Look, I’m going to be honest, I’m pretty new here and have no seniority what so ever (unless you joined this forum a minute ago.. then bow down.. totally kidding lol) but I see the same thing every time a new game is announced. Now I’m not here to start anything of course but hear me out. People are always speaking their mind and handing out their opinions and that’s totally fine. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. Some of them are great. Say whatever you wish honestly. Who am I to stop you? But can we all agree that this is a WW1 shooter and it should stay that way? Like please no fancy stuff? If technology is what you want, I’m sure the new CoD has what you need as well as the past CoD’s and Battlefields. EA and DICE have dared to be different this year and I really hope it stays that way. I know a lot of you are with me and want the game to be true to the times. I think that’s why so many people are interested in this game is because of how simple and primitive the combat was then compared to now. People want something different. Not the same shooters every year that most developers produce. I personally can’t wait to finally have a good franchise take a shooter back to a simpler time. October 21st can’t come soon enough.
Wait…you mean there will be no wall jumping, jet pack, laser, thermal scopes?
Hahaha, no my friend. I’m as saddened as you are..
This could be good, the only thing I am kind I don’t want is “heroes” (like in the Battlefront game). Right now it’s is looking gritty and brutal; something that is really needed to capture the feel about this “needless” meatgrinder war without any clear good or bad guys.
All the best to Dice though; I don’t think they even could have imagine the impact of this trailer; it’s been incredible.
I don’t care about the competition, but like most of us I am very happy there are no lasers nor jetpacks in sight 
I think it’s a nice refreshing change (although I realise the wierdness of referring to one of the most brutal wars in history as refreshing) and one I’m really looking forward to. It should promote more teamplay, tactics and most important playing the objective
I agree. Heroes were a Star Wars Battlefront thing. And cool as they are I feel they don’t have much in the way of a place for a battlefield game. Picks and power ups would make the game even less realistic. And while it’d be cool to be a guy with a flamethrower. If it’s some sort of invincible hero then I’d rather it not be in this game.
As a history nerd I was so pumped when I saw the trailer. So yes I am excited to explore this era. I would rather have a game where the technology is limited and you have to use some planning and strategy around the limit of your weapons. Too many spray and pray people are upset, but that’s fine, they have had there way for the last five games.
They will have their way with this one as well. It’s unfortunate but there will be plenty of spraying and praying. Just look at what the Dice people have said about prototype weapons. Then see what mods and other have stated about ensuring “balance” in classes and ensuring the game is “fun”.
Sorry to break it to you, but it’s not going to be what a majority or players want. It will most likely be entertaining but not what most expect.
Less is more these days,
I was a huge fan of Call of Duty on it’s old days
I’d like to see a game which doesn’t include too much stuff in it and still pay the standard 50-60€ price what Battlefield titles have had on release
In BF4, I use FLIR optics, Mortars, Claymores, XM25 Airburts, UCAV, etc., (I don’t even touch stinger/igla/javelin though) and I’m so happy that this kind of rubbish can’t possibly be in BF1, because I hate them - I just use them because I play to win and they’re damn effective in Rush. The same goes with thermal optics in vehicles and Staff shells…
BC1&2 were modern games and didn’t have any of that rubbish, so, IMHO, less is more in BF games.
in before flame thrower UP/OP threads? like in rising storm.
there will always be these kind of threads if it has multiplayer, and forums for the game 
by that i more or less mean how will they balance it? its expected to be devastating, but if it is, every one will rush it because unblanced. Unless of course it lasts for 6 seconds and you have to have a buddy with an ammo box.
Dude its not that people are crying about the game that they don’t like it, it wil change ? 
Start telling things they should “try” to implement in the game!
I totally get what you’re saying but my point was that some people are just asking or wanting some ridiculous things that have no purpose being in a WW1 shooter. I have no problem with opinions and ideas obviously, everyone is entitled to their own. But some things just don’t belong lol
