    Good looking game, but they removed so much from it, so battlefield 3 and 4 are much beter. i recommend battlefield 4. weapons are not fun to use and there isnt many to use.

    tl;dr - the game rewards failure. If a team is losing they get either a blimp or an armored train, depending on the map. It's like a participation trophy for the fat slow kids, but in this case the fat kid uses the trophy to bludgeon the first place kid to death.

    This title is primarily a multiplayer addition to the franchise that explores the first world war. The campaign is pretty short and linear, however, masterfully made with fantastic cut-scenes good enough for a cinema, and innovative narrative with good story and gameplay. The campaign is very good, though a bit small in scale seeing as the title is primarily a multiplayer game.

    The multiplayer is as well made with wonderful graphics, sound and crisp controls. Problem is that the gameplay itself is out the window....

    The balance in the multiplayer part is very very poorly tuned. Like previous titles, snipers, not limited to the Scout class, are severely overpowered, meaning that usually more than half the servers players play only as snipers. A single bullet from a machinegun at long range does about 14 damage. Snipers does 80-100 with the same caliber.

    If you want a realistic or balanced experience this game is not what you or I are looking for.
    The campaign is good though.    … Expand

    But **** me do the accuracy, bugs ruin this games fun.

    I have NEVER had a single multiplayer match without being ****ing pissed at the games ultimate decisions.

    Let's go over to the bugs:
    - Medkit pack not having physics so its just a placeable that ALWAYS bugs out when prone
    - When you get revived it says you are holding a gun but in reality its just an equipment (this has ****ed me over multiple times)
    - Accuracy system (the bullets never go where I am pointing the gun, it's literal trash)
    - "Teamkilling" when stabbing an enemy turned teammate. This has happened to me just twice but still is stupid as hell
    - Terrible collision (Basically when firing the gun it hits an invisible object in front of you, this has happened to me way too many times I can count).

    Now let's go over to Dice's terrible decision making:
    - Store system, like what the hell. You first have to unlock the damn item, and then you have to buy it. That's not it, there are DIFFERENT variants of your gun. Why not have simple attachment system like you did in battlefield3/4? This could have been prevented if they had a mastery level system for the gun but nooooo
    - Armored trains/Behemoth, are simply the most unbalanced piece of living crap I have ever experienced. IT always goes to the losing team and when they do they turn the battle around till we **** our pants of rage. My team got shredded when the armored train in the desert map arrived, and we lost the entire match because of it's stupid ass design.
    - Accuracy system (again)
    - Hitboxes
    - The new kit mastery system
    - RNG boxes

    I really wanted to like this game but it has a LOT of flaws.
    Anyways there are plus sides of this game:

    - Finally a decent World War 1 game.
    - Amazing graphics
    - NO BATTLELOG?
    - Interesting campaign concept    … Expand

    Expect to get bored of this game really fast. It is made for casuals. This is a real review from a real gamer with standards unlike the casuals that continue to give perfect scores to Battlefield 1. This game has way too many flaws to be anything close to an 8 let alone a 10.

    Content: The game lacks content. No hardcore. I dont care if it's delivered later. It should be in the game    Expect to get bored of this game really fast. It is made for casuals. This is a real review from a real gamer with standards unlike the casuals that continue to give perfect scores to Battlefield 1. This game has way too many flaws to be anything close to an 8 let alone a 10.

    Content:
    The game lacks content. No hardcore. I dont care if it's delivered later. It should be in the game already. That's lazy and it smells just like the EA MODEL which is $$$$$$$. Progression is very slow and very unrewarding. Lack of customization. These dtails alone remove any 10/10 scores given to the game.

    Gameplay:
    While new mode operations is a fun mix between rush and conquest it is still yet another sniper fest. Every map in almost all game modes encourages sniper play. Snipers are ROLFSTOMPING other players with martini henry. Medic is overpowered. Assault is basically a dummy. Support is completely useless.

    The worse part is that the game get boring VERY FAST. Check out the official forums. Hundreds of players are reporting that they only play 1-2 hours and get bored. They love the game but that's all they play. That tells you right there the game was made for casuals. People that only put in a small amount of time into the game then get bored and move on.

    Battlefield 1 is the most casual game ever made. For the love of God STOP comparing this game to bad company 2. Bad company 2 was a masterpiece. The best game in the series. The most balanced game in the FPS genre. Battlefield 1 is the most unbalanced, buggy, and casual game in the series.

    Gunplay:
    The most terrible gun mechanics I have ever seen. You are more accurate running and hip firing then you are standing still. Guns give out pathetic damage and soldiers are bullet sponges eating it all up. Some guns have recoil EVEN BEFORE YOU FIRE THE FIRST BULLET. LMGs are completely worthless. I mean the list goes on and on.

    Map design:
    Most maps are made for sniper play. Probably to cater to the COD crowd that moved on from call of duty.

    Skill:
    Skill has been removed from the game. People are averaging Kill Death Ratios of over 20.00!!!! Unlike previous battlefields, the average player in BF1 will finish the game with a 67-2 kill/death. This game is extremely easy even for someone who just joined. I have been playing since the release of BF2. Battlefield games have always had a nice learning curve. You don't just walk in this game and are automatically good. That happens in BF1. Players are reporting that they were terrible players before but not they average high KDs. I, for example, have never liked snipers and I finished one game 43-1 as a sniper in BF1. I have always been a terrible sniper. And yet this happens? I doubt that other players suck that badly. No, the game is just too easy.

    Vehicles:
    Light tank got nerfed into oblivion. Planes are useless and the AA gun is beyond overpowered. Its range reaches way across the maps!!!! Cavalry is still overpowered. You are shot with almost a full clip and you dont die but you swing your sword and you one shot kill your opponent LMFAO give me a break.

    This game is AT BEST a 6/10. There's no way this is in the league of bad company 2 or BF2 or BF3 or even BF4. You guys reviewing this game giving it a 10/10 have ZERO standards. You've no idea what a good battlefield game is. If you did, you'd know that BF1 is absolute casual trash compared to games like BF2 and Bad Company 2.    … Expand

    When I first saw the trailer for Battlefield 1 I was ecstatic. The game looked like it was going to be an immersive experience taking place in a setting that was very unfamiliar to gamers, World War 1. The story trailer depicted the horrors of combat during the war, and showed the main character visually shaken as they struggled to survive in the bloody conflict around them. The trailerWhen I first saw the trailer for Battlefield 1 I was ecstatic. The game looked like it was going to be an immersive experience taking place in a setting that was very unfamiliar to gamers, World War 1. The story trailer depicted the horrors of combat during the war, and showed the main character visually shaken as they struggled to survive in the bloody conflict around them. The trailer depicted a Battlefield game that would have a meaningful story. So I purchased it and downloaded it as soon as I could.
    The first mission was an awesome experience. The player faced off against waves of German soldiers who continuously encroached further and further. When the player died, instead of respawning, the name of the player character and age at time of death was displayed on the screen. Then the player is transported to the body of another soldier on the front. This continues until an artillery bombardment completely annihilates the battlefield, killing the Germans and player character alike. I was ready for the next mission, this innovative way of dealing with the player death was definitely an interesting innovation. I started up the next mission and watched as soldiers charge forward ahead of me. I found myself in a slow moving tank taking on hundreds of infantry and a few dozen tanks. It was then that I realized that Battlefield 1 was nothing special.
    Battlefield 1 continued the same infuriating trope that has plagued first person military shooters for a long time. It made the player character an almost indestructible badass, who can take out an entire fortress of enemies on their own. Instead of focusing on immersion and making the player character killable like everyone else, as in the first mission, the developers chose to focus on the player and the player alone. Instead of being an individual in a massive charge through no man's land, the game makes you attack cities and towns by yourself, as if you were some sort of super soldier. I feel like squad based combat like in Battlefield Bad Company 2 would have been a decent compromise. Or a campaign based on the results of multiplayer gameplay like that of Titanfall. Instead the players were given the same formula they had been given in the past two iterations of battlefield, and the countless interactions of Call of Duty.
    Battlefield 1’s story line is also non-consequential. Every single one of the protagonists is the good guy, the Germans and Ottomans the bad guys. Every single one of the main characters is depicted as moral and heroic while the Germans and Ottomans are portrayed as cowardly. The main characters are the most white-bread characters that I have played as in a video game. None of their character flaws are revealed, probably because the player is only introduced to them for a few missions before switching to another battle halfway across the world, and another copied and pasted character. From the trailers I was expecting a game that’s narrative would be as similarly dark and brutal as the fantastic game Spec Ops the Line. In a ferrous attempt to escape from the enemy the player has to make heart wrenching decisions, and commits atrocities in order to survive. Battlefield 1 has none of these moral failings, and the decisions are of minute importance, such as what weapon should I use, and if should I kill the enemy, and even then these decisions mean nothing to the narrative. Infact when I tried to go through a mission without killing or alerting any of the enemies the cutscene still depicted bodies sprawled across the terrain.
    Battlefield 1’s story and portrayal of Word War 1 is extremely weak, and a testament to Dice’s incompetence at crafting singleplayer narratives. Dice should focus their resources on what they do best, multiplayer. Don’t be fooled by the single player trailers, this game is not worth purchasing for the single player alone and the multiplayer while fun does not offer an authentic experience. The proliferation of light machine guns and prototype submachine guns completely ruins any immersion that might have existed. The anti-tank rockets that are unlocked at the start of the game completely negate tank use, and the Dreadnaughts, battleship or zeppelins, are not the Goliath challenges as they are depicted in the trailer. The lack of teamwork especially hurts the multiplayer experience and makes it significantly more casual game-play. If you want a multiplayer game to play with a squad of close friends and move tactically this is certainly not the game for you, check out Insurgency instead. In conclusion if you are expecting a chaotic first person shooter to casually kill some times time with your friends and you don’t care about story, this game is for you.    … Expand

    The game is loaded with snipers, because they can one hit kill you from range. Tanks are so over powered they get boring fast. I tanked a lot on past BF games, was global number 1 tanker on ps3 for over a year. I was disappointed with BF1 tanks. Way too simplified and easy to rack up massive kill streaks with. Tank on tank fights are bland and it's often a case of who gets the first shot off or who had x amount of repair players.

    With the map layouts in mind. Sniper camping, team spawning, kill cam and grenade spam, horses with massive health pools, over powered tanks etc. Matches are reduced to meat grinders. That or a game more based around a jogging simulator as you race from one objective to another. Then towards the end of the match, the losers get to hammer the winning side with either a battleship, blimp or armored train.

    The game is less about skill, opening up to casual gamer's wallets, and more random luck and chaos. I enjoyed past BF games for the strategy and tactics but in Bf1 it's more about spawning and dying and gaming ones reactions as players run around like headless chickens in waves.

    Other things bent towards casuals are random kits off the floor that make you overpowered, an elite hero unit that can soak up bullets while racking up easy kills like out of battlefront.

    Bf1 is a step away from games like BF 1942, Vietnam, 2142, and more towards games like call of duty or battlefront. Shame.    … Expand

Im all for GOTY editions however usually with a GOTY edition the existing player base has already played the content in it. Thats not the case here, anyone who was unfortunate enough to purchase a season pass with their copy of the game on launch (thankfully I did not after playing the beta I had my suspicions of the looming turd Dice was about to drop) has only received 1 piece of the DLC promised. Now for half the cost anyone else can get that and all subsequent DLC for a fraction of the price. (as I mentioned, Im all for GOTY editions once all content has been released and the loyal players have been given what they paid for in good faith). Judging by the number of active PC players less than 50k per month, this was clearly a last ditch attempt to inject some life blood into the player base or to put it another way, bleed more money from potential players.

    Some walls just crumble appart and some can stand all tank shots.
    Speaking of tanks, Horses can take more shots than a tank and the rider is magicaly immune to bulleds while riding.
    It is now a bit older, but still it feels like the devs released it, and start working on the next title.
    Of every Battlefields ive played it, this was the most unbalanced, 1 of 3 games is a stomp match where the best player of the one side would be one of the worst of the other side.
    The Matchmaking is terrible. I think it puts the team together by name or just random, no balance in MMR or even Level. i once had a game where my whole team was between level 5 and 20 and the enemy team everyonem was above level 50. (wich has nothing to say but the game results showed me otherwise)
    And still glitches, bugs and espesially cheaters are a common sight, battlefield and cheaters are always comming together and EA refuse to do something against it, even support it by making it nearly impossible to report cheaters. This game is arround 5 years old and still players asking ingame how to report cheaters.
    its good the vehicles are not that overpowered (if they get focues).
    On the tech side, it still somehow manages to mess up my system. i have a good, new PC and still the FPS are not good, constand low FPS or FPS drops are also common by me and my friends and the loadings times are long combined with some crashes every few days.
    With the terrible Gun feeling they maybe wantet to show that Guns in WW1 had not the accuracy of a laser, but it stills feels bad.

Nope. Why would they check for hackers at this point? I mean BFV is on it's way, why even give a flock for current IP? Suckers will pay, suckers always pay. Anyway, buy it for the Single Player.

    I have changed my opinion of the game as of late, I originally planned to give BF1 a 6-7 of 10 because the campaign was nice detailed, albeit short, and the graphics where amazing, as the multiplayer too had potential too. but as of this writing the PC platform is completely inundated with cheaters/hackers to the point where you will rarely find a game where someone won't kill you fromI have changed my opinion of the game as of late, I originally planned to give BF1 a 6-7 of 10 because the campaign was nice detailed, albeit short, and the graphics where amazing, as the multiplayer too had potential too. but as of this writing the PC platform is completely inundated with cheaters/hackers to the point where you will rarely find a game where someone won't kill you from across the map with a shotgun or, snipe you through a wall. I knew that BF1 had no real anticheat when I bought it I guess, but it is really starting to show now, with cheaters brazenly advertising their cheats in game and rage hacking at a breakneck pace, there is currently a rather notorious cheater actively and openly trolling people with his cheats, and advertising for the cheat supplier and he has been in game since the start and still is not banned, despite having an almost 100% accuracy score and his shots fired and kill score almost match.
    this will be the last EA product besides Mass Effect Andromeda that I will be buying for the foreseeable future. I can not believe that a game producer actually thinks that making a game with no active cheat detection is a good idea. fair-fight is a joke and it shows in the current state of BF1. do not buy until it is $20-30 & even then for the campaign only, or until EA actually implements a proper anti-cheat (Battleeye for ex:)    … Expand

    Not feeling it for Battlefield 1. Looks good but the gameplay is lacking. It tries to force emotions and fails miserably. And what's with the black dude? I'm not racist but it feels like Dice shoehorned them in to be PC. It's kind of insulting to black and white people. Black people didn't start WWI and a lot more white people died than black. Overall, its just not an entertaining game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanted to buy the game, but a little voice told me it was a waste of money. Then i heard from others that the game is great, awsome and so on. Then a little voice told me; perhaps it is a great game everybody seems to like it.

    Personally i think battlefield 1 is so great because of the marketing. But that is not important.
    A few weeks ago I was able to play the game for 10 hours. I downloaded the game and was finaly ready to see if BTF 1 is a good game or not. I started out with the single player, running a gtx 1070 and having a 144hz screen i soon found out that my 500 euro card would not get 144fps. Not even on the lowest settings did i get a good framerate. But well most people play on 60 hz, so they can play on high or above without problems with a gtx 1070. Still i feld cheated by dice, that they
    wouldn t let the 144hz people who like FPS games play a match on the lowest settings and not even hit 144 frames per second, unless they buy a ( GTX 1080)800 euro card.

    But still with you're 60 hz screen you're good to go. So i lowered my screen to 75 hz, and it was good. Well not the game but the frames per second. Oke after getting the settings right i could go on with that great single-player.
    I must have done something wrong because after 10 or 20 minutes i still waited for the single player to begin, yes i played some stupid soldier who was shooting at some other stupid soldier and then got shot, and then i played another stupid soldier who got shot. Really i think i am stupid, because i couldn t tell if i was playing the campaign or not, it was that boring. i fellt the need to play the multiplayer.
    I started up the multiplayer and spawned in to some desert. My first thought was; well this is a boring map, and guess what it was freakingly boring. i started out in a tank shooting some other player. I didn't think wow this is cool, no i thought WOW this is so boring oh my GOD, it is 10 times worse then BTF4 (btf4 was a 6 at most).

    Well it is not 10 times worse then BTF4, but thats what i was thinking when i was playing BF 1. So i played some more rounds, and really the game did nothing for me. It s the same as the other BF games, only now i am in wo 1. I was playing a game that was really old, and was cranked up with some new graphics. EA/Dice must be laughing, that people still buy there outdated boring BF games, and think that it is something new. Perhaps it was fun many many years ago, but for me not anymore. I am guessing that a lot of people bought the game because of the good advertising ea/dice knows how to bring, and they play it because ??? well i don't know.

    Really you don't have to buy the game. You're not missing out on anything. The only thing you're missing out on is spending money on a boring multiplayer game. i must admit, if nothing is happening for say 30 seconds i get bored and then i lose my concentration. But even that is not the reason i found bf 1 boring, it just is.    … Expand

I'm not a fan when your sight jumps from side to side, as well as a weapon that blocks the entire view. For some it will be realistic, but when on the other end of the map a guy with a machine gun on a bipod shoots at you without recoil, in my opinion, this is not realism. I want to play the game, not to hone the recoil of the cannon and not hide from the machine guns in the impenetrable bushes, I want to have fun playing the game. For me personally, realism is not so important to me as emotions from gameplay, and such factors as 'Realistic weapons' or 'Game conventions' are not at all interesting to me. Also in this game, in order to open a weapon, you must grind. This is certainly not a minus, but not a plus either. So my conclusion is: if you want to relax, this game is not suitable for you.
    P.S.
    This is purely my opinion, and I respect someone else's. Also by 2021, the game has not passed the test of time.    … Expand

The graphics, everything from shaders to particles are exemplary, and the optimization is fantastic.

The graphics, everything from shaders to particles are exemplary, and the optimization is fantastic. There is no better optimized game engine on the market than Frostbite and BF1 is the finest example of that.

    Unfortunately, Battlefield 1 is also the worst entry in the entire franchise. We all remember Battlefield 1942 fondly for its crazy, insane, chaos based gameplay. We remember the ships, the planes, the tanks, the big maps and the hilarious hi-jinks. Noone remembers that game fondly for its gameplay.

    Battlefield 1 lacks all the charm of 1942, but is loaded to the gills with its janky, unbalanced, and sloppy gameplay.

    BF3 and BF4 for the first time in the franchise, made the actual moment by moment gameplay good. The gunplay, the vehicular combat, and the interaction of those elements were top notch, and finally... FINALLY the gunplay matched up to the scale and quality of everything else. It did the whole schtick of "modern tactical shooter" better than anything on the market and made the contemporary (and far more widely known and popular) Call of Duty feel like a terrible joke. Bf3 and BF4 had tight, responsive, and skill based infantry combat that sent a chill down the spine and took serious effort to master. Noone loaded up BF3 for the first time and went on a killing spree of epic proportions. No, you loaded the game up and died like a **** for several hours until your body and mind adapted to the gameplay and environment, which were designed to reward skill. In short, BF3 and BF4 had a "skill cap" that both existed and had a notable and noticeably scale.

    Sure, you could be a 45 minute first time and get in a tank and slaughter some infantry for awhile. But then again.. your in a tank. That was good. As soon as you came up on a better player in a tank, you died. As soon as you came up on an engineer with more skill, you died.

    BF1 has none of this. BF1 has none of the good of BF3/4.

    Remember how you had to "tame" weapons in BF4? Remember how great your 950RPM AEK-971 was? or your 1000RPM FAMAS? Remember how you were taken aback by the recoil at first, and died like a moron 20 times in a row until you learned to pull against it, learned that the AEK was better in 4 round bursts, learned to yank to one side, learned to yank down sharply at first and then loosen up a bit on the compensation in full auto situations? Remember how your slow firing 500-600 RPM weapons required you to have better aim in CQB, required you to pull up to hit the head in order to stand a chance against high RPM weapons in CQB, but at range you could burst fire and out shoot them?

    Remember when it took skill to play the game?

    Those were fond memories. BF1 has none of that. In fact, you cannot burst fire any weapon in BF1. The only rapid fire weapons in the game are the assault SMG's and the Support LMGs and if you try to burst fire then you miss every shot. The LMG's are HARDCODED to be mag dumped. The guns LITERALLY INCREASE IN ACCURACY WHEN YOU HOLD DOWN THE TRIGGER. It even tells you this in the tooltip when you pick Support. This means if you want to hit a target midrange, you need to open fire and just randomly loose 20 or 30 rounds until the "spread" starts to visibly tighten up, then actually aim. Its absolutely moronic and encourages bad, spammy gameplay.

    The SMG's are no better, but instead of increasing accuracy the more you full-auto, they simply have no accuracy beyond CQB and extremely low bullet range and velocity. The developers solution to balancing SMG's (the primary weapon of the assault class) to everything else was to simply make them worthless beyond 30 or so feet. No matter what you do, be it single shots or careful bursts (which you cant actually do because first-shot accuracy is no longer higher than follow ups like in most FPS games and prior BF titles) you will NEVER hit targets outside the intended combat range. Scouts and Medics now use sniper rifles and DMR's. Thats it, they are just bolt action sniper rifles or DMR's, not much else to be said about them. NEVER. Skill plays no factor.

    And thats the killer of this game. The game is now built around rigid roles for each class. You cannot deviate from those roles. You can no longer take a high RPM CQB weapon and simply get really good with it, and use it to soften up targets at further than its optimal range with precise bursts. You can no longer take longer range, lower RPM weapons and do well with them in CQB by learning to aim for the head/ride the recoil up to the head

    Im at the 5000 character limit. I wanted to go into more detail but i dont have room. But suffice to say, the game has lost everything good about BF3/4 (tight gameplay, powerful but skill-heavy vehicles) and replaced it with bombast that looks great but feels terrible    … Expand

    1: The game does not even a quit button... They claim it's there, but it does not work. Every time you click it, the game freezes. I quit and just took a **** for 7 minutes, coming back to the pc, the game has still not exited.. Dice, come on...

    Dice, are you proud of this?

    3: You can spawn on a squadmember that is located anywhere on the map.. Gamebreaking mechanic.
    There is nothing more soulcrushing than gank 2-3 people, then 6 seconds later during your reload, they run you over again because their 3 man was hiding 4 meters away... This is the most idiotic system I have ever seen.

    4: Killcam is implemented... What???? So now, even if I do not play sniper, you can not find a good position and start supporting your team, because the first you kill, will see your position and retaliate.
    I've done it countless times agains them snipersbastards

    5: Spot in game.. You can click a button, and spot your enemies so they appear as a red mark all over the map... This is so broken that its not even funny... I have no idea how many times I click the button, but nothing happes. Even he is 20-30 meters away from me. This just needs to go.

    6: Medics revive a teammember to full healt... What the acutal f..k?
    This needs to be changed to 1 hp only, and the reciepient of a revive can not gain healing or shoot weapon for 10-20 seconds. (Or shoot weapon one time, and then die again from the recoil)
    The annoyance of you shooting someone dead, to have them be revived 2 seconds later at full health is utterly bull****.

    These are the top most annoying, gamebreaking, soulcrushing issues that does not make the game what it should be.    … Expand

Shame on you DICE for bringing this crap and insulting the old BF games legacy, sadly there are hardly any other WWI games, so we gotta play this **** if we wanna play something WWI related. The graphics are great and the sound effects are decent. But the controls ruin the experience. Also the cutscenes are way too frequent and annoying, I tought I was playing a game not watching a boring movie. I will go a head and give this crap an extra point just for trying to be a decent WWI game.
    The game is so unrealistic and anachronic, most of the weapons shown in the game didn't even existed in 1917 or 1918. Planes were not capable of such maneuvers, and the part where the soldier takes photos with a 100+ yrs old camera, and the pictures are perfect, not even moved xD. That was impossible to do with a camera that had no eye stabilizer. Same applies to tanks and other guns, there was only 1 portable machine gun, and the game has like 10 lol. Not only unrealistic and anachronic but also pretty poor representation of WWI, the characters act like they are in a circus or out in a nightclub, really pathetic, I hate their egos so much. The scenes looks like they are from a movie instead of trying to represent the WWI as best as possible (laughable). I was liking this game until the planes chapter... omg... it's so bad it's laughable, the flying mechanics are a disaster, makes the game nearly unplayable, add that the cheesy voice acting with characters that act like war is a joke, and you have a combo for poor quality, way to handicap players Dice, with **** controls. First of all, I don't like planes, so why the **** they force me to play an entire chapter flying a crap plane with awful aiming controls while the stupid character won't shut up, yeah that stupid that thinks he is a winner for being in a fake war... pathetic, I hope people wasn't like that back in the day, **** ww1 who cares about that war anyways.
    5/10 (not recommended, huge dissapointment, I was expecting smth much better with better controls)    … Expand

    Well if you saw the score you already know I don't like this game.
    That's not to say that I don't see any positives or don't think it might be 'ok' for some to buy so please read on before making your decision on my review.
    First let's start with the Positives: + Really fantastic graphics. + Destructible environments. It's fun to get a sniper out of that house by blowing it to bits    Well if you saw the score you already know I don't like this game.
    That's not to say that I don't see any positives or don't think it might be 'ok' for some to buy so please read on before making your decision on my review.

    First let's start with the Positives:
    + Really fantastic graphics.
    + Destructible environments. It's fun to get a sniper out of that house by blowing it to bits with a tank or mortars!
    + Generally stable servers which will only improve further with some fine tuning.
    + Innovative battle modes where you push enemy back and another map loads and you play that one in a sort of tug of war which makes the game feel like it has bigger picture consequences.
    + Despite what some may say, a pretty wide array of weapons considering it's WW1 and IRL each country had only one or two bolt action rifles which 95% of soldiers carried. So they did a good job of 'digging up' extra realism based weapons to include.
    + A couple decent support roles for those who want to do something besides get kills all the time. Support and Medic can both be very useful to the team.
    + It fills a gap in an otherwise stale genre. Let's face it COD has been basically the same game for 10 years now with map packs and a few tweaks being sold as new games. And not really much else besides CS which has been the same game for 15+ years.

    Now the Negatives:
    - As of game release day 1, the game is absolutely loaded with cheaters. Bring up the chat in any map and just watch a few minutes and you'll see people getting 'banned'. Several per match. Which is quite surprising so early in a game's release cycle.
    - Cheaters are not permanently banned! Why oh why would the developers make the decision not to invalidate a CD key I have no idea. I've seen several threads on the topic in the official game forums and the devs feel it would be too 'hard' on paying players. Wow! So they're more concerned with the cash flows from the cheaters than from the paying players?! OK! Anyway, someone gets 'banned' and they'll be right back in a matter of minutes.
    - Guns have no stopping power so only the very last bullet which kills them makes any difference whatsoever to their ability to spaztically run all over, evading your last bullet, and shoot back, greatly favoring twitch reflexes over strategy an tactics.
    - The most solo unfriendly shooter in history. No FF (Friendly Fire) means mic'd up squads of move in one 'mass' and throw out enough lead to mow down any player in their way. As a solo player, you'll be faced 1v5 most every time you see the enemy (though you do have the option to sit back and play sniper). And arguably this does provide some real value to players who like to buddy up.
    - Overall the guns are just 'weird' compared to any other shooter. The closest I can compare it to is Planetside which also doesn't feel like a 'real' shooter if classic play style is your preference. Personally I found all the guns except the sniper rifles just lacked an 'oomf', and had no sense of real power or damage when hitting.
    - Sound. Though the sounds are generally pretty good. It takes an extremely expensive or extremely loud sound system to be able to hear footsteps. Some say its OK, others have the same complaint. Really depends on your system and config. With my headphones I can't hear a damn thing until the very last step which doesn't matter anyway because you're already knifed.

    Overall: I think the game does a lot right. But more cheaters than I've seen in any FPS getting kicked from literally every match, an extreme unfriendliness to solo players, weak feeling guns with no sense of impact, and way too silent footsteps which means more knife deaths from behind than you can count all conspire to bring down what could otherwise be a great game.

    If the developers change their stance on permanently banning cheaters I might have another look. Until then, I'll pass.    … Expand

    The design philosophy is "if you spend 5 seconds not shooting at something, it's wrong". Soldiers run super fast, there are no battle lines, death is meaningless, because you constantly respawn, action is meaningless, because everyone dies constantly. There is no movement to positions, no tactics, no strategy, only mindless, constant, dumb action.

    I previously reviewed this and gave it a 4. I've always focused on vehicles in the BF series, going back to the Vietnam release. Having spent a little more time with the game, I'm downgrading it further to a 2.

    This is not the BF of yore, where vehicle combat meant something to the outcome of a match. This is basically an infantry game with some sloppily added vehicles. Depth of play    I previously reviewed this and gave it a 4. I've always focused on vehicles in the BF series, going back to the Vietnam release. Having spent a little more time with the game, I'm downgrading it further to a 2.

    This is not the BF of yore, where vehicle combat meant something to the outcome of a match. This is basically an infantry game with some sloppily added vehicles. Depth of play in the infantry role breaks down to one of the four classes and the variations in their weapons. It heavily favors sniping (Scout class). Most of the infantry roles can carry some form of anti-vehicle weaponry, including snipers that can damage armor from distance with "K bullets" and an anti-tank gun that fires like a sniper rifle.

    Ground vehicles include three variations of tank: from a single seat light tank and two larger multi-crew tanks, each with three variations that generally "specialize" (or pigeon-hole) the vehicle. Visibility for all but the driver is terrible in each type, which makes riding in them dull. They're all quite slow and easy targets for the broad array of anti-vehicle weapons.

    The planes are the worst aspect of this Battlefield iteration. Truly, this was a missed opportunity for DICE. Instead of creating polished air-to-air flight mechanics, it's mostly biplanes on rails. The lag in the code is so bad that planes often appear to cartwheel, warp or even fly backwards when pursued. There is no speed management required, and "dogfights" are just long, boring chases; no cutting, no switching. This is a shame, because it was in WWI that dogfighting was born. Unfortunately, it was an afterthought in this game.

    There are three variations of aircraft, each with their own limited variations which force the player to choose air-to-air or air-to-ground. The former is essentially useless in its role, as the air to ground variants can hold their own against other aircraft. And other than the bomber and the attack plane's anti-vehicle role, they're all pretty harmless to the opponent. This is due in part to the inability to spot or see infantry. The flare mechanic for spotting infantry from the fighter's "trench fighter" role either doesn't work or is too watered down to be of use.

    In short, most aircraft are only good for transporting a player across the map quickly. They have no impact on the ground situation and are easily destroyed by the AA guns sprinkled liberally around the maps.

    If you like vehicles and played previous BF titles, especially 2, 3 and 2142, you'll be disappointed with DICE's weak efforts here. They have taken it a step further than they did with BF4, where widely available auto-guided, low-skill weapons ruined vehicle play. In this iteration, not only are anti-vehicle weapons widely available, the vehicles themselves have no teeth at all.

    The only positive thing I can say about it is that it's graphically beautiful. But DICE has no monopoly on that these days. I'm so glad I only paid $60 for this; some paid $140 for it. But then, I learned that lesson in BF4. Never trust DICE or the so-called "Critcs". Save your money and buy something else.    … Expand

    Its a pathetic reskin of Star Wars Battlefront, with the same game feel and gun scheme, the bullets have a random dispersion cone, taking all the skill away from shooting, whether you use sights or not, having a good shooting discipline was a major factor in any fight in past BF games: this just ruined the game for me as they took that away.There is no strategy, just people running around and killing each other. MASSIVE frame drops, I have a gtx970 and I was in 60fps in medium settings... to drop to 30fps every 40 seconds or so, absolute garbage.

Tactics and thinking in this game isnt giving players an edge.. you can take strategic position, see an enemy in an open field, totally flanked start firing with all the recoil compensation as possible and its better if you had run straight at enemy shooting smg from the hip 30-40 meters away, cuz it wont make a difference. Game is basically how much you horde and how much lead you shoot out + revive, its disappointing. From a game that had recoil and spread pattern for every individual weapon of its own you get to play a game where only sniper hits where it actually aims.

    This anti historical mess craps on the memory of the millions of europeans sent to their deaths. Stop giving money to global companies that hate you, your family and your society.

    I have never before gotten motion sickness from a videogame, but the headbob in this game really does it for me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a someone who started with 1942 and toped that game about some 2000 hours i am dissapointed with what DICE has been shoveling games with these day's.

    The game is NOT interesting..at all!
    In the 45 minutes i played this game half of my team was running and gunning pew pewing with LMG'all over the map just ignoring the objectives and the other half was on top of some mountain sniping.Netcode of the game is still FUBAR as you never know who shot you from where and if you rely on the killcam most of the shots/kills are impossible to make ,so in my opinion you would never know is if the player who shot you legit/aimboter/or the killcam is (again)not working properly.

    Refunded after one hour and dissapointed that DICE failed yet again in making an enjoyable game i was hoping for.
    Sad as i am that the glorious day's of 1942,Battlefield 2 and 2142 are long gone i would never recomend this game to anyone.
    Teenagers on the other hand seems to like it it and can't get enough of!

    Refunded and unninstalled ...meh!    … Expand

    Zero tactics, everyone is running around like a headles chicken,

    No room for vehicles as the maps are way too small, with invisible walls EVERYWHERE!

I have read multiple threads from SEA, South Africa, India and Dubai requesting for EA to provide servers to their paying customers but to no avail EA is being a **** and not even taking the time to reply. They DO NOT show any love or support to their fans across those countries i have listed. ZERO LOVE! Therefore my advice is DO NOT buy it. Such a disappointing "AAA" Company. Bf3 and Bf4 had multiple servers for the various SEA countries, they really went back in time and devolved from where they used to be. DO NOT SUPPORT EA AS THEY DO NOT SUPPORT US.
    They do not even bother reading the forums...

    One of the worst shooters i have ever played, no one on on your team will ever listen to you and will just blindly walk out and die, the balance of the game is just terrible in that SMGs and Shotguns > everything.

    Better than Battlefield 4, but that doesn't say much. With some friends, it can sometimes be quite fun, and I actually got a bit of Red Orchestra vibes from playing this.

    So why does Battlefield still suck? The game has about as much to do with World War I as the Black guy on the poster.

    So why does Battlefield still suck?

    The game has about as much to do with World War I as the Black guy on the poster. There is zero trench warfare, and nearly all the weapons are automatic or semi-automatic. In other words, it's still a game for the braindead people who don't have a clue.

    DICE's philosophy of game design seems to be on the same level as their political philosophy: they want to equalize everything. The game punishes skill and rewards reckless play. Try reviving your teammates and you get instantly killed. Try supporting your teammates with machinegun fire and you get instantly killed. Try doing anything except running around like a chicken on fire, and you get instantly killed.

    If that isn't enough, the game now rewards the losing team with a giant equalizer in the form of a huge airship that can more or less kill anything at any spot on the map. So we now have 100% equal gameplay with noone being able to be better than the other. Which is pretty boring for someone who wants more than explosions and nifty sound effects.    … Expand

    - EA forces local languages on you, but doesnt bother with grammar, their descriptions is filled with grammar mistakes.

    UI interface is the worst, it's not intuitive and feels empty. For example, you cant change loadout while loading, but you can buy battle packs which have nothing but skins in them and totally useless.
    Overall there's a very little choice of weapons, and even those you have are basically a copy paste of 3 weapons per class with very little changes.

    BF1 is not worth $80 they are charging for it in Russia. Whats the use in great graphics if everything else is half assed, buggy and unplayable. Most indie games are better quality and you get them for $10 tops.

    BF1 and games like these that have been dumbed down so much that they are becoming the 'reality shows' of the gaming world. Let's be honest now, a casual player generally plays for the first month or two but after a while they leave it for the next shiny thing while they leave the game to the rest of us, ...in a broken, half-assed state lacking many features and introducing many unwanted ones.

    You have no idea how it pains me to see where BF is going. Thousands of hours that I put in into BF42, BF2 and all the way up to BF4. From a long time fan this hurts.

    Pretty graphics but no soul, you know... similar to games that have sold out to the casual crowd like Fallout 4, Diablo 3 etc. Quantity over Quality will be the downfall of this series and the gaming industry including DICE. Yes dumbing down a game to get more people to purchase your game is a great business decision at first but in the long run it will be death to a series that one cherished and loved.

    It's sad to say but Battlefield has lost its core roots. So much for Battlefield to continue having a special unique identity ...at least it used to have one.    … Expand

I found the game to be slow, and I actually got bored a few times in the 1st few hours I played it, I was in awe with the last title for at least a week.

    The game really comes off as lazy, the guns are TERRIBLE, the options are less than before, many of the game features are not explained or maybe nonexistent anymore!?! The battlefield companion is harder to use than battlelog, the servers didn't work at launch, and I bought the game a week after launch, and they were still down. Every gun is spray and pray, and while its WWI only the scout has a bolt action firearm. Ugh I should have give this game a 0. the battlepacks now give skins, so in case you love the casual overwatch, now you can have some of that nonsense in your BF as well. Anyway wait for the price to go down and then give it a try.

    Look BF4 had a TON of issues, and it was complete garbage at release, yet I find this game to be less than BF4. I wonder if it is release issues again or not, thankfully there is now a refund option, and I have already got my money back on this very bad battlefield game. I guess it's BF4 until something better comes out, and nothing better came out in 2016.    … Expand

    And now thats the point why i dont like this game. there is absolutely no motivation. Medals are low rewarded. There is nothing thats hard to unlock or worth it. Most weapons are absolutely awful. Especially the support is useless. The aiming feels totally weird and the aiming percentage stuff is just confusing. The maps could also be better. (Monte Grappa is absolutely unplayable in operations, misplaced spots like G on sinai, unbalanced sides (one team reaches the game deciding spot in the middle faster. etc. etc.))
