Gameplay in Battlefield Heroes essentially continues the overall scheme of the Battlefield series except that you see your soldier form

the third person view. This includes useable vehicles and core gameplay - you have a large map with a certain number of control points. There are two teams - Royalists, resembling the Allied forces of WW 2, and Nationalists, inspired by the German military of the same time period - that compete over those points. Every point captured increases the impact of killing enemies, which in turn decreases the score of opposing team. The first team whose score reaches 0 loses the game.
As you can see, the gameplay formula is simple and easy to understand, yet opens up a lot of tactical possibilities and encourages a careful approach - your death decreases the score of your team. The teamplay is also enhanced by having three character classes - Gunner, the tank of the game, having the highest health and heaviest weapons like the anti-tank rocket launcher; Commando, a sniper/stealth class with the lowest health, long range rifles and limited invisibility for those nasty close-quarter knife kills, and Soldier, the most balanced class, with mid-range weaponry and ability to heal himself and other teammates in range. Every class works best in a team with others, and, as your character progresses in his level by receiving experience points, more skills are at your disposal, allowing you to customize your trooper as you see fit. The Game also features Missions, personal quests that you can accept and try to complete in battle, for example: kill 10 enemies with tanks. All of this ensures that you'll always have something to do in Battlefield Heroes - and you will do it with pleasure and a smile upon your face.
