Those looking for more of the same Battlefield multiplayer action will no doubt lap this up; it changes very little to the tried and tested formula, and is therefore very easy for fans to jump into in order to experience new maps and game modes. However, you kind of get the feel that there’s nothing here multiplayer-wise that couldn’t have just been released as DLC for Battlefield 4. Those that place value in Battlefield’s single player campaigns however, will probably want to steer clear, as in my opinion Hardline’s is the weakest in the series yet.","2025-01-27T04:57:10.252556-05:00",{"id":115,"logo":129,"name":130,"slug":131,"tags":132,"bluesky":133,"twitter":131,"youtube":134,"facebook":135,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":136,"website_url":137,"score_format":46,"average_score":138,"default_timezone":48,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":49,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":139,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":77,"reviews_editor_email":139,"editor_in_chief_email":139,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGameSpew-Logo.jpg","GameSpew","gamespew","[  \n  'independent',\n  'women_led',\n  'online_media'\n  ]","gamespew.com","UChqYxsfGxsXwrZ76wm7_bWQ","officialgamespew","Your independent site for gaming news, reviews, features, guides and more.

The story might be fairly throwaway, but the environments, set pieces, and the gameplay scenarios you'll often find yourself in are memorable and make up for the clichés and nonsensical plot details. When it comes to multiplayer, Hardline's slight mode shakeups don't mean much when the respawn system is such a mess. Granted there are maps and modes that don't suffer from this issue, but even at their very best, the various selections feel like minor tweaks on the usual formulas.","2025-01-19T09:24:01.56392-05:00",{"id":254,"logo":266,"name":267,"slug":268,"tags":269,"bluesky":270,"twitter":271,"youtube":271,"facebook":272,"mastodon":26,"muckrack":26,"claimed_at":26,"description":273,"website_url":274,"score_format":46,"average_score":54,"default_timezone":48,"last_review_date":26,"stats_updated_at":49,"headquarters_city":26,"news_editor_email":26,"platforms_covered":26,"claimed_by_user_id":26,"reviews_this_month":17,"active_authors_count":17,"headquarters_country":26,"reviews_editor_email":26,"editor_in_chief_email":26,"published_authors_count":17,"published_reviews_count":17},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FPure-Xbox-Logo.jpg","Pure Xbox","pure-xbox","[  \n  'independent',\n  'online_media'\n  ]","purexbox.com","purexbox","PureXbox","The latest Xbox Series X|S news, reviews and features + some retro Xbox 360 & Original Xbox.
