This is what will kill BF1 if the complainer about this subject get their way. This whole realism links everything to what the complainers want. Everything from wanting female classes, less automatic weps, long winded grinding systems to unlock weapons and the list goes on. Recently i came across LevelCaps video and i think i just received cancer from a tweeter post which he linked on the video.
This game is about entertainment, its all entertainment but when did Dice do everything historically accurate? when did dice become a history channel? I know this is WWI so it has to be accurate! right? but if you’ve played any WWI games. They are boring, slow paced and its all trenches. Miles upon miles upon trenches. So in the words of Spock, “Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.” Ill let figure out who is the few.
It would be neat to have a plethora of server side options tho. That way people and clans who rent servers could create games according to what they want to play.
Picking up this game on day one as long as it’s not as bad as BF4’s launch was. However I personally feel like this game is doing a job of being a WW1 game. There’s way to many weapons and vehicles that weren’t around at the time being added in for whatever reason. It looks like a great battlefield game, but if they were going this route anyway why not just go all out and make it an alternate history of ww1?
I’m glad that verdun is coming out on consoles soon to provide a (slightly) more accurate WW1 experience
Swear man, these random getting all butt hurt because a video game which is a break from reality and will no way ever be 100% like real world WW1spoil the greatness of the game. This is the same Battlefield franchise that allows you to launch a vehicle with explosives, use a expensive aircraft as a taxi and do a bunch of other that would not fly IRL.
Only thing I prefer DICE devs not doing, is catering to the Assault scrub who runs first into all kinds of fire thinking a AR will win the day.
Edit: Yo this new censor thing is new to me and already annoys me.
Need to learn more about ww1 then. The eastern front wasn’t trench warfare, it never went that way and the lines were constantly shifting and moving, it saw some huge battles throughout the war.
Most wwI games (LIke Verdun) ar efocusesd on one battle or specific area, and most tend to be on the western front.
Meanwhile they ignore completely the eastern front, the naval warfare, Africa, etc.
A lot of us understand battlefield isn’t “realistic” but a lot of things people are asking for aren’t for super realistic things rather more authentic feeling things, that make the game feel or play like its set in ww1 rather then having things that they added to the series in the later games, like the 3d spotting over enemies heads or the lack of France/Russia at release for mp , etc.
Hopefully they release a statement explaining this WWI is set in a different universe/timeline. I have another question. Is this game a filler seat like BFH/STBF till the proper BF releases or is this it?
Have you not played Verdun on pc? its fun for about 10mins - 1hour. Its nothing but trench warfare and that’s it. You run around in a linear map shooting ppl, then running through no mans land. Ok i get the feeling everyone is going off Verdun now. I am worried.
This is what ppl should be wary about. Giving the power to one class due to what AR it gets. Complain about this or ask question about how they have balanced each class/weps. BF4 was and still is all assault class. Its funny when everyone runs to you for ammo, most ppl die in the process, have a go at me in chat for not moving closer.
Levelcap literally just released a video talking about this and it’s worth a watch for people who are more interested in realism than balanced and fun gameplay
