GameCentral reviews the story campaign from the new Battlefield spin-off, and tries to decide whether the police setting is a good idea.
Thanks to the disastrous launch of Battlefield 4, and the problems with other multiplayer-focused games last year, there’s no way we can offer a definitive view on Battlefield Hardline’s multiplayer until the game has launched. But whereas the single-player story mode is all but irrelevant to the regular Battlefield games it’s one of the key attractions for this spin-off, since the whole game has been developed by Dead Space makers Visceral Games. So what we can do in the meantime is tell you what we think of that.
Battlefield veteran developer Thaddeus Sasser reveals a cut Segway vehicle from Hardline because it became way too powerful.
Marvel Rivals game director and Battlefield Hardline multiplayer lead Thaddeus Sasser wishes gamers played the latter's DLC expansions.
This was one of my harder platinums to get, mainly because the game was the beginning of the Battlefield decline, this game was horrible.
DLC for shooters generally splits the player-base between ‘haves’ and ‘have nots’, and it often means that servers became less populated and as a result, many dropped the game completely once that happened …
Yeah, kind of ironic isn't it. If they had released it a year later with the DLC part of the base experience, it would have gotten a bigger audience.
Multiplayer design lead Thaddeus Sasser reveals that Battlefield Hardline 2 was never going to happen after the backlash of the first.
Hardline at least tried to mix things up for the first time in a while. This was pretty much the nail in the coffin for Visceral though.
Hardline was fun af, nice size areas to get around in. Got a good 10 hours out of it because I took my time much as I can. Sucha good story and atmosphere
I didn't even know this was something that had been requested. A new Bad Company, oh hell yeah. Hardline? Not so much.
Hardline was great for what it was and it had the best MP mode with the moving hardpoints, if you havnt played it the hard points to capture were vehicles, with points earned for how long you are in one, so its this huge mash up of ground warfare and taking out vehicles and getting in one and tearing ass trying not to get blown up...was awesome.
