Controls are a muscle memory that will give die-hard fans of the series be able to slide into the story with ease.

The Good: IGN suggest the game will play better on next-gen consoles, giving the game an 8.5 out of 10
"The current-gen version of Battlefield 4 isn't the ideal way to play, but it isn't damaged or deficient despite its limitations. It accomplishes less than you'll see on other platforms, but it's still a great multiplayer shooter that makes the most of its ambitions. DICE proves once again that destruction is a valuable strategic addition to competitive combat, even when it's a little ugly, and that battle reaches its full potential with two killer Commanders are bringing out the best in their squads. The campaign, on the other hand is a disappointing, but functioning and familiar game with overwhelming action and remarkable spectacle."
The Bad: Gameinformer says the single-player story line isn't on par to its multiplayer action, rating the game a 8.75 out of 10
"Battlefield 4 doesn't advance the series in any significant way, but the subtle improvements provide enough incentive for multiplayer fans to invest heavily in the land, air, and sea battles. Given the underwhelming performance of yet another story campaign, maybe DICE was on to something in ignoring single-player altogether in Battlefield 1942. Imagine what the studio could do if it invested all that manpower into making its already good multiplayer experience even better."
The AWESOME: CVG says the game's multiplayer will have you hooked, giving it a 9 out of 10
"Then, when you think it couldn't possibly get any more enthralling, any more goddamn immersive, a gigantic tropical storm thunders in and the carnage really commences.
"A triumph on a multitude of levels, Battlefield 4 is the series' most compelling package to date, a delightfully slick introduction to the next-generation of consoles and more than a good enough reason on its lonesome to pick up a PS4 or Xbox One to see what high-end PC-owning players have been banging on about for years."
