Vehicular Combat as a genre has a rather obscure video game genre for many years since about the year 2000. However, Battlefield has been one of the few games that has been focused on vehicular combat as part of the gameplay here.
One of the things that I have been really enjoying about the vehicles is how they can be customized now. This gives them even more strategic depth which was missing in the older games.
Another aspect is how there is more attention giving to countermeasures and how they are integrated with the combined arms aspects of the Battlefield games. Instead of vehicles having this sense of being separate from other parts of gameplay.
The gameplay is truly cinematic.
One of the things that I have seen in YouTube videos is that the gameplay flow is consistent and exciting. We have so many interesting narratives of players partaking in shows of amazing abilities. It is one of those games that seemed optimized upon release and it wants you to play it.
The vehicle gameplay is enough for the price of admission. I think that this combination of vehicular combat and FPS shooter combat is why the franchise has been able to endure and thrive.
