    Quick Question are the two Battlefield games single players any fun?
    The Hardline one is pretty good, unique since it's kinda like a cop drama.

    Thanks, will probably give them a shot. Never played the Battlefield games so it will at least be a different experience.

    I liked Hardline. Like JB said, it was unique as a cop drama type story instead of the usual Battlefield/COD war stories.

    Battlefield 4, while the fire fights and parts of the missions were fun, I still am not sure what the hell was going on in the story. It just seemed like a very disjointed story with sudden leaps of time between missions. For instance after one mission in a mountain prison (Russian prison I think), there's a cut scene of you and your group trying to survive a snowstorm in the mountains, huddling around a campfire.

    Then next thing after a loading screen, you're in apparently some coastal Russian or Chinese town in urban camo and whatnot. Made no damn sense that big of a leap of time and setting.

    I don't know, I may have to go back and play it again and try to follow the story a little closer, but it just seemed sort of cobbled together story, like they designed the surroundings and missions first, and then tried to create a storyline around the missions.

    Yeah they put more into the story for Hardline than they did for Battlefield 4. A lot more.

    It definitely showed. While the Battlefield 4 campaign was fun from a game play standpoint, damn was that story confusing to follow.

    Now Hardline, that was actually a fairly interesting story to play through. I was actually interested to see how the story was going to play out and see how it ended. I may have to go back and play that again, it's been a while. I think I got it on sale for PS4, so I haven't played it on One yet.

    I'm on the fence but leaning towards buying after a price drop.

    Later this year, we'll also add even more blockbuster content to The Vault, including:

    - EA SPORTS™ UFC® 2

    Nice to see more content. Most of that is fluff but the Vault is definitely growing. Anyone with an XBOX1 should have Access IMO.

    They will not let me use my $$$ from my xbox account (gift cards). Since it is an automatic renewal they need a way to get your money. Anyways rant over.

    Look at his early posting and where he's replied to really old threads. As well, he never replies to anyone else... Always fairly generic comments, though surprisingly on topic.

    also who banned Comprar? He was my favorite poster and always stayed on topic. You mods keep screwing with the machines and that shit will come back to haunt you.
