- Battlefield 2 lives on in my memory as the defining multiplayer FPS of my lifetime, but what magic did this decade-old title have that the Battlefield series lost along the way?

no can do
I spent endless hours playing this in high school, it is easily the most intense love I've ever had for a video game. Glad to hear it mostly holds up. This video was perfect in the way it captured the feeling of playing this masterpiece.
and people still play online with BF2Hub.
Hello James, Love your content
Hey James what a great surprise for you to tell your story about battlefield 2
is it still played i feel very nostalgic watching these videos

oh god, strike at karkand. forever loved.
Sir You are in no way dumb! Btw you got BF5? Other fps's? 0range.
Use "BF2Hub" for play BF2 online after gamespy shutdown. Search it on google.
ENEMY SOLDIER SPOTTED!
Jordan Martinez I love strike at Karkand it’s my second favourite
Best map ever. On ISI server in highschool with s full squad of 6 friends. Hps leatherface. Hps pumpslugz. Hps smiley. Hps toymachine. Hps Airwalk. Hps Mandy.
One thing I really, really miss about BF2. Drawing a knife on somebody and having them draw their knife back on you. Then proceeding to dolphin dive all over the fucking place as you both tried to knife each others' ankles for that sweet instakill.
don't forget using the defib!! it was even more satisfying lol
@@hafizlemot So good.
An unwritten rule: two people alone don't shoot at each other at close range, they fight it out with knives. If a third appears, on either team, he waits and sees the outcome. Then he is next.
That was what made BF2 memorable: equals fighting equals
Battlefield 2 > Battlefield 4...
Everything is better the BF4
***** yes even call of duty ghost cause that actually works i think never played it
Halo 2>any shooter ever
Collin Gregorek No, CoD Ghosts is atrocious. And Battlefield 4 works...
Tetris > Everything :P
Forgot to mention the incessant spam in the radio, I can still hear the arab guy saying he spotted an enemy apc, an enemy tank, enemy movement, everything.
Lol I kinda miss that.
you can see it going on in the video lol
heh, I kinda miss it too, actually, I don't know if you guys are aware but Battlelog has fully functional BF2 servers, and it's 100% free, I recommend it if you wanna relive some of these experiences.
Fala, Marujo!
Bf1 Vale a pena? Ta caro pra caralho...
Eita! Você sou eu?!
Então, nem comprei, meu PC tá ficando obsoleto e não roda nem o 3 xD

Is Battlefield 2 As Good As You Remember?
Yes.
Yeah but not as good as bad company 2

Yes but Battlefield Vietnam also holds a special place in my heart
You can still play online. It's free. Just search for "bf2hub" on google.
Bf2 is the best game EA ever made. Bf5 is basically the same as bf2 but more advanced
If they gave BF2 updated visuals, and fixed the latency bugs, balanced the explosives. I'd buy it again.

Agreed
Definitely in the top 5 of mp games. Then you also have the mod PR... and still going.
Its free to play on origin, that's CRAZY BEST GAME EVER
How can i buy bf2
BF2 was definitely the pinnacle of all BF. Out of them all BF2 I had the most fun.
Spending an entire match hunkered down at the initial spawn as the commander...and watching as your team follows your commands and works as individually cohesive units to dominate...nothing will ever top that feeling.
@@deliriumcb5959 That and wake island was awesome. xD
@@deliriumcb5959 they still do that? I'm getting this game now then
@@unknown-agario4115 I had a great game last night as a squad leader. We had a fun combined arms push tank and infantry a few times. I use voice chat to issue orders. A few full 64 man servers active for sure.
Agree i played bf1942, vietnam. And bf2
i'm yet to find a game that will keep me glued to my screen for hours at a time......going to bed at 3am to get up for work at 6am only to do it all again....weekends would mean even longer hours on BF2......i wish they would make another BF2, exactly how the first one was just better graphics etc, that would make me happy....I wonder what BF5 will be like in October??????
me to, i couldn't keep off it
Well there you go, BF5 is another shitfest just like all of the other recent installments.
I want this too so badly too!!! I've never been involved more in a game than BF2. Being it commanding a game or just being anything from foot soldier to bringing death via Cobra gunships or fighter jets... It's just never been the same in any other game...
Download it its free2play now
@@kamilozog2162 where?
Best game i've played i my life
Man this looks a 1000x better than Battlefield 4
I had more fun playing BF2 this week for this video than I ever did with BF4.
Yeah. On-foot players could actually go toe-to-toe with vehicles and stand a chance AND you didn't have to do stupid shit to use the weapons that came with the expansions.
Why aren't the newer generation games good anymore?
***** Money?
***** That's the reason the newer games aren't as good? Who would of known
Proud that I played this game during its prime.
Right there with you man.
Me too. Last Battlefield I played was 3. Nothing will match the masterpiece that was BF2
I was playing in around 2010 but still it was one of the best game I played till i borrowed it to my friend and he lost the CD....
It's still available on the Revive Launcher!!! F2P too
For me, it's BF3, BF2, BFBC2, BF4, BF1, then BF2142 ( Not a fan )
I primarily miss the team mechanics behind BF2 as an objective preference. This isn't nostalgic. I noticed the difference in the immediate followups. We eventually got amazing audio and graphics, but I just didn't have as much fun.
And 2018 it STILL has an online player base!!!
What?!
dude. what? how? where?

@@angelG14 BF2Hub.
2019 and still kicking. I had a great squad last night, and we had a very successful/nostalgic combined arms push to the airfield on Wake Island. Also a great helicopter air cavalry squad on Mashtuur City. The voice chat still holds up and is essential for squad commanding. It takes a little bit to get the BF2Hub client program installed, but once you do there are at least three or four quite active 64 man servers.
One of my favorite things about BF2 was the sense of progression. When you received a promotion, a medal, a badge, or a ribbon, you damn well knew exactly what it was for and you could actually be proud of it. Today's "achievements" and "ranks" are all but completely disposable.
so true
Battlefield turned into Call of Duty...
Jar Bone true, we only need big maps not small sized maps like cod
Jar Bone battlefield 1 is awesome and totally not cod
BF 1 is just another bad company sequel. does not follow in the footsteps of 1942 or 2. FFS they couldnt even remember to do what they fixed in previous games like the barrel needing line of sight to the target for your rounds to hit them. nope u can now peak just over a barrier with your head and fire rounds into people right through that barrier.
Battlefield 2 made the Battlefield series.
Bf 1942 did
+WensyTheTerminator Nah, BF2 really got me hooked. 1942 was fun to play tho
No, 1942 did.
You can still play bf2 and bf2142 online. Just search for: bf 2 revive or bf 2 battlelog
TheBoobiesmith
what was really cool was how a single guy who sneackely stole a flag somewhere in the corner just before your entire side had nowhere to spawn , prolonging the entire battle or even chasing the entire course of the battle was really cool and i am very happy to say that i was a part of this game back in its prime
BF2 has better graphics than pubg
Manu Deadskinmask of course it was Forstbite Engine.
Frostbite? What have you been smoking, Frostbite didnt even exist back than
@@UniQue1992 xD
also better ping/register rates back then with crap internet then pubg has now with modern tech...
no
Also the two things that i like about this game:
1. It has an european faction in it. BF game since BC1 have acted like Europe does not even exist.
2. All 4 factions are realistic. They all speak their own languages, their uniforms are realistic and they use the weapons of their real life counterparts and other factions have no access to those weapons.
All 3 factions in BF4 using the same weapons is easily the worst thing about BF4.
Yes I remember the European Union(NATO) I remember playing BF 2 and they started giving out does expansions for free that was years ago great don't know if people still playing it now days
even the insurgent group in special forces is accurate
THEwolfmaster100 the EU and NATO are not the same thing, and besides, the EU is mostly economically centered
theEpicxY
They had EU as a faction because they couldn't put in every european country individually.
RevanBladeZ Then you truly need to re-evaluate thinking of video games if you think weapon usage is the worst part of bf4......
BF2 is what got me into PC gaming exclusively
Me too, played it on a mates gaming PC. Immediately started applying for jobs, got one, saved up, built a PC, quit the job and gamed and gamed. I was about 13. So worth it.
You can get it again at oldgamesdownload and use BF2Hub for online
Me too man
Same here. Turned 20, in 2005, and bought $2,500 worth of pc with my first ever credit card on new egg. Man, I'll never forget the first session until 6am! The best times!
@@hitokiribattousai6406 I wish DICE/EA would remaster that game and release it with the DLCs, update the netcode and bring the graphics up to today's standard, no loot crates or battle passes. They'll be basically printing money with that game.

BF2 is one of my all time favorite fps games. Sure it had it's ups and downs, but hey, no games are perfect.
Bf2 will forever have a place in my heart. If only more fps games could be as good as Bf2 was
+Games Cooky always 62% , bro, always 62%
+Games Cooky I used to love it. Each time a new game comes out I switch and play that and I always hate the changes at first but I'm really liking BF4. It plays and looks so much better. I miss some of the old maps though
SpacedTime I like Bf4 as well. Although it was a wreck on release, Dice has done a good job fixing the game with the patches.
It's an enjoyable game.
Bf2 is so nostalgic to me. I used to play it so often back in the days.
I love battlefield in general. Way better than the more faste pased games like call of duty
I agree.
I havent played in 9 months as my PC is in a different country but im getting it in Feb so I can play again. I cant wait
+Games Cooky
Project Reality.
And Squad are going to become even better.
BF2 was the most exciting launch game I ever experienced. So much was going on, had a fun and arcadey feel with tonnes of action and lots of variety.
BF2 was the best online multiplayer that has never been replicated.
Great memories of just stuffing around in game and screen capping then uploading. wish i could find the old clips!
This is the best Bf game like if you agree
bad company 2
dont get offended but bad company is joke when you compare it to bf2 :D
Bad Company 2 had great destruction and Rush mode was fantastic, but it was a consolized game through and through. Battlefield 2 and 2142 were both much better games in my opinion, and since they were designed with PC in mind, they shined in almost every single way.
Yup Battlefield 2 was a true team based groundwar game. After BF2142 the series turned into a consolized Call of Duty clone with Vehicles.
Bad company 2 is Call of Duty clone with vehicles fuck that pile of shit.
I remeber when bf3 came out, As a hardcore Battlefield fan i preorderd bf3 as soon as i could. I almost cried when i played it.. Battlefield 2142 was the last real battlefield game
+Typical Feminist Hypocrite Cannot agree more. 2142 was great even if it was just a reskinned 2 with extra gadgets. I used to criticize that game for being a cash grab but now I realize that it's exactly what I want the next bf game to be. BF2 was perfection despite the nade spam, dolphin diving and guns with their scopes not dialed in but that is exactly what I hope the next bf will be.
+DangerDavez Yeah it was very much a futuristic Bf2, although the style of movement and shooting was quite different and really fun. ended up falling in love with that game, Damn i miss it haha.
totaly agree with you. Bf2 still the best and I don't think that it change in the future.. unfortunatly :/
+Typical Feminist Hypocrite Yeah, in retrospect I feel the same although back the I didn´t like BF2142 for it´s setting and the fact that it was pretty much just a BF2 mod! I actually also liked BFBC2 for what I thought what it was...a spinoff. It took care of many of the problems of BF2/2142 though it was never a real BF and more designed around Infantry combat! To me personally that was OK since I never expected it to be a BF2 successor and was eagerly awaiting BF3 as the real successor of BF2 with the advancements of BFBC2 but larger maps, more vehicles and true BF gameplay!
Boy, was I disappointed when I finally got my copy of BF3! That epileptic browser game felt nothing like BF and I still passionately HATE it for ruining my favourite gaming franchise!
+B0nkers after bf2, bad company 2 was my favourite. it had so many things right. Great maps that didn't up in stale bottlenecks like alot of the popular infantry based maps on bf3-4
When EA was a great company.
RunwayIsAwesome They were already a scummy corporate business by this point. They had swallowed up some fantastic companies and either destroyed franchises or just started churning out shit for cash. They did, however, manage to still produce some good games as well.
More like "when EA was smart enough to let developers make games the right way".
So true mostly if you look at nowdays
Oh they were still shitty
C&C Generals and Tiberium wars and BF2...!!! Good times. Anybody who says games today are better is a liar, in particular EA games..
I remember my brother playing this game on his laptop and me giving the locations of the enemies behind his back. Those days are gone now.
SOAT 1 you had a good relation with your brother, if I try to help out my brother he would get pissed off.
@@floydy8359 he was tired of me sometimes too lol
This is one of those games that NEEDS a remaster. Since the servers are down; it seems like the opportune time to bring back those old memories again. While, yes, the dedicated and astoundingly large modding community have got the servers back up and running again; it's still a very complicated process to join a game. Not to mention that it's near impossible to find a copy of this game anywhere since it's no longer being sold on Steam or Origin. So, EA, if you want as much money as we all think you do, then this is the perfect chance to get some.
+So Many Poops If you want to play BF2, Go to battlelog . co and thats where the BF2 Revive project is, and you can download and play bf2 again. Even if you dont have a CD key, so its basicly free now! Anyone can play it now, thanks to The Blue Community Reviving it :D
+CraZySaVaUnT How is that possible?

One of the biggest reason old games seem so much better than new games is our expectation. When you were younger the games were not as finetuned so anything that hasn't been done before with instantly exciting. Games these days are getting less and less unique.
And less good in general .
I "lost" the summer of 2005 to this game. Barely went outside the whole summer. It was great
Battlefield 2 is the best Multiplayer Shooter ever. I dont know why DICE & EA sucks now. They should do BF2 with new graphik no extras no attachment shits unlockments etc. and everything is good! This can't be so hard
codebreaker1983 They only want make extra money with that unlockements. But that will ruin the game
codebreaker1983 I think the same
Yes I can relate. It was a lot of fun.
DICE and EA (mainly EA) suck now because their shareholders and executives are becoming exceedingly greedy. There again, I suppose you can also blame the customers that continue to buy into the franchise as they're the ones supporting the openly rapacious company that EA has become. It's certainly not the company it once was.
One thing I REALLY miss is only being able to use the guns that your faction has. It really makes you feel like you're playing for that country's side.
This game was so addictive I lost my job back in the day. Because of that it took me a few years to buy Elite Dangerous knowing I would be hooked.

Battlefield 2 is the best battlefield so far and also it was mind blowing in so many ways. It feels like i played the game a millenia ago but i still remember the fun and the thrill i had from it. Just seeing the logo makes me emotional. It reallly was the begining of a new era. Graphics might be old now but any other aspects would be still considered great if some unknown company had put it on the market now with new graphics.If you check the market there is still no competition for battlefield in the market. I don't mean as an FPS game but as a rival which does the same gameplay features. You can say arma but it is not a game that you can join a server and start the fight right away. It doesnt work that way. And its more of a simulation. There is the Squad but it is nothing like battlefield, it is still a simulation-ish. For example; PUBG has its rivals, h1z1, fortnite, ring of elysium etc... They all use almost the same formula. But no competition for the battlefield. I wish there were so this game genre would improve much more till now. Battlefield is still competing with itself. dont tell lme COD, its just a arcade shooter. I am not saying its bad, but it has nothing to do with battlefield. They just compete on who is gonna sell more first.
I suggest you have a look at "squad", of all the recent games it's the one that reminds me the most about BF2. I hope they'll add helicopters in the future.
World war 3, looks like it could be a pretty good.
Bf3 in my opinion is the best
@@T1NG0 bf3 was the closest we have gotten to BF2 since but it lacked quite a bit of the charm BF2 had

This My childhood memory Battlefield 2
the graphics on this are legit amazing for the time tbh
those graphics are still good
Alix graphics are still amazing and WAY better than Cod MWR graphics lol
I remember having to get a 6800GT just to be able to play it properly since my 6600GT was struggling.
Doom 3 had it beat in 2005.
I remember accidentally hitting the escape button returning you to the main menu could sometimes take more than 30 seconds lol.
I remember playing strike at karkand and only strike at karkand over and over again.
Karkand is the best. Too bad it didnt make it to battlefield 4. Wake island survived through BF1942, 2, and 3.
So Karkand should survive through 2, 3 and 4. Oman did
well because Wake Island is an absolutely amazing map. It is very tactical, contains everything from very short to very high range fights, all types of vehicles, and looks just stunning.
NRNS Strike at Karkand, I won'der if this server is still up.
gary dellabate haha yup same here
I was all for Stike at Karkand and operation Blue Pearl ALLL day long and yes, infantry only
I started playing battlefield 2 when I use to watch my dad play it and I got interested this was the game that basically started my love for FPS and video games time has flown so by.
Exactly the same, I remember how much faster I got better than him and it definitely made me be the fps player I am today.
I remember back in 2006-2008, me my brother and 4 other friends would go to a computer club (LAN Cafe) every saturday, when we were not at school. We always paid for 3 hours to use the PCs and at least 1 hour (sometimes 2) of those 3 we were playing BF2. I miss my childhood. DICE should definitely make a BF2 Remake for the 20th anniversary in 2025.
For me its 2142 I have the best memories of. That and 1942.
+TheBarser YES!
YES YES YES!!!!
+TheBarser Also Galactic Conquest star wars mod for 1942...
when that had 64 players, shit happened on that mod that makes Battlefront 1 2 and 3 look like the pieces of shit they always have been.
Battlefront was directly inspired by the GC mod, which is why they included a story mode titled "galactic conquest" where you took control of the star chart one node at a time. In an interview they said they felt like the GC team "accomplished more" because working for a bigtime company made Battlefront's design process a lot less creative and a lot more corporate.
Which is why battlefront 1 2 and ultimately 3 feel like pale imitations of "What could be..."
I remember that mod. I have some screenshots on my computer of me and my friend gaming it, and some funny bugs happening. :)
+TheBarser Indeed 2142.. oh boii.. the titans.. the Voss, Ganz, lambert and so much more :) oh yeah the walkers..
Thanks to Battlefield 2, the awesome mod Project Reality was spawned. Thanks to Project Reality, the game lives on in Squad. Those guys are doing a fantastic job. Anyone who wants the closest modern experience to BF2 should check out Squad.
AMEN! Squad is the game I've been waiting for for a very long time!!!
Squad is pretty good, some really tense moments, definitely recommend!
Amen, bought SQUAD and it rock my balls!
I think you guys would be better off playing Project Reality, as Squad is far less superior to PR in terms of features. However, I have high hopes that Squad's development will truly make it a PR 2.0
I'm good with Squad as of right now, PR was great for its time but for me I'm into the modernized version of PR...just can't do the old BF2 engine anymore.

NO.
+RocketReloadDonut why not
+that one guy It is EA, tons of micro-DLC. I just got the game today and the only bad thing about it are the graphics. The game is already perfect. Just get a mod that makes the graphics better.
+The United “UltraXGaming” Channel makes sense
EA didnt own the franchise when bf2 was made
Sucks how 2142 is 100% dead, and most BF2 servers are just Karkand 24/7 with 140 ping. I can't get enjoyment out of either because of these problems. However, when I found a populated 50 ping server ONE TIME, it was an absolute blast.
Last time I checked BF 2142 there was 3 servers who were 24/24 no ?
Yasser Dammak I played about 2 months ago so IDK. If they were 24/24, they must have had high ping for me.
yeah lol, me too I'm lucky If I find a server with a not perfect ping but is playable. Gameranger just included support for them so I might try the fluidity of the games there
Yasser Dammak I tried getting back into it a few months back. Hated the constant Detpak spamming due to the weird friendly fire coding that allows whoever threw an explosive invulnerability to said explosive.
There are no servers with friendly fire on ?
2008, living alone for the first time in a tiny apartment goig to school, spending most of mu free time playing battlefield 2, either alone or with my clan. being part of leagues, beating big name teams like SK gaming and Catchgamer. the intense moments. man, battlefield 2 was great.
Ahhh yes back when gaming wasn't full of hackers
And now on bf1 nobody speaks, medics run off without healing people. support players never give ammo, Team mates don't work together. It actually spoils the game
Well running as a medic is equally annoying when people just spam their skip revive button and I end up running back and forth and eventually dead
The Vegan MGTOW cause all the new kids just play it as cod. You can tell a long time bf'er pretty quickly. I've had dpad buttons where out from dropping so much ammo.
Thats the problem with automatic health regen and thats why it should be removed

BF Hardline was on sale on PSN the other day for $3.47. Long story short, I saved $3.47.
That game is terrible.
LOL! Harsh. Hardline was a decent shooter. Didn't need the Battlefield name on it, but it was a decent, fun shooter. Lots of what they tried in Hardline made it into BF1, people need to remember that
TickTak77 for real, it was definitely inferior to the normal BF series, but the multiplayer rocked.
OctoberHourglass one of the best games ever made
It was probably one of the least buggy and most polished Battlefield games to date. Granted, it probably shouldn't have even been a Battlefield game to begin with and Hardline should have become like a larger scale competitor to Siege from EA, but that doesn't make it not a great game. I think that it would have been far more popular if they'd done a cops/National Guard vs Cartels/terrorists setting than the pure cops and robbers that they went with. Fighting terrorists on the streets of LA is way more engaging than fighting a gang on the streets of LA because one of these things is a fresh experience and the other is the evening news.
Battlefield 2 is the best Battlefield title ever created. I'm sad they tried to cater to the Call of Duty fans with BF3 and onwards. Faster run and gun gameplay instead of tactical gameplay. I truly hope we one day get a Battlefield title as Battlefield 2 again.
The best of the best.
Thank you for making this. This is so well put, all of it. Spent years of my youth grinding this game and don't regret any of it. However, I have never forgotten the nades, clays and clays. That shit scarred me for life.

wafflepiepancake Haha, i always do that
IT'S FREE NOW PEOPLE! LET IT REVIVE!
Where can I download it?? I cant find it on Origin..
Google "BF2 Revive Project (BF2 Battlelog)". You can download and play the game for free. The game was taken by a group of devs and kept alive (and updated) ever since EA shut it down.
Thanks a lot! I'll check it out!
Thank you so so so so so so much!!!!!!!!
Or you could play project reality...
Awesome video! After gathering some things from my storage closet to list on ebay, I came across my Ideazon ZBoard Gaming Keyboard I used while playing BF2. Brought back so many awesome memories gaming with the KFD Squad. Finding my gaming keyboard brought me hear! 😁
Best FPS game I ever played. Spent so many hours on this. 32 v 32 was amazing
I remember when this came out it looked photo-realistic to me lawl
Same. So weird how things change.
There was a screenshot I will never forget of the guy prone to a bench firing his machine gun - I kept showing people that shot, "Check out how amazing this looks!" hehehe
well all of the titles had really good graphics for their time.
weemcast Care to share?
Imagine games in 20 or 50 years. Dude the real life will be second role
Exactly how i feel, well done!! :)

You made my Day :D
***** lmfao worst advertising ever
i sat for many many hours & late nights on BF2, when i hear the music to any of the maps it sends shivers down my spine......BF2, greatest game ever made & always will be
Literally just got off this game. Was playing in S1. Crazy this video came out 9 years ago and is STILL a throwback video
Long Live BF2
I miss Battlefield Vietnam, it doesn't work on Windows 10
*Cries away in a corner longing for 2004 to come back*
vietnam was my favorite. i liked 1942 and bf2 a lot but vietnam was so great. I loved the Mi-8 heli. 1 shotting huey noobs from halfway across the map with a well placed double rocket
Vietnam was great, but it was almost too realistic. I remember thinking how insane it would have been to actually be in the war because of how little I could see in the jungle levels. Oh, and the option to play music out of the vehicles that others could hear!? Fucking brilliant. I loved the VietCong loudspeaker messages on the city levels too..."GI! Your country has lied to you!"
Format that spying Shit and get back on 7.
It ain't me, man.
Razur not sure if you read this,if you still have it installed,right click on the icon that starts the game and press properties,go to compatibilty
And check the box that has compatibilty mode and set it for windows xp or vista.
Try it
It works for me
Personally, I think the jets in BF2 were better than the crap we've been giving since.
They were powerful, just like air power should be. You also had bombs to drop using your judgement and skill to work out angles etc, not just laser guided crap. Two player jets. Better dog fights. Larger maps to fly around on. The only imbalance was the J20 vs F35 which made Wake awful at times. You had to RELOAD by flying back over your airfield, and this is how you repaired too. Not re-spawning ammo and health crap.
Siiiiigh. I miss this game so much.
I agree. the 2 seated jets and the reload system was great
+TheH3dgie the 2 seated jet is it F-18 or F-16? I remembered I took the bomber role. It was one of greatest moments in video game I ever had. I never played BF4, but I also remembered gunner chopper also has 2 seat. The click guided missile on those chopper were fucking awesome.
Oh, and the moment when you promoted. It was awesome moment. All your hardwork, your death and kill count was paid. You rank up to.... Sergeant! From 1st Class Corporal. And you look your teammate are Major, Captain, even 3 Star general lol.
The f18 was the jet, so it must have been the F16. I know the MEC had one too.
+KoeSeer The 2 seater jets were the f-15 and the mig-29 fulcrum I think...
+MPDR200011 You're right about the F-15 for the US, but the two-seater for the MEC was the Su-30. The Mig-29 was the single seater for the MEC.
ha same for me, everytime i think back about gaming the first pops up in my head is battlefield 2 and how much fun it was. THIS was actually a real battlefield .. the community was complete different as the cod toxic kid community battlefield has today. and i always remember
Rainbow233 Just Google BF2hub, there is a good community of players on a stable server
I still remember plaing on the clans server and being a commander and with balanced sides. I utilised the Roman collapsing front strategy and turned an outright defeat into an absolute slaughter of a victory.
Along with many other fun memories but that battle taught me old tactics can still work.
Battlefield 2 is the best battlefield.
agree
yes
bad bad bad company ftw
RIDE_ THE_LIGHTNING 117 yeah bad company is definitely almost as good as battlefield 2
i don't know why people compare bad company to bf2
My college days. God, I love and miss this game. I miss the sound of drums when I’d achieve a new rank or medal. You also had to spend hours on a certain class or vehicle to unlock the next rank or weapon. I also bought the European expansion games. This is my favorite first person shooter of all time!
Yes! The rewards were so great, and really helped you mentally progress towards each medal. Not to mention, reaching a new rank was incredibly satisfying....it was grindy, but made you actually care about your account.
Yea it's amazing, I just started playing it again for the first time since 2010. The nostalgic thoughts are correct, it's better than any other bf game
@@seaninferno1 there are servers still up?? That's awesome! Are there a lot of people still playing or is it kind of empty?
@@ronin6327 still lots of players
I play battlefield 2 and make videos every week on it to the channel, it's the best FPS so far in my opinion, can anyone honestly disagree??
Battlefield 2 was my third battlefield game. The first was Battlefield heroes in middle school and the battlefield play4free beta. Once I got battlefield 2 it was over, I fell in love
I STILL consider 2142 to be superior. The way it turned something as crazy as mechs into realistic parts of a battle, and the titan mode, MAN the titan mode...whew. Best game mode ever.
It's incredibly sad that 2142 has died. I thought the community would stick around longer. Now there's hardly any servers up at all. Battlefield 2142 will always be my favorite battlefield game. I liked it even more than Battlefield 1942 during its time. 2142 gave us automated flying sentry bots, UAV bots, placeable shield cover, tactical cloak, placeable machine gun sentries, titan mode, drop pods, etc. 2142 was the most innovative game at its time and now the Battlefield franchise has deteriorated to the point where now they're calling a Cops vs Robbers a Battlefield game. That game doesn't even make any sense. "Hey, let's send in a military jet and deal millions dollars in property damage to catch some crooks robbing a bank!"
They should have made 2143. 2142 with frostbite 3 would have been magnificent,
John Kim there are barley any up, but this few servers are still constantly full
John Kim Well, they're definitely working on 2143, I just hope they do it justice...
How I know they're working on 2143:
Crates in some Battlefield 3 maps say "2143" on them. Battlefield 3 easter egg of a small futuristic UAV flying around. The last DLC pack for BF4 is called Final Stand. It includes maps called "Walker Factory" and "Titan" and features a "Multi Kill Vehicle" which is basically a drone with a damn minigun on it. Oh, and let's not forget the BJ-2 knife, which is the knife from BF2142.
Grim Games
They're not. DICE is busy working on Battlefront 3, which is why Visceral made the spin-off Hardline. They probably will make 2143 after Battlefront 3, but that means we have to wait, what? 3 more years?
John Kim Both BF3 and BF4 have felt rushed to me. If it needs to take 3 more years to get right I think we should just roll with it.
I remember being so amazed when I heard of BF1942 back in the day. My mind was still stuck on Medal of Honor and other first person shooters. To hear about vehicles, airplanes, and soldiers all engaging with one another on the same map made my brain bleed with excitement and confusion.
Cod copied medal of honer. That's why cod is similar to medal of honer as BF did they're own gameplay style.
Nils Jonsson What else did Infinity Ward make? I seem to remember that name so long ago.
Blaine Bugaski Well, Call Of Duty :P
Nils Jonsson Ahhhhh that would be it!
Blaine Bugaski when I heard bf4 could have 64 players I thought people were lying. I had only really played cod up until that point and I was so excited to drive around in a tank.
we need to go back...
Still waiting for a Battlefield 2 sequel.
uhhhh bf2142? bf3? bfbc?
@@swolzer FAILURES.
Me too. Dice let us all down with that POS BF3.
@@TheGunnCat okay boomer
@@ffraky001 ok what, sizzle lips? 💋💋💋😆
Battlefield 4 base map number: 10
Battlefield 2 base map number: 16
Interesting.
To be fair, more work has to go into BF4 maps.
How is it interesting? BF4 maps take a shitload more work because of destruction and more graphical fidelity.
Pengalor bf2 still waaay better bro
kellar J It's actually easier because the modern BF maps are much smaller and new map editing softwares are easier to use.
Pengalor scripted destruction only belongs in CoD singleplayer. Scripted events in BF3's and BF4's multiplayer are lame as hell.
To save you time watching this, Battlefield 2 is the best game ever, or at least best Battlefield.
High quality content I’m looking for links to get the game is where?
Yeah don't watch this because BF2 gameplay actually looks terribly dated, just take our blind overly-nostalgic statements as fact.
Damien MB
have you tried it its not that bad sure it not perfect but the gameplay is fine
Legendary Battlefield game. Have had more fun on that game than all of the other Battlefields combined.
True the moments
So many good memories! Honestly I still think it looks great even in 2018. I want to see BF 2 and BF 2142 get remastered!
I'm so glad that i was possible to play BF2 for such a long time. Great game. Today there is no some kind of "magic" in new BFs.
Teamplay, chating, action behind enemy lines...miss it a lot.
try Squad :)
@@gwalchafed or project reality (og squad)
Commander mode was also highly enjoyable,much better implemented than bf4 imo.A good commander could make your team win,it had a huge impact.
right click map.. 'enemy spotted' all day erry day
killing snipers with supply crates was always fun
enemy boat spotted
2018 anyone?
Para d0x yes I was playing 5 minutes ago on 24/7 nade at karkand ;|
Bf2 & Bf1942 for ever in love
I am 20 years old and this was the first game I played on the computer together with my 27 year old brother. It was so much fun and to see this makes me feel so nostalgic. Games nowdays can't compare to the fun I had playing this and I am actually sad how it went to an end somehow.
I still play BF2 to this day. One of the best FPS games!
do people still play it? are you from EU?
Offline. With bots :)
*****
oh that sucks, if people still played it i would install it right now
+PokeMePT
I'm playing with bots too. I guess it possible to play online.
here: reddit[dot]com/r/battlefield_2/
I'm not sure there is too many people thoug...
people do play it still
battlelog.co/
its now hosted by revive network and its free to play.
A game that actually lets you care about your teammates? I like that.
RainbowRunner 10 And a game which build around it too. Todays Battlefield is an ego-narcissistic shooter.
I remember going to a LAN party at a friends house where we played BF2. The game had been out for a while and JUST so I could go to the LAN party, I bought BF2. I don't remember the gameplay that much as I didn't play it extensively, but I do remember having an Athlon X2. At the LAN party, I ran the server for Battlefield 2 on one core for all of us, and was able to play on the other core. It was freaking cool. Seeing this video, reminded me what a great game it was with all the weapons, vehicles, and whatnot. If I still had my game DVD's, I might break them out and play a bit.
Dude, this is crazy. I remember that map with the palm trees and the lighthouse sooo much playing rush and the team falling out of the helicopter back to back to get to the base. Sweet memories in these times!!
I got teardrops after that i had seeing this. DICE Pls. Be working on BC3!!! 1944 or Vietnam 2. But not a BF5!!!
+Negnav123 It might be about Japan
An IMDb page about the game (How weird)
This game is about a small town soldier who is in battle for japan. He must fight to get home to his family and friends. AH SHIT i just read more, apparently it follows Battlefield 4, welp. RIP THE DREAM
+Negnav123 Go try the now standalone Project Reality, its still being played allot and still so good and allot better than BF2 vanilla.
Fuck no, BF2 is the game that started the downward spiral. Dolphin divers, shit hit detection, pea shooter guns, revives, buggy ass engine with bodies rag dolling into orbit, the introduction of stat tracking meaning 99% of players started caring more about their K/D than just having fun trying to win. Remember getting slaughtered on Omaha Beach in BF1942 by a competent German team? I never had so much fun getting my ass kicked. Today's gamer would have a heart attack seeing his K/D nose dive to hell.
Battlefield 1942 and Vietnam are the best old Battlefield games. No stat tracking, all players focused on one goal: WINNING.
+NuclearHendrix Wish I could have a time machine. I was too young when 1942 came out so I've never played it and don't know almost anything about it. But it would be nice to get to play the game that started it all :)
My first was bfbc2. You probably didn't like it as much as I did, but for me it was the first multiplayer fps ever, and had so much fun with it. Top 5 game for me for sure. Guess that's the benefit of not having any expectations :/
Bf3 is okayish but not as good as bfbc2
+NuclearHendrix for the first time i wish i was older!
+SingleTurboSupra tried the BFBC2 Vietnam pack?
Voltpatch No. Back then my parents bought me my games, which meant I couldn't get every game I wanted
+SingleTurboSupra You can play BF1942 for free, it's on Origin. Gamespy support is down for the game so it doesn't show any servers on the list, but there is a workaround for it, just google "battlefield 1942 gamespy". There are still servers online, quite often full. Bf42 for life!
I spent thousands hours on this game. Modern games not even close to this masterpiece.
Most
This was my very first fps game and im soo happy that bf2 became my favorite game when i was a kid
