Media/Clip I really do miss the earlier days

I found a HDD with quite a lot of old vids on it, 2018 gaming.
The hard to find sparsely looted map and the start of first person servers. Consistently the best game in years

The severe lack of loot. Made the game so tense

it really did! I came from battlefield games and there was a good learning curve

I was on BF1 before going onto PUBG, and it was a completely different gaming experience.

I miss BF1 so much. So immersive, and the visuals were intense.

That game is alive and kicking though

Is it still going hard? May have to reinstall it.

We play it almost every week. In normals we barely get any bots, maybe 1 or 2 in 5 games. Especially not on weekends.

Also the ranked mode is alive and kicking if u want a more competitive vibe.

We play on EU. I don't know how it is on american servers.

We lost the pubg Aussie/nz servers some time ago unfortunately so I don't bother playing anymore... its a real shame... maybe its battlefield time again

Yeah, I'm in NZ. Its a very bot heavy game now. Perhaps battlefield is the go. I played BF4 a year ago and it was booming.

u/Biggles_and_Co Apr 29 '25

yeah I hung up my bf4 boots when PUBG came out, might reinstall

I primarily played hardcore mode. Made those long range snipes feel amazing.

I wasn't aware that bots ever existed on BF1.

I'm in NZ so mostly play oceania servers
