I played this game when it first came out, before microtransactions were a thing. It was pretty fun.

Shit, I spent like £12 on that game.

Avatar animations felt a lot like the robots in MvM, with the lower body walking in one direction while the upper body turned to another.

P2W shit shovelware nothing unexpected.
Why are you still buying EA games and complaining that your ass hurts.

Oh wow, totally forgot about Battlefield Heroes. Played it for about a week before i saw how ridiculously P2W it was. It was pretty funny to walk around in a tuxedo and tophat while spraying enemies with a minigun though.

Yep, Battlefield Heroes was pretty fun, until the P2W got too out of hand. Additionally, rest in peace Dawngate, you died before your time.

I never asked for this feel, soldier.

Erm, what?

I could never get behind that game. Mostly because I felt useless as my favorite character (The "spy") It just wasn't enjoyable for me, so if EA kills anything I'm glad it's this and not something that was worth keeping alive.
*Cough* DAWNGATE *cough cough*

I remember when it came out, had tons of fun with the game. Tried it a few years ago, but the magic was mostly gone.

I think the biggest shame is that the game dying means that there's no real way to archive it.

BFH: The best Battlefield game that wasn't named 2142.

Well, game dies - long live the game!

World War Toons trailer was quite good, fills pretty much same niche and I love the looks, as opposed to half-finished cut-with-axe pinocchios of BFH.

Ah, what a shame. I played it quite a bit a couple of years ago, it was fun, but I stopped due to the whole typical "pay with real money or your items will disappear after a week" that all other non-tf2 f2p fps online games have. Granted I've spend dosh on TF2 as well, so it was more about the funds

I don't know the game but I'm gonna assume you misspelled "an online only game" with "a only one game" on the comment bellow the comic.

i played BfH a lot in the early months, it was a lot of fun :D
sadly, i had to put a halt to it while i finished my thesis, and when i eventually get back on my horse, the horse would only win if it had golden hooves and silver saddles
wish EA could release a free server emulator

I played Battlefield Heroes for about 1.5 years before quitting. The game is outlandishly P2W indeed. But the high skillcap was there, and outsmarting your enemies with better guns is a thing.

It was fun while it lasted, but It was never to last.

Jo, I don't mean bad but BFH was fake and gay. Not because the Village People-esque outfits, but because the game was incredibly pay 2 win. Objectivly better guns could only be bought with real money.

Wait, did the soldier switch sides?

Actually the game was bad in the late years. It became a nightmarish P2W, if you wanted to play it with only the in-game money you could not even rent a proper gun for more than a week (with the same ammount i could BUY the gun for the in-game money early). And hight tier items were only for money.

Ma-an. I played Battlefield Heroes for almost half a year. Although you could use cash to get an upper hand it was somehow really fun. Random daily drops of free STUFF were nice. But most importantly, it was fun.

I played that a few times when it first came out it was pretty neat I loved the plane combat though. Super unrealistic how people could sit on your wings and fire machine guns but super fun. Grandchase also died this week it was a fun japanese game that has been out for a long time.

I tried to try it.

Couldn't get past account creation.

Said I was hacking.

Guess what I'm never playing, even if given a choice :D.

@Timothy Du: I always thought their concept was pay to be average where you basically could pay 10 bucks for a decent kit and win with that. Then you'd pay 10 for the other classes and in the end you'd spend 40 ish bucks where games like titan fall ask you for 60 to unlock everything.

Well, the game is kinda play-2-win and broke many promises.
Especially having to buy bazooka (permanent) with real money.
