Let me first off state that I have been playing First Person Shooter Games for the last 12 years starting back in the days of Golden Eye, then Halo 1, 2, 3, Reach, and 4. I then switched to Call of Duty from Modern Warfare 2, Black OPs, Modern Warfare 3, to Black Ops 2. I have always been mainly an online player and skipped the campaigns. I prefer real life competition. I consider myself to be a top gamer and try to always come in first place every game I play. In Black OPS 2 I was rated a Master ranking for Team Death match. Currently I own the Xbox 360, PS3 and the new Xbox One. Now to Battlefield 4
When this game was first released, there were many bugs made the game feel incomplete and would hold back your complete satisfaction with the game. It is now about a month later and most of the bugs are gone. Some of the bugs were not being able to save the campaign mode at all. I was two hours deep into the campaign already and tried to save thinking I could come back later. But to my surprise and dismay I had to start from the beginning again. I was not a happy “camper”. But its fixed now.
Weapons and Guns - each weapon is much more realistic in this game than Call of Duties. You have to account for bullet drop from long distances, fire rate, leading the target more when they are moving, and there is a lot more customization of each weapon with different attachments and barrels.
Although there isn't kill streaks that give you a super power up like a chopper, pred drone, UAV, and care package, ect the game includes different starting packages that are completely customizable. I play as a medic so I can revive people when they die within five seconds plus dish out health packets to damaged teammates. There is also a ammo "supplies" class and a "recon" and "engineer class. Each have their own pros that they bring to the table. Have a team together online and they can work together with the different classes very well.
Overall I think the game has much more versatility, action, more enjoyable than Call of Duty could hope to be. I heard many of my friends who tried to get me to play Battlefield over Call of Duty say this to me. Call of Duty is for kids Battlefield is for adults. I couldn't agree more after playing it.
Buy this game, you will not regret it.
