I think it’s the best possible name for this game.

It is WWI-era, so there’s that, but it keeps it true to series in terms of it’s core chronology.

Now that I can talk about it, I was asked to give my input on what to name the game back in February. My opinion was Battlefield: The Great War.

I do see why they went with this, however.

I remember you talking about this yesterday. That’s why I was wondering if others felt the same way.

You know you can’t ask stuff like that…

Quoting on this forum looks terrible at the moment. Anyway…

I don’t mind the name, I do find it appropriate, considering the game’s setting. A Battlefield “2” will not be possible as that name has already been taken. I’m already wondering what the sequel will be called, and when it’ll be set.

I thought it might be worth a roll of the dice, you never know.

I’m not sure how “good” of a name it is, but it is definitely 100% clever/cheeky.

Not a fan of the name. So far it’s about the only thing I dislike about the concept.

I agree with Poolsharks idea for a name, it’s more fitting.

At first I was like hmmmm Battlefield 1… It fits the setting of the game as well as it is fairly easy to remember.

I’d have prefered Battlefield The Great War. Sounds good.
