Hi guys, as we all know in World War 1 there were no helicopters. What is going to do DICE with this typical vehicle in this game? I’ve been playing as a helicopter pilot since Bad Company 2 and i’m very concerned about this topic. It would be a huge disappointment for many of us. Thanks for your comments. Best regards, ---

BF1942 only had 1 heli that was introduced in the Secret weapons of WWII expansion. The base game didn’t have them … drum roll … because the war didn’t have them. You will with 99.999999% surety not see a helicopter in this game. ---

The World War 1 had horses??? As far as I know the answer is no. No one was riding horses with knives in Europe at that time, in order to fight during the war. Nevertheless the game will have horses ---

Look up the “Battle of Cambrai”. Infantry, Cavalry and Tanks amongst other weaponry. The British had roughly 437 tanks at that battle. ---

You can answer your own question by asking, “Were there helicopters in WW1?”. The answer to that is your answer ---

What are you expecting Dice to do? Add in fictitious rotor-craft just so you have something to do? Or maybe you are expecting them to just drop the game altogether, anyway that ship has sailed and you are going to have to live with that. ---

They have taken alot of ideas from the game Codename Eagle which is like almost their first game. In that game they have a basic helicopter (Ugly as hell though!). I think they will leave helis out of the game as we already have Zeppelins and Airplanes. ---

I think they will leave helis out of the game as we already have Zeppelins and Airplanes. Codename Eagle was set in an alternate timeline tho. BF1 is set in the WW1 that we’ve known and studied about. ---

Also, how do you even get this beautiful quote box instead of this ugly one? ☹ ---

Divisions of Cavalry were in that battle. And it was in France 1917. ---

Horses where used at the start when trench had not yet been built. [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/helicopter-in-battlefield-1/100875.md?page=2)
