*** Official Battlefield: Hardline Thread ***

I've had a few games and so far not enjoying it. I'm not sure if its the maps or just the general gameplay but at the moment it's not making me want to play it any more..
 
THe maps feel really small..you get shot out before you can really see who is coming at you.

Also lots of insta death like the first one when it came our broken.

Im not sure what the point of the game mode with all the cars just crashing into each other.
 
Indeed, BF4 TDM is far better than this, and with that you have the option of playing bigger maps if you want to.
 
Even when you're winning its not fun. My last game my entire squad stayed on the roof camping.

I just join another squad if that happens. I do a lot of squad hopping in BF4 until I find one that is playing together and going for objectives. BF has always been a bit like that. Just shrug it off and move on.
 
This is pretty bad for a new game.

It looks no better and worse in some of the levels.
One shot kill no matter where it hits is still in the game.
Im getting rubber banding already on levels.
THe limited vehicals are a complete waste of time, they barly do anything, I don't even use them to drive to points.
The "24" style countdown to spawn back in annoys me, as does the huge span in time, between player kill then the seconds to count down..that does not work for this stylke of game.

Theirs no way im paying new game money for this, this is paid DLC at the very best.
 
Sigh.. Free up 60Gb for an 11Gb download.... won't download due to needing another 300Mb!

Leave the '11Gb' download running as I grab a shower - return to an installed game... only to now watch a "BETA TRIAL" message slowly tick up a percentage!

Well done Dice and EA, really winning this long term Battlefield fan over.

Edit: glad I waited its amazing!!! Not really, its utter dog ****, like a fan made mod for Battlefield, not a full retail game. Bargain bin at best for me.

WHats with the terrible blur put on the screen when that awful dust storm rolls in?

This is absolute dog poo, theirs not one redeeming thing about this at all.

They still get the medal for the most terrible menus when trying to select and customise your character.

WHy on earth do I get "money" that I have to waste my time to get unlockable, it was TERRIBLE in BF4 and theirs no point to it.
My Thug sounds like he lifted straight from Boys in the Hood, with some call out dialogue cringe worthy.
All the character models look last gen.
One FIM stinger is enough to bring down the chopper completely.....one.

It feels and plays like Medal Of Honour to me, only MOD had better sounds and FX.

And their seems to be no destruction at all.

It makes the game look like a ps2 when it happens :D

I didn't actually mind playing it. You kill and die very quickly which is nice.
Will I buy it? Not sure yet. Depends if anybody else does.

I dont think it's the size of the map that's at fault here. It's just badly designed. Bad Company 2 (on Rush) involved small sections of map at a time and it was great fun. To me, there's just too many routes in to and through the building and generally not enough cover. The criminals tend to get split up as there's so many different ways to go, and the police just tend to camp outside and wait for the criminals to leave the bank. On the Police team, it's actually pretty easy to get in to the bank and then run around shooting criminals in the back - the building is big enough that you don't tend to get pinned down, and you don't tend to find more than maybe two enemies at a time.

I'm not a fan. I prefer tighter maps where I don't have to worry about my flanks and my rear so much. I feel cheap when I'm playing Police, and cheated when I'm playing Criminals. I'll stick to Metro and Operation Locker for my infantry-only, indoor-warfare fix. Those maps function beautifully.

Yea theirs to many ins and outs, I mostly played the conquest map, and its the same, only with small housing that is totally indestructible, which is just stupid as snipers rocket guys can camp and not be touched.
