Like previous Battlefield games, Battlefield Heroes had a class system, which has been reduced to three basic classes: the Soldier (a mid-speed, mid health mid ranged weaponed medic), Gunner (a heavy weaponed, high-health slow class), and Commando (a low health, speedy, snipe, and knife specialist). There was also a new mode called 'Conquest V2.' The goal of this mode was to take hold of a rocket for 5 minutes. Developers of the game had talked about levels going as high as 40 or 50, although the level cap never rose higher than 30. The game also features matchmaking to keep players of the same level together. Killing enemies and holding more flags than the opposing army would progressively reduce their number of lives. īattlefield Heroes featured classic Battlefield-gameplay with a variety of classes and vehicles.īattlefield Heroes featured a modified conquest mode providing each team 50 lives and eventually one flag at the start of the round.
