BattleBit captured the spirit of the older Battlefield games better than 2042 ever could. I had the same exhilarating adrenaline highs playing BattleBit as when I played Battlefield 3. There’s nothing like putting a bunch of C4 onto a car, throwing it at a tank, and blowing it up… and that was an everyday occurrence in previous titles.

In the communities I’ve seen, people wail in despair over the update that never was and desperately (satirically?) try to convince each other that the update will one day come. It’s funny to see as an outsider, but it hurts as someone who used to love the game.
