10 Reasons Battlefield 5 Is Actually Great

1. Unparalleled Immersion

The impressive technical feats of a Battlefield game outshine any of the competition. Swooping vehicles, collapsing building, bullet-whipping sound, and smooth gameplay make a match on Battlefield the most immersive experience on a first-person shooter.

The sweeping score conjures up a defiant sense of confidence as you and your thirty-one other teammates charge across a war-torn and rain-speckled field into the next sector after overcoming a hard-fought point. The sheer cinematic aspect of Battlefield makes it more memorable than most other shooters in the genre.

Yet despite its bombastic elements, it is the smaller details that really seal the deal. Soldiers raising their knees higher as they run through water; snow and mud sticking to your outfit and gun after crawling; the animation of entering a tank rather than simply appearing in it on the push of a button; and being blown off your feet by an enormous explosion. It is THE only online shooter that will make grin from ear to ear as you jump, dive, crawl and dodge your way through explosions and rubble, wondering how you are still alive.

All of the little details in graphics, sound, animation and gameplay make Battlefield V unashamedly Battlefield; whilst simultaneously offering up a new high of the franchises' unparalleled level of immersion in this excellent and unappreciated shooter.
