I also have an idea for the upcoming World War 1 Battlefield game. Now, before I start, I know that it is early to think about DLC’s but I think my idea deserves a chance, at least.
A Good Idea (In my Opinion) For a DLC In This Game Should Be Called: Into The Future, or Progressing The Fight.
It could have an interesting variation of maps seeing as that this DLC would be set in World War 2!
Here are my ideas for the maps that could be present in this DLC (without explanation):
Battle of Kursk (Which Could Provide Good Land And Aerial Warfare).
Operation Winterstorm /or/ Battle of Stalingrad (This would be a nice map with probably more of an urban environment, and some nice close quarters action for infantry which could still allow tanks to pass through also allowing it to be good for land warfare, etc. I don’t think Air Vehicles should be used on this map but it’s up to the developers).
D-Day /or/ Invasion of Normandy /or/ Operation Overlord (This Map Could Probably Provide Good Infantry, Land, Naval, and Aerial Warfare due to the types of environments on this map).
Operation Sea Lion /or/ Britain’s Final Stand /or/ Invasion of Britan /or/ The Battle To Save The War (I need ideas for this maps’ name). [This Map Could Probably Allow For Good Infantry Gameplay, in a decently urban environment with room for land vehicles, aerial vehicles, and possibly naval warfare as well].
Wow. A WW1 game. I just can’t support it. Too B O R I N G! Trench warfare, seriously? I wish you all luck for those of you who are going to buy this. I have a feeling that you’ll all still be playing BF4 before too long.

There’s cavalry charges, battleships, zeppelins, war trains and more. It’s not just the trench warfare. There’s tanks too, planes too and its a new genre as the only WW1 titles I know is BF1 and Verdun.

At the beginning of every online match that involves trenches they should during the games count down have the voice of the main commander shouting last words of encouragement with the soldiers close to each other like they did during there charges like from the movie gallipoli and then when the timer hits zero the commanders whistle blows followed by loud battle cry’s from the soldiers as they are leaving the trenches for like the first 20 ft then it fades into battle. That would be a good way to start every match.
I kind of hope there are some very mission like multiplayer modes. Like assaulting a war train, British and french charges with tank support against German entrenchmens with machine guns and mortars, Arab guerrilla attacks on ottoman outposts, fighters escorting bombers, and of course modes with more freedom for individual strategies like conquest.
I just see so much potential for seeing battlefields I’ve never seen done before and am so pumped This is going to be a battlefield game. I’ve wanted to see WWI FOR SO LONG. Can’t wait
I saw the battlepack bonus for buying the Deluxe Edition. Please, PLEASE do NOT put weapon and vehicle unlocks behind a random reward system. Just how unfun would it be to want a gun but have to keep rolling the dice to get it? The only things that should be in battlepacks are minor customization options and aesthetics, like weapon/vehicle paints. And something I’d really like to see is a wide variety of different iron sights to put on guns (though since it’s WWI, picatinny rails weren’t a thing, so I dunno if it’ll work in BF1).
maybe instead of using WWII maps why not just make fictitious battles or remasters of newer battlefield maps, as an example Operation Metro set in a WWI, with all the set and ascetics of the time period. Given it takes place in Paris France, and the metro was actually built and in use at that time. Obviously I would like the map to be larger and more open, with less choke points. Maybe even including with the streets above the metro itself, with old time horse carriages and early vehicles, I think that kind of thing would do very well.

I’d happily play this over the tons of games with automatic guns with RoFs of nearly 1000 rounds per minute that seem to have no recoil. That’s all we’ve had for years now, and I personally am a bit tired of it. When they added old school guns like the '03 Springfield to Hardline I found myself using them a lot, they just seem to call to me more. Different strokes and all.
I’m hoping they put something in along the lines of the Battle of Messines or the Lochnagar Mine. German and British troops building tunnel networks under enemy lines and placing massive explosive charges (447 Tons of explosives) along the trenches.
Some of the single mines placed in the Messines weighed in at 95,600 lbs (43,400 kilograms) down to 91,000 lb (41,000 kilograms) of Ammonal and Gun Cotton (Ammonal is pretty much a cheaper and easier to source form of TNT)
A language filter in a war game, about killing people, with blood and guts, AND strong language in the game itself? It will be rated M for mature (17+ years old). We don’t need a language filter.
Dang
