If the files from the alpha are to be believed, though, they've already made some boneheaded choices on guns.

Look man, very few people would play "Verdun rendered in Frostbite with destruction". Having some of the period prototypes in the fold is par for the course for BF. All of the modern setting BF games have the MP412 REX, the XM8, the AEK-971 and a bunch of other prototype/ limited production shit being available to every rank and file soldier. Why should BF1 be any different?

I mean boneheaded as in "Why didn't this gun make the cut?"

Now, the list is incomplete, but it's missing some very notable firearms.

Hopefully by release we'll have a better idea of their weapons coverage. Ever since BF3 Dice have been doing the whole "We'll just put all the guns in the game." thing and I hope they don't intend to stop.

Who gives a shit if not all of WW1 was fought in trenches!!! It's what the majority of students in the world are taught anyways so they could have at least made some massive (golmud railway and firestorm size) trench maps. Instead we're stuck with this The St. Quentin Scar (and a few other similar looking maps) bullshit with a small tidbit of trenches in the fucking corner of the map.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zBQGY_p4QM
I seriously wanted to start out matches like this, each side fucking colliding with one another with little to no cover, balls to wall rushing with fucking bolt actions, 1911's and bayonets. Guess we're never getting it because DICE decided to copy & paste bf4 with a few tweaks here & there. So much for finally getting a modern day fps with an old setting...

I fucking know that, but the ratio of white to black/Indians are fucking insane for a western front map. The Sikhs are understandable but having 20 to 4 black soldiers ON BOTH sides seems rather excessive, even from a "diversity" standpoint it's taking it too far.

Due to the low number of classes, they can only make so many soldier models. Since there'll undoubtedly be maps in North Africa, the Middle East, they probably decided making it like a 50/50 split was okay.
And really, no one will care, even if it is just DICE being lazy as fuck.

Hit the nail on the head. It we be a game set in WW1, but it will be the same scramble and spray corner and cover shooter dominated by automatics, and it will feel exactly like bf4 after the novelty wears off.

I think gunning in a biplane will be fun though.

Games aren't necessarily supposed to emulate the real world, though. I didn't get angry when AC3's DLC represented George Washington as a madman with a device that gave him infinite power. I didn't get mad that I had to kill him on top of a pyramid.

It is what it is.

>You will never storm Peking and humiliate Qing China to protect your Christian missionaries from the Boxers
Why even live?

Fun fact: the Boxers may have had western weapons like Mausers and such, but they didn't know how to use them. They mistook the sights on their rifles for some sort of power selection. They thought that setting the sights for the maximum settings, like 1000 yards, made the guns stronger, which made it so Boxers shot right over the heads of the western soldiers.
>>

As we get closer to release, I'm hoping these massive oversights will be rectified.

I actually like how Battlefield games play, so I I'm looking forward to it. I don't know why people expected it to be a realistic game, despite the fact that battlefield has never been realistic in both gameplay and accurate depiction of setting.

Also, if they have to make a rush map similar to metro. that shit is basically trench warfare.

That's actually one thing I don't like about it. It feels rather out of place. Should have just made it so commands were shouted from some rando off screen in a tone appropriate to the situation you're in.

No, will still have that classic retard layout that DICE is famous for since BF3.

>one point near each deployment that is almost never taken away from the team that it's near
>all points clustered in the middle or near the middle within walking distance

That's pretty much how all of DICE's maps work. Fucking obnoxiously retarded.

>see someone first

This is like reading Tolkien and expecting medieval arms and armor to be 100% realistic. It's fantasy based upon some real setting and real equipment but nothing more. I don't get why people are so upset. If anything it, like Tolkien and LOTR, will turn people on to the real history and they'll educate themselves. Expecting some authentic game from that time period to resonate and be popular enough with their target demographics to warrant an AAA budget is silly and would be bad business.

Half the people sperging out about it are the same ones I see repeating WW1 memes about gas being deadly and ultra effective, or believing trench conditions were like movie depictions 100% of the time, or sharing that stupid war neurosis film with the fake depictions of shell shock.

If you want an ultra realistic game donate to kickstarters cause that's they only way they're going to get published.

Is it as mechanically realistic as the original Day of Defeat?
>>
>>30784564
I feel bad to say it but I haven't played the original day of defeat, so I don't know.

CP and EP both have a line of like, 3 trenches, they attack eachother, if they succeed in capturing a trench they have to hold off a counter attack, if counter attack fails, they move onto next trench. If counter attack succeeds, the counterattackers have to hold off against the enemies counter attack.

So no bullshit where you capture an enemy trench at the back of the map allowing your entire team to spawn there
>>
>>30784689
If an attack fails then the attackers have to retreat back to their trench and defend it.

All the different squads have their own abilities and methods of spawning.
Recon squads spawn have their members spawn on the most forward member of the squad and can call in recon planes.

Assault squads spawn on markers that the squad leader places and can call in gas

Standard squads like the British spawn on their NCO and call in light mortar barrages.

Defensive squads spawn on squad members in their own territory and call in a single heavy mortar round

Weapons vary according to squads. Assault squads will have pistols, SMGs, and grenades. There's one class in the assault squads that run around with a club/spade with 4 or 5 grenades.
Defensive squads can have MGs and snipers, etc

It's pretty noice
>>
>>30784689

Original DOD was the first FPS I played with realistic gun mechanics like recoil, spread, which had a learning curve for each weapon.

Even compared to modern FPS's that tend to be rock, paper, scissors with short, mid, longer-range weapons and standard recoil.

You must not have played ROOST or played RO2 at launch.

RO2 was broken for over a year before it was even playable. And now it is still a casual version of what ROOST was, but at least it is playable.

I really hope for a good, realistic ww2 game some time soon.

Not making a new thread for this so:
How does Verdun compare with RO2? I get the impression that multiplayer gameplay is similar, just less fluid

>s fought in trenches!!! It's what the majority of students in the world are taught anyways so they could have at least made some massive (golmud railway and firestorm size) trench maps. Instead we're stuck with this The St. Quentin Scar (and a few other similar looking maps) bullshit with a small tidbit of trenches in the fucking corner of the map.

Just play verdun on max settings you massive faggot and leave the new battlefield game for the 13 year olds and Normies with IQ under 90
>>
>>30785448
battlefield games can still be fun. They arent going for a realistic game. Look at battlefield 1942. It was pretty much the same. Germans using brittish weapons, a bunch of non-standard weapons.

At least the shooting mechanics have a decently fun representation of bullet drop and lead time, which Red Orchestra 2 doesnt even have.
>>
>>30782404
Slight irony that a real trench warfare map would be no fun to play at all.

Literally 24/7 campers, and fags rushing your base in the cover of night throwing grenades and smashing your head in with nail-covered baseball bats.

In terms of difficulty it's similar but it's less polished.

Get it on steam, try it, refund it if you don't like it, but then again it's one of those games that to some might seem bad at first but you realise it's great after playing it for a bit

>>30782517
The .38 snub is hilariously terrible in Hardline.As in it takes 3 out of your 5 shots to kill at point blank, has so much spread it's possible to hit 5 different people with your 5 shots, has basically no attachments, takes like 8 shots to kill at 20 meters and has a rather long reload.

Then why do the sights go out to 2000m you can keep going you know just because the maps are tiny does not mean you need to over exaggerate the bullet drop to make it noticeable.

other than weird bayonet mechanics and some balance issues, gameplay isn't bad. I would personally prefer more classes with stricter specialisation, but it is jut my preference.

This nigger gets it. I don't understand the hype about this game and the fact that "famous" youtubers are so excited for it.

It's a game set in WW1 with basically all the WW1 taken out, it's battlefield 4.75 with the classes changed up and removal of assault rifles.

I'm biased because I wanted a 2142 kind of game though and I'm a sucker for that near future shit (no COD jump and slide kiddy simulator thank you).

It's a shame because this could have been a fun WW1 game with more authentic feel to it. All the automatic firearms and shit should have been restricted to a limited amount of players.

Left for Dead is hell of a fun to play. Pro tip: you can setup similar zerg rush type of gameplay by rules for WWI game and neither side would feel deprived of fun even if one side dies like flies from machingun fire.

It is no fun approach to deny gear to players. Better lock these weapons behind time+score wall, like titans in titanfall. Everyone gets them, and at the same time everyone play most of the time with bolt action or club.

Idk. Because tripwire got lazy near the end and made every weapon hitscan to make hit detection better. Originally the game was suppose to have bullet drop like the original Red orchestra

All my problems with this game will disappear if only they just made a game mode or something where the only weapons are historically accurate bolt-action rifles and slow-firing weapons. The game looks good either way, but I can't help it but think that the game would just be wasted potential and a reskin of other Battlefield games without a mode like this.

No bolt actions without scopes. Game is pointless
>>
>>30787099

Has that actually been confirmed? All the people in the gameplay sessions were using scopes, but that doesn't mean they're required.

Chauchat jamming is a myth coming from American test models re-chambered to .308 from 8x50,5R without taking in account that .308 is stronger cartridge and on top of it - it's rimless. Feeding problems and short lifespan of several mechanical components were quite obvious consequence.

Watch Ian's video about it.

They basically made a Battlefield game in a World War I setting.

So far most of the shit I've seen are either experimental weapons or shit that saw only like 100 made simply to expand the weapons list from 3 bolt actions, a machine gun, and 2 semi-autos.

>>30785528
>>30785646
There is bullet drop and there are maps that extend past 200m
>>
>>30786475
It's not even hitscan you retard. Maybe if you play BF4 with its super over exaggerated bullet drop that looks as if you're shooting an airsoft gun, it'll feel like its hitscan.
>>
>>30787672
Last time i played this wasn't true after at all.
>>
>>30785528
Single player campaign has grossly over exaggerated bullet drop (8mm mauser dropping like 5 feet at 200 yards).

Multiplayer has generally tiny maps and the 2 bug ones have a max draw distance of like 300m, and while bullet drop exists its grossly understated. Basically, its irrelevant because at the ranges it could cause a miss no characters render even on max settings
>>
>>30786307
Thanks for the article. A really interesting and educational read.

The guy I replied to seemed to imply gas was merely a nuisance, the article proves otherwise.

Blister agents do what they are meant to do, hurt people and get them out of the front. Chlorine and the other thing mentioned in the article are deadly, but you can protect yourself with a mask. Also the psychological side seems to make up for its killing power.
>>
>>30787503
Well Finns during war of 1941-1944 hated the chauchat for its constant jamming and overall shittyness so no I don't think its a myth originating from americans. It ended up as rear guard weapon and for coastal artillery and was eventually taken from service by a poor small army facing a military superpower of its time.
>>
>>30782168
as long as there is a lee enfield im happy, fucking love that gun dude
>>
>>30788034

But Finns are basically mongols. It wouldn't surprise me that they weren't smart enough to operate the Chauchat.
>>
>>30782404
i agree with some of your opinions, the ones concerning estetchics to be exact.(Officer yelling sounds baller) However I don't agree that they should change the mechanics of the game a whole bunch.
At the end of the day they still have to make a battlefield game. Not some indie title like Verdun

It's not the hit detection. It's the netcode

The problem is that DICE has gone out of their way to claim that their games are going to be more and more historically accurate and period accurate, and that this was supposed to be the most accurate one in the series.
