Battlefield games have a launch cycle of every 2 years. Last was in 2018, so a new game is expected this year. So no, there is no point in buying BF1.

I was able to shoot bullets trew a door in a 15y old game like America's Army but in 2020 COD is still using a crappy basic engine that doesn't allow destruction or decent physics at all. No thank you. I want some realism in my games.

Battlefield games have a launch cycle of every 2 years. Last was in 2018, so a new game is expected this year. So no, there is no point in buying BF1.

What does a launch cycle have to do with anything?? People are still playing Battlefield 4. Newer isn't always better. BFV has proven that.

A multiplayer game without maintenance and supervision from the developer is usually full of cheaters.

EA and DICE too busy milking users with loot boxes, DLCs and "new games" every 2 years.

I've seen videos of aimbotters on BFV just a week after release. No anti-cheat it appears.

The entire franchise went to shit and doesn't worth a dime.

I don't think you understand anything about COD MW at all. The night time shoot house mission in the SP is about as realistic as it gets, you can shoot through doors, and enemies die with a bullet or two.

You're free to give EA money for what's basically a half-baked WW1 game from EA as others pointed out, or download Warzone for free and actually try it.

Considering interior doors (and walls) are hollow and nothing but some drywall or cardboard, it is pretty realistic. Most exterior doors aren't that solid either.

I personally like the SP, the MP not so much.

But in COD you can't destroy wooden doors in de MP. I just saw it the other day in a youtube video.

Predatory DRM, predatory pricing schemes, releasing games that have game breaking bugs and glitches, VERY poor treatment of customers & forum users...
And that's just my short list...

I guess that I have only so few games (40 on Origin) that I've just missed all the major problems. :D
