I have mixed feelings about this

On one hand it is accurate to the time period, and honestly I dont think I'd want to shoot chicks in the face

On the other hand it sounds like they already made the assets/content and not including done content is pretty bullshit. I mean fuck it could be check box in the options menu for all I care, just dont remove it completely

I know that, but it just ended up making me sad that it's not in the game. First person shooters need more bosses that are more than just cinematic setpieces that you kill with a turret. Not that one would realistically expect giant spooks in BF, but still.

Good, now just do something about the EVERY SINGLE SOLDIER being black. At E3 from the game-play videos, it seemed like every single soldier was black, even the Germans who only let their black soldiers post in colonies.
>>
>>342676256
Exactly. The Germans did have blacks fighting for them, but they were used almost entirely in the colonies. I'm sure there were a handful who found their way onto the Western Front, but gameplay footage so far makes it look like half the German team will be black each time.

If we want to be realistic, it should be all or nothing (all white or all white per team) because of segregation.

And they should give us an African colony campaign because it's the most rad:

Games with bikini armor are almost always fantasy games that never claim to be realistic. BF1 is a game set during one of the most horrific events in human history, so seeing that setting be treated with with respect and not 'muh diversity!" should be expected.

Murica didn't even join til the very end portion of the war. Germans weren't even the main antagonists. Blacks were hardly around for the major battles. Talk about misrepresentation.

This game clearly isn't meant to be realistic or historically accurate.

With that in mind, it seems strange that they'd remove this one specific fantasy element. Maybe they felt it was just too jarring? I mean, there were hardly any blacks fighting in the situations they're depicted in - but they could have been, they're just as combat capable as whites(see Detroit, modern Africa) where as female frontline soldiers in such a physical war is a tad more unbelievable.
>>
I wish people would focus more on the fact that the games have barely any depth and are total rehashes instead of "muh SJWs". If you're honestly looking forward to this game you're the cancer killing the industry.

I don't see how including diversity is disrespectful since it doesn't actually have any sort of significant impact on the depiction of the historical events.

What's wrong shitlord? Just because women didn't do the most difficult, soul-crushing, terrifying, dirty, work that comprised the vast majority of the fighting during the war, doesn't mean we have a right to exclude them from being depicted doing it! We wouldn't want little children from it was only the privileged white-males that got to die for their country!

You clearly dont, since you actuallu belive video games are "grounded in reality". Its not a historical represention, and almost nothing about this game is accurate. Video games don't resemble reality in any sense, and if you want to complain about it then the skin color and genitals of the in game models should be the least of your worries

there are women only battalions in ww1. like the womens battalion used by russia. not sure if theres any from ww2, but women did fight in ww1, for sure. but people will always scream sjw if women are fighting in a war (even if they did historically) and people will scream gamergate if they get taken out. but bf isnt realistic at all so it shouldnt matter. they talk about maintaining its historical setting but by the end of ww1 the germans had only built 5 tanks. total.

Except the women squads were pretty much a failure and were just a morale project.

It's more sexist to use woman as carrots to get men to fight than to pretend they contributed in the front line.

I find it kind of disgusting how the majority or soldiers who died in the war are being ignored because they shared a skin color and gender with the soldiers that died next to them in service to their country.

of the 5 women's battalions, only 1 was ever deployed, and only 100 members of that battalion. They were stationed in an area where no conflict was expected, but still came under siege and were defeated.

No. It's removed Female Soldiers from the MULTIPLAYER. Because of BALANCE reasons due to hit boxes.

Turns out BF1 was going for realism after all! Female chars matter but "it's just not the game we're making".

And then they decided to go with something else once parts started falling into place. Rather than accept that as a part of every development cycle ever since the dawn of time, she said:

>I'll repeat what I said then, as unprofessional and rude as it is.
"Fuck you." BF was never realistic and will never be.

Nobody is getting their history lessons from Battle-fucking-field. It's Battlefield. I wonder if WW1 pilots jumped out of their planes to net headshots, then jump back into them in mid-air.

They didn't do those things. Because I read history books. And live in reality. I play fake, fun shit because games are meant to be fun, entertaining fake shit.

'Realism' is fine. Bitching about games being some kind of... historical archive for research and education (BATTLE-FUCKING FIELD???) is retarded. You guys are stretching super hard just to justify your fucking strong-crying about women and blacks being in a fucking WW1 in which the laws of physics won't even fucking adhere to anything possible in reality in the first place.

Also go fuck yourself. If the devs want to do a historical approach rather than ahistorical, then that is their decision to make.

>>342686205
It's actual a biological imperitive you feel uneasy about shooting woman in the face. In fact if you feel nothing you are chemically imbalanced. You may be self aware enough to know it is a video game. but the chemical process in your brain isn't

More people are mad about the focus of automatics in WW1 than they are about blacks being in the game.

There were black soldiers on both sides. Did they see use in the Western front? No, not really.

But all of the automatics the game has, (some of the semi autos have versions that are full autos as well) is fucking insane for a WW1 game and really, BF1 should be renamed Secret Weapons of World War 1


>>342689596
To an extent, yes, they should. History is a very important aspect of humanity, games like COD before 4 always had a sort of historical semblance in what happened during their games, and made sure to have historical ad visors help out

It kinda goes in the line of Saving Private Ryan

It is a great WW2 movie if you only watch the D-Day landing. But after that it goes full on fantasy in what happened during the event that took place (In reality, the protag was actually found a couple days after D-Day and escorted from his group back to England. Some of his buddies were so surprised by this they thought he had lost his will to fight or was scared by combat.)
>>
Daily reminder the Battleshit series has never aimed for being realistic. There's a reason why mods like Forgotten Hope and Project Reality exist.

1st of all) EA shills here all the time with stealth marketing threads

2) Reading just a few replies it is clear as day that there are many paid shills in this thread right now working for some sort of marketing company

The vast majority of all people playing games do not give that much of a crap about the making of a game. People just want to get their hands on the game. They don't critique every single detail of a game.

All of this "we are taking the women out" nonsense is just EA's clever marketing tactic of getting the word out more on Battlefield 1. Of course the majority of /v/ are a bunch of retarded losers anyways that got their asses literally gaped by former board owner Moot and his SJW crusaders during the days of GG.

Point is this shit is a non issue and nobody should care what SJW-EA does about anything. If anything Females in a shooter game are cheap since they would have smaller hitboxes.

I don't actually care too much about the tanks to be honest. I just mainly didn't want overpowered modern tanks. I've never played verdun so I'll have to check it out, thanks for the rec.

It's not even like women weren't important during the great wars. They often took over manual labor and other extremely valuable positions back home, as well as being nurses in or near the front lines. My grandpa (and my dad and therefore me) wouldn't be alive if a nurse didn't attend to him following his stay at a POW camp.

ok but movies are all about the narrative. some games can be educational, certainly, but fucking battlefield? really.

you guys are going to complain that battlefield isn't a historically accurate educational piece and that it not being educational/historically acurate is detrimental to children

>>342690125
Realistic =/= authentic

The problem that DICE is running into is that for the first time in a long time, their game is actually based in a past event that was highly documented. The stuff they did do, like put Jackhammers in BF2, really can't fly in BF1.
>>
>>342690023
They don't even like video games, they just want to ruin everything because it makes them feel better about their useless selves

I mean with what we have going right now with that game we might as well make that jump.

Honestly, i just want to mess a bit with Armored Trains because they fascinate me and thats that for me.
>>
>>342674790
Battlefield 1 is a ww2 shooter disguised as a ww1 shooter.

They tried to make germany seem like nazi's that hate niggers and jews but they forget ww1 had very little to do with racism or anything like that.

MW looked 100000x better honestly.

>>342690676
The problem with armored trains was that the tracks could be destroyed at both ends, essentially trapping an extremely valuable piece of machinery in enemy territory. The opposing force then wouldn't even have to fight it, just stay out of range and wait for the war to end.
>>
>>342689781
I would feel uneasy about shooting anyone in the face. This is a video game though and I feel nothing. I would gleefully blow a woman's head off with a trench gun or do one of those bayonet takedowns from the trailer. Its not real dude. Go outside and interact with real humans if you feel any sort of attachment or empathy for what is happening in your videogames.

As someone who has actually shot people in the face, at the moment you feel nothing much like a video game. Only difference is the nightmare don't ever really stop.
I've had to started wear a mouth guard in my sleep because whenever I have nightmare my teeth grind really hard.

I know

This is part of the reason i think they're fascinating.

I mean its just funny how all the BEHEMOTHS in this game(The Zeppelin, the Battleship and the Armored Train) are actually pretty inneficient. The armored trains less so as the Polish and the Soviet ran a pretty competent force with them, but we all know the failures of the Battleships and the Zeppelin Bombers at the end were only a mild incovenience for the british

Can you imagine if there was a game about the Black Panther and their campaigning during the 60's? We would be playing as a white man, obviously.

Because remember, because there's literally one person(minority) in an affiliation or event, that means that have to be represented as God!

I can't wait to fight as a straight white male for the freedom of blacks in America :)

We were pretty convinced that bigger = better during those decades. This even continued into WW2; the Germans built super heavy tanks that would sink into the mud 60%+ of the time.

Black people did fight in WW1 though

Why the fuck are you people throwing a bitchfit over a Battlefield game being historically inaccurate? Don't we have Arma for realism and accuracy? Why won't you go bother those autists instead of complaining that the newest entry in a series that's never been historically accurate isn't historically accurate?

>Black people did fight in WW1 though
Fought as in raped random people. Black people waited for White people to win fights so that they could go on uninterrupted rape rampages through every captured town. Theyve doning this in every single war theyve been included in since they were discovered.

ww1+ww2 examples:
