very realistic ww1 scene...
They should've taken note on Red Orchestra. Battelfield started going to shit since Bad Company. EA really turns good developers to bad ones in a blink of an eye.
Where are all the trenches though?
>>341013127
Is it just me getting old and grumpy or are moden MP FPS HUDs pure cancer?

Aside from the eleventy million markers on the screen it looks fine to me
>>341014170
i don't see the problem with it, you get every bit of information you need
>>341014170
It's really fucking annoying when you know the map already so the information turns irrelevant.
>>341013397

it's photoshopped
>>341014409
>>341014412
I mean stuff like the weaponslots, like you can't even walk 5 steps without fogetting that "2" is bound to pistol.
And the huge intrusive XP/level up popups which are placed in the most crucial place for aiming and spotting enemies.
Older games have a little list at the top right or left to tell you who you killed, this just seems a bit overkill.
>>341014813
maybe because it's the first time any of them have played it and many of the attendees were obviously inexperienced
FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THE GAMEPLAY SHOWN WAS PRE-ALPHA AND THE COMMENTATOR VOICE IS JUST A PLACE HOLDER :^)
>>341015257
Are all the niggers just placeholders too?
>>341015257
It's already been confirmed that there are multiple announcer voice packs that come with the game.
You have
>Femme (One in video)
>Male (Dunno what this one sounds like)
>Soldier (Dunno what this one sounds like)
I don't see the problem with the black player character. He can bayonet charge way faster than anyone else and he can hop right out of the trench really quickly.

it also proves how modern gamers are the pinnacle of human scum
just end it all
>>341017265

but it's okay for WW2, even though it was a larger conflict with more casualties?
Are you forced to play as a black?

>>341017265
>games based on real wars weren't made before the last years
You're retarded
>>341017265
i was thinking the same, there is something about ww1 thats very different than 2, for me its the fact that they didnt know what they signed up for, like verdun or the fact that they still used military tactics from times without automatic weapons and bombs, they rode freakin bikes to battle and just slapped on metal parts to cars and called them tanks, it was like cavemen fighting with modern equipment
i think ww1 brought greater horror to the soldiers that fought it than ww2
>>341014392
b-but it does have a minimap
Why didn't they make this an alternate history WW1 or something. The aesthetic is legitimately somewhat interesting, and if they stopped trying to act like it was in any way historically accurate it could be really cool.
>>341020918

What's that anon? That's not something the US, Britain or Italy fought in, clearly it can't have been important.
>>341021093
yes ofcourse i sound triggered because i am, otherwise i wouldnt be posting about this
still do you think that someone who fought in ww1 would look at this game and say that hed like to play it
>>341021238
I doubt they'd do it. Too much risk of it backfiring on exactly the people they'd want it to pander too.
>>341017265
nerve gas urself melodramatic cunt
Was the phonetics really that way in those times?
I just didn't expect to hear them say Butter, Dove, etc.
>>341021238
It'll probably be the only time in the game when the ANZACs aren't made up of 90% black dudes.

Try telling that to Poland or just about anyone on the Eastern front.
What you said was only really true for the first few years of the war. By the end of the war there had been a live and let live system in place for a while, there were recognizable tanks, and the Germans were using combined arms tactics with shock troops if they aimed to gain any ground. The people who were being recruited were very aware of what was going on at this point or at least that it wasn't going to be a quick war like they were used to.
It was a transitional period and you don't simply drop 400 years of military doctrine instantly, but by the end of the war they had made significant advances. There's no one left alive today who fought in that war, but I'm pretty sure they would've been more offended at being compared to cavemen just because of how they fought with unfamiliar weaponry than anything in this game.
>>341021847
>Dude should we allocate some of the budget to getting a black voice actor
>nah we modeled some hands it'll be good
>>341013943
They were never going to do trenches. We knew this from the start.
The whole reason there's been almost no WW1 games is because it turns out Trench warfare makes for really shitty gameplay.
>>341013943
hahahahahahahahaha
>>341010839
>stab someone
>AAAHHHHHHHHHH
lol
>>341014170
Youngfag here. Have to agree somewhat, especially since this is a WW1 game. Anons say its photoshopped, but still, games giving too much info takes away the fun, while too little can ruin the game.
Like everything, there is a happy medium.
>>341015748
He can't swim tho
The game looks reasonably fun, if a bit fast.
If I recall correctly even the tanks in 1942 were slower than these.
Why is the German/prussian soldier black? Sure there might been black soldiers in axis but really?
why not just make it bf1943 if you're not even gonna bother with actual ww1 battles
>>341022916
diversity
or hopefully your characters are customisable and all the people playing the game were black like snoop dog
>>341010839
>all these automatics/semi autos
It's a shame, the sound effects and visuals are better than I thought. But with all those autos, it really breaks any thought towards a WWI atmosphere.
Add the following loadouts and I'd have day 1'd it
>assault
Bolt actions with bayonet, or shotguns, or flamethrower
>support
MGs. Most can only be fired from a mount or prone
>medic
Pistols
>recon
Scoped rifle or option for carbine with no scope
It looks like Battlefront with a thin WW1 paint covering it.
>>341011294
>tanks
>planes
>guns
What the fuck are you talking about,
I would be more worried about that shitty announcer voice
>using the battlefront font
Lemme guess, no classes?
>>341023187
You do know those weapons were used in WWI? They are definitely overplaying the prevalence of automatic guns, but they were still in the war,
>>341013127
they literally only appear just as you spawn, so you instantly know where you want to go
>>341021278
everyone who fought in WW1 is dead you moron, last one died in 2011

>>341023369
This is a terrible excuse akin to making a WW2 game where every German soldier carries an Stg 44 and every German aircraft is a jet because, after all, "they were used in WW2! You can't say it doesn't fit!"

I'll give DICE credit, they always do a great job with sound effects and visuals. Those were the best aspects of Battlefront.
>>341024173
Looks pretty much like BF4/3 and those did great, even though I hate it
I doubt this will flop, there's no indication that it will
>>341024173
I'm just happy you can run semi-fast with your charge attack. Looks like some fun memeshit.

>>341023369
>couple thousand of smgs and semi autos were fielded
>im a war with millions of combatants
The amount of automatics in the gameplay we've seen is even too much for a WWII game.
I'm totally fine with planes being a little faster or tanks being a little more functional. I kinda want an arcadey WWI game where a syringe can bring a dude cut down by a hotchkiss back to life.
But the WWI paintjob isn't enough to not ruin the atmosphere where everyone is running around solo'ing with smgs. Why even make it WWI themed if you're not going to put any effort in making it remotely WWI.
I'm not asking for a simulator, I just want some semblance to the war Dice advertised it as.
>>341024561
Why not just play Rising Storm and yell BANZAIIIII?Oh wait, BF1 has no Japs because blacks stole all spotlight
>>341010839
Looks like fun too bad it stars a nigger otherwise i would have bought it.
>>341025397
>bf1942
>1/5 of the classes uses a rarer gun unique to the latter half of the war
>BF1
>4/4 classes use oddball, wacky rare prototypes
Yeah man, basically the same thing. Nevermind 1942 was far more vehicle focused so infantry weapons meant a whole lot less anyway.
I thought with the WW1 theme they were going to try something new but the gameplay looks exactly the same as the previous games
>>341025617
Japs are shit weeblord.
>>341025724
>It looks like fun but I'm not going to play it
>Denying yourself fun for no reason
You're basically making yourself into a fun-cuck
>>341025397
First battlefield was a wonder even existed but as I was reading reviews in Poland on it's release, jurnos actually complained for several paragraphs about inaccuracies in gameplay and design.
Mainly this shit and stuff like how Sherman was a mashup of random versions.
Still, now they have a massive budget and could improve their track record instead of grasping it like a crutch for criticism.
>>341025397
>You mean like BF1942
no, because BG1942 wasn't like that
>>341025617
do you not know the fucking difference WW1 and WW2?

>>341026173
>i-it's always been fantasy
Sure, battlefield has never been a simulator, but they used to make an effort to at least turn the era into a nice arcade approach to the setting.
This is just BF4 with WWI skin, why would you defend it?
>>341017265
mecha hitler would like a word with you
>>341026448
There was a realistic trench ww1 multiplayer shooter

I don't think anyone dares tell Snoop to put away the blunt.
>>341027025
I thought they had Terri and he actually looked like he could play.
On a totally unrelated note,how is the red orchestra 2's servers?Is the game dead?I have never played it before and I want to actually start playing it.
>>341027043
It's worrying that people's perception of history is shaped by shit like this. Makes you wonder what a WWI game like this is going to do.
Going to have Americans 5 years down the line acting surprised when people tell them the French fought in WWI.
Which factions are confirmed?
>>341026863
If you think that's effort, you're naive or a shill.
>>341027107
I meant in real life
The map is great and reminds me of some of the more spacious BF1942 levels.
However, none of the gunplay seems like WW1 to me.
Doesn't matter, I'd definitely like to try the beta.
Fun fact: the map of Saint-Quentin in which you'll play as a black British soldier was actually fought between frogs and kraut only
>>341026000
you do know that Japan existed during WW1 and they fought against Imperial germany right?
>>341013943
this is the one I don't get
>Let's make a WW1 game!
>Let's ignore how WW1 was fought!
Never really expected trench warfare, because that would be boring, but it's just kind of a shitty idea.
>>341024173
>fuck i need to run to cover
>HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>341023238
My thoughts exactly. But I hear that they are going to be different announcer voices you can get.

Only as the soon-to-be nazis.
>trench warfare meme
>>341027341
French did not fight in WWI
DICE man said so
Its a shame about the abundance of automatics but it was nothing removed from what I expected. I wonder if bolt actions are universal weapons like DMRs in BF4?
Zeppelins crashing into the map dynamically is a nice gimmick
>>341010839
>WW1

>>341027951
Yeah I know and I didn't expect much from this to begin with but I'm pissed off that there's nothing to define it as a WW1 shooter.
It's still going to be the same kids running around quickscoping, spamming grenades and generally playing it as a full-conversion mod to BF4.

Is this some sort of cyclical bait going on?
Autos and smgs were extremely rare for WWI.
And before you bring up the Stg44 in 1942, the Stg was at least mass produced towards the second half of the war. It also doesn't take the combined arms theme of WWII being on one class.
Everyone having autos and scopes in WWI is nowhere close to a WWI theme.

they were also fairly rare for WW2
no one is implying that BF1 is accurate, but the BF series has never been accurate so it's not an argument
>>341029098
sorry, meant ww1, sure you might have to pick and choose a bit from different nations, for example the germans had the relatively widely deployed mp18 and the french had a widely deployed semi automatic rifle, but really its all there, and by the end of the war which is what a game like this needs to be set during they werent wacky rare prototypes at all.
>>341028692
There were NO personal "automatic" weapons in WW1. Back then what they called an automatic was any weapon that was magazine or clip fed, aka you didn't load the bullets one at a time. But you still had to eject and load a new bullet for every shot. All automatic weapons were fortifications. They were huge, practically artillery, pieces that took multiple people to run. They were impossible to move and fire at the same time and moving them was hard work for a team of people.
The battlefield game is the first one were there is such a huge disconnect between reality and the game. In previous games they at least paid some historical accuracy (usually pretty good) but in this one it's all going out the window.

france was top tier ww1, they just went full retard in prep for WW2 and didnt finish the fucking Maginot line like they should of
>>341028670
No, it was a different kind of conflict and no one was prepared for blitzkrieg. The majority of British troops nearly got cut down to a man in Dunkirk and perhaps were even spared by the Germans hoping for armistice while they turn to the east.

Why are you such a pussy? I am not acting surprised, i want change.
Who acted surprised? No one. People are mad they get this shit, because its pure shit and garbage, not even the "setting" can help it much.
>>341029136
holy fuck you are delusional
can you please show me the BF game that requires you to shoot snipers supported?
what did they do?
>>341011887

It's been 200 years and Bernadotte's lackeys are STILL French bashers.
>>341027956
>scope on the side
Those rifles weren't made with any attachment in mind. Scopes had to be offset or else you wouldn't be able to load any more rounds.

Let this sink into you people. In an average modern fps you can be in the middle of scoreboard even if your play is absolutely retarded, this is what your opposition in an fps game is. Now doesn't that put a sour note on those times you were the top player and thought you did well.

Wow! This will look great on my Nvidia Founders Edition 1080™

>mp 18
>5000 produced in 1918
>french semi auto
>widely used
No, the mle 1917 had some trials but didn't get adopted until post war.
These weapons were extremely rare in the war.

Unedited gameplay footage. Gives a much better idea of what the game is like.

>tank literally cannot get stuck in anything
>in reality they bogged down in a few hundred meters because of heavy weight and absolutely shitty motors
So its going to be tanks just roll over everyone on enemy team game? Because that's exactly what would have happened if they wouldn't have broken down or gotten stuck all the time.
>>341029835
it was issued in small numbers
>>341011495
In the end all that means is that I'll be playing it almost exclusively with no weapon attachments.
>people will still be bitching about how "OP" they are in close range
All the more sweeter.
>t*rks and some random arabs are in the game

More like:
>all your troops are busy in Africa romancing monkeys
>the troops at home spend their time playing cards at the german border waiting for the germans to attack the wall
>germans go around that wall and attack France without defense
Sacrebleu! Mon Amure!

Not him but it is an argument
Dont pretend because you dont value it its not important. Its important to him and lots of other people have raised it as an issue too
>>341029528
What's the point of this picture?
I just want to point out that this game doesn't have french
it's like somebody does the Hiroshima bombing in Nairobi
AYOOOO
>>341030152
It honestly would've made more sense for DICE to copy the Walker Assault mode from Battlefront, and just have some Mark I's act as the walkers as they slowly blast their way across trenches.
>>341030369
then they shouldn't be playing the Battlefield series
>>341030337
>fucking americans are in too for some reason
Seriously?
>>341030152
the tanks are fast as fuck too, what's the point of making a WWI game if you're going to make everything feel and act like yet another modern day shooter
I hope Hitler is a playable character
Tell you what, the game can be the same old shit.
But if on Christmas day all matches are games of football, I'd buy it.
>>341028754
Verdun is fucking boring trash.
>Swedish devs bring diversity to WW1 game
Stay classy, Sweden.
>>341030719
More like Dice shouldn't advertise their "authenticity" for WWI while having barely any.
I'm really not getting the argument.
>older games slightly stretched weapon availability
>this one is allowed to go full wacky
It's EA and Dice. They deserve every ounce of flak.
>Make a WW2 game
>Put a WW1 coat of paint on it and call it a day
I'm not happy about anything I've seen so far.
Why not just make a fucking WW2 game?
>>341029528
i forgot to name it dead swede
forgive me anon
>>341029302
Not true, by the end of the war submachines had been developed and deployed by the germans(MP18) and the US had a very short deployment of BAR m1918 light machine guns(deliberately only deploying them extremely late in the war because they didn't want them to fall into enemy hands).
I have to give it to Dice it's looking great. I just wish they weren't owned by EA.

God damn she is getting strong. 360 noscopes soon.
