looks awesome to all people complaining here if they went realistic with bolt action and trenches and stuff it would be so boring..if you want something realistic go play verdun...battlefield's always aracdey even in future stuff you can choose any weapon that exists in their respective time period..its same here if the weapon existed player can choose whatever the hell they want,if we had realistic modern shooter it would be so boring shoot from the drones at your couch and just use standard issue m16 i mean lol wtf also there is bolt actions rifles who said that they aren't..????

we, at least i, am doubting BF1 not because it isn't historically accurate or what not.

there are many many things in WWI setting that DICE could've used to make a fun game mechanic and a fun arcade game that I have enjoyed immensely, true to BF3 and onward.

Two unique things that ive seen are Airship and Weather. You could've had the game set in any other date and these ideas would've still been possible. thus WWI stays as a marketing tool.

People in here...

''Yes lets spend probably millions on this game and design it for the only realistic crowd that probably is 30% of all the customers that could buy this game so they will be happy''

And now im probably gonna get called a fanboy for realizing that the world does not revolve around me and sometimes you gotta take what you get and be happy about it

I WAS SURE

NO RUSSIAN NO FRENCH

GG DICE

It's a good idea to not put the 2 nations that suffered the more casulaties in the war

Well, sales won't be good for BF1 in france and in russia

Fantastic. Less hackers.

edit: but seriously, its not going to make much difference for sales. People in France and Russia that like Battlefield were going to buy the game anyway, only sales they lose are potential BF newbies that had no interest until they thought their country would be in the game.

Verdun commemoration were not that long from now, Verdun and WW1 is very important for french people, All french gaming forums are getting crazy, mountains of salt are included and first thread about boycott are just poping up

The fact that there are french maps, french guns and equippement and tanks but not the faction, it's an insult for us to pay a 20E DLC to play our SOLDIERS (i insist on soldier because all the equippement is already in the game)

It's like if US faction was a DLC for a WW2 game (ok coh2 did it but it was soviet vs german themed)

No lock on missiles. No UCAV or motion sensors. No thermal sight tanks. Sure its safe to say BF1 would play similarly if it was a WW2 setting, but its silly to pretend its a reskin of BF3 and BF4.
