Game Overview
Battlefield 4™ is the genre-defining action blockbuster made from moments that blur the line between game and glory. Fueled by the next-generation power and fidelity of Frostbite™ 3, Battlefield 4 provides a visceral, dramatic experience unlike any other.
Only in Battlefield can you demolish the buildings shielding your enemy. Only in Battlefield will you lead an assault from the back of a gun boat. Battlefield grants you the freedom to do more and be more while playing to your strengths and carving your own path to victory.
In addition to its hallmark multiplayer, Battlefield 4 features an intense, dramatic character-driven campaign that starts with the evacuation of American VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad's struggle to find its way home.
There is no comparison. Immerse yourself in the glorious chaos of all-out war, found only in Battlefield.
Battlefield 4 is the answer to the Electronic Arts game series Call of Duty already very global. The launch of Battlefield 4 has been highly anticipated by the FPS fans around the world and if you do not know ever heard about Battlefield at all then chances are you live in a cave :). But whether this game managed to do it this time or is this just a new series of reforms which will also be forgotten quickly?
Gameplay: Still Together With Battlefield Previous
If you've played a previous series and you will not find many surprises in Battlefield 4. Even if you never played any shooter game that Battlefield 4 will feel very familiar. You will be driving a vehicle of war, blowing up walls, shoot enemy tanks and hundreds of soldiers. As with the previous series in Battlefield 4 of this series, the game feels more open than with Call of Duty in terms of approach to the war, but still can not be called open world game.
The control feels accurate as usual and every weapon I shot feels weight and powerful. But that does not mean all tasted the same weapons, of course, each weapon has the "feel" of her each and you'll find plenty of options in the series this time. In the story modes you can select the weapon you've found during play when accessing ammo crate, so it was not a weapon lying around you that can be used.
It will not initially be too pronounced, but as you play so you can experiment with a variety of weapons that you have encountered situations. You will still carry two weapons and two explosives at the same time, but there is no limit what weapons you can carry.
in Battlefield 4 game is fairly good. They will use a protection well and will try to get you out of the sanctuary by throwing grenades or twisting of the side (flanking). The difficulty to kill the enemy (and killed enemies) depending on the difficulty level you choose. In Battlefield 4 you will not see too many enemies standing in an open area, shooting at you, walk towards the walls, or do not shoot when it was face to face as you often encounter in the game with an AI that is less intelligent. AI of the troops as well as of the smart, they will run in front of you when down a street but when you start shooting they will move sideways, AI troops are also not stupid to be stuck in a place and impede your journey.
I did find some bugs when playing, but most of these bugs can be solved by updating graphics card drivers. Some other bug I found was floating corpses and a bug that makes me die when climbing stairs. However bug is rare and does not bother me when playing at all. It is true that there are a lot of innovations in the gameplay of Battlefield 4, but I think this game does not need them. Failure Battlefield 3 was contributed by the story of the weak and fortunately it was repaired in Battlefield 4.
Story: Acting Alone Actually Bit Is Enough
Battlefield 3 has a quality multiplayer gameplay is very exciting, but the single-player mode was lacking something. The players clearly expect a very fantastic stories of famous game like this, but unfortunately the story is bland and easily forgotten. Battlefield 4 fix this in almost every side, Battefield 4 offers a powerful story mode with a definite character name you'll remember a long time even after finishing the game.
You will play as Daniel Recker, member of the US Special Forces team named Tombstone. Tombstone is one of the military group trying to overcome a military coup in China due to murder Jin Jie, politicians are voicing system change in China and potentially great country to become China's next president. As a result, Shanghai became chaotic and Commander Zhang invaded this city and seize the leadership.
Like most shooters, you will act as a low-level members of the military and you will spend a lot of time with bullets and grenades, and instead of arguing with Chinese politicians to resolve this problem. Regardless of whether the story is somewhat better or not, this story certainly is able to make bond evident in every mission that you live. This is a big improvement when compared with Battlefield 3.
Most characters you will encounter in this game will leave an impression, but most of the time you will spend with the Irish, a colleague in Tombstone and with "Hannah" a Chinese intelligence agent who cooperated with the Tombstone. Fortunately, the voice actor who fills this character is fairly steady. Irish, played by Michael K. Williams, who is famous for her role as Omar on television shows The Wire and Hannah, played by Jessika Van. Both voice actors I mentioned his name because without them then this game will not seem the same. Both of these characters have a well-written dialogue and the voice actors have chemistry that feels so real.
DICE (developer of this game) have been quite careful to emphasize the story in the series Battlefield 4 and keep the plot remain reasonable. For example, you will never fly a plane in this game because Recker was not a pilot. This may noticeably reduce the pleasure of playing, but with a focus like this story becomes awake quality. Unfortunately this also means the story will be short-lived fashion, a veteran player can finish the game in less than 6 hours.
Luckily you will have a reason to play the fashion story because then you will be given several options that have a major influence on the ending. If I tell you more then it would be a spoiler, but all I can say is I am very, very surprised with my first ending.
Stories Battlefield 4 is not perfect. You can see the nature of the cynical character of Irish highly redundant and there are some plot story that will make you wonder why it may occur. This game also had barely touched some racial issue but before that happens Battlefield 4 end so it will not affect your play. The story is short but very exciting as an action movie and you will find some interesting karaker the course.
Atmosphere: Welcome in Asia
Visually Battlefield 4 can be said to be very, very impressive. At the highest graphics settings the game looks as good as any other PC game I ever toy and roads with very smooth. And fortunately DICE using an entire folder with effesien, you will be invited to Shanghai down at night in heavy rain and Singapore when a tropical storm hit. You will also be involved in fights in the water by boat toned look very realistic.
But what distinguishes this game from others is the level of detail. Environment created with various ornaments complete and feels very real and alive. But unfortunately even though the environment is very beautiful but you will not have much time to look around, not with the Chinese soldiers who were firing at you.
The voice on the Battlefield 4 really deserves thumbs up. The whirring sound of bullets and explosions this game could make your bones vibrate (if you adjust the sound loud enough). In addition you can also hear the speech of the Chinese army in detail. His music is also fairly good, DICE choose to use electronic music with a very minimalist and let the original sounds of war fill the atmosphere of your room. But even so the music at a low frequency and is able to repeatedly make battles feel better again.
Multiplayer
I will post a special on Battlefield 4 multiplayer so I've played long enough and leveling, but from what I've played this time experience the same can be said. Like the previous series players can choose one of several classes and customize with various equipment. Of course as you play and level up the new equipment will also open for use.
Rush, Conquest and Team & Squad Deatmatch still the main menu of the multiplayer. There is a new menu called obliteration that is seemingly trying to combine pertermpuran with a number of players with a lot of Rush mode. But when I try, I bounced back to the lobby, ntah bug or is still not there are people who play this mode. Later I will discuss further.
New additions in multiplayer is a Test Range, where you can try all the weapons and vehicles in this game in an arena without enemies. You can access this menu to practice weapons and vehicles, suitable for new players. I actually plan to spend a long time in Test Range for learning to fly a helicopter without destroying them in an instant.
There is also a new mode named Commander, which is integrated with the tablet app where you can play as a commander in the war that donated supplies and provide guidance people who are playing on the PC, but it was not yet available at the time this revew made. And even if the already available then you have to level up to 10 to be able to access it.
There is nothing really new in the multiplayer 4, practically the same as Battlefield 3 except with a new map and a few minor changes. But then again, it's not a bad thing. If you like the multiplayer Battlefield 3 (in which millions of people like it) then you'll love the multiplayer Battlefield 4. Personally, I can not wait to return to the battlefield.
Verdict
Battlefield 4 is an incredible game. You will not find innovations that are completely new, but it's not necessary if from the beginning of this game is already using a formula that really steady. Passing DICE Battlefield 4 has successfully added the missing piece and it was an interesting story. It has made a series Battlefield Battlefield 4 as the best so far.
