Yes, it looks like COD with a bunch of cheesy mechanics.  
The fortifications will only help boosters as well.

I am hoping the Krag-Jørgensen rifle is in the game.

The only thing stopping this from being a COD clone is the cheese and vehicles. I’m done with the franchise for the foreseeable future I think, I really dont like the direction its going in.

Is it me or medic guns can OHK on headshot? Check 28:15 on Lana Garai video, where it looks like she gets one-shotted by a medic with a Gewehr 43

2 hits. First hit got her down to 61HP.

I still don’t see that 61 - it still looks like a ohk. I’ve watched it frame by frame and its a insta-frame kill…

I know, it’s hard to see but it’s not one shot kill. I think she’s been shot by 2 guys at the same time. Gewehr can’t shoot that fast. 😉 You can see 61 health appearing at the bottom just before she dies.

Ok, I can’t get that 61 frame to show up lol… must be some weird youtube settings. I was having a minor panic that SLRs will OHK on headshot… that would be insane.

Here. Couldn’t get rid the line below but you can still see the hit and HP.

Ah, man, I see why we were seeing different things - I meant a minute later at 28:15

I actually believe this is indeed a true one hit kill with a medic gun… holy crap!

Oh, sorry about that. Yeah it does look like it unless she got shot by 2 again in the exact same moment. 😃

I’m sure I’ll get hate for this, but I just can’t get hyped for this game. The half hearted WWII vibe just kills it for me. If you’re going to do WWII go all in. This half and half with the characters looking like they belong in Bad Company 3 just doesn’t do it for me. Maybe it’s petty to pass on a game because of how it looks, but that’s what I’m doing none the less.

I’m still on the fence…There’s a lot of good stuff, but they only need to make a single big mistake with the gameplay to really ruin a lot of potential fun.
