Devs not gone for authenticity, inclusion of front line female combatants should be proof enough.
Why you quotin’ muh trollin’ ?? =p
I think some people just want the american hollywood ww2 that starts and ends on d-day. I love how this ww2 game feels more global then just americans coming to europe to save the day
None whatsoever, its better to try and forget its supposedly based loosely on WW2
What did you play Mohaa on ? I played it on PC for years in multiplayer Objective realism mode. I was part of some good european teams on Clanbase at the time haha. Good old days.
Oh yeah, I did remembered fanbase/community wanted an BF World War 2 video game as well. But, I don’t think they asked for laser beam automatic weapons (lol). One question: what’s RBD? As for WW2 vibes, nah! It feels like I’m playing BF WW2 in modern warfare setting game & I didn’t say a word!
I dont think the majority of the community would have liked a more immersive/realistic ww2 experience. imagine how many people would be complaining if iron sights were forced on them? or semi-automatics? How many people would scream bloody murder if the weapons were faction specific? Know that i’d stand behind all those changes, but i also know in my heart that this playerbase just wouldnt agree with it.
Spawn beacon…need we say more?
Comment of the day.
Faction-specific weapons wouldn’t work besides in a set gamemode for it in my opinion, coming from experience in RO2/RS. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not personally one who felt particularly annoyed about it but man were there plenty of players who’d switch to the German team given the immediate chance just because they wanted to use an MkB(42) or an MG34/42 rather than any of the Russian guns, and God forbid you wanted to play a Rising Storm campaign because most of the time it seemed like people would immediately quit if they found they’d loaded in as the Japanese and they just wanted to run and gun with a BAR or Garand.
Heck, most of the time if you saw someone who was a “Hero” meaning they could spawn with guns of the other nation, you’d see them using German or American stuff (not so sure about the latter, I actually don’t remember seeing many Japanese heroes).
Random Bullet Deviation and yes, many people wanted it removed. Remove RBD without replacing it with decent recoil you get laser beam weapons.
Can somebody explain why this response even remotely makes sense? We have a lot of media that is actually from WWII. Like we even have raw footage from D-Day of all things.
When people are talking about the WWII vibe they are talking about an aesthetic that matches actual historical documentation, photography, and film. Saying “I wasn’t physically present” is kind of irrelevant seeing as we have first hand footage from people who actually were.
i think the biggest problem is when most people think ww2, they dont think africa or belgium, they jump straight to normandy and Bastogne
simple…no.
No, they talk about the Holywood version of WW2, Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan etc.
Until and unless you actually experience something, you will never know how that thing ‘feels’.
D-day wasn’t the only thing in WW2. The locations are defintately WW2 accurate as are the weapons. Yes, fine the women soliders, and lack of swastikas etc takes away from it a bit, but they had to add women soliders etc for all teh diff types of players. this has a global feel, WW2 was very apparent in middle east, Norway etc. not just the beaches of france. im sure they will add americans/russians etc in the future. but for now, the immersion is there. seeing a tiger tank roll by with a STuka dropping a bomb in the air while i lay some fire down with a MG32..whats the problem
bf1 felt nothing like a ww1 scenario … bfv is closer to ww2 than bf1 is to ww1
what did u expect anyway?.. bfv is actually prety close to ww2 as it can get
But that’s disingenuous to the argument itself. Clearly the argument is in favor of a game that matches the aesthetics of the raw footage. People like Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers because they took extra care to be as authentic to that footage and history as possible.
We have raw footage from Africa as well, so again there is no reason to say to people that they have no idea what it was like when we can literally look at it in motion.
Those are everything I wanted in this game lol!
