I have been seeing lots of Battlefield 1 Broken comments and threads. I either figured this person is trolling, didn’t buy Battlefield 4 at launch, or needs to look up definition of Broken. Here is some facts.
Battlefield 4 at launch.
Conquest was unplayable. Broken
Crashed every other round or every round. Broken
Tons of bugs and really bad hit reg. Not broken but very annoying.
Single player would not save progress. Broken.
Battlefield 1 at launch.
Conquest has been 100% Playable. Not Broken
I had 1 crash out of 100,s of hours of playing. Not Broken. Fixed already
3 Bugs but no where near Battlefield 4 level. Annoying
Single player was great and playable the entire Campaign. Not Broken
I’m sure there is way more examples then this but Bottomline Battlefield 1 has never been Broken and I have been loving this game since launch. People that bought Battlefield 4 at launch will appreciate Battlefield 1 way more.
It’s the “the last battlefield was amazing this one sucks” that pops up everytime without fail.
I personally couldn’t play bf4 until 2 months after launch as it would just crash and I couldn’t handle it being such a pos.
The state it’s in now is decent, but one of the big things for me, hit registration, is much better in bf1 than even now in bf4, in my opinion of course.
Battlefield 4 was the most horrifically badly broken launch I have witnessed in my entire life of playing videogames.
Absolutely nothing else comes to mind in terms of how incredibly broken and unplayable that game was at launch.
Battlefield 1 on the other hand has been the smoothest launch in many many years for the series. It’s also a very enjoyable game so overall it has been a very good BF experience this time round for me.
That being said, for pretty much every videogame you will have detractors who say “the previous one was so much better” for X,Y and Z reasons. It’s natural.
Wouldn’t load. Multiple crashes. Reddit used to call Dawnbreaker, Consolebreaker, because it was weeks before anyone on console could play that map with it causing the game to crash.
Bugs. Glitches. Crashes. Nah, nothing like BF3. I remember actually being able to play BF3 when it came out.
We paid full price for a AAA title and it should work from day 1. Also, it should be monitored for months after. We got neither. EA only cares for shareholders, players are a far second.
I started playing bf4 in April 2014 so I personally missed the horror that was the launch and following months but I’m fully aware of it and was especially at the time. I see a lot joined bf4 after Dice LA took over; they played basically another game. Bf4 to this day still has issues but the rose tinted goggles are too stronk.
Having played on 360, xbone and PC; I know all too well the horror that was bf4. Apparently it’s great though because it had hundreds of useless shiny trinkets and copy and paste weapons. But nah gameplay doesn’t count for anything right? It’s all about being able to unlock stuff to ‘pimp my m4’; who cares about gameplay, mechanics, balance, reliability, being able to actually play the game nah fam it’s all about the grind.

Member when Dice had the player appreciation month in Feb 2014 to apologise for the state of the game? Member how February is the shortest month? Member a dog tag, double xp and a scope for the m1911? I member
It’s the new practice. Pay for Alpha(aka Release a game with so many known bugs and make us wait for them to patch something that should have been fixed before release)
