talk about ESG. Not enough people are aware of it's existence. There are also more related things like DEI, Bridge, and Sweet Baby that are just as, if not more nefarious than ESG. some of them straight up talk about indoctrinating the masses into thinking a certain way, and they're very open about it. It's honestly kind of terrifying when you look into it.
ESG is why we have 40 year old white veteran pilots being fired so shaniqua can fly us into the ground (literally)
Ain't it crazy how people hate China's credit rating for people but pay no mind to ESG scores?
Definitely

Battlefield Bad Company 2 is one of the many factors as to why I bought a Scar 16s
still the best BF imo. the fact brainlets would rather run around doing nothing on giant conquest maps VS nailbiting objective based Rush mode is crazy to me. luckily the FInals feels a lot like rush now with the cashout/steal mechanic, since i think it has some of the same devs
BC2 totally influenced an entire generation of gun purchases
BC2 is the GOAT
Same way BF3 was a huge reason I bought a Benelli M4.
@@johnsmith-fk7fwby "nail-biting," you must mean "chaotic to the point of being unplayble at times with dozens of players constantly spamming explosives at the objective."
You don't "run around in giant maps" (well, you do in some of them) in conquest. You fight 20-minute long gunfights in chokepoints and strategic objectives. At least in some maps, anyway.
1942, Vietnam and BF2 reign supreme
BC2
Oh yeah, I forgot about BF Vietnam. I enjoyed that one and BF1942 (with desert combat too). I never really got back into BF until BF5. Although, I mostly only played the Pacific mulitplayer, though.
Easiest "fix" to women in BFV;
Add the Soviet Union.
Add the Soviet Night Witches Po-2 as their light bomber with female pilots and Female medic class, and maybe one for the Tank class and boom, historically accurate, AND women are in the game too, so both sides get what they want,
But that would make sense so of course Dice wouldn't dare think of it.
I agree.
Also remove online only requirements, remove microtransactions, etc.
or you can also add the partisan woman wearing citizen clothing for the allied.....
Even they were exceptions though. EXCEPTIONS DONT NEED REPRESENTATION. Just because muh couple of women fought for this one niche group doesn't mean they need to make an appearance. It flies in the face of reality
@landry3341 Bro, it's called compromise. Try it sometime. Your life will improve :)
@@lokikinch TBH as a woman, I do not want this compromise of wokeness. I'd rather have no women in a game than to have unrealistic woke women in a game. The same goes for forcing "latinx" into a game, as an indigenous mexicana... I do NOT want it! I'm tired of woke pandering, and I'm also tired of online-only bullshit and P2W/Gambling monetization.
this was revealed right as i was in my last quarter of game dev college in seattle. it started getting bad in 2016 there, but we even had teachers trying to gaslight us about this game, saying "the only reason people don't like it is cause they're sexist"
Yeahhhhh, that sounds about right for a collage professor 😂
Because some people were mad that women were in the game
@@KK20191Obnoxious every WW2 game now is about some female resistance fighter super corny and over done to the point that I want a game about a die hard Nazi masculine man who exposes the atrocities of the Allies
Look up Devils Brigade if you think Allies did nothing wrong
@@KK20191 nope... thats just not what happened... and you were either gas lit by these same people or are willingly perpetuating this narrative. people were mad that a UE amputee (who would not be eligible for front line duty AND who just so happened to be a woman) was being depicted as a 1 man army and being in a role that women were not typically part of in ww2, they were annoyed that a British solider who would have been fighting entirely in Europe had a imperial Japanese officers saber. People were already sort of disappointed in the inaccuracies of BF1 (too many automatics, re writing of events, over representation), and even though they weren't as glaring as Vs, these inaccuracies weren't pushed to the forefront before it was even released.
Most college professors probably voted for biden on prupose so that doesnt surprise me
If I remember correctly the Russian recon class on BF1 were female characters and that was a cool detail. The obviously had BF1 before BFV so it sucks to see them mess that up after getting it way more accurate.

This is such a deep and well explained video. A lot of things have become clearer for me, I really had my eyes opened to this ESG score thing and how it ties into the greater whole.
Not military, but I've heard from many friends in various branches that many young women they encounter DO NOT belong there.
I'll never forget all the little girls at boot in the female platoon back before it all became integrated, we didn't see them that much but typically when rucking or marching along somewhere they'd be doing the same off somewhere else, I swear to christ our rucksacks were bigger than a LOT of these girls' entire torsos were, and a lot of them were struggling big time-every time- with packs and M16's and God knows what else. Only good thing about it was getting to see the female DI's, a lot of them were pretty smoking hot especially with their hair all done up perfectly, asses poppin in the uniform lol, they weren't even remotely intimidating to say the least 😂 Most every male DI looked like they'd body them with one hand tied behind their back. Even despite the fact there's, a very very miniscule amount of, girls/women who could hack it at the *same exact* standards as men and actually operate in the theoretical scenarios our military trains and solely exists for, there will *always* and *forever* be a man who could outperform them, and why in gods name do want 18-24yo girls being sent in situations we don't even want our men in let alone them? The idea of 'sending our boys off to war' is bad enough, but 'sending our boys and girls off to war' is absolutely startling.
Can confirm, at least 2012-2020.
Prior service here. Some of my worst leaders and fellow airmen were females with the girl boss attitude. Made nonsensical decisions, and got mad when I really tired to do my job.
Meh. 2 of the best soldiers I worked with were women. Some of the worst I worked with were also women. I also worked with some great, and some shitty, men.
@Storming32 The military just isn't a college social experiment, it isn't some corporation with employees crunching numbers in cubicles before knocking off to go home at 4:30, there should be zero compromise here. For hundreds of years it has been universally understood with virtually everybody, the military is a man's world, it sure as hell isn't some privilege either lol, just like it isn't 'privilege' that 99% of garbage "workers" are men and same goes for just about any physically grueling-shitty-work.
Admittedly there's some MOS' women could be perfectly fine in, "Water purification specialist," nurses, doctors, logistics, but anything involving combat-on the ground/sea/or air-and leadership, should be an inherent no-go.
RisingStorm 2 Vietnam fixed the problem of what weapons were used when, at least in the campaign by only having early war weapons available and as the war/game went on you would see the m14 get replaced with the m16 and the sks turn into akms. I still believe that BFBC2 is the best BF Dice/EA has ever made
Agree with you on BC2 :D Played the crap out of that with my friends.
Always am like 5 years behind on games, but got BFBC2 for Xbox 360 in 2019 and it is still my favorite battlefield game by far
Shit. I wish I didn't read this. Guess I'm redownloading RS2.
And the vietnam DLC was also the best and most fun vietnam in gaming history. Good times when wokeness didn't exist. Everything from uniforms to weapons was authentic and immersive.

@@Birch12430no, social credit scores are a new thing. Being rejected by your community in the past is one thing, having a score system that follows you wherever you go is a completely different animal.
ESG isn't for investors to feel better about their investment, it's to exclude companies from taking loans if they don't meet the ESG score that meets the over-arching social narrative of undermining anything that can resist the G-sphere banking cartels, or feed momentum to pulling back against those who pull the puppeteer's strings.

It’s true
I’ve been enjoying the WW1 series games. Verdun, tannenburg, and especially Isonzo, you can tell they respect history greatly and know how to balance fun and realism. It’s not exactly a battlefield experience but running through the alps with a carcano or a Bodeo revolver is a lot of fun.
I like these games, but I think they do struggle to balance fun and accuracy sometimes. I think for the most part, people (myself included) prefer BF1 because it managed to balance respecting the history with having fun arcade shooter gameplay.
@@ExtantPerson Respect history? BF1 was utter shit in every metric except for graphics. I can only assume you were either young or ignorant of history to enjoy that. Games like Red Orchestra and Rising Storm struck a really good balance between realism and casual fun.
@@fridrekr7510 Not true, at all. BF1 took plenty of creative liberties, but none that disrespected the war or those who fought in it like BFV did. At the very start of the game, it explicitly pays its respects to those who died and tells the player of the harsh reality of a soldier fighting. The end credits do this, too. The codex’s entire existence is to educate players on the actual history, and even points out where BF1 took some liberties (many of which were necessary to maintain fun gameplay). BF1 didn’t disrespect WW1 veterans or paint the war as some sort of silly fun time. BFV did. Don’t mix them up

Just a thought - if they had marketed it as “based on real events”, in the style of so many movies these days that have only a vague passing resemblance to the original topic, then all of the historical inaccuracies(guns in the wrong place, women in combat roles) would have been fine, imo
BFV had so much potential but I learned to love it over time. I really liked the uniforms and camos. Also in campaign there is weird interesting thing going on with the Wehrmacht troop uniforms. Seemingly showing rare uniforms/patterns that aren’t accessible in multiplayer. Even when you play on the allied side when exiting the plane you see other npcs rocking rare uniform patterns
To add to the Soviet female snipers, a great addition to a battlefield game would have been the Night Witches. They flew antiquated crop dusters on bombing missions. They would turn off their engines and glide in so that the only sound they made on approach was the rustling of their canvas wings. The Germans compared this sound to a witch's cloak rustling as she's flying along on her broom, giving them their name. Super dangerous missions, completely dilapidated equipment, insanely brave women, perfect obscure vehicle mission for a WWII battlefield game. Documented personally and perfectly in "A Dance With Death" by Anne Noggle, a US WWII woman pilot. Also, how about the Soviet women drafted into homeland defense? My great grandmother was a "zenitchitsya, " or member of an AA gun team in her local guard. From the stories I was told when i was little, great-gran put in some serious work. Imagine that mission.

@@barbarossa7624nice, I used to admin the 24/7 Locker hardcore server, those were the days
People still play BF3?
My batt. was one of the last in the army to make the switch from all male. We had 6 females assigned to our supply company on the lead up to deployment. 4 of them came down with cases of unplanned pregnancy right before we left. It's hard being a lady warrior. Pregnancy can strike anywhere, anytime.
Women shouldn’t be in combat roles

This one game I played, I was a AT GI storming Iwo Jima. Jumped out of a trench on the beach and knocked out 2 enemy tanks simultaneously. Truly felt like a small but awesome battlefield moment. Could’ve been such a great game😔.
Love this format, hope you do more videos like it in the future!
I used to love COD,Battlefield Star Wars Battlefront. Was playing them right up until my son died. Playing Battlefront right up until I has to bring him home and the next morning, he was gone. I haven't had the heart to pic up a controller since 😢😢😢
I'm sorry, my dude that's horrible
@@TheDarksideFNothingThaks, I appreciate it.
@@rebelscumspeedshop I'm so sorry for your loss brother, I pray you pull through. Your son is watching and smiling to you from heaven. He'll always be there as one of your Garding Angels. Stay strong for him.
I'm really glad you made this video. You're pulling in a lot of material from things I read and listen to, and I think it would serve people well to understand things like ESG, the WEF, and the self-immolation of our entertainment industry.
Don' t forget about the self immolation of the American society
Admins channel has grown large enough he can say 80% of anything he wants. This is good. Also like the different types of content you put out aside from shooting.
I remember Dice during the launch period said that the live service aspect was going to progress each season like how the war progressed during the time. So the initial idea was to do a five year roadmap from 1939 to 1945 with each faction and maps being introduced like how war actually did and the endgame was the battle of Berlin. I'm disappointed we never saw that roadmap fulfilled.
I listen to a guy who says the same thing you have outlined. The quote he likes is "it became more profitable to check esg boxes than to make games for our audience"
An outstanding example of this was Tiny Tina's Wonderlands.
Funny how it was also the very first Borderlands game with a Teen rating instead of Mature Audience.
@@ShrockWPS Imagine even knowing what that game is about lmfao, the name alone says garbage
@@r0br33r
It was part of an entire franchise called Borderlands that has been releasing games since 2009.
I've been playing them since probably 2011, they were great games until Tiny Tina.
The title of that game fits into the story and a specific character.
They just decided to go full wokie and will never be getting my money again.
Context matters, not just a title.
I feel like most games I’ve played in the last 5 years don’t feel finished 😭
Because they aren't. Game studios keep dropping beta or even alpha games and say "Well we can fix it over time, just give us your money".
Suits have figured out that people will buy the game regardless and it’s another reason preorders are a huge problem. Not to mention the people funding these companies and their agendas.
You should play Enlisted. Enlisted is a WW2 squad based, (sort of) tactical shooter with tanks, infantry, and even aircraft. (Basicly battle field five but a lot more realistic) (and no wamon)
Fun fact, that king tiger in picture, no 232. Is the last one running. It's in the Musee des Blindee in Saumur France
1:30 RIP Lan parties
A few months before they abandoned BFV it was showing so much promise, iwo jima was a fantastic map, and the guns and balance felt great. Then Dice with all their incompetence decided to mess with the TTK again, which already went poorly last time they did it to attract casuals before a busy sale season, then abandoned the game with that TTK in place. Also I really liked the fortification/building system, and I'm sad that its probably never going to come back because of how badly Dice bungled the game.
Bro... This video hit so hard for me, all that is needed is you smoking a Fum stick and be surrounded by a cloud of aromatic mystery. This gives me vibes that what a boomer fireside chat would be like but if it got the modern update!
this video came across my feed! I was a blast watchin in...so funny! great job!
This is a top tier rant the people in your life should appreciate you more.
Bad Company 2 and 1943 were my first battlefield games, still my favorites, RIP the multiplayer servers, I still played on them. My dream gun all my life has been an XM8, hope one day I can get one of those TommyBuilt XM8 conversions.
Very good point. They could have saved this game with better game modes, having different levels of realism and historical accuracy.
Or if that was too complicated, they could have just made it more like difficulty levels. The more realistic and historically accurate, the higher the difficulty. This would emphasize that the less historically accurate levels were more just for fun (ex. rare guns with optics, female characters, and health regeneration, etc).
Policing in my country has become a nightmare because of DEI. Our police force has virtually no standards anymore. To become a police officer, you had to be at least 170 cm tall, which was already a joke, and now even this low requirement has been abolished. Now we have policewomen with a physique like a hobbit. They look like children who have been dressed in a uniform and handed a Glock. If you call the police in my country, chances are you'll have to protect them.
ESG = Carbon Credit = Social Credit =$$$$ thus follow the $$$
Well duh they're a corporation....... women have been in the military and in WW2
ESG = Extremely Shit Games
The thing I hated the most about bf5 was the lack of eastern front maps like Stalingrad, Kursk and Leningrad because this was the real decider of the war and the storymode felt very lackluster compared to BF1
11:09 as a fan of WW2 history, I actually hate that, particularly with the uniforms, because the vast majority of them aren’t even close to WW2 uniforms. Gas masks, trench coats, undershirts… heck, the Americans don’t even have a decent European theatre uniform, with the closest being a mix of GI and Yankee, both of which have the wrong colors for the torso.
I find myself going back to it every now and again. I love the pacific theater so thats what im playing if i get back on
It was the best thing that happened to that game
My oldest is 6 and youngest is 2. You'll get more time as they get older homie. Congrats
admin bringing up ESG scores is not something i was expecting to see on the main channel but its a welcome surprise
I like this type of video. I bet a bunch of us would watch you livestream BF or COD. Anything but Fortnite or apex and games like that. The more realistic looking ones with arcade gameplay with realistic equipment, are the best. I wish something new would take over and reunite the diverse communities of online FPS gaming.
Admin it’s high time you finish the German army trifecta and dawn on the fallschirmjager larp and do a FG-42 review
I just wish we could go back to BF4s peak after the fixed most of the launch bugs, probably my favorite game ever
Fantastic video, very refreshing. Thanks Admin.
Totally with you on how they trivialize the feats and hardships these real men that fought, sacrificed, and died for their countries, not that women haven't had a role in warfare, but they should be portrayed in the roles they were actually in, like the women snipers of the Soviets or female spies, as well as many other roles throughout history, portraying them differently takes the credit away from the actual achievements of these real women, so ultimately does a disservice to both men and women who served their countries!
Admin. Check out rising storm 2 vietnam. Game is a whole vibe and a half. Its also super addictive and a mix of realism with some arcade elements. Its also the only video game in a while to get shotguns correct.
Sadly it's pretty much a dead game.
@Ungood-jl5ep the prgaming servers are decent and always have a good amount of players.
I always see it pop up on sale, but never pull the trigger on it. Seems so late in it's life cycle that meta is established and a new player would be crushed.
@Albus_Rex now you'll be good. It's a great game, and there's a good number of players.
@@Albus_Rexnah it's good i bought it in 2020 and it's pretty easy to get hand on it like having good game with descent kill
Man it took me a full 10 seconds to figure out what I was looking at between the thumbnail and channel, kept thinking it was some new channel I haven't seen before. Really like the idea of delving into more non-gun or tangentially gun-related topics once in awhile.
Good video matey! Good to see some depth from my favorite gun channel :))
The minute I saw the reveal trailer with the robo arm lady my heart sank. I really thought we were going to get another amazing game like BF1 but kn WWII. I'm still mad about it.
I am a life long Battlefield fan. I have played it since OG 1942 on PC. I 100% agree with you. Also I want a modern BF 2142. I miss going around crushing stuff with battlewalkers. And BF4 final stand absolutely trashed the hover tank even though BF4 has the most well refined multiplayer IMO.
Help... My first buy for PS5... Was about to order BF5 last night.... What's the 1 or 2 best... New gamer and need a spare time FPS in my life.. with some awesome WW2/WW1/modern vibes and weapons.
@@ThePatriotParadox Enlisted's a free-to-play WWII game that's pretty decent. Can be kind of grindy (like any free to play game) but it's not really pay to win. Just pay to progress quicker.
It would be really fun to see a group of guntubers play one of the more realistic teamwork shooters like Squad or Arma. I bet Karmakut or Moidawg would be happy to organize an event.
Matt from Demo Ranch's brother plays a lot of those types of games. His name is OperatorDrewski. He occasionally plays with people like Donut Operator, EliDoubeTap, and more.
@@oblivionsa7973oh yeah, i thought it was a joke when i discovered it, but it's true lol, it would be awesome to see a guntuber collab like that
I love how informative the end of the video is!
Never knew about esg scores. Thank you for the information and what a good video!
ESG, DEI, WEF are definitely all good things to be educated in nowadays. All the crazy bullshit will make more sense all of a sudden
Speaking of the eastern front, I bought Dan Carlin's hard-core history series on the Osrfront the last time you mentioned it and it was fucking fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone interested.
Pretty much the entire Hardcore History series is gold. His WW1 series might be my favorite. Ghosts of the Ostfront is right up there though for sure!
Very different way of telling the events. Makes it more impactful and grounded in reality rather than some abstracted thing that might as well have been a movie or a book.
What killed this game for me was the over abundace of plane sweats who sit in the spawn menu waiting for a plane spawn while being level 500, and having max level planes, never missing a bullet, rocket, or bomb going 150+ - 1 on the scoreboard. Whether they're on my team, or the enemy team they're equally annoying.
Then when they get bored they do the same thing on bf4+1
@@r0br33rI’m your man. I mainly play BF1 these days but I make it my mission to destroy enemy vehicles, especially planes. I’m good at it too.
If it flies, it dies. 😎
For me it was the Asian Pansexual Girl jumping from a German C-47 in the raid of Narvik.
@@ryand.3858 I was the same in BF4. Its funny how all the chopper camping badmins actually kick you from servers for using AA efficiently.
@@torttuli I definitely remember those days. It always blows my mind when an opponent will be wrecking my team in a vehicle and they all just ignore him. When you take it upon yourself to take them out (often repeatedly) they kick you. Overall I loved BF3/4 though.
*Operation metro flashbacks* 😂
Preach brother!!!! Thank you for putting this out there, so many have not a clue!
24:43 Reacher is an excellent show. I’m watching the S1 finale tonight for the second time, as I haven’t watched season two yet 🤌 very well written show.
Quick heads-up, season 2 is good but not as good as season 1. They kinda overextended themselves with the large extended cast, and the finale was a bit anticlimactic imo. Still good tv tho.
@@flaneur1917 Damn, I believe that. They did a pretty stellar job with season one all around, so it’s hard to top that. I like the way the plot is starting though, but that’s kind of a bummer that the finale is a letdown. Thanks for the heads up
Season 2 has some really janky CGI that's rather jarring to see in this day and age.
Is Amazon the only way to watch it?
I've seen clips and it looks great, we dropped Amazon probably 3 years ago now though
You liked it? It felt extremely cringe, inaccurate, bad portrayals, shitty stereotypes and tropes done poorly. The scene where Jack puts on camo face paint and clothing before facing off against the bad guys in the villa was damn near vomit inducing. Show COULD have been interesting but was just very poorly executed.
Appreciated getting the "Admin 2 cents" on that as I'm a Battlefield O.G. on the P.C. but haven't played much in recent years other than playing the rather good multiplayer in BF1.
1942, Desert Combat, Vietnam, BF2, BF1, enjoyed them especially the LANs and multiplayer. Yessir, oh boy oh boy. ⚔
Forgotten hope
This video has everything, video games, politics, dark humor, conservatism... Thanks for this time admin, keep shooting n rocking.
Cheers from Colombia... Not Columbia.
If you want to experience an OG eastern front game, Red Orchestra 2 Heroes of Stalingrad would be a perfect game to make a video of. That's the first game I knew of that started with the nickname "PTSD simulator."
Admin with all his military stuff then the random star wars helmet on the shelf
Man needs to try that Galactic Contention mod for Squad.
It is military though. He got it on the forest moon of Endor.
Your face in the thumbnail summed up my feelings of the game.
I really hope you make more content like this in the future. Great watch.
I was in to Rising Storm 2 for a while. Really good Vietnam era game. Don't have much time for online games now that I have the little one so it's mostly an hour or 2 of single-player games a night. If that.
Love the format man. Im an all out nerd for games could hear ya talk about it all day
"Don't like it, don't buy it."
This is the kind of "culture war" content we need more of imo. Media consumption is greater than ever and talking about ESG and DEI is important to help the next gwn understand why things are the way they are
Nailed it! I'm actually getting back into BFV the last few weeks but missing out on the Eastern Front was a stupid idea..... Would have been nice if they would have planned out their "Tides of War" seasons to actually progress through the war and include those later battles/theatres as advertised but whatever.
His face fits the loading screen oddly well
