>How can a company put so little effort into research

Because they aren't trying to make a video game, they're trying to make money and push the black people vs. white people agenda, because if they didn't constantly shove that shit down our throats black kids who were born in the year 2000 wouldn't think they were poor oppressed little babbies and white people wouldn't constantly be full of guilt and willingness to give their money to the government to create more government jobs that help liberal arts majors with connections get paid more than either of us per year to sign people up for welfare, is why.

That is the saddest part. Instead of shoehorning a negro, use an Algerian, Indian or whatever. But no, that is not progressive enough.

Anything that is actually wrong is just them fucking up. They've gotten shit wrong in every other of their games anyway, so there's no reason to want a 100% historically accurate game from them anyway.

is there any game that does this? I always thought it would be appropriate, especially if your perspective shifts to another soldier who is looking at your previous character, half a second before he dies.
>This goes on for three hours with no save or checkpoints.
CoD 2 was my first WWII shooter. on my first playthrough (the second hardest difficulty) I got to Hill 400 and the game glitched somehow so that after killing the last mortar crew the checkpoint was not saved and the mission never progressed. there was no safe place to hide from both enemy fire and grenades. Germans would constantly respawn and flank from all sides. I would last a few minutes, die, and restart at the 2nd to last mortar crew. I'd last a few more minutes and die. last 15 minutes and die. last 30 minutes and die. last an hour with many many close calls, then die.
it wasn't until the next day I went to the library and checked gamefaqs.com and realized something was wrong.
even so that glitch gave me a greater respect for the fear, hopelessness, and futility that soldiers must have felt than any book, movie, or documentary had up until that point.
no one can go to war expecting to not die.

Dude, it's kinda cool. I've always thought the Harlem Hellfighters were a bunch of badasses, and I'm liking that they're pulling up a historically accurate yet obscure unit to depict in the game.

I'm glad it's not more "sekrit skwerril" Navy SEAL T1 Delta SAS vs Ragheads Against Patriotism that has been churned out incessantly for the last decade.

But the colonials aren't the Harlem Hellfighters. The Harlem Hellfighters have character and depth. Playing as some poor fucking Sepoy getting his shit stomped put by his white CO for having a Hindu tattoo visible is a lot less fun.

Plus, they're not saying "American = Black" they're saying SOME AMERICANS THAT FOUGHT IN WWI WERE BLACK. this is true. What the fuck is your problem? Seriously, it's like if you mention that "other" 40% of Americans you're somehow a "PC cuck."

In all seriousness, you really seem to be seeing shit that just isn't there. And this makes it appear that the blackness if what you actually have a problem with.

Just because the character is black doesn't mean they're pushing "American=black", or some sort of white vs. black agenda. Black people play video games, and like I prefer to play white males, they probably prefer to play black characters, and so including them as an option is logical. Same with female characters, even though that's a 1,000 times more inaccurate when it comes to the bedouin allowing women to fight.

I explicitly said they could/should be displayed you framing dipshit. And this so called leftist agenda was fringe stuff a few years ago. Gamergate woke up the chans. /pol/ is exposing everyone else. From the bella and the bulldogs cuckoldry to advertisements and things as black on white crime in relation to white on black crime and the media cover it gets. Remember zimmerman becoming whiter and not being a latino anymore and trayvon being 8 with a whitewashed skin. Gamergate exposed how interconnected these entities are and what characteristics they share.

This is why it annoys me and it enrages me and many others. It is belittling, demeaning and chypocritical while being incorrect to boot.
>>
>>30158340

>>
>>30158397

>>30158443

>>
>>30158463
They don't. Which is why that fellow who lied and said 'at least they got the [...] ballistics right' needed to be called out for it.
>>
>>30158443
There is no point in adding bullet drop if you're not exaggerating it, or you are ArmA. The ranges in which combat takes place are to short to where realistic bullet drop would be negligible. The reason they add it is to add a small skill factor into "long range" shooting, while also being able to boast to fudds about having realistic shooting mechanics, most who swallow that statement whole.
>>
>>30158524
Which points out another issue of maps being too damned small. Don't get me wrong, CQC can be super exciting and fun, but it loses the spark when it's the ONLY kind of combat you're seeing in a game. All of those terrifying, close moments should be balanced out by normal 200-300~ engagement ranges, and some that are 500-600, as well. There's no skill to long range shooting if you aren't shooting at long range, no shit.

So is OP complaining because he doesn't know that the M1903 was used in WW1 or is he complaining because the German took it away from the American?
>>
>>30158534
Problem is, looking at something on your monitor that is 100 meters away in the game, would only look like it was 30 meters away in real life. Can't shoot what you can't see, also long range battles are infinitely boring for the average gamer, who cannot possibly appreciate realistic combat, which cannot be heart pumping and arenaline filled unless you are actually there in real life. If you want to experience semi-realistic combat, play Squad, Project Reality, or ArmA.

This is a major problem, in this thread and others like it.
You're missing the actual point.

Its gamers that don't give a shit, ordinary gamers. Most people don't care if its an m1909A3, they don't care if the ballistics isn't perfect, they don't care if that guy second from the right at the back has a period correct belt buckle.

Games are marketed to the mass of gamers because otherwise they'd sell very little and that wouldn't make business sense.

You and other people like you should just get over it and accept that no big game companies are going to make the kind of autistically realistic game you're looking for.

Look to indy devs, mods or just do it yourself, otherwise stop bitching that a company that caters to the majority isn't catering to your specific niche wants.

The devs chose a slower muzzle velocity, but doesn't model bullets slowing down. Their reason is that modeling the bullet slowing down puts a lot more strain on the servers because it has to look up bullet velocity from a table for every round fired. Right now they just have a constant value.

How they "model" aerodynamics is by having different rates of bullet drop. Assault rifles have bullet drop at 9.8 m/s^2, guns that shoot non-spitzer bullets drop at 15 m/s^2, and a few sniper rifles have 4.9m/s^2 drop.

Completely missed the irony. You're supposed to lurk before posting. Come back when you're not a teenager that doesn't even pay their own 4G phone bill, friend. You'll have a better posting experience here.

>mainstream media doing anything 1/16 as risky with a non indy game by a large game company with the goal of making money, not art.
A WWI game where you played as a harlem hellfighter and get constantly shit on by fellow americans and treated with cautious, guarded courtesy by commonwealth and french troops while seeing the most boring, shitty, and terrible parts of the western front would actually be good. Especially if they made most of your black unit compatriots period correct shades of southern coon ignorant instead of the typical swj "every black person in a period piece is a well spoken rhodes scholar" trope. Instead we're going to get Red Tails the prequel: we wuz soldiers n sheeeet.
