How the fuck can a game with an American protagonist take place during World War One? Is the campaign going to feature the Spring Offensive exclusively? At least make the protagonist Canadian for fuck's sake. What is the point of depicting the First World War from the perspective of a soldier who only experienced the absolute last days of the conflict?
>>
>>336776207
Because no one wants to spend most of a playthrough unjamming a marksmanship rifle waiting for a brit to die so you can take his weapon.
>>
>>336776207
Because an actual WW1 game wouldn't appeal to the dudebro retards and 12 year old kiddies that still buy Battlefield.
>>
>>336776207
They've stated that there will be a bunch of protagonists. One of them is the Bedouin chick from the trailer, another is a Black American dude. That's how they'll cover different battles in the campaign.
>>
>>336776207
There are seven protags, with different parts of the conflict. I hope we'll get at least german or french protags

>Early aircraft were little more than flying deathtraps, the dry wooden frames and spars of their crafts covered in fabric doped with a highly flammable stiffening agent. It’s difficult to imagine a more flammable pyre—and that’s even before the spark-spitting engine was added. Pilots controlled air speed in the early rotary engines by means of blip switch that turned off the engine for a second or two. When the engine was off, fuel kept pumping into the engine and collected unburned in the cowling. Such fuel exploded when a pilot took his thumb off the switch and turned the engine back on. Too heavy a thumb on the blip switch could bring disaster. Of course the greatest fire threat lay in the rounds fired from an enemy airship, which could easily set the main or auxiliary gas tank afire.

Perhaps man was not meant to fly through the heavens?

Firing a medium machine gun on the move isn't too bad as long as you can only hipfire it or something, just to stay thematic because I imagine a lot of players will be using bolt-action repeaters.

>>
>>336779684

There were more fronts than just the Western, and even there, not ALL of the fighting was the 'static' warfare exemplified by the trenches.

Here's just ONE example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Front_%28World_War_I%29

You stupid kids should really go read up on the actual conflict. WAYYYYYYYY more went on during those 4 years than people think.

Bruh. I am aware there were multiple fronts. I want trench warfare because it is not a kind of thing games typically explore. Ease off the trigger there, Sparky.

Every single fucking game involving war that also feels playing from the gun's perspective must be solely about how many heads you can pop off a loot pinata in the shortest tine span possible.

We miss out on Civil War themed games because we can't fathom a game with guns where you do anything but run to a pretty looking interactive shooting range and pop targets then rinse and repeat.

There were several attempted prototypes that tried to take established bolt-action guns and repurpose them for automatic fire.

The firearms development that went on during and after the war are arguably the most important years for the entire industry.

Those two statements were true, though. By the time Canada got into the war both Britain and Germany were relying on sending raw recruit conscripts to the frontline so you can bet the Germans were scared upon hearing that they were fighting against actually trained corps and not raw recruits.

In the days they fought, they weren't even considered humans by the men entrusted with guiding them through battle.

In the years that followed, they were overshadowed by the "Greatest Generation" and nobody cared about their sacrifices.

Decades later, nobody even wanted to learn about why they all died. They are less than statistics, they are merely stepping stones to WWII.

Today, they are finally erased from history. We think even less of them as people than their generals did as they ordered them to charge into the slaughter.

But in all seriousness, all this butthurt comes from the fact that the guy in the trailer shot a quick burst from the lewis gun in upright position because armchair historians in /v/ think that it is impossible because their femme wrists cant take it

Its not feasible at least, but it can be done

It's totally feasible to hip fire shoot a guy at those ranges. He's seriously less than 50 feet away, and the Lewis gun had a ROF just shy of 600 rounds a minute.

I've made hip fire shots on fucking rabbits that were that far away with a Ruger 10/22.

It's not just feasible, it's actually much easier to do than you think.

M240 fires 5,56, this shit fired fully-sized rifle ammunition.

You could fire it from hip at close ranges, but at more than few metres the recoil would fuck you up and you wouldn't hit anything.

Which is why it had Bipod and was fired from hip only by assault troops.

Uhhhh, no, the M240 fires 7.62x51 which is actually ballistically superior to the .303 British, which is what the Lewis fires.

The recoil impulse on both bullets is largely identical, and the Lewis being the far heavier gun, makes it actually more controllable on full auto fire.

Basically, everyone whining about OP's webm, including OP himself, are just flat fucking wrong in their complaints.
