Ithe looks like fun, but it's going to most certainly bring up misconceptions on WW1. I'm sad for the future.

Looks more like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

It looks exactly like Battlefront if it was more like Battlefield 4 but with nowhere near the capabilities. I can't imagine anyone having fun with this.

What the hell is that german semi-auto supposed to be?
>>
I fucking called it. This was just going to be a reskin, and they would dig up every obscure weapon and misuse it so that they could ensure that the reskin would have a great selection to choose from. Tank rifles became .50 BMG, mounted machine guns because automatic rifles, and semi-automatic rifles that had no role in the war are now everywhere, while bolt actions don't exist and somehow every grenade is capable of destroying the obscene amount of tanks rolling through the maps

I expected this and nothing else, and anyone that had an ounce of hope for this game deserves to be shot
>>
>>1288130
Which one?
>>
Why are they using all those outdated tanks in this WW2 shooter?
>>
>germans using french tanks
>brits using german guns
It can't be that hard to restrict weapons to either side, right?
Its not like any Battlefield prior to BF3 had nation specific arms.
>>
>WW1 without France

I know it's just the logical next step, but still...
>>
>>1288162
They could be picking guns up off the ground or stealing tanks. And to be fair most german tanks in real life were captured british ones
>>
>>1288148
The one from around the 10 minute mark
>>
>>1288183
But the footage showed them picking said weapons from the deployment menu.

Ah well thats silly. Although I suppose they needed to have an smg and the brits didnt have one at all in real life
>>
>>1288224
Germans using an experimental italian rifle that was never used in combat, brits armed with german smgs of which only 5000 were made before the end of the war. Germans wearing ww2 style stahlhelms rather than ww1 version. Madsen and lewis are assault rifles now?

Oh and germans using an american shotgun despite being violently morally opposed to shotguns as a weapon of war
>>

I guess they tried real hard at all 12 battles of the Isonzo River where they had their shit pushed in
>>

>all germans of ww1 are a hivemind
>>
>>1287878
They did lose half a million men though.
>>
>>1286777
Modern game design is such hot garbage.
>>
The planes, the zeps and the tanks are the only things that give it a WW1 feeling. It could pass as a WW2 game if you changed those three models.
>>
>>1287878
Different geography for maps. Which is why France is not in: they needed the US to be in game, and the only place for them was the western Front. Italy is a logical faction choice, the US aren't, but they are necessary for the game to sell.
>>
>>1289746
Feels negligible when contrasted with France's 1,7 million fallen.
>>
>>1289745
Germans had a standing order to shoot on sight anyone caught with a shotgun. I would be quite surprised if a single german soldier ever used one in combat during the war
>>
>>1289763
If they wanted mountainous terrain, they could easily have included Russia rather han Loltaly
>>
>>1289749
They tank and planes absolutly dont work like WW1 ones
They're WW2 vehicles in WW1 clothing
>>
>>1289934

Yeah, he had to dodge to miss that German tank going 60mph lol
>>
>>1287101
>No France

Ehh, assuming they keep it accurate the main character may as well be French.

>The US Army decided on 8 April 1918 to assign the unit to the French Army for the duration of the United States' participation in the war. The men were issued French weapons, helmets, and brown leather belts and pouches, although they continued to wear their U.S. uniforms.

You can't be serious. Russia was easily the worst during WW1. Italy actually managed to at least take land.

You could have just said Germans
>>
>>1289770

An order never actually put into practice.

Pretty much, late in the war Americans introduced the first true combat shotguns. They were brutally effective in close quarters.

Germans had no comparable weapon to deploy in large numbers and tried to get Americans to ban it. They didn't

An order that never existed more like.

Is this the one where you play a black guy? Legitimately like the aesthetic but the black guy fucking ruins it.

It'd be like if you had a game where you played a Zulu warrior and he was a fucking Aryan, so fucking dumb. What's the point in any historical aesthetic if we're going to have asian vikings and samoan Kings of England and shit? Fuck PC culture seriously.
>>
>>1290213
YOU SEE A JAP WITH A SWORD...

I think this would have been 100x times better if they just simply did a steampunk fantasy shooter only loosely inspired by WWI.

They could even have used totally fictional countries and they would have more freedom to add all sorts of strange weapons and vehicles.

>tfw there will never be another mainstream fps with gore like COD World at War

it's so silly and unsatisfying to see a fully intact body just fall to the ground after a grenade blows up at their feet. Needs more dismemberment and disembowelment.

Ahahahahahahaha fucking faggot they had hella colonies in Africa and were literal allies with the Ottomans much as youd like not to admit it. Back to /pol/
>>
>>1299118
No you idiots. Germans literally cant bring their Colonial Troops outside Africa.

Largely because
1) The English Navy
2) German Colonies like Togo and in the Nigeria literally surrendered within the first year of the war. Germans were compelled to bring them back. Using local soldiers.
