Everyone needs to boycott this game then they might actually start listening to the proper Battlefield fans, cops and robbers shouldn't be a battlefield game, it shouldn't even be part of the franchise! Remove the K/D ratio as well as that makes the game more boring as to many care about that, its supposed to be about winning rounds not boosting your own K/D ratio.

Amen to that.
Problem is there are no proper Battlefield fans anymore, EA have a new target audience in mind and DICE have purposely lowered the threshold to cater for them. You should read some of the responses where veteran battlefield gamers have said that the ttk is too low.
I'd post a link but I'd get suspended again.
Hardline isn't a bad game but it isn't Battlefield's large open warfare.
no the difference is your opinion means nothing.
i don't mean that in a bad way but the 1 percent who want those features don't work at making a game now.
it is make game that masses can play easily. so the game sells.
Hardlines not bad it aint bfbc2/bf2 but in reality you wont get them again. so just play or dont.
its just like cod. cod 1/uo utter perfection. now look at the modern games.

So who's opinion matters then?

I very well know that the structure and team at DICE have changed over the years and there are only a handful of original guys left like David Sirland who is steering the CTE, but Hardline has an identity crisis and isn't a "Battlefield Game"
We'll see in a few months time how well this game does, not only from how well the servers are populated pov but from the E-Sports side too.

To be fair there have been several battlefield titles which don't strictly comply with the battlefield formula. It's not a bad thing. How many hours have you played manju?
If it gives the devs time to think about and build a BF5 then I'm happy. In the mean time there is BF3 and BF4 to play which are both decent games IMO.
I'm almost rank 40 with about 9 hours playtime and I think I'll be buying this one, playing BF4 as well until the new starwars comes out.

bf isnt a esl comp game. wont be on frostbite engine.
the reason they done hardline is because they dropped Medal of honor for a more modern audience.
so it will sell well. regardless.
doesn't matter if you wont buy it. for every vet who don't buy modern bf games 10 new will. that's how they see it. so saying stuff bf makes no difference as the audience its aimed at will buy.

I've played enough to form an opinion and see what the differences are, don't know the exact hours. Like I said it's not a bad game but it just isn't battlefield. The lower ttk is great for hiest mode and the level design is good. If Rush has plenty of flanks and not just an open area like in BF4 that could be good too.
Visceral have done things that encourages teamplay through their cash system which is great. Also little things like not being able to revive someone who died by a headshot, explosives or knife is a good addition. The longer med bag redeploy time is something I need to get used too.

I don't think this looks as good as BF4 graphically yet the performance is all over the place for me, BF4 is a lot better. Anyone else in the same boat? Most people seem to say it runs better than BF4..

I think i'm the only one enjoying this game, Haven't really enjoyed a BF game this much since BFBC2.

I'm confused. I haven't seen any boats in Hardline?

Is this improved over the last beta then?
I played this earlier, not bad, i like the ganster music you catch bits of. Its really fast paced with the movement which im unsure of. Dont think its worth £40+ though.
also its funny how many people are wishing for more BFBC2, i remember people hating on it calling it a console bf.
How time changes thing...

It's the same with every BF! I remember when BF3 came out and everyone was moaning about BC2 being better!

Absolutely whoring the attack chopper kills whilst no one knows how to counter them. Averaging 10-20 kills per run but as soon as people start unlocking stuff and trying things then attack helis will become flying coffins.
Still not buying it though.

I dont get the hate. If this takes away the casual player away from the main battlefield series (it wont, but it'll preoccupy them till BF5) then surely thats a win for the battlefield purists?
I loved BF2, wish they'd just stuck with that and improved it, focus on what makes them what they are, rather than looking around and trying to blur the lines with other games so its neither one or the other.
That said, i just played 3hrs with friends, and had a ton of fun. Its not battlefield, no, battlefield has a stick up its A!! Hardlines is just fun, it doesnt take itself too seriously, and for that reason its actually enjoyable.
Where they went wrong was forcing the BF name on the series, but then Bad Company did that, it did it for the console crowd only before BC2, people only complained cos it wasnt BF3 and they wanted BF3.
If you just ignore the fact that they're blatantly riding the Battlefield wave, and accept it simply as 'Hardline' in the same way MoH was its own series, then i really cant see what the issue is.
Its like FIFA and FIFA Street. Street was extremely arcade, but you knew that and you bought it based on the titles merits, not because it had FIFA in the title and you buy all the FIFA games. If BF players cant seperate 2 different titles because of a shared word that means something else to them, well more fool them.
The Battlefield name has been dragged through the mud plenty lately, so maybe we dont judge a book by its cover, but by the quality of its contents. What difference does a name make?
