If you can arrest them, you earn a huge experience point boost.
You can arrest any criminal, but there are more valuable criminals with warrants that you find by scanning enemies in different areas.
Since Mendoza is a cop, Visceral added the ability to arrest criminals. You gain experience for completing levels and finding evidence. Picking up weapons also unlocks them, but the selection is small. Collecting evidence unlocks new weapons, which are extremely necessary towards the end of the campaign. You’re given a phone scanner early and can locate evidence hidden in levels. The length of individual episodes varies and what Electronic Arts considers gameplay could be simply driving toward a location. The single player campaign is fun, but there’s a lot of time spent listening to conversations. There is also a lot story not even explained other than a couple lines. Important characters in the beginning are set to the side and relationships between characters don’t make sense. While the overall story is interesting, there are a lot of missteps. It plays exactly like a mini-series with previews and recaps of episodes.
The campaign is broken down into ten episodes. There are some issues with audio and video sync later in the campaign, but the actors’ performances really help to sell the plot. It makes Hardlines’ fictional Miami a lot more believable. Instead of just using their voices, the cast had facial scans and what looks like motion capture to add realism to cutscenes. Hardline’s cast consists of actors like Nicholas Gonzalez as Mendoza and Kelly Hu as Khai Minh Dao, his partner. The supporting cast is also fleshed out really well. Giving the main character a name, face, and spoken lines adds a lot of depth to previously silent protagonist of BF 4. You play the entire game as Nicholas Mendoza, a Miami drug detective. It’s obvious that one of the main goals was to make the single player campaign compelling. Hardline is very different with Visceral Games taking the lead and DICE assisting. BF 4 took a Michael Bay approach by shoving huge fire fights anywhere possible. A better, broader campaign with plot problemsīattlefield never had an amazing single player campaign.
