I have gathered as much from the vague reviews. But care to maybe give 2 minutes worth of detail?

Well to summarize:
  • Buggy on launch
  • Runs like ass
  • UI is pretty much a mess
  • Class system is kinda trash
  • Game direction has sort of changed from past Battlefield games (I believe most fans enjoyed the 'realism' aspect of the BF series, but I won't get too much into this)
  • Lead devs of past BF entries have also jumped ship, so it might explain the dip in quality

What do you need a 2 minute reason for? Even I as a non-shooter-fan can see the main focus of the genre has shifted to games like Fortnight.

They didn't even have scoreboards or in-game chat for the first 6 months or so after launch

No scoreboards or game chat... For a multiplayer FPS game.

A really embarrassing launch.

And even if there was a 64 v 64 game, it was impossible for more than 4 of us to party up into a game. The party system would only let 4 people into a game at a time. What a fucking joke

There hasn't been a good Battlefield game since Battlefield Vietnam.

Bad Company 1 & 2 are two of my favourite games. Great fun. The problem with this franchise though is that games are seemingly rushed out and released in a buggy state. Then a year and half later the devs abandon the title and it becomes all but unplayable due to rampant cheating online. So its not good at launch and its not good later. Makes for a very short window where the game and its online community is actually viable and eventually people pick up on this and don't even bother with them.

If they can take Bad Company 2 and just update it with better physics... That be great. Just remaster the fuck out of it.
