Which Great Power will you play as in Battlefield 1?
Which Great Power will you play as in Battlefield 1?
>nb4 some shill mentions WWII France to derail the thread
Why would they do this? People interested in WWI were going to be a good chunk of their market. Not having France is full retard.
DLC
>no France in a WWI game
I'm fucking speechless. And raging.
france always surrenders m8
I'm new here and I can't wait to play as France!!!!!
>made up muslim woman and black American main storylines in sp
>probably the focus of the mp maps as well
>France as dlc
Should be considered a crime.
>no France
>no Serbia
>no british commonwealth or ANZAC
Pretty sure I'm forgetting others, but god damn.
>The United States of African-America (HOOAH)
>No France
>No Russia
I'll never understand this meme. Specially from an american. The US wouldn't exist without France and vice versa. Wouldn't that make France like the best war buddy?
>Italy
what do you mean there is a frenchman on the cover
France has undergone about 15 revolutions since then, it's not the same
Don't respond. They've derailed every thread about this.
>muslim woman
What?
Because nobody wants to play the side that constantly gets his ass kicked by the evil side.
Any of the Allied Powers. Killing Germans is fun, then add Hungarians and Turks to the mix and it's even better.
I was 100% sure it was an american, though
Glorious Britannia ofc. It is fucking wierd that France isn't in the base game though, ESPECIALLY as the fucking US are.
why would they include italy but not france?
10 cents has been deposited.
They were mostly on the offensive though, and those numbers aren't too surprising considering the circumstance of trying to push an offensive in wwi era fighting on a mountain where avalanches are killing people by the dozens as well. Once they got rid of that general they did a little better.
>elegedly soldiers fired at sheets of snow in order to cause avalanches upon their enemies
Would be a fun as fuck mechanic tho.
>ww1
>no gasmask.
Or Russia.
I guess because they like remaking history however they feel like it, even if it means removing the main allied power from the war and adding blacks and muslim women. They probably ran out of time to model the French since they spent so long working on the big black soldiers.
They made up a muslim female soldier for the Bedoin campaign. Meanwhile there was a Serbian girl who fought on the frontlines but she's ignored...
fucking loved this game
>10 cents
>has
Kek.
>Italy
>No France
>No Russia
The fuck? This is a game about WW1, right?
So, are these confirmed to be all? Or is it just what's been revealed so far?
Pretty interested in Ottomans.
There'll be gasmasks. But soldiers didn't have to wear them 24/7 because they weren't snipping custurd gass 24/7.
I'm sure more will be revealed later on like Russia and France, but they need to stick to the allied vs central powers. Honestly, whatever versus whatever would fine for me.
are new Battlefield games anything like the old ones?
are there still 64 players and huge maps?
Now that they're all about diversity, maybe they'll add some interesting units like Sich Riflemen?
Oh who am I kidding.
Assuming by big maps you mean like El Alamein or Dragon Valley, no.
>Gustavsson: It is that we base the game on authenticity, and we extract those pieces to create a game, meaning that we don't get bogged down by history.
gamespot.com
Retards are making the game, what else can be expected?
My guess is that Gebirgskrieg is 10 times as visually interesting as the plains of mud of the Franco-Geman front.
Hell you might also want to add...
>US
France did most of the fighting in WW1, retard
>We shoot for authenticity by taking out the parts we feel like and ignoring the rest
What retarded logic is this?
It's called appealing to a wide audience.
just fuck my history up senpai
No Russia either. What is this mickey mouse bullshit
russian revolution mate they became commies and withdrew from the war
Wait what, where's France?
Can't possibly be complete, can it?
Italy is in, but France isn't? When the western front, the most well known and "mainstream" front was located in France?
They still fought in the war for a brief period albeit. I want to use a moist nugget goddammit
How the fuck is giving the market the game they've been asking for not enough, do you have to resort to tokenism to push sales?
I live in a madhouse.
>wheres the white flag????????????? I dont want to fight !!!!!!!
>Up until 1918
>For a brief period
why is this allowed?
>no russia
>no france
>shitaly
had my timeline fucked up. I thought they pulled out earlier in the war
Where's France?
Do europoors not know their own history?
my bet is that they didnt want it to be all trench war fare, i read an interview and they said italians fought in mountains and stuff. french would have been more trenches.
Kaiserreich all day every day.
Not going to buy this game though, fuck Battlefield and fuck EA.
Kangz
Thats pretty sad they dont have France but of course being a black kang in Europe saving the world is totally fine too.
So can anyone give me an actual source of DICE saying "these are the playable factions in the game and no others"?
>Swedes
>not altering everything for agendas
Well. There goes my dreams of a sweet capturing and holding vimy ridge level. Fuck this game.
Where's France?
>WWI
>no france
>no russia
>basketball americans
explain this shit
>no russia
>no france
>backstabber italians
>usa for we want wider cowaduty audience
>no canada
>no ANZAC
Thank you based sweden for being more parriotic than retarded 'muricans. I hope you are enjoying jamals dick while coding the game
Anyone?
Because right now this is just creative shitposting.
I said: EXPLAIN THIS SHIT
First DLC will be the Battle of Verdun
>No Russia
>No France
Sheesh. What a joke.
>Swedes
fun fact: "Mayday" comes from french "M'aidez', meaning "help me"
>all these anons crying "WHERE IZ LE FR-ONSH?!"
And people say aussies are the shitposters.
I want this France meme to end
All of them considering they'll probably be map based.
russia is not progressive enough therefore evil
no idea about france though
Serious question time
Do you ( Americans ) really need to be in the spotlight for you to buy something for example what if the main force was Germany and France, and America was supporting role would u not buy it?
because this is what the devs are thinking
>no Japan
Immersion RUINED
no, Dice went full retard
As an American myself i'd rather have the French in the game instead of The U.S.A
>no France
it's like having a game about the American revolution without America
Project Reality is my favorite mil FPS right now and I never play US on it.
>italy
Conflicted about this.
Quite a lot, to be honest.
youtube.com
I don't know. So few games have gone American-free that it's hard to tell.
I can say that I have no interest in another country's history outside of their architecture, so I would probably be less interested.
>no France
>US
>Italy
>no fucking France in a WWI game
BRAVO DICE

Okay so this is officially unfaithful and alternate universe then?
>TERRE IRREDENTE MOTHERFUCKER!

>not some Italian swearing shit
dumb ball memer
>MOTHERFUCKER
>not MOTHERFVCKER
I really really hate this cover, not because of muh diversity, just because it looks like some steam punk fantasy game. I don't think of fucking WW1 thats for sure
Yeah yeah but you know what I mean, what about cazzo or figlio di puttana or some shit like that
subtle edit
THIS IS NOW AN ITALIAN THREAD
...
>threadly reminder that WWI was hell
youtube.com
"Women are the primary victims of war" - Hillary Clinton
gotta love lustmord
>Battlefield 1 could be ambiented in a different timeline
>"why no fucking France"
Maybe that's why
What I don't understand is that France had the most blacks(Algerians) fight for them in the entire war. Wouldn't progressive Sweden love that shit?
Guess they really wanna avoid the trench warfare.
>no France but Austria-Hungary is in
That's fucking hilarious
HOW THE FUCK CAN THEY JUSTIFY A HAVING AMERICA AND NOT FRANCE IN A WWI GAME. SO MANY MAJOR BATTLES WERE FOUGHT IN FRANCE BY THE FRENCH. JFC
not a progressive but forcing your colonial slaves into fighting for you isn't a good look for a mass consumption game that is already gamifying a horrific war
>Battlefield 1 could be ambiented in a different timeline
maybe because the joos won't allow them to tell the true story
youtube.com
we're by far the biggest market for the game, of course they're going to pander to us
I bet this game would be banned in most of the other WW1 countries
Why are Germans so bad at diplomacy? They keep starting wars against the rest of the world combined.
You mean they keep being dragged into pointless new theaters by their incompetent allies
