15 Greatest Multiplayer Video Games Of The Decade (So Far)

Almost three years after it released, Battlefield 4 is the multiplayer shooter that keeps on giving. Thanks to countless patches, a wealth of expansions (which are all now free, by the way) and a multitude of updates to the type of servers you can play on, the amount of content available in DICE's latest modern multiplayer shooter is insane.

But at the end of the day it's the excellent map design, brilliant team-play and tight gun battles that keep fans returning to the game so many years on. While the flow of the title is classic Battlefield (capturing a series of objectives using a mixture of infantry and vehicular combat), it's the title's "levolution" feature that keeps the every match feeling fresh and dynamic.

More than just a marketing buzzword, levolution allows the structure of entire maps to change dramatically, usually thanks to some ridiculous feats of destruction in the game world. But whether it's an entire skyscraper falling down or a storm that beaches a massive battleship, all of the maps would still be some of the best in the series without these terrain-changing gimmicks.

Although the combat still isn't as twitchy as Call of Duty, Battlefield continues to strike an amazing balance between the fast-paced gunplay and more considered team tactics that, for my money, comes together to make the most enjoyable modern military first-person shooter on console.
