Stands for Battleframe Robotics, or Big Fucking robots from the Online game
planetside. They used to pwn back around 2004 - 2005 until the community got the developer's attention to nerf it until it sucks.
It is a Bipedal Armored vehicle also known as a mech, however as of now since it was nerfed it doesn't really define a mech.
It has two variants, (Used to be 3) which the two are gunner variant, and flight variant for all three empires, The Flyer variant describes itself, it is a mech with flight capabilities but since it was nerfed it becomes a flying
bullet magnet thanks to the bitchy planetside community complaining about the mech being too leet
To obtain the privalige to drive a BFR, you have to go into the caverns and score 75 unique kills and be accounted for 5 cavern facility captures. Many BFR owners complain that all the effort into getting the BFR is actually a waste of effort and time to get something that is shitty in combat.
Needless to say, if people want to drive and fight in real
mechs they should play
mechwarrior or something that has mechs in it. (The
BFR's in planetside are an insult to the
Mechwarrior Community.)
However with lame performance comes great appearance which actually does not surpass it's actual effectivness in general combat.
SoloSoftienoob: OMGZ!!1one a BFR!1 LAWL im gunna gets out my shotgun and go underneath the BFR and shoot it to death.

Other Teammate: Stop bitching and drop it as a
cert.
