I've been thinking of getting CoD4, but I don't want to waste my BF2 stats, I don't play on it that much so it takes me ages to get awards and promos.

So if CoD4 is loads better, I'll get it, but if it's just a "bit different" then there's no point.

What say you good people of BF2S.com?

cod4>bf2 in the infantry aspect, bf2 is a unique game.  combining air+inf, but when it comes down to infantry, cod4 hands down

Don't compare the games.

BF2 is multiplayer on a huge scale, with vehicles, possibly more tactics involved, and a lot slower.

COD4 is a lot smaller in scale, but more intense, with less tactics, but more frags.


I like both, just depends what i'm in the mood for.

If you like any shooter other than BF2 then you will like CoD4, if you have only ever played BF2 dont get it, because then the rest of us will have to put up with whining most likely.

If we see them from a totally objective stand-point then COD4 is superior...

If we look at how revolutionizing the games were at realease, then BF2...


But tbh COD4 is very much worth buying, but they are far from the same, COD4 is much more like CS than like Battlefield...

What about the awards and promos? How many trillions of hours do I have to play for between them?

I only ask because my next BF2 promo will happen in 161 days of playing at my current rate! Like I can be arsed to wait that long!

Its marketed at a casual gamer, ie one with a social life, so you can go through the first set of rankings in about 20 hours. Tons of perks + Guns + Skins to unlock, you get something new at every rank (of which there is 55).

If you get it for console however, you can do all the ranks 10 times through, in something called Prestige mode.

29 hours gametime = Rank 55
7 days gametime = 100% completed all challenges

Wether it be a perk, weapon or challenge, i'm pretty sure you get something fun every rank.

So can't I play prestige on a PC?

What's the gay-ass thinking behind that?

The ranks are stored client side and are editable, some ppl are sad enough to edit them.

Yup. But who cares tbh. If ppl do that it really doesnt give them an advantage, most of the best guns are the first half of the guns.

Asking if CoD4 is better than BF2 is like asking if Counter Strike is better than Flight Simulator (okay, not that much)

They are two very different games, only aspect they share is that they are modern combat and are both first person shooters.

allow me to open your eyes m8.


both cod4 and bf2 are respectible in their aspects. i played bf2 when it first came out, lost interest in the game 1.5 yrs after it came out. just tired of noobs and hackers in bf2.

cod4 has a better infantry battle only aspect than bf2. bf2 is more of a vehicle aspects, larger maps and all that.



i can not say whether bf2 is better than cod4, although they are multiplayer online shooters. you decide whats best for you and dont listen to every noob here when they tell you something.

Its not really a yes or no question.. imo they are both very different games.  CoD4 has much more flash substance, more bang, but its hardly got any teamwork at all and gets stale quickly, unlike BF2.

CoD4 is good at making you frustrated.
..It's worth it though.

I agree with most people in this thread.
BF2 is just more...epic, while CoD4 is more "In your face" action.

David: What else is there?

CoD4's more fun for the first two weeks.

Then you'll feel like throwing your discs in the microwave and slamming your headset into your monitor.

lmao... correct.  the infy fighting is better, but the lack of vehicles and hopelessly tiny maps kill it for me.
