Why am I even watching this? I already have the game lol

Before you buy battlefield 1: get $60

A lot of people obviously find the idea of a game set in world war 1 controversial, but I think it might possible teach people about world war 1 because these days it seems that no one really remembered it

The only reason I am playing Battlefield 1 is because I love history and I play every gave that is concerned worth history.

It's a 10/10. Not being sarcastic, it should be game of the year.

They pumped out a before you buy quicker than usain bolt

I feel like this game deserves a little more praise for its immersion, the sound design is pretty amazing with a good set of headphones, In one match me and some random on my team were being sneaky trying to capture an objective, it was so quiet and i just hear a quick and sudden sound of him getting sniped in the head right next me, it startled the shit out of me, i was out.

Playing it for free now 2 years later

We need to stand up against fucking DLCs and season pass, companies now days think it's okay to give your half a game and sell the rest in sections to charge you the price of buying 3 bloody games! It's stupid.

Before you buy Battlefield 1, buy the deluxe edition and don't buy Cod:IW.

huge battlefield fan since 1942. I bought the standard edition for xbox one. This is the best battlefield game since BF3, maybe since Bad company 2. There are fewer weapons to unlock than in previous games but I honestly sort of see that as a bonus, as I'm sure we are going to get more in the expansions. This is the best single player battlefield has seen since the first bad company. It's not even really that good, but for battlefield it's incredible. its fun and it does a great job of making you feel like you're living in a different time period, which is always cool. As for the battlepacks, i don't see why anyone would get upset about them, as you can't even buy them with real money, unlike overmatch's loot boxes. Now it comes to the big question with this game. Should everyone bite the bullet and buy premium for 50 dollars or should they give up on this game after 3 months? I think we should wait and see what the first expansion looks like. If it's just maps and weapons, like with battlefront, then fuck it, the game is dead. There won't be enough content to sustain a 2 or 3 year gameplay cycle like with BF3 or 4. If the expansions contain maps, weapons, vehicles, game modes, and maybe even extra single player missions (WHICH WOULD BE REALLY COOL), then hell yes, this game will be so worth 110 dollars, just like BF3 was. People get really mad about the amount of money that battlefield costs, but if you really look at it as the main shooter you're going to be playing for 2-3 years, it's totally worth it. they end up more than doubling the amount of maps and weapons in the base game and it basically becomes 2 or 3 games in one. It's one of the best things about the modern battlefield games (since bf3). as for the actual gameplay, its sort of a hybrid between bf3 and bad company 2, with more of a focus on 3. The 64 player matches with planes are still here, so you're never going to truly get that infantry focused, vehicle second, squad focused gameplay that you got in BC2 (which i thought was the best in battlefield's franchise history). However, with the new added emphasis on squad orders and capturing flags (and the decreased emphasis on kills), there does seem to be more of a connectedness within one's squad. you'll often see squads sticking together and all focusing on one point, EVEN IF 2 or 3 of the squamates are the sniper class! This is awesome, and what could make it even better than battlefield 3 in my opinion. Also: the behemoths (zeppelin, dreadnought, armored train) are awesome, and a blast to play in and to fight against. It's a great way to try and help the losing team, and it does a good job to feel very powerful without feeling unbalanced. Have fun out there guys, this one is a lot of fun. And please, PTFO!

Literally the most unique game in recent history

BF4 wasn't even that bad don't know why everyone shits on it so much

I learned my lesson from expecting to much: No Man's Sky

Battlefield Bad Company 2 was a great fuckin game, battlefield 1 is the best battlefield since then

*For anyone transitioning from CoD games.* ( I did that after mw2, and have played every BF and CoD since). It'll take you a few weeks to get used to Battlefield. Bf has multiple game modes that you will easily do well in if you're good at CoD, and I'd recommend focusing on those at first (Domination, TDM, War Pigeons). After you're familiar with the mechanics, Kits, etc. you can start playing rush (which you can start off with too if you wanna try out vehicles for instance, it's just a bit more overwhelming but nothing major), and eventually conquest if you like the vehicles. If you have friends who want to take you to conquest instantly, showing off tanks, airplanes, open plain huge maps etc. Trust me, it's a mistake. Your CoD friend isn't used to that, and will just get turned off, even if you found it amazing.

Before you buy: -break up with your GF -buy amounts of food -tell family you died -locke the doors and turn of cellphones -pay internet and electricity bills in advance

i paid a ridiculous amount of money to play early, same as i did for cod and i have to say this is MY game of the year

Can't afford so why am I watching this?

Playing it now 7 years later and damn it still looks new I can't believe how good the graphic still are

My dad is buying this for the singleplayer.

No need for this video, we are all getting it anyway ;D Best FPS of 2016?

Some people are just judging games from what they've seen and haven't played it themselves, infinite warfare, bf1and titanfall 2 are all good in there own way.

Very good review, Jake. I do think that it is quite strange how I managed to be one of those few people who apparently encountered no glitches in single/multiplayer at all. I bought the game on PS4 a few days after it came out and it has been running super smoothly. In any case, as a person who almost never plays multiplayer games and prefers story-driven ones, I still definitely recommend this game, especially if you have your buddies in your squad in Operations.

Nothing before you buy, just instant buy

"All the servers are working" *A wild poodlecorp appears!*

first battlefield I've bought and I can't get enough of it, amazing game

Well im probably trading my overwatch acount for this. I say it is so worth it as I got bored with overwatch

Sorry i can't get it, im still looking for the megalodon on BF4.

I contacted Microsoft to cancel my pre order of infinite warfare. I've been having way too much fun with bf1 since Thursday. I never even liked cod. Even them bringing back modern warfare couldn't get me to spend my hard earned money on it

Dude great job on this review you talked about everything you touched lots of different topics most people forget. Good. Video

Saddest war story.....The Runner

a german warstory would've been nice though i feel its a big missing part in the game

My biggest gripe with this game is the ui. It just looks to clean in contrast to the dirty WW1 setting.

honestly, my favorite maps are nivelle nights, monte grappa, and rupture. they all especially nivelle nights, because it has that gritty no mans land chaos where you're completely exposed when outside of the trench

Shoot in front of the planes, not at them.

I spent $20 to play this game 3 days early because I'm an idiot.

I only disliked because of that one minute fucking add

5:11 How did it take you that long to realize those were enemies in that alley???

The Revolution bundle is currently on sale for 9.99 euro on the PS store (European region)

Playing operations on St Quentin Scar in my opinion is a must. Since 80% of it is trench warfare, it almost feels like your in WW1 with the exception of everyone using automatic weapons

Bf 1 is amazing. About five years ago i worked as a tour guide in france and i took british school groups on educational tours to museums, and ww1 sites... Ea did a great job with battlefield history wise. They really show what a shitty, pointless thing it was. The attention to detail is great too. Like in the trenches, you see loads of rats. These were called trench rats and were a real issue for soldiers. Ea did a great job with recreating no mans land. I love the music, graphics and gameplay. The campaign is the best I've played in a shooter. I def prefer it to cod.

New fav. Game! Campaign is very interesting and multiplayer is very fun with friends.

Bought the game for $20 today, haven’t picked it up yet. Looks like I made good choice for $20. Thanks for the video, good work.

RIP COD

Now that I've seen this I really need before you buy for Titanfall 2 since I'm not buying cod for the first time

I miss this game... the iron sights sniping was unreal

Was really impressed. just bought it, and was blown away in the Multiplay. As someone who sucked at Battlefield in the past, I did not feel alienated. I was able to get kills and feel like a contributing part of the team.

Battlefield 1 Battlefield 2 Battlefield Korea Battlefield Vietnam Battlefield Gulf Battlefield Afghanistan Battlefield Iraq

First!! Jk no one cares. Just looking for the attention my parents never gave me. 😞

I bought it and I love the game, there are so many sniper spots but they aren't overpowered, it has a mix of trench warfare, run and gun , and not everyone will just pick up a trench gun (shotgun) or a atomatic, there is a mix of everything and I highly recommend it, I love playing the campaign and it's so easy just to get into a match and fight

great game, currently have 74 hours played and thoroughly enjoying every aspect. first impressions i was slightly skeptical of infinity/vehicle balance (particularly tanks) but it all falls nicely into place as you learn the game

The tank driver story was the best in my opinion, reminded me of fury

If you are not connected to the Internet can you play the singleplayer

You correctly pointed out that the campaing was a glorified tutorial. But the operations mode is probably the best game I've ever played since Couter-Strike came out. The sounds and the visuals are incredible. There are so many really cool bunkers to defend/attack. Bunker war is my favourite part.

this was so helpful. now I know that I AM getting this for Christmas

1:15 Yet we haven't seen the German side...

The countries in this game don't use the weapons their countries invented.

single player airplane controls are taken straight from star wars battlefront (which removes 3 axis of control of your aircraft), but in mutliplayer the flight model is the classic/proper one

I'm literally buying the game plus dlcs for 4 euros: There is an ongoing deal on PS4 in which you pay 16€ and you get BF1 revolution and Titanfall 2 ultimate. Thus I'm paying 8€ for the BF1. I'm also sharing the PS4 account with a friend so he'll pay half of the money. For those who don't know, PS4 allows you to purchase a game once and play it simultaneously in two different PS4 and with different accounts :) PD: It's only in Spain, you'll have to create a new account, which means that if that's not the account you're playing with you won't be able to share the game. It ends the 9th June 2018

I'll have to buy my first battlefield game

I love you gameranx but I hate when people shit talk battlefield 4 they played it for the first week then stopped not realizing that they completely fixed it and regularly update still making it feel just as good as new games plus in my opinion having played hardline and 1 I still think battlefield 4 in its current state blow them out of the water especially hardline.

"Before you buy" Just buy it but learn to know what your doing and stuff or else you'll complain like a baby about "IT TAKES ME 30 MINUTES TO FIND SOMEONE!"

Keep up the great work gameranx!

Name a game that doesn't have glitches..... I'll wait

You should have photoshopped blood on Edwards hands in the thumbnail. you know, just to be a bit authentic.

Played every battlefield. This is the best. Hands down.

I was watching back at this vid because I lowkey wanna get into battlefield again then I got a thought. "What if gameranx reviewed BF4 and Halo 3 and all these older games too" (It could be another series like "before you buy" and could give older games a revival hopefully)

who needs history class anymore?

Sorry. But this isn't anything like battlefield (bf4 included), or like it used to be. Passing on this. Going back to playing BF2142. Love that they brought that back.

Bought this game last night and let it download overnight, I can't wait to play.

6:00 Battlepacks are SKINS only, except for 2 melee weapons... which don't affect the game. You can't "purchase" them either... you can acquire one with scraps from scraping duplicate skins, otherwise it's a random drop for % of players at the end of a round.

1.6k views in 3 minutes. damn jake that really is something

Waiting for the price to go down got ripped off with homefront can't take that chance again

And that's how you pass a history test with a ton of gaming and shooting

I love this game! Finished it 100% and genuinely enjoyed it, Don’t think Dice is really great at single player but it was fun and interesting to play.

I got the game with the season pass and I actually kind of regret it. The novelty wears off very quickly. The missions themselves are rehash of all the stuff we've seen in many shooters. Sneak, snipe, get item, survive.

i like glitches sometimes because its funny

BEAUTIFUL, that's all I can say. the only glitch that really bugs me is when I pause the game or snap my side bar to record something, everything freezes up for a short while. it isn't much, but those few seconds can be the difference between me living or dying or getting a kill. Not to mention that the servers crashed awhile back. However, aside from all of that, the game is still astounding and mind boggling. In my opinion

I picked up the bundle with battlefield 1 and the Xbox one S bc I wanted to try something new and this is probably one of the best graphical games I've ever played. It's almost like a little history lesson too.

does it have guns?

6:25 what is with that horse lol

This game also has historical value for younger audiences as well which I love

Did you know that in the battlefield v screen where you press X or A or whatever to start the person has two right hands, once you’ve seen it, you cant unsee it

5:06 Wait, wut? Zeppelins were near-impossible to down, even after the invention of incendary bullets. During the entire war only 2 were downed, and even then one just on accident.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Battlepacks don't have any weapons or attachments in them right? Just skins and melee weapons.

thanks I always go to this channel before buying I like what you guys have to say about it

This was the best Battlefield ever made

You can manage pretty well with the bolt rifles, I went 70-27 yesterday with the gewehr 98 infantry variant(iron sights), I made my magnification 2x I believe and was playing aggressively.

If only I had a pc good enough....

Seriously would like to see Battlefield's iteration of WW2. I enjoyed COD:WAW and to see how battlefield can take it on would be awesome.

Anyone else watching while it’s downloading

Gameranx likes the singel player campaign, but TotalBiscuit absolutely bashes it. I don't know what to belive now..

I'll buy when its 30 euros including all DLCs.

The flight controls are not the same in singleplayer and multiplayer for some reason. When you said they were pretty easy and simplified, those are the controls for singleplayer, but in multiplayer, the flight controls are traditional Battlefield style (e.g. to turn you have to knife and then pull back on the stick).

For Campaign/ Single Player Mode only, is this really better experience than BF V? Is it worth getting just the Standard Base Game or is there extra Campaign Missions if I get the Revolution? Thanks

Honestly was not going to buy battlefield 1, but after that rundown, well... I just might.

seriously FUCK multiplayer and game developers focusing on multiplayer. Bring back games with long and interesting campaigns! I want a war game campaign that takes 24 hours minimum of game time to complete.

When you watch a Before You Buy after you buy the game

At least we can all agree that this had an extremely lit opening 10 minutes.
