To be fair, Hardline was ment to emulate the typical, tv cop thriller / drama that was all the rage at the time (usually lasting only a season) and I think they nailled it.
I have always wondered what happens if you press that button Edit: there is a video called "Battlefield Hardline Freeze" or something which shows what happens
*Hot Take:* Hardline was my favorite Battlefield game and a severely underrated gem, not only because of the Cops-and-Robbers action movie theme, but also because you could play on larger vehicle maps without fear of being blown up by tanks lurking around every corner.
I'd like to credit my five year old son as my inspiration for my work on the project. Running around loudly exclaiming " whoosh, boochsh, eeeard, vroooom" while slamming his helicopter everywhere really led the vision for this cinematic masterpiece.

Hardline was a love letter to those Hollywood-esque action and cop movies, so it's clearly intentional. Such an entertaining game. The fan's overwhelming and unjustified critics harmed the game a lot. Never ceases to amaze me how players prefered 2042 to Hardline.

@@ad3mn Honestly not really. It's just based on your preference really. If you like more infantry focused combat with city/suburban styled maps, then hardline is for you. I personally enjoy it more then 4, though it never gets any players.
@@Tyler-Bravo Can you give an actual reason as to why you think it sucks? And no, "it isn't battlefield because it's cops and robbers" is not an valid reason.

One of the most underrated bf games, its up there as one of my favourites it got roo much hate for moving away from the soldiers and to the Cops/Robbers area. It also has some of my favourite game modes in the series
This Is One of the best cutscene ever made in a video game. The soldier looking at you After Mendoza Smash the Window Is the perfect way to describe the insanity of the situation. It seems that all the people that are in the cutscene, from the pilot of the helicopter to the enemies, are all sayng "WTF is going on?" Like the protagonists 😅 really underrated story mode! unlike other game, Hardline had a soul and a clear identity. Really deserve more consideration!
Judging by the game being a spin-off of the franchise famous for people jumping off fighter jet and shooting enemy jet with RPGs or using C4 to make tank fly across buildings. This is normal.
@@lilbu223 risky for sure cause it’s meant to be large scale battles but I mean they did it with cops and robbers so I’m sure they could have come up with something fun. Devs need more creative freedoms and fans need to stop being so critical. Maybe we’ll get fun games

There’s a mission almost exactly like this in COD. It could have been Advanced Warfare but I’m pretty sure it was Ghosts. In fact, that’s what I thought this was at first.

Fun fact, when you break into the building and stumble upon the soldiers you have the option to pull out your badge and tell them in a unsure way "freeze?"

The soldiers turning to the protagonist after smashing through the window was actually hilarious. A perfect amount of "wtf" and awkward staring xD
