    I have no idea why people are getting so upset. The game is great. It's very familiar and plays just like battlefield 3. This isn't a bad thing, it's why we love it.

It's amazing how you can dramatically change the maps through events. My favorite is the hurricane in paracel storm and the levee breaking in flood zone. They also added a ton of customization and it feels a lot easier to rank up vehicles now.

    Here are some minor problems with the game:

    1. You can be killed immediately when you spawn. Doesn't usually spawn you right next to enemies, so it typically happens when you spawn on a squad mate in the middle of battle. Really it's your fault for having poor map awareness. I would be much angrier if I was getting killed by temporarily invulnerable players who just spawned on the guy I was fighting with.

    2. Occasional game crashes. I would say once every 8-10 matches. Sometimes I have to turn my console off and on again. This obviously will be patched, so no need to make a fuss about it.

    3. Sometimes you start a new game and here is no sound for about 5-10 seconds. Always comes back. Same as above, not a problem and will get patched.

    I think everyone is just really really mad at the occasional stability issues. I encourage everyone to read the reviews instead of just glancing at the low user score. You will then see that the game is actually really good, and these people are just getting absolutely furious at the minor release bugs and mashing the 0 rating.    … Expand

    This new Battlefield 3 expansion pack isn't very good and is overpriced. As usual greedy EA are releasing expansion packs disguised as new games. Its the same old game in reality. Wake up, fanboys.

    This latest incarnation of BF has some really impressive maps fit for a decent amount of sprawling action. The ability to destroy buildings is pleasing and the weapons are okay.

The graphics are okay but tend to go from very impressive to PS2 level dependingThis latest incarnation of BF has some really impressive maps fit for a decent amount of sprawling action. The ability to destroy buildings is pleasing and the weapons are okay. Most impressive is the sound track which really increases the atmosphere with hard shelled weapon fire noises that echo around you. The graphics are okay but tend to go from very impressive to PS2 level depending on the map you are playing. The fighting is not as frantic as COD in terms of close proximity combat but being staged in a much wider world can be just as tense. I would say that notching up a good score for yourself is much more difficult in BF than it is in any of the COD titles. So in that respect I'm persuaded that BF is the harder challenge.

    What really sucks about this title though........is it's maker.....EA. Electronic Arts is either lazy, always doing things on the cheap or is so arrogant that it just doesn't care about its customers. The EA servers are clearly not up to the task and in any 2 hour gaming period, you might find yourself being kicked off the server on 4 or more occasions because, 'the server has lost the connection.' This is simply not good enough and this is one area where COD completely outshines BF. Every time you get kicked off you lose all of the points you have just earned throughout the current game which means you might take 30-40% longer than you really deserve to rank-up and get better weapons and kit. That adds up to a huge amount of wasted time and a whole heap of frustration.

    Another issue is the frequency in which the game freezes. I've played 5 different modes of multiplayer so far and ALL of them have frozen at one stage or another usually when loading up the map at the start. Poor poor poor!

    You have a choice (most of the time) about where you re-spawn in BF. A nice touch you might think, but also a very frustrating one. All too often all of the available spawn options are all fated and result in just one thing when you are dropped on the map -INSTANT DEATH because the game drops you right in the middle of a fire-fight even if you have watched the small display screen to make sure all is clear before you spawn.

    The other big issue here is that if you only have a 4GB machine, BF4 will not run on your Xbox360. Check the small print on the back of the game box. Regardless of how much of the 4GB you have free, because none of that 4GB is classed as a hard drive you won't be able to load the game. You need a proper hard-drive to run this game and it needs at least 2GB of free space to download base material.

    I actually found the single player pretty enjoyable compared to some reviewers. There are some good tense battles and it's graphically better than multiplayer. It has grit but sadly the foul-mouthed language leaves a lot to be desired. Perhaps if you're an adolescent you might think the swearing is cool, but for anyone with an ounce of maturity you'll realise that whilst swearing is a part of every day life in the forces, it doesn't mean you want all the vulgar profanities invading your living room every time you play. If you're listening EA it adds absolutely nothing to the game at all.

    I'm left so disappointed by this game, it should be brilliant, it wants to be brilliant, but in it's current state it's simply not reliable enough or sufficiently well supported by its own maker EA to be any good at all. Very poor and very frustrating. EA should be ashamed of themselves for the lack of care and respect they show towards the very people who keep them all in gainful employment.    … Expand

BF3 was a little more CODish than the others.. but this is just downright disgraceful. It's just hide and seek with guns. No skill. Just find the person before they find you and you get a kill. They find you before you find them.. they get a kill. It's mindless retardation. I'm tired of Halo 4 but it seems like that is the last skillful FPS on the market. It just sucks that everybody is just trying to make money instead of trying to make a good game that appeals to people intelligent enough to want a skillful shooter instead of this crap.… Expand

I enjoy being able to defend myself against a knife now. Now there are things I don't enjoy about the game, the games vehicles are extremely armored and a lot of them have over power abilities that make it almost impossible to take down your enemy. Some of the guns are overpowered and under powered. I discovered this when running and I pulled out a gun and started to one shot everybody from 200 meters away. Made the game fun on my part, but not on other players. The game has bugs but again I know Dice will have an Update. In all the game is set up pretty well.

Some parts of the campaign you walk around in the dark while your buddies hang back for some reason but wait, your gun flashlight doesn't even work..its the "find your way in pitch black" mini-game. lame. The ocean water looks like black jello. I mean, was it ported from an old PS1 game?? Tons of bugs, getting stuck in the 3D mesh, and over-scripting laughable-ness you expect from CoD.

The single player is your usual modern day FPS campaign except with a slight twist...this one DOES NOT involve nukes!!! You can easily breeze through the campaign in its quick 7 missions to unlock a few knives and weapons for use in multiplayer. It's nothing worth remembering but you should be expecting that from Battlefield. Now the core aspect of Battlefield, aside from the issues i mentioned above. New weapons, maps, vehicles and the introduction of "Levolution". Basically these are, more or less, scripted events that happen sometime during your match that are pretty to watch but you may bore of them eventually. Most maps are just something big falling down but others feature a hurricane arrival and,my favorite, a map in which the streets will over time flood until the entire ground is buried under water and you are forced to fight on rooftops and other elevated areas. Overall the fun factor in this game is extremely high but you may have trouble playing at times when your "perfect game" gets ruined by a random client crash. Use caution when purchasing this game at the moment but you would definitely be missing out if you do not get this sometime in the future.… Expand

    Don't listen the the COD fanboy haters. BF4 is the game we've all been waiting for and until Titanfall drops in the spring, this is the premiere FPS to enjoy with friends and pwning noobs on. The campaign is enjoyable and a good prelude to the centerpiece of the game which is the team based multiplayer. Leave the COD for the 6 year olds.

I have had very few problems with the issues stated above. But I know there is no other game out there that will let ME a fairly mediocre battlefield player kill a helicopter with an ATV.

Furthermore, the single-player is not as exciting as it's Battlefield 3 counterpart. To continue, upon playing multiplayer for the first time, I noticed they had changed something, you are not limited to certain guns depending on what team you are on. In Battlefield 3, whether you were an Iraqi or American soldier, lets say you use an assault rifle, if you are Iraqi you use an AK-47, if you are American, you use an M4A1 or M16A4, and as you use assault rifles you unlock more and more. The good thing about this change is that you can now stick to one weapon and upgrade it much easier, instead of having to change guns every game. Continuing on, some people on this website obviously have not played Battlefield at all. The helicopter, jet, boat, car, etc. controls are all the same as Battlefield 3, Battlefield 2, etc., they are just not skilled enough to use them. The multiplayer does have some minor bugs, and the loading screens may freeze sometimes, but multiplayer takes pure skill. And the people complaining about it on here and giving Battlefield a bad score, are just CoD fan-boys.

    What can I say... I loved the Beta because I expected bugs and server issues, but now that I've put a great deal of time into the full release on the xbox 360, and I'm very disappointed! I'll keep the CAPS to a min, but I can't help myself; THE GAME ISN"T FINISHED! DICE have created something with amazing potential but I can hardly run it on my early 2012 Xbox 360. I understand that it is becoming standard practice for developers/publishers to use the end users as quality control but this is ridiculous. Every time I sit down to play within an hour or two the game freezes and on two occasions this freezing has corrupted my saved game files. In addition to freezing my xbox the servers will become unavailable and there are many in game glitches.

    Bottom line: After a similar release fiasco with BF3 (major updates having been needed) I would caution everyone not to purchase any EA/DICE product within the first couple months.

    While the campaign is a damn sight better than Battlefield 3's, it still falls a little flat in spots. [Issue#105, p.82]

    For all of its innovative bonuses however, Battlefield 4 on Xbox 360 is beginning to show signs of age. It can be applauded for great water physics and being able to handle the frame rate of a constantly dynamic environment rather well in both single and multiplayer. However, the character models and maps are definitely looking rather blocky and dated, even at 1080p.

    Battlefiled 4 lacks in the single-player campaign with a dull and forgettable story, while its still remains a very strong experience in its multiplayer side. Unfortunately it gets dragged down by several bugs capable of impacting the entire experience with hangs, savegame corruption and hitbox problems that we hope will be quickly be fixed.
