Vic B'Stard writes: "What happens when you take an established franchise and throw the rulebook out the window? Well, you get something akin to Visceral Studios’ Battlefield Hardline. Taking over the stewardship of this particular entry from the franchise founders DICE, the Dead Space developer has taken Battlefield in a totally different direction.
You could argue that DICE, themselves, have already done this with their more narrative-focused Battlefield Bad Company games- but you’d be wrong. Bad Company still had soldiers and still had tanks. Hardline swaps all that cool military stuff out and replaces it all with the hard boiled world of cops and criminals.
But is it really Battlefield?"
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.
The vip mode was a great idea but the whole game had that need more time in the oven feeling. My only big issue with hardline as a whole was the smgs.
But vip plus c4 classic

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.
