Sure, lets get hyped for capitalism! Fuck off.
>>340251963
That looks so dumb.
Another trailer, another assload of anachronistic shit because DICE refuses to spend 30 minutes actually researching WWI.
In this teaser alone:
-The Black Soldier (American/British, who knows at this point) is wearing a WWII British Mk IV Respirator. On top of that, it's not hooked up to anything. There's no hose, and no canister, it's useless.
-Both the American/Brit, and the German firing the Bergmann MG15 are wearing a WWII German patch for the rank of Oberschütze. This patch didn't exist in WWI. So with this teaser, it's been shown that EVERY soldier, of EVERY NATIONALITY SHOWN SO FAR, is wearing the same future patch on their shoulder.
If patches are part of the Squad system, why is the default patch a WWII German patch?
-The black soldier, who I am assuming is supposed to be American, is wearing a British uniform. While America and Britain wore similar uniform, the American uniform had a standing collar, while the British had a more usual fold-over collar. The black guy has the British fold-over collar.
I could go on, like the WWII rifle shown in a previous image, and so on, but DICE's allergic aversion to researching anything is comical at this point.

Well this board is done.
>>340252635
That's every game for every genre
So
to remain somewhat optimistic, what battles/landscapes do you want in the game?
I'm hoping for Galipoli, Brusilov offensive, Russian Revolution, and Flanders maps.
I actually carried a belt-fed machine gun around for a year in Afghanistan. And a dude coming at you with a trench club while you are looking at a 6-7 second reload isn't that fun to think about. That said, I don't think any machine guns from WW1 were just hip fired like OP's gif
>>340253336
It REALLY doesnt matter. BF3 still looked amazing, so did BF4 and hardline. Also starwars battlefront lacks content, but is debateably the best looking FPS to date.
>>340253603
I honestly want some stuff in the Arabic Revolt, so that I can ride a horse around the desert shooting people.
>>340253581
I'll bite.
DICE trailers are almost always what the game looks like in game, at least on PC.
Go look at the Battlefield 3, 4 and Battlefront trailers. The "gameplay" trailers are very close to the actual game.
One of the few things you can't get on them for.
>>340253581
Battlefront looked like its "in game footage"
>>340251963

>>340253029
its ok when its DICE
>>340253627
They weren't. Also, that guy would not have come out of that trench at that guy. They would have had a firing line with cross fire, and he probably would have switched to an alternate weapon if he were alone and that guy was running at him while he was out of ammo.
Popping out of a trench was just a terrible idea if you didn't have to.
>>340252801

Galipoli and vimy ridge are what I want most, im hoping if there is any form of commander mode that the commander can do a creeping barrage.
>>340253603
Gallipoli has been sort of half-confirmed.
People who attended the press event claimed to see a beach raid, and the recently released concept art shows this:

You're complaining that a game is set in a war. I'm pretty sure I read this perfectly fine.
>>340253603
Why does it matter? Literally none of those locations will be represented in a realistic or even Hollywood fudged reality way. It would just be generic locations with a title card slapped over the top.

Rewatch the trailer, it actually says "not actual in game footage" and this gif looks exactly the same as the trailer so its most likely not actual in game footage.
>>340253952
A black guy is fine, if you either make him a soldier of America's 369th, a French Senegalese soldier, or a German colonial conscript (Schutztruppe)
The Bedouin woman thing is pretty out there, and I would have originally been willing to know what their research was on it, but seeing as they put a WWII rifle into a recent press photo they clearly haven't done any.
(Image clarification, the M1903 and M1903 Mk I were the rifles that were used and around for WWI. The M1903A3, with the distinctive aperture sight, was not)

>>340254407
When you say Enfield, do you mean Lee Enfield?
If so, no, the Americans were never issued Lee Enfields.
They were however, issued M1917 Enfields (pictured), and M1903 Springfields, with the Enfield being America's main service rifle, going by the amount issued.
The M1917 was made by the British under contract from America, and is based on the Mauser action. It has nothing in common with the Lee Enfield, beyond name.
>>340254618
not him but ww1 was pretty colourful
Gallipoli was a two-fronted beach landing with Australians used as cannon-foddr, landing under gunfire, then trying to fortify the beach. The aim was to give the British and French forces time to organize themselves on the point, but it was a big cock-up and they all died or went home.
The Brusilov offensive was just pure chaos, a very mobile, large-scale assault by the Russians against the Austrians.
Russian Revolution was a myriad of different battlefields and different conditions.
Flanders is what you would think of when you say the words "trench foot"
>>340254618
not necessarily
Trench warfare was a mainstay, but battles were fought all over the continent.
you have to take weather, terrain, forces, and many other factors into it
Gallipoli is basically a smaller Normandy beach landing in the desert
Ypres, especially the third battle, is a swamp with constant rain that floods
Verdun is a hilly landsape
you have some Navel battles, like Jutland, too
technology and strategy also develop through the war as well.
>>340251963
I found battlefield 3 and 4 completely atrocious ever since they refused to listen to feedback in the bf3 beta and even shut down a community who was being vocal about their change of direction.
I would love to enjoy this because there aren't that many WW1 games and Verdun is pretty much dead but i just don't trust modern Dice anymore.

Worst thing that might happen is that they will make a battlefront reskin.
>>340256626
it's not minor, this is a WWI game

YOLO Juliet at least sort of makes sense because stupid hormonal teenagers is a big theme of the original.

>>340256626
>minor inaccuracies.
Dice is a studio in Sweden, Swedish fucks (despite their /pol/ reputation) are gun fetishists and should know their shit, extra points for being European and all.
The fact they are on board with this, and the recent ME2 failure makes me believe that whoever was in charge of running Bioware to the fucking ground is now in charge of Dice. Ea is run by tv executives apparently.

>battleniggers in the great white war

>>340256540
It's historical nitpicking. The average person doesn't know the M1917 Enfield even exists, so the word "Enfield" calls to mind the famous British Lee Enfield. I'm not ashamed of my history autism.
>>340256575
I'd love one, and even though WWI guns tend to go for less than WWII ones, they are still pricey. Bound to get even pricier.
>>340256626
Why not? Why can't I point out when a company puts shit from the future in a very defined historical setting?
I wouldn't mind if they said this was an alt history game, but they've gone out of their way to dispel that claim and are saying it's accurate.
If you're going to say it's accurate, then your shit's up for scrutiny.

If they fuck up the gun design, it's their own doing at this point
Also
>These six categories are shotguns, SMGs, LMGs, semi autos, sidearms and sniper rifles – pretty familiar stuff for most FPS players, despite the relatively unexplored setting. Each of these classes include multiple varieties of weapon, including some of the first successful assault rifles ever made.
>Weapons can be customised with up to three pre-set loadouts, rather than attachments. You’ll also be able to tweak zoom levels, reticles and more – and apply skins.
I like to think I'm /k/nowledgeable but I'm about 95% certain that there wasn't a single assault rifle on the front in WW1.
>>340256884
>dont you think things like this were added for gameplay reasons?
Not him, but you are an absolute retard.
When the FUCK have video game guns ever been realistic, especially in a fucking Ea game, you mongoloid.
It is a gun model too, shit stain, that means it can shoot lasers too, because the gun model does not represent the gun functions, because of fucking coding and shit.

The people who are getting pissed off ITT are not "history fags". They are high school pocket-historians who don't fucking know what they're talking about.
When someone gets mad about hip-firing machine guns, just laugh at them. It's like a big flashing casino sign that says "I DONT ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT".
Machine Guns could be and were hip-fired in world war 1. From the notes of Paddy Griffith's "Battle Tactics of the Western Front: The British Army's Art of Attack, 1916-18", pg. 248:
"the manual makes it clear that firing from the hip is highly inaccurate and unduly exposes the firer to the enemy, and should only be used in special circumstances."
>hurr inaggurat
Not impossible.
In fact, World War 1 infantry soldiers on all sides were trained in "marching fire" using machine guns. Americans trained with the lewis gun specifically, as did Australians who used it in that way at the Battle of Hamel. The Germans eventually did the same with the 48-pound MG08/15. Source: Sheffield's 2007 "War on the Western Front", pg 250

I am the one saying the guns arent completely realistic and its stupid to think they would be
>>340257141
Their selling point is World war 1 in the whole package though, you would expect weapons uniforms locations regiments from that time period then.
Maybe I'm just spoiled with historical accuracy from other games but if they don't wanna go full armchair historian then maybe they should just announce it as WW1 inspired or alternative setting so they can get free reins when designing and balancing.

It's not. The image you posted is a fucking lamp, with a terribly uneducated description claiming it's WWI.
The gas mask the lamp uses is ALSO a Mk IV British gas mask, which was extremely common during WWII, for both Civilian and Military use.
You will not be able to find a single photo or actual source claiming it's from WWI, because it's not.
You can however find many pictures of it in use in WWII.
>>340257774
they did and you are right.
but honestly I dont care, i'd rather see BARs and people carrying machine guns around than having 90% of players use bolt action.

>>340257404
That is a sub-machine gun, not an assault rifle.
>>340257774

The vast majority of machine guns were too large to even move around by yourself
>>340257141
>no liberties can be taken for gameplay reasons?
If those "liberties" result in the game still playing like every fucking modern shooter then it's an issue. Even the fucking trailer is still that same orange and blue WUUUUUUUUUUB shit that the last three Battlefields have had.
Granted that I don't know a lot about WWI because the American school system is shit and this was one of the most glossed over topics because they wanted to get to the Great Depression as soon as they could, but it really seems like all the anachronisms are adding up and they're just so they don't alienate their idiot audience
>>340257774
SMG's existed late war, the Italians and Germans being the main two to use them.
LMG, as a term, did not exist. A distinction between heavy, light, or general purpose wasn't really around back in WWI, so any machine gun light enough to carry could be a "LMG".
Semi-auto's were rare things. The French had the most common semi-auto rifle of the war, the Fusil Automatique Modèle 1917, but being the most common of a rare weapon type isn't saying much.
Other semi-auto's existed, or were being prototyped, the Germans had one for aircraft/defense, but not infantry deployment for example.

I personally don't give a shit because I don't enjoy modern FPS games, I'm just saying that the trailer reactions from the normies who make up most of the sales for this game are "HURR DURR THIS IS NEW TERRITORY, CALL OF DUTY SUX" when it's really the same shit. They're in a position where anything they do to deviate from the "modern/near future" shooter would be well received, and yet the game is likely going to be the same shit with a new skin. It's a wasted opportunity, and droves of idiots are singing DICE's praises for serving up the same shit on a different plate

I don't think black soldiers in any war of the past 100 years faced as much asshurt about their existance as the guy on the cover you faggots keep crying about.

An assault rifle is a fully automatic selective-fire rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine.

Yeh, BF1942 was exactly what WWII was. BF vietnam was exactly what the vietnam war was. BF2 was exactly what modern warfare is.
Get your head up your ass, it's a fucking game.
>>340258095
This is the only thing I've seen so far that doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
There are accounts of middle eastern women fighting in World War 1, such as the Turkish women lone snipers killing ANZACs during the Gallipoli campaign - but they are uncorroborated and have nothing substantiating them. They are mostly anecdotal originating from rumor. Historians generally disregard these stories as it would have been severely against the cultural tradition of Turkey and the Bedouins alike. For the record, Aleks Grondal did say she was Bedouin.
There were, however, confirmed women fighting against the turkish genocide of the Armenians. DICE also had a chance to tell a real story about Gertrude Bell, CBE, spying for the British Empire, being an archaeologist of babylon, and hobnobbing with Winston Churchill, TE Lawrence, and various high-circle members of Iraq and the rest of the Levant.
tl;dr DICE is choosing to make a bullshit story, which is fine in my opinion, but I hope they have no illusions about some ass-kicking arab woman being real in world war 1.
>>340258064
This would be the most common and "finalized" type they issued during the war.
Early attempts range from cloth mouth rags that were tied around the mouth, and only worked when wet, or varying types of cloth "bags" with glass eye holes.
Gas masks saw rapid development in the war, and so getting military designation/names is a pain in the ass, sorry I can't provide one.

Then by these definitions, no, they weren't around.
I suspect that the original quote was misusing the term "assault rifle" unless they are putting in guns that didn't exist.
I know it's a game but I'll be a little mad if there is an STG44.
>>340259145
>Complain about WWII gas masks, rifles, patches, etc. being shown in a WWI game
>LOL DO YOU WANT TO JUST SIT IN A TRENCH?
The gameplay could be the exact same Battlefield shit, unchanged, for all I care. Complaining about historical accuracy in terms of weapons and gear that wouldn't have existed isn't a complaint of gameplay, as it doesn't affect gameplay. It's just DICE being lazy, and they deserve to get called out for that.
>>340258870
I think he means one weapon in the first trailer.

those are all for vehicles though, and they have ways to avoid them
you were seriously complaining about that?

Verdun literally came out last year.

>>340259432
Thats the issue I'm having. Really the whole way they're handling weaponry in the new Battlefield games is annoying.
Red Orchestra has it's problems but I'll be damned if it doesn't have one of the best class/weapon systems I've seen in any military shooter.
>>340257141
>no liberties can be taken for gameplay reasons?
What is the gameplay reason for this? Scrubs need iron sights on everything?
>>340255876
Hahaha what? WW1 had 11 million military casualties and roughly 7 million civilian casualties. WW2 had had an estimated 60-80 million. It's not even close.
Why the fuck a normies all over this shit?
Because shooters are "realistic" again?
Fucking hell.
>>340253862
there is a castle in gallipoli but its not that big. also during the assault castle wasnt attacked as far as i know. also it was pretty much dismantled with every available resourse at the front. pic related is the general plans of the war
>>340259202
Who should I e-mail? I legit could make a list, with sources and photographs, because this shit bugs me.
As for videos/youtube, afraid I have no experience in that whole... world.
>>340259854
the gun already has iron sights, this is a better sight.
likely as an unlock for more variety
>>340259145
this
the game never claimed to be historically accurate so who gives a fuck ?
>>340259939
believe it or not there are a large section of gamers who love the yearly military FPS.
however the new CoD is a futuristic Sci-fi game with a focus on spaceship travel.
the fact that battlefield is doubling down on the historical shooter is attractive to people who just want a military fps
>>340259681
Yeah is very good, but i recommend buy it when is on sale.
>>340260037
It's a better sight in real life, because it aids sight acquisition faster, but in a game where lining up the sights is automatically done with a button press, it's no longer "better", it's just "different".
And if a sight from 24 years in the future is unlockable, why not make the M1 Garand unlockable, it came out closer to WWI than the M1903A3 did.
>>340259681
I really enjoy Verdun. If you like unforgiving games like Red Orchestra 2, you'll like it. I find myself getting mad as fuck when I die running in no mans land towards a trench from a bolt action rifle a few hundred meters away, and then I realize that's probably what happened.
I love all the maps except for 1 or 2 that, I think, are just downright shit.
>>340260265
Thank
>>340260476
Also thank
>automatic weapons only
>only bolt action is probably the sniper rifle
Dropped like a hotpotato. Bolt Action Rifles can be in their own right satisfactory
>they want to glorify war again
>they want to depict as an experience where ordinary people became heroes
>they want to depict minorities and women as said heroes
On another note
>tanks going faster than 9mph
>people charging at each other across no mans land
>people ever charging at each other
>soldiers not fighting in attack and counter-attack, taking advantage of defensive positions
and finally
>dubstep version of white stripes
This fucking disgusts me.
>>340261176
It's honestly a deal-breaker for me, I'm disappointed.
What's the point of a WWI game where bolt-actions are barely there at all? They're honestly fun to use, in my opinion.
>>340251963
ahhh yeah another entire second worth of gameplay footage we did it bros
>>340259554
Hardly. Maps aren't designed with enough cover. if 1/6 of the enemy team has stingers, the attack helicopter cannot make a move. It can peak out of its spawn, take a few shots, and has to get to cover before two thousand missiles hit it, rendering it useless
Yes, I complain about that. It requires absolutely no skills whatsover to take out vehicles in BF3 and 4, yet you could counter them in previous titles, like in BF2, where you actually had to use a little bit of skill to use the ERYX or the SRAW. Fire and forget shit makes for really shitty gameplay. And before you go >muh vehicle whore, I mainly play infantry, and always have ever since I started playing battlefield 15 years ago.
>>340261247
Welcome to the Swedes version of WWI
The Swede did not fight n WWI nor in WWII, in fact the Swede has not fought a war since he early 1800's.
The Swede has no concept of the brutality and terror of WWI, especially so because it was the first war of its kind, some call WWI and WWII the same war with a long period of unsteady peace in between, whatever you call it, the Swede has no history to it.
The Swede is therefore not subtle about his approach to this Great War, the Swede- burdened by modern thinking and leftist schlock in his little Swedish mind instead twists and manipulates the facts of the war to suit that politically correct agenda of diversity and inclusionism wherever he can, yes shamelessly so even into a videogame about WWI, and all we can say to the Swede is, have you no shame?

No. Machine guns we're used in static positions. Any indecent to the contrary is the exception to the rule. And that's not history fags or pocket-historians saying that. That's the literal history.
>>340253336
>BF3 downgrade
There was no downgrade. DiCE always show their games running on the game engine.
>>340263249
I can sure as hell tell when someone goes too far in their little historical fantasy of WWI by throwing in diversity and modern ideas onto the war when they have no place being there.
Look to a Verdun for a game that does it right.
DICE is trying to bring over the modern BF3/4, COD Blops melee and intensity and mindset over to WWI and with a smattering of diversity to boot (when 95% of the participants in the Entente were white Europeans/Anglos) in order to appeal to the "new generation" or anyone who thinks WWI is boring because muh trench warfare and stalemates meme and it just comes off as incredibly insulting to the rest of us.
>>340261247
The dub step was the worst part of it.
>>340263585
>it just comes off as incredibly insulting to the rest of us.
Who are you trying to impress on this chinese frogposting and memes board?
>>340263427

I can already imagine the headlines, 3 years from now that is.
>>340263585
>it just comes off as incredibly insulting to the rest of us
Would you say it triggers you? Just call the game shit like it is then laugh about it.
>buying another shitty EA product
>supporting a tasteless shit factory that cranks out easy money magnets with no real substance
i'm not a fucking idiot
>>340254164
>it actually says "not actual in game footage"
No it doesn't, retard.
I just got a horrible idea of something modern, retarded DICE might do-
Trench warfare mode: INTENSE FAST PACED AND BLOODY CHARGE INTO THE OPOSSING TEAMS TRENCHES ACROSS NO MAN'S LAND
>its a trench, 100 meters of no mans land, and the other trench and cloistered into a box, no flanking routes, no other direction to attack but forward.
I wouldn't be surprised even, they mentioned their smallest maps yet, which for WWI probably means less space between and around ttenchrs to funnel gameplay artificially.
DICE seems to be all about being in control of YOUR experience lately, instead of letting the player have more control and more freedom, see the latest Battlefront for an example.
>>340261247
>people ever charging at each other
Oh there were quite a lot of charging alright, with bayonets too, they just didn't end well... ever...
http://www.turkeyswar.com/campaigns/gallipoli.html (just search for the term bayonet)
>>340263757
>>340263941
Its insulting to the veterans who fought and to those who studied and learned a little what hell they experienced when they fought to just shoehorn in diversity so blatantly and then give it subtle undertones of black vs. white with their full cover reveal when WWI was a war primarily of white against white, with any non-white and blacks either colonial troops or a single fucking infantry unit with vastly overrated and almost mythological combat history as questioning it would be racist.
Its just not just the diversity, but thats the most insulting.
>>340257587
Good response. If your shitposting here's a crisp (you). If not, You don't have to be libshitter to know that realistically war is awful.
>>340264017

>>340264375
Yes they declared it inhumane and worse than poisonous gas and flammenwerfer (which werfs flammen)
>>340264271
DICE always show their games running on the in game engine and always have.
Remember when nobody believed the Battlefront trailers weren't ingame footage as well and then got BTFO when the game was released?
>>340264375
right after they sent the lufthauser to Antarctica and set up the foundation of space nazis and dino-warriors.
>>340264501
remember how people shilling battlefront got BTFO now that no one plays that shit game?
I do
>>340264195
He's not saying bayonet charges didn't happen, but both sides did not charge each other across no man's land at the SAME time.
Why would they do that?
Imagine seeing the enemy going over the trench to charge you. Why get out of your trench to meet them? You have machine guns, and have cover. You don't BOTH charge.
>>340264429
Did they seriously have skulls on their hats?
