During the reveal live-stream, they played a much cleaner version of the 1942 theme. It's never been heard before.
That could be the new theme, seeing how electronic shit doesn't go with WW1.
They really should go back to orchestrator.
>>336958768
I not only expect it, but I desire it.
>>336959774
are you sure it wasn't just the 1943 theme?

I was actually listening to the 1943 theme just now.
It's completely different

Go to the part of the stream where the countdown reaches 14m10s
why did they bring out battlefield 2, 3 and 4 out first?

I don't get why people freak out. BF teasers have always had shit music.
Rihanna in BF4, some shitty crap for Hardline, etc.
It's at least shit you never hear in game, so that's fine.
>>336960845
It's mainly because there is a black man on the cover. They don't care about the music it's just /pol/tards getting triggered.

What's wrong with seven nation army?
>>336961105
its fucking techno music in a trailer for a game in 1914
>>336961105
Nothing wrong with the music, the problem is that it doesn't fit in a world war 1 video game.
>>336961013

Man, all those WWI history buffs just shoving the black men in my face all the time.
Oh... wait.

I think you should look over the song name, lyrics, and how it can be applied to WW1 before shitposting.

>>336961071
I fucking hope that that is going to be featured in the actual game, would be a waste to create a version like that for just one presentation.
>>336961071
Okay that actually sounds pretty fucking nice.
As a huge Tolkien fan who was inspired to learn more about WWI, I think this finally made me realize just how tasteless these kind of games are. It's peak cultural cynicism. It's the fruit of postmodern philosophy and its quest to destroy reverence.
WWI was probably one of the most brutal, inhumane conflicts in the history of our species. It marked a turning point for our civilization. It began the industrialization and mechanization of slaughter. Unimaginable numbers of young men lost their lives in the mud and blood and terror of that war.
And here we are "recreating" it for fun and amusement as dubstep blares in the background. It's absolutely insane. Make whatever game you like, play whatever game you like. I'll defend your right to do that till I die. But at least realize how absurd this all is.
I think they're taking it in the wrong direction totally. They're making a game about a terrifying dirty war and the best they could come up with is some remixed white stripes song

Still good, but fits WWII better. I'd prefer something with more empire'y feel, like Red Baron 1 OST or old marches:

I bet you don't even know about Lettow-Verbeck's army. I bet you didnt even heard the name, poltard.
>>336962040
It's sad to think how many lives have been lost due to games glorifying them. There was a big influx during MW1/2 time, and many would be classed as kids, too young to have the responsibility of drinking. It might be dumb as fuck, but it's still kind of sad that they'll fuck up their futures.

>>336961203
Because it's disingenuous. They aren't doing it because they're genuinely interested in stories of the war that we don't often hear, they're doing it because tokenism sells to the new games media.
I say this as a person of color.
>>336961801
Boohoo people are making a game out of a terrible conflict. All videogames about conflicts are fucking tasteless. What do you want, Spec Ops: The Line: World War 1? Because Spec ops is the only game I can think of that tried to be super srs about the "horrors of war" and guess what? THAT GAME SUCKED ASS.

>>336962270
It's not a new concept.
Glorifying war was a big thing before WW1. It was something that was romanticised.
>>336962297
It's alright, anon. I'm not a mouthbreathing poltard, so I knew it wasn't meant for me.

That happened DURING the war too. British soldiers on leave would be harassed if they weren't wearing shit to show their "support" for the war.

Entire school classes would join up after graduation and walk of to war with big parades, they'd put them all in the same brigade. Then they'd all be dead after one charge over the top.
>>336962941
Good job anon, I didn't expect to hear some Gorecki. Good taste.
Pretty fitting considering who the real heroes of the war were.

>>336963834
Well that's quite different before the war people thought war was this glorious and gentlemanly thing, when they started losing millions of man in mere months they realized it wasn't so glorious and gentlemanly but they had to advertise it as such so they could get more volunteer after while people realized what was happening so they started doing shit like the order of the white feather and after a while that stopped working and they had to introduce conscription.

>>336958701
How about the original fucking battlefield theme? With extra trumpets and occasional drum snares to replicate the eras war time chants and cadences, instead of dub step bullshit.
>>336969038
this
the music was so stupid and almost made the trailer look like a joke. especially with that woman on horseback trying very hard to look intense. actually the whole thing felt like it was trying way too hard to look cool. because of the music and a few other elements it just came to feel like a kid whisper yelling.
>>336958701
Someone edit the trailer with the original battlefield theme!
>>336958768
They've already used it for the BF:BC2 Vietnam DLC.
>>336969038
I'm praying they only chose SNA because of trailer hype, and that they add an oldschool trumpet theme that reflects the era
>>336962040
True
>>336958701
I liked it, White Stripes are always good even when being tainted by dubstep
>Watching coverage/reactions of the trailer
>Like 3/4th of people dont even know its WWI
>Some people were even like "LOL WHAT IS THIS STEAMPUNK?!"
This is American education at its worst.
Expect Jazz music when playing as one of the Hellfighters since a few of them played it when they weren't in the trenches. I think this game will be good desu.
>While on night sentry duty, May 15, 1918, Johnson and a fellow Soldier, Pvt. Needham Roberts, received a surprise attack by a German raiding party consisting of at least 12 soldiers.
>While under intense enemy fire and despite receiving significant wounds, Johnson mounted a brave retaliation resulting in several enemy casualties. When his fellow Soldier was badly wounded, Johnson prevented him from being taken prisoner by German forces.
>Johnson exposed himself to grave danger by advancing from his position to engage an enemy soldier in hand-to-hand combat. Wielding only a knife and being seriously wounded, Johnson continued fighting, took his Bolo knife and stabbed it through an enemy soldier's head.
He better be the black guy on the cover. All the Main protagonist better be soldiers who did shit like this. I know there's more.
>>336973404
Its going to made up because those particular soldiers barely did shit. It'll be a fantasy character that single handedly saved the world jumping between blimps with TNT and shit.

>>336972809
To be fair, world war 1 was the closest we will ever get to "steam punk". The differing technological levels of nations along with the insane levels of creativity, disturbing ways exterminate fellow man, the inventions and innovations, were all truly astonishing. It is a bit of a wonder how a cluster fuck of a war happened at all.
>>336958701
I really liked it. It fit the part with the Zeppelin rather well.
>>336973673
>Its going to made up because those particular soldiers barely did shit.
They stayed in the trenches longer than any American other platoon.
>>336973954
Damn I swapped my words.
Will we get to play this?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Belleau_Wood
>>336973954
I mean absolutely, not relatively. Theres not enough action to support a BF storyline in WWI without them making things up. It has to have cuhrazy action and explosions and parkour.
>>336961203
Man, all those big budget WW1 video games with European protags. Too many of those, we need something different.
Oh... wait.

They made alot of money so in a way it is big budget.
Is anyone here old enough to remember a Half Life 1 mod called The Trenches
it was great for the time with manual bolt actions, grenader classes and club whacking.
>>336975139
That has nothing to do with the production budget you retarded mong

>To be fair, world war 1 was the closest we will ever get to "steam punk"
If anything, WW1 would be the end of a hypothetical steampunk period, just like how all the 19th century stuff like cavalry got smashed out of common use
>>336969038
Interesting thing about this image is that it's actually an illustration of the world in a novel called Leviathan. It's a WW1 steampunk novel where the Central Powers use war machines while the Entente Powers use genetically engineered creatures. That's why Germany and Austro-Hungary are grey and metallic with machines on them while Russia and its allies are all sorts of weird creatures.
>>336975238
Fuck, I kinda remember it as a some kind of discount day of defeat, not much apart from that
>>336975881
Poland still attacked tanks on horses in ww2
>>336959169
was going to post this, good job
>>336972809
Honestly I can't blame them, the game will probably be a little more toned down but the entire aesthetic of the trailer seemed like sort of crazy fantasy-steroids version of WW1.

>The incident was not unlike other reported occasions where Polish cavalry, rather than surrendering, attempted to break through the encircling German forces giving Guderian’s troops the impression that the Poles were attacking the tanks rather than trying to dash between them.
Literally nazi propaganda, and even then, I mentioned 'common use'
