Fastest click in the western front
Damn boy
You just hit the G spot soldier 😁
ok?
Fastest click in the eastern front
I’ll never understand how Battlefield 1 wasn’t the template for Battlefield going forward…
Easily one of the most immersive high quality experiences.
except thats exactly what they did none of the last couple battlefields feel anything like the original bf2 bf3 bf4 etc
@@liquighost7988 No. BF1 was the last true battlefield. BF 5 is nothing like BF1, how can you say "That's exactly what they did"
Most of the devs that worked on bf4 and bf1 had left dice by bfv
It genuinely makes no fucking sense. I feel like most of their design talent must have left
@@thelostspaceman1783 When BF1 was released everyone hated it because it was nothing like the games before it. BF1 definitley wasn't the last "true BF" as you're saying. It's great, but it wasn't all that appreciated in the start.
The release of All Quiet on the Western front, combined with BF1's 90% off sale have been the main factors in its return. Great to see more people playing it.
I liked the new one! Not as thematic as the original, but a well-adapted modernized edition of the film definitely worthy of the name.
@@OperatorDrewski I agree, watched it as soon as it released on Netflix and loved it. I’m always looking for good war films to fuel my obsession, it made the cut.
@@OperatorDrewski Definitely worth it purely for the visual spectacle alone.
@@OperatorDrewski I think this adaptation truly captures the brutality of WW1
I was gonna say 2042 and BFV sucked and BF1 was the last good one
What bf1 nailed was the atmosphere. Charging an objective with a bunch of other troops while mortars are blowing up around you and the music is going crazy. No other game has done it that well
Isonzo is real good at atmosphere too
@@senritsujumpsuit6021 never played. Is it on console?
@@LieutenantPoop yes
the gameplay flow is what makes it feel far less arcade like
Since BF4 you mean?
@@LieutenantPoop You might want to also try Hell Let Loose, atmosphere is unbelievable (Is on console)
To this day, BF1 is still the best pre-order I made
I agree , I remember playing Bata the whole weekend it eas active.. lol
I swear they hired some sort of sound scientist wizard to do the kill confirmed sound. That ping and seeing the names pop up and such -- It's just dopamine heaven.
Especially the headshot kill sound.
On pair with Rising Storm 2: Vietnam. Godly sounds.
Killed 70people today playing tank so true man
BF4 has no sound 🥱 let those little bird nerds cry some more
Yep. The medal ping after every kill is orgasmic, especially with snipers
One thing I love about battlefield 1 is that the game is very rock paper scissors when it comes to the weapons and it forces you to think outside the box and use the other tools that you have at your disposal It's not like other battlefield games where it's like. Oh the M16A3 is good at everything no, the classes are very tuned to a specific purpose and that's what I love about this game
when the 4 class system at its peak
Good comment cheers bro
If I could have one wish, that would be that DICE would continue supporting and making more content to Battlefield 1
That would be amazing. My only gripe was that the Apocalypse maps get so little play because they didn't have full operations for them, just the shock operations.
@@Machiave11i Caporetto has a big Shock Ops potential, same with Albion, and Passchendeale for Frontline
I believe it would do better if instead of Battlefield V they just expanded Battlefield 1 to slowly transition to WWII especially the campaign. I never liked Battlefield V from early Beta to the full release. I tried it half a year and a year after but it was never as good as Battlefield 1.
you know this is a AAA company so the chance for them to come back to older game to make content for it are small, but it would be cool if they added back the unreleased contents for both battlefield 1 and 5 as new content
You know what, if Mario Kart 8 gets to be a 9 year old game still getting content then this game absolutely deserves it.
For me, the soundtrack of this game is top-tier. Theres nothing like charging through enemy lines as the orchestra and choir from the "In the name of the Tsar DLC" soundtrack plays.
I bought a tench whistle.
Just so I can re-enact trench charges via sound alone.
AND the war cries when you push on to the next objective (in Operations). That legit gives you the adrenaline to actually move forward.
Or the when the Battlefield Theme kicks in!
I'd prefer DLCs rather than loot boxes and season passes
BF1 is my favourite battlefield, purely because of the atmosphere. Especially in hardcore, the bolt actions feel awesome. Also the hit sound is the most satisfying in any bf game. ting!
Bad Company 2, BF3, and BF2. BF4 and BF1 suffered from shitty launch map designs.
@@sammallory I like the maps
Never found Hardcore servers on BF1, it's my most fun way to play BF :(
@@egg979 You would be in the small percentage. The maps are always one sided do to poor map designs and mechanics. Literally at the drop the initial maps had one sided wins for the first 2 years. Not till they started adding new maps did it somewhat fix it. But they still did not fix the designs of the levels and the AA guns. Bombers ruin games. People go 150-0 and an AA can't be repaired. Where they place the AA guns on the maps are poor designs. What are your top 5 maps?
@@sammallory the dlc maps were good. I like most of the base maps too. But yes people no life air or aa guns on most of them.
This is a game that brought my friendship group together in 2016 and with us all being busy with nowadays, it's good to finally hop on and bond again over this masterpiece of a game. It good to see all the server full again.
Ahh 2016. For me it was GTA online, bf4 and csgo. But same feeling. Except no reunion yet. Hahaba
I remember the biggiest issue I had when the game was new was that weather was CLIENT sided. So a sandstorm would ONLY blind you and a few others while a ton of other people can just dome you from anywhere because it was a good day outside for them.
Does that still happen?
@@TheTber123 Never got domed by someone outside my view in a sandstorm so I guess not.
Not sure that this was a thing tbh...I played a lot of bf1 with a lot of people and have never heard of this happening
@@ItzMikeDocherty same, don’t think it ever happened on ps4
@@ItzMikeDocherty it was 100% lmao
Damn, if I knew it was on sale for $5 I would have bought it. Arguably the best battlefield.
This comment confuses me.
@@DeyRapingEveryone He probably bought it for an older console and now has upgraded to a PC like myself. I am also a little sad I missed the sale.
@@luke8952 for me I can't run it on my PC but would have bought it anyway had I known it was that cheap (future upgraded PC) , I've played almost 1k on console though
@@DeyRapingEveryone What Luke said
@@luke8952 Amen, disappointed that I didn't notice.
After playing MW22 I felt like I had to go back to one of the greatest Battlefield games of all time
call of duty makes the same game since 2007 as if they were dlcs
@@xavolta5980 MW22 is actually really good though, I was genuinely impressed especially after the last like 5 games lol
MW22 is nice
@@JustAGooseman I saw Pyro getting murdered every 2 seconds by random going around corners spraying wildy an know COD sucks
besides local black ops custom matches
@@JustAGooseman it's super casual, no depth, too much grind, menus are confusing. that game sucks.
I find it hilarious that Dice basically put the final nail in the coffin for 2042 by making one of their best games almost free.
Good to see people are reviving this jewel.
Maybe in some unlikely realm, Dice will notice the resurgence of BF1 and return to do some quality of life updates and add in solo/co-op AI bot battles as they demonstrated in their ‘SEED AI’ tech trailer.
Battlefield 1 is terrible
@@Danny-zl3nc why?
@@marialourainebanosia26 Literally is copy and paste except it takes place during WW1. The only reason people hyped it was because of the setting.
This video being uploaded just as me and my friend launched BF1 to play for the first time in years is poetic.
See u on the battlefield 👍
Real players dont REDOWNLOAD cause youtubers say its good now.
Real players don’t gate keep others
@@afterhours1337 word, gatekeep the gatekeepers
@@helium5912 Real players don’t gate keep a game? Plus I already had it downloaded before this vid was released, I thought that was obvious but obviously not for troglodytes like yourself who can’t understand basic English.
Okokok so to be clear: I love BF1. I can only agree with Drewski, the game just feels great even after six years now. One thing that bothered me tho when I last played it were the insane amounts of cheaters/hackers. I don't know if anyone had the same experience but for me it was just getting killed by invisible guys with lewis guns across the map in every second round at least. After some time I got so fed up that I uninstalled and haven't played the game since. Has it gotten any better? Would love to return to BF1 but I sadly remember it to be unplayable :/
Use the server browser and stay off DICE official servers. Plenty of player rented servers to choose from (for NA atleast) and hackers rarely ever attempt to play those since they are moderated by humans and they just get perma banned from the server.
He even plays with one at 14:35, you can see the tank gewehr in kill feed and hear the rapid fire from it. As others said, you will be safe on community servers. At least from cheaters. And it's not that bad right now, but if you want to be 100% certain, avoid the official servers.
Short answer: because it's the most well made battlefield ever.
Long answer: You may not like the changes in gameplay, or the balancing of guns, but when it comes to sheer production value, it's the best Battlefield. The visuals, audio, feedback, immersion is still top tier today. They nailed what they were trying to do with this game.
I wish dice updated the graphics for current gen consoles and added crossplay.
Bought it for around 3 USD a couple days ago, first battlefield game i bought and im having such a blast playing it, loving the multiplayer and also loving the campaign rn, just got done with the first story in the campaign today
It's the only battlefield game you need
It should be your BF standard. Nothing else compares. Stick with it. Let's keep this amazing game alive.
Dude I legit cried at some points in the campaign
Beautifully crafted game
You’re so lucky. After getting nearly every item and weapon, etc, it’s not as fun as first opening the game. Experiencing the campaign and multiplayer grind for the first time and even for a while can be so much fun. Sadly, BF2042 just doesn’t feel like Battlefield anymore despite having increased graphics and different/unique gameplay mechanics. The gameplay of BF1 and even BFV (IMO), felt like the last true Battlefields.
@@Thysll Get battlefield 4 and 3 with it and ur all set
I love this game so much, sniping was easy but still had a skill gap and was really run to use the rifles in close quarters also idk how they made 5 and 42 so hard to see enemies in those games compared to 1
I had BF1 since release, and I’ll say now, no other game has me more immersed that’s not VR. It’s beautiful, optimised, giant wars. Sometimes I stop shooting and just stare at the planes flying about and the tracers being traded across the mountains and think wow lol
@1:00 is just Euphoric! I remember hearing the vocals for the first time and thinking WOW (always thought it was just an instrumental - but one day i stayed on the menu long enough to hear the womans vocal - just sublime)
I confess I'm not really that great at the game, but unlike other multiplayer FPS I still felt like a crucial part of the team.
There was one moment, in the Russia v. Austria-Hungary map, where the team was just seconds away from losing with one point left to capture. I got into an armored truck and just floored it into the thing, I died but we managed to capture the point and ended up winning the level. I had never felt like such an important part of a team before, and to make such a huge difference in such a huge battle felt AWESOME.
This game will always be the best.
Man when I just see ur name popping up in recommended with a new video, it just makes the whole day better. anyone agreeing?
Then sub, and you wont miss a single vid:)
Thanks buddy :)
Notifications are better
I love that you're still the only other person I've seen have fast small twitches whenever you shoot. It's like instinctively trying to react to the enemy moving even though they're completely still. On the other hand, you still hit a lot more shots than I do.
It's mostly anxiety and panic that causes that with people who play competitive/action arcade shooters. He normally plays RTS games or ARMA.
Me the entire video is just screaming at him to lower his sensitivity and just CHILL THE FUCK OUT. Maybe he'd land 100+ kill games if he did some chill xD
I missed this game for a long time.
Remember playing it on one of the first days of launch, fell in love with it on my first match.
I went and got my first job so I could build a pc that's whole purpose was to run BF1 on max settings with at least 60 fps. I didn't grow up with a console or a computer to play games, BF1 is the game that got me into all of it. Lol best memory was being sick on prom night so I left early and went to grind the new naval DLC that had just come out.
man that’s nice i hope you’re still having fun with the game
theres just something about this game that just tops every other BF idk what it is, the aesthetic is just insane
I hope this game stays populated for a long, long time. I honestly want them to go back and add even more content to this game cause it feels like a universally loved title.
I’ve always loved that little chime noise that comes in when you get a kill. So satisfying!
no other bf felt as good for me as tense end of the round moments in bf1 operations. and then that switch to calmer music, zoom out from battle with narrator talking about historical outcomes, ah so good, no matter if it was win or loss
Nothing better than a one shot Martini Henry kill confirmed sound
That track you put in at 1:00 made me cry Not water my eyes, I genuinely cried out loud. I never cried over a game soundtrack or any song for that matter.
Guess I’m dead on the inside then.
Dude, Flight of the Pigeon
@@L0Lr4ndoms That, too.
Just EPIC
....
Man I miss this game. I'm going to download it now.
I had forgotten how much I enjoyed this game, and I am kicking myself for leaving years ago.
Keep up the awesome work Drewski and keep kicking ass!
I remember bumping into you recently in Battlefield 1, super cool to meet you in game bro
While Battlefield 4 was great and I love Bad Company 2 to death, I honestly believe Battlefield 1 was the absolute peak and I'm afraid Battlefield may never recapture such high level of polish and overall quality.
This game is a personal favorite it truly is muddy, bloody, and makes games that you will remember. It still one of the best looking games too
Pro tip enemy's marked with the trench Parascope outlines the marked player and vehicles
Just LOOK at this game, man.
THIS is Battlefield, operations in this game was the best Battlefield experience I've had, this game should be the template for future releases.
What a game.
For me it was Frontlines. You had to actually hold your territory and slowly push your way across the map and there was a lot of back and forth (just like WW1)
Conquest is the worst Battlefield mode for me and of course it's by far the most popular in every game.
@@mickram7911 oh god Frontlines was great. I remember spending an entire session of about 4hrs with friends in just 1 round. Both teams were way to balanced but also way to commited to let the other one win. It was a slugfest (and afterwards a friend was like "this was the most WW1 game ever: you run out to die in a wave just to gain no ground at all, while the other team is doing the same") In the end the top 5 (on both teams) went out with about 300 kills each...
@@peerschulz2029 ahhhh back when frontlines didnt have a timer lmao. Games would go on for literal hours.
We had these full immersion competitions- hardcore, no hud. What an experience to be had. Truly made an immersive experience and a level playing field for everyone. Definitely needs to be played again!
absolutely love the gameplay, very well done!!
Ive always said this, bf1 was the last GOOD battlefield game, and for me personally is my favorite battlefield overall, I loved pretty much every single map, soundtrack is the best out of all the games by far, the graphics and sound design are amazing, tons of weapons to unlock, good destruction, a metric fucktone of badass battlefield moments that can happen, I will always love this game and am so happy seeing more playing it again
Same the maps are awesome, the guns all feel great even the wacky weapons are fun to mess around with. Not to mention the campaign mode which is heartbreaking and heartwarming all at the same time. 9.5/10 game only .5 off is because kolibri isn't a one shot kill
people bitching about gun customization are fucking braindead too. Every LMG, every AR, every SMG feels similar in BF4. I would rather have fewer guns with bigger in-class and interclass variance in terms of how the weapons behave. The difference between Chauchat and Merci-Benett and M1917MG is immense.
@@Jefftarnish kolibri isn’t a one-shot kill my ass 😂
@@dbean5174 look man I enjoy absolutely broken things when presented in a funny context.
I reckon bfv was pretty good too.
BF1 has a special place in my heart, glad to see its still alive and kicking!
Hey thanks for the video, BF1 is my favourite and seeing others having fun playing it, brings me so much joy.
i also came back, i love this game, it was one of my earliest and most vivid online shooter experiences, i played it all the time in 2016 and 2017, im glad i can enjoy these operations once again, its so gritty, cinematic and epic
Everything about this game was perfect. The only thing that could've made it better would be a realism mode where everybody has minimal HUD and less health.
BF1 was the last true battlefield where we got this feeling of having a great time playing. No other things to do to travel among maps locations, play chill and use other ways to win
1:01 left me tear, especially during the warstory dreadnought mission.
Got it during the sale and it's my first bf game. I am loving it especially the operations maps when you are defending
The *only* problem I had with BF1 was that EA stopped doing anything about hackers. Infinite artillery calldowns, one shotting tanks with a pistol from across the map, all that sort of stuff. You could report hackers, but I'd still see the exact same account a week later doing the exact same crap.
well bf5 had more cheaters
this is a absolute master piece. Even dice today, lost their ability to recreate a game like this.
@OperatorDrewski part 1:02 that song is Zajdi,zajdi Sonce .... Famous folk song from my country ..... Hi from Macedonia :D I love Battlefield 1 .... Great game ever made !!!!!
1:02 OH GOD, YOU GOT MY HEART OUT OF NOWHERE! That song, from that campaign, god it make my heart sink. Who to think that music from a game can hit like a goddamn truck!
Battlefield 1 truly is the last greatest battlefield to stick to its root formula.
At the time while yes it was very much different than Battlefield 4, and expectations were more in line with a modern battlefield.
It was very much accepted to me, and given all the content, the premium system which worked because you at least got a bunch of content and not drop fed 2 maps over the course of a couple years.
This game looks beautiful, the atomosphere is not like any other battlefield imo, the OST, the soundscape of just hearing teammates yelling, screaming. The brutality in melee kill animations. The wide array of melee weapons, reminiscent of the bf4 Knifes you could choose from.
I just wish the behemoths to this day, had a bit more of an impact to turn the tide of the match. As imo, they’re pretty weak when teamed up on by 1-2 squads.
"I don't think there's been a bad thing said about this game" BF community in a nutshell. There absolutely was a lot of negative things said. It just gets forgotten when newer and then worse BF games come out.
Same thing was said about BF4 worst game ever in the franchise. Years later it’s being hailed as the last best BF ever made.
That push into the bunker at 6:30 was so epic
Please play more of this, really enjoyed the video
Battlefield 1 is by far my favourite battlefield game. I loved Back to Basics when it actually had players 😢 Hopefully now with the new players we can get back into the custom games!!!
I remember going on a 41-49 kill streak in this battlefield. It was so crazy!
Same. On operations you can get even more, it's pure chaos
If your only enjoyment in life is killing people in a virtual video game, maybe you should rethink your life.
@@xXSgtWolfXx it definitely isn't my only enjoyment my friend. But it is a hobby nonetheless
Haven't played in ages, see you on the battlefield!
Man that moment when our squad whistled while rushing at the beginning of grand operation man that atmosphere was insane till this day I never got that feeling yet again
That transition at 00:15 tells you everything you need to know. A 6 year old game runs, looks, feels, and plays infinitely better than 2042 because of the difference in effort and talent.
Woah, this is a BEAUTIFUL game! Never expected Battlefield 1(2016 release date) to look like it released within the past couple years! Foliage looks extravagant
I loved Bf1 it was my first battle field and its still my favorite all of the old interesting guns the wide beautiful and fun maps with the perfect mix of choke points and wide open spaces/defensive positions the guns all have their own characteristics that truly matter just everything about the game sucked me into it.
I broke 2 monitors and a couple of controllers because of this game. The pre-nerf gas grenades(can carry 2 instead of 1), the explosive spams, the dreadfully slow pre-buff TTK, the never fixed heavy bomber, the no time limit Frontline game that I had to stop because it had been almost 4 hours, and the amount shit I talked about this game because I was so passed at the random bullet deviation. But man, I miss it. I can walk in Argonne forest with my eyes closed. The melee only servers. The headshot sounds. The first time I did well CQBing with snipers. And all the dumb shit you can do in a BF game. This game will forever be special to me.
Are there any iron sight bolt action/sidearm only servers? That would be a blast.
Back to Basic servers? I hope there are.
Still can't believe that for a game that old it looks better than the shit we're getting today.
Well disminishing returns of graphics.
A leap like PS2 to PS3 is impossible in 6 years
1:01 God damnit drewski!!! I shed a tear, that song is so so SO beautiful
This makes me so happy to see......BF1 has always been close to my heart since launch, I've been lvl cap since Apocalypse released and been playing strong every since, and to see so many new people falling in love with the game as I once did makes me feel really good
I think the biggest complaints I saw about BF1 were mostly about the guns themselves, especially the SMG's like the Hellrigel
Other than that a lot of people did really love the gem that is this beautiful game
its WW1 use a bolt action and a bayonet😂
yeah there were a lot of complaints that its not realistic, the game is more of a reimagining of the first world war, its more of a 1920s/1930s setting while keeping the nation sides of the ww1, and also the narration (like operations) is if as it was real ww1
but it wouldnt be as fun if there were no automatic weapons, its a staple of shooters
Leaving warzone 2 and going back to this beauty.
28:02 omfg what a beautiful transition!! XD
started playing this after years of playing BF3 on ps3, and it was so good, immediately hooked. Perfect soundtrack and visuals, and when the gameplay heats up it is just so amazing. Also melee kills just feel so satisfying in this game
Bf3 and Bf1 forever some of the greatest fps's of all time
Battlefield 1's soundtrack, the faithfulness to the history and the cleanest gameplay, all contribute to this being the best Battlefield
If you love their soundtrack then you wont regret listening to ace combat zero song
@@ArkFisted Well ye. ACZ it's great game... But it's way different from BF1
I first played Battlefield 1 on my Xbox when it first came out and I was waiting for a sale on Steam so I could play it on my PC. This was the perfect opportunity to play it and I’ve been loving it.
20:00 def got in trouble for that one lol
I was one of the guys who got it for 5$. Lol. I was missing out, didnt know bf1 is so fun and immersive.
> watches Drewski vid on BF1.
>> opens Origin.
>>> loads up BF1.
-wipes tear from eye-
Cheers for reminding me how much a gem this Battlefield truly is, mate.
When i saw the version with all the dlc for 7.99 on the xbox store i couldn't resist it and now bf1 is one of my most played games in the past couple of weeks
After that bayonet charge you have entered a new map, it was beautiful editing 28:00
Play it everyday still is amazing!!!! Servers are up everywhere!
Same for me :)
I reinstall every game you showcase in your videos. You are the ultimate re-salesman.
I love this game so darn much, it's the only multiplayer game I put so many hours into and got a fairly high level in lol. I love the music especially! But nothing will truly beat "I Vow to Thee my Country" in BFV, always brings tears to my eyes.
Maybe it’s because of the actually gratitude that went into the game, not some slop job made on this… “game” we call battlefield 2042.
I will never play another game that I will have so much fun in, feel so immersed in, make so many memories in ever again. Truly the last hurrah of the glory age of gaming BF1 was.
Me and my friends used to play the Back To The Basics game mode on passchendaele it was so cinematic
This is wild! Me and my buddy just started playing this again the other day for fun. I was thinking of playing it in honor of armistice day and wondered if I was the only one who’d think to do that. Looks like I was right!
Bfv is also absolutely amazing. Not sure why people never appreciate that game
No, it's soulless crap.
BFV was a woke mess of a game. They focused more on sending a message over making a proper WWII game
I come back to this game for about a month a year and love it. This has something special. Bf4 and bf1 just hit different.
This is my first bf game and the one I have played the most, . I just started playing this on pc a year ago after playing for a long time on xbox. So glad to see it's player count is rising.
Drewski coming in CLUTCH with that flamethrower at the bunker!
Battlefield 1 was my first and favorite battlefield game and you have no idea how happy this makes me.
The storm variant of the automatico is pretty good at aiming. Love that gun
The sound design and music for Battlefield 1 was absolutely EPIC
i actually played BF1 for the first time a month or two ago, just before this revival, I guess, and while I only played the campaign (i'm a story guy who's content to watch others do the multiplayer) i was utterly blown away by the entire thing. the visuals, the UI, the gameplay...i've considered going back to play it mp mode, which i've only ever done for battlefront 2
You'll be glad to know this is one of the rare games where the atmosphere of the campaign is EXACTLY what it is in multiplayer (save for the enemies not being complete dunderheads XD)
Seeing full servers on frontlines again is just the best.
The mosin nagant marksman’s rifle was hella underrated as a sniper rifle. I miss those satisfying ping sounds whenever you nailed someone in the head, 200 yards out.
