Battlefield 1 is “Biggest Launch in DICE History”

4.4
DICE’s Battlefield 1 has been a great success since launching on October 21st. According to the developer, which released an infographic covering the first 10 days for the FPS spanning from October 18th to 27th, 59 million hours were collectively spent by players in-game.

Nine million of those hours were in Operations mode. Around 32 million Battlepacks earned and 1.6 million Behemoth vehicles later, the Scout knife was judged the most dangerous melee weapon while horses were the best soldier-killing vehicle at 5.8 million kills.

DICE has noted Battlefield 1 to be its biggest launch in company history due to the daily active player count. As of now, the developer noted that it was ahead of Battlefield 4 when comparing launch week player numbers (though exact figures haven’t been provided).

One of the best games I have ever played and the hype was there all the way though since the first trailer, they outdone there selfs on it and is an amazing game to play

JayPosted:

Amazing game. I'd say 8/10 due to camping ******* with shotguns. To me it's the best BF to date. Just hope the DLC's match the hype for the game.

RobPosted:

Definitely lived up to the hype for me is amazing.

ODST Game got stale real quick. It's a gimmick game getting people to play "WW1" with prototype weapons from after WW1. Notice how none of what is said is the actual number of games sold! It was better than BF4 but unless they pull out real numbers and say they sold X units, BF1 was a flop compared to IW which has over 5 million entries in the leaderboards so far. That's 5 million unique players owning and playing IW.


You must suck at it. I'm at 475 spm & 1.35 kd and I normally suck. And I'm 70 hours in and still think it's the most epic fps game since ever.
