Because waiting in a trench for 6 months trying to keep your feet from getting wet so they dont rot (trench foot ). then when you finally charge your mowed down within seconds would be boring as hell. You have to make it fun for the call of doody crowd only bolt action no scope rifles would get boring to even the most hardcore fans accept this and move on. ---

Love when people who obviously don’t know much about ww1 think it was only people sitting in trenches. Like they don’t even realize the Eastern front never went this route during the war or that there was actual fighting on the western front too aside from people in trenches. ---

The game would suck if it was comprised predominantly of BAs Fact ---

The amount of auto and semi-auto weapons is ok, as I believe on release BF1 will show more new bolt-actions than other weapon types. Bolt-action rifles just should be availiable to all classes and all classes should start with a couple of them before getting to auto and semi-auto. And they shouldn’t have sniper-level magnification optics. ---

obviously people who think they hate realism never player red orchestra -\_- its much better fun with bolt action rifles and one shot dead option than just running with brainless rampage and shot faster than think, people please just try red orchestra 2 for few hours then you will DEMAND that kind of gameplay on fantastic frostbite engine! ---

Played Socom for years. It was a one-life game and as a result had a much slower pace. Game was incredible but slow gameplay simply doesn’t fit this title. ---

One shot kill with slow movement sounds extremely campy and low skilled
