I just realized something.

In all the recent battlefields the soldiers use the NATO phonetic alphabet (alpha, beta, charlie, delta, echo, etc.) for calling out flag points and objectives. However the NATO alphabet wasn’t around until 1956. Since Battlefield 1 is set in WWI soldiers are gonna have to use Royal Navy terms instead:

Have fun capturing objective Apples and Butter everyone.

I’ll stick to calling them Apricot, Broccoli, and Cucumber.

I’m a rebel.

im destroy MCOM butter.

Reminds me of BFF’s and Neebs names for the flags.

NicE, gooD work m8! I hope DICE will include this into BF1!

Haha that would be awesome if they used those terms! :smiley:

out of question you pass this line. you will not get Apricot and the french quiche lorraine.

Lets go to Dracula shall we ?

Objective Butters confirmed.

Watch the video below. I only just started but I’ve already heard ‘Objective Duff’ and ‘Objective Butter’.

Nice work with this DICE!

Mmmmm…Duff.

Exactly! I’m always going to think of beer when she announces that objective. :smiley:

“Objective Apple” seems to be becoming a meme on YouTube and Reddit.

“Objective Butter”, I don’t know why I cant stop laughing at that one. :smiley:

We’ve lost Apples! WE’VE LOST APPLES!

This is going to be great. I really can not wait for Battlefield 1 Friends.

By the way, here are the British WWI phonetics.

Does Objective Apples have a Genius Bar?

Sniping is so easy, don’t need to hold your breath or rest your rifle on its bi-pod. Just stand straight holding the rifle and fire. You can sprint across the map and take a super accurate shot at any time. I love how by taking out the realism they just make it over powered.

Well, I won’t be surprised to see most of people from previous BF’s use the Alpha-Bravo-Charlie etc. form instead… for most of letters these are simply easier to pronounce.
