    Nice graphics and sound.
    Multiplayer seems well optimized in performance and netcode. So far campaign looks good. CONS: Unlimited running, seriously? A little fast for a WWI FPS game... wish it had the speed of the BF1942 game... I think hackers are starting to ruin the game. Because of game speed, it loses some tactics and strategy and turns into a run and shoot game like

    This is easily one of the best world war games I have ever played. The Single player campaign is great! The only thing that lets it down is the lack of historical accuracy in some areas.

    This is the Battlefield I have always been waiting for.

    Finally, I don't feel that "fat character lag" that I always experience in the past BF.
    Now it's as fluid as a Counter-Strike or COD can be.

    All that with amazing graphic, building destruction, and all the tank etc...

    Finally a game that is polished at launch !

    Feel so great. Thank you

    Ive held off on my review until I have had some serious playing time under my belt. Firstly I think the day 1 user reviews are a tad pathetic due to the fact they are either hating on the game and giving it a 0 or looking at it through rose tinted glasses and giving it a 10 based on an hour or so of gametime. I try to be a little more objective than that hence the delay.

    Ive held off on my review until I have had some serious playing time under my belt. Firstly I think the day 1 user reviews are a tad pathetic due to the fact they are either hating on the game and giving it a 0 or looking at it through rose tinted glasses and giving it a 10 based on an hour or so of gametime. I try to be a little more objective than that hence the delay.
    This is THE game I have been waiting for this year and now having played on it extensively I will start by saying it is a great game, it still is by no means perfect but still a fine addition to the series.

    Graphically it has no peers, this is to me one of the best looking games of all time if not the best. The textures are rich and detailed, the environment stunning and it's just a visual feast to behold, especially running on ultra with everything to the max in 1440p. I have yet to try to remove the hud but I would think that would add yet another level to the setting and it's on my to do list, if I dare that is, not knowing how much ammo I have left before charging the enemy wouldn't be the best scenario to be in. The sound is pretty good too, the sound of shells exploding next to you and gunfire whizzing overhead as you make your way to objectives can be unsettling at times, in a good way.

    The multiplayer aspect is as you'd expect with Battlefield games, not much has changed here in my opinion apart from the Operations mode which is great. It is multiplayer where I have spent most of my time, perfecting my roles and learning the dynamics of the game. I always find in Battlefield games that I get destroyed early on but the more I play the more I learn and find my preferred playstyle and start getting positive results. It's always a learning curve and patience and perseverance pay off.

    Moving along to campaign, this is where I feel Battlefield 1 falls short. The opening campaign mission that you have to do before unlocking the rest was fantastic, it captured that gritty, gloomy feeling of WWI combat, it was chaotic and it worked. I loved how when I died a name would pop up with birth to death dates show before spawning as someone else in the battle. Sadly the rest of the campaign I feel fails to live up to the first mission and subsequently fails to illuystrate the horrors of WWI combat, the Friends in High Places especially, I hated the cocky Yank guy and couldn't shake that feeling that the campaign had lost its way a little. The lawrence of Arabia mission too, one man (woman) vs all, it's just dubious, obviously in the name of entertainment some creative license was needed but it just felt like it was the wrong call. The campaign fails therefore to capture the horrors of WWI, quite miserably it must be said which is a shame given how good the opening mission was.

    The spectator mode is something I want to try but have so far not been able to find out how to, I quite like the idea of messing around with filters and taking screens etc of matches.

    Overall I am happy with Battlefield 1, I still wish Dice would have allowed for better character customization and maybe the ability to select race. It just isn't doing anything for historical accuracy to have a squad as diverse as this where the white man was the minority but I suppose Dice have their political views to express, it's not a big problem and I understand why Dice may have wanted to demonstrate their political stance but in the grand scheme of things I just felt it was misplaced. Apart from the historical innacuracies this game is both fun and infuriating at the same time, a fine addition to the franchise but no masterpiece.

    Games as of 12/01/2016

    Pros:
    Very fun and chaotic multiplayer
    Gorgeous graphics and sound
    Well thought out maps (IMO)

    Cons:
    Spawns are iffy
    Gun balancing is iffy
    UI is abysmal (Thanks Origin!)
    Some design choices are iffy

    Overall this has been one of my favorite Battlefields starting with BF:BC1 and playing all of them.

    I had lost faith in the BattleField franchise on the PC. BF2 was the pinnacle and with EA's changes to 2142 and their move to focus on the consoles, Bad Company 2 was the last "true" BattleField title. The BF3 & BF4 releases were graphically accomplished, but highly unpolished products (browser plugin for matchmaking) with less of, well pretty much every part of the battlefield mechanic.I had lost faith in the BattleField franchise on the PC.

The BF3 & BF4 releases were graphically accomplished, but highly unpolished products (browser plugin for matchmaking) with less of, well pretty much every part of the battlefield mechanic.
    So what has BF1 done to turn it around? Well, the matchmaking and game selection is all part of the game, not a bolt on, so it feels like a finished product. The game contains the whole interface.
    The single-player campaign is very enjoyable and is an excellent preparation for the on-line game.
    The maps are wide and varied with a good selection of weather, vehicles and mobile spawns. The game encourages teamwork and while not intuitive, the interface enables plenty of customisation for your player classes. I am lucky enough to have a top-end PC, so the game runs smoothly on maximum settings and looks amazing, but my sons both have older Core i5's with much cheaper graphics cards - however they are able to run the game at acceptable frame-rates.
    Overall the game is a strong move in the right direction, reclaiming the earlier glory days of the BattleField name.
    On the downside, there are currently few servers. Some nights you cannot get on a game. Why? From past experience it's most likely EA dictating who can host servers (and therefore pumping up the prices).

    Also don't expect any historical accuracy - it's "in the style of world war one" more than based on anything real. But to be fair, who was expecting it would be anything else?

    The game is mostly set in 1917/1918 and doesn't include (as yet) most of the major battles. So no Gallipoli (1915), no Marnes (1914), no Serbian Campaign (1914), no Verdun (1916), no Somme (1916), no Spring Offensive (1918) and no Hundred days (1918).

    The maps in the game are Fao Fortress (1914), Suez (1915), Monte Grappa (1917), Argonne Forest (1918), St. Quentin Scar (1918), Sinai Desert (1915-1918) and Amiens (1918).

    If you're a fan of the BF franchise, you'll enjoy this title.

    After around 10h in the game (only playing Operations and Conquest) i think i have a pretty good idea off what this game is about. Ive played every Battlefield game, except Hardline, so im familiar to what they should bring to the table.

    This is a really good shooter, the net-coding and feedback from the game is by far the best they have come up whit, and it stands in contrast to both BF2, BF3, and BF4 on that point - its a really big improvement. The sound is amazing like always, the same is graphics and details in maps, weapons and so on. The game is a beauty.

    Its also fun, chaotic and it requires teamplay. It got that Battlefield wipe, which we all love. The game fails abit to deliver on content, if you ever played Red Orchestra the Operation part (cool and fun, as it is) will feel abit doll after you've been through them all, and you cant help to think that some off the maps are not designed as good as they could have been when playing conquest, and we need more maps. I would not compare this to SW:BF at all, as its clear there are much more depth to this game, and a much more dynamic battlefield, where SW:BF just were a skin.

    All in all, a great game, that lives up to the battlefield name, but you cant help (yet again) to think, what it could have been without EAs interfering, and DLC hells, where the content comes in stages. Still, i would recommend this game to all FPS/Battlefield lovers.

    LETS START WITH THE GOOD
    - Beautiful graphics and sound
    - the new time period and all the maps, vehicles, weapons and gadgets that it brings with it
    - new game mode that is on par with conquest/rush
    - War air ship/ Armored train and Battleship behemoths
    - A good but short single player

    NOW THE BAD
    - The random bullet deviation on SMGs and LMGs, there is also RBD on semi auto rifles if you fast fire, I understand that they do this since its a WW1 game and they don't want everyone running around with a LMG but i could think of other ways they could have done this, such as increasing the recoil of SMGs and LMGs by alot, as it is i think the random bullet deviation takes some skill out of fire fights.

    - there is some work to be done with weapon balancing and i have noticed some weird lag with the planes but that should be fixed in time.

    well that's what i think about BF1, its overall a very good game but the random bullet deviation is consistently annoying and is pretty much my only big gripe with the game so far.

    The game was perfect at launch not like the disastrous launch of BF4.

    The graphics are absolutely beautiful! There is a little lag sometimes but other than a few occurrences the game always looks stunning! Plus all the building destruction just adds to the realness of the game!

    The multiplayer is great especially if you play with a full squad! You actually get rewarded for playing as a team and it is so satisfying! My favorite mode is the new addition called Operations where you battle the enemy team across multiple maps You play the round, win or lose, and then you move on to the next rounds until one team loses.

    The reason i gave the game an 8 out of 10 is because of the campaign. I personally did not enjoy it. It is essentially 5 mini campaigns with 5 different characters and will take maybe 4-5 hours to beat. I felt that there was no emotional connection between myself and the character i was using and it just felt dull. I feel that this campaign could have been great if they focused it on one character in the trenches to show what trench warfare was all about and etc I feel there was a lot of wasted potential for the campaign. That is my personal feeling towards the campaign but there are probably others out there who loved it and that's great!

    To sum it all up Battlefield I is a great game and I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys FPS games and is sick of the COD type games. If this game was based on multiplayer only it would be a solid 10 out of 10 but due to the lackluster campaign in my opinion that why the game doesn't hit that full rating.

    The last thing i want to do is thank DICE and EA for listening to the fans and giving us a game we actually wanted to play!!!!

    this is an excellent, polished game. the only reason i gave it an 8 instead of a 9, is because i just dont think these WW1 era guns allow for the best gunplay. and theres not that many guns to choose from vs Battlefield 4. of course that has more to do with the WW1 setting than laziness by DICE. other than that minor complaint, this is a great game. Titanfall 2 is still my favorite butthis is an excellent, polished game. the only reason i gave it an 8 instead of a 9, is because i just dont think these WW1 era guns allow for the best gunplay. and theres not that many guns to choose from vs Battlefield 4. of course that has more to do with the WW1 setting than laziness by DICE. other than that minor complaint, this is a great game.

Still thinking if I should get the premium pass even if it's 50 bucks. I will definetly change it up to a 9/10 when all things get sorted out as well as the premium pass (4 expansions coming up 2017).

    The problem is that the company is just disgusting. The company consists of different stories, and they are weak (the story about the tanker and the pilot is still normal). For the company to buy a game precisely is not necessary - that's a disappointment. I was counting on DICE,

    The main thing in the game is the multiplayer, for what was done in this game. The multiplayer is just wonderful! He liked me immediately! Replacement of the setting worked perfectly.

It has a LOT of interesting takes on the battlefield formula, like different guns instead of attachments, behemoths instead of levolution, sniper sweetspots, the bayonet charge, and this all makes for a fresh battlefield game that doesn't feel like a reskin of BF4.

    The game doesn't get a 10 because sometimes it feels a little too casual, like when you get demolished by elite classes or ass-raped by a zeplin, but you also get a lotta times in those elites and behemoths so it's not that big of a deal, and it feels more like Battlefront 2 (the OG good one) then it feels like Battlefield. I still recommend it tho, really **** fun game.

    Operations is so **** good, and it feels like the mode that Battlefield should be played on. It's just SO addicting.

    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.

    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.

Tactical shooter sure, fun factor sure, but although inspired by WW1 it leaves any semblance to that conflict far behind. In the end combat is Battlefront Star Wars with WW1 skins, only the power ups and jet packs are missing to complete this comparison.

    The game actually plays like WW2 on steroids where the majority of players uses either sub machine guns or automatic weapons, add very effective tanks an abundance of anti tank ordinance even at infantry level and aircraft, including heavy bombers, that have the agility and power to weight ratio of modern fighters, and the end result is cognitive dissonance.

    This feeling is only enhanced by the misguided attempt to make BF1 a multi cultural experience, driving this to such high level that in multi play your German squad can Be comprised entirely by black men. Now black men did serve in the Imperial army, but in Africa. If you want to offer a multi cultural experience at least give the player some choice.

    In multiplay I try to stick to rifles and only specific light machine guns, out of some historical sense of duty, but as the majority embraces exotic sub machine and light machine guns, this only increases the frustration I am having with BF1.

    I hope there will be some hardcore more WW1 oriented game play offered in the future - even it was just a single server it would redeem BF1 in my eyes.

    Very fun game. The graphics are gorgeous. Glad that EA is using the Frostbite 3 engine on many of their future games. But as much like all other FPS games, they're all the same. Rush, kill, rush, kill. The singleplayer campaign is quite short. The war stories campaign style I couldn't really get around to liking it. Would have preferred a single story through the entire play through.

Unfortunately, the game does have minor issues (e.g. laggy cutscenes, dumb AI, poor level design, etc.) and it seems to be even less authentic or realistic than previous Battlefield games in terms of pacing, the battles and the weapons – so much so that it's the first Battlefield game I really didn't get into.

    This problem of overpopulation of snipers has been extant since Bad Company 2, and EA/DICE have clearly not bothered to solve it. I don't think EA/DICE would fix this anytime soon - it's a shame when the game allegedly promotes itself as a team shooter. There's not even a class quota to address this.

    First of all, I have to say that I believe this is the first or second time I write a review. I love Battlefield series and I'm a BF Veteran. I played all the BFs (even BF Heroes) since BF 1942. My favourite games of the series are BF2 and BF4 (yes, BF4, am I the only one that really love that game?)

    Pros: - Beautiful graphics and immersion with that WW1 theme - Amazing sounds - Guns

    Pros:
    - Beautiful graphics and immersion with that WW1 theme
    - Amazing sounds
    - Guns and the gameplay feels very good
    - Now you can climb high walls and higher rocks
    - Nice melee combat
    - Weather changes and their impact on our weapons
    - Realistic animations
    - Destruction
    - Slower pace than Hardline
    - Airships, trains, etc

    Cons:
    - Gun scheme with duplicated weapons and zero customization totally ruined what they did on BF3 and BF4
    - **** customization options on vehicles, I want to choose, no to have a predetermined tank profiles
    - The bayonet idea is good, but it's very bad implemented, it's bugged most of the times
    - Maps are boring, too mainstream and too lineal, nothing impressive
    - They still copy-pasting the same buildings on all maps
    - They destroyed the boat system of BF4, almost zero water combat
    - Lack of accesories and gatchets (good they finally added a crossbow)
    - Crashes even more than BF4 on launch with latest GPU drivers
    - Battlepacks are just for weapon and vehicle skins
    - Battlefrontish style, looks like they copy-pasted some things. Looks nice, works bad
    - The new "spawn on vehicle" system totally ruined the immersion of Battlefield
    - They killed battlelog to make an ingame system with lack of options comparing to battlelog
    - Point-click-kill weapons, hip shooting sometimes is even more effective than aiming, lmao
    - Less bullet fall than modern weapons of BF3 and BF4, lmao too
    - Lack of character customization: no skins/cammos for your character. Cmon, we are on 2017

    It's ok most people think BF4 was **** on launch, but currently for me it's a far better game than Battlefield 1. For me Battlefield 1 is one of the most overrated games I played, I give it a 7/10

    If you don't believe I played both games, just search me on battlelog or origin, my id is: PriceBlack

    However, the game is lacking in terms of content, only 9 maps on release day and the 10th was added later (EA is fooling people to believe they are releaseing free DLC to make them stand out as angels). Way too few weapons, and the LMG's are like sniper rifles. The game sold well because of hype surrounding the WW1 setting (which is FAR from historically correct anyway...). The campaign takes 2-3 hours to beat and it's nothing special, only there because it had to have something...

    But the worst part is Premium friends. I bought premium pass to be able to play all the new maps, since I got bored of the old ones after 30 hours. Now (after me and thousands of others have bought it already) EA announces Premium friends, which means that if one friend in your party owns premium, everyone in that party will be able to play all the premium maps. As you might hear, I feel ripped off.

    Battlefield 1 is easily the strongest Battlefield release since the likes of Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 2 way back in the early 2000's, but don't be fooled by the First World War setting. If you've played (and didn't enjoy) the past few Battlefields, this is essentially a very similar game, only adapted for a historical setting.

If you've played (and didn't enjoy) the past few Battlefields, this is essentially a very similar game, only adapted for a historical setting.

    I really enjoy the First World War setting of the game. As a lover of history, it's a period that really doesn't get enough focus outside of the realms of dreary English Literature classes that focus on poetry. Battlefield 1 expands the vision of the First World War, focusing on more than just the muddy trenches of France and Belgium and depicting fighting across the world. This diversity give the game a great variety of colour palettes and maps. However, this game is NOT a realistic depiction of the First World War in any way. It borrows the uniforms, conceptual weapons and settings of the period, but it feels more like a multiplayer sequel to Bioshock Infinite than anything. If you want a realistic First World War shooter, pick up Verdun.

    Graphically, the game is very strong. Colour palette diversity aside, everything looks very crisp. The character and vehicle models are beautifully done, and many of the levels start with an almost idyllic landscape that quickly degenerates into a war torn hell as a game goes on. To top this all off, the game is insanely well optimised. Using a 2012 i5 CPU and an R9 290 GPU, I was able to clock around 50-60 FPS during intense firefights with Ultra graphics.

    The sound design and direction is also brilliant. There are varying filters put over the sounds of gunfire and shouting depending on the environment. Shots in external fields areas ring off mountainsides in the distance, gunfights in houses have a thudding bass to them, and rainswept trenches give off an eerily muted sound. In addition to some brilliant sounds for the weapons, it lends a great authenticity to proceedings.

    The gameplay-- whilst very much still a Battlefield game-- has gone through a revision to adapt it to the period. This has been met with mixed success. The main improvement is that the infantry combat in the game is the best the series has ever seen, a necessity given the move away from combined arms to primarily infantry combat with the odd vehicle. Vehicles are rarer but have much more impact due to the fewer means for infantry to destroy them. Previous Battlefield games always suffered from vehicle combat becoming it's own game and ignoring the actual battle being played out. The main failing of DICE on this outing was the questionable balancing of the class equilibrium. The loss of the assault rifle hasn't really been compensated for. Assault rifles in FPS games serve a very distinct purpose in gameplay. They are a jack of all trades, master of none weapon that are capable of engaging at all ranges. They ensure that SMG and Shotgun users don't wipe out swathes of people by keeping them out of range and they stop snipers getting comfortable. Without a range of mobile mixed ranged automatic weapons, changes should have been made. Without them, close quarters combat has become incredibly chaotic whilst snipers can only really be countered by cover or other snipers.

    The issue of balance is sidelined by the actual end product of all the effort DICE have put into the game though. Many minute to minute moments of mulitplayer combat could almost pass as scripted set pieces due to the dramatic feel of everything. For example, earlier today I was rushing a point with a few friends. As we approached the point, an enemy light tank appeared and fired at us. I dived into a house with two friends, only for another tank shell to blow the side of the house off and leave me stunned and wounded. At this point, an enemy soldier ran in with a shotgun to finish us off, only for my friend to kill him with a knife. The lighting cast the killing in shadows on the wall and it looked great.

    As usual, some modes work and others don't. Strangely, Conquest-- the staple of the series-- is probably one of the weakest modes on offer here. There never really feels like a frontline and games quickly degenerate into chaotic sprints from point to point. Frontlines and Operations are easily the best ways to play the game, and are luckily quite populated. These modes focus on only two points at a time, similar to Team Fortress maps like Dustbowl. It encourages teamwork and gradual progression across the map. and ensures that firefights are coherent but intense.

    Finally, the single player is not great. Although it has much more heart than the modern plots, most stories are only two chapters long and fall back on tired storytelling tropes. It doesn't even serve as a means to learn how to play the multiplayer game as two campaigns feature vehicle combat that plays out vastly differently to the multiplayer and one focuses on stealth mechanics that are absent from the multiplayer.

Sadly though, the WW1 setting is being done injustice by having too many automatic weapons and having too fast of an infantry movement speed. This makes the gameplay very arcady and COD-like. The weapons and vehicles feel more like WW2 than WW1, and the gameplay is even faster than it was in the good old BF1942 back in the day. Still, it captures a lot of the fun that I used to have with BF1942 in a contemporary game. Just a shame that the developers are compromising the look and feel of WW1 to the mainstream. I wish they would have just made a WW2 game if they were going to put so many automatic weapons in it. Sure, they existed towards the end, but 95% of the war was fought with bolt-action rifles.

    Special shout out to the Operations mode in multiplayer, which is less chaotic than Conquest, and is more of a simulation of real warfare, making you push towards enemy lines. Stringing together multiple maps in a narrative is a nice touch, and makes you actually learn something about the history of some of the WW1 campaigns.

    I have not touched the singleplayer campaign much, but the cinematics and voice acting seem very good. Sadly again, the WW1 setting is being executed poorly in making you an invincible supersoldier (except for the intro sequence). I know its still a video game, but it would have been nice to have you rely more on squad cooperation to complete the missions, rather than gunning down whole armies Rambo-style. A missed opportunity.

    Finally, the game is pretty buggy. Many people experience frequent crashes, judging by the forums, and DirectX12 doesnt work at all for me, and many people. At least it doesnt have major server problems like BF4 had, but it is still not great technically. Hopefully they will issue some major patches soon.

    PRO'S:
    - graphically amazing
    - sound design is great
    - Fun gameplay, Operations mode is great
    - Good amount of multiplayer maps
    - Campaign cinematics and voice acting are great

    CONS:
    - Buggy! (doesnt work at all in DirectX 12 mode for many people)
    - Movement speed is too fast, which makes it too COD-like.
    - WW1 is being done injustice by both single player and multiplayer gameplay.

    Well. How should I put this.
    It is fun. I mean it is extremely fun. But what do we like the most? Exactly! Lists!
    Pros: + Finally a nearly complete polished game at launch. + The Graphics and the Sounddesgin are so extremely good. It will give you orgasms. + Atmosphere. Its really nice for people who like FPS with a good War-like Atmosphere. + A EA Game without Micro-transactions.

    + A EA Game without Micro-transactions. I am not kidding. I was shocked too.

    Cons:
    - The Campaign is only 5 to 6 hours long and the Story parts have no connection at all. After the last Mission of every Part, it just pulls out and just throws some anti-war sentence at you.

    - There are very few Weapons and Gadgets. There are only 3 to 4 Weapons each with 2 to 3 variations, with seemingly no differences at all.

    - It is as close to WW1 as Wolfenstein was close to WW2. They used many experimental Weapons and there are nearly only automatic Weapons and only the Medic and the Sniper have semi-auto Weapons.

    As I said above it is very atmospheric and makes a lot off fun, especially the Operations are fun to play.
    But then again there are some Design choices which are very strange. It cannot be unseen that they took some things from Battlefront.

    It's between COD and BF4, a Battlefront reskin imo.
    Simple enough for a casual and fun enough for a pro.

    The fantasy wwi is ridiculous but not so important in a chaotic game.

    Overall a good experience, but i felt that the campaign was way too short.
    With all the different scenarios and battlefields in WW1 it really had potential to dish out a larger campaign.

    Good multiplayer game, good graphics, awesome sound design, only experienced 2 or 3 non-game-breaking bugs

The equipment used during the period was crude, and difficult to use, and it shows through in the game. Some of the guns own sites obstruct your vision. Almost every gun solely uses iron sites. It's worth checking just to experience it's authenticity. I wonder if it has any staying power. Expand

    Weapon balance don't exist, bayonet charge is more retarded than commando perk in MW2. The new feature like zeppelin, armored train or dreadnought can help even the weakest team win and I don't think it's good for this game and fair play.

Algo terrível é vender o resto do jogo em DLC's, é como se não comprasse o jogo completo, forçando-nos a comprar as DLC's para podermos experienciar a França e a Russia no jogo. Outra coisa ruim é a quantidade de armas iguais no jogo, com poucas mudanças entre elas.

I keep getting teleported under the map where I can just run around and not do anything. I also cant kill myself since my grenades don't work, so I either stay there until I quit, or until the match ends. Now, I'll give credit where credit is due. DICE has really capitalized on portraying the essence of WWI with stunning visuals and fun intense gameplay, but unless you have at least 2 other friends to play it with and none of you mind ridiculous amounts of bugs, then I can't recommend it. I don't hate the game by any stretch, but I wish that they would have taken more time to make sure that this game had less bugs and glitches at launch. Expand

    Perfect in technical section; graphic, sound, music. Has a great and involving history in most of the campaigns. BUT is an EA game, campaign too short, for the other half you need to buy a DLC, so stupid. A game with 6 hrs of campaign and a multiplayer that is the same thing, shoot, run, shoot, die, respawn, run, shoot, die, respawn... Well, I don't like the multiplayer of any game.

    Battlefield 1 tried something a little bit more different... returning to it's roots (even that the original games were center on ww2, but, ok). It didn't bother to compete with COD (in settings i mean), and it succeeded to be more "original" if we can say that.

    But even still, Battlefield didn't manage to be a great game, the end product is a kind of mixed experience.
    The games is divided into chapters or episodes, each one has a different hero and takes place in a different part of the world. Some missions will be on foot with your gun and some others controlling a vehicle can be a tank or a plane. As well some missions will have some large scale battles like the introduction level which is great but then the rest of the games are about infiltrating enemy lines and not being detected (if you want), that end up being boring.
    Visually the game looks gorgeous, the Frostbite engine manage to do a good gob at rendering large scale maps with full detail and destructible environments.
    Take on mind that Battlefield 1 is a CPU hungry title so... it will consume 100% of it's usage, in case you don't have a really capable CPU you will struggle with some FPS here and there.
