    Ignoring all the past controversy, is this game fun? Answer: no. The game balance is terrible, as only two of the classes are worth playing. The content is poor, with large amounts just recycled from BF1, eg the guns. The gameplay just feels empty and lifeless somehow - there's no sense of a battle to the fights. The balance on the gamemodes like operations is unforgivable. The only thingIgnoring all the past controversy, is this game fun? Answer: no.

The only thing stopping me giving it a 0 is that the graphics are pretty good, even though performance is still bad even with top of the end kit. If you do decide to buy on PC, try to ask others with a similar spec if they can actually run it properly. As for the single player, I haven't finished all of them yet but so far the game just fails to capture any of the magic that bf1 had. I'm going to be selling my copy soon. I don't usually bother to review games but this one was such a disappointment that I just had to. Expand

    I´ve played 15 hours ... Boring maps, very similar too, Bridges all around... Boring... If you don´t camp, you are one of fews who does not do it ... with Patrol you have to secure area end move, I miss the Adrenaline the Emotion of BF1. Impossible to put down a Plane with anti-air weapons. NOTHING to do with 2ww.

    В игру играют 10 задротов, на которых Вас будет кидать каждый бой. И каждый бой в любом режиме Вас эти задроты будут Tpaxaть прям на респе, где бы он не был. С разворота на 180. С ножа, с пистолета, со снайпы - одни и те же люди. И на них никаких нельзя пожаловаться в игре (Xbox). Нет никакого SBMM. На Xbox против геймпада играют с клавомыши и это нельзя отключить.В игру играют 10 задротов, на которых Вас будет кидать каждый бой.

    This game is absolutely historical inaccurate. It doesn't worth my money. For example Tiger tank at Tobruk.

    Evidently they have forgotten to add vehicles to this Battlefield game, one of the cornerstones of the series. I guess they'll add those in 6-8 months when Dice finally gets this pile of garbage running like it should. I am really totally and utterly disappointed with this entry.

    I love female gamers and avatars; however, they need to be historically accurate in order to make them believable and fun to play (think older, chain-smoking female French partisans for example). This game's focus makes it feel like Fortnight. The only question left to ask - where's the bus?

    J’ai pas bien compris pourquoi ils ont mis une gonzesse sur l’affiche même si on peut bien sûr jouer une nana dans le multi à kévins… mais tout de même… tout ça pour l’inclusivité paritaire, c’est fort de café et de culot.

    Mais bon, de la part des connards de DICE qui avaient mis un Noir sur l’affiche de leur Battlefield 1 (celui sur la Première) on ne peut plus s’étonner de rien ! toujours est-il que ce Battletron reste fidèle à sa réputation (de Battlefield étron) avec sa jouabilité désagréable, ses micro-transactions prédatrices… et ses « nouveautés » qui loupent le coche à chaque fois.

    Par exemple, de grands niveaux mais sans véhicule disponible, obligent à crapahuter comme un crétin d’un bout à l’autre de ce putain de niveau ; ensuite, l’introduction de l’infiltration (heureusement optionnelle) est à côté de la plaque et totalement antinomique de ce jeu de tir pour décérébrés ; c’est en outre si mal fait et si inexploitable qu’on s’en bat l’oeil pour rester poli.

    Il reste la technique très réussie et spectaculaire, à 60 im/s sans coup férir qui plus est : ça ne vaut pas une messe mais bien un bon point ! malgré des temps de chargement très longs, cependant. Mais que c’est rapidement lourdingue, ces « niveaux » sans aucun lien en guise de campagne ! des « récits de guerre » qu’ils appellent ça… Mais au fait, maudit Battletron, tu n’entends rien ? c’est la poubelle qui crie ton nom ! alors vas-y voir… pour voir.

    Its frustrating, a meatgrinder. Most of the time you are dead. Bombers are extreme Powerfull. Time to kill is too short. 2 of 8 maps are good. Dice did a very bad Job. Ich would give this **** peace of software back, if i could.

    Bought this game after it got heavily discounted in it's first week and I feel I still payed to much. The campaign was to short and not rememberable in the slightest.

    DICE have lost their way. The graphics/sound on this game are top notch, the gunplay is good & TTK is solid - the rest is a horrid mess. This was a cynical, cash grab, rushed release that launched with many bugs and very little content. The game went to 50% off very quickly for a reason.

    Simple as this, if your a FPS noob or a casual gamer you will enjoy. If by chance your a battlefield veteran you shouldnt waste your money, just keep playing BF4 till WW3 comes out.

    Um jogo que não tem nada a ver com a realidade da segunda guerra mundial. Inserindo mulheres onde nunca teve no front. Perdendo totalmente a noção da realidade e da história correta. Não vale a pena.

    A solid game that manages to ruin well rounded mechanics with: horrendous maps, a stupid revive system, a historically false (and wrong) feminism. The game is a solid 7/10, but the whole “women fought too, and people with prosthesis too!” Thing ruined it.

    Gameplay: 8/10
    Graphics: 9/10
    Maps: 3/10
    New elements: 3/10

    Another brand killed by political correctness, SJW pandering, leftist propaganda and historical inaccurate story mode.
    Don't forget they also called gamers uneducated and that we shouldn't buy their games if we didn't agree with their politics.
    Always remember to vote with your wallets. Hit them where it hurts them the most.

    SJW revisionist trash. Do not support

    Battlefield games are played predominantly by men and boys. And WW2 was a war predominantly fought by men and boys. Idiots trying so hard to be "woke". You just can't mess with that iconic WW2 stuff we've seen in history books, old combat footage, historical photos. You just can't mess with it

    What in the world is this game? A joke. A disgrace to World War 2 veterans. I can't believe I got this pile of garbage. Microtransactions galore, same looks and textures from Battlefield 1 in 2016. Poor AI in the campaign which, by the way was one of the worst stories I've played from DICE. No interesting plot, no rememberable characters. Go to Point A, Point B, come back and repeat. WhyWhat in the world is this game? A joke. A disgrace to World War 2 veterans.

    Ignore all of the controversy and how EA treated its own customers (astonishingly bad PR), this game is just not good. Battlefield 3 10/10 - Battlefield 4 8.5/10 - Battlefield 1 8.5/10 - Battlefield V 2/10. Just an absolute embarrassment of a game in every way.

    EA is the best company,
    when it comes to trashing and insulting their fans and customers on a regular basis. They are not kidding around, let me tell ya. Its hard work and they mean business, because maintaining their ultimate troll-publisher status isn't easy.

    I'll give it a zero since I was going to purchase this game, looked very much forward to dropping the cash for it yet the EA Creative Officer called customers ignorant.

    Well, fine, his opinion. Mine is to never purchase an EA game again until he's fired/sacked.

    What away to ruin a great series (course talking original Battlefield before they turned it into COD and ruined it forever).

    It’s unfinished, but I’m highly optimistic that it will improve as new content releases and its Battlefield multiplayer at its finest, and that alone may sell the game for the longtime veteran considering what’s to come. I very reluctantly recommend Battlefield V in its current state, but I must stress my disappointment that EA and DICE willing released a game that feels kind of unfinished.

    What's here is enough to be going on with, but we'll have to wait till next year's updates and in particular, that possibly seismic battle-royale mode, to discover whether this is truly a Battlefield that stands apart. [Jan 2019, p.114]

    If you’re a fan of Battlefield then there is every reason to jump in with this year’s title, but if you want to experience the game as the developers have obviously intended, I suggest you hold off, enjoy the other amazing games released this year and come back to Battlefield V in about six months’ time when it’s no longer in its current state of being a glorified beta with a triple-A price tag.
