how accurate will battlefield 1 be, /k/?
>>30455054
>>30455054
The only thing accurate about the game are the Indian soldiers.
>>30455054
Why the fuck does pvt. Poo in streets have a set of crutches?
>>30455066
Why should he go to /pol/? BF1 takes place in Europe not colonial africa so most of those(excluding the Sikh) are inaccurate
>>30455054
Are there even bolt action rifles in this game? Why are minorities so over represented in this game?
>>30455054
Truthfully they are the greatest men and women of our time creating video games worthy of the Pope's very entertainment. They are just amazing! The things they've accomplished are simply unfathomable for others.
Boy if I could only meet them, I'd rip my cock off and give it to them, the only way I could ever repay that fine company.
Yes, more accurate than anyone can foresee.
>>30455054
It's going to be a lot of fun.
But it'll never be as accurate as you would like it to be. If you want to enjoy it, you'll have to accept that. Otherwise you'll pitch a fit and be let down.
>>30455054
Absolutely inaccurate; gamers today demand COD paced gameplay. You'll see SMG's, assault rifles, machine guns, etc. everywhere.
HOWEVER, I'd wager there will be game types/modes that allow you to limit it to bolt action rifles for a more realistic feel.
>>30455111
>Bolt action
Yes, there is a sniper class.
>>30455134
but not for regular rifleman? pfft
>>30455054
It will be a 100% faithful reproduction of the gameplay you've had in every single other battlefield game.
The game will be cancerously bad. Not because of the brown people, I don't give a shit about that, but because it will literally be BF4 with a WW1 skin.
YOU DON'T EVEN GET SUPPLIED WITH FUCKING BOLTS HOLY CANCER
Play Verdun instead. I haven't even played BF1 yet and it already gives me cancer.
>>30455054
It'll be fun but not realistic or accurate at all. In the gameplay videos the tanks are doing like 20mph and everyone is running around with machine guns
>>30455240
It's been a reskin since bad company 2 man. They even used the same maps from 3 in 4.
>>30455155
>Rifleman
You mean assault class? Why would he use a sniper rifle? :^)
>>30455262
This. It's "Alternate History" so it's pretty much going to feel like a WW2 shooter with a WW1 skin.
Nothing wrong with that, but don't complain about historical inaccuracy because it was never a focus.
>>30455271
>They even used the same maps from 3 in 4.
Thaat's not a fair criticism, the community wanted those maps to come back, so DICE brought them back.
>>30455240
RO2 is basically the only FPS i play, since release. I've been excited for Verdun, but actually didn't like it. It's a bit too slow for me. It's WW1, yes, but i imagined it to be more like RO2. It just doesn't feel good. I'm reinstalling it from time to time to see if i find my entrance, but i never really start to enjoy it.
I hate how over-encumbered everyone is. Your average infantry would have webbing and a pack, but these niggas all have more fucking bandoleers that a background character from star wars. Judging by the prevalence of pistols, they all officers too.
>>30455271
Because people like them. Wake Island is in since BF1942, and i still love it.
What dice needs to do is another WW2 BF, btw. I'd buy that. Last one i really enjoyed playing was BF3.
>>30455307
Yeah, I have like 300 hours in RO2.
RO2 and Squad are the only 2 FPS's I play right now.
I didn't like Verdun at first either, but after the updates it is a lot better. I just wish that Verdun had a little bit more tactics involved (flanking etc.)
>Watching some gameplay video's
>Everyone and their dog running around with fucking submachine guns, bolt rifles are basically non-existent
Even RO2 is a more accurate depiction of WW1 and that doesn't even take place in WW1
>>30455323
DESU, I wish Call of Duty would go back to WWII.
>>30455288
>it's "alternate history"
No, for the millionth fucking time, it's not. There are lots of bolt actions, but for balance reasons, simi-autos and SMGs are in the game.
It's a AAA fps. You HAVE to have balance over everything else, it's just the way it works.
In ARMA and RO and Verdun, it's okay to have guns that are objectively better than other guns, because that's real life, and the people that play those a games are adults who understand this. The people that play Battlefield are not, and don't, therefore the game is designed to value balance over maneuver warfare and tactics.
>>30455054
It's probably going to be shit in general judging by DICE/EA's recent track record. I'm more excited about Rising Storm Vietnam; there hasn't been a good Vietnam War shooter in a long time.
>>30455383
BFBC2: Vietnam was pretty dank.
>>30455240
I can safely say we all know what your favorite word is.
>>30455400
lacked a shitton of weapons, though.
(besides the gameplay in the RO series being better than in the Battlefield series) I hope that Rising Storm Vietnam will have more weapons. Some cool ones like the MAT-49 and the Mosin-Nagant are already confirmed.
Hope they will add the DP-28, Vz. 58 and the MAS 36.
>>30455383
Yeah last good one i played was the first shellshock
>>30455430
I'm Dutch, so it's practically genetical.
>>30455436
It did lack guns, but the gameplay was super fun.
Strafing Russian shitboxes and gooks armed with PPSHs with rocket launchers mounted to a Huey blaring Ride of the Valkyries is literally the coolest thing ever.
I felt like Martin Sheen from Apocolypse Now.
>>30455111
Because it's 2016
>>30455054

>>30455204

>>30455563
>lever nugget

>>30455120
You pay for full auto with increased recoil and more shots to kill, and recoil has been increased across the board. Battlefield has longer sightlines than CoD, so strong precision semi/bolt/pump weapons will definitely be useful, and will probably require half the shots to kill of any automatic weapon if they don't go full retard on the balance. It should be fine. I don't expect the game to be dominated by stuff like MP40s and StG-44s like World at War was.
Of course this is EA we're talking about, so there's a good chance they'll fuck up.
>>30455054

>>30455561

>>30455379
>thinking any battlefield game is going to be well balanced
Nope, just like the past few games there will be a couple of guns that have better stats than the others, or have some attachment configuration that makes them completely broken. The other guns will just be fluff and rarely used.
>>30455592
Winchester made a bunch of 1895s for the Russians, chambered in 7.62x54r and even accepting Mosin stripper clips, essentially designed to be a lever action Mosin-Nagant.
>>30455643
Didn't bother with 4 or Hardline but 3 was fairly balanced. There were a couple of guns that had slight advantages in each category, but I can't think of any that weren't at least viable.

>>30455371
I was hoping for Korea myself, you'd get the best of both worlds of 'WWII' while exploring an obscure video game war. The minorities and automatic weapons wouldn't be so out of place either.

nigga i can't fucking wait for it, i expect rising storm vietnam to be the best fps of 2016. RO2 in Vietnam, how the fuck will this not be the best fucking shooter of the year.

Gets me every time.
I honestly dont see what's so appealing about WWI. No cool guns, except for some sniper rifles. So few games that actually did the modern era well, MoH series was close, same with BF.
>>30455561
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, what the actual fuck is Dice thinking, are they just doing this to fuck with people or generate publicity? Or do you guys think they actually think putting in black germans like this is representative of anything resembling the continental Europe WW1?
>>30455240
Agreeing with this, this is going to be cancerous kanker-game;a re-skin of BF-4. Aside from the fact that I'm not really into WW1 (fuck me right?) Dice made no real attempt at totally revamping its balance and making it bolt action centric only along with some truly gruesome CQC-stuff; instead it seems to be a "WE WUZ KANGZ" BF4 re-skin with some new mechanics thrown in.

>>30455087
Indians were famous in WWI for being stretcher bearers and medics.
For some reason, DICE made crutches the symbol for the medic class in the game.
>>30456585
You mean the over-dramatized and mostly fictional atmosphere that has been continuously repeated ad-nauseum until the truth was covered by this post-apocalyptic circlejerk fantasy concocted by edgelords.
Seriously guys, just look at the video that was linked, it's a deliberate reframing of a war that wasn't this "hell on earth" portrayal that you want to believe it is.
>>30456575

It won't be accurate at all because it's a video game. You probably won't find a lot AAA games that care about realism or authenticity.
Them just letting every soldier run around with experimental weapons no one used in the war says it all I think.

Those are french troops. German schutztruppen, composed of askaris, only fought in the african theater (and certainly not with that kind of uniform).
That being said, I don't give a rat ass about the skin color as long as we have options for glorious 1910 'staches.
The coupe-coupe/sabre d'abattis will make for a nice melee weapon.
>>30457253

I really hope that your ability to survive is dependent on how skilled you are at finding adequate cover in the cratered landscape of no-mans-land when the artillery comes in, and getting your gas mask on fast enough when the gas shells *plop*. I suspect it will be a carbon copy of previous battlefield games with a WWI skin and pay no attention to period depictions of warfare.

![tirailleurs[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/nTXQ6C4.jpg "tirailleurs[1].jpg")
>>30457314
It's a machette that was standard equipment for Tirailleurs Senegalais (Senegalese SKirmisheres) from 1916 onwards. Often called "modele Annamite" (Annam pattern, Viet-Nam).
Its primary use is to cut bushes (the soldiers are equipped with bayonets for close quarter) but it was really effective in melee, and was used extensively in that role.
As with many french weapons of the era, production was made in various small shops instead of being mass-produced in a single place. As a result many variants exist.
Yours should have a stamp on the blade with the manufacturer and the year on it.
The Tirailleurs Senegalais were a type of shock troops drawn from every corner of the AOF (Central Africa). They had quite a reputation in both the french and the german army.
Anecdotes off the top of my head:
Some came fromcomplete warrior cultures and took ears from their ennemies. The practice has probably been overblown by german propaganda and rumor-mill, but there's more than a couple of verified occurences.
A tirailleur was the mascot of the breakfast powder Banania (chocolate & banana). saying "Y'a bon" (Dat's good) on the boxes while eating a spoonful.
A lot of US troops in 1918 were surprised by the cohesion between white and black french soldiers, that was completely different compared to the american regiments.

Wanna get even angrier?
They changed Conquest, the game mode Battlefield is known for, into COD's Domination game mode.
Instead of each team having a set number of tickets which tick down when someone respawns, or when the other team holds more capture points, the teams have to build points by holding objectives. No more tickets, so there's no penalty to being a spastic retard running headlong into machine gun fire.

I want this so much.
Also to everyone bitching about everything in this thread, the game is in ALPHA. The big stuff like lever nuggets, the semi auto and full auto firearms, they are bringing those out first to hopefully hash out any issues. They have bolt action rifles down fine, the differences only lying in rate of fire, mag size and damage, which is simple programming from their stand point.
While the game may not be as historically accurate as we like, im actually confidant that we will actually see a wide variety of period firearms represented in the game, along with, if not dedicated period bolt action only firearm servers, then we will deffinately see private servers as such.
As for what all the players will use in the game, unfortunatly there will emerge a loadout that is the easiest and cheesiest to use, as in all fps games, and the majority will gravitate towards that loadout.

WW1 is such an ignored war in movies and video games and it's such a shame to see the one AAA title completely shit on its history in the name of forced diversity.
>>30461165
Also, as far as I can tell
>No Canadians
Despite the fact that WW1 was literally a nation building event for Canadians, and the fact that the Canadian Expeditionary Force sort of had a very significant impact on the outcome of the war and development of adapting to and overcoming trench warfare. But no, apparently it's more important to feature black Australians instead.

This picture only shows 4 of the 6 classes, the Engineer is white and the Pilot class is white.
>>30461830
I hope you're correct. But even then it feels insulting that they care more about portraying black German soldiers on the western front than they do the entire Canadian Expeditionary Force. Especially since this was one of the few wars that Canada actually played a huge role, arguably even more so than the US did.

Why
>>30461930
It's also a fact that the British Empire intentionally refused to use non-white colonial troops on the Western Front. While the French did make use of colonial troops on the Western Front, they didn't use them as anything other than cannon fodder. Meanwhile German colonial troops were virtually non-existent on the Western Front.
If you want to have non-white colonial troops outside of the Western Front, that's fine. In fact I even support that decision because there some interesting things happening on the other fronts in WW1.

There's an online petition. You guys can dign it if you want to get major players that brings a lot of unusual equipment to the table and in the case of France really used colonial troops in the western front instead of blacked germans.

The problem isn't necessarily that they are in game, its that they are being incorrectly pushed out in masse. If DICE had the colors by the numbers and had you set to spawn in from a random race roll sheet, I'd care less. It would be interesting to get that 1-2% non white roll from time to time. Or to see maps change out what units you are and what you look like.
Instead they decided to rewrite history with a PC filter and add in every single color they could think of alongside female units because muh diversity.

That way people can play who they want and its not forced "natural diversity" and it will be mostly white males playing so it will be more accurate unless they add wemon. There was few wemon that fought but it was like 10 and they passed them selfs off as guys to get in.

I repeat, this is the Character customization screen.
This is the screen where you choose your loadout and character appearance. The person deliberately chose to make all their classes non-white just to fuck with you idiots.
When you play, it will mostly be white characters running around, just like any MMO or other online game where the player gets to choose.

I think the issue is more that they apparently didn't have enough time to add the french or the russians, but still put some developers on adding such varied customization.
That, and the fact that they push it at every occasion. On the box cover, when they say that it was a key goal,...
I have nothing but scorn for people that spend their time congratulating themselves.
Seriously, nobody gave a shit when The Boss participated in operation Overlord in Metal Gear, because the game was well done and they did go all "See how progressive we are? Buy a game that supports women *wink wink*.

There's also relevant thematic reasons for The Boss having a connection to important stages of WWII and the post-war climate which followed. Peace Walker poured it on pretty goddamned thick by expanding her involvement even more, but you can still argue it was important for developing Big Boss and the world he was fighting in. Whereas this is a bungled attempt at teaching via injecting diversity into rooty tooty point and shooty deathmatches. Cobbling together a Bedouin character because they didn't want to make another Vasili wouldn't bother me much if this were a different type of game, but multiplayer is what will get this sold, not the campaign. So in the end they may not do justice to the lesser known forces anyway.

and literally any other race, an asian, an american indian, a fucking eskimo, even a transgender otherkin
But they have to go full on all black/ non-white, it's a form of racism but the left doesn't allow it to be seen as that, remember that diversity=white genocide
What also bums me out is that i really want to buy this game, but I also really want to boycott it for re-writing history and disrespecting all the lives that were lost, also i dont want to support the marxists that made the game.
Do you know what I would be completely fine with? If you could choose your race. I wouldnt care at all, black, white, asian, go further, southern white, eastern white, american black, european black, blacks from different areas of africa, capoids, every type of asian, north korean, south korean, let people play who they want to be in Multiplayer, just change the face and the color of the hands in first person.
Hell I wouldn't even care about the apparel, If a white guy had to wear that turban to be a medic, so be it, if an asian had to have stretched lip disks and a bone in his nose to play as support, I'm fine with that.
Just let the player play as the race that they want to be. If it's so wrong to force blacks to play as whites, then it is just as wrong to force whites to play as blacks, especially when the game is historical and about a war where 99% of the combatants were white, and many many people died.

Don't you dare discredit the Boss. Just misinterpreting her wishes causes multiple end of the world situations.
>>30463055
From what I've seen, the classes have been adapted for the WWI vibe
The assault class doesn't have long range assault rifles, they have shotguns, and SMG's, the smg's are a stretch, but i'd rather have them in the game than not, plus they are, from what we've seen, specifically short-mid range guns
The LMG's can overheat, adding some flavor to that aspect of the game
Bolt actions are not only snipers like other games, they have both iron sights and scopes, and if you use a scope you can also use iron sights, so you are not limited to long range, they also have a damage sweet spot at short to medium range where they kill in one shot, so this can be used to make the rifle viable in close range, in reality bolt actions seem to be very versatile in this game.
The "assault rifles" are semi auto, and some have auto modes that fire very slow, so they aren't like ar-15's or ak's, more like DMR's from other games
Most guns have low ammo count, and reloading works different because of clips, it will be interesting, but fuck the swede developers
>>30463179
Ya, you know shit's bad when even normies are taking notice of it.
TWO black classes? Come on...
This is a great opportunity for them to just come out with soldier face customization anyways. I hate seeing clones, it's just annoying.
