Battlefield 1

The series was on the right track regarding single player campaigns with Bad Company 1 and the dropped the ball till the barely connected (as it was secretly a stealth game) Hardline. This semi-reboot of the series though got about every single thing right that a shooter can do. The campaign is divided is 5,5 short stores that greatly vary in play stile. Avanti Savoia was my favorite, due to the well done flashback structure, and i liked Nothing Is Written the least, as the sneaking didn't feel right. The game also somewhat demonizes the German forces and don't expect much narrative depth. All of them are still memorable but the player jumping gimmick from the prologue should have been feature more than once. The unfairly overlooked Modern Combat spin-off introduced it btw. The multiplayer is pretty much what one would think it is. Meaning that it is way too fast to fit into the period, the guns are also too precise, but it works well, so who am i to argue. The new and very involved mode Operations is the highlight here. I can only conclude that this is the best overall shooter of the generation, with CoD: BO 3 as the runner up. 9/10

Since this is a website primarily focused on movies, i am focusing on the campaign of Battlefield 1. From a cinematic and storytelling standpoint, Battlefield 1 has excelled where not many games have. The campaign consists of a few distinct stories of individuals throughout the span of the first World War. Battlefield 1 shows us a more personal view of war as seen through the eyes of the people who fought in it. Keeping in mind that it is still historical fiction, the stories and gameplay stick to mix of well crafted realism and exciting vignettes of action. From the introductory cinematics and mission i could tell that this game was something special. Being shown the harsh reality of war, and the humanness of all who fought in the war really brings me to a place that i haven't seen personally in a game; i was even getting a little choked up. The individual episodes of each character you play as have an undeniably cinematic feel to them, and blend both cutscenes and gameplay well. The characters and incredibly well acted and therefore believable in whichever role they play. The score is well crafted: moving when it needs to be and dramatic when called for. It has that nostalgic, 20th century military vibe, without being too in your face about it.

Battlefield 1 takes a great stride in wonderful gameplay and stellar storytelling that differentiates it from its predecessors and forces you to view it separate from any other game, as its own unique experience. I would recommend this game to anyone who appreciates attention to detail and history, and can enjoy a few well crafted stories.

The game's campaign mode (single player) really gives me the chills! The most gruesome, yet realistic and accurate World War 1 game to date.

The campaign focuses on many different aspects of the war which gives the player many stories throughout the game. Everything from battles in Somme to the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. Instead of focusing on one protagonist, Battlefield 1 focuses on multiple, which makes the game that more unique from other FPS.

I recommend this game most for it's unique and challenging campaign story (play it on hard setting!) I haven't played the multiplayer mode so much, but I can tell you that it's all postive about that as well. FYI I care most about the single player in video games.

Singleplayer: 9,5/10 Multiplayer: 8/10

I hope to see other companies attempt to make more World War 1 games. Greetings for Norway

All tho I HATE ea this game is just MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MASTERPIECE this is what a true battlefield game is,I have read the books of Lawrence of Arabia and it's accurate to the original kinda, the stories are true, the stories are so inspiring, of man the multiplayer is just AMAZING I recommend it oh of the best

Pros:

• Good campaign-stories
• Great Gameplay
• Amazing graphics
• Online multiplayer still fun
• Multiplayer Operations is great new mode
• Realistic audio and sound work

Cons:

• Campaign is pretty short
• Grindy multiplayer progression

Verdict: Finally a good WWII shooter, thou not perfect but overall a good (but short) campaign paired with a good multiplayer is valued to a very solid Battlefield game that is worth buying.

8/10
