Battlefield is ℱa franchise that’s created by DICE, and they’ve always made sure 💝their games are packed full of little easter eggs and secrets. When many people look at FPS games, they don’t really think of challenge beyond the skill of the actual multiplayer and team playing. People do🍃n’t really think of FPS games, especially this big in size, as a way to introduce puzzles and more creative aspects. We wanted to give a bit of the spotlight to the Battlefield series, especially Battlefield 1. This series really pushes the limits and never lets us down, but we do have some opinions form the greater community behi🅺nd this game that many of youꦅ probably relate to in many ways!
We’ll be showcasing fifteen different things that they've put in their games that push the limits of the FPS genre,. Others are negative in some respect and quite surprising. As much as we love this series, there are some negative aspects to playing it that you might not⛦ notice right away and the reas🐭on they’re on this list is simply because it’s surprising that DICE thought that it would be okay to include them in the first place.
This list will combine a ton of different aspects 🉐to keep it interesting and if you have found any of these points or thought that how often you respawn in the game is annoying, share this article with their friends so they can rel🐲ive the annoying and amazing aspects of this game!
15 Actual Unicorns?
If you weren’t aware, the newest game in this franchise allows you to actually ride into battle on a horse. But they also made sure to include a little secret as well: unicorns! Yes, you can actu🐼ally ride into battle on a unicorn. But it’s not just any unicoꦬrn, it can shoot rainbows, it’s obviously magical.
It looks awesome, and it can even talk!
Sadly, if you haven’t been playing this game for a long period of time, you might not be able to actually get this easter egg, but it sure is surprising nonetheless. Back in April, DICE created a special April Fool’s prank by adding this magical creature into the game. They even tricked the players into not even letting ✤them on to the joke by creating a whole other horse, but when they clicked to ride that horse it would be a unicorn.
14 And Yes, Zombies Too
Unlike many other popular FPS ♕games with massive franchises 💧like this particular series, Battlefield 1 has no kind of zombie mode. Even though many people have been asking for this kind of mode to be added, it hasn't been, even though the community 🐬wants it. But DICE tricked everyone and added a surprising easter egg for people who happen to be curious enough. There is an area of the game called Fort De Vaux, in this area it’s possible to find a door with the written word, “Isolement.” When you come across this door, you’ll notice that it’s blocked off, chained, and screams aꦐre coming from behind it. You’ll just have to open the door and find out who’s in there. But be careful, you might just find a gruesome zombie back there that will chase you anywhere you go if you don’t banish him for good.
13 The Doom Mashup
One small aspect of this game that has set the franchise apart has been the reload animations and rare ones you can collect while playing the game. Not many ga🦩mes offer this unique kind of personalization, it really creates more immersion and makes the game more fun to play.
But there is one very rare animation, and many people didn’t even realize how special it was!
For those of you out there who have been gaming for a very long time, you’d probably be able to tell exactly what animation🌟 this special treat i❀s from. It’s from Doom! At first many people thought the animatio🌺n was laggy because of how choppy it was, but as soon as you see the ಌreload animation right next to the original Doom gameplay, there’s no way you can m💦iss it. This is such 🌠a fantastic touch to the game, especially if you love classics like Doom.
12 Creepy Baby Crying
We don’t know about you, but we would like 🌳to live our lives without ever hearing a baby cry. Especiall♛y when it’s coming from a mysterious door, WHAT?! Babies crying in a game with spooky surroundings are just awful. It’s creepy, and totally an easter egg I wouldn’t mind just never finding ever.
For those who were able to play the CTE you probably found a door at so💜me point around the area of Prise De Tahure. If you actually hit the door with a melee weapon, you’ll hear a baby crying, as well as a mother trying to calm the baby down. While it’s obvious what the intent was, to make it very realistic, it honestly just came off very creepy to many people who found this without really thinking about it. Can you imagine what the fir𝔉st person thought when they accidentally hit this creepy door?
11 A Scary Dark Souls Reference
If you’ve played the hair-pulling game Dark Souls, you’ll recognize these scene straight away. You might even completely turn off your console if you see this easter egg because of how many flashbacks you’ll exp🍸erience. On the map They Shall Not Pass, you’ll notice that th🐓ere's a sword sticking out of a bonfire that’s burning away. It’s not only an ode to this amazing game, but you can actually use it as well.
Sadly only one person can pick it up per round.
If the individual has it and perishes, it will be gone from the game until the next round. When you hit someone with this melee weapon, it only takes one hit. It’s very overpowered, but it’s so much fun to see people literally flee from you as soon as they see that you have the sword. You’re ba𒅌sically unstoppable for the time being!
10 A Huge Megalodon WIll Give You Nightmares
Not only are there zombies and unicorns, 𒆙there are also giant sharks rising from the depths of the tiny puddle. While many people already know about this surprising surprise, we just had to include it because it’s so strange and weird! Ever since the fourth installment in this franchise, the community has believed that there was a Megalodon somewhere on the map, but it actually didn’t exist for years. Because of so many rumors DICE actually added it into the game in one of their expansions for that particular game. But moving forward to the most recent release of Battlefield 1, the Megalodon actually is in the game. You🦹 can see the Megalodon in the DLC map Fort De Vaux. Yes, the same map as the zombie. Even if you read this and try to find the Megalodon, we can sure promise that its sudden appearance will still surprise you!
9 You Can End People With Gates
If you don’t want to deal with your enemies face to face and you’re not one that♓ enjoys fair fights, you can actually bring an end to your enemy team without even firing a weapon.
You can choose to take out your enemies with style if you happen to playing on the map called Ballroom Blitz.
If you run through the gates, which will be located in an archway, they’re very hard to miss. You’ll notice right away that they are hanging open and are a bit suspicious. Once you run through the gates, if you turn to your left, there will be a lever there so you can drop them on anyone that happened to be following you. Or if you practice enough you can time it right and it’s an instant elimination! We’re not quite sure how someone figured this out, probably by accident, but it is very cool nonetheless! It also makes the game a 🔥bit more interesting than just a typical FPS.
8 Horses Make It Easy To Cheat
Like we’ve menti🌼oned above there are many interesting added features to this game, including horses. There's a little trick that basically make horses just as strong as tanks. It’s fun if you’re on a horse, but if you’re constantly being eliminated by those on horses, it’s annoying, to say the least. In our opinion and the opinion of the community, this easter egg/hack is a bit too far for the game. It makes the gameplay very unbalanced and unfair.
Basically, when you’re on a horse it’s very strong. It’s hard to kill a horse in the game, but on top of 💞that, you will have much more ammo because of the satchels on the side of the horse. But even when those bags of ammo run out, you can actually just jump off the horse and mount the horse again and the ammo will instantly be restored to max quantity. Many people are unsure of whether this is a bug or not. Let’s hope they fix it if it is!
7 Change Your Loadout In-Game?!
Yes, but it’s not as good as it sounds, trust us. It was surprising that DICE created the customization menus the way they did in this game, because it really did tick off a ton of people. It’s difficult to use the customization, and you can ONLY access it in a match. Not only is it difficult to get to, but it’s only text based when you want to change yourꦯ loadouts as well.
It’s very difficult and takes away from the core gameplay of the game in the first place.
Who wants to start the match and not be prepared? Can you imagine joining a multiplayer match and just having to pause the game when it starts just to choose what guns you want to use? I💃t’s a bit absurd, and seems like a step back for the series. Especially since the only real way to use the customization is with a𒅌 companion app.
6 You Can Actually Destroy A Tank With This
One small element that makes this game stand out has always been the vehicles. This has always been something that has set the game apart from other FPS triple-A titles on the market. Although, we wouldn’t recommend that you try this, because of how powerful these vehicles are. But you should know that you can take out a tank just from a pistol. Granted, it’s very hard to do this and th💟ere are more powerful weapons that cause more damage. But we would recommend that if you're going to do this, try to look for an enemy ta🧔nk that is already pretty damaged. Sometimes you can take it out completely with just one clip in your pistol. You won’t get a ton of XP from doing this, but it is pretty fun, if we’re being honest. Will you be trying this stunt next time you play?
