BEST MOVIE QUOTES
“There is a difference between doing what is right and following orders. When the line gets blurred, that’s when lives are lost.”
— SSgt. Henry Blackburn • Battlefield 3
“Beyond the blood and the mud, there are people. Some are boys who have never seen the world. And others are men who will never see home again.”
— Narrator • Battlefield 1
“Trucks, choppers, tanks… doesn’t matter what they drive. If it has an engine, Sweetwater will find a way to crash it.”
— Preston Marlowe • Battlefield: Bad Company 2
“Every war has its turning point. Sometimes it’s a battle, sometimes it’s a decision, and sometimes it’s the sacrifice of a single soldier.”
— Sgt. Kimble “Irish” Graves • Battlefield 4

— Prologue Briefing • Battlefield 1
BEHIND THE SCENES
On-Set Stories & Production Secrets
Live-Fire Weapon Acoustics
DICE’s audio team traveled to military proving grounds and desert shooting ranges with multi-channel field recorders, capturing authentic gunfire echoes, tank shell impacts, and jet flyovers from varying distances to create the franchise’s realistic spatial combat mix.
Levolution & Dynamic Destruction
To pioneer real-time environmental collapse—such as collapsing Shanghai skyscrapers and busting massive sea dams—engineers wrote custom physics destruction subroutines within Frostbite to process structural micro-destruction without crashing 64-player multiplayer servers.
Real-World Photogrammetry Scans
Environment artists physically trekked through the Sinai Desert, Argonne Forest, and remote Nordic mountain passes, taking hundreds of thousands of high-resolution RAW photos to scan authentic rock formations, muddy trenches, and terrain textures directly into the 3D pipeline.
FILMING LOCATION
GLOBE-SPANNING PRODUCTION
Key Filming Locations
FRANCE
Argonne Forest & Meuse Trenches
The dense, fog-covered woodlands and muddy trench networks of northeastern France provided the direct topographical reference for the brutal, close-quarters infantry warfare of the Argonne Forest map.
MIDDLE EAST
Sinai Desert & Hejaz Outposts
The vast expanse of sand dunes, sun-baked sandstone villages, and desert railway tracks inspired the sweeping open-scale tank warfare and armored train battles of the Sinai Desert combat zone.
CENTRAL ASIA
Caspian Border & Oil Infrastructure
Industrial oil pipelines, coastal border checkpoints, and massive communications towers along the Caspian basin served as the blueprint for the franchise’s signature combined-arms sandbox map.
SHANGHAI, CHINA
Siege of Shanghai & Waterfront Promenades
The waterfront skyscrapers, pedestrian plazas, and bridges along the Huangpu River formed the urban battleground featuring the franchise’s most iconic skyscraper collapse.
