Battlefield: Hardline Thoughts

After the EA Presser during E3 I immediately went to register for the BF Hardline Beta. Initially I was really excited about the game and the whole concept. I will admit, before playing the beta, I was looking forward to the single player MUCH more than I was for the multiplayer.

After having some hands-on with Hardline my initial excitement has really gone down the tubes. The game itself does not seem very different to Battlefield 4 which at the core makes me wonder if Hardline is really just a glorified Add-on being pushed on gamers as a brand new game. Don’t get me wrong, I think the concept is really neat and I will probably still be interested in the Single Player Campaign but as far as anything brand new in gameplay, look elsewhere.

I will wait to get some hands-on time with the Single Player before dismissing it completely, but as it stands, Hardline is a disappointment.
