Why Is Battlefield 1 SO AWESOME?!

- Battlefield 1 is an interesting specimen in the modern era of gaming. A time period no triple A developer had dared to go, a premise some would say is foolish, and the brand of one of the biggest First-Person Shooters ever. So how did it turn out? Well, let's find out....

@@luckyman9457 sure but I mean like, who really cares? It’s not like it matters at all
I remember playing Gallipoli as Ottomans and desperately defending the final objective for 10+ minutes straight. Squads and Squad leaders were literally shouting orders over voice chat while entire swathes of brits were being gunned down by that one dude in the static MG. It was one of the best MP games I ever played.
The multiplayer is still like this, man. Tons of players and very fun
@@BananaPhoPhilly just found my way back and its crazy how much fun it still is
I had so many memorable moments myself. I remember the last sector of the Alp map where the defensive team have that crazy strong base at the end. It was nuts because we were on the ground trying to push through the main wall of that base, but had constant machine gun fire around us with fighter biplanes overhead, but this tank came out of nowhere from our team and started to suppress the fire for us to jump the wall and take the main courtyard. We ran past him and his team for the building and the underground tunnels just to see the tank get blasted to pieces by the biplane's bombs. Just a crazy scenario to see and I have so many other moments like that such as storming the beaches, pushing with four other squads through the trenches of the green hilly map, or ambushing enemies in the forest map.
I was the medic class and I had to revive a lot of people including squad mates whiles being theres gunfire and grenades being tossed at me and still remember that
Bro that exactly how it happened with me
As an Australian I found it really awesome to see Gallipoli represented from Australian perspectives. So often we see English, American, Russian etc in video games, but rarely Aussies, especially something as important to us as the Gallipoli campaign. It means a lot to us.
Whenever I play as commonwealth Soldier close to Turkey, I feel like I Am a Kiwi or an Aussie myself, You guys earned your place in History!
Australians have proven to be some of the world's best soldiers time and time again. Having worked with them on a few occasions they really are made of something else entirely.

@Benny Buttcheeks yeah u guys had one, dignity
I like to imagine that the italian mission is so ridiculous because of how its a story the main character’s telling his daughter. That’s why every time she gets scared he tells her about his impenetrable armor
It was actually slightly accurate. The Italians did attempt to have soldiers covered in thick metal to then charge and gain ground. While the overall design was different (I’ve never seen images like the one portrayed in the game) there are real photos of soldiers having armor in WW1.
the irony of the fact that the Farina armours were famous in Italy for being absolutely useless in open combat lmao
@@nickmaxfracasso8376 It was useless against bullets , but good against shrapnel , wich is what kill 95% of soldiers (if you dont count sickness)
I think WW1 really lends itself well to Battlefield.
WW1 was known for how it turned small villages and luscious fields into empty lifeless no-mans-land.
Battlefield with its destructible environment reflects that perfectly.
I've had operations on St.Quentin Scar, in which most of the village and the windmills were reduced to piles of rubble. All the bombs, shells and explosives had torn craters into the earth.
One more thing that sets the Battlefield franchise apart is the gameplay with vehicles.
In WW1, each side fielded new vehicles to give them the edge and break the stalemate.
You can really get a feel for that when you have been struggling to take an objective but then a tank shows up to lead the attack.
Often you'll see people running behind the tank to use it as cover.
Some of the tanks have surplus seats, so they can act as a mobile spawn point for the entire team. That way, a single tank can create a new frontline.
One thing that is unique to BF1 is how it treats the conflict.
BF1 doesn't just put you in a battle on some imaginary map and says "have fun". The game tells you what lead to this battle, why it is important, how the people fighting in it thought and how its outcome changed the course of history.
It this context that makes your actions feel so important.
We need a COD WAW like game in WW1
Spot on. The game is not historically accurate per se but it is accurate to concepts that shaped WW1. Another example is Beyond The Marne. The French has access to shit tons of tanks in that operation, which is based on a battle that's famous for the use of tanks. While the tanks the French team may be using in the game may not be accurate, it really gives the feeling of how tanks played a huge role in that battle.
Well everything you said is on the mark about but however Bad Company 2 had more destructability
i really wish bf5 was like a ww2 equivalent to bf1
Me too!! I am so disappointed in BF5, it has nothing WW2 about it besides guns and vehicles
It literally is lmfao
Yes
Vilius well Ik bf1 just feel better and I can’t really pinpoint why I hate bf5 but it sucks
Alex The Awsome If innovating means releasing an unfinished game at full price and avoids what people like about WW2 and Battlefield...then yes.
This game has the most cinematic multiplayer I’ve ever experienced.

@@richardbasso22 HLL is great, but nothing comes close to BF1 when it comes to immersion
@@und1sputed992 facts
@@und1sputed992 i recently downloaded BF1 bc i never played it that much, and was shocked at how good it was compared to 2042.. its honestly sad
I felt like watching this again. Btw the Italian story is an actual story😭😭 it’s over the top, but it’s a good representation of how in ww1 and 2 there was very little stop time. You never stopped fighting and even when you did, you where just waiting for the enemies turn
I honestly I really like it when fights become slow or even grind to a halt because it reminds me of the actual irl battles, you had a strong fast attacks that slowly ground to a halt and become slow, like having to clear out or defend trench systems. It balances out the combat
I love that when an operation stagnates at one point, the area gets progressively more war torn. Like, after 30 mins on one checkpoint, the ground is riddled with explosion holes, and all of the structures in the area have collapsed.

@@furb7695 there is so much to cover in this game lol
I love lines included such as, "The war for oil continues to this day". This connects this war story to a current affair that is still relevant in the eyes of the people, and so players are interested in this.
in the war stories, i didn't need a bunch of time to grow with the characters. i was able to tell the devastation, the hurt, the anguish, just by the atmosphere and character portrayal. the war stories show the brutality and unforgiving nature of war, such as the desperate hope of the tank captain in Through Mud and Blood as he blows the lines of Bess, or the anger of Clyde Blackburn as he struggles with indecision in No Mans Land. i found myself almost tearing up in The Runner when Bishop meets his end. hes happy to pass the torch, accepting of his successor and his fate. he knows its the end, yet he still smiles in the face of certain death because he knows he did what he could. battlefield one had, what is in my opinion, the best take of singleplayer campaign in any battlefield game. not because of gameplay or story, but because of the themes, the emotions, the characters, the quotes, and so much more. not to mention one of the greatest opening scenes in gaming history.
i know this is a wall of text, but i mean it when i say that battlefield one is that game that you can go back and say, "yeah, i remember that. i played that."
BF3: Amazing
BF4: GREAT!
BF1: MASTERPIECE!!!
BFV: wha...what is happening here..?
Indeed my friend
Battlefield 3 is great :(
Womens in BFV what?
If you go woke you go broke
BF 3 and 4 were closer to masterpieces than BF 1
Battlefield 3: Best Maps
Battlefield 4: Best Gameplay/customization
Battlefield 1: Best Atmosphere.
straight truth right here
I completely fucking agree
Fuck yeah
BF4 was the last Battlefield game that actually felt like a Battlefield game.
Bf4 isn’t accurate. Bf4 had the MOST customization, not the best. That’s not a good thing, considering there were many attachments that all functioned the same, but just looked different. Just put the best looking attachments with each weapon and cut out all the junk. It also heavily relied upon lootboxes instead of a progression system for the customizables, so that’s a negative. BF3 or bad company 1/2 could also hold the gameplay title as well.
2022, still the best shooter out there in my humble opinion.
Fun, gritty, amazing setting, good historicity. Most satisfying kills as well.
Yeah definitely. It's a great game to play and wind down.

The sound design is so brutal so chaotic … awesome
I’d like to play again but with this busted controller is literally unplayable in this game but any game
I really like history and games and I understand that you don't want it to be too realistic or historical to make the game still fun
Exactly. I don’t think enough people understand that if this game were realistic, it would literally just be one side camping the whole time with mostly scout class weapons while the other just get their asses beat.
Maybe after a few hours, or days, or weeks the the roles would switch up.
There’d be basically little to no vehicles (especially if you were on the Central Powers’ side). And the ones you do have would probably die of engine failure in the middle of no man’s land.
And, if it were realistic, the majority of the gameplay wouldn’t be spent fighting. You’d get to repair trenches, hide in dugouts for several hours at a time from artillery barrages or spend several hours loading artillery, be on guard duty, execute dying horses, spend several hours stealing food from nearby towns because your rations haven’t arrived yet, and best of all, maintaining the local latrines!

something like PIGLIA, HARTUCCE instead of PRENDI, MUNIZIONI
or similar things like in sicilian or similar
Thank you I did not know that
I can understand why there are usually no campaigns about Germans or Japanese in WWII games, however in a game set in WWI, I was actually hoping that we might get something from the Central Powers POV as well.
I really feel that was a missed opportunity.

the thing i like most about bf1 is the balancing of the classes. all of them have their place and are strong in their own regard
Battlefield 1 was the internet’s prayer. We were fed up with COD being futuristic, especially with Infinite Warfare releasing that same year. Part of the reason BF1 did do well tho was how badly IW did
Doi Doi That was the reason I got BF1. I had bf3 and 4 but didn’t exactly play them a lot. After waiting forever for a good cod game I decided fuck it I’m buying battlefield. BF1 is one of if not my favourite game of all time. But this goes both ways as I assume a lot of battlefield players like me have switched to cod because of the disaster of BF5.
Ben Forster still not playing modern warfare camp fest of a game it’s horrible. Just kept playing the older battlefields and rainbow.
Jerome Schlinger i haven’t experienced as much camping in ground war, at least not anymore. I don’t play any cod traditional modes because as you said it is most definitely a camp fest.
Ben Forster ya I agree warzone at to bad but the base game was one of the biggest waste of 60 bucks. The only good thing about the game was the campaign. I tried ground war and was the worst experience ever everybody camps on the roofs with one shoot snipers without bullet drop. then after a week I went back to battlefield
Jerome Schlinger well I’m not gonna lie and say that I didn’t feel the same way at some point. I did the least ideal action and decided to try to adapt the way I play. I don’t know if there are still campers on roofs as much anymore because I have played the maps enough that I know how to avoid them anyways. However even in ground war you don’t get the same feeling of all out war than in battlefield. The environment in battlefield 1 is unbeatable and ground war is most definitely cod just on a bigger map. Battlefield has an amazing talent of making you feel like your in a movie. However ground war doesn’t capture that same feeling however personally I find it fun anyways.
Battlefield 5 is just a bootleg version of battlefield 1

Really? I didn’t know that. I love that channel.
Thats great info lol, have about 1k hours of bf1 never knew this. God bless Indie
@@LinkRnr1 we need a expansion pack that Has Indy voice over the Codex Entries.
and that's the final push I needed, gonna have to go check that channel out
I watched their videos on WW1, subbed to them early 2016.
It was this game that made me buy German WW1 gear. From the helmet and boots to the pouches and the assault pack, it was this game that started my love for buying history as a hobby. This game is definitely an absolute MASTERPIECE
I still to this day think this is the best trailer ever released. like i was in the back of my work van taking a "break" just watching this over and over again with my apprentice.
The war stories in this game genuinely made me emotional sometimes and I’m not ashamed to admit that
Gamers Home definitely. Bf1 had a legendary soundtrack

When you were talking about how the defence is stronger on some maps, I just had to think back on how I was part of a desperate defence on conquer hell. We were down to the last sector and the enemy still had a lot of reserves and all 3 battalions. But against all odds and with constantly shifting battle lines, we held the line for ze glory of ze kaiser! Anyway, wanted to share that.
I don’t think enough people understand that if this game were realistic, it would literally just be one side camping the whole time with mostly scout class weapons while the other just get their asses beat.
Maybe after a few hours, or days, or weeks the roles would switch up.
There’d be basically little to no vehicles (especially if you were on the Central Powers’ side). And the ones you do have would probably die of engine failure in the middle of no man’s land.
And, if it were realistic, the majority of the gameplay wouldn’t be spent fighting. You’d get to repair trenches, hide in dugouts for several hours at a time from artillery barrages or spend several hours loading artillery, be on guard duty, execute dying horses, spend several hours stealing food from nearby towns because your rations haven’t arrived yet, and best of all, maintaining the local latrines!
I like to think for Avanti that since it's being retold by the guy to his daughter as a story, he made himself out to be much tougher plus the armor as to reassure his daughter that he wasn't close to dying but in reality was.
It's obviously propaganda. Italy wasn't that good in ww1... *12 battles of the isonzo for example*
@@AB-bg7os They weren't excellent but still badass and courageous, as much as any other military during that horrible time.
@@AB-bg7os I saw this on the trailer for the upcoming ww1 game isonzo, thought I would share.

History lesson in screaming on the battle field.
Soldiers did actually scream during battle to hype themselves up and also put fear into the bones of the enemy. It also helped getting the last bit of strength out they're bodies.
That's it class have fun and stay hydrated
Still present today in things like Karate
@@PsychoDog_Music or jiu jutsu
Isn't getting every last bir of your strength out... Hyping yourself...
@@lxeedye7one662 not really hyping yourself up is building energy do do
I can only imagine how tired and miserable so many soldiers felt. When I hear stories of marching through the freezing cold, starving to death, and to trying to make it somewhere where you'll only be surrounded by horror and death it just makes me all the more thankful for every single day that I'm blessed with food, shelter, and my family not under any constant threat or anything.
Even as crummy as life can seem, most of us here are still so lucky. I wish we'd all remember that and help lessen the world's misery.
Got this for free through the PlayStation Store and it’s been such a cool game experience, I’m not even an avid gamer either but I’ve been hooked

"would you have prefered a game where you sat in the trenches all day and you are constantly pummled with mustard gas"
Hell yeah that sounds like a pretty awesome horror-FPS game
DivinityOfBLaze sounds like verdun (the game) if you ask me
@@benno._.72 yeah
@@benno._.72 Sounds like a boring ass game - > Verdun
you gave me an idea
@@cantingvenus2 Is not that boring. Is a bit hard because is pretty realistic (trenches, carges in the no man land, die in literaly in one shot) and it can be hard at the first matches, but once you learn how to play well and how to use the various types of weapons you can get a lot of fun. I think that if you like ww1 and you are searching for a game that try to be as much realistic as possible, you should at least try it ;) try to search for some gameplays on Youtbe
Why am I hyped now for a game that’s been out for years?
because it is truly the best of the best battlefield game ea have ever made. Bf4 is fun and all, but its not as good as bf1.
Because it's a MASTERPIECE...
Its on sale on steam i think.
Your lucky.
I actually bought it at GameStop for 99 cents no cap
Got the ultimate pass on Xbox for 1 quid and it has this game on it I'm so stoked
Honestly adding experimental and weapons we know existed with a single photo is really awesome seeing how ww1 could have been which I think is cool some guns I never knew existed I had no idea sub machine guns originated from the trenches but makes sense
verdun is what got me into battlefield as the trench warfare and old weapons aspect was really a really new experience compared to the other fps games where everyone had a full auto gun

this would imply even hardline is better than battlefield 5.
Lets not get ridiculous.
Jebus it’s not ridiculous, hardline is soooooo much better

I have relatives that were from Austria. According to my grandfather, my Godfather served in the Luftstreitkräfte and I may have had more relatives serve. The funny thing is, my great grandfather immigrated from Austria, and served in the 3rd Infantry Division in the Mexican Border War and World War 1. I may have had relatives fight each other in this war.
Never have I ever gotten into a game before, let alone a multi-player game. Game had me screaming as I charged enemies, and really getting into the thick of it.
"20 Million men participated in fighting the 'War to End All Wars'. It ended nothing."
That quote honestly stings the most to me, mostly because of how harshly and coldly true it is (as it pertains to wars on the same scale and danger as WW1). I mean, WW2 happened right after and the extended Cold War with proxy wars in between happening after WW2... The first World War was a war of pointlessness and Sunk-Cost Fallacy, and kind of showed how everyone involved were in some way failing to learn from the past.
EDIT: Some guy pointed out that I got the quote wrong and I double checked; they were right. So I changed it.
Err... It's 60 million that PARTICIPATED in ww1, ww2 is when 60 million died
WW1 served as the end of the colonial empires, so it achieved a purpose as well.
I think we can all agree that Battlefield has the most inspiring prologues (the mode you have to play the first time you open up your game) and the best music along with the most moving lines and quotes in FPS history.

I love to come back to this legendary video every now and then
30:32 personally my favorite moments are when both teams are fighting tooth and nail to win the game and in those moments even if my team loses the offensive or defense im still left with that rush of achievement knowing both sides gave it their all.
What I loved about this game is that every moment feels like you’re playing the trailer. It’s crazy, chaotic, explosive...it captures that feeling of storming the trenches with your brothers in arms every time you spawn in.
I could not agree more and if you really like that feeling titanfall 2 recreates that feeling just as good
The only other game to every make me feel like that (to a slightly lesser extent at that despite how much I loved it) was titanfall 2. The level of intensity felt when trying to defend a fortress in operations or the feeling of badassery of riding a horse through the back lines cutting down the enemy cannot be matched. The war stories were perfect. The maps were beautiful unique and actually provide good gameplay and depth for tactics. The weapon design is phenomenal. They were so satisfying to use.
@@markneillmusic9082 dude Tf2 made me feel exactly what you’re talking about
Yes and I really do feel like I’m in a trailer when it’s operations and their are no tickets left and I’m on the defending team
@@donslykong7312 it really does feel the same
I think they missed an opportunity in the campaign to use the old "perma-death" mechanic where you become a different soldier when you die. They did it the first mission, but after that it feels a lot like a power fantasy campaign that's trying to remind you that a lot of people died in this war while you gun down thousands.
Obviously you need a balance here, but I think the "perma-death" would have done so much better.
Agreed bro😤👍
They wanted to focus on iduvidual soldiers and make the player actually care about dying. If they had multiple soldiers the story wouldn't be as impactful as you could end up only having a few seconds with each guy and not truly care about them or what their fighting for. Also having multiple soldiers would make the game realy boring as their would be no diffuculty. (Assuming that what you meant is swapping between soldiers while making progress with each ones life)
@@jcoward8845 he's talking a out the war stories, not the multiplayer.
@@vmann8168 You can make them care about each soldier much like they did in the intro, where once you die it tells you their names and birth and death dates, or even save it until the end, where the end of each story shows you a memorial of every soldier you died as.
Difficulty would absolutely still be there, as you only have so many soldiers. They could also make it so you die easily, so instead the difficutly comes in how you approach the battle, stuff like that.
Also I think many might disagree with this last point, but I think you could still have "individual" characters by having them be unplayable. You follow their story as the soldiers around them.
I thought that BF1 was just an AU of WW1, like it had just gone on for a couple more years, which is why they had SMGs and whatnot
