    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. اللعبة خايسة وماخذه حجم اكبر من أستحقاقها، لعبت ساعتين وحيل أنغثيت وعصبت.
    الأرتداد عالي، والمهمة ما أعرف شلون اكملها لازم أدور حتى اعرف، والرصاص بسرعة يخلص اعتمدت على المسدس، والأعداد كثيرين بشكل يقهر، بعض المهام او المطاليب غبية مثل أفتح الباب، أعدادات التحكم ما فيها حرية مجرد خيارات وضعتها الشركة وعليك تلتزم بيها، تكو تنوع بالأسلحة بس لازم تجمع الأسلحة حتى تستخدمهن، المركبات حيل تغث واكره جزئيتها، الحساسية مزعجبة لذا انصح بين 10 الى 20، الخريطة فائدتها جدًا قليلة الأعداء المكتشفين بالخريطة قليلة وحتى إن طلعوا انتغالبًا شايفهم قبل ان تطلع بالخريطة لذا فائدتها تقتصر الأكثر على المهام وانا أقصد أتجاه المهمة وليس المهمة بالخريطة.

    إلا أن اللعبة قابلة للعب بس راح تحسس بملل وغضب منها ولو بالتغيرات مثل الدبابات والمركبات مع ذلك تحسها مملة.

    MP is almost as great as in BF3, but with a LOT more issues. Balancing took a different route with letting each class run DMRs and Carbines, which does make it a little easier for some classes to deal with different situations. They nerfed the stealth jet to where it was pretty much useless, and being a big bf3 pilot, it was pretty lame that Dice decided to do that.

The bugs, while infuriating, when they occurred less frequently could give you a good laugh. Get out of the helicopter on the city map-crashes the server. Wonderful times spent placing bets with my friends who would get a crash to xbox home, made some good coin when i bet on myself, so that was fun. It's not BF3, but given where the series has gone in the past six years, it makes this game look like a work of art. Expand

    You cannot play this game, unless you have an official Xbox 360 hard disk drive. Doesn't matter if you have storage on a flash drive or internally on your console. WTF kind of nonsense is this? I wish I hadn't bought this game. Well, once again, EA drops a load of crap onto gamers.

    Dice decided to take the series closer to call of duty in every way, from smaller more hectic maps, auto aim, and less focus on vehicular combat, and the main reason people played battlefield was to play a more competitive and somewhat more realistic shooter than call of duty, without the petulance of Arma.

    It was good while it lasted.

    I've always been a fan of the Battlefield franchise, I've played every game since 1942.

    Battlefield 4 on the other hand, is simply a showcase of what a developer can do wrong. Yes, everybody has already explained how awfully glitchy it is, and how matchmaking is complete **** I however was more perturbed about the release day DLC, and the shameless Micro Transactions, which are frequently advertised in menus in the game.

    You can however with one low payment of 50 freaking bucks, get all of the DLC for free, giving you access to a large part of the game you have already payed hard earned cash for. All of the new game-types that I've seen require DLC, and on top of that, many vehicles are badly under-powered until you level them up, which on things like helicopters, is very difficult. The only work around for this is to either, murder your stats by rushing the Heli and attempting to get a kill with the chain-gun, or you can buy the Vehicle pack and unlock everything.

    I understand that the Jets and Helicopters, were quite OP in BF3, but in this game they feel like they were just thrown in there because it's Battlefield. I have about 70 hours recorded online in this game, and I have never once been killed by a Jet. Even when I'm in a Jet myself! On the Bomber Jets, switching to your secondary weapon, which is your primary source of damage, puts you into this unhinged under the plane view, that completely fu*** up your perspective, and makes it near impossible to do anything. I understand that they did this to provide a sense of realism, but it feels incredibly broken.

    The helicopters are quite a bit more difficult to fly as well. It's nearly impossible to level your reticle on something and shoot it, as you are always trying to overcompensate your direction. So you just end up doing fly-by carpet bombings, and hoping to kill something. I was quite good with the Helis in BF3, and have a pretty good kill count with them. In this game, while they control very similarly, they are constantly in a state of horizontal movement.

    Something else that was a pain, but somewhat forgivable, was the explosion hitboxes. While Grenades, and their launchers are in good working order. Any sort of rocket propelled, or shelled rounds, are almost guaranteed to require a second hit on enemy players. I have been hit nearly directly with 120mm tank rounds and survived, countless times. The same applies to rocket launchers, and Heli rockets. It might seem like a bit of a nitpick, but it would really lend to the games immersion, if a gigantic explosion actually killed you.

    Point is, I like COD, and I wanted to like this game. I somewhat enjoyed BF3's campaign, though for me, it doesnt compare to COD in either graphics or gameplay, too much filler.
    But I literally had to force myself to finish this campaign, it was dreadful. No heart, no storyline of any compelling narrative and way too much filler between missions.
    Finally finished it on the second pass and it's unfortunately good to be done with it. Last word for true campaigners: how can a game, where the mp is the star i'll give you that, get such a high rating when these said high ratings are allowing for the fact the campaign is dreadful?

    5. Any screen less than a 45inch, you will be unable to see anything properly(again the graphics are that bad).

    6. The graphical FPS, lag is unnacceptable for a FPS game. You will find yourself dying bc of this.

    First of all, no matchmaking system so I can't play with my friends? Really DICE and EA why make a FPS shooter based on tactics and then not include a convenient system for playing with your friends. And before you guys say, "You can play with your friends, just join them" here is my knock on that. The rooms get full quickly, you are not guaranteed to be on the same team, AND one of us always lags out because the game crashes. SO after spending 20 minutes trying to get into the same room, one of our games crash and then we can't play together. Rinse and repeat till you log off.

    Now onto the gameplay. People do not play the objective, they just sit on roofs hiding with sniper rifles. Maybe it's just me but bullet registration in this game is terrible. I feel like I shot someone 10 times and only 2 of those bullets register. Game is frustrating, avoid it like plague until they fix all of their issues. You can clearly tell this game was rushed to compete with CoD on the market.

    First and most likely last battlefield game I ever play.

    I've been playing BF4 since and am glad that I've made the switch to a game which has a lot more 'mature' players. Don't get me wrong there are some sweaty kids about who are clearly only interested in their K/D ratio but overall as the teams are 30 each you are usually only lumbered with a few of these morons at best so they don't have an impact on the result and usually end up near the bottom of the leaderboard when playing 'conquest'.

    The gameplay is excellent, the vehicles are very good and you have to learn them all as they are not (apart from most land vehicles) that easy to use straight away and the choice of guns is more than adequate. Graphics wise I prefer it to CoD as it seems a little more realistic (CoD now seems a tad 'cartoon' like in comparison when I occaisonally watch my friends clips on XBOX ONE taht appear in my stream.

    The only thing I would change if given the choice would be to limit the amount of times people can use some of the more unique vehicles on certain maps as some people will crash an attack chopper (like the 'Little Bird') and then just hang around not respawning until the helicopter itself respawn's at base and then they deploy straight away and end up spending the whole game 'hogging' certain vehicles.

    That is just a minor gripe, at the end of the day there are lot of selfish idiots out there, this game is VERY GOOD. If you like FPS's and aren't 12 years old and obsessed with having a gun with diamonds on it then I'd advise you to buy this as you'll love it....I look forward to meeting you on the Battlefield folks!!!

    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.
