    Oyunda bir monotonluk var maalesef. Koşmak insanları vurmak çok yavaş ama onun dışında gerçekten çok iyi bir oyun ! Bu arada sakın hikaye modu için almayın.

    Just skip the campaing which sucks (or use it only for learning the basics) and go to multiplayer where you can spend hours and hours of fun. This title made me believe in shooters again.

    An amazing FPS, bar the buggy launch it's maps are fun, vehicles are good and it has an overwhelming amount of guns, definitely one of the best FPS games for next gen. Levolution is also amazing on some maps.

    Campaign is sweet,but too short.Multiplayer is excellent,but it needs a little more teamwork.Overall great graphics and gameplay.Great game to start a ps4 with,multiplayer is still very active and you arent gonna be bored fast from it.

    Battlefield 4 had a terrible release, filled with bugs and constantly shutting itself down. The campaign mode at release had terrible bugs which erased users save files. Thankfully, Dice LA has been in the cockpit addressing these issues. Dice LA continues to release content for the game even today.

    Buen juego, entretenido, audiovisualmente esta muy bien. Duración e historia pobres. Su mejor cara esta en el multiplayer y su poder destructivo. Superado el tema de los servidores vale la pena darle una oportunidad.

    Battlefield 4, is definetely a step up from the previous Battlefield game. The game might've had a some problems at launch, but DICE have done a very good job updating and fixing reported bugs. Nothing surprising there. Also like with the last battlefield game, there is premium in Battlefield 4. 5 DLC's are included, so you do have to pay extra bucks for the full Battlefield experience.Battlefield 4, is definetely a step up from the previous Battlefield game.

    The singleplayer is very boring and cheap, you mostly dont know whats going on. The cutscenes are boring, the characters are boring, and those things are important to make a good campaign. There is just not enough depth to the singleplayer. So you might reconsider buying this game, if you're doing it for the singleplayer. Finishing the whole campaign, took me about 4 hours, and i tried to enjoy it as much as possible (not rushing too much).

    But screw the singleplayer, right? I think most people would agree with me, if i said this game is all about the multiplayer. Huge maps with 64 players is what im talking about! DICE have really done a great job creating a unique atmosphere in Battlefield 4. The tickling in the stomach when shells are shot everywhere, jets and helicopters flying just above you, tanks firing desperate shots at you never gets old. Unlike the singleplayer campaign, the multiplayer has A LOT of depth to the game. Wether you like vehicle combat, or infantry combat, there are a lot of customisations, and roles to choose from. There are many game modes, some of which are; Conquest, team deathmath and rush which are the most played game modes in Battlefield 4 and 3.
    I've experienced that this game encourages teamwork. Either by healing, resupplying, or attacking/defending an objective with your teammates. The level of teamwork required, to be a stable team is perfectly fine. You dont really have to care too much about your teammates, but in the other side you do. There is a balance that has to be achieved, and Battlefield definately got that balance.
    BUT some unlockables, can only be unlocked by playing the singleplayer, and thats bad, because they force you to play something completely different, from what you're unlocking the specific thing for!

    Overall:
    Battlefield can still compete with many new FPS, and you should just buy it now if you already havent.

    Improvements i wish to see in future battlefield games:

    Singleplayer has to be improved

    Launch has to be more stable

    Premium feature has to be removed! - Even though the base game is good, and its NOT pay2win, the premium contains a lot of cool content that we would like to see in the base game.

I found myself often watching cut scenes with a whole lot of destruction and angry men shouting, without really understanding what was happening. Even the incredible graphics & sound design couldn't take away from the countless repetitive missions featuring set objectives... yawn. However, the multiplayer aspect of this game is where everything clicks. Call of Duty really can't come close to this, in the sense of sheer map design & size, teamwork, realism and self satisfaction. It is't a simulator of course, but it makes it's main rivals look like Space Invaders. One of the best games of 2013 - purely for the multiplayer experience.… Expand

    I found this game's campaign mode really boring unlike the previous game. The multiplayer is really really good, a lot of fun modes and customization options for your weapons. This game is at it's best when you play the multiplayer with friends. Overall Battlefield 4 has a great multiplayer mode but a disappointing campaign. Now all the bugs have been fixed and its dirt cheap, so its a steal.

    While Battlefield remains one of the best online console experiences, once again the offline campaign is hugely disappointing, as it's much too short (there are only 7 missions !).

    Campaign was interesting. I played through it twice and had a decent experience.

    Multiplayer was very cool. Before BF4, I only played BF3 on my brother's PC and rented it on PS3 for an hour. As my first true experience with a Battlefield game, I liked how good of a shooter it was despite the bugs. That fall, I had the option between BF4 and COD: Ghosts. I'm glad I chose BF4.

I know modern warfare has a clear advantage over period war games because of the advancements and relatability of the game, however BF5 just had too many ailments to get your trust.

    BF4 was always good at having consistent gameplay, maps that had their own reputation and ways of playing it. Good visibility in terms of seeing players not blend into the background, weapons that were diverse enough so you could find your niche loadout style.

    Playing BF4 on the PS4 definitely shows the games age in terms of graphics... Saying that, BF5's graphics are beautiful, when you're looking at the animations and map design, however in reality it's buggy, you can't see players in your peripheral vision, you struggle to pin down soldiers at a distance because of the detail. So there's drawbacks in both respects.

    Also, this game is old - so the online community is smaller and very good, so if you're not on your game, it's going to be frustrating.

    The only thing I personally don't like - The TTK ratio, 8 bullets is a bit over the top, don't ya think?    … Expand

It completely ruins a game for me and its. why I quit cod.
    The campaign in BF4 is quite fun aswell. I have not yet completed it but I have played quite a few missions and I have enjoyed all of them. The maps on the campaign are fun to explore and you get to use all sorts of guns. You get these load out boxes regularly which allow you to change your weapon to all the guns you have unlocked through out the campaign. You can play all the levels with the exact guns you want which is awesome!
    I have not played any other battlefield games other then battlefield 3 (when it 1st came out briefly) and 1943 the arcade game. Because of this I can't make any comparisons. But servers are still hugely active on this game. If you haven't bought DLC then you can only use server browser but you still get full XP in all servers. I haven't bought DLC and I haven't struggled to find any games. You can filter servers to find only games without servers and there was around 50 servers with players all without DLC maps so don't worry if you don't wanna buy map packs.

    It does have downsides like the mobility feels restricted. Like you get stuck on the smallest of things. Or marking enemies sometimes doesn't work because they are to far even thou you can see them clear as day. The health mite be on the low side but that's person preference and I think that's just how the game was designed in order to be more realistic. How ever it just gets frustrating that you die instantly then you take 30 seconds to respawn. But you can't even spectate or anything while you wait for respawn.

    The campaign AI is a bit annoying. They will walk past all your team mates completely ignoring them and start shooting you. I know gun fire is to be focused more on the player but don't make it so obvious. They shouldn't walk past your team mates at all. They also shoot your through the smallest gaps which you cant shoot back through so you have to move exposing yourself to more gun fire. I understand a game of this age is gonna have a few hitches but this could still have been better. I blame EA thou cos we all know what they are like with their developers and over working them to over saturate the market with all of their popular games.    … Expand

    This game has a lot of promise and does some awesome new stuff. However, EA is still apparently incapable of running servers consistently to meet the needs of their new release. This happens every time a new Battlefield hits, as well as other games like SimCity. At this point, EA has no excuse in regards to their incapability to understand servers.

    Battlefield 4 is a FPS made by Dice under the company EA. I picked this up only recently and have decided to make a review on it, I'll share my thoughts of the game as a whole and comparing it to its main rival's in the FPS genre and predecessors of Battlefield games.

I picked this up only recently and have decided to make a review on it, I'll share my thoughts of the game as a whole and comparing it to its main rival's in the FPS genre and predecessors of Battlefield games.

    Battlefield isn't usually a game I pick up due to my interests in the more 'unique' and 'quirkier' games. I did play the 360 version of its predecessor Battlefield 3 so I had experience in the franchise beforehand. People who are saying that the graphics haven't improved or look bad are lying to you, it's a visually beautiful game and a credit to console, so from an aesthetic point of view it shouldn't disappoint.

    I did hear about the controversy when it first came out and that it was a broken game with dodgy mechanics but when I got on the game I had to do a 3gb update which I assume sorted out all the bugs within this patch. So it shouldn't be that much of an issue now.

    The online is what you make of it and how you play these particular kind of games, I like to go off tangent personally and go my separate ways from the squad. I had to learn quickly that you can't do that often as you're constantly running to the nearest support for more ammo etc. I also found out that not many people revive like they used to on 3 maybe because you have to unlock the defibrillators but I found that quiet odd while playing.

    I played the first mission of the campaign and I'm glad that I don't need to have two separate discs now to play either online or campaign which is nice. The campaign was unusually fun, I say that because I can't stand Army game campaigns as they have difficulties thinking of new ideas that haven't been done and the stories are ridiculously cliche, but yeah it was okay I know the campaigns enjoyment may possibly dip as I progress.

    In comparison to the latest Cod (Advanced Warfare) it still has the better graphics, even though its been a year later, so that's either a positive on EA's behalf or a negative on Sledgehammers. I personally couldn't care about graphics it doesn't necessarily make a good game in my opinion, I'd much prefer game play and content over graphics any day. The decision is up to you; are you a CoD fan or a Battlefield fan e.g. I personally can not stand CoD so I play Battlefield.

    I rated a 7 because after many years of playing Battlefield there is still not a tutorial on how to fly a Helicopter which I find annoying as everyone seems to use it and is forcing me to play game modes with no vehicles. Also this game is a 7 IMO because it wouldn't be a game I would personally recommend to anyone unfamiliar with the game as at times there is a lot of new information for new players to get used to.

    Defiantly a game for veterans of the Battlefield franchise and for newcomers don't play online until you know how to play the game to it's full extent because people will not give you any sympathy if you're new and you'll end up hating the game because of it hahaha

    Thanks for reading my review of Battlefield 4 (Ps4)

    The multiplayer is fun for awhile, but it too is the same thing we have already seen many times and is becoming very stale to me in my opinion.
    If you are in the middle on what shooter you should buy and your choices are Ghosts or Battlefield 4... Take Battlefield 4, it is a much better game than ghosts, but then again I'm not much of a CoD fan so I might be biased... Truth be told, there is no innovation this time around..

There is no joining a game as a group. Why is this such a problem? If there's 3 of us playing, don't break up our squad. Have us wait 3 minutes while you find a game with 3 openings on the same team! After a game ends, people leave. I see 4 spots on my friends team open up. I leave and rejoin. It says it's full and puts me in a queue. Then it puts me on the opposite team, the one I just left. Then trying to join the other team is a crapshoot, at best. If you want to play 2 games with a friend, expect to play at least 3 before you're able to get on the same team. Why is it so hard to understand that when I want to play with a friend, I want to play WITH a friend, not AGAINST them.

    If you like BF3 you'll probably like BF4, they aren't a world apart as some would have you believe, but it is a slight upgrade, and it isn't bad.

    The negatives including the new firing button scheme where I has to press the R2 button instead of the R1. It's really frustrating and it's hard to master, especially in semiautomatic and burst weapons. I wish DICE brings back the R1 firing scheme soon. I didn't feel like playing the single-player campaign; unless you really wanted to desperately get some extra weapons for multiplayer, skip the campaign.

    All in all, this is finally the entry to make Call of Duty a run for its' money. If only they fix up the firing buttons with more alternatives than just the "Lefty" option, this should have gotten a higher rating.

And that was my favorite part for the campaign. multilayer would be very fun if the game was not released with all the bugs an lag. most the Reason why the score is like this is because how poor the release was if they would have waited and fixed there game this would have been a good game… Expand

    Battlefield BC2 is one of my favourite MP shooters of all time. Since then I've played Battlefield 3 and recently got battlefield 4 (premium)for my new PS4.

    The singleplay this time was forgettable, but served as an introduction for the controls and gameplay. I soon dived into the multiplayer where these games usually shines, and well, it was fun. I soon found my favourite class in the classic gamemodes.
    The difference this time, just as with BF3, I have a hard time advancing past a certain score. I find it very hard to get past the 10000 mark, most likely because this requires a lot of good team play, and there in lies the biggest problem I think.
    It's incredibly hard to find a team, where anyone actually cares to play as a team. People are always off on their own agenda. This ultimately made me get bored, I always ended up feeling alone, and this in a game with potential 32 players to team up with....
    You just really need friends to actually teamplay with for this game to shine for any extended period. Or you will most probably get bored real soon.
    This was the same as with BF3.
    I was a real pro playing BC2, I loved the levels and the gameplay and I could score high without knowing who I played with, I found it easy to help my team most of the time, and scoring was simple.
    I just dont know what has happened to gameplay since then but it all just seem more chaotic and random.
    I dont really have a favourite level either. It's really hard to find any good strategies. Especially if one team has a commander and yours dont your basically "painted" by drones and will often draw the shortest straw.
    Bottom line is that BF to me has lost that old "magic" enjoyment I got out of BC2. I play for hours but dont feel like I'm progressing... I unlock stuff sure, but dont get past the feeling of randomness. No matter what I try I cant make much of a difference one game to another.
    Final Word is that BF is prettier than ever, yet feels less fun. I cant put my finger on it really. It's just how I feel. I think it's a balancing issue, but also the large levels with a 1000 different places to camp and snipe from make it impossible to advance without taking a big risk. BC2 levels were not like that.

    I'll give BF4 an OK, but I think DICE should think about going back to more basic levels, where skill makes more of a diffrence, not how many players take advantage of cheap camping tactics.    … Expand

    When I first played BF4, I got in a Zodiac on Hainan Resort Rush and beat the living out of the enemy, watching helicopters fly by and APC's rolling onto land. It felt epic to see as if the match I was playing was literally a campaign mission. The immersion of Battlefield 4 on the PS4 is so amazing that you will think that it is a campaign mission. The innovation of the game features more destruction brought back from BF BC2 (Doesn't really count) and other additions like closing doors, opening security gates, etc which is what makes BF4 great. The campaign on BF4 is still kinda bad however you will get a better time from it than CoD Ghosts or BF3.

    The Bad
    Battlefield 4 may be an improvement in some parts of BF3 but it is a let down in others. Some of the weapons of the game once again prove to be useless and no one will ever use them i.e. DMR's (3 hits to kill someone instead of 2). BF4 also has many server problems (See BF4 on PS4 below) which account to my frustration towards DICE. I think the worst part about this game might be the netcode or suppression. I'm not sure if suppression really does anything towards the people I'm shooting at but the netcode is atrocious in BF4 from what I've seen. I'll give DICE the benefit of the doubt that it's new and all but still, if DICE doesn't fix the netcode problem then you're going to have a bad time on BF4. Also they removed Spawn invulnerability so expect to die immediately when you spawn on your squad-mates; I advise to spawn at a deployment site or in a vehicle with your squad.

    BF4 on PS4

    -Is this game as graphically good as the PC? No but not by much. If you have a high-end PC then get BF4 for the PC because BF4 looks as always best on the PC but if you have a low-end PC like mine that has difficulty playing BF3 Ultra settings, then get Battlefield 4 for the PS4. The PS4's raw horsepower allows the game to run 900p at 60 FPS. The 60 FPS alone should be a good thing.

    -Are their problems with servers like on PC version? Yes there are problems on the PS4 version like on PC however there is a problem only on the PS4 called Error CZ 34878-0. If you get this error, it means that you have a corrupted save file on your PS4 and the only way you can fix it is by deleting it. Servers crash half the time and the netcode can be atrocious sometimes.

    -I have a PS4 and I saw Killzone:SF and so the question is is BF4 better than KS:ZF? I can't say however I can say that KZ has dedicated servers which could be a +1 for them vs BF4 on the PS4.

    BF4 has the opportunity to get Multiplayer of the year and even Game of the Year (Watch TLOU get it mark my words) but unfortunately faces many problems across all platforms with servers crashing and all that happening. If DICE cannot fix the game within the year, then the final verdict for this game IMO is going to be a 6/10. If DICE can fix the game, then my final rating for the game is going to be a 9/10 because for those who are reading this. The biggest problem in the game is server crashes, other than that it's a great multiplayer game (Note Multiplayer)

    Hopefully DICE won't do this with SW Battlefront.    … Expand

    Let me first say that single player is a joke as everyone already knew. The real meat of this game is the multiplayer. On PS4 the game is the best looking shooter EVER for a console. Yes, it looks better than Killzone and plays better. With that said, there are still MANY problems with this game that DICE needs to correct soon.

When the game plays correctly it's almost breathtaking. The key is when this happens which is about half the time. Snipers and other long range weapons are fun to mess around with but are almost worthless because the aiming was made for a mouse and not an analog stick. This is why DICE included a partial auto-aim to the console version. This is still a PC title but you will get quite a bit of enjoyment from the console version. BTW, screw EA for forcing DICE to rush this title the way they did. The "finished" product was a beta version and now DICE is having to release patches to fix the problems. EA is a leach to the gaming community. /rant If you're into shooters pick this one up. If not, i'd save my money and wait for what PS4 has in store.… Expand

    Battlefield 4 is a powerful entry in the multiplayer FPS scene, and improves vastly upon its predecessor. It is somewhat hindered, however, by a alarmingly large number of problems with its online component.

It is somewhat hindered, however, by a alarmingly large number of problems with its online component.

    As seems to be the trend with most games in its competitive niche, Battlefield 4 adopts a single-player campaign largely for the purposes of marketing. It's short and provides some fairly impressive set pieces, but brings no advancements in narrative and fails to avoid invoking tropes in shooter campaigns that we've seen so many times.

    Of course, it's the online multiplayer of Battlefield 4 that comprises the bulk of the game. It's a robust offering, with extremely developed player progression and deep gunplay and vehicle mechanics that outperforms competing games such as Call of Duty in certain respects. While the "Levolution" feature admittedly loses its charm after you've destroyed the same skyscraper for the third or fourth time, and so on, it's a novel element and a sign that the franchise is indeed still innovating. Player and weapon customization has been greatly expanded upon from Battlefield 3, and a real mix of balanced attachments and guns now make the "best" combination for a kit unclear, encouraging diversity. There have been some controversial moves taken with the kits and their respective equipment, but none that have clearly unbalanced the game. The two new game modes, "Obliteration" and "Defuse," seem to be more competitively-focused, and are welcome additions overall, drawing from concepts that Battlefield fans have been asking for.
    Overall, Battlefield 4's gameplay is superb, and would have merited it a 9 or 10 rating from me were it not plagued by certain problems I'll discuss later.

    Regarding the PlayStation 4 in particular, the graphical quality of the game is amazing, and Battlefield 4 is easily among the best, if not the best, launch titles in terms of visual aesthetics.

    Yes, Battlefield 4 is beautiful, but only when it works. To be blunt, the servers are in terrible condition, and you will often find yourself disconnected mid-game. You may find yourself losing records of stats, kills, stored experience boosts, and so on, with frustrating regularity. Both server-side and client-side patches have been promised to fix these problems, and they can't come soon enough. Speaking candidly, Battlefield 4 is an unfinished product.

    One last qualm is with the new "Battlepack" system. EA seems to have placed this in the game as a way to introduce microtransactions into Battlefield 4 similar to Mass Effect 3's, but their purpose seems to have been confused. There's currently no way to purchase them, and yet they come in randomized packs with varying levels of rarity, like a collector's card pack would. The Battlepacks unlock at certain rank intervals, which would be an acceptable system were they not often made inaccessible by the unreliability of the servers.

    That's the prevailing issue with Battlefield 4; it's a wonderful game, but only when you're able to play it.    … Expand

Sadly battlefield 4 has many playability issues for example: my campaign data doesn't save and server connection issues are quite frequent. Even with these bugs battlefield 4's gameplay is still incredibly polished and although the campaign lacks innovation the multiplayer more than makes up for it. One thing that I have found amazingly enjoyable about battlefield 4 is the way guns are unlocked, the way this works is the only way to unlock say the Hawk-12G Shotgun is by using other shotguns the same goes for Sniper rifles, Pistols, assault rifles, L.M.Gs, P.D.W's, Carbines, D.M.Rs and even Grenades. Weapon attachments are unlocked in a very smart way the only way to unlock the red dot sight for a P.D.W for example is to get a set amount of kills with that P.D.W, in addition to this battlefield 4 has added battle packs (similar to gears of war judgement's prizeboxes) these packs come in 4 varieties (bronze, silver, gold and weapon specific) each one gives you a set of randomized items including xp boosts and weapon attachments. While bronze, silver and gold packs are unlocked by leveling up weapon specific ones are unlocked by getting kills with that specific weapon. Add to all this commander mode a mode that let's you join a server and give orders to a team if successful allow you to perform feats such as infantry scans and deploying a gunship. Overall battlefield 4 is a great game to start out your ps4 with it is considerably better then rival call of duty ghost and a great FPS in general despite many bugs and glitches that are still being fixed.… Expand

    The campaign is alright story wise, and there benefits to completing the campaign, namely guns to use in multiplayer. I have been experiencing data loss whenever I quit out of the campaign, so I haven't unlocked those said guns. This is a problem, and one that has persisted despite 3 different attempts(once after release, and after each patch).
    Multiplayer has been a far more entertaining experience than my COD experience, although not by such a margin as to proclaim it the best game ever. Although ghosts has its spawning flaws, and poor map design, it still retains good hit detection for the most part and solid gameplay mechanics. BF4 has a wide array of weapons, vehicles, and the maps are great looking and dynamic. (COD destructive environments don't really compare to BF4, let's be real here). But all is not well, as netcode/hit detection problems are rampant, with problems connecting to games are prevalent.
    In summary, BF4 is better than COD ghosts, but only just. I enjoy the multitude of weapon camos, the variety of weapons, and the large scale battles and gunfights. In comparison to the lack of camos, guns, and fierce gun battles that COD games have, BF4 makes a lot of sense. I understand that everyone has their own preferences, and having thoroughly played both, I must conclude that Ghosts got a 5, and I'm giving BF4 a 7.    … Expand

I'd probably give this game a higher rating if I was in it for the multiplayer, but who knows? I realized the campaign was only going to be a 5-6 hour experience but bought the game anyway seeing as how it was only $15 after my trade-in.

    (which was "The Evil Within" btw, the **** game i've played on PS4 but that's another story)

    I'm not really a CoD or Battlefield fanboy.....but I will say I enjoy this game more than any CoD game I've played since WM3. The campaign just gives you more freedom and space to work with. Sure, it's a linear game just like every other Military FPS but here you are usually given a larger area to work with and you don't have to take the EXACT same path through each level to succeed. The game encourages you to improvise paths/strategies to find out what works best for you.

    When you find yourself in a vehicle in this game it doesn't feel like a turret/scripted section like in other FPS games. In fact, much of the time you don't technically need to use vehicles in the game at all if don't desire to. Also I enjoy that the scripted moments are kept to a minimum when compared to other modern military FPS games....which probably is for the best since the plot is admittedly generic.

    This game can't be given a single point for being original as it is clearly just a CoD clone. That's not a bad thing though, sometimes the knock-offs actually improve upon what they're stealing from. This seems to be the case with this game.

    Of the three FPS games i've played on PS4 this one is tied with Metro: Redux which I also enjoyed but ultimately traded-in due to it's bugs/glitches. From what I've read this game may have been really buggy/glitchy upon release, but playing through the campaign I noticed a very minimal amount of technical issues. Probably due to my keeping my software/firmware updated & current.

Sure maybe it's rewarding to the fans who make the grind which is great, but this game fell flat for me after rank 40. With having that said, I still give this game credit for having a fun multiplayer experience. It's currently the best on the market for first person shooters.

    Multiplayer: Upon release, Battlefield 4 was hindered by a load of bugs, glitches, and exploits that were often game breaking. Are they still around? Yes, but not as much as they were at launch. It can sometimes be frustrating to get past these problems, but now they happen less and are quickly overcome. Undoubtedly, the selling point of this game is the "Levolution" feature, in which elements of the map are destroyed or changed as the battle rages around them, culminating in a big "Levolution" event which greatly changes the map in some circumstances. These are often varied in size and scope, and range from a floor collapsing, a tower falling down, the side of a building crumbling, steam pipes exploding causing a bridge to collapse, a large ship crashing ashore, and an epic collapse of a huge skyscraper, shrouding the map in dust and debris. It is worth playing the multiplayer just to witness these events at least once. As for the rest of the multiplayer, it functions nearly the same as Battlefield 3, which is good for those who enjoyed it, but means that those who didn't enjoy Battlefield 3 and aren't impressed by the "Levolution" feature will have a hard time enjoying this one.
    However, any person who enjoys FPS games is likely to enjoy this, so they should be encouraged to pick this game up as it is definitely one of the most prolific and popular FPS franchises at the moment.    … Expand

    Paid DLC is fine, as long as the vanilla offering is large enough to warrant a full retail price. This isn't the case here.

    In the graphics department, it doesn't really feel next gen. It sure plays smoothly, but I expected a prettier game on the new consoles.

    The campaign is dull and lackluster, and only provides value when the servers are offline. They would have better made it online MP only, and add more maps, instead of this season pass sillyness.

    I remember playing this game on launch day and it was unplayable. Literally. For months. The campaign is there just because that had to put one in. The multiplayer has improved tremendously from what it once was but it certainly is not Bad Company 2. The game is better than Hardline, really anything is. If you need Battlefield on your PS4, you've got your fix. For $20, it's a good deal.

    I am just going to say that the graphics, voice acting, sound effects etc. are quite good, I don’t think this comes as a surprise as DICE is usually very good at that. In terms of gameplay, it is just another FPS game, with all the good and the bad. If you like FPS, you will definitely enjoy this one. I don’t think there is a lot to say as everybody has played a CoD or a BF or something at some point and there is nothing special about BF4. I’d only say, in terms of the campaign, I am a bit disappointed. The campaign is not as spectacular and such an adrenaline rush as it is in other games. The story is quite basic, there is absolutely nothing special about it, the characters are a cliché and the missions are not specially surprising, meaning you won’t see something you’ll say “wow”. As I said, this is kind of a disappointment since BF3 had a great campaign, with great story and some really “wow” moments. I understand a lot of the focus on these games (from devs and players) goes into the multiplayer and, that solo player is not that important anymore, but BF4 campaign feels as if it was done quickly to just tick the “this game has a single player mode” box.

    My opinion then is, if you enjoy this kind of games for the campaign, just buy this one if it is quite cheap (got it on sales for less than a fiver), otherwise look for something else, because you’ll complete the game with a “meh” feeling. Those mainly looking for a good multiplayer experience, I don’t know, but this game is probably quite good for that (read some other reviews ).    … Expand

Enemies feel weirdly bullet-spongey, AI for your squad and the enemies are some of the worst ever, and there are invisible walls all over the place that make attempting to snipe during the campaign an absolute slog no matter how much the setting seems to warrant it. The number of times, from a distance, I shot people directly in the face only for the bullet to impact an invisible wall in front of me or the person I was shooting; insane. It's not even just an issue with snipers. You can be 10ft away from someone and shoot them square in the chest, but you won't get any hit markers while your shot hits an invisible wall between you and the very not-in-cover person you are shooting. It's awful and it's frequent. All these issues aren't 2013 launch issues. This is the game in its final form in December of 2022.

    The multiplayer is very well put together and for whatever reason doesn't have those same issues with hit detection. It's a great time. Hard game to score because, IMO, this is one of the best multiplayer modes ever which is the most important aspect of a Battlefield game.

    The campaign storyline is enjoyable and it's a step up from BF3's campaign, though I wish we could stop picking on the Chinese and Russians. I think in several places it manages to out-CoD CoD, which can be either good or bad depending on your perspective. Sadly, there are a LOT of bugs that I've run into, like having guns completely disappear and having to use the dot on my screen to aim, or constant errors and crashing on the Singapore Strait level. For a console game, even a release day console game, this is absolutely unacceptable.

    Multiplayer I'm still getting the hang of. I'm basing this mainly off my experiences on PC as PSN was down and buggy for much of release day. The unlock systems feel a little awkward, as it's not a clear 'do this get this' progression anymore. As you do stuff with, say, an assault class, you earn points toward unlocking assault stuff, while if you use an assault rifle, you earn points toward new assault rifles, and if you use a particular assault rifle, you get points for attachments for that assault rifle. That means if you're healing or reviving people, you'll get assault score and XP for levels, but not new attachments or guns. There is some randomness involved with battlepacks, which contain paint schemes and unique attachments, and I'm hoping against all hope EA doesn't decide to monetize this (who am I kidding).

    Graphics on the PS4 are decent enough for 'next gen', but are not anywhere as eyepopping as they are on the PC, and of course, the controls are a bit clunky though the Dualshock 4 is really, really nice compared to the 3.

    So, bottom line is it's an enjoyable experience HOWEVER the PS4 version has a lot of bugs to work through. If you haven't already bought it with the bundle, I would recommend waiting a month or so for the bugs to get fixed. Once they do, I will revisit my score here.    … Expand

The single player for this game was short and in no way enjoyable; the characters were not relatable or likeable and the plot itself was weak. At points the action does reach moments where you can let yourself loose and it does it in a way that allows you to pile through generic enemies in a straightforward level with no branching or diversion of any sort. While some of the missions can try doing something a little different from the last ultimately they feel the same and uninspired which is a shame for a game that tried to make the single player a much bigger aspect of the Battlefield experience.

    The multiplayer on the other hand felt a lot more like a complete package, the maps worked well for all game modes, the guns felt easier to handle than they did in the third Battlefield and the modes were fairly diverse and could keep you entertained with one for h at least an hour. While playing the game i felt as though I was drawn towards the smaller scale warfare with the new mode Diffuse being integrated (basically Search and Destroy form COD) which i loved with the maps and weapons of Battlefield. Larger maps and modes still kept much of what the previous game had and made the maps more intuitive for the player as well as adding far more destruction and depth to the maps such as the massive tower in Rogue transmission and the demolition jobs you can pull of in some of the maps packed with buildings. But blowing things up isn't the only thing that feels good online, sniping plays an important role in this game, more than the last game, with a single sniper being capable of holding back squads and lets face it, getting a longshot, headshot in Battlefield feels very good to land.

    The game at the moment is full of glitches and technical issues on the ps3 right now though, the most common being the time it takes to load the textures and weapons when spawning in for the first time in a match as well as save data issues for the single player, making it hard to not give the game a lower score due to these problem as even after 2 weeks or so, Dice has not released a patch leaving the PS3 version of the game a terrible port and simply seems as though it was the version of the game that they threw out into the market unfinished without a care in the world about it especially since the graphics for this version looks horrendous up close and on bigger screens.    … Expand

    Battlefield 4 seems incredibly advanced, even for these days; mutliplayer is large and complex, singleplayer feels almost believable, and looks beautiful. There isn't much else to say in terms of positives, I feel I have bundled them all up nice and tight in those couple terms. And I would so love to say this game is perfect...but it really isn't.

There isn't much else to say in terms of positives, I feel I have bundled them all up nice and tight in those couple terms. And I would so love to say this game is perfect...but it really isn't. I'm sorry Battlefield fans, but it seems the franchise is on a slow decline.

    Admittedly, the game has come some way since Battlefield 3; levolution is a rather interesting concept, but here comes my first complaint; the trailers and game devs made it seem dynamic, but it's so scripted, I was more than just disappointed. OK, it's cool to wander around a street, just to notice it is slowly filling with water several minutes later, up to the point it becomes a river worthy of riding boats along. But how many times can this happen, before you feel like you've seen it before? Not many, I imagine. The same goes for the dam collapse, the building falling, and every other supposedly innovative alteration. Besides these, the game is just Battlefield 3, with shinier lens flare and elevators.

    So, the campaign? It feels fantastic, characters are lifelike, and graphics are blindingly beautiful. I feel I have nearly no complaints about the campaign, besides the fact it lacks a very detailed story.

    I have one final point to make at the moment. I have covered the single player, the multiplayer, and had you been keeping up with other reviews, you probably know what's coming next...yes, the bugs. They are few and far between, and rather minor, but things like sound taking a while to pop in on the multiplayer, and crashes in the singleplayer, not to mention one specific bug in the campaign where there was absolutely nothing to do, and some guy kept making it clear that he was ready for targets when there were none. These few bugs I have found so far are not game breaking, but they do feel incredibly damaging to the experience, especially when you have to back out and reenter the campaign, which makes you feel detached somewhat, and interrupts immersion.

    The game is great, and may well be almost perfect, but it just feels gimmicky, and slightly damaged at the moment. Hopefully fixes will come, but it feels incomplete as it stands, so I say now to wait for price drops if you want this game, because it is certainly not worth £40 at the moment, but may well be sometime in the near future.    … Expand

    Good game, but not significantly unlike the previous iterations. Large servers make for fun and chaotic multiplayer experience, albeit a frustrating one if you aren't a hardcore FPS player because there are a lot more people trying to kill you! :)

    Polished game, with very atmospheric combat. I enjoyed the campaign, however it never really got going with no stand-out scenes and repetitive gameplay. The game suffered from regular crashes and sometimes I had to replay huge sections of the game after a crash. A major problem is that there are too many weapons with no real reason to choose them.

I would have liked to see sections of the game that were more tailored to certain types of weapon with less opportunity to change your loadout mid-game, making it more of a tactical necessity to choose the correct weapons for your environment.

    The game has a much better campaign than call of duty but the online multiplier is slower. I know you battlefield 4 fans are saying " But that's how it is in real life."

They want to have power in the video game world, not be regular. I don't want to play a game that puts me right back into real life. But put that aside Battle field 4 has great graphics amazing weapons and the campaign is better than COD's. And for all you people out there that want a first person shooter that's life like, this is the game for you.… Expand

Battlefield 4 incluía como novedad el aclamado Levolution, pero lo que no sabíamos los usuarios era que esto nos iba a costar perder la destrucción de los edificios (véase en Cruce del Sena, Gran Bazar,...), desaparecieron las bases, y con bases me refiero a la zona de aparición con su pista de despegue, zona de despegue de helicopteros,... (en Battlefield 4 los jets no despegan, ya están en el aire). Me dejo bastantes cosas, las cuales te sacan de la ambientación y hacen notar que no se ha hecho un juego tan cuidado y con cariño como Battlefield 3. A pesar del comienzo desastroso que tuvo, ahora es un juego más estable y que ha añadido contenido gratuito para satisfacer al usuario (no lo han conseguido con todos). Para mucha gente éste es el mejor Battlefield, pero sin duda esa gente no ha probado ninguno de los anteriores. Es increíble pensar que con un motor grafico más potente como Frostbite 3 éste se vea peor a causa de los colores apagados y las texturas tan mal diseñadas, la verdad no sé en que porcentaje se nos dio el juego, pero completo no estaba.… Expand

    In comparison with the current-gen of consoles, Battlefield 4 is the shooter for the next-gen consoles. The graphics are even more stunning than before and there’s an ability to play with more gamers on the console. Choose the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One-version above the current-gen versions.

    The issues aren’t ruinous, and in the case of the multiplayer more an inconvenience that EA needs to address than anything else – but it’s enough to take the shine off what should be one of the best shooters on PS4.

    Battlefield 4 is an excellent multiplayer FPS with wildly varied vehicles and interesting maps. [Jan 2014]
