Substandard for Battlefield

User Rating: 3 | Battlefield Hardline PS4

I loved battlefield. I played each one since Battlefield Bad Company. Every year they raised the bar for themselves to be better. I know it may be wrong to compare this to last years, Battlefield 4, but I have to. The staff at Visceral waited to release it to avoid the errors of last years debut. Granted the story is much better and has a greater story line, the multiplayer is lacking. Like most gamers this day, I love my online gameplay. I was upset to see poor classes and maps this year. EA owns both DICE and Visceral. This years battlefield looked and felt more like Medal of Honor Warfighter instead of battlefield. You're offered around 5 primary and secondary weapons per class. I know DICE is focused on the new Star Wars Battlefront this year, but couldn't the developers at Visceral stopped by the office at DICE? or at least used the same graphics that were used last year. Like I said above, the story line is much better, but if you're an avid online player like I am, you won't be much of a fan. I guess I could be a little harsh on this game since, I pre ordered it, and got less than I thought it was worth. But I truly think that battlefield 4 was a much better game.
