    this game is amazing. The whole chaos and destruction vibe was intense and exhilarating. the large scale maps and fantasy ww1 setting made me fall in love with this game.

    I love the way Battlefield portrays war. In BF1 it was done very very well. The opening sequence where the game puts you in a few different situations, and every time you die you get a full name and the birth and death year. I think the reason they do this is to show you that the people who died are all real, they had life and it ended in an instant.

This is one of the most impactful things I think the game does, it really left an impact on me. WW1 was a horror, there are many horrible ways you can die in the game, I think the campaign is very well done.

    Graphics and level design are unreal. Battlefield does big open battles the best. The map destruction and the way it changes as the battle progresses makes this the best FPS game for me. In this game in particular, the mud looks very real.

    Multiplayer is very enjoyable as always

    I love this game About story the history of world war and history of the soldiers who fought for independence. I swear the gameplay of whole story is exciting. There is a history lesson in the very powerful war of that time in this game.

    Soy fanatico de la saga Battlefield. Y este juego superó mis espectativas, sonido y jugabilidad impecable, jugar sobre algo que paso en la vida real, le suma un gran plus, los mapas impecables, 100/100 siendo 2022 sigo jungandolo y hay muchos servers!!

    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.

    everything i wanted and more 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

    What a breathe of fresh air, finally back to the sort of genre that defined the franchise. Amazing graphics and intense gameplay, extremely fun to play all the way through. Fun campaign and a good selection of multiplayer modes, very impressed. Didn't like the weapon skins side of things, that is a bit tacky but aside from that perfect.

    WW2 game in WW1 skin. It has issues, but less than BF4 at launch. And DICE fixed BF4 eventually, I'm confident that most issues get fixed here too. Single player is short, not worth it unless you play multiplayer.

    The best multiplayer shooter to date, very polished. I was worried I would be disappointed in the guns with all the awesome attachments and scopes etc I'm used to but I was not let down. The graphics are amazing and for the first time I might not get CoD

    I purchased the ultimate edition of this game and don't regret it one bit. This game has an excellent multiplayer and with the current progress have removed a lot of the hackers.

In general the detail of graphics and the atmosphere really gives you the feeling of how the great war would of taken place. Not everyone had SMG's or LMG's to use, which is only inacurate at best but doesn't effect the gameplay. All in all the game is fun, the multiplayer is excellent which is why I buy most games anyway.

    BF1 is a great game so far. I am mostly reviewing the single player aspect of the game, I'll try MP next, but for now I am enjoying the single player section called "War Stores". There are many good things about the gameplay - at the core it is a very solid FPS shooter game. The WWI setting means the weapon are inaccurate, machines unreliable.

There are many good things about the gameplay - at the core it is a very solid FPS shooter game. The WWI setting means the weapon are inaccurate, machines unreliable. The gameplay is more than I expected - not just aim and shoot on rails, there, vehicles, various approaches to an objective and my favourite part so far - the tanks.Being a crew member of a tank in WWi must have been a horrible experience and BF1 gives you a very accurate depiction of that.
    Another thing that the game highlights very well is the cruelty of the war - you play a little and you get shot and die, like so many did on the battlefields of WWI.
    I give it 9/10 as there are a few nitpicks for the PC version - there's 0 advanced settings in game such as AA modes or SSAO etc - you can tweak that through Geforce Experience but it would have been better if there was a setting in game. THe game doesn't lose a point for that as the engine is very well optimised and I get >100fps on GTX1080 at 2560x1440 Ultra settings all the time.
    At the moment, according to the game, I am 'offline' (even as I am writing and posting this review). I have still ways to go before I finish SP campaign, but it seems that the servers have died under load, at least in my region, so minus 1 point for that, let's hope they resolve it soon enough.
    Another thing I don't like is the need to have Origin client running - the pre-load crashed 1/3rd through and I had to start from scratch. I have hundreds of games on Steam and it's a shame that EA insist on Origin.
    Overall a very good game and worth the admission price and a few hiccups.

Vehicles also are great fun.
    Cons - VERY limited weapons. This is one of my biggest gripes with the game alone (hopefully fixed in the future) with how EA does their Expansion Passes now, deliver half a game, then part out the rest over the next 6-12 months $$$. Balance, just check youtube (OP snipers and a certain shotgun with ridiculous 1 shot-range) this can easily be fixed in a patch or two thankfully we've already seen a couple of. That would change my 8.5 to a real 9.

    over 500 hours for BF1. More than 1 year since the release. Yes, the game suffered a lot from its basic flaw on gameplay/gunplay design. Ridiculous balance issues are still real. PC user base was almost dead. However, since last two patches, BF1 is on its way to be another masterpiece to be played and remembered for many years as classics. New DLC maps are fortunately and unfortunately wayover 500 hours for BF1. More than 1 year since the release. Yes, the game suffered a lot from its basic flaw on gameplay/gunplay design.

Operation server browser simply saved the game from death. Operations of French DLC are WWI immersion at its finest. You wouldn't believe me but it's true. Verdun Heights - Fort Vaux is one of the best things i've experienced on my entire FPS gaming. Of course, premium is a joke, but fortunately and unfortunately i can say, just buy premium and play new great french, russian maps. More new maps are coming alongside vital movement patch. These 10 maps worth more than anything on the market. Great job DICE and keep up the good work. Expand

    Battlefield 1 is really good. Definitely a solid shooter this year. The graphics are amazing in this game, and the game runs pretty decent on my pc. I get 50-60 fps on high settings in 1080p.

Despite the length of the story, it's still better than the BF Hardline and BF4's campaigns. The online multiplayer is the only reason why you should buy this game. Things get really crazy when you have 64 players, just so much chaos going on...which is why I like the Battlefield series more than Call of Duty. Expand

    BF1 is a fresh take on the Battlefield franchise. The new WWI setting is a really nice change of pace from the normal modern shooters the market is drowning in. Like the previous BF games this one encourages teamwork and tactics rather then just running down a hall 360noscoping people.

    The game looks fantastic, the mud that collects on your weapons after coming under fire from enemies
    BF1 is a fresh take on the Battlefield franchise. The new WWI setting is a really nice change of pace from the normal modern shooters the market is drowning in. Like the previous BF games this one encourages teamwork and tactics rather then just running down a hall 360noscoping people.

    The game looks fantastic, the mud that collects on your weapons after coming under fire from enemies is a really cool touch. The guns, for the most part, are pretty darn realistic to their real counterparts. The game is new and some need to be nerfed or buffed, but Dice is pretty good at doing that. The game feels full at purchase, at least it did for me.

    Now before we get to multiplayer lets talk Campaign. BF1 tells the story of WWI from a number of different characters. The campaign's stories are great, though sadly there are no levels from the other side's point of view. I am hoping that the German guy aiming his rifle at the first character will turn out to be the narrator of some expansion campaign or something in the future, but that is not set in stone. The campaign for sure is Multiplayer training, each story teaches you different styles and tactics for playing online. There is a tank heavy campaign and a plane heavy campaign, that are both quite fun, engaging, and teach you how to use the war devices.

    Multiplayer is great, I really have not had many issues with the launch of the game. A few guns are too OP at the moment and could a good nerfing, but the game plays very well. The maps are pretty fun. And the new objective mode is fantastic! If you have ever played Red Orchestra it is pretty much that game mode! Imagine a conquest where you really have to work together to push forward into enemy territory or push back the assaulting armies.

    PLAYABLE ARMIES:
    AMERICA
    ENGLAND (And it's buddies)
    ITALY

    GERMANY
    AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN
    THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE

    I would like the ability to play other armies involved in WWI but with map packs and expansions in the future I assume that others will be in time.

    OVERALL: I would recommend this game to anyone who is big into WWI. It brought me back to the age of classic shooters, and that in itself is amazing!

    Late comer. Purchased during Christmas sale. This game is awesome! I don't like BF3, I like BF4, and I like BC2 the best. This game, is comparable to BC2.

    Realistic? Not sure 'bout that with all those automatic weapons.. More like WWII to me. But hell the game is fun, Most conquest maps are great except for 2 maps - they are for puxxy snipers only. In conquest everybody will be busy

    Most conquest maps are great except for 2 maps - they are for puxxy snipers only. In conquest everybody will be busy doing something and there is no meat grinder locations where everyone just stuck there spamming explosives. There are enough covers so that sniping puxxxies will not dominate the map.

    Rush mode is fun again, although I kinda miss the 32/48 ppl server.

    TDM is now **** not enough ppl in the server to kill, and there are ppl leaving all the time.. We serious need 48 ppl TDM back again.

    Operation is kinda okay to play. Expect meat grinders here and there.

    Graphics are epic as always. Single player mode is awesome and story rich. No game breaking bugs so far. There are Hackers though, without private servers, it is bad - nobody can kick them out. Fxxk the hackers.

    All in all 9/10.

    Great game! Perfect visual effects and nice gameplay. A little bit casual (close to SW: BattlefronT), but it´s not so important. Maps are beautiful with many details and all buildings you can CRUSH! 9/10.
