Battlefied Hardline is a FPS game, where you can play as a cop or criminal in the multiplayer and take out each other on civilian areas. In the single player you play as a cop named Nick Mendoza in the Miami drug department to take on criminals, but a case just gets more messy for Nick and turns his life upside down. The game looks decent for 2015, the soundtrack is surprisingly good in my opinion. The campaign feels lengthy enough, even though you can get it through in like 5 - 6 hours, depending on your difficulty level and playstyle. Also, there are some collectibles in the levels, which are not felt forced for me. The campaign has a style like if you would watch a crime series on a streaming service, which I find it unique and because of this the over the top actions and the tons of twists somewhat makes sense. Multiplayer is playable and has some interesting elements, like a non combat role the Hacker, which a player can take on in a match and support it's team. Also, the ability to collect money to buy additional weapons, which you get from matches is an interesting way to implement it, but I liked it. Now, the game is not without an issue. Starting with the campaign, at the beginning it was interesting to follow, but later things just started to happen to make more over the top action and in the end the story gets messy. The ending was really questionable about why exactly all have happened to Nick or what was the point of the villain doing all of this. The AI in the campaign is quite dumb, they have tunnel vision aswell which makes this whole thing worse. Capturing criminals in the single player was interesting to do at first, but due to lack of AI it start to get boring very quickly. A lot of times they also get bugged or you would see some graphical glitch which just making this game less serious. The multiplayer is quite small, only like 30-is people playing it and it's sometimes a luck to find a server with some decent player number, but getting into the multiplayer is difficult, as mostly high level player are here who can play new players easily, not even mentioning some of the servers have their own rule set, which breaking them can make you banned. Also, this browser client is confusing and slow to use. I'm really conflicted with this game, as the campaign started out really good and had some nice traits, but from halfway point it goes downhill. The multiplayer is definitely playable, but the lack of player base and lack of understanding how certain roles work or to dodge bans from the servers makes it less enjoyable, plus to deal with the high level players. If you don't mind the over the top action in the single player I can recommend getting this one, but otherwise just skip it. Don't get this game for more than 6€.

If you are just after the campaign like me it is a surprisingly decent game. Wished they'd make another one. I was initially turned off by the negative reviews, but I think they're based off the multiplayer and the fact that it's completely different to other battlefield games. I like it and hope they make another one day.

battlefield hardline I finally finished this game the game is really good even though EA Games released it in 2015 the game is really good with its quality and cinematic scenes I wish there was a sequel to this game it would be really good I wish there was a sequel to this game Also Battlefield is separate I would like to see stories like this but unfortunately I wish I would like to see this kind of battlefication and I finished the game by playing it in about 8 hours but it was awesome it was really awesome this time despite the other Battlefield games the flow and story were really good but I wish it was a little bit I mean even though it is a 10 year old game the game is awesome but I wish they would bring the renewed version I hope EA Games go ahead and see what else will come out thanks

battlefield hardline is a 2015 cops and robbers fps game i do feel like this game is quite overhated, i know it's not a military shooter like the other battlefield games, but for what it's worth it's better than battlefield 2042 which doesn't even have a campaign don't buy this game if you're only focused on multiplayer though, quite literally nobody plays this on pc anymore, you'll have better luck getting a full match on ricochet than you do on this game i will still give it this much, this game was overhated and i'm willing to die on this hill sure, it was a bit cheesy, but i think the idea of it is pretty fun, games like this and payday 2 are nice, breath of fresh air i would say, i enjoyed the concept of straying away from military shooters with battlefield hardline overall? 7.5/10

Oct. 2024

Played the BETA on PS3 and had a fun time. but i hate to see the servers for PC become dead (depends on the date and time i guess since other people make plans on making game nights with this game) but seeing people play it more on console than PC kinda makes me wonder if they ever thought to switch to PC one day and realize that this game is dead as hell on multiplayer mode for some reason. yes i get it, it doesn't deserve the name battlefield due to the feeling of the game NOT feeling like a battlefield game. But that doesn't mean it should die in a way. i'd say REVIVE the game again and maybe people will rethink their opinions (if they wanted to)
