It was worse than loosing the sound during soundplay, but at least we got Forgotten Weapons: The Game. I know Ian hated it, but I disagree with him. I think despite failing as both a good game and a good WWI game, Battlefield brought visibility to the era and the rare weapons made during it. I personally would've never known the Hellriegel existed if it wasn't for BF1. Ian never mentioned it. No one did.
I like it.
But I love battlefield 1. I actually think the history aspects of it are very well done. It's also fun.
he didn't hate it hate it, he just correctly observed that it portrays the great war as something it wasn't, a one vs all commandofest, typical battlefield nonsense campaign.

As inaccurate as it is, I'm just happy to use WWI guns in a game and atleast have it be AAA quality.

Wrong. He stated it did more harm than good, and that's it's an arcadey pos that has nothing to do with anything. I agree with him except on the more harm than good part. Video games, like comic books, are as a whole an inherently inferior medium, and mainstream ones are further pre-crippled by corporate meddling and expectations. I quit PC gaming after 15 years, having realized that. It can still do some good, it's just not worth your time.

Not to be a faggot, but THANKYOU for posting that. Fucking hell, I got the game and noticed the exact same shit, by far the laziest gun design I have EVER seen in a game. We have future M4, AK, glock, Tar, M14, M60, P90 and pretty much everything else.... At least MW remastered was worth it, the one remake that gets praise for NOT changing a lot.
>>31940646
Ian is an autistic fuck that literally lives in a cave. You have got to be retarded to not dismiss anything he says that isn't directly related to autist details about mechanical properties of weapons.
>>31942133
Yeah IW was weird looking at everything, energy weapons literally just had some block on the muzzle or something, on top of an otherwise normal-looking weapon. I didn't pay attention to ballistic weapons but they looked "normal"
Battlefield 1 is so culturally enriched, even the pilots try to allah akbar each other.
Literally Sweden simulator.
>>31942051
Man, that isn't even a good blasterization.
>>31941752
Yea they got something to go off of, but no real place to try and actually purchase it. Going to have to hit up my local mil. surplus store to see if they can help out

>>31941736
Theres a WW1 mod, my dude. Called Aufmarsch on steam. Haven't played in a while, but I remember it had the dark, broody, "Leave this trench and youre fucking dead, kiddo" feel to it. Not sure if any servers are running it, but it's still fun to mow down bots that are slowly jogging through no mans land.

Come on mang, Verdun is a way better WW1 game, hell, fucking RO2 is a closer representation of WW1 and it's not even set during WW1.
>>31941679
>what is Verdun
>>31942130
>>Only MGs are the mounted ones
why
>>31946790
>>31946805
The only people who play Verdun are people who are already into realistic FPS and/or WWI. Arma, Wargame, IL-2 and the like will always have their niche audience, but BF1 managed to bring WWI to the the mass audiences, even in as twisted and fucked up form as it did. I'm still unhappy about all the negroes and two of the four war's main belligerents being absent, but at least there's something.
>>31946852
Yeah, only now we're gonna get a bunch of people who legitimately believe WW1 was 90% blacks fighting each other with SMG's and semi-automatic with highly experimental sights.
>>31940646
>Forgotten Weapons: The Game
That would be Verdun
>>31947004
No. I assume by osmosis (didn't play the game) that Verdun has real historical weapons. Nobody outside historian and firearm enthusiasts knows about something as insane as M1870 Vetterli rifle, but I'd bet even out of them, almost no one has heard of Hellriegel or Huot Automatic Rifle, which are standard weapons in BF1.
>>31947179
Verdun has those weapons too, its just the overall experience is more than of actual ww1 combat (at least on the western front)
Its the kind of game where you put your head above the trench and get killed straight away, and the majority of people are armed with bolt actions, and maybe a pistol or the odd clunky MG that needs to be set up while lying down to fire. pretty accurate of the period.
I would say forgotten weapons focuses more on getting the facts right and dispelling myths rather than being about hyping up obscure weapons and making you think they were commonplace. Verdun is closer to what Ian would play, he even said so:
http://www.forgottenweapons.com/battlefield-one-computer-game-review/
>"This could never have been a realistic depiction of World War One, because the vast majority of today’s video game market is not interested in such a thing. For those who are, the one option available is Verdun (which may not be perfect, but is far, far better)."
>>31947441
i hope the hardcore mode will fix the game for me.
I'm still dissapointed the rumor about getting single player characters as multiplayer-skins was false. I would have loved to run around with the old straya-cunt sniper.
>>31940646
I'm only mad that they are making me pay for the French
>>31940891
>A realistic WWI would be no fun
Yeah the war was so simple for the common soldier that it'd be awful to play.
>your mission is to sit in a trench for 4 hours until the whistle goes off, then run across drumfire and die
>>31946878
Is it any worse than half the shit people believe about WW2 despite the fact we've still got primary sources and eye witness accounts for it?
>>31943061
I dunno man. My milsurp stores stop at Vietnam so idk if you'll be able to find something from 100 years ago.
>>31940646
>EA
Fuck it.
>>31948462
Wouldn't you prefer it if people didn't believe stupid shit about either war? Just because WW2 has stupid misconceptions doesn't mean WW1 has to
>>31940646
>ian never mentioned it
Of course he didn't. He only writes articles and shoots videos of firearms he can hold in his hands and disassemble.
>>31941201
You may have more luck searching for issue rain coats or ponchos. I doubt they'd ever have been referred to as capes.
>>31948352

I just want the original battlefield style game play to come back.
From BF 1942 to BF 2142.
