    Singleplayer: Schleichpassagen sind teilweise langweilig, teilweise nervig. Die Stories tragen einen aber dennoch durch die Kampagne. Alles - bis auf Schleichen - fühlt sich aber satt und spaßig an.
    Multiplayer: Selbst Jahre nach der Erscheinung ist es noch möglich einen vollen Server zu finden. Die Schlachten vermitteln das gewünschte Battlefield-Feeling.

    A true masterpiece in its category. The story and narration is great, it gives the feeling of reality and real war.

    Battlefield 1 is a great game, I was actually waiting to play it for two reasons, sadly, two reasons which ended up being based around falsehoods.

    First reason was that I heard the main campaign sucked and was tackled on, by the numbers, and boring.

    First reason was that I heard the main campaign sucked and was tackled on, by the numbers, and boring.

    Second reason, was that I heard you couldn’t skip the cutscenes in the game, which I personally don’t mind that much for my first playthrough, but this is something that really hurts replayability, as well as the option to ignore the story in case it isn’t for me, or it ends up being, just, plain, bad.

    Turns out, in the end, the campaign is actually pretty good and done with care, and you sure as hell can skip cutscenes in the game. This is a good thing all things considered, mainly because of how re-playable some of these stages are with a number of collectibles and codex entries to find, as well as because the game features three levels of difficulty and a wonderful game design that prioritizes the player’s freedom on how to tackle their objectives, rather than a guided journey, in which you’re just left to follow directions and/or orders (looking at you Aliens Dark Descent).

    The story basically follows five different sides of World War 1, focusing on a number of well-known fighters, although some focus more in smaller scale adventures, trying to mystify the journeys of tank commanders and air force pilots, you can play through these missions at your own leisure, but there is an order to follow according to the numbering of each, although the stories don’t really have a continuity between them; for the most part each campaign is evenly paced given that the stories at the most have around five or four missions each, totalling around 30 minutes to an hour for each campaign, depending on your speed and selected level of difficulty.

    What I really like about these campaigns was the variety as well as the focus of each mission, some are more emphatic in showcasing the motivations behind each soldiers enlisting, while in other cases they’re stories about the brutality of war, or the camaraderie between brothers in arms, is really cool from a narrative perspective because it keeps things going. But this transcends to gameplay as well.

    For the most part Battlefield’s 1 campaign, remains a shooter, you run around between encounters taking down enemies, but there are some cool mechanics to keep things fresh; for starters, the game added a very simple, but welcomed, stealth system, in which you can get silenced weapons from time to time, or distract enemies for inevitable takedowns, these sequences reminded me to those from the Wolfenstein series of games, essentially serving as a prelude to the actual fight, although there are times in which you can skip through certain fights just by stealthing your way through them, which was highly satisfying as well.

    There are also weapon tents throughout the levels, these held crates with different types of equipment, like better weapons or better explosives and/or tools, it’s pretty cool, adds variety, and makes it so you’re in the lookout for these things. Taking about explosives, I want to add that Battlefield 1 reintegrated the destructible system from the Bad Company games, in turn, there were numerous times where I had to either change my cover, or found myself in better, more advantageous positions after the enemy shot the roof on which I was standing, sending me crashing down into a house for better cover, to give an example.

    These missions are also coupled with some vehicle sections which, in my opinion, are the worst aspect of the campaign, is not that they’re bad, but they’re not nearly as dynamic as when you’re on foot, it’s nice that a lot of the times you can use these vehicles in the middle of the battle, like going in an out of a tank, or using horses to travel long distance areas, but it can also get quite tedious if I’m just locked into a tank, or a plane, and about the only highlight of the experience is the destructible systems, this is specially apparent in the airplane campaign in which, because of a tutorial -that I think was highly unnecessary at that-, you’re forced into subsequent plane missions, thankfully these gets better paced after a couple of missions in that campaign but still; I would’ve much rather prefer what they did in the tank encounters, in which you got to be in tank, but there were also sections where you just had to roam around or look after the tank, playing around with the vehicle strengths and weaknesses, all the while affecting the gameplay.

    Overall, I really enjoyed my experience with Battlefield 1, the plane campaign could’ve been better paced, but generally I really thought it was a fine experience and one that I really, really liked.    … Expand

Well crafted maps and highly detailed characters and weapons, along with beautiful graphics and sound design make an extremely immersing experience.

    Battlefield 1 takes players on a thrilling and immersive journey through the harrowing battles of World War I. With its breathtaking visuals, intense multiplayer action, and a well-crafted single-player campaign, the game offers a unique and memorable experience that stands out in the first-person shooter genre.

    Visually, Battlefield 1 is a masterpiece. The game's stunning graphics and    Battlefield 1 takes players on a thrilling and immersive journey through the harrowing battles of World War I. With its breathtaking visuals, intense multiplayer action, and a well-crafted single-player campaign, the game offers a unique and memorable experience that stands out in the first-person shooter genre.

    Visually, Battlefield 1 is a masterpiece. The game's stunning graphics and attention to detail bring the war-torn landscapes and iconic battlefields of World War I to life. From the muddy trenches of the Western Front to the vast deserts of the Middle East, every environment feels authentic and meticulously designed.

    The single-player campaign in Battlefield 1 is a standout feature. Rather than focusing on a single protagonist, the game presents a collection of War Stories, each highlighting a different character and their unique perspective on the war. This approach provides a diverse range of experiences, from pilot dogfights in the skies to gritty infantry combat on the ground. The emotional narratives and immersive storytelling make each War Story engaging and memorable.

    Multiplayer is where Battlefield 1 truly shines. The large-scale battles featuring up to 64 players create chaotic and adrenaline-fueled gameplay. The variety of maps, modes, and vehicles ensures that no two matches are the same. Whether you're storming the beaches in Conquest mode or engaging in intense close-quarter combat in Operations, the multiplayer experience is exhilarating and addictive.

    The introduction of Behemoths, massive vehicles that can turn the tide of battle, adds an extra layer of excitement and strategy. Whether you're piloting an armored train or commanding a battleship, the Behemoths provide a unique and dynamic gameplay element that keeps matches interesting.

    While the gameplay in Battlefield 1 is solid overall, there are a few minor issues that prevent it from reaching perfection. Occasionally, the spawn system can be frustrating, placing players in the line of fire or far away from the action. Additionally, some weapons and gadgets feel unbalanced, requiring further tweaking for optimal gameplay.

    Despite these minor flaws, Battlefield 1 offers a captivating and immersive experience that pays homage to the sacrifices and heroism of World War I. The game's stunning visuals, engaging single-player campaign, and addictive multiplayer make it a must-play for fans of the first-person shooter genre.

    Overall, Battlefield 1 earns a well-deserved 8/10 rating. It's a thrilling and immersive journey through one of history's most significant conflicts, delivering an unforgettable gaming experience for both solo players and multiplayer enthusiasts alike.    … Expand

    Honestly the best game I’ve personally ever played! Game has historical accuracy and amazing attention to detail. The game has so much heart and soul in it it feels like I bought a person instead of a game. Never will there be a game that I love as much as BF1.

    I bought this game way after it came out and the graphics still stand up today. The maps are full of detail and there are a variety of weapons. However the snipers are very annoying. But you can run into the b objective building in the argonne forest map with a mine and place it down and blow up 10 people at once so it's pretty good.
