Why are you leaving out two of the most important nations involved in WW1? Just so you can sell some more DLC? Total lack of respect for the 3.600.000 French and Russian soldiers who lost their lives.
Yeah sure… You wont play 1000 hours of your favorite game just because your character’s clothes dont have a patch with a specific flag!
Dice has said that they felt France’s role in the war was so important, that they are going to dedicate an entire DLC on them.
No Buy = Bye
If they were any important to DICE, they would not have to be a DLC, which are an afterthought.
Last time I checked blood & wine wasn’t an afterthought, the old hunters certainly wasn’t an afterthought, the 3 crowns trilogy was better then the base game. DLC is only an after thought if the devs wish it to be.
Maybe their holding off to give us some epic france maps that wouldn’t have been possible to have ready before release. The games still to far away and we haven’t seen enough of it yet to make any real judgements
Or they would’ve made it free, since such an important part of the WW1 should be experienced by everyone.
To be fair, he didnt said anywhere that this is his favourit game and I think he can be understandable. IMHO, making France a DLC and not already having it and having no Russia (especially IF there is gonna be Eastern Front) is just absurd.
Afterthoughts do not have to be badly thought out. Blood and Wine IS an afterthought in the sense that the game was felt to be complete without it. It’s added content, else it would have been in the base game.
Things are only impossible before release if they plan for it to be so.
That’s just bus*, come on!!
Who really cares about factions? Just some cry babys out there, it makes absolutely no difference in game.
I already played 700h of BF4 and 99,99% of the time I dont even realise what faction I’m in.
It’s just a match of us against them, whatever are the cosmetics the character wears, no really, how could you care so much about such a stupid detail??
Don’t market a game as WW1 themed if it won’t respect the fundamentals, like who was involved at the core. BF4 did not have that problem, it’s premise was fictional.
The game cant cover ALL aspects of WW1, they already made huge analysis of the event, and are bringing in thousands of details to make the whole atmosphere which already looks amazing.
I wonder how old is someone who complains about X country not being available? Like 10 at most I guess?
We cant say for sure is it gonna be amazing or bad yet. Also, personally, doesnt seem like there is gonna thousands of details to me.
There’s too many factions to add all of them.
Even if they add 4 or 5 more with DLCs plenty of factions are still left out.
I won’t stoop so low as to go for personal attacks, @PauloGrego. I don’t need to. I actually have proper and properly fleshed out arguments.
I’m not asking for this to be represented or to feel personally involved. I’m neither French nor Russian. I’m a history enthusiast. If you can’t cover all aspects, which does makes sense, you can at least cover those angles that matter rather than factions like Italy that joined later and left before the end or the US which only joined for the last efforts. I’m talking about making sense of your basic setting.
Italy and the US make fine optional DLCs however.
The gameplay videos are there. Look at the clothes, buildings, vehicles, guns, it’s all there.
Ok sorry I was stupid because this discussion makes me mad, after all this is just a game, and I really think it’s going to be amazing.
It’s not a history class and doesnt need so much perfection and accuracy, but it must be fun and have consistent gameplay.
And I wonder the mental age of people who think age has anything to do with how somebody feels about historic facts.
I’m 35 btw. And i feel it takes something away from the game not having French and Russians available to play as right from the get go.
I have actually pre-ordered my Early Enlister Deluxe, mate. Don’t assume things about people. B)
I know it will be ‘good’. I think it could be better still, and that makes a difference.
In Star Wars game, we had Yan Solo, Luke, Lea, etc. For BF1 need France and Russia. Brief.
