Battlefield I

[ArgonV 2]

Howdy gents, any of you guys see the new gameplay trailers for the Battlefield I game coming out? I for one am happy to see this. I'm tired of the modern warfare crap, and look forward to this game exposing a generation of gamers to the grit and bye-gone era of WWI tech and area of operations.

I watched the trailer. they are pulling every known semi auto and full  auto experimental  from the time period. and this is battlefield there is no grit to cause the actual unreliability problems these weapons would have

Ugghhh I feared that...

Like Call of Duty (mainly Black Ops) before them, they are going the "stretch" (more like pound out) reality to make things appeals to millennials.

 

I got that sense when I heard "dubstep" and "trap" (crap to my ears) in all the promo videos instead of era music.

 

Consumer: "Hey, that weapon was not around till the 1980s, World War I started in 1914"

Developer (EA): "They had drawn up the blueprints decades before and we are only introducing the prototype in this series."

Consumer: "I don't remember the Flying Circus using jet monoplanes"

Developer: "We have to make sure that all things from that period are covered in game."

Consumer: "Yeah but Whittle and Ohain..."

Developer: "Listen, just be happy with all the jump cut scenes and electro music, you are lucky we let you PC-users even play this."

Most of the autos I saw where Lewis mgs, the BAR and the Chauchat.

 

The action also seemed a bit more toned down compared to BF3 or BF4.
