The Good: The new Titan mode is a wild and intense departure from Battlefield's traditional conquest mode; a vast unlock system rewards long-term play, and your character becomes more powerful over time; the trademark battlefield formula of infantry and vehicle combat remains strong, even as it's getting a bit too familiar; an interesting new setting for what's traditionally been a historically themed series.

The Bad: Only two new factions, and no more North Africans; the graphics engine is showing its age, and the load times remain as long as ever.


I dont agree with the bad since mine loads 10x faster than bf2.

Of course it loads faster, we are only using one map so its basically already downloaded.

The first time I join a game it takes a while to load, then after that just a few seconds.

it's more akin to what Battlefield: Vietnam was to Battlefield 1942.

is that a good or a bad thing, lol.

Though I wouldnt say load times are a negative for BF2 either, doesnt take too long considering the immense map it has to load.

The maps are not that immense. the geometry is hardly complex for the majority of it, and what is complex are seperate objects that are simply placed on the map.
