10 Things Only Battlefield Players Will Understand

10. Getting Mercilessly Obliterated By An Enemy Vehicle

There’s nothing quite so infuriating as having your streak ended by a smug man in a metal box.

While Battlefield isn’t technically about K/D (though there’s a few players who’ll swear otherwise), it’s still satisfying to rack up a few kills without getting ripped to shreds by a giggling moron with an LMG hiding in a corner.

In other games, you’d get a reward for such skill. In Battlefield, you’re blown to smithereens by an invincible death machine that always seems to drive round the corner at the worst possible time. Especially if your most effective armaments are a syringe and a spade.

Or maybe you’re not even a threat. Sometimes it's just crossing from one building to another on the way to your objective, minding your own business, when an enemy aircraft thinks you’d look better as a smudge on the road.

“Why?” you’ll shout at the screen as he blows himself up just to kill you, in a kamikaze display of vicious stupidity. If you’re lucky, you’ll be met with radio silence. If you’re unlucky, you’ll hear the faint crackles of laughter coming through the teamchat as you log off for the night.
