    Another 'awesome' game, completely destroyed the same old bugs, same poor net code. I shouldn't be surprised but some of the glitches are evident in other games they have published and subsequently ignored. Spend far too much time debugging the game rather than playing. Typical "were working on it" replies and no actual fixes.

    It's a very nice game. Good graphics, good gameplay and awesome features. Why I didn't give it a 10/10:
    It has a lot of bugs that should have been fixed in the beta... It is unfinished and by no means finished. I'm not getting that much crashes or issues. When it happens, yes, it's pretty annoying, but it can't make you give a 1/10 or a 2/10 or even a 0/10. I blame EA for what happens    It's a very nice game.

DICE is trying a lot to fix those issues, and I appreciate that. The single player is not the best, but I don't find it so bad. The real problem is that some people can't even complete it, and you need it to unlock the weapons in the game. The multiplayer is awesome when it works properly. So, in conclusion, BF4 is an awesome game, with an awesome potential, but it is held back by the bugs and the problems in the game.    … Expand

    If the game was actually finished the muiltplayer would be amazing and the single play would be better than average. But as it stands on PC I cant play the game because of the buggness of the game. Since I cant play it and non of my friends on PC can play it either it deserves the lowest possible score. In its current state its just another cash grab by EA and a stain on DICE.

    I've been a huge fan of the whole Battlefield Series and spent like easily 3000 hours playing, which is why im even more disappointed in Battlefield4.

    Its pretty clear that you buy the game mostly for the multiplayer the campaign is just a short compilation of stupid cliches and patriotism so just forget it (Oh yeah you have to play it to get all the guns in the game, the last mission even 3 times).
    The multiplayer is an updated version of Battlefield 3, that would be ok if it has gotten any better.
    At this point in time this is (still after 1,5 months) clearly an unfinished product, every patch changes the feel of the game completely so if you got used to the gameplay its like a slap in the face every three weeks and it is impossible to stay at a certain level at skill.
    The maps are not that bad but the game is clearly missing a good Infantry only map, the only thing close to that is Operation Locker but that one isnt called the "Meatgrinder" without a reason (too few routes, too linear).
    Levolution looks nice but in the end its just a gimmick and doesnt require any change of tactics, in the most matches the events arent even triggered by the players.
    The worst thing is the hit registration, it was not that good in BF3 because of client side hit registration, but in BF4 its beyond acceptable. At first there was the one hit kill bug then hits in the head would have been registered twice leading to your instant death. Trading kills was so common at a certain point it was simply enraging. And after the latest patch hit registration is messed up and sometimes delayed. If you know in which direction a player is moving you just have to shoot there and you will hit him even if the player model on your screen reaches this spot a short period of time later (this was tested in 2m distance) and even works through solid walls.
    Hit Registration wasnt the best in all of the Battlefield titles but this is simply unacceptable.
    In conclusion Battlefield 4 is simply an unfinished title with a lot of potential but the launch phase of the game has just simply ruined it, as a gamer buying a full price game we can expect a finished game (yeah it can be a little rough around the edges), but this is still in beta phase.    … Expand

Compared with CoD Ghosts, there is more flexibility in the gameplay and everything looks much better. Good effort, DICE! Would be great to get a few more SP campaigns as DLC's...

    However, no points for multiplayer. A total and utter failure so far! DICE, if you think I will fork another £50 for BF 5 you can think again. Unless you properly fix this pronto!

    And what is with the veeeerrrryyyyy looooong unlocks?!! It is too tedious, boring and if not fixed, is going to lose even more players.

    I hit this guy running towards me with 5-7 LMG bullets he keeps running towards me and kills me with 1 pistol shot!!! WTF?!! This is supposed to be a game, an enjoyable activity... When you die 9 times out of 10 (probably more actually), it is tedious.

    I am an very good CoD 4 player it is strange how bad I can be on BF4. Either PB is rubbish and these guys are cheaters or BF 4 is broken beyond repair!

    I had big hopes, considering the big disappointment that CoD Ghosts is. But is not worth paying £50 for a very short SP game.    … Expand

    I play BF online exclusively.

    I love: The graphics; they're beautiful. I max out with a single GTX760, no SLI. The map sizes; so far they've been huge. "So far" because I can't stay on a server long enough to get a feel for the maps available but I'll get back to stability in a moment. The game play, imo, is the same as it ever was. I've been a fan of the BF franchise since    I play BF online exclusively.

    The game play, imo, is the same as it ever was. I've been a fan of the BF franchise since BF1942 DEMO and having not played BF in 2 years (BFBC2 I never played 3) I was able to jump into BF4 and get straight to work with minimal drama.

    I hate:
    Dependencies. There're too many nonsensical dependencies between me and the game. I click on the BF4 game icon in my start menu and the first thing that opens is Origin, then Firefox, then I get to using the server browser as it occurs on the website which takes a while before finally, The Game [datface.jpg]. Very wasteful and aggravating. What happens when the browser has a problem? No game. But I'm not trying to browse; I'm trying to play.

    Immoderate capitalism. I paid about $100 for BF4 "Premium". I went online, chose a server and found myself in a queue. My position was 2 and beside that appeared "PREMIUM PRIORITIZED" or something to that effect which said to me that I'd been put ahead of someone else in line because I was "PREMIUM". This's a game, not a lesson in socioeconomics. I don't want to know that the server considers me a "preferred" player because I spent more money. Just put my arse in a queue and let's get it on already.

    Instability! I can get in a good 7 minutes between CTD (crash[es] to desktop). It repeatedly crashes and on a couple of occasions I've fallen with bluescreens. I've been building my own PCs since 1997 and I've bluescreened about 4 times since 2002. Twice playing GTA3 (2002-video driver incompatibility) and twice over the past couple days wrestling with BF4 (BCCode: 1000007e). Not okay.

    Win 7x64 SP1, Xeon 1230 ver. 2 3.3GHz, 16GB, GTX 760

    I know the game is till relatively new but I can't see this having been tested prior to release. QC was playing Bomberman 64 or something in the basement when they should've been testing. If I could play the game I'd have rendered of score of something like 8 or 9, I'm sure. In its present condition, however, this game is only worth a 6 7 at best.    … Expand

    After reading so many negative comments I was quite reluctant to buy this game. I was wrong. The problems I experienced so far weren't too big.

All these problems were present in every MP game I played before so I can't see a point in complaining about it. TheAfter reading so many negative comments I was quite reluctant to buy this game.

I thought it will be hard to do a shooter better than BF3, but again I was wrong. Maps are great, graphic superb, I didn't notice any problems with balance finally it is possible for engineer to shoot a plane down (eventually). It is somewhat resource-hungry I had to lower my graphic settings slightly, but progress have its price. Graphic is still brilliant though. People saying that levolution is just a gimmick. Maybe it is but it is an awesome, jawdropping gimmick. On some maps it can completely change the course of the battle.
    The low score is probably a result of people disappointed with a new CoD switched to Battefield and didn't find it to their taste (they get killed too often because of lack of tactical thinking and teamplay or they are focused on campaign mode).    … Expand

Even the browser plug-in crashes requiring task manager to kill off the browser. If a lot of my friends weren't also playing I would have uninstalled this probably the same weekend I installed it.

    There are audio issues like sound that cuts out, looping effects that won't ever stop for the duration of the map(The MCOM alarm on a conquest map is highly annoying), other random audio glitches like when you dive under water and come up and the sound is still muffled like you are under water still.

    The scopes can become out of sync with the visuals so when you don't have the 2x zoom on its zoomed and when you do have it on its normal. Dieing is the only way to fix this issue. The hip fire reticle (on non-hardcore mode servers) just vanishes and reappears whenever it pleases.

    The netcode is still abysmal and so far massively worse than BF3's from what I've seen. Even on servers with less than a 30ms ping.

    Vehicle physics are a mess. Jeeps bounce like crazy. Jeeps can be flipped over, taken off jumps 50-60 feet in the air and take no damage, but hit something going faster than 10-20 mph and they explode. I'm talking like clip the front corner on a tree and it just explodes. Tanks have quite literally no weight. You can launch tanks 10-20 feet in the air off some pretty tiny bumps. You can damage a tank by driving a jeep full speed at either the back or front and send the tank sailing through the air over the top of the jeep (What?!). The three tanks in BF4 are about 50-60 tons, pretty sure that isn't going airborne off a crater in the road.

    Anyone that bought it and comments on the single player is missing the point. That should really be seen as a new players tutorial than a stand-alone

    This is playing on a machine that's a several thousand dollars so its not my hardware. Playing the game on a 2560x1440 resolution monitor on medium settings and you generally sit around the frame cap of 200FPS.

    The campaign is just awful. It's more of the same "America Good Guys, other countries Bad Guys" that we've seen in other games. I would have rather had a campaign that actually allowed us to play on both sides of the conflict to actually see that the soldiers fighting for their banners were as human as the rest. Needless to say, I think I bailed from the Campaign about three quarters of the way through, because I was getting rather sick of it. It is quite literally the first game who's campaign I never completed.

I am trying to like this game but I am now starting to think this game is broken to it's core. EA is finally acknowledging that they have a problem as they have suspended all work on the DLC's to attempt to fix this game. I hope they can, but I doubt it.

    Major flaws -
    *Continued crashes even after two patches. Not as frequent but still there. (I have a titan, i7, win 8 etc etc top of the line rig 6 months ago).
    *Spawn problems, you have a black screen when you spawn where you cant do anything but others see you can kill you, leading to your death even before you "spawn".
    *poor spawn locations ie Daybreak spawns you in the middle of the road which compounds the above problem.
    *Lag in the servers that seems to increase the longer the games continues. Not sure if the net can handle all of the increased data due to Levolution. Was not a major issue in BF3 way worse in BF4. Being killed behind walls is way worse than BF3 especially after the china rising patch (for me anyway, starting to become unplayable).
    *poor hit recognition not sure if this is due to the built in lag, but sometimes even a still target at close range can't be hit. (even after the patches see youtube)
    *have not fixed the minor annoyances of BF3 ie rockets seem to disappear in air if the firer is killed before it hits the target. Almost impossible to shoot someone jumping over an object. Phantom walls/rocks which stop bullets. Phantom twigs on the ground which stop you in mid -sprint until you jump over it etc etc.
    * Major weapon rebalancing needs to be down Ie DMR useless at moment. Attack chopper useless (not a bad thing) This is no a big issue as it will be fixed over time as some weapons get nerfed or buffed.
    *numerous other problems see youtube, reddit etc.

    I still hold out hope this game will be fixed as I have loved all of the previous BF games, but still after 2 patches and almost two months this game is still broken. I still have to give this a 2 out of ten, but will happily change this when (fingers crossed) this is fixed. Previous review below.

    "Great game, great maps, great concept, but mega fail on execution, think SimCity. Every second to third game, the servers crash, leading to mega frustration. Once they get the servers up and running will be a great game, but they had the same problem in the beta and still have not fixed it. I would recommend save your money for now and look at purchasing it post Christmas when it goes on sale."    … Expand

    This is really BF3.5 and could have been another series of map packs, but hey ho, they need to keep the franchise alive and with the newer Frostbyte engine I suppose it's forgivable. As a game, it's actually pretty good, although I am aware of the balance being off when faced with the invincible chopper whores with their fellow player repairing the aircraft in flight.

As a game, it's actually pretty good, although I am aware of the balance being off when faced with the invincible chopper whores with their fellow player repairing the aircraft in flight. I long for the days of BF2 when they had to return to a base to refuel and re-arm. The snipers are as usual a menace, which is why a lot of servers limit them. The initial bugs were annoying, with random crashes and connection errors. It shows a disrespect for delivering a quality assured product and a disrespect for the customer. No other consumer product has the ability to sell something half arsed made, so why should you! Don't get me wrong, this is a very good game and is getting better, but could have been fantastic from the beginning!… Expand

    Battlefield 4 could just as well be called Battlefield 3.5. The new Battlefield features are only marginal improvements over Battlefield 3, but even as such it leaves the competitors way behind. Hopefully the bugs will be squashed soon. [Nov 2013]

    Even if multiplayer wasn't buggy, Battlefield 4 would still only be a barely passable installment in all respects besides the snazzy graphics. EA and DICE played it safe by providing the same thing they did the last time around, with another phoned-in campaign and only minor alterations to the online.

    Battlefield 4 keeps soldiering on in the same footsteps as previous games in the series. The lack of worthwhile news makes you wish for more. Dice stays in its comfort zone calls for explosions and not much more. The series needs to evolve or fade out.
