    Call of battlefield 5.

    This is no Battlefield. There is almost no vehicles and maps are very small. Its a call of duty game.

    Back to Battlefield 4 i guess...

    Are you sure that you made the game, and not the clutter of graphics, code and sound? This is not a game, this is a mistake! Mistake #34601.

    Looks Beautiful, but is buggy as hell, the gun play sucks and is filled with a disgusting political agenda that twists and rewrites the past.

    Genderfield with absolutely wrong history. This is totally not WW2. Game was awful but developers make it worse and worse. Not my Battlefield with not my TTK.

    This game look like to be created by a people, who never were on any history lesson. This game lies with it so much. After playing it I can think the Germans never even think about starting a war, Hitler never exists, and Germans never tried to dominate whole Europe.

    I really hope this is on the list of worst videogames of 2018 but I'll never know because it seams Metacritic can't make a working click-through list.
    As for those that bought the game for the "realistic war feel" despite handicapped women on the frontline, I feel bad for you that now they're patching it to make everyone bulletsponges because the noobs got killed too fast.

I should have listened to the users here and not the "critics" There is absolutely no redeeming quality in this game's multiplayer.

    It'd be a lot more fun if it wasn't full of annoying bugs, questionable design decisions, and a development team that doesn't seem to know what they're doing or what they want.

    I'll come back in a few months to check and see if it has improved, but I have looming doubts.

    The game is not as bad as everyone says it is, and it's not as dead either.
    There still are a lot of people playing it, I've spent around 58 hours in the game already... 12 on Campaing and the rest on Multiplayer. This is the only multiplayer game I can get hooked into it.. I've played all BF games but I can't deny that this is perhaps not the "WORST" but the Weakest BF in franchise..    The game is not as bad as everyone says it is, and it's not as dead either.

This is the only multiplayer game I can get hooked into it.. I've played all BF games but I can't deny that this is perhaps not the "WORST" but the Weakest BF in franchise..

    This game was flooded by hate specially because of it's political agenda **** and the biggest mess up that idiot EA CEO did by calling their community too uneducated to play or accept the new changes. So that should sum up the 50% reason of why this game is selling so badly and bad merchandising I guess...

    But I can tell you there's no such thing of robotic arms or prosthetics, nor black female nazis in the game.. I guess Dice / EA rethought about their decision and removed all of these in the final release.
    Yes you can still play with female soldiers, but only if you really want to, since you can customize your character now, so multiplayer is pretty fine for me and I don't mind that much.

    As for those who are looking for a more authentical historical representation of WWII forget it... you'll see no such thing in here and that is some of my biggest complaints on the game.. I guess this way of showing not so well known stories of WWII was not a good idea at all... they had everything to make the best BF game with Frostbite engine but they managed to mess it up.

    PROS -

    * Graphically amazing as always been.
    * As much as multiplayer feels like a little to COD for me... it still nice when you have those amazing multiplayer moments, with everything blowing up, planes fighting in the sky and infantry fighting on land while trying to complete the objectives. It gives the Battlefield feeling.
    * The new Grand Operations and Front Lines mode are pretty neat and intense. Although some people may not like it, I felt rewarding specially if you are playing with a balanced team.
    * DICE sure knows how to create the best sound design in a game. It feels realistic in everything from gun shots to explosions and other environmental sounds.
    * Both Character and Weapon Customization Features are pretty good and goes beyond than just changing colors like it was in BF1.
    * Very well optimized.

    CONS -

    - Unfortunately this game feels incomplete... BF1 felt more complete than this game, there's a notable lack of content here, less maps, less vehicles, less weapons, no other factions like USSR, USA and JAPAN rather than Germany and English (British). Everything just feels like it's missing something and all of that cause of Tides of War.. a new way of Dice / EA to release new content for the game in a certain period of time. Although I don't trust that kind of business practice that much.. I hope they make the best out of it.

    - The TTK is a joke.

    - The maps are not as good as in previous Battlefield Titles, the map Rotation in Multiplayer servers are bad, they just keep repeating over and over and people are getting bored with it. Twisted Steel, Rotterdam and Yellow Fields are the best ones. (My opinion).

    - No historical accuracy, which is a shame really...

    - Campaing / Singleplayer is pretty forgettable and short as hell, The only 2 Campaings that matters are (TIRAILLEUR and LAST TIGER) and when those two starts to get interesting they just end...

    - Multiplayer Server Browser is just broken.. as it always was since BF1, why don't you bring BattleLog back Dice and EA, seriously.. that was the best thing.

    - Lots of bugs and other problems that I've never seen in any other Battlefield game.. (Bad rendering, glitched animations, glitched guns and so on..

    - Doesn't feel much like WWII sometimes...

    - Tides of War feels like a way of telling you - "Yeah.. we removed the premium pass but in exchange you'll get an incomplete game so we can release the rest of the content that is already completed in our new business practice system from time to time charging you no extra for it..."

    I think that's all of my pros and cons, and as much as it hurts to see Battlefield franchise going this way, liking this game or not is something very personal and it may vary from person to person.

    Overall I don't blame DICE too much for the game being like this but EA. I had loads of fun and incredible moments in multiplayer so for me at least I can only recommend picking this game if you are going for it's Multiplayer only... anything else than that just skip it.    … Expand

    I'm amazed at how bad this game is. The gameplay is awful. The map layout is awful. The ray tracing? meh.

    I really enjoyed Bad company 2, and Battlefield 4 wasn't too bad either. But this took the same road as Battlefield 1, open maps where every time you turn around you are being hit from a different location. It's just a giant cluster f***.

    This game was a lot of fun when it first came out. The gun play was fantastic and was really rewarding for aggressive and strategic play styles. I also liked how there was clear progression for each class. The game was admittedly addicting, especially if you are a completionist. The game also is rewarding for squads that play the objective.

I also liked how there was clear progression for each class. The game was admittedly addicting, especially if you are a completionist. The game also is rewarding for squads that play the objective.

    The game has a lot of bugs though. Here are some of the bugs that still exist in the game:
    - Bad netcode which causes time-to-death (TTD) sequences at 1 or 2 frames
    - Getting stuck in the environment
    - Unable to jump over ledges that are practically 1 feet high
    - Unable to launch v1 and JB rockets and have half the screen blacked out
    - Cannot adjust assignments and weapon progression while in game
    - Not preventing spawns on squad-mates that are in combat, which leads to instant spawn deaths
    - No being able to spawn on points without clicking to a different point and clicking back
    - Slow loading screens when quitting out after a match has ended

    In mid December Dice updated the game with a longer time-to-kill (TTK) value, which means a large majority of the weapons require more shots to down someone. This change practically changed the game in the worst way possible. Instead of having fun and rewarding gun play, everything now is more spongy and promotes a more defensive/camping style. Before, if you flanked a team you were rewarded with multiple kills. If you flank now, more than often, the enemy team will notice you and take you down before you can finish more than 1 kill. This just promotes squads clustering up with other squads and "zerging" to one point at a time. Also, having a longer time-to-kill doesn't help new players because in order to down someone, you need more precise shots, which is something they may lack when they first start playing the game. So new players will just find that they can't kill enemies and they still die quickly due to bad netcode and by more skilled players that can shoot with precision. Therefore, these new players will just stop playing the game due to frustration.

    A large portion of the Battlefield community has asked Dice/EA NOT to adjust the time-to-kill, but instead fix the time-to-death issue which is associated with bad netcode. Dice/EA has ignored the loyal Battlefield community and rammed the TTK change down their throats, causing an uproar in social media. EA were hoping the change would please the casual new players during the holiday season, which it does not.

    Because the game is broken now more than ever and due to the lack of respect from Dice/EA, I'm giving this game a score of 1. This game can be salvaged if EA/Dice listens to logical advice. Your core player-base and fans deserve better.    … Expand

    Its not even that bad, just utterly pointless.
    Ofc its bugged, broken and comes with barely any content but I suppose that´s just what we have to expect from battlefield nowadays...

    The fact that its set in WW2 and finally features a warstory about the German side is a big pro, but unfortunately the only one. And even that is screwed as the game doesnt even mention the eastern front, the pacific or China... but thank god we have a map set in Narvik, seriously someone needs to get their priorities right.
    And talking about warstories, why on earth would you take a covert operation famous for being completed without a single shot fired and turn it into the story of a girl single handedly obliterating half the german occupation force in Norway? JUST WHY??

    And for the Multiplayer: One-shot throwing knifes and killstreaks straight out of CoD and an attrition system that tries to force squadplay but only ends up being annoying and increasing the problem of one or two squads of well coordinated players dominating a match to the point where its just not fun anymore to play when you are alone.
    It just feels like DICE couldnt decide between making the game more casual and making it more hardcore, tried to do both and ended up achieving neither.
    The game is not unplayable, but Bf 3/4 and even Bf 1 are just much more enjoyable.

    And then there is the whole problem of historical revisionism, with DICE pandering to neo-feminist agendas and calling players "uneducated" for pointing out historical facts... but that has already been discussed enough.
    It just adds another reason to not spend your money on this game.

    Luckily however all of this is not really a problem since we can just continue playing Bf 3/4/1 without really missing out on anything, or get World War 3 which is both cheaper and better, or Hell Let Loose,...
    Thats the beauty of the free market, if you dont like something you can always switch to the competition.

    I do hope they get back on track with the next entry though, as it would be a real shame to see Battlefield die because of this mess...    … Expand

I tried hard, but this is the most unplayable, laughable and content-lacking release in the series yet. It is an enormous letdown, which has less of everything that made the game good, and more of what made the previous games annoying. The worst part though, by far, is the balancing - with the new mechanics that focus on squadplay, you will be dominated by a bunch of players that actually do it. So far I've tried my best to play together, but it does nothing. The teams are unbalanced to the point where you get landslide victories in every match, getting annihilated by snipers and better-equipped players every time. This game is as annoying as it gets, has little to offer besides laughable bugs, and is also being changed randomly by DICE, especially in terms of the recent TTK change, which nobody quite understands.

    It’s far from being ideal but all the glitches and shortcomings don’t ruin the overall fun of Battlefield V’s multiplayer experience. Although the single player portion of the game is not bad at all, I would have been disappointed if I bought the game just for it. [13/2018, p.56]

    In Battlefield V we got back to WW2, but with refined gunplay and death system which works great. There are also little problems such as low number of maps and stability issues, that are taking the fun away, but nothing that can't be fixed.
