movements animation are unnatural and speed is too fast, it looks like they are looking towards cod to offer the same fast pace game.  
as a result, tanks look like toys cars, enemies toy soldiers

it looks so kiddy, so arcadey. not immersive at all. i don’t feel concerned by war in small scale model

Yeah the tanks and vehicles are going at some furious speeds compared to how fast they could go back in the days.

Currently its the same mass murder as in COD. Run, gun, die, repeat. Slow the game down. Let the people have the time to make better decisions. Should I engage this tank, when should I engage this tank, let the team work together to achieve certain objectives but then one has to give them time to plan their approach to these objectives.

I can understand gameplay wize, making a tank go 5 mph would make it a sitting duck. Gameplay \> realism.

Yeah that is true, that is where teamwork comes in. There needs to be soldiers protecting the tank from sneaky infantry. Have you watched Saving Private Ryan?

Given that there’s 3 guns on these tanks, all controlled independently, I don’t think it would hurt to reduce the speed slightly. Only a small amount.

Yeah. Battlefield has never been a realistic shooter. It’s not like Arma 2&3 for example.

There’s a difference between wanting balance in the game for gameplay reasons and wanting the game to replicate a war perfectly.

End of the day its a video game. They have to take certain creative liberties to make it fun to play. Yea, they could slow down the tanks for gameplay balancing reasons but not because “back in WW1 the tanks only moved at 5mph”.

Again, it is a war themed video game, not a war simulator.

I think you guys dont know what the hell youre talking about? The game looks tight, and will go a long way to capturing those traditional bf2 pc players who never really liked the lock on or fire and forget gameplay of BF3…

The machine guns look good at their range but have a good look at the Garrand, if that is anything like in BF 1943(xbl arcade) it may well be the best all round gun in the game. Being semi automatic if it can hold its own at all ranges will go a long way in my book. That “feel” from the Garrand in 1943 was unique and made that game, fingers crossed for BF1

I think youve got bigger problems with the insane splash damage, and more the better I say, last two BFs been too much armour not enough splash. This may have had something to do with the inclusion of other vehicle upgrades such as zoom or thermal optics which we wont be seeing in BF1. BOOOM! how it should be

Totally agree the weapons fire way too fast.

It doesn’t need to be realistic, but it also doesn’t need to play like every other recent Battlefied, since it’s set in WW1
