    The last really good Battlefield game to date - and it is fantastic. The multiplayer is a must play and the game looks gorgeous. Overall rating: 8.8.

    Battlefield 1 is one of the best modern multiplayer FPS games, that is still strong to this day. Besides, the single player campaign is one of the best, the Battlefield franchise can offer. A must play!

    My personal favorite title in the Battlefield franchise, with lots of action, an intriguing story mode, and fantastic multiplayer. Its just that the playerbase is practically non-existant.

It takes away the dependence on gun attachments and scopes, and really makes you have to master the weapons and their iron sights. Which makes some of the chaos of the battles feel more engaging that many of the more recent Battlefields which feel like are loaded with gameplay assists via gun attachments. The core gameplay is the same old Battlefield, but the new WWI setting really makes the chaos of the series shine. Some maps are just brutal tug of war battles that feel like the endless and hopeless WWI battles, while others are wide open terrains that require a methodical team-based strategic approach. Every classic element of Battlefield is exceptionally executed, which includes all of the original gameplay modes.

    What really makes this game stand out from the pack is the operations mode. Adding historical context to each battle really makes you feel the sense of pressure and urgency with each push. Plus it’s really fun seeing how all of the maps tie together in the grand scheme of the war, as opposed to every other videogame where each map is just random killing until you complete your objective. I absolutely loved the historical context to this mode, it does not get old, and it really increases the pressure of the battles. This was replicated in Battlefield V, but unfortunately the execution wasn’t there in the sequel.

    I played this when it first launched in 2016 and loved it. I am now revisiting it in 2022 and loving it all over again. Surprisingly it held up extremely well, and does not look or feel dated. They really put a lot into getting this game right, so everything holds up. The sound design is another great feature of this game, as it adds to the immersion - for example the whistle blowing as you push into a new sector, just that one tiny touch adds so much to the experience.

    This is my favorite Battlefield experience, but I know it can push the modern warfare player base away. I think this is what Battlefield needed, especially in hindsight knowing that Battlefield 4 was pretty weak, and how bad Battlefield V and Battlefield 2042 were. Absolutely wonderful game, even 6 years later, and the weapon balance really stands out in contrast to other Battlefield games.    … Expand

To get it out of the way I will start with the BAD. Well to start it's an EA game so they will try you to spend as much money on Progression, DLC, EA access, Different bundle's, Special edition Etc. Honestly I wish the different weapon variants actually made a much bigger difference. Like yeah there are a **** ton of variants but really the difference is so minimal it's frustrating. The matching making is pretty **** but it's pretty late after it released so it's kind of natural. Now on to the good, well the map design is great and there are a ton of unique and well detailed maps. Next the gun play, all of the guns have a great beefy feel, they literally collect mud when you lay in the mud. Now that's some real detail! Next is the Game modes, well there are so many amazing modes Conquest, Domination, Rush, Team deathmatch, war pigeons, and finally OPERTAIONS. Well with Operations it's quite simple it feels like all out war! The speeches before give a good perspective of the soldiers fighting. The Music and sound design is great, the songs get you super pumped up for the fight ahead. I think I'm done but honestly I did not do this game enough justice with this review because this is not everything.… Expand

    "Battlefield 1" is very good, but it's not the best game in the series. In fact, many fans may feel disappointed due to some frustrating aspects. For example, the weapon handling feels strangely "off". It takes awhile to get use to aiming which shouldn't be the case for any shooter.

In fact, many fans may feel disappointed due to some frustrating aspects. For example, the weapon handling feels strangely "off". It takes awhile to get use to aiming which shouldn't be the case for any shooter. Another major issue is that enemy players can easily blend into the environment. This can lead to a lot of cheap deaths since you can hardly see them.

    Additionally, there are times when BF 1 can turn into a running simulator due to the lack of vehicles. There's nothing more frustrating than running half way through a map only to be shot dead by a sniper. Speaking of snipers, they're easily the worst thing in this game since their bullets can seemingly travel the world and back. When you discover that you've been taken out by a sniper, they're usually half way across the the map. It's ridiculous.

    Bullet damage can also be wildly inconsistent. There are times when I've shot a charging player with a powerful rifle at close range and they end up stabbing me to death. WTF. Of course, I have to mention that loading times between online matches are horribly long. Despite these issues, the core gameplay is pretty good. Series veterans should enjoy mastering the new weapons, maps and vehicles. In addition to multiplayer, there's also a single player campaign that is the best story mode in the series. However, many of the missions require a stealth approach that can be hard to maintain.

    Visually, "Battlefield 1" is a graphical powerhouse. It looks great on Xbox One and the dynamic audio is what you'd expect from a DICE shooter. Despite its many shortcomings, the game is very good. Overall, I'd rate it with an 8.8 out 10.    … Expand

    A truly immersive and cinematic multiplayer gaming experience. Battlefield´s all out, large scale war really brings out all the potential of multiplayer gaming. Even for a gamer like myself who generally prefers single player games over multiplayer ones. I still found myself hooked to this game for a long time. Battlefield 1´s amazing DLC maps certainly extended the games longevity.

My score is mainly for the multiplayer, which is fantastic. The campaign -- though it is surprisingly good considering that it is Battlefield we're talking about -- is not the main point of the game. The main point is that the multiplayer, Battlefields "badge of honour", is a remarkably fun and competitive experience set over countless beautiful and exciting maps which take place in different theatres of "the great war". I'm not a big fan of multiplayer generally, but Battlefield 1 was an exception for me. When it comes to competitive FPS titles, I'm just left with one question regarding this game: what more can you ask for?… Expand

    Es un buen battlefield dentro de esta saga, claro se queda corto comparado con entregas anteriores y lo se que es por el tema de la WW1 ya que no pueden poner muchas armas y vehículos, pero el ambiente de la guerra destructiva esta muy pulida. La campaña es muy buena pero muy corta, te quedas con ganas de mas. Los DLC, para mi son un robo de dinero no valen la pena.

    Battlefield 1 is a beautiful game graphically which is nicely juxtaposed by the chaos that ensues around your character as you play multiplayer and even the campaign.

The game play itself is wellBattlefield 1 is a beautiful game graphically which is nicely juxtaposed by the chaos that ensues around your character as you play multiplayer and even the campaign. It's crazy to think the craters around you from artillery, the debris from buildings crashing down, and much more are from other human players and not just the game trying to make it seem chaotic. The game play itself is well balanced with each class having a specific role to play in the battle to come. This allows the player to find the class that best suits their playstyle to not only enjoy the game more, but to also help their team and the objectives they are trying to capture or defend. Additionally, several weapons in the game must be unlocked by leveling up or using specific weapons. Some may find this annoying or tedious; however, the satisfaction of unlocking a new weapon after performing certain tasks related to the class you're playing as is more than worth it. Compared to Call of Duty this is actually better suited for you as a gamer as in Call of Duty you may unlock a gun from leveling up that you don't really want to use or could care less about. In Battlefield 1 though, the requirements to unlock a specific weapon or variant are laid out clearly and you can focus on the gun(s) you want to unlock rather than ones you don't really want. While on the comparison between the two games, you can actually unlock several weapons before leveling up rather than just one per level giving the progression of multiplayer in Battlefield 1 a quicker sense of pace. The vehicles are fun to use whether or not your the pilot/tanker or just a passenger and in the confines of WWI seem truly powerful in the right hands. At the same time, it's a fun game of cat and mouse trying to destroy these awesome machines which adds not just fun, but satisfaction when you finally pull off the killing blow.

    In some of the game modes, the losing team will get a Behemoth or other advantage to help turn the game in their favor. Occasionally, this works for the team, but more often than not it is too late for it to be of any real help. It is a nice event that occurs though as it gives players who may be pessimistic about the game a ray of hope that reinvigorates them.

    The campaign is very fun and the stories it tells are captivating. Each one has specific challenges to complete as well which adds another layer to these stories and increases replayability. The one downside to the campaign are the few levels where you play essentially a stealth game, which seems out of place in an FPS focused around so much mass destruction and chaos. These levels normally slow down the stories you're playing through taking away the excitement and replacing it with stress as you attempt to maneuver around enemies and take them out without being seen or else you'll have to survive a gunfight where the numbers are not in your favor.

    In the game, you can unlock codex entries from either completing challenges in the campaign or by completing certain objectives which again (and I know I've said this many times) is satisfying upon getting them unlocked. These codex entries allow the player to learn more about WW1 and are quite interesting to read. I wish more games would do a similar thing.

    The reason this game gets a 9 out of 10, and not a perfect 10 are for two reasons though. One I've already addressed, although is not as big of a deal, and that would be the stealth missions in some of the campaign levels. The second has to do with multiplayer and I was saving this for the end:
    the balancing of multiplayer games is downright pitiful. Most games I've played with the exception of some Operations game modes, are one time steamrolling over the other.    … Expand

I'll be the first to admit that I hadn't played a "Battlefield" game prior to this one. Sure, some of them looked cool, but for the most part, I never had a huge amount of interest in the series. Recently, however, after hearing way too many positive things about "Battlefield 1," morbid curiosity got the best of me and I wanted to give it a shot. As it turned out, I ended up really enjoying myself!
    Taking things to World War 1 was a welcome reprieve from all the "futuristic" shooters in 2016, and fortunately, "Battlefield 1" sticks the landing! It's a surprisingly cinematic shooter: the game's single-player "War Stories" campaign will have you doing a good amount of watching alongside your playing, but admittedly, I did find the game's characters to be rather compelling and interesting, and the stories to be rather emotional. The fast-paced gunplay is also amazing, the visuals are top-notch, and I find the return to World War 1 compelling in the aspect that it takes things back a technological notch: no longer are you spoiled with the greatest weapons of all time with crazy attachments, instead you have to work within the constraints of what was available at the time. It's an interesting idea that's executed very well, and it adds a layer of realism to the game.
    It's not quite a "perfect" game for me: I wish that the single-player campaign (or "War Stories," if you will) was just a little bit longer (especially in regards to gameplay, since I mentioned that you do quite a bit of watching), and I do think some of the vehicle sections feel a little bit uninspired, but otherwise, "Battlefield 1" is a successful World War 1 shooters, and it gets me pretty excited to see what EA will offer when "Battlefield V" releases later this year.

    Stunning graphics with amazing maps! All maps are just beautiful paired with the destruction of the maps which makes it a 10/10 game with servers that are great! With the 100 hours I’ve put on it, I have never lagged out once!

    The best game in the Battlefield series so far. No game has ever gone this far and deep into World War 1. With a good story mode, a HUGE variety of weapons, and enough info to make a History Geek like myself absolutely love this game! Amazing weapons, maps, vehicles, and game modes. This lives up to the Battlefield franchise. 10/10

    Let me just start by saying that I love the battlefield series. over the years, DICE has taken fans through WWII, Vietnam, Iraq/Iran, fictional conflicts between the USA, Russia, and China, and now back at the earliest time period ever used by the series: World War 1 (1914-1918 for those who are curious).

I canLet me just start by saying that I love the battlefield series. over the years, DICE has taken fans through WWII, Vietnam, Iraq/Iran, fictional conflicts between the USA, Russia, and China, and now back at the earliest time period ever used by the series: World War 1 (1914-1918 for those who are curious). At the time of writing, I have played over 500 hours in-game on the PC version. I can say without a doubt that it is an instant classic in the Battlefield series. it is just as good and maybe better than its earlier counterparts, Battlefield 4 and Battlefield Hardline. While I can't say that Battlefield 1 brings me back to my childhood playing Battlefield 1942 or Battlefield 2, the game certainly lives up to being a good addition in the series. Now allow me to examine some specifics:
    Graphics: 8.5/10
    definitely a step up (or six steps up) over BF4's Frostbite Game Engine iteration. even at lowest settings, the game still looks amazing. I still think it can be better and i'm sure it will get there, but very nice overall!
    Gameplay -Maps: 9/10
    excellent gameplay on most gamemodes. Air Assault needs work at time of writing, but otherwise, awesome!
    Gameplay -Weapons & Vehicles: 8/10:
    While the game goes for a visually stunning and immersive experience, it isn't hard to notice the issues with weapons and vehicles in the game. With many a patch and rebalancing, the gameplay is much better now than at first, but I still feel like certain things are slightly over/under powered.
    Bugs: 7/10
    Yes, there are still some bugs in the game. a few are extremely annoying, but overall, not bad. at least they (mostly) fixed the kill-cam.
    Player-Base (PC): 6/10:
    admittedly, the game has lost some player base since launch and it can be difficult to find active games for certain gamemodes. West Coast US servers are few and far between for anything but Conquest and 2-3 TDM games. East Coast is a better bet for those living in the States. Console also seems to be doing better in that respect.
    Overall Experience: 7.5/10
    I love this series and am always excited to see the next game come out. Battlefield 1 has been a truly unique experience and I think it deserves a place in the BF community for a long time to come. The game does suffer from low player base in certain areas and the system requirements to run the game are somewhat high, making smooth gameplay for many people very difficult. from experience, I can say that you will want an intel or AMD processor in the 3.4-3.5GHZ+ range. a video card like the GTX 1050ti would do well in this title at 1080P 60FPS for low to medium settings or better. If you like battlefield and are interested, I definitely have to recommend this game! Keep up the good work DICE!    … Expand

    Cependant, ce qui augmente la note, c'est le multijoueur, sans doute l'âme de ce Battlefield, depuis selon moi Battlefield 3, dans l'esprit de son temps somme toute.
    Pas mal d'armes, même si ce sont souvent les mêmes que l'on voit dans le jeu, quelques maps sympas, mais pas assez à mon goût. Le gameplay est bon, la connexion tient la route (Xbox One), les graphismes sont bons, pas ouf mais bons.
    Les DLC sont cool, mais à ne pas acheter trop chers (tout comme le jeu, à 70 euros le multijoueurs c'est un peu excessif), ils ne valent pas 50 euros (20 euros c'est pas mal du tout, nouvelles armes, nouvelles maps, bref pas mal du tout ce contenu).

    Globalement, c'est un bon jeu, les mises à jour ne sont pas quotidiennes et censées, le multijoueurs est sympa, et le solo absent et c'est dommage.
    Le prix est en baisse, et 20 à 30 euros c'est honnête je pense.    … Expand

It is very fun and feels very realistic having 32 v. 32 in a WWI setting making it feel very real life and immersive.

    There are many things in Battlefield 1 that give the players a huge amount of options on how, who and what they want to play with or what they want to play full stop. The game modes available are: conquest, rush, war pigeons, team death match, domination, operations and campaign of course. Conquest is a large team battle over huge maps of which vary widely with the terrains. In this game the teams will fight to gain control of the flags whilst killing each other and gaining points from killing the other team and then depending on how many flags your team has your score will slowly go up or quickly go up due to the ownership of the flags. The campaign of the game is an excellent re-enactment of the great war, yes it is a little over exaggerated with all of the shooting and drama but people who play first person shooters don’t normally want to be jut educated, they want to be thrilled with what they’re playing and maybe have a little bit of learning on the way. Battlefield 1 gives the perfect mix between shooting and the experience itself, as soon as you start the story of the game you’ll want to go into the next stories and I’m very sure of that, they are exhilarating and very dramatic making you infused into the game making your own decisions over the large map of which you play in.
    The content of the multiplayer is absolutely amazing, there are tons of different weapons to unlock and tons of weapons to play around with and loads of different pieces of gear to create your very own class from, you can switch to planes and to tanks and to trains and boats and even a zeppelin, there are mounted turrets in places on the maps leaving hidden but powerful siege areas, the teams are well balanced and the mix of different classes between the huge teams makes the game even harder but at the same time so much better as it’s not too challenging but it’s definitely not too easy.
    The price of the game is now around 30-25 pounds which isn’t bad at all, its starting price was around 55-60 which for the game itself and new was still a very reasonable price. It has a range of everything and it is all built to perfection and that’s one of the only problems with the game, on Xbox 1 it runs great with a good or great Wi-Fi but if yours isn’t great or good then its likely to lag or glitch a little when in game, when on PC there’s a large problem if you don’t have a very good PC because the game has pretty much no chance of running… at all. I suggest that if you would like this game you either need an Xbox 1 or a very good PC.
    The graphics of the game are insanely good and the huge maps look stunning with all of the visual effects, the sounds are amazing and set with obvious perfection into all of the correct guns and gear and the correct places, it could be real if it wasn’t inside a screen, the game itself is visually stunning and that’s an understatement!
    In conclusion I would highly recommend that you get this game if you like first person shooters because it’s a whole new experience for any player!    … Expand

The main reason i got the game was for the single player and ill say that it was amazing and fun to play the best one being the Gallipoli campaign. The only cons to the story was that it was to short and we didn't get to stay with the different characters for that long to connect with them when the emotional moments happened that were suppose to make you sad didn't really affect me much as like i said i didn't spend as much time with the characters as i would of liked.

    Battlefield 1 which dawns on the combat of “The Great War”or commonly known as World War 1.EA Dice discovered a fresh game design with the new genre of gameplay compared the past future or modern shooters in the past 10 years.

    The Game developers have found a new and fun way to play with an extensive campaign featuring 6 war stories that show each theatre of combat in the 1914-18 war.The stories including 5-6 missions showing many ways to play so the player feels they are in a free world,Sneaking through a German encampment to find mechanical parts for your tank ‘Bess’ or playing as a volounteerl in the Italian Arditi (“The Daring Ones”) fighting up the mountains against the Austro-Hungarian forces in a full armor suit composed of steel.

    On the other side the new 40-64 player multiplayer showing off the new “Operations” gamemode has completely blown players away.Drawing on all aspects of the war Operations provides you with the use of Armored Cars,Tanks including the A7V Heavy Tank help you capture the objectives and take the sectors to win the game.With the huge array of vehicles let’s talk about what you get if you don’t spawn in one.Players have a choice of 4 classes to choose from.Assault which utilizes sub-machine guns and explosives,Medic with mid ranged rifles and med packs,Support shows off LMGs and ammo crates and Scout utilizes the snipers and flares to spot enemies.If you decide to rank one of these classes up to rank 10 you’re rewarded with a rank 10 weapon including the Hellriegel,Selbstlater 1906,Huot Automatic,and the Martini-Henry.The impressive amount of weapons adds a lot of variety and fluid gameplay to lead your team to victory.

    EA Dice.The developer of the Battlefield franchise uses the Frostbite engine to add the almost realistic graphics to make you feel like your are in the game.Battlefield’s gameplay is the most action packed and flowing battlefield game I’ve ever played since I started playing with Battlefield:Bad Company 2.Even though the game has a lot of positive things going for it there are quite a few bad things that can happen.For instance,sometimes when you spawn in your screen will be all black and you can only see your teammates icons,objective icons and spotted enemies.Another is sometimes you’ll lag out of place and end up falling out of the map or if your trying to destroy an enemy tank your explosives won’t do anything.

    I received Battlefield 1 for my birthday and ever since I’ve only dealt with the bugs and glitches a few times and everything else has been amazing.The game is quite pricey at $60 but it’s worth it .I'm already level 54 and even though it takes longer to level up it becomes more exciting the longer you play to try and level up.Anyways my review on this game is mostly positive but if you want a fully detailed experience i recommend getting the game for yourself.    … Expand

    Battlefield® 1 brings fun back into history. Whether it be the “War Stories” of the campaign or the maps that resemble actual battles of World War 1.

    This game really gives a new experience to first person shooters (FPS). Most FPS’s are going ahead to the future with jetpacks and lasers but Battlefield® 1 dives into the past going back to world war 1. The campaign gives players a chance to get a mixed battle style. One mission you will be fighting in the skies above the Alps, and the next you're a lone fighter in the Arabian Desert.

    Dice and EA did a really good job on the multiplayer as well as the campaign. The class system lets you pick your way of war so to speak. You can choose the assault class if you want to be a front line fighter. The Medic class is self explanatory, running around to get revives. The support class comes with many offensive tools as well as ammo packs to resupply your teammates. The Scout class deals with snipers. This class comes with a flare gun as well as binoculars to help spot enemies.

    There are also three elite classes which you can’t spawn in with. These three are the tank hunter class, flame trooper kit, and the Sentry kit. The tank hunter comes with a rifle that specializes in blowing tanks up. The flame trooper kit comes with a flamethrower called the wex. The final elite class, the sentry class, comes with italian armor that lets you take hits while gunning everyone down.

    Overall my experience with this game has been amazing. Playing on the Xbox 1 it’s a little bit slower and lags more than pc. If you live in the Midwest expect a little more lag because you have to play on an east coast server.    … Expand

    I have been playing “Battlefield 1” for close to six months now after buying it for the Xbox One in October and I have played just about every other Battlefield game there is. “Battlefield 1” is unequivocally my favorite installment of the Battlefield series. The creators of the game took a risk in jumping back to world war one and challenging the games that have dominated the console market for years. Needless to say the risk paid off.

    “Battlefield 1” is the first mainstream military shooter that is based on World War One which is a refreshing change compared to the exaggerated futuristic shooters of “Call of Duty” . The game captures the horror of all out war and transfers it to the player perfectly. The campaign in “Battlefield 1” is made up of six individual war stories with smaller “objectives” . Without a storyline based on a main hero the player will really be able to feel the affects of all out war and see how different groups of people viewed the war. While the campaign is not as long as some would like, it is easily the best campaign in any first person shooter thus far. The campaign provides amazing gameplay as well as some scenic variety from the Argonne Forest in France to the Sinai Desert in Egypt.

    There is also something to be said about the multiplayer in “Battlefield 1”. Praised by many, the multiplayer consists of six different game modes Conquest, Rush, Team Deathmatch, War Pigeons, and Operations. The two new game modes being War Pigeons which is a new take on capture the flag, and operations which mirrors actual war with one side attacking and one side defending. The multiplayer gameplay will keep players playing for hours on end.

    Overall I have a great experience with “Battlefield 1”. The campaign and the multiplayer are nothing short of amazing. The gameplay is smooth with few problems or frustrations, the controls are very intuitive, and the learning curve is minimal. I consider this the best first person shooter there is and would recommend it to well… anyone.    … Expand

The campaign isn't very good, but no one was expecting it to be great either, it does serve as a good tutorial though. My only concern is that it takes really long to get into a game. for me, it takes 5-7 minutes on average for a game to load, and I have a pretty average internet speed. Anyways, the game is definitely worth a buy, and you won't find many other WW1 shooters like it.… Expand

With a emotion driven single player, an amazing game engine, a beautiful original score, and an addictive multiplayer, Battlefield 1 is the game FPS fans have been asking for. The single player campaign or, "War Stories", is so emotional from the open prologue mission to the very last story, that it kept me engaged and gave me goosebumps throughout each of the missions. With the cutscenes throughout the missions, it was like watching a movie, the motion capture was so realistic, it even had me fooled on knowing the difference between a video game and real life. Each character felt human and you could feel the raw emotion that they were expressing throughout the critical moments in the missions. The multiplayer as I said is addictive and hard to take your eyes off of, it is so amazing, the most satisfying part is the destruction which is amped up to max with improved detail. The new game mode, "Operations", is the showcase game mode in multiplayer where both sides fight to capture sectors of map until capture each control point, and of course all the original game mode are back in all their glory like, "Rush", and "Conquest", and now their is, "Team DM", "Domination", and a another new game mode, "War Pigeons". The arsenal of weapons at your disposal is big, really big, there is a lot to choose from, from the normal standard issue weapons that most known to in service in the war, to the exotic weapons that make every side evenly powered. This is a WWI game based on WWI, it is a historical game but it is more inspired by it than being a historically accurate game, but it is nonetheless a great tribute to all those who served in WWI. For someone like me who is a big Halo, and Call of Duty fan, I have suddenly became a huge fan of Battlefield 1 and the series, I really prefer this game over Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Like most people, we were hoping that Call of Duty would go back in time rather than going forward in time, but no one expected Battlefield to take the route, but they have amazed me more than Bad Company 2 amazed me when I first played it. To me Battlefield 1 is the best FPS game of 2016, and one the most memorable games I have ever played, and I will be playing it for years to come, but to sum this game up in one word, Unbelievable.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For an in depth (and very long), honest review please read below. Spoilers ahead!

    When I first bought this game my first mission was to get online as fast as possible, and that is what I did. Upon getting online and into my first 'Operation', one of the new features added to this latest member of the Battlefield series I was in utter awe. The graphics, theme, weapons, the sound effects (oh those sound effects are to . . . die for) all draw you into a game made with passion. If you are on the attackers side of this grand version of capture the flag, the first time the whistle blows to 'go over the top' your heart will, as mine did, scream 'OH NEPTUNE!' For the defenders, in-place cannon and machine gun positions, barbed wire that injures and destructible cover adds to the beautiful WW1 theme.

    Bullets, mortars, tank shells and mustard gas will all be thrown your way from the 32 player team opposing you as you dip, dive, duck, dip and dodge your way closer to the flag, with occasional blast from your weapon to keep the defenders heads down. I throw my gas mask on to stop me from chocking to death and 'bayonet charge', another new feature, the first British 'Tommy' I see (with a satisfying kill animation) and begin to capture the flag.

    And this is where the inherent problems of the multiplayer FPS series start to creep in.

    Battlefield games have always been team games. In the loading menu for the old but gold 'Rush' mode, one of the hints it gives you is effectively along the line of 'don't be a lone-wolf'. Thus during my very short lived career as a German 'Stormtrooper' I found to my surprise, or rather not, that 2/3rds of my 32 player team were still sat at the back of the map as the sniper class, not moving forward and not helping the team. This is a recurring feature, though not one you can blame DICE or even EA for. Camping, lone-wolves, the 'I shot him 10 times and nothing and he got me once and I died' themes are all present in this game in abundance. Sadly, the game cannot break away from the limitations of the genre.

    However, speaking of DICE and EA some of the design choices for the game came as a major shock for me. Although the 'too many automatic weapons' critic rarely becomes an issue when online as the fast pace of play favours automatic weapons, the support class to name one issue, armed with LMGs, all seem to have a very low magazine size. This is a huge problem for a class who's number one job is to keep shooting, always! You'll find yourself reloading more than firing. Weapons feel very similar and progression is painfully slow (but I kind of like that).

    Another issue, as always, is the drip fed DLCs. Two of the major factions of the ww1 era are not in the game, France and Russia. And the fact that the Austro-Hungarian Empire are referred to as just Austria comes as an odd choice for a game that revels in its history, clearly the second half of the Empire is in a DLC.

    The campaign on the other hand is a treat. Split into six mini stories, all of which are dripping with emotion from a game that is trying, and succeeds, in taking itself very seriously. It is a shame that most of the maps from the campaigns didn't make it into the multiplayer experience, where 95% of your time will be spent. DLCs of course, see above.

    Overall . . .
    Pros:
    Generally very satisfying MP (if your team work together).
    Tone of the game is fitting and makes me genuinely feel sorry for killing the opposition.
    Music is awesome.
    Sound effects are awesome.
    Campaign short and sweet.
    WW1 theme works very well.

    Cons:
    Very similar to other FPSs in terms of annoyances.
    EA selling you half a game.
    Weapons feel very similar.

    8/10 Would recommend.    … Expand

This game is to Battlefield 4 what that Vietnam expansion pack was to Bad Company 2. That is to say, it feels like a BF4 expansion. It's still a good game, to be sure - but don't expect anything groundbreaking.

    There are a few improvements, however. First off, airplanes are much, much easier to shoot down, so they're not as ridiculously OP as in previous iterations (BF2). They're also generally much weaker because it's, like, 1915. The anti-tank weapons wielded by infantry also feel much more powerful. I guess what I'm saying is that I always felt the vehicles were way OP in past versions of the game, but not so much in this one. On the other hand, you can repair your tank without even exiting the cabin, thereby keeping you out of harm's way...I guess the OP or not analysis on the tanks could go either way now that I think about it...

    Anyway, it's a decent game, but nothing we haven't seen before.    … Expand

    This games multiplayer is absolutely fantastic. Marred only by the high influx of new fps players and CoD transplants. Other than that, it runs great and the controls are tight and responsive. That being said the game still needs work in areas. The user interface is a little convoluted and the menus can be confusing if you don't take the time to figure them out. Simple functions like quitting right after a match don't work properly right now, but these minor issues do not affect the most important part of this games multiplayer, over all game play. Once again, these are minor complaints and will be improved upon over time and when that happens it will take my over all score for this game from a high 8 to a 10+ if it were possible.

    Anyone who's never played this series and is interested or on the fence take note: IMO
    This game has a high and intimidating learning curve. You do not simply pick up, play and do well. BF is not that kind of game. You spend the early part of your learning experience overwhelmed and dead. In fact, you die a lot starting out and it's frustrating as hell, but even the veteran players of the series have gone through it. So just know, it gets better and the learning curve is worth the frustration.    … Expand

    With the release of Battlefield 1, I loved the concept but really didn't know what to expect. Just with the fact it touching a subject we have not experienced yet, I welcomed the change. What we received is probably the one of the, best looking and most balanced shooter ever.
    The campaign is one of the most fluid campaigns I have played, split between different aspects of the war, each campaign tugs at your emotions and doesn't let go. Definitely one of the most emotional campaigns I have played that makes you appreciate what these men went through.

I cannot count how many times I've emptied an entire clip into someone and they didn't die. My very first death on the game came from this one dude I was about to shoot in the back with my sniper rifle (on Scout) and I was about 20 feet behind him. I got a good shot on him and hit him clean in the back (with a sniper from 20 feet away) and he proceeded to just sprint around a corner and then killed me after. To which my friend, who was watching, chuckled incredulously, and said "They weren't wearing body armour in World War One". You cant run-and-gun in this game either, as you can in COD, because there are always enemies lying in the most inconspicuous spots, perfectly camouflaged, ambushing everyone, and also because people seem to have unlocked weapons that just drop you instantly. More often than not, I see an enemy, unload my clip into them, and as I'm shooting them they just decide to instant-melt me with their beast gun. Generally, the best way to play Battlefield 1 and maintain a reasonable KD is with a sniper, observing from far away and then changing location after you've killed a few people, which for me, is boring.… Expand

EA and Dice could not have picked a more perfect time to release this epic World War 1 shooter! This has been a generation of future first-person shooter games with thruster packs andBattlefield 1 is one of the most anticipated games of the year and it did not disappoint! I haven't had this much fun with a battlefield game since Battlefield: Bad Company 2, and everyone is saying this! EA and Dice could not have picked a more perfect time to release this epic World War 1 shooter! This has been a generation of future first-person shooter games with thruster packs and laser weapons, and we have said again and again that we are sick of it! I never, in a million years, expected EA to answer the cries of the gaming community, but they did!

    First, I'd like to talk about the campaign. It is a breath of fresh air for the Battlefield franchise. The past 3 battlefield games have all had terrible campaigns, so much so that they made Call of Duty's futuristic campaigns look good! This is the first campaign I've actually liked since Bad Company 2. What is unique about this campaign, however, is rather than having a string of missions for the player, it has multiple strings of missions called War Stories. In each war story, the player takes on the role of a diverse set of soldiers from different walks of life, serving different countries, all with different personalities, and different goals. It almost feels episodic playing through each story, which makes it more immersive for the player. The graphics look almost real, and the sets and props only help make the game more immersive. I loved the variety of each mission: you play as a tank unit, a pilot, an infantry man, juggernaut, and the levels can range from rush and assault to stealth. The biggest problem with the campaign however is the fact that the war stories are way too short to leave a lasting emotional impression on the player! The average number of missions per story is 3 or 4! It gives you a great story than rips it away from you as soon as you really start getting into it, similar to how Halo 3: ODST's campaign felt! The upside however, unlike Halo 3: ODST, is that there is enough multiplayer content to keep you invested in the game while justifying the $60 you spent on the game. I'd give the campaign a solid 7/10. It's good! Although it could have been a Masterpiece if they had included more into each war story, and even include another war story or two.

    The multiplayer, as expected, is exceptional! Although much of the content seems to be absent at launch, the modes they included are enough to keep players invested till the release of future modes, like Hardcore (which is "coming soon") The weapons are mostly good, but there is a vast lack of variety in the weapons you get! For each class, you pretty much get like 4 or 5 guns with different iterations of them, which fools you into thinking there's at least 12 or 13. The customization is definitely lacking! If you googled a list of weapons used during World War 1, there is a staggering number of weapons that Dice decided not to include into the game, which is b******t in my opinion! The game modes are all very fun! Conquest is back and better than ever! Team Deathmatch and Rush are there for players who want a more chaotic experience! I've enjoyed my play time in Domination, especially. And while I enjoy War Pigeons a lot, it feels more like a camping simulator than anything else. My team took a pigeon one time, set a ton of charges all around a building and just waited inside until we were ready to release our pigeon. We won in nearly 4 minutes. Regardless the multiplayer modes are all a blast to play. The best new feature of the multiplayer is a new mode called Operations! Where you literally take part in key battles, where you play as a member of an army trying to push the enemy lines back or defend them from falling into enemy hands. Once captured, another huge area of the map opens up, and you have to defend/capture that area next, and then again, and then again! These matches can last 2 hours long, maybe more! This is an incredible addition, and one I hope is included in future Battlefield games. I do wish, however, that more operations were included at launch. We only got 4 at launch. That said, there ares something technical issues with the game that have affected every single mode in Battlefield, especially my multiplayer experience. When going to the menu, you often freeze up and get killed before you can close it. It's especially frustrating when my game crashes and I have to restart the game all over again. Loading a game can take up to three minutes for me, although my friends haven't experienced this issue as much as I have. Hopefully, we get a patch soon that fixes these issues. Multiplayer is a 9/10! It's Great

    While Battlefield has its issues, it is a great game; arguably one of the best of 2016! It's a huge step up from Battlefield Hardline. However, it could have been a masterpiece. There is a lot holding it back from getting a 10/10, and it's painful to know that just a little more effort from DICE would have made this game that much more polished!    … Expand

The graphics on Xbox are among the best available, and the sound is perhaps the best in any game I have ever played. There's just something deeply satisfying about the chatter of machinegun fire, the deep booms of field artillery, and the roar of a biplane flying overhead. It's all lovingly crafted. The campaign, though short and choppy, is quite good. It provides a series of vignettes of different aspects of the war. Multiplayer is varied and chaotic, but in a good way.

    CONS: Now, that is not to say that the game is perfect. The campaign is very short; most players will complete all six vignettes in under 10 hours easily. Even the multiplayer doesn't have nearly the amount of maps that would make it truly exemplary. Some simple game mechanics, such as upgrading and unlocking equipment for your multiplayer character, or just what the components of a single-player challenge are, are left totally to the player's devices. They are never explained in any meaningful way. On the whole, it appears that DICE emphasized quality over quantity when designing this game, and that's not inherently bad, but the lack of content does become apparent after 10-20 hours of playtime.

    The biggest flaw in the game, I believe, comes in design. There are just some very bizarre choices in many places, which don't necessarily detract from the experience, but are still head-scratching nonetheless. Namely:

    - The game goes to great lengths to portray the Great War as a World War, but they forego most of the truly global aspects of the war. All of the campaign episodes and MP maps are located in Europe and the Mediterranean region.

    - The war began in August 1914. You wouldn't know this from the campaign or MP scenarios. The earliest campaign available chronologically is the Gallipoli mission, set in spring 1915. Four of the six campaign missions and more than half of the Operations in MP are set in 1918. There were a number of scenarios that could have been set in the early war period from 1914-1916, but they aren't there.

    - Did you know that France and Russia fought in World War I? You wouldn't by playing this game. This is just ridiculous, especially when you consider that France and Russia lost between 3 and 5 million men killed between them! There were numerous scenarios available to the developers to highlight French and Russian contributions to the war. The French are begging for a Verdun scenario, and Russians could have been shown in a Brusilov Offensive campaign mission. But instead, they might as well be invisible. In contrast, the United States is highlighted in fully one-third of the campaign missions, and the U.S. lost 100,000 men killed in the war.

    This laughable omission will be rectified in DLC, I would hope, but to pay additional $ for the inclusion of nations so central to the war is kind of a slap in the face.

    For those reasons, it gets an 8/10 from me. Shooter fans will enjoy it, while history fans will be conflicted.    … Expand

    I like it. Campaign is good. Graphics are very nice. Sound is awesome. Multiplayer is very fun.

    A couple minor gripes.
    1. I miss c4, would be nice to have sticky dynamite.
    2. Using the AT rocket in prone takes some getting use to.
    3. It can be quite challenging taking out a heavy tank if your team is full of ID ten tangos.

    SUMMARY:
    Easily worth 60 dollars.

    Finally, a battlefield that evokes that same excellent feeling the Bad Company used to give me. With a serious tone and the new Operations mode perfectly complementing the Battlefield setting, we finally have the next-gen FPS we've been longing for.

    dice did a really fantastic job with battlefield 1 at the time off this review I would say its game of the year contender for sure
    campaign for years we had mediocre campaign modes from bf3 bf4 and hardline but they actually made a great campaign mode this time
    other than war story no 4 I didn't feel like an unrealistic one man army which is a thing that's been overplayed for years in    dice did a really fantastic job with battlefield 1 at the time off this review I would say its game of the year contender for sure
    campaign for years we had mediocre campaign modes from bf3 bf4 and hardline but they actually made a great campaign mode this time
    other than war story no 4 I didn't feel like an unrealistic one man army which is a thing that's been overplayed for years in first person shooters
    the story of all the war stories was excellent
    some off the characters where actual war hero's in ww1
    your ai buddy's can actually kill enemy's for once finally
    the only bad things was one crash on war story no 5 when I killed 2 flame frower guys at once
    and 1 time I got stuck on a tank in war story no 1 and had to restart from checkpoint and only lost like 15 seconds of progress
    and the fact that all five war stories are only 4 5 to 6 hours long:(
    multiplayer
    overall it is a fantastic experience
    the attack planes are way better in bf 1 than the jets in bf 3 and bf4 since they are way easier to learn and a lot more fun for people who couldn't even drive the jets in bf 3 and bf4 and lets face it that was most of the fans
    the blimp armored train and the battle ship do make the matches a lot more interesting since their only given to the losing team however because off this I don't think their will be an e sports for this game thought but its a positive still for 99% of the fans
    the tanks are now at least a 2 man job to destroy one unless its the light tank which I think was a good change
    the land ship and heavy tank take team work to be a menace to deal with on the battlefield and the artillery truck being a menace to deal with at long range and the light tank being a fun tank to use if your playing by yourself I personally find the artillery truck is the best one on most maps
    the gun play is fantastic the kill times are slower in this game then in previous titles which dose make sense because of the slower rate of fire of the weapons In ww1 you will find you will win more gun fights in bf1 based on skill and having the numbers in a gun fight then just having a better rate of fire weapon then the other guy your trying to kill which is a good change of pace
    overall I thing this game will be the best battlefield game to play for 90% of the fans however thought I think the more compeative fans will like bf 3 and bf4 better    … Expand

    Never before has a vintage style wargame of this scale been brought to the masses with such high production values and beautiful, raw immersion. It's a welcome departure from the trend of modern high-tech, cartoony, or sci fi shooters that have dominated the FPS over the last few years. Developer DICE took a chance on going against the grain, delivering a much needed breath of fresh air toNever before has a vintage style wargame of this scale been brought to the masses with such high production values and beautiful, raw immersion. It's a welcome departure from the trend of modern high-tech, cartoony, or sci fi shooters that have dominated the FPS over the last few years. Developer DICE took a chance on going against the grain, delivering a much needed breath of fresh air to the franchise and genre itself. It's no surprise to me the game is a blast to play, with its gritty realism, cooperative play, and classy presentation.

    Matches are based around large scale maps that encourage team play and creativity, with a wealth of weapons, vehicles, aircraft, and stationary emplacements that allow your team to tackle objectives with tons of options at your disposal. Being a team based game, your experience will largely hinge on how well your squad, consisting of five members, are able to communicate (via mic or through in game objective orders). A team that stays focused and works together can be formidable and change the tide, but there are still plenty of options for lone wolfs who want to snipe, pilot a single seat aircraft or tank, etc.

    In terms of graphics and sound, the game has no rival currently, especially when considering the huge scale of the environments that accommodate up to 64 players. The maps are stunning, diverse, and dynamic, with weather conditions changing throughout each map. No two battles on the same map ever play identically, and you are sure to walk away from each match with lots of "that was amazing" kind of moments. I hope BF1 inspires other devs to take risks in providing new experiences for players, even if it means going back in time. With games like COD losing its identity trying to be all things to all people, its nice seeing a focused game with its own identity and emphasis on skill and team work show the industry how it's done and what mature players really want. I can't stop playing and thinking about BF1, so this is a perfect score for me. It's that good.    … Expand

    EA and DICE have done an amazing job bringing something fresh to the table in picking WW1 as the game's theme. Multiplayer is probably the best thing aspect of the game, and the well-built maps and cool game modes will keep me coming back to Battlefield 1 for the coming months.

    There is no game that is able to deliver such an immersive war atmosphere and a multiplayer experience on such a massive scale like Battlefield 1.

    With many games feeling hampered by a desire to try and blend authenticity with sensationalism, Battlefield 1 is a hell of a lot of fun – a visual powerhouse and a fine return to form for DICE that’s sadly hampered by stretches of extreme frustration caused by the studio’s desire to take one step too many into the past.
