*** Battlefield 1 ***

Reading these comments is making me change my mind about downloading it! Could be worse! A beta game which being mint but the actual release was utter crap :D

Nah, go ahead and download it and make your own mind up. Some people are loving it, but were biased before going into it. Some people are not liking it but were biased before going into it. Some people think its just average. Some people will rant how crap it is, then still buy it at release and end up putting hundreds of hours into it (its a fun forum game to make bookmarks for all the ones who say they dont like it, so that you can hyperlink it when release comes and they buy it :D ) , some people will rave about how great it is and then stop playing after a week (this is something which seems very common with MMOs for example)

Point is..play it for yourself, see if you like it or not. If you do, then thats a win and you have a fun new game to play. If you dont, then you have saved yourself some money and move on to the next game :D
 
Looks lovely, and runs very well

Only played a few matches i dont think this was the best map choice, i wanted a proper gritty map, but thats ok

I agree something feels a bit flat about it, and it could be the comparisons to swbf. I do think bf4 went too far with weapons and attachments etc, so glad to see this has pulled it back a bit
 
Wonder if the last day they release another map, would be interested in seeing the one in the original vids with the blimp.
 
First impressions

Alone 5/10
With two friends on comms 6.5/10

Agree with the comments that it feels too much like SWBF. Bad map with overpowered train and sniper fest?

Maybe it's a combination of getting older and rose tinted goggles but BF2 at the time was a hell of lot more fun.
 
So unless someone requests a revive you don't see the revive symbol on their head. Makes a medics job difficult. I need to investigate this as Delvey died and I wasn't even aware until I turned around and saw him lying on the floor with no revive symbol on his body. I still managed to get him up though.

Yep confirmed the new system is retarded.

Checked Reddit and people mentioned it there also. Currently one of the highest upvoted threads

Also from the Alpha they didn't implement some QOL issues

- Round ends you don't have the "banter" chat box
- Round Ends you cannot customize your loadout.

Battlefield needs more arma and less cod if that makes sense imo.

They need to go semi sim, say what you like but when 1942 and vietnam and bf2 came out it wasn't considered all arcadey and suchlike.
 
Really wish they went with a vietnam setting, would have been a heck of a lot more fun and just better overall for weapons, vehicles etc. imo.

i am thinking and hoping that will be next. BF vietnam was epic and not the bad company one ha.

I do hold out hope for this though, Just had a right old fashioned round.

fingers crossed when the weapon unlocks happen it will balance back down a bit.
 
I love it, people don't half like to moan!
Crank the sound, put headphones on and its such a visceral experience.
The medic thing is a vast improvement - if I don't want to be revived I don't ask, simple!

BF2/2142 are still my fav Battlefields. 3/4 and now 1 haven't recaptured it for me. 1st impressions are yh it's fun but it feels a bit arcadey/shallow and matches don't last that long. I'm not a fan of the train and the tanks appear to be way too strong. Far too many snipers as well.

Maybe another map would have showcased the game better.

im not feeling the cod in this, granted it is only one map but early bf games were always big open maps (with built up areas around) but more and more so it became more close quarters. BF3 and BF4 were the games they made to go after cod (cough cough domination).

it's growing on me slowly but not fast enough :(

started trying to play how i used to play the early bf's which has made it a bit more fun.
 
Erm terrible game, wow I really did think it would be good, but no this was a poor game. It runs great, it looked ok but wow I just didn't think it was a good game at all.

It also felt bland, it looked boring, and the map was boring that I played. I got confused as to if I was just playing a re skinned starwars battlefront, wow I am truly shocked how awful it was

to those enjoying it, I guess its not for me. The tanks were terrible to drive, the snipers are everywhere, which takes a lot of fun out of it, and overall it just felt bland.

Not overly keen on this myself. I was quite looking forward to getting home from work and firing it up. It just doesn't feel right, even just the way the model holds the gun and movements seem a bit off. Perhaps it's just me, I need to mess around with the settings and give it another go tomorrow.

Glad I didn't pre-order anyway. Spent a fortune on Hardline + Premium and played it for a month, tops.
 
5/10 for me. Not at all impressed, absolutely shocking how they have destroyed infantry combat first and foremost. So much wrong with the game. Who the hell is making these games of late? Must have a 12 year old designing it.
 
the land crab hahah so deadly.

was sniping not been kiled 5 or 6 kills then stole the enemies land crab.the enemy thought thats ours i didnt move just one shotted every enemy as they spawned :D

15 kills later still laughing :p

Strange game, it felt really low budget and as I said , I really did think I was playing a Star Wars battlefront game just re skinned. I also didn't like the movements, it all felt wrong, I just couldn't get on with it.

This is a real shame, as the setting had huge potential. I wonder if its just the map and DICE have shown off a poor map?

I think it's a poor map which is why i'm not writing it off yet. However, there are issues as always and is there enough time to rectify it before release? I'm not sure.
 
Can't put my finger on it but doesn't feel right. Odd because playing it on ps4 it looks good, and everything feels quite slick. Balance seems to be all over the place though.
