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: [http://www.oocities.org/faskew/WW1/Glossary/GW-Phonetic.htm](http://www.oocities.org/faskew/WW1/Glossary/GW-Phonetic.htm) Have fun capturing objective Apples and Butter everyone. ---

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.
