That's a fair score from Eurogamer if you take into account that they only have three "scores"; Avoid, Recommended & Essential. Recommended could translate to a 6 or 7/10 which lines up with most review scores for this game, no?
I don't think Eurogamer works that way. Far Cry review for example don't show none of these three scores. I think recommended would be more like a 7,5/8That's a fair score from Eurogamer if you take into account that they only have three "scores"; Avoid, Recommended & Essential.

They actually have four, "nothing" sits inbetween "avoid" and "recommended".That's a fair score from Eurogamer if you take into account that they only have three "scores"; Avoid, Recommended & Essential.

Pretty much every comment section of any review is a cesspool. I mean look at this thread lol
edit. Also the FarCry 5 thread is becoming something else. I don't want to open these threads no longer.
Pros:
Cons:
- Unique gameplay you won't find elsewhere.
- A strong foundation for cooperative play.
- Dynamic sandbox means a surprise is always around the corner.
- A beautiful world to explore.
- Fun and humor are never punished.
- Questionable longevity.
- With limited launch offerings, the game's success is dependent on post-launch support.
- Lack of meaningful progression for many.
- Solo players will feel lonelier than ever.
Jez was reviewing Far Cry 5.
Think you missed the point abit about what he was trying to make. ;)Single-player aside, which is a hollywood introduction to the multiplayer mechanics, Battlefield 1 is difficult and in no way robs the user from experience, or depth. There is no time, nor interest to do tasks like shift gears, manually reload the shells or rotate the turret using knobs. A tank drivers has to position the vehicle, avoid mines, survey for danger on the ground, keep the eye on a mini-map for bombers, know when to fall back, when to repair crit, when to deploy smoke, when to abandon... and at the same time still aim and fire the turret which has its own quirks like shell falloffs or reload timings.
So yeah, a tank does all the mechanical stuff for you, but you still need to make a ton of decisions, observation and shooting yourself in order to utilize the vehicle. And if you find tank to be the "easy" tool, a plane is all of those things + fast and complex movement.
Over 300 hours and still difficult to properly locking on with fighter/attack planes, nor use bombers to reliably hit someone. Judging how a single pilot or a tank-crew can carry the game sometimes, most players aren't even close to mastering the main tools in Battlefield. Recent map-specific vehicles, behemoths and even a bombers require the co-ordination. Sure you don't have as many mechanics in a single vehicle, nor do they require the same co-ordination as a Galleon, but there is a really fast-paced multi-layered battlefield outside the vehicle which is why the game cannot focus on realistic co-op WW1 tank crew simulations.

Yea he pretty much nails it. The potential is so immense, and I love what the game is. Much Like I enjoyed Elite Dangerous on release (Which was a more complete title). But at $60, no, absolutely not. Good thing most of us are on Game Pass. I can almost gaurantee I'll pick it up later in 2018, or whenever they release respectable amounts of content, or add a more compelling loop to keep it from devolving into a griefers paradise with no reason to do anything else. Ship combat, melee and gun combat etc. Need to be enhanced and improved, different types of ships with different focuses to suit players (At least somewhat) etc. Ways to actually win encounters, instead of just attrition battles endlessly etc. It's just not ready.

Less than 24 hours before the game was officially out. I can see people giving the game an 7 or even an 8 and enjoying it... but anything above a 9 is just laughable and being dishonest. To me the game is a easily in the 6 range.If you haven't already, I highly recommend giving Sea of Thieves a try. It's a great game to play on your own and an even better game to play with friends. I've been playing it since it's early Alpha phase right up to the final Beta last week. What I love most is that even though I've been playing it for a while, going into the official release version felt like playing a whole new game. The visuals were improved and there was far more to do in the game than there was in the Beta.
Argue all you want about whether a 70 is a good metric or not but the meta critic would actually be in the mid to uppers 60's if it weren't for the two disingenuous 90 reviews.

Clean prince's take on it:
He goes as far to say that he's not even sure subbing to gamepass is worth it in its current state.
