    LO PRIMERO Y MÁS IMPORTANTE: NO COMPRES JAMÁS ESTE JUEGO NI NINGÚN BATTLEFIELD POSTERIOR.

    EA se ríe de los usuarios permitiendo a los "cheaters" campar a sus anchas sólo para crear una comunidad tóxica y forzarnos a que compremos sus nuevos juegos a aquellos que aún queremos disfrutar de Battlefield 1. Aunque un server entero reporte, EA no hace nada. Y si bloqueas al "chetto" EA se vuelve a reír de ti emparejándote de nuevo con él la siguiente vez que buscas partida. Vergonzoso. Si bloqueo a un jugador lo mínimo es que no tenga que volver a verlo en el juego. Por esta vergonzosa política unido a los micro pagos es por lo que no debemos comprar ningún producto con el sello de EA hasta que empiecen a valorar más a los jugadores y menos al dinero.

    En cuanto al juego, es entretenido porque no hay muchos juegos similares. Visualmente es bonito y sigue siéndolo en 2021. Pero es un juego muy mediocre. El juego está lleno de misiones absurdas que debes completar si quieres tener todas las medallas. Las misiones no requieren de ninguna habilidad y sólo consisten en "grindear" cosas como 1500 reanimaciones o destruir un coloso móvil con una Kolibri (WTF?). El armamento es absurdo e insultante, sin ningún realismo ni fidelidad histórica. Todos los ejércitos tienen acceso a todas las armas y vehículos además de que dentro del armamento encontramos prototipos y armamento irreal que convierten el campo de batalla en un conglomerado de gente corriendo mientras dispara ametralladoras automáticas. Todo muy WW1 oye. Además de incluir vehículos y armamento "cáncer" para "tryhards" que permiten hacer cosas como aparcar un vehículo fuera del mapa para bombardear a placer a los enemigos que aparecen en tu radar. Muy justo y equilibrado todo.

    En fin, que no lo compres. Que le den por saco a EA.

    I'm not a fan of first person shooters, for some reason I can never really buy into being a soldier in a game and I'm more interested in machines, specifically planes and tanks.

    I've done a lot of searching but I cannot find the answer - does battlefield 1 give you any decent amount of content for driving tanks in tank sim fashion and using terrain as strategy? Thanks.

    In scenarios, we cannot experience the feeling of discovery by walking around beautifully designed maps. The game tries to get you to certain goals quickly. I finished all stories in 1 day. And it did not satisfy me in any way.

    But the game's storytelling is very good.

    Game Modes: Every game mode except conquest and operations is 12v12... You have this great engine that is very well optimized with the capability of 32v32 but you're not using it? This brings me to my next point

    Custom Servers: Where are they? Why can't people host servers with custom features

    Stat tracking: Compared to BF3, stat tracking doesn't exist in BF1

    Gunplay: I have no idea what they were thinking with these guns, a perfect FPS shooter will strive to make every gun relevant for specific purposes, no gun should be good at everything and no gun should be absolute garbage with no reason for existing. In BF1 each class has 1 or 2 guns that are superior in 80% of all situations, the remaining guns are useless or frustrating. It's like they had 4 teams working on the weapons, each team not knowing what the other was doing until launch day, just horrible. I didn't play BF4 or Hardline so I don't know how far DICE has fallen since BFBC2 and BF3 but they are currently setting new lows in FPS gun mechanics.

    Team balancing: Where is it? Maybe its because it's release weekend, their ranking algos don't have enough data yet but I highly doubt it. Why are level 5's playing with level 40's? And no these are not God Tier level 5's, they are how do I use my medkit level 5's.

    RE-skin of Battlefront: If you love Battlefront you don't need to play this game, unless you really like WWII games that are skinned to look like WWI games.

    That pretty much covers it. There are some bugs but not nearly as many as Beta so I think they did a good job of cleaning up the game. Overall I hope they keep adding a lot of features to the game so I don't get bored and uninstall. I'm very happy I didn't purchase the game + DLC because these guns are going to get boring fast.

    Here are a few cons :

    - The "Rock, paper, scissors" gun scheme has absolutely ruined the game : 64 players mandatory + automatic weapon high recoil don't help

    - Level progression is not rewarding (it should be more obvious when you level up, etc)

    - Boring slow tanks gameplay with limited visibility (same for boats, planes, even horses are not as fun as motorcycles in BF4)

    - No custom server at launch, then useless custom servers since admins can't change much

    - Most expansive game ever (160$ CAD for Game + Premium)

    - Too many bad maps, especially since tanks are boring : Suez, Fao Fortress, Sinai Desert

    - No real great maps (while Amiens and St. Quentin's Scar are OK)

    - Feels more like Battlefront 2 than BF5

    edit : 6 months later, I've played it for the free 10 hours, players population has dropped but it's still OK, the DLCs have been slowly released but they made a few improvements to the game that makes it a little better

    edit : 12 months later, the player population continued to drop, now only 25k on PC compared to 15k for BF4 currently, I wanted to try the new game mode Incursions (beta), waited for 10 minutes to get in a game but not enough player so I left then I come back and get a warning for "abandoning matches" ... come on EA ...

    However, the game is let down by the map design and the UI.

    Flags are so close together that this game feels more like COD than Battlefield. The maps - as seems to be the trend - are smaller than ever. Gone are the days of large BF2 and large-ish BF3 maps. Sinai Desert is meant to be a large map, but all the control points are so close, there is no point to the rest of the map. You can no longer stealth your way around the map to take a point as you WILL get seen from somewhere. I would love to see a stat for average time before death. this game is very much spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die. Many maps are Metro all over again.

    The UI is TERRIBLE. The main menu is awful. It take sages to spawn as you have to wait for the map to zoom out, centere itself, then choose where to spawn. Game selection is unclear.

    Further, DICE is listening to the loud few again by nerfing mortars when, if anything, they needed a buff. Supression is non-existent, as you can empty 100 rounds from a support gun at a sniper and they will headshot you without blinking.

    And, of course, bugs bugs bugs.

    On the surface a pretty solid modern FPS. If you are fan of these type of games there is nothing wrong with it and has good enough gameplay. Where it falls down for me is the branding of it being a WW1 game when it's completely ahistorical and really just a WW2 game with some tweaking.

    Puntos negativos:
    - Temática desperdiciada: Se tomó la decisión de poner 5 mini historias de 1 hora c/u que desaprovechan la temática de la Guerra Mundial, ya que cada una dura muy poco y no termina de tener inmersión. La campaña es cortísima y mediocre. Pésima decisión. -Cinemáticas a 30fps. -Imprecisión histórica y sobredimensionamiento de mujeres y negros, los hacen ver como si fueran casi igual en cantidad que los soldados más representativos. Pasa algo similar en Battlefield 5. Aquí la portada es un negro, en el 5 una mujer... Cuando las portadas deberían de ser del tipo de soldado más representativo (un blanco, y un nazi o ruso, respectivamente). Este es un error muy típico de la actualidad para imponer su agenda de "diversidad e igualdad", una falacia enorme. En el multijugador no te sorprendas si ves más afros o mujeres más que cualquier otro tipo de soldado.
    -Gráficas e interfaz que me hacen pensar que es más un Battlefront que un Battlefield. No me convenció a pesar de ser un gran salto gráfico.
    -Multijugador con poca variación de armas y mapas estándar muy sencillos. Retroceso respecto a Battlefield 4.

    En resumen: Battlefield 1 posee grandes saltos en lo sonoro y visual, y llegaba muy prometedor con la temática de Guerra Mundial pero que se queda en multijugador como, especialemente, el modo campaña donde desperdicia de manera categórica la temática de Guerra Mundial. Una temática con mucho potencial tirada a la basura, al igual que pasaría con Battlefield V. Gran parte de esa culpa es la introducción de personajes forzados, de querer imponer una agenda, y, sobre todo, de la pésima decisión de poner mini historias que no te terminan de llegar nunca, que son cortas y no tienen la inmersión necesaria como para exprimir la historia de la Guerra Mundial. He prejuzgado mucho al Call of Duty WWII, pero creo que aprovecha mucho mejor la temática de la Guerra Mundial que la combinación de Battlefield 1 y 5. Cualquier campaña de los últimos Call of Duty creo que es mejor que el modo historia de este juego.

    La nota es entre un 5 y 6, pero seré generoso y le daré un aprobado por los pelos.

    Decent and enjoyable shooter, even now. Good single player stories. At least half of maps are pretty balanced and playable, and beautiful of course. Tanks and planes aren't OP. No SJW contents and way better than BF V and even BF4. Speed of the game is acceptable for most players. But cheaters, unbalanced teams and remaining maps, which is not playable make this game average and awful sometimes.

    I think this could have been a really special single player experience if it actually was the length of a proper campaign. Some of the missions involving stealth, capturing points and infiltrating bases work exceptionally well, and are really fun to play - the shame is the fact there are so few of these its almost insulting and disappointing.

    Multiplayer, Loot crates for skins...roughly 90% of the playerbase has moved on to Battlefront 2 so unless you pick this up for free, or as part of the EA All Access program, then simply don't bother.

As for the gameplay, it feels like battlefront or battlefield 4 slapped on with a world war 1 skin. Gameplay doesn't even feel really authentic especially for a WW1 setting, if it were to be WW2 I would kinda understand. But World War 1 was just a bunch of dudes in trenches lined up and firing at one another... not jumping around running and gunning smoking 6 guys in a row with a automatic rifle. And also spawns are horrible. If someone is controlling gunship.... they can easily spawn camp the enemy team and the people below couldn't do anything about it unless they had an Anti air weapon. It really makes me wonder if anyone at DICE knew anything about World War 1.

    Also the fact people are ripping on Call of duty keep in mind the amount of times I've been quickscoped more times by scouts in BF1 than I've had in Call of Duty 4... and that's really embarrassing & quite annoying actually. And 80 Bucks for this game!!! (For me I had to pay 90 dollars) This game doesn't feel it even deserves to be 60 bucks.... the game is worth at most 40 bucks, and that's being generous. And the fact EA had the balls to charge people 160 Dollars for this mediocre FPS.

    Honestly the game isn't bad yes, they have taken a step forward after the trash from Battlefield 4, Battlefield hardline, and Battlefront. But it's not a huge improvement or a huge innovative process. It's just a bunch of dudes running around playing the game like call of duty. It essentially is call of duty but with vehicles. I personally enjoyed Battlefield 3 more than this game. Battlefield 1 feels like it doesn't offer too much for it what could have been, wasted potential and refunded. It's just your generic, cookie cutter FPS... nothing to see here folks.

When I point my damn gun at someone, and it's a semi-auto weapon, I want the shot to hit them!

    The game is dominated by smg's and lmg's. Lmg's are the most accurate weapons in the game (unless you're at a dead standstill with a sniper) which makes no sense. Playing this game just makes me want to jump back into BF4, which is what I've been doing.

    Many people will say I'm just bad, but I'm one of those players that makes it into the top 3-5 players every match when I'm trying. I'm also rank 83.

    To sum up: the game is beautiful and intriguing, but it's too annoying and luck/explosive-based to be a lot of fun.

    The graphics are excellent, the sound effects are top notch, the gameyplay is very good. Yet, Battlefield 1 is clearly a step backwards from BF3 and BF4. Features from previous games have been removed and there is an obvious lack of content. Where are the plethora of guns, equipment, assigmnemts and awards that the previous games had?

I'm really enjoying some aspects of this game - my review is focused on the multiplayer since I have no interest in the campaigns. It feels fresh, the weapons are generally balanced, the maps all look great, flying planes and driving vehicles is fun - I could not stop laughing as I rolled a heavy tank full of people down a mountainside without taking any damage on one map. That said, what is up with horses? Why can't you use regular weapons on them? Why is the trample detection so janky? I ran over a guy laying in front of me three times in a row with my horse and he just shot me off, which made me feel like a total idiot. Also, why did DICE make the rear facing machine guns on planes so powerful on planes? Those machine guns do so much more damage than the actual machine guns on the fighter planes that it is nearly impossible to destroy a plane you're chasing if that plane has even a decent gunner on board. Why do you have to unlock pistols for every class, and why do different classes have different pistols? They're just pistols. Let me get a decent pistol for the scout class; the class is already bad enough for close quarters combat. Anti air guns, even if they don't hit your plane cause it to bounce around as if it is entering a sharknado. I'm sure I could go on, but as I've indicated, the game is not perfect; and some of the 'balancing' Dice has done since the beta (the light tank, it shoots so incredibly slow and is so much weaker now that I personally find it nearly useless) has actually made certain features that were overpowered so underpowered that they've become useless.

    Sound design is wierd. For some reason you can hear battle from far far away, but not the heavly equipped guy running up beside you. Or a tank for that matter, until it's driving over your corpse..

    You don't automatically spot someone you shooting at, you have to press another button just to do that. Which honestly is ridiculous, and contributes to that artifical feeling.

    And that naging feeling that what you see is NOT quite what you get, like with previous BF-games, is here as well. You dying long after taking cover, etc, etc. Maybe these games needs to be this chaotic to prevent this from becoming too glaringly appearant.

    Battlefield 4 is better, deeper and offers more possibilities. BF1 has no veichles, no map destruction, no attachments (very few). It is just a casual shooter. If you want rapid action and shot anything that is moving without thinking twice, BF1 is the game for you. If you are a BF4 player, dont waste your money. It is just as bad as hardline.

    After I played the open beta for this game, I was SUPER excited for the release; the graphics were awesome (compared to anything I had seen at the time), and the gunshots didn't sound like you were playing air-soft. I was also really glad to see the building destruction I hadn't seen since Bad Company 2, and also the removal of the "gain skill to unlock" system as seen in BF4.
    After the novelty wore off, I began to see things. Many times, I've shot invisible boundaries while lying prone with my LMG. It is also quite difficult to spot enemies. The spotting range is quite small.
    Also I it is extremely irritating that the SMG is more useful than the LMG, since the SMG fires faster and does practically the same damage. The LMG's purpose is to be able to suppress the enemy, but without realistic damage, the ability to wound and knock the enemy off their feet, LMGs are practically worthless.
    I hadn't noticed until I bought the full game, but there is almost no splash damage. Also, a direct hit with an anti-infantry mortar shell does 65 damage. Mortars were often used like artillery to shell an area. It shouldn't be that hard to kill with them. Also, what's with the lack of anti-tank weaponry available to the support class?
    Speaking of support, Battlefield 1 does very little to reward the supportive. A normal kill, if kept to yourself, is worth 120 points. The max a spotter can get is 20, and it is very hard to be effective with a mortar without a spotter. And there is no reward for holding down a point. And in the off chance someone does come to attack, you rarely have the opportunity to put enough bullets in them before they grab their rifle and kill you one shot.
    Now about the Behemoths. I must say, these monsters are very impressive. Until you try to use them, They are VERY slow. They don't have enough armor or firepower to go that slow, if you're talking balance. They last about 3-5 minutes in a game and generally by the time they're destroyed the your team's score has gone from 400 points behind to 350 points behind. Hell yeah!
    The balance of the game is terrible. I have always been auto assigned to the losing team, which can never turn the tide, by the way, since the enemy team has all the high-ranking players and is also full, compared to our 3/4 full team.
    The only part of this game that is any fun is the campaign. Which is also very short.
    So overall, there are much better games to spend $60 on. I have standards on how much entertainment or use my money should give me. Didn't really make the cut.

    Of course, I pre-ordered it. Well, I've played BF 1 for a few months now. Less than a year tho. But I'm disappointed.

    The servers are too often laggy. Some classes (let's say Medic) have been nerfed but offer more stability and shooting rate than any sniper rifle. 2-3 bullets are usually enough to kill anybody.

    Still, the snipers lack anti-tank means. The K Bullets deal almost zero damage, and you can't carry more than 6.

    But that's not what disappoints me the most. It's not the lags. Not the messed up netcode. Not the never-banned cheaters you come accross sometimes. Not the lack of weapon customization. No.

    What really pisses me off is the fact that I pre-ordered an empty, unfinished game and paid 60 € (yes, I'm European) for it. To get the Standard Edition. The fact that you can now buy the Revolution Pack for the same price and get a full Premium Access to the game.
    And that, if I want to play the DLC, I get to pay 50 more **** €.

    Why, EA ? Just WHY are you punishing your trusty fans ?

    The community is dying. Battlefield 1 is dying. Players are deserting the game... and still, you won't offer us the ability to benefit the "Premium Friends" access to the new DLCs. Or even the ability to just pay, let's say.. 5 or 10 more € to get a Premium Pass. Nah.

    Well, let's hope for you that you don't **** up with Battlefront 2. Coz this will be the LAST time I offer you a chance to NOT disappoint me.

    Considering I've played every game since Battlefield 1942...

When you shoot, it just doesn't feel satisfying. The optimal range feature ends up being very frustrating. I.E. You shoot someone with a support machine gun at 50-100 yards, and it does 10-15 damage. Really? Am I shooting a .22lr at them? I wanted the game to be more like the gameplay of Battlefield 4. The bullet physics seem much more realistic. I feel like they could have pulled that off, but went with the super watered down cartoon-ie feel of SW:BF.

    The secondary reason: no joystick support. You can fly planes in single player and multiplayer. But this is yet another Battlefield / Battlefront game that gives the middle finger to joysticks. Judging by the complete lack of joystick support for every BF in the past 10 years, I'm certain they will never add support. It's super frustrating to super awkwardly try to fly a plane with the keyboard only and make longing glances at the perfectly functional joystick sitting on your desk.

    Maps are generally uninteresting and mix CQB and Open fileded warfare, unfortunately iit doesn't work, Whether you have raw talent or not the map design means your likely to be gibbed travelling from CQB to open warfare you'll have the wrong class/gear meaning you can't defend yourself properly, bearing in mind the objectives mean you have to travel or face losing the match.

    Audio is for the most part OK, music is nice. Weapons to me sound all very similar, nothing as distinctive as the M1 from WW2 with the ping as the clip flys out the receiver.

    Graphics think Star wars Battlefront, set in antique weapons. Nothing really to say here, it looks fine, still suffers the same old problems where you can see a head on top of a wall but you get shot through said wall as the models don't line up with logic, (long term problem of many FPS)

    Respawn times are far too long in my honest opinion.

    (Explained: most guns use a "cone-style" programing for the bullets, just like SW Battlefront, where any/all of the bullets fire in a completely random huge cone whether you are aiming down sights or not.)
    Typical Dice engine bugs/glitches.
    Campaign is only 4-5 hours to finish.
    GPU crashes with up to date GPU and drivers, and re installs.

    Conclusion:
    While the game was obviously not going to be a realistic portrayal of WWI warfare, they went so far out of reality for the campaign and single player, I honestly wonder why the chose to make this a WWI game. It honestly seems like they wanted to make a WWII game but chose WWI to maybe draw on the centennial
    .
    The campaign is a cake walk even on hard, with AI who are laughably stupid, and the story while good at parts, is insultingly short and lackluster, with absolutely no grounds in reality what so ever.

    I really wanted to like the game, I love war history and have always loved the BF series. But this game is in my opinion the worst BF game in years, if not ever.
    I was bored of the gameplay in 5 hours, and with the GPU crashes every 10 minutes in multiplayer I just refunded it (At least Origin actually has good CS and a fair refund policy).

    If you love the game, that is fine, I am glad you do, but to me this is not a Battlefield game, much less a WWI game.
    I have hopes of maybe a good WWII game next, praying for 1944/1945, DONE RIGHT.

    I feel like this is going to pull a hardline and die off in weeks.

I don't also like the Multiplayer, because when you got killed, you have to wait a long time before you can respawn again and that's what I hate mostly about it. I like games full of action and not something like this where you have to wait all the time.

You can only pick up certain enemy weapons. You run out of ammunition easily because even on Easy setting you some times must shoot an enemy 5 times to bring them down. The two sniper rifles I've seen so far are garbage. With one of the sniper rifles II shot an enemy in the chest with with open sights from about 20 feet away. And he didn't go down. Whether or not you get kills seems to be completely haphazard. I'll shoot a guy like 9 times with a rifle and he won't go down. Then I'll get 4 one-shot kills in a row from about the same range. I'll shoot directly at an enemy's chest and he won't go down. But then I'll just aim in the general direction of another enemy and he goes down right away. It makes no sense. There are explosions going on all around you with no indication of where the fire is coming from. I was hoping for a more realistic shooter. If you want satisfying gun play try Sniper Elite 4. The multi-player is really stupid but the campaign and co-op are great. And where's the co-op in Battlefield 1? Oh, that's right. No co-op. Most people will play this game for a little while and then quit. I finished my first campaign section and said to myself, is that it? Really, that's it? It lasted like 30 minutes or less. That means you can probably finish all of the campaign sections in several hours. Pretty content, but not much of it. Critics talk about how great the campaigns are but don't mention that they are so brief. No wonder EA started giving this game away. Shallow eye candy is a good description. Expand

    At Release better than Bf3,4 or Hardline but still too many bugs to call it a good Release. Still Netcode problems, bugs and other things that mess the Battlefield series up.

    As a game,one of the best shooter 2016, and one of the best WW1(2) Shooter in the last 5 years.

    Graphics are good. Modes standard.
    Long way to go, but maybe the next Bf is a better game.

    Pros:

Netcode **** as always sadly Singleplayer really boring Game feels like Star Wars Battlefront for whatever reason and the hud reminds me alot of it,too.

    To be honest it's a let down compared to what Trailers and the community was waiting for.

    Gameplay is meh, All weapons feel same.
    Graphic style is totally not mine, i hate that SW Battlefront ripped graphic style.

    It doesn't really feel like an battlefield game tbh.

    Wouldn't buy, played beta wasn't that amazing.

Battleye maybe. Otherwise, it will suffer the same fate as Rainbow Six Siege. -Unbalanced weapons. No stopping power. With some weapons, you need to shoot

    -Unbalanced weapons. No stopping power. With some weapons, you need to shoot the daylights out some guy to bring him down. The same goes for guys on horseback.
    -Bad respawns. On some maps it's not an issue. On others, it's terrible.
    -Aerial combat is a joke. Poor visibility, poor mechanics.
    -No penalties for friendly fire. Ridiculous. Grenades are being lobbied regardless. I've seen flamethrowers walking into a building and torching the place with lots of friendlies around. How silly. Same goes for Sentry Bots.

    DICE needs to address ALL these issues with some patch. Otherwise, frustration will drive many players away. I, for one, will stay away.

    The game engine is not polish at all, it might look good on pictures or trailers but it looks bad on movement, the optimization is trash because after some matches the game starts to use 100% of the hard drive. The game is too demanding for what it offers.

    The gameplay is rubbish and lacks polish, the match making is by far the worst thing in the game, 9/10 times matches are unbalanced

Then I figured out it's Star Wars Battlefront code with 'ranges' that you have to be in for each weapon, is why the guns feel so bizarre. Once you get used to the ranges you'll get a lot better but I just don't like the feel of it. I should never be too close for a sniper rifle to work, and shotguns are absolutely useless at surprisingly short distances (like 30 feet or so and suddenly it does nothing). And support LGMs should take more time to pull up to ironsights and make you run slower but should be devastating as hell when hit. Instead they feel weaker than a little SMG which is too weird to describe. I just don't like the 'feel' of it.

    Also there's a lot of cheaters you see kicked every round. OMG it's only been out for three days!

    Anyway I guess it has potential if they fix the cheating and tune the guns a bit. But definitely not my favorite shooter out of the box.

    Now about the bad moments in the game.
    Poor balance and domination of aircraft and tanks. If in the past parts one engineer could destroy the tank at a long distance. Now the anti-tank gun deals funny damage. The repair of armored vehicles is too fast. Aircraft can be brought down only from a stationary antiaircraft gun. Therefore, if your team does not have experienced pilots, then the enemy in the sky will feel invulnerable. Damage from anti-aircraft guns is too small and has a limited shooting pleasure. Poor customization of weapons. In fact, we have one weapon and 3 its modifications. Interesting? No! In the past, you could customize weapons as you like

    A very pretty game, those Swedes can really make a great game engine.
    But in a game so heavily reliant in its multiplayer experience its a shame we run into the same problems which hurt the previous installments. Mass grenade spam, spotting system an unbalance in vehicles, with short respawn times to have you question why it is you even attempt to destroy them. Most frustrating of all

Most frustrating of all being planes vs infantry, as unless you're next to an AA gun, there's not a lot to be done.. other than explode.

    The 64 player mode Conquest lends itself great in the more open maps, where others smaller in size can feel like a meat grinder, where you can find each team at either end of a choke point. To then be pushed back to deployment where LMG's sit stationed with bi-pods and ammo crates.
    This problem could easily be fixed with map specific player counts.

    The game in its current state and most likely final state as we await the release of bf5, is pure chaos. Its a shame it doesn't cater to the competitive scene.

    The multiplayer is the main attraction and they did it so badly. Maps are gorgeous but the structure design behind them is horrendous. The point capture fiasco is like a tennis match. If one team captures point A they will also lose point B resulting in nothing but people joining the defending team or simply leaving the game. Vehicles in this game are exploited beyond belief, people abuse the broken system and developers are doing absolutely nothing about it. To be specific we are talking about tanks that stay behind the front line spaming mortar fires and huge bombers in the sky dropping bombardment across the whole map making escapes nearly impossible. With the graphics this game could have been a phenomenal game about trench warfare and tactics, instead it turned into a grave pit for people running around the map like headless chickens and ignoring objectives.

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.

    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?
