While each war story has its own direction, you aren’t stuck doing the same thing for several missions. I jumped right into the pilot seat and did the aerial story first, which ended up being my least favourite of the bunch. Best of all, you can play them in whatever order you like. Instead of assuming the role of a single character and seeing World War 1 through their eyes, each war story brings you to a different theatre of war, each with its own unique angle.
It’s absolutely fantastic!Īfter a brief yet punishing prologue, you’re dropped on a map screen where you can choose one of five war stories to play through. I’m thrilled to report that Battlefield 1 has broken these cycles, and stands above all other shooters to come out in 2016. Battlefield games typically have weak single player experiences, and at least during the first month or so, multiplayer is unstable and often unplayable. But given the franchise’s track record, I had my reservations. Since the first trailer was released, Battlefield 1 has been at the top of my most anticipated list.
From its emotionally driven single player campaign, to its massive scale multiplayer battles. Battlefield 1 is the Battlefield game I’ve been wanting all these years.
