"Despite a terrible launch and almost a year of lacklustre updates, Battlefield 4 ended its life as one of the most beloved titles in the Battlefield franchise and is to this day viewed as the standard to which other games must aspire."
Singleplayer. 
PvP Multiplayer. Battlefield 4 handles environmental destruction better than just about any other game before it and since, with even Battlefield 2042 failing to capture the spectacle of a collapsing skyscraper or bursting a dam, flooding the map in the way that Battlefield 4 did.
While Battlefield 4 was not the first (nor the last) Battlefield title to allow for elemental destruction when considering the limitations of 8th-generation hardware, what DICE could accomplish without the aid of powerful local or server-based resources is nothing short of miraculous.
At launch, Battlefield 4 was a buggy mess, and while DICE worked tirelessly to address the most pressing issues, over a year later, when Battlefield Hardline launched, Battlefield 4 was still a mess, widely regarded by the gaming community as being one of the least optimised titles of all time.
This would only begin to change in earnest during Battlefield 4’s second year of life, with a series of updates vastly improving game performance, resulting in a wave of goodwill that continues today.
Because of these updates, Battlefield 4 enjoys the benefits of a small but active community on all platforms nine years after release, something that is relatively unheard of in the genre, with only a few first-person shooters able to maintain stable matchmaking for more than two years.

Despite a shaky start, Battlefield 4 became one of the most beloved titles in the franchise’s history. It is still worth playing in 2024, despite its diminished player base and lack of 9th-generation optimisation.
We found Battlefield IV to be a good game, meaning it is likely to be enjoyable for most players, despite having a few areas that could be improved upon.
"Star Wars: Battlefront is one of the most clinical and uninspired AAA titles released in the past decade and the worst Star Wars game released since Star Wars: The Clone Wars – Republic Heroes (2009)"
"After multiple delays, a promising start, and a rapid decline into irrelevancy, the story of XDefiant is almost at an end."
"Despite having the weakest campaign in the history of the series, Call of Duty Black Ops III redeems itself by offering the most robust zombie mode offering in the franchise's history alongside passable, if not enjoyable, multiplayer content."
