Battlefield Hardline
Battlefield Hardline
I've really enjoyed it so far, the sound assets are really nice. I love sniping in this game, AWM + magnum round + RDS = OMG. However one thing I don't like is how easy heli's are to take down, take damage from practically all gun fire. Heist seems like a mess of a mode, most the time I play it I'm playing with complete retards and we lose so quickly. I'm really enjoying hotwire. However I preferred blood money from the original beta, don't know why. The easter egg reload animations are awesome, can't wait until a do one, shame it's only a 1/10,000 chance of it happening, I was hoping it would be more than that like 1/1000. Overall I think the game is solid, can't wait to see what they have done with the single player aspect, as visceral games are much better story tellers than DICE imo. HOWEVER 1 THING I HATE IS THE FUCKING FLINCHING IT'S SO DAMN UNPREDICTABLE
The games the best yet! I pre ordered it after one day after playing the beta. The game is just awesome
The police/crime angle still feels somewhat unclear and unconvincing, yet I find the gunplay more appealing than in BF4. I’m growing frustrated with the Business-Focused "Premium" approach, and I doubt I’ll purchase this at launch or in full price.
As discussed earlier, if you liked Bad Company 2, you'll enjoy this one too. I'm planning to reserve a server for the opening day. It's just $48.
I actually saw that Easter egg animation where the guy gives you a new mag. It didn't have shadow play, but I like the hotwire mode.
I'm not sure if I like it. My top pick is BF3 and I really appreciate its straightforwardness compared to Hardline. What draws me in is the small details like character movement, the sprint animations, and the way he holds the gun. I don't like Hardline as much because of those aspects. Hotwire is a mixed bag—it's both great and frustrating. It has a lot of promise, but C4 traps and grenade launchers really break my immersion. Still, I keep the grenade launchers since they demand some skill. Graphics? I'm not sure if I'm missing something or if BF3 actually has better visuals. Yes, the textures and environments are more refined in Hardline, though I miss the scratches on the gun in BF3. I still remember being amazed by the gameplay trailer from BF3, especially the lightning effects highlighting the gun's damage. It still sticks with me today. I don't feel the same way about Hardline.
I'm really enjoying Hardline. I appreciate the variety and will keep playing BF3 and BF4. The zipline idea in Hardline is great for quick rescues and escape strategies.
