Just an FYI Amazon has Battlefield 1 for 47.99$ if you have prime.

Why is this getting down voted

You guys should have expected this. I can't remember a big multiplayer game that didn't have big server issues at release.

Company's have a projection of how many copies they will sell in the first few weeks. How hard is it to prepare?

Rumor has it that there was a DDOS attack.

I think it's more so companies realize there will be an initial explosion of players that will taper off in a relatively short period of time to more manageable levels.

Probably because the discount is for pre-orders only

Ah yes. There is some speculation that the IW beta opening early could've had an effect also.

It really is. I did not care at all about the tank mission, but what is cool is you can do the war stories in any order

If this game has it, I'd say start with Squad Deathmatch. A little bigger scale than regular TDM, I think can still involve vehicles, maps not as trimmed down as with TDM, and you can just kill stuff. BF is known more for large scale objective games with tons of vehicles, but if you're new and don't have the hang of vehicle combat and navigating around a large map, it's just frustrating. Work your way up to that. Domination is a good playlist also. Capture points (only 3), no vehicles. Kind of my main one with BF4.

Yea, I really liked that. I enjoyed the beginning of the tank mission. Going through the forest was pretty intense. The second half was kind of meh. Started the Lawrence of Arabia missions yesterday and did the first one. I like that you can kind of do them however you want. I went stealth mode, but there was a perfect perch with turret you could have mowed everyone down.
