Battlefield 4 is a first-person shooter video game developed by EA DICE and released by Electronic Arts in October 2013. The game lets you play the role of a soldier in the modern setting, and while it features an interesting single-player campaign, it should rather be treated as a prelude, as the title starts to truly shine when you jump into multiplayer. Premium edition of the game is designed to improve the multiplayer experience even further with numerous exclusive features, including new customization options and the queue priority.

Battlefield 4 Premium Contents

The Premium edition of the game focuses on the multiplayer and adds numerous multiplayer-related features to make the game even more enjoyable. It comes together with all five DLCs for the BF 4: Second Assault, Naval Strike, Dragon’s Teeth, Final Stand, and China Rising, adding tons of new multiplayer maps, vehicles, weapons, gadgets, and game modes, including the age-old Capture the Flag.

Additionally, you will be given priority when trying to join the most popular and over-populated servers, allowing you to spend less time waiting and start the game quicker. On top of that, you will also get access to premium-exclusive customization options, including new camos, dog tags, paints, and emblems.

Story

The game features a single-player story-driven campaign. Set in 2020 it focuses on the fictional conflict between three global superpowers: USA, Russia, and China. Chinese admiral, Chang Wei, tries to overthrow China’s government and blame the USA for the assassination of its future leader, Jin Jié – in case he succeeds, China would gain Russia’s support, leading to another great war. As a member of Tombstone special forces, the player is tasked with stopping Chang.

Gameplay

The game is set in modern times and it lets you play the role of a soldier with access to various modern firearms, gadgets, and vehicles. Weapons can be customized with numerous attachments to adjust their performance.

Players can spot enemies and mark their positions on the minimap to make them visible for the team. The game features bullet-dropping-system, forcing players to adjust their sights accordingly when shooting at the distant targets. It is possible to shoot while swimming and counter frontal melee attacks.

Reception

Battlefield 4 received positive reviews and was considered a worthy successor to the previous game from the BF franchise. Reviewers mostly praised its fast-paced multiplayer, around which the game is focused. They appreciated how big the multiplayer maps are, as well as the improved gameplay mechanics, such as the longer delay between running and shooting, or the possibility to accurately fire longer bursts.
