Battlefield is back in shape and more so with fresh theme of the first Great War! After a long time, the campaign is successful and multiplayer is traditionally excellent. So, this year your choice is set! [Issue #269]
Battlefield 1 offers hands down the best graphics of any shooter, nay, any game to date. While its single-player-campaign is – again – unnecessary drivel, as short as it is forgettable, the multi-player-offering is in a league of its own. If you only buy one shooter this year, make it Battlefield 1.
This game encapsulates the horrors of the First World War. It mixes historical accuracy with gameplay so the game isn't a waiting simulator inside a trench. The game continues to have the 4 signature classes from 4, each with weapons inspired by the great war. Since this game simply can't add an assault rifle, DICE creatively used prototype weapons, such as the Hellriegel, to fill these roles. There is plenty of variety in the maps, from the trenches of the western front to the mountains of Italy. Each map feels unique. Some maps encapsulate trench warfare, such as the Saint Quentin scar, while others are open fields in the middle east. Overall, the gunplay, graphics, and map variety as well as the limited historical accuracy made this game a 10/10, easily the best battlefield game in history.
Not only does DICE deliver their best campaign to date this side of Bad Company. It also pushes online-multiplayer to new heights with atmospheric battles and intense gunfights.
Battlefield 1 delivers on almost every promise made, and it sure is one of the best FPSs of the end of the year. We only wish it could have had fewer bugs and a bit more historic accuracy, but as long as the gameplay is addictive, we're satisfied.
Close combat, ragdoll explosions, mud, poison gas, and the violence of one of the bloodiest conflicts in history mix with pigeon babysitting. War Pigeons is a good summary of Battlefield 1 in general.
It has very functional scenarios and good graphics. The career mode is interesting, where 5 different stories are told. However, the game is not as convincing as its rival Call of Duty WWII.
Certainly one of the worst war games out there. Tragic feeling of shooting. Haos. NO logic. Tank guys with flamethrowers. Idiotic AI behavior. Distorting historical facts. It's hard to say anything good about this game except for the graphics, which can also slow down at 144 fps.
Played this in beta and it was a mess, thought I'd try it out again after seeing so many people regard it as one of the best battlefields, it's still not worth your time.
