I'll give my impressions after a weekend playing :
 
MAPS are awesome / gorgeous / intricately detailed ...fun to play & look at.
 Gameplay feels fairly balanced , matches more times than not end up extremely close ( few times it's been a blowout )
 I really sucked for a day - 1/2  until I learned better spots on map to play.  so far the Beta desert map is the most plain generic of them all , the rest are really good.
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 Bad parts : it IS the exact same netcode still, flashing the same net icons in corner of screen, even though my internet & connection are great  -BUT- it feels/ plays better I think because everything is 60HZ ( helps alot )
 
 GUN choices are weak/ limited.  Assault class literally gets 2 guns choices !  yes you read that right, 2 !  an automatic with variations on it & a shotgun w/ various variations to it.  ( I am disappointed by that big time )
 So far support & medic class get better guns & variations - But not by much. 
 
 I am guessing they are going to put the majority of new, great guns into all the Premium pack expansions --? 
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
* I am having a fun time playing it though. It is actually quite a good time. balance feels pretty good, compared to the Beta.  A few tweaks here and there and it's gold. NO where near as disastrous as their last launches ....
 
 by the end of the weekend, I was getting a lot better. I gave up on assault & stuck to Medic & Support, did my job and got lots of points.
I think I might have hit @ 10 matches being the #1 on the scoreboard on the entire team - whether we won or lost . good stuff.




I agree with aka_STEVE_b,
On most points.. it is extremely fun and gorgeous to look at.
I feel balance may be the best part of the game, but assault lags a few marks behind.
 
I think the lack of weapons choices keeps the balance at a good level.. no one with uber powerful weapons..and snipers do as they always do.. if thats your thing.
 
One thing i have noticed was the vehicle stick... meaning you spawn into a vehicle and have no controls, until you switch seats.
This may be just me as i tend to use the right side of my keyboard and remap most of the controls.
I also dont care for how dark some parts of the map are..inside some buildings the stairwells are so dark you can see nothing... so i turned up the brightness a little and it wasnt as bad.  But thats just me.
I have not played as much as others, as i have a newborn now.. so i got a couple hours in, and it was pretty fun.
I even got a squad wipe on knife kills only.  I thought there was no way i would get them all.. but 5 straight knife kills !   WOOT ! 
 
Its better than BF3 and BF4, reminds me of BF2142 in a way.. which to me was the last good BF title.
Enjoy !

BF1 is a fun game, but everything outside of the raw gameplay is atrocious.  
 
- New in-game UI is inferior to Battelog in every way (slower, less to do, less stats shown, etc)
- Zero customization of guns and vehicles (no weapon attachments and each vehicle has a preset, so no custom add-on weapons)
- Battlepacks are pointless compared to BF4
- Netcode is still trash
- Non-BF player complaints about the tank caused over-nerfing (very slow spawn rate and slow repair rate)
- Inconsistent destruction
- Lack of medals like in BF4 (no MVP medal for example)
 
This feels like three steps backwards from BF3 and BF4, which were excellent modern shooters with lots of customization and a modern UI in Battlelog.

I like it, it feels like a breath of fresh air from the stagnate pond of bf3 & 4
