    Battlefield 1 is a great game, but the people giving it 10's are crazy or haven't played the game long enough. The single player is a solid 10.

    Multiplayer unfortunately is about a 6, which is where you will spend most of your time. You've still got the great graphics, but in terms of actual gameplay it too often feels like a just whole bunch of chaos. War, of course, is chaos... so in some sense I guess that works, but the gist of what you do in every multiplayer scenario is run around randomly until you get killed or see a hint of moment and start shooting. There's sniping and healing, etc... but for the most part you play for a short burst until you get clipped by a random bullet. It's really frustrating when you start taking damage and can't figure out where it's coming from which happens constantly, and if you run around a corner an another enemy appears, skill takes a back seat to luck... what weapon are you carrying and how twitchy is your finger.

    In Conquest mode, for example, you can choose to spawn on other teammates or certain spawn points, and before you have even turned around or walked two steps you are shot in the back of the head, and forced to respawn again. You might run out of a building and a bomb from a plane drops on your head... respawn again. Spawn in a tank, but the tank is at 10% health and you're suddenly dead again. And don't forget the enemies can spawn anywhere too... You might round a corner only to have someone spawn behind you. There's nothing you can do but take the death.

    You will never feel like you are in control of the game or that you can just play better to change the outcome. Nor do you ever feel like winning means anything. You'll continue to play to get more weapon upgrades, but at the end of the day whether you are at the top or bottom of the scoreboard means nothing. Your team feels soooo impersonal.

    Basically multiplayer feels very "casual".... It's really cool to chill and play like you're in a real war, but the randomness feels unrewarding and wins feel unrewarding.

    Don't get me wrong... Battlefield 1 is a solid 7 great game. But it is far from a 10... It's a war simulator with very realistic graphics and effects. It's multiplayer is fun to play, but begins to get boring due to your lack of control of outcomes and generally unrewarding feeling you have after each match.    … Expand

    This is LITERALLY the exact same game that DICE has been shoving down our throats for years. Uninspired combat, awful weapons, and the ever so lovely "run run run die" style that makes pretty much all BF games terrible.

    Everything you could want in a shooter (minus jetpacks which no one really wants). Visuals are unlike anything before it as close to perfect as you could ever get.

Scoring system in the game is horrendous.. If one team gets up a couple hundred points early on, it is impossible to overcome.. You almost always know which team will win by the first 5 minutes of the game or so. The matchmaking is horrible, which has always been true of Battlefield games... You'll start a game with 30 people on one team, 20 on another, and the 30 person team builds a big enough lead before the other team fills up to guarantee them a win. Lastly, the guns kill too fast, which has been a trend of Battlefield games over the last 10 years..It's not something I appreciate.. I don't like getting shot in the back with a couple bullets and dying before I can turn around and engage the enemy.. I guess I'm in the minority in this thinking, but it's extremely frustrating to me.. I don't get any sense of accomplishment when I walk up behind a dude and waste him in 2 seconds either. Still a good game though.… Expand

    Some things need to be changed though:
    Reviving someone should be 100 points to encourage people to do it more often, or just make it exactly the same as in bf hl.
    The medals shouldn't need tracking or have different stages it should just be possible to do it all at the same time.
    Assist counted as kill needs to be lowered to 75% of health like in hl.
    The rest of the game though is brilliant or good enough despite those small setbacks and the core gameplay is fun and exhilarating.    … Expand

    Something that DICE had not accomplished in Battlefield: History. It is certainly one of the best in the entire saga. The multiplayer as always the best. Only the sigle player is to short. An excellent game, makes clear that those who do not know the story, are doomed to repeat it.

    In the new installment of the Battlefield franchise, “Battlefield 1”, it is a first person shooter, and the events of the game takes place in WW1.

Instead of modern time warfare, the franchise decides to go back 100 years where, “the war to end all wars”, begin. Now to many people, it may seem to them that it might be too boring because WW1 was very low on technology, weapons, and gear back in the past. But seeing the gameplay and the trailer, it is unbelievably fantastic and stunning. Just seeing the gameplay and improvements makes the gamer get into the action and play more. The big question, is this the best Battlefield game ever made of the franchise? When the first trailer came out, I watched it and first thing I thought was, “Wow this is WW1 I’m seeing”. And also seeing the gameplay makes more exciting and intense. And this totally made me buy the game, and playing is breathtaking. The game was fantastic, you get to play in the trenches, dog fights, ride horses, improved graphics, the savagery fight, and more destruction and chaos. Also multiplayer is really great, my favorite mode of playing multiplayer is operations, it’s a large scale map, and you either need to defend your sectors or conquer it. If you are someone that is a gamer and loves to play first shooter games but not those future fake warfare stuff, then I recommend buying this game. I think people would love this game because this is actual warfare that took place 100 years ago, and this game is very realistic to play. My preference of games, I like the realistic war games, either something in the past or modern. Now like future wack games like call of duty, to me they took it into future games, and that’s when I lost my favor of call of duty. So this makes Battlefield 1 the best game made in the battlefield franchise.… Expand

    When I first got into Battlefield (Bad Company), I never saw myself using an armored trooper with a Maxim machine gun, dropping bombs on populated sector or charging into a hail of gunfire to cheat death or fall.

Battlefield has always been about bringing the intensity of the combat, newer things to flesh that experience out. Battlefield 1 does it in the best way possible, all out war and large scale operations and vintage (mostly historically accurate) weaponry.

    For new players, forget what you know about every other shooter. Battlefield will train your failures into success the more you play it. At first, you may charge into battle hoping to find another to kill. At first, you will realize, that you are gunned down before snapping a shot in. So you die and respawn, begin to realize that moving too much is your enemy and that proper teamwork, accuracy and attacking carefully is the name of the game. (provided you aren't in a tank, which does change the dynamic slightly.) Second, you begin to understand what the hell classes/gadgets are and how they improve how you fight and survive longer.

    Once you figure out that, you'll realized what you've missed all these years and realize that Call of Duty was the wrong shooter to play. Battlefield is where its at!    … Expand

    How good can a shooter be? This question is answered with great power in Battlefield 1's addictive multiplayer, moving stories and captivating graphics. Once you pop the disc in you are thrown into the front lines where they show you the horrors of this catastrophic event that went down over 100 years ago. A true classic with fun gameplay and beautiful graphical power.

    Despite a very short campaign, Battlefield 1 still offers the best single-player experience in the series. Mix it with a huge, brilliant multi-player that the series is known for and you have an almost complete package. Definitely the best approach to World War 1 yet.
