    1. well. let me put it this way, if this was sci fi instead would it look as good? Battlefront says no. This is yet another battlefield game you get excited over yet another reskin, which was ironically the argument against cod.

    2. To be honest, i see nothing to get the hype… both of them (+COD) are crap… we really need new idea, cause Battlefield 1 is just Battlefield 4 with new skins.

    1. But… but…. all those newb guns, they’re all accidental, don’t you know?

      No seriously, it’s a huge coincidence that they just happen to make a new noob gun just as they patch-fix the old one, really!

      1. I will not continue the long list of absurd features but keep this clear, If a certain weapon kills and other does not, You don’t take the one that works and nerf it, You take the one that does not kill and make it better.

        1. I’m not talking, I’m typing. This game will be huge, I’m watching the multiplayer livestream on YouTube right now, nothing like Hardline, it looks amazing.

          1. Sweet!

            Because, it’s not like we’ve ever heard that before.

            Especially not for an EA-DICE game.

          2. And I’m sure you’ve heard it about the games you like too. I’ve seen enough to know it’ll sell, I’m in.

          3. Of course it will sell, they always sell.

            The question isn’t whether they’ll sell or not, the question is whether they’ll actually be worth the overpriced asking price, or not. – Which they near-always are not.

          4. Huge?!
            You saw the Mauser? 7.92×57 72 kill assist
            cough
            WW1 you didn’t have armor.
            cough

    2. I didn’t liked it either and never even going to think about paying a $ for it (well don’t like most of the shooters out there), but it wont be another Hardline or Battlefront, it will sell, judging by the most liked game trailer ever on youtube, it might sell a ton.

  1. I like the idea of a WWI shooter but I;m not a huge fan of season passes and community fracturing map packs being sold off in chunks that just add up to me paying even more to enjoy what could have been the base game and technically should be. I’ll be avoiding this until it’s dirt cheap but I feel that even by then the community will be dead or moved onto something else. EA just don’t get the idea that charging you £100+ for a very short term not very memorable MP experience doesn’t make it objectively worth the money.

    1. Could be worse; they could have hired an orchestra to record a classic version of the Battlefield theme, instead of…. Kanye West?

      LOL.

      1. I would prefer an bad orchestral version, instead of all these sodding generic tunes every bloody trailer seems to have nowadays.

          1. For the cool kids you know, you see exactly who EA are marketing it to then because kids don’t know about WW1, even though they are tort it at school in history lessons, just shows how fuc*king stupid EA are. Well ,really hope about WW1 is tort in schools these days.

          2. Honestly at this point I’d be amazed if the US Educational System even taught WW1, beyond “we helped out the Europeans by beating up some Kraut bastards, basically winning the war for them, bla bla bla, just like we did 20 years later, bla bla bla. Moving on now, let’s talk about how we beat up the Krauts the second time!”

          3. I’m not being a d*ck, I was genuinely confused. And how does being “late” mess up your vocabulary? Not like it was a typo or anything since you wrote the same thing twice. Anyway, I’ll let it slide. It was funny though, since you mentioned education and all.

          4. At least I can spell, and so can most people your age. Thanks for the laugh though.

          5. You clearly knew what it meant, don’t be such a pr*ck, oh wait, you are, probably have a small one as well going around spell checking people.

    1. Yeah, those cinematics were in-game, not to mention probably rendered in real-time.

      Also, there was a lot of gameplay cut in here and there. Also, some of it was gameplay, just taken from a different camera or whatever.

      I mean, I get your point but they did show off a ton of raw gameplay after so… 😛

  2. respect DICE because they are showing the game on PC platform with snoop dog!
    Ubisoft and activision take notes

  3. It seems to be more fast than BF4…I dont know if this is a plus.
    Hardline awful animations for soldiers make me really disappointed.

  4. I don’t wanna derail the hype train, but goddamn, that video is one two-minute-long bullshot. There’s already been some Youtubers showing off gameplay and, y’know, it looks fun, but nothing like in the video.

    1. Disagree.

      The graphics are the same. Atleast the parts that you can compare. It just looks that good.

      1. Did you get to play it? I’d be interested to hear what first-hand accounts of the game are like, but what was revealed on the gameplay streams really did not look of comparable quality.

  5. The Zeppelins landing anywhere and potentially changing the map is cool but otherwise it looked like the pretty standard Battlefield formula yet again. They say it’s BC2 inspired whatever that means.

    1. Marketing thing. They look into which Battlefield games have aged best, BC2 comes up at the top of that list (since they’ve already burned BF2 on BF3), so “BC2 inspired” becomes the new marketing catchphrase.

      Though, to be fair, they have actually drawn some cues too (it seems). The architectural design & layout of the urban village displayed in the Cinematic Trailer, & the tight-knit grouping of everything, it is technically akin to BC2’s gameplay.

      Unfortunately that’s not exactly a good thing in this case, though. BC2’s maps were designed for 32 people, these should be designed for 64, not “32+32.” They tried to do “32+32” with BF3, it backfired on them ridiculously badly. Regardless, unfortunately I can actually somehow see them being dumb enough to try it again.

      1. ” They tried to do “32+32″ with BF3, & it backfired on them ridiculously badly”

        I mean, BF3 was a big hit on PC, and was played for a very long time

        1. & pretty much everyone agrees, the Vanilla maps f*cking suck (designed for consoles, then subsequently upscaled to 64 players on PC. Terrible design choice).

          The DLC saved it (in the long term), the “Back to Karkand” DLC alone brought in I don’t know how many players (both at launch & afterwards). The vanilla maps? Meh. Sure, you’ll find your dedicated sub-community of Operation Metro halfwits, & some people try to defend Caspian Border, but seriously, neither are well designed, & very few people, if any at all even play Vanilla anymore.

          Out of the few left that actually still even play Battlefield 3, of course.
