    The game is not a simulator but it is dripping in so much authenticity and historical relevance that it makes for a wonderfully rich experience. It is this 'richness' that is why I can recall all of the fun moments I had playing BF1942 when I was younger. This game is the perfect balance between fun and play-ability, yet it is gritty and emotive.

    Positives: - Incredible well optimised.
    The game is not a simulator but it is dripping in so much authenticity and historical relevance that it makes for a wonderfully rich experience. It is this 'richness' that is why I can recall all of the fun moments I had playing BF1942 when I was younger. This game is the perfect balance between fun and play-ability, yet it is gritty and emotive.

    Positives:
    - Incredible well optimised.
    - Graphics are jaw-droppingly deep.
    - Combat is varied and no one person has the best load out.
    - Guns are a joy to use and their weaknesses become charms or quirks to master.
    - Vehicles are polished to look at and to operate.
    - Weather effects make for a dynamic situational combat. (big maps can become close quarters)
    - Arsenal variety: Gas grenades, Limpet mines, Hatchets, Trip-wires, Air-motors, the list goes on...
    - ...Pigeons.

    Negatives:
    - Multiple variations on the same weapon seem a little misplaced.
    - Class rank unlocks are strange - lots of reward up to 5 and then nothing until 10.
    - Holding to skip revive time is a little frustrating but I see how it benefits the medic class.
    - Price - It's high but for all you get, the phrase 'just take my money' comes to mind.
    P.S. Hold off on Season Pass - Deluxe is enough.

    I wanted to give the review a 9.5 because it is much closer to perfect than a 9 would have you believe. The critic score of 88 is spot on.

    Source: I own the Digital Deluxe Origin copy and clocked up 80 hours thus far.

    I was a bit on the fence when I played the BETA, I'm not sure why they picked the worst map for that. After seeing the reviews and picking up the game, I can say it's by far the best BF game yet! The 4 distinct campaigns are fantastic, and the new multiplayer gamemode "Operations" is the best thing to ever happen to the BF series.

    Just the shot in the arm this franchise needed. Ok it's not accurate to the tech of 1911-1918 but who cares? The change up in weapon accuracy and vehicle speed/firepower was just what BF needed.

    Best BF experience since BFBC2. This game is one of the few online FPS experiences that actually has feeling/emotion in it. From the flames burning up a screaming shotgunner to the bomber pilots jeering to each other after a successful bombing run. Well worth the money and if you are a fan of FPS or multiplayer you should pick it up.

    I also to want to mention how incredibly well optimized this game is. I have a 1070, and an i7 4790k, and obviously play on ultra without breaking a sweat, but the GF has an older gen i5, and an HD radeon 6900 series, and is able to play on low at ~60fps. I honestly have no idea how they pulled it off. It's miraculous. I would contend that the game is possibly the most well optimized game, pound for pound, that has been released in the last 9 years.

    The multiple game modes are pretty fun as well.

Heard there were new Nvidia drivers released just today that increase performance. If that is true, then I am even more impressed with how well optimized this game is compared to everything else we get in the market. This is how games should be developed and made for PC!

    Gameplay: Those will complain it is a knock off of SWBF or claim Battlefield 4 is way harder. Have not quite understood Battlefield 1. Battlefield 4 struggled with netcode and while I adored the game we have to remember not to mistake difficulty with optimization. Something can feel harder and it is because poor optimization.

    Battlefield 1 has a huge improvement to netcode and when you shoot it registers very well. Gun balance feels pretty on point. Scouts and assault all have their place. With 25 hours in I can say that the servers I have been on have seen a pretty good balance. If you do not see that balance, you can always try another server as this game is crazy populated with players.

    As far as if this is similar to SWBF, it really isn't. The gameplay feels completely different. And, I will be honest if the game was like SWBF, I am pretty sure I will be extremely disappointed because the gun play in SWBF is disappointing.

    Sound Design: Really on point, and what blew me away when I played this is how much the audio changes depending where you are at. When on Quentin scar and you walk on the huge bullet shells and hear them rustle was quite amazing!

    (NO SPOILERS) Single Player: Keeping it simple, it was heartfelt. I respected the approach they took, and one of the first actually FPS shooter campaigns I have really felt invested in awhile.

    Overall: This game is a huge win in my book, it delivered everything I expected and honestly much more. From the extremely stable release to the huge amount detail and care they took into the game shows a lot. You can tell this project was made out of love and for that I love this game. There is always something we can nitpick and complain about. But, where we are headed and tons more DLC I say this is my game of the year. Thank you DICE for your hard work, it really had paid off and the community can definitely see it!

    The sound design and graphics of this game are astonishing.
    But not only that, It is the first Battlefield game I can call home, and I've played them all. It's not as casual as Battlefront, it is still Battlefield and has its level of complexity, which I love because its not super realistic but also not too arcady; Right in the middle. Do not expect accurate depiction of World war 1,

    Absolutely brilliant and immersive. Plays awesome on GTX 1060 with ultra setting, visuals are great but the sound design is equally beautiful. The game is unforgiving for people who dont like team play. The addition of automatic weapons makes the gameplay fast, which may or may not suit all the people. Overall, it is the best remix of WW1 setting which a person can experience.

    Finally the "Battlefield" I've been waiting for. Though battlefield 3 and 4 (for that matter bad company 2) were good games, I just never found the "modern" battlefield as interesting. People sitting 10 man strong on a rooftop with snipers, or the ridiculous strength of tanks in the previous titles made the maps feel empty.

People sitting 10 man strong on a rooftop with snipers, or the ridiculous strength of tanks in the previous titles made the maps feel empty.
    Either people were hiding for tanks, or trying to snipe the other snipes from 2 miles away.

    In Battlefield 1, the amount of people you can have firing at you if you poke your head too high is so intense. The weapons are fine tuned enough so that even snipers have a valid reason to push up a little closer, and veichles aren't stupid OP like they were in resent battlefield titles.

    I would like a few more slots for planes in the game though, that would be an awesome feeling to have 10 planes on each time flying overhead all the time. I'd still like to see 64 teams on either side, instead of "only" 32 on each - that would be the dream! But, I'm happy Battlefield 1 took a step back to a time before tanks that could headshot you from miles away and focused more on the soldiers.
    And the visuals is as always stunning, battlefield took battlefront and printed an awesome looking game into a game with fun gameplay.

But above all means, the main reason why I think this game is basically perfection is because of its setting based in the times of WW1, and this game completely nails the time era with the variety of weaponry it has to offer, the visuals of the maps/model designs and the single player war stories. In my opinion, the war stories were amazing, yes they may of been rather short in length but they certainly had quality and quality always is better than quantity. Battlefield 1 definitely supplies the best single player campaign since Bad Company 2. However, the multiplayer is absolutely stunning and the is most certainly the best part in the game which is quite obvious, it's a bunch of fun, its engaging and its the best to play with your mates. In conclusion, Battlefield 1 is truly a badass video game and its one of my all time favorite shooters. It's definitely superior and creates major competition to any FPS games out in the market especially the "Call of Duty" series. Expand

    Battlefield 1 takes away a lot of the nonsense added since BC2 BF3 BF4 & adds a lot of things that make sense, for example being able to squad queue or premium friend queue (allows people without DLC to queue with people who have it) or spawning away from a flag if its under attack, also spawning in general is awesome as you get a proper situational awareness from the map to the ground

    basically if you weren't a fan of choppers, long range mortar, flir etc then this is the Battlefield game for you

    The single player is pretty impressive as well if though a bit short

    Visual Marvel by EA and Dice' I request Gamers to Ignore IDIOT Call Of Duty Worshipers' writing and comparing with Battlefield Franchise;

    CAMPAIGN MODE REVIEW:

    Best In Game Campaign I have ever played and Followed by a Strong, Versatile and Emotional tipped story line. The detail Study done by game creators and analysts have simply created a marvel';
    For Example: The Ottoman Armored train shown is precisely similar to the Actual one making it visually great to see a structure like which would have been a gigantic piece of destruction.

    Back to campaign, its Simply addictive, you choose your own Story mode is also great, UNLIKE other FPS Campaigns where the Creators want Gamers to Go where they want and Follow Long Stretched Stories sticking to a single HERO of the game which in real time do not happen.
    You choose your own story mode, play and if want to switch for a change, you can do that anytime switching chapters.

    KEY POINTS:

    - Immersive Game Play
    - GRAPHICAL TREAT with Great Visuals
    - STUNNING gameplay
    - Best Action Shooter
    - Real Time Effects and AI

    Only CON:
    - Short Story / Campaign
    - Nothing else
    ----------------

    MULTIPLAYER MODE:

    From My Experience and Years of gameplay since battlefield 1942' The multiplayer has done a lot and even in previous games, EA tried to bring something new always,

    With a lot of great game modes, EA has done a good job with good multiplayer and nice battlepacks coming along.

    Only Con for multiplayer is the Drops received After hours of gameplay, i guess the Owners should give away battle-drops often instead of taking a chance and giving away a single pack after hours of gameplay multiplayer mode.

    Apart from this , its a Visual marvel from the Battlefield Franchise, Keep Going EA;

The singleplayer war stories in the game have a nice touch to them as well, giving the perspective of different ww1 soldiers and battles.

    The map design is fantastic, the colors are vibrant, the weathering realistic and this is where BF1 really excels. The sound effects are incredibly detailed and it's tremendously fun to down enemies with bayonet charges.

    Operations and Frontline are really the stellar modes of this battlefield, capturing the essence of the struggle between large armies.

    The War Pigeons, Supply Drop and Air Assault are rather unexciting though and feel more like an afterthought to fill in the mode count.

    Overall, BF1 sadly feels like a peak Dice has reached before descending with less impressive titles such as the ugly Battlefield V, where every color feels barren and almost a shade of an always present grey.
