What movie is that? Looks pretty good, m80.

I'm not sure but it looks like Kubrick's Paths of Glory, a great film

come on guys

I don't know if that movie is the one from your post but I'm watching it now and it's pretty cool. Thanks for the recommendation, friendo.

BF1 campaign gameplay was released and I was actually surprised, it looked really good. If they manage to make the singleplayer as good as that first level but with a lot more diversity (planes, tanks, stealth etc) then I may actually buy it in the end.
I know the mp will be exactly the same as the other battlefields, so my selling point is the sp

I saw that there was switching between soldiers upon death in SP, which is a feature I've greately missed since BF2: Modern Combat. As long as that's a consistent feature, and you can turn off the HUD, it should be fun.

what movie is this?

horrifying movie, recommend for everyone who thinks war is fun

Hr long games of 60v60 starting in trenches, no respawns, limited ammo, non-regen health, no crosshairs. Gained experience unlocks things like gas and artillery, increasing rank allows command of units. Experience is only gained on completion of the match, gives players incentive to actually survive.

I'm pretty sure it's Paschendale

how do you prevent it from being CoDified?

Fun fact : This movie was banned in France because of censorship.

>it looked really good.

>everyone is using SMGs and semi-auto rifles
>game doesn't even start you out in a trench, just in some destroyed village that could be a ww2 set-piece
>tanks moving faster than 5 mph
>we're surrounded! but have tanks! let's keep charging into the enemy front line!
>machine guns have max ammo and heat- mechanic, but no barrel-change or even a reloading animation because dice is lazy as fuck
>blimps flying that low
>blimps not dropping bombs on bongistans
>planes flying that low
>no dogfights

you have shit taste and don't know shit

>As long as that's a consistent feature
It's obviously not since they play as named characters outside of the prologue.

sell better than cod.

Fun fact: some people prefer fun over realism.

I prefer graphics over fun

Where are the Blacks ?

...

but the fun of a WW1 game is making is as grimdark realistic as possible EA shill

The game would be better it focused more on melee and very accurate rifles. It's just BF4, slower jets, as things stand now.

>EA shill
I never created an origin account because i'm super paranoid about EA and you call me a shill. Good projection.

movie?

>fun.

But the battlefield solo aren't fun. I take more fun replaying halo, cod2 SP than this piece of shit.
The game has 0 immersion. At least when i played cod4 i felt like a fucking SAS commando doing some cool stuff even if the gameplay was arcade as fuck.
I can bet that even COD MW2 will have better trench moment than this "game".

Holy shit, what movie?

but user, the BF1 demo was just snipers and tanks dominating while everyone else charged around corners hoping to stab someone

Kek, are you talking about that mission with the trenches in front of the white house?

it's funny, you're saying pretty much what an EA shill would say.

way to pull out the big guns user.

might as well post this

No one had problems when the WW2 games spawned you with bolt rifles.

Now every nigger has automatic weapons a generation behind

...

That sounds extremely fun and I would purchase that game.

Why did nobody care when WW2 games were run n gun but now everybody cares when there's a WW1 game that does it?

> never ending camp fest and accusations of wall hacking from other side of the map
So many games have this under Hardcore/Realist setting and its always utter shit and fucking dead, you have a dozen of tryhard turboautists playing that can't even fill the server

Wait they just straight up ripped that shit the fuck off?

Generation War I believe.

Generation war

>Fun

That trailer looked anything but fun. Gallery shooter with no story aside from "we died".

youtube.com/watch?v=zjc1Txc4r4w

>0:57-1:03
>EA

i'm not even surprised anymore

WW1 is somehow worse, it feels like it's being mocked and the people's lives cheapened.
WW2 has had plenty of exposure and the mainstream narrative is of a heroic fight against the bad guys which is a fine setting for a video game, the run and gun also fits a bit better with the setting.
But doing this with the first big WW1 game leaves me bitter, it'll colour people's impression of the period. I don't like people pretending it was anything other than hell on earth and a waste of life - even if other wars could be described as the same, there's just something about the great war.
It may not be logical but it's how I and I believe many others feel.

with Battlefield 1 you get neither

you've let the mainstream narrative you complain about influence your own views

yes lol

WW1 is fucking dumb and anyone that fought in it is fucking dumb and I'm glad they're dead.

>hurrdurr let's sit in a trench and die of dysentery instead of actually fighting for 6 months

Hardcore/Realism games need significant muzzle sway/momentum drift on all guns with the intensity based on a number of factors including; whether or not you've been sprinting body position, health, and weight of the gun itself.

Problem is, those same tryhards that love having everything SOO REALISTIC will sperg the fuck out if you try to make the guns anything but a loud shiny skin for the mouse cursor

>the trenches in front of the white house?

REALLY THINKS YOU MAKE

>>hurrdurr let's sit in a trench and die of dysentery instead of actually fighting for 6 months
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Somme

Wow looks like they should have sat a little longer

>At least when i played cod4 i felt like a fucking SAS commando doing some cool stuff

Absolute cringe.

>a modern warfare game about ruskies invading washington has a better WW1 atmosphere

Because it has a trench in the first 30 seconds of the level?

Cred Forumseddit opinions never cease to be a source of hilarity.

So red orcehstra?

well BF1 has no trench within the first 30 seconds so I guess MW2 wins by default.

that really says a lot about BF1, doesn't it, EA shill?

My biggest gripe with BF1 is the sheer amount of wasted potential it represents. An authentic (note that I did not use the word 'realistic') WW1 Battlefield game could have been truly unique - the time period is just modern enough to fit the BF formula, but just antiquated enough to make it play unlike any BF game before it.

Given how satisfying the bolt-actions were to use in the beta I don't think you'd even mind if semi and fully automatic weapons were limited on each side; though I do wonder how balance would work in instances like the Lee-Enfield being plain better than the Gewehr 98 - the SMLE's bolt could be operated without taking the finger off of the trigger by a properly trained soldier, i.e. all of them.

That sounds boring as fuck and it would be dead in a month.

There's no way to make a fun WWI game, plain and simple.

Generation War, the terrible English title for Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter (Our Mothers, Our Fathers).

It's basically PTSD, the miniseries with forced Holocaust shit. Will make you hate Russians more than anything.

>4 months of fighting
>front line moved less than 2 kilometres

you sure showed me kek

See?
Cred Forumsedditor opinions are always the best.
Plus they are never reflected on the industry, so games are safe.

Nice.

Movie? The riflecam death shot was fantastic.

>kamikazeing to kill little baby bt-5s

>what would a game that at least gets the fundamental atmosphere of the war right have?

I think a Stealth Survival Horror WW1 game would be sort of neat. Of course it would take some liberties to be an enjoyable game too, but not quite as bad as BF1.

Have you play as some kind of greenhorn that just wants to survive. Ammo is very limited, avoiding enemies is the best strategy.

Japs were pretty fucking dumb.

I was thinking about that mission in particular but even the other one has better war atmosphere than what i've seen about BF1
youtube.com/watch?v=hO9HUp17g-o

Shame it's boring as fuck.

Just lay ro2

It's a Call of Duty, it has no atmosphere.
These shooters are all a failure to represent anything close to a war.
They have no atmosphere, just personality-less corridors.

This is beyond retarded.

Too bad it's clunkier than ro2/rs

>the younger

And this is why no one takes Cred Forums opinions seriously, they hold no value.

youtube.com/watch?v=yXQ0PKBZvR4

WWI was boring and it's not worth making vidya about it.
Seriously, WWII it's so much better for videogames and much more iconic.
Nobody who actually knows about WWI would be interested in a game about it.
Either it butchers the setting, or it's a snoozefest.

My Way, korean film. it's awesome the first time around.

you don't know what imperial japanese army was like back then. this was just standard operating procedure.

its not realistic
>lol people like to have fun XD
its not that fun
>its supposed to be a representation of the war and war isnt fun

shills, when will (((they))) learn?

>Khalkhyn Gol
>banzai charges
Nah, i don't think so.

the guys with the mines are actually korean conscripts.

if you're looking for historical accuracy, the film is very lacking. there's even this part, so if you want believable shit, it's the wrong film for you to watch.

but it has great action scenes.

>Will make you hate Russians more than anything.

Hitler was right about exterminating Stalin's subhumans

>ywn be a soviet frontoviki that rampages across europe, liberating pussy and jewelry for 3 years

>fun
>implying

>Are there any cool wars like this still around

the gook ends up fighting for hitler-senpai

Not the guy you replied to but the way I see it the great story of WWI is the unbelievably violent collision of Traditionalist military doctrine with the rise of industrialized warfare. WWII was bigger, with a higher death toll and is more significant now in a cultural sense, but humanity learned grave and valuable lessons from the way WWI was fought. It should be venerated but not glorified the way it has been in this game.

>he will never write his life story

just looking at this picture makes me feel like a sack of shit. 24 y.o. and i've yet to do shit with my life, while this fucking gook has fought on 3/4 theaters of war, been in at least 2 prisoner of war camps from 2 different nations at the age of 25.

He doesn't look happy.

Exactly

>In 1938, at the age of 18, Yang was in Manchuria when he was conscripted into the Kwantung Army of the Imperial Japanese Army to fight against the Soviet Union

>Because of the manpower shortages faced by the Soviets in its fight against Nazi Germany, in 1942 he was pressed into fighting in the Red Army along with thousands of other prisoners, and was sent to the European eastern front

So most likely not

straight from youtube top comments:

>There were black soldiers in WW1 it is the truth!! In Europe and the colonies. Yes, it weren't many, but they existed. Most of the characters you play in the campaign are white, one is black. Are you all so insecure? Is everyone of you such a terrible, stupid and disgusting, racist piece of shit? Do you all feel threatend by a virtual black guy? Maybe it was political correctness, but this does not change the historical truth! We live in the 21. century god damn it! Get yourself educated!

and then...

>You are on the wrong site of history and humanity! YOU ALL DISGUST ME! UNEDUCATED RACIST SCUM!

I am not even mad anymore.

I think I'd notice typical facial characteristics of liberator genes

whatever lets you sleep at night

it's not like the rapes were severe.
Berlin was starved and soviet/polish troops were the only ones with food. German women just wanted to survive. One dick more won't make a difference.

>Posted by Taquisha Ladasha 23 hours ago

Nice shitposting. Guess you have to compensate for the 30 million deaths somehow

not to mention that pretty much all the men were soldiers or deserters in hiding.

don't forget the soviet soldiers are also reported to have raped liberated soviet prisoners.

what a time to by alive.

I guess once you start doing that shit you lose all inner moral deterrents and just say 'fuck it'

>Nice shitposting.
of coursh

Mate, Germany got literally mass raped.

me on the top left

only (former) eastern Germany and todays eastern fringes

>lose all inner moral deterrents and just say 'fuck it'
Pretty bad idea for red army soldier in 1945.

>germany so cucked they erect monuments to their liberators

that's not to say every soviet soldier was a rape machine, but the reality is that the germans had committed some pretty hardcore atrocities and many soviets wanted revenge. throw in the usual stress of war, alcohol (which germans purpose left behind) and it's a perfect hurricane for mass-rape.

recent research suggests that revenge wasn't really a big motivation for rape by the time they got to rape so much as just male libido, at the soviets had their rape-revenge mostly satiated when they entered prussia/silesia.

Why do all Socialist monuments suck? They have no grace or majesty at all. They're always blocks or some shit.

>be commie satellite
>USSR tells you to build monument
Yeah man, they sure should have told the russians to shove it, great idea.

>My Way
This movie is fucking horrible. I watched it on someone's recommendation from this shithole and lost two hours of my fucking life. Fucking Koreans, every battle is a CGI infested cartoon.

> Americans so cucked they have their slaves rule them

Battlefield is a MP game.

Stop fucking getting mad and talking about the shitty SP section no one gives 2 shits about

Fuck off m80, soviet era monuments look pretty rad

it's been almost 3 decades since the commies left yet they still maintain the buildings.

I wonder if they still worship BSC (Big Slavic Cock) in those places today.

Wouldn't a fucking trench warfare multiplayer shooter be perfect for VR?

>build dank monuments
>they're popular with the people because they're usually in parks and make good meeting places
What should they do, just tear them down? Seems like a waste of money and workforce

Ah yes the German "atrocities"

Can you get any more incompetent?

>that Emergency Broadcast System
>that bunker in the beginning
it gave me shivers down my spine again

It was actually just for either exterminating or assimilating the local populace get your facts straight. Raping and pillaging was a Soviet speciality

whoops, wrong guy

That's what you get when you have a retard in charge.

Get
Fucked
Naziboo

Russians were shit at pillaging m8. The germans outdid them effortlessly, especially in Poland and France. As always, slavs can't do anything right

Why be competetent when you can just zergrush the enemy?

>muh k/d ratio
sweet naziboo tears.

The liberator blood flows in you now. Your country is forever cucked.

>pic
chuckled

It would be amazing. However, go and take a look at the current 'games' available or VR- they're half a step up from tech demos for the most part and tend to cost the same as a fully fledged game. We're a long way away from seeing something that immersive and well put together.

That picture doesn't hold any Polish butthurt bias at all, I'm convinced.

>hey man, we sure won
>I mean, everyone's dead and even the fucking GDR is like heaven compared to our third world hell hole but we won

and youtubers do?

>I wonder if they still worship BSC (Big Slavic Cock) in those places today.

when it was a subhuman slav country to begin with yes.

Estonia for example tore down some of the old statues. They would all be gone now were it not for the butthurt russians in this country

i.4cdn.org/wsg/1474304435510.webm

Why does everyone here lump the Polish together with the filthy Ruskies? We are a proud people with an actual history unlike them.

>isolated incident

Why the fuck would you want to make a game about that? Make a fucking movie if you want feels for fucks sake.

Who cares you didn't even exist as a country in WW1

Reaper is quintessentially edge. It's like he was designed by a 13 year old who cuts himself because he is bullied at school.

People keep saying RO2, but it's still completely possible to cawadooty in RO2.

I honestly don't know what you expected.

cant have a game based off it really

at best a seasonal MP mode

what anime is this?

Do you realize you're posting on Cred Forums and you're statements mean nothing because of this?

Really makes you think.

Oh man, I love RO2 so much. I've lost count on how many times i've been accused of cheating when using the '42 on that map.
Also, suck it slavboos, if you think the 42 is OP you should have been around to try the ppsh in the beta.

and your post means anything?

everything is just tears in the rains brah.

>invade other countries to pillage and rape them

Implying that the sovjets did not start with that shit too.
Implying that the sovjet crimes were just a retaliation towards germany

It is the same excuse in every argument
>hey we fought the nazis XD

sovjet russia is very deep in that shit too, the only difference with germany is that they actaully have a conscience unlike 90% of the subhuman population of russia and are able to regret their crimes

That is true and nothing of value would have been lost.

Of course you lose more tanks in an offensive idiot. Had Germany been the attacker it would've been reversed

Izetta.

If you read historical accounts, for the most part things like this didn't happen.
Usually close fighting was done with grenades. And typically one side would surrender pretty quickly.
A lot of times it was as simple as flanking the enemy and asking him to surrender and he would surrender.

Hollywood is really, really, really, really bad with any kind of historical accuracy and are more like historical revisionists who tell tall tales of fantasy, rather than actual reality.

And with the exclusion of a few places like verdun, somme, etc. WW1 wasn't the stereotypical trench warfare it's always depicted as - and soldiers in trenches were rotated out every couple weeks.

There was a lot more maneuver involved everywhere else in the war except a line of fortifications running between Germany and France.

you think Germans treated Soviet wounded better?

You guys need to make a list of all these movies, shit.

The game wouldn't be made at all if they didn't appeal to casuals. Battlefield is a casual franchise.

Movie?

>whataboutism
Commie detected

Literally every war game ever has a scene like this.

Nigger detected.

usually, but passchendaele wasn't usual.

the candian didn't even have proper trenches, they were just occupying shell craters in the area that just happened to be a gap in their lines. that's why it seems like they're fighting in the open.

>Had Germany been the attacker it would've been reversed
Whatever you say. Also, Operation Citadel was technically a german offensive

>I will never fight in a war where my enemy will be gentlemanly enough to ask for my surrender if he snuck up on me

Fuck.

but not every game gets it as right as MW2 did.

You can still fight Allahu snackbars user

SOMEONE MAKE A GOD DAMN LIST, I CAN'T HOLD ALL THESE MOVIES

Next gen AI.

I also don't understand what all this 'it shows how brutal the war was' is about. It doesn't look any more brutal than any other game I have seen.

So were did their "superior" K/D get them? Nowhere they fucking lost.
Get rekt

Make one yourself you stupid fuck.

Because they literally just take this shit from movies verbatim.

This would literally only happen among euro countries, can you imagine turks and jews having a Hanukkah truce.

>french troops in a british trench
lol. they just dug shitty holes and hid in them for the whole war.

They would decapitate and piss on my corpse in a heartbeat, why would I want to fight them ?

I'm glad your minimal diet allows you enough strength to move the goalposts commie.

Well turks and jews don't have the same religion so of course not.

The fact that every life is a literal person dying emphasizes the number of people who died in WW1 more than simply respawning as the same person would.

>Next gen AI
especially considering how he's focusing on a tank of all things. can a flamethrower do shit against a tank other than turn it into a sauna?

Why would you want to fight people that you like?

You'd have relieved Allah's (pbuh) realm of another infidel.

That was a nice advert but the chocolate wasn't really that good.

look at germany and then at russia now

russia won the war and is still a shithole

he said

you dumbo

>mfw I want a modern WW2 Battlefield game with this production value instead of butchering the WW1

Donte is half angel too and is ultimately a chaotic GOOD character.
Reaper is pure unadulterated edge

Fuck off DICE shill, it was trench werefare all over the place

I was looking forward to this but it the trailer has put me off.

I prefer sci-fi anyway so i'll be buying CoD instead.

It still functions just like a ww2 game would. Aesthetics are the only difference.

You're confusing the two world wars yank.
The french fought harder then the brits or yanks did for most of the war. Not to mention that they practicly fought against the germans by themselves on the western front until the latter part of 1916.

If anything the only ones that fought harder then the french were the germans.

>WW2
if they did this no one would care or talk about it as much as they are now

its a massive (((marketing))) scheme

A Christmas truce almost happened with the French and Germans on the same day as the famous Brit/German one, but the French shot them all.

Not on the eastern front, there it was a jolly train artillery exercise to the Russians expense

source? I call bullshit.

It's triggering my autism. I don't want turkroaches, muslim women with swords, semi autos in fucking WW1 etc.

I need messerschmitts and shit.

Play Verdun then. If you expect historical accuracy from fucking DICE you only have yourself to blame.

It's the true WW1 german uniform, not the WW2-like shit you will see in Battlefield 1

>its not the Gurkha beating someone to death with a tripod

Glorious! The emperor would be proud!

Also, agreed, the BAR is just insane. It's got way to little recoil considering the M1 has more recoil and you're fireing the same round as with the BAR.

But nothing compares to playing with -the guy- called '22' as the teamleader and banzaing the yanks with the entirety of the jap team.

I don't even know what you are bitching about at this point, the vidya or the war itself.

No, I want WW2.

You've already been catered to.

Can't dig it up myself I'm afraid. I'm a Brit, when the Sainsbury's truce advert aired there was a lot of outrage from people, mainly arguing that it was commercialising tragedy. Whatever the case, there was lots of coverage of it. I think the Independant (probably the i to be honest) did an interview with a historian to clarify what actually happened, and how common it was. Pretty sure I read it there. Again, this was a couple of years ago when the advert first aired.

I demand more.

>It's got way to little recoil considering the M1 has more recoil and you're fireing the same round as with the BAR.
Weapons firing the same round can have different recoils depending on the action, weight of the weapon, and so on.

The fact that everyone is saying how the trailer is so deep and shows how brutal the war was.

It is no more brutal than any other FPS gameplay trailer I have seen.

No

>Following 22 as he charges, executing traitors with his katana along the way

My n-word.

my favorite part of the video was the epic 10 AI soldier at a time shooting gallery set-pieces.

really revolutionary

>T. Frenchman

>machine guns have no reload or barrel change animation because dice is lazy

Weapon emplacements in battlefield have never had reload animations

This happened frequently during 1914, then not so much after that because officers were pissed and the mood was kinda tensed anyway.

French and Germans also had spontaneous truces, including Christmas ones all over western front, though nothing as big as the Brit-German one.

I'd like to see your source about that christmas shooting though

if they removed the option for semi-auto the BAR might be balanced

I think the Arma engine would really shine in a WW1 game, instead of all that futuristic tacticool stuff. I remember OFP did a great job of making you feel like an irrelevant easily replaceable grunt.

they wouldn't have to do much to accomplish that

that is irrelevant to the point Germany still lost

Ever heard of "Verdun"
Thats as close as you are gonna get to real ww1

That movie is racist. Where are all the men of color fighting in the trenches?

color wasn't invented yet

>that is irrelevant to the point
Which point would that be? This one? Keep moving those goalposts.

then how did the whites know how to be racist?

Simply being more powerful doesn't mean a tank is better.

This delusion. In terms of combat, an individual German tank was better than an individual Russian one. Accept it slav.

>cherry picked foto
>mountains of dead corpses in Auschwitz were just fake

Cred Forums is fucking delusional.

"the holocaust didnt happen, but i would be glad if it did!!!"

Germans dindu nuffins.

Hitler was a good boy!

...

>He wuz gonna conquer europe and turn his life around

I'm not a slav. But for a comparison, while a Panzer IV had superior firepower a T-34 offered better mobility and protection. Generally being able to survive is a good thing and leads to better crews.

>playing with 22 as TL
Best moments in RS

>T-34 had a shorter effective range for it's cannon

Yeah, being able to survive is a good thing, which is why the Panzer was much better.

>war is BAD :((((
you're either a liberal or a child, but either way you need to grow up

>Slovakian Gastarbeiter

imao m8 you are the cuck here, working construction for 2k

>superior mobility
"the average mileage of the T-34 to overhaul during the war, did not exceed 200 kilometers. This was considered adequate since the T-34’s service life at the front was considerably less. For example in 1942 only 66km"

>war is bad
Yeah, everyone above the age of 12 agrees. You'll know what it's like soon friend.

You've never even been in a war, so don't pretend like you would know

Confirmed for knowing nothing about war

Did I say that i'm in Germany? Exxon's undersea petroleum pipelines in Norway need engineers you know.

However the Panzer IV's armour was inferior to a T-34's. Superior range is negated by superior armour.

>you need to grow up
Take your own advice, edgelord teenager.

>americans are in it and they didn't join until 1917, less than one-hundred years ago

Come on, senpai.

Even Ernst Junger wouldn't say that war is a good thing. Educate yourself child.

The Russians had way more and often better tanks than the Reich combined with way more artillery, trucks and airplanes. Yet they still managed to lose literal boatloads of tanks in every single engagement. How do you even do this?

Honestly that opening had great potential to be a very powerful moment. Especially with how you're supposed to die, and every time you do it displays a name with birth year and year of death, and then the ending part of that section with the final charge and ramping up of the music. But it just comes off as so superficial because I'm not engaged enough due to multiple reasons. I think it should have done more than just names and roles. First off, give me the battlefield location, let me know if this is France, Austria etc. I guess these are supposed to be the Harlem Hellfighters but I don't know, the setting is now further removed. Add more to the names, where are they from? Why did they enlist? What Unit are they from? Also, why open with the black dude, jump to someone else who has a totally different weapon, and then end with the black guy again who apparently lived through the whole ordeal but doesn't have a scratch on him? Also the facial animations were pretty fucking laughable. That "emotional" ending doesn't do much if the black dude and the German dude just go "yeah man war is bad dude lets be bffs" and lower their weapons with fresh faces. What is this? A fucking sitcom? It just doesn't feel as grounded as it's wanting you to think it is if you know anything more than "WW1 happened".

Now for the autistic reasons. I recognize almost 90% of the weapon sounds from other games both WW2 and modern shooters (self loading rifle sounds exactly like one of the DMRs from BF4). The fact that a rifle launched grenade makes the exact same fucking sound that DICE has been reusing since the thumper from Bad Company 2 Vietnam to the under barrel grenade launchers ever since. Running around with LMGs and Flamethrowers. Hotchkiss 1909 being used in 1908 (also the indicator that you are out of ammo even though there is obviously 20+ more rounds in the strip mag) The complete ripoff of Paschendale.

What the actual fuck are you talking about? Recognizing that war is not a good thing is regurgitation from Cred Forums? You should just stop posting now. You're making yourself look retarded.

>one of the only places to draw meaning from

Well you are working your ass off on high sea far away from home, your wife is with a black man right now.

Try actually reading the book.

Fighting better trained enemies.

>my wife
just stop fyodor, you need to pack up your yurt and rejoin your fellow mongolians in the cantabrian circle

You know the purpose of a Molotov cocktail, right? It's to fuck up tanks, and it's still used today for the same purpose. Ukraines burned a few APCs with molotovs. IIRC, Thai riots burned a whole column of armored vehicles.

I don't know if DICE intentionally made the AI prioritize tanks, fire against tanks is super effective.

Try formulating your own opinion of the writings rather than just spouting whatever your favorite "literature expert" believes

Read the book, maybe then you'll stop projecting at people who already have.

When did BF turn into call of duty?

Reminder that Germany's panther tank could be neutralized by a smoke shell

>According to Attenborough, sixteen thousand white crosses had to be hammered into individually dug holes due to the hardness of the soil. Although this is effective in symbolising the scale of death, the number of crosses was in fact less than the number of deaths in a single battle.

Battlefield 3

>Plattenbau ghetto
No its, 300k appartment, not payed by me but still :)

That's not bad company 2

which was likely your first game too

Holy shit, rekt

No, it wasn't

It was actually Bad Company 1

I seriously doubt DICE wanted to rerecored audio for bullets, since the most common guns in the game are actually rare as fuck.

I remember a video on the topic of recording gun fire, and that shit was pretty extensive. Probably costed a fortune, so why do it again when the vast majority of people won't care?

It's not meant to be authentic anyway.

Of course it is Sergej

>tfw no french campaign
youtube.com/watch?v=XvHEUxIok00

I'm not projecting, rather Im just amazed that you could have read the book and completely missed the entire point of it.

Battlefield 2 on consoles actually.

The french campaign is the black campaign essentially.

If Dice really wanted to go affirmative action, they would have actually made the french campaign filled with Thai guys. Now that's a group no one knew participated in the war.

>The frontal armor of the Tiger was impervious to the 76mm guns of the T-34s at any great distance. The field was soon littered with burning T-34s and T-70s. None of the Tigers were lost, but the 181st Tank Regiment was annihilated.

dont kid yourself user, people would bitch the same if it were WW2, hell any game for that matter, Cred Forums has become an even worse shithole than it already was.

You only play as the black guys in the intro

And In a few months they had 85mm guns that perforated the tiger just fine

The Nazis had the sexiest tanks

>entire point of the book is war is good
Nah, you need to read it again champ. You can write a book report about for English 10.

Totally dependent on the time. Russia had the best tanks early war because the Germans were utilizing similar doctrine that the Americans and British used when they hit mainland Europe in 1944. However once it became clear that having hulking giant mobile anti-infantry guns with no anti-tank or anti anything else capabilities was usless, and since T34s made out of recycled bicycles were steamrolling German lines, Germany had to change shit up. Which led to the Tiger and upgraded PaK guns.

Yeah the T34 could still go toe to toe with the upgraded Panzer 4. But the Tiger tank was the king of tanks until later war. But that was due to Germany having lost almost all material supplies and were making armor and weapons out of pure shit. The Panther tank looks like it should've been a nightmare machine that feeds on the blood of it's enemies, abut because of the piss poor materials and the "oh shit we need something new just throw what the fuck ever on there" internal designs, it was worse off than the Sherman.

>at any great distance

Yeah, no fucking shit. The Tiger had a cannon that could engage at a farther distance. Just because you have a situation where a tank destroyer successfully destroyed tanks doesn't negate the fact that the T-34 was the overall best tank of the war, and perhaps of all time considering its continued production.

>Tiger
>tank destroyer

>being a /k/ autist
What did they mean by this?

>the entire point of the book is war is bad
He certainly wasn't arguing that. I don't see how something that scathes the sou in hardship, burning away weakness and complacency and causes men to emerge all the better for it is anything but good. Unless your one of those individualist, "human life is priceless" retards.

>the T-34 was the overall best tank of the war, and perhaps of all time considering its continued production.
>it's a slavaboo episode

>brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

shoo shoo you filthy slavboo

Someone in the comments of a BF1 gameplay wrote that when you die, you die for good and take control of a different soldier. How true is that?

>18 year olds arguing about WWII tech

Jesus fuck summer children plz. Much like any other contemporary combat scenario, the individual pieces of equipment on both sides had their various advantages and disadvantages. And beyond technical specs like speed, acceleration, effective range, armor quality, quality of life improvements for crew etc, you also have to consider that not all crews were created/trained equally. Fucking slavaboos AND nunazis. You're all terrible.

its only for the intro level i think

fuck off slavboo
fuck off edgeboo

...

Remember when Medal of Honor did that, only better?

What film is this?

Eat a dick. The T-34 isn't even close to my favorite tank. I loved the Tiger, its angular design and its status as a powerhouse made it one of my absolute favorites. Hell, I think the T-34 is an ugly tank. Doesn't change that the Tiger was an overengineered piece of machinery that could be just as easily defeated by more efficient tanks of its time.

You don't have to care for Russians to be impressed by their inventions.

what what? wheres all the black people, is this move racist or something

That would be boring white boi ;)

>353582875
BF2 Modern Combat also did that back in the Xbox original days

>hey look, 5 t34s can take out a tiger by flanking it
>obviously the t34 is superior!!!
Also
>germans suspensions broke alot so that takes them out of the running to have good tanks
You can stop any time.

it would have to focus on something other than the fighting, assuming you're doing trench warfare. Like the experience, the camaraderie, the planning.. immersion and story telling, maybe punctuated by some huge battles with massive amounts of cinematic shit, like the game had two or three instances of Stalingrad from CoD 1 but easily 80% of the playtime was just trying to keep your feet dry and your coffee warm

>nazi tanks
>posts tiger
>good

You could have actually posted a decent german tank, like the PzIV or even the StuG.

What movie?

The 5 t34s were cheaper than 1 tiger

> that ever happened in WW1

im not playing your game dumbasses

if you think not tiger is sexy hunk of steel you might have problem of cock homosexual

I had a freind relay a story to me from a ex-T34 operator. Apparently the repair kit they were issued was just a chisel and a hammer. There is something to be said about the efficiency of an under engineered tank.

>good
Never said good you retarded nigger. Can't you read? I said sexy.

>being a piece of shit
>sexy

Tiger is a brick

Only homosexual lusting for masculinity of construction material that is brick would be arouse by tiger.

koreans make great action films

taegukgi/brotherhood of war.

prepare for feels at the end

Not the guy you're reaponding to, but the Tiger was a piece of shit.

It broke down all the time, had to be transported by rail due to fragile transmissions, and could be penetrated from the front at standard fombat ranges by the Sherman 75.

It was awful. Germany should have ditched the big cats and stuck with reliable and functional designs.

Film?

It was a nice direction they took after the hype was deflating when they announced there would be no France and the weapons were going to be all prototypes that were virtually never used in the war. Don't get your jimmies rustled. Just understand where other people are coming from.

>you'll never marry a sexy german war machine
Why even live?

Homosexuals get send to the KZ's

Real tanks have curves.

>koreans make great action films
My Way disagrees with you. Brotherhood of war was a fucking soap opera at the end but up to that it's ok.

"no"

Nazis didn't have the manpower to use a cost efficient tank, they had to rely on tech and hope they can win out numvered 20:1

Nazis BTFO

>reddit

Not in numbers that could win the war

"Yes"

What's a Wehraboo?

For the sub's purposes a Wehraboo is defined as someone with an exaggerated or sanitized view of Nazi Germany's accomplishments or conduct before and during WW2. This could be:

An overly generous take on Nazi Germany's military, such as "10 Shermans to 1 Panther," "astonishing Nazi scientists advanced human civilization by a century," vaguely homoerotic obsession with dashing German soldiers in their Hugo Boss™ uniforms, and downplaying of major faults with the German military's tactics, strategy, and technology or offering excuses for its failures ("if only Hitler listened to his generals").

Whitewashing or downplaying the crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Wehrmacht and SS in the field, as well as tu quoque arguments to establish false moral equivalency between allied war crimes and the holocaust ("Babi Yar was bad, but the allies bombed Dresden, so everyone's guilty!")

Exaggerating the accomplishments of the Nazis and Hitler as government administrators, i.e. Hitler miraculously fixed the economy, the Nazis discouraged smoking, the Nazis believed in animal rights, Nazis eliminated crime, etc.

The thing about the T34 is on paper it looks great

It has decent armor, good gun, good mobility, people see the numbers and think, oh this is clearly the best tank

And fail to take into account that it was unreliable as fuck, so cramped that if the tank was penetrated everyone would die and it was difficult to operate.

yes

Easiest way to make it much more authentically world war I without reducing "fun" would require a fairly dramatic shift in gameplay mechanics.

>32 person team
>14-16 specialist players (i.e. non-bolt or scoped primaries) with faction specific weaponry caps (suppose the Central powers get a maximum of 4 SMG's, and 3 semi-automatic rifles on the team, for sake of argument)
>12 "Squad leaders" with whom are attached SP bots (2-3) whom are all armed with bolties and pistols
>2-3 vehicles per team in play at most at one time
>Model vehicle "mechanics" much more realistically with respect to repairing and ammunition loadouts (i.e. much larger but finite amount of ammunition, have to fly a plane off the map to repair it and get more ammo after a fairly extended waiting period; tanks require taking it to a rear area "depot" and getting out to repair it or get more ammunition).
>Central powers have more powerful infantry (SMG's, flamethrowers) with respect to the allies, while the allies get a much greater vehicular advantage.
>Increase bullet damage to a realistic level.

Those squad leaders with bots attached would then justify the fairly high proportion of meme weaponry around in player hands and still be able to call it a "World War I" simulator with a straight face.

Not to mention welds you could put your hand through

>reddit

>vaguely homoerotic obsession with dashing German soldiers in their Hugo Boss™ uniforms
>not having homoerotic fantasies about tall, blonde SS men in snazzy uniforms
What, are you some kind of faggot or something?

this
hitler's obsession over large tanks was one reason why he lost the war

if we're talking about winning the war, then the problem isnt tank design. germans did great with inferior tanks in 1940.

the fundamental problem was that the german war economy couldnt hope to keep up with the US, Canada, the UK AND the SU.

He had an obsession with large phallic objects.

Is this supposed to be bad or something?

It's directly copied from a movie.

War games do that all the time.
youtube.com/watch?v=7BckAsDpQeU

youtube.com/watch?v=w7X0Nfe8CJs

Scenarios, yes, but not cinematics. Shit's lazy as fuck.

Did you honestly expect fucking EA and DICE to make a good WW1 game?
Are you mentally retarded?

Not even just war games, video games have been replicated fucking terminator and blade runner since the 80s.

>recreating a scene from a movie in cgi is lazy

it is, you are litteraly makign a movie in 3D

at this point you might just work for pixar or disney, not in a fucking video GAME studio

Nigger what? They're paying homage to a movie that few people outside of Canada and maybe the northern US know about.

i hate how ww1 movies always show germans as being pussies who got stomped when it was essentially them versus the rest of the world and they killed way more than they got killed.

...

that wasn't lazy, that was a calculated move of piggy-backing off enemy at the gates to pander to ww2 enthusiasts.

taking the scenes passchendale is the same since the film is a fairly little-known ww1 romance film.

rather, it's reminiscent of bioware taking that random photo, shooping it, and making it "tali's" photo. minimal effort, maximum effect. tell me that doesn't sound like EA or DICE.

me too user. it's pretty shit that germans are depicted as using human-wave tactics when that couldn't be farther from the truth. they had advanced squad tactics that western NATO countries adopted after WW2.

but no, can't remind the germans about their military prowess or it might lead to dangerous thoughts again.

Yes, actually.
There's a reason over a million Russians volunteered to serve Germany during the war.

>this thread

Holy fuck, how can russians be such insecure cucks?? Get over yourselves already.

I agree with you. Something about making this calamity into a run 'n' gun shoot 'em up is disgraceful.

>Russians
It's mostly butthurt Poles actually
Daily reminder that Russians raped Polish women just as much as they raped German women and the Polish soldiers just stood by and let them do it like actual, literal cucks

this makes ww1 look like the most depressing war ever

>decide to be cheeky and write on google "Were the nazis actually evil?"
>Get a shitton of posts from Americans with "history majors" stating they killed 12 million jew babies and were the sole force in the world performing experiments on alive or dead people

Really. It was a war. Everyone did heinous shit. In fact the Russians were even more terrible, but let's not talk about that because they were "allies" so our history major doesn't cover it. Let's also ignore the predicament Finland was in and the fact that they were basically forced to ally with the nazis. Does this make Finland a force of pure jew killing evil too?

le epic contrarian onion, friend

A few months after the biggest tank battle in history was over, cool

i got you bro
youtube.com/watch?v=_YRg2aqj58I

I'd say that everyone in that war simultaneously represented the best and worst of humanity.

I didn't have too many problems with it. In fact I pretty much liked like. Sure it wasn't too grim dark but they had to take some liberties with it to appeal to more people. The lack of bolt action weapons is a major concern though and should be fixed soon as possible.

The date of each soldiers life every time you die was real nice to see. The feeling of soldiers clashing against each other in shades of gray under mortar fire and flamethrowers was decently handled. Could've used more artillery fire but ehh. The showing of shell-shock and the ending scene was dramatically handled well too.

I personally think people are blowing this out of proportion. I get black soldiers had below average numbers but I thought this battle showed one of which they fought. The guns definitely need to be changed but everything else was fine.

>implying he's wrong

Shh, don't let Cred Forums see your opinion, if the game isn't some obscure Jap game that only 100 people in North America know about it's trash

>implying "fun" means you can't be more realistic.

lol dicecucks

IT'S. A. VIDEO. GAME. YOU'RE ALREADY BEING ENTERTAINED BY A REPRESENTATION OF A TRAGEDY.

>you realize they're never going to fix that "problem" right
I don't think increasing the amount of bolt action rifles would be that hard.

I'm sorry but no one but the Nazi's were genociding an entire race of people, you fucking skinhead.

there's a distinction between a tasteful portrayal and tasteless depiction. not that i expect you to know the difference.

>Implying I play CoD simply because someone is being a massive realism autist.

Nice try, fuckhead.

EA is battlefield, activision is COD.

tell me were you dropped on your head as a baby or are you just 100% organic homegrown mentally retarded

>Tasteless
>Because it isn't a 100% accurate war simulator and the devs want it to be fun.

Yeah, ok.

Also there are no lines anyway just spawn point.

>We can't make a better realistic game so heres a WW2 reskin

I just want dice to quit with the BS and make a game that's moddable.


but apparently it's a combination of "concerns about piracy or hackers", "fucking stupid DRM/Origin security", "muh DLC sales", and "if consoles don't get mods or User-Hosted-Servers, neither do PC's"

...

no it would be.

DICE wants distinctly different feeling classes with no weapon-overlaps.

despite the Medic having a scoped semi-automatic rifle..

Who gives a shit what company produces which? Apparently to you not knowing which makes you brain damaged, which is an absolutely retarded line of thought. Anyways, the person I was replying to was making a moot point anyway.

yes, why bother to use that lump of meat between your ears?

it's just there to make sure you don't float off the earth.

you're less than retarded user. all you need to see is EA under BATTLEFIELD and ACTIVISION BLIZZARD under COD. you don't even need a fucking brain to see the different characters. or maybe you're memory center is just completely fucked up.

yes, what exactly is the difference between you and a drooling retard that can't read or remember?

as far as i can tell, you're two birds of a feather

The fuck? Why is this German being white washed? The German people were black skinned.

>WE WUZ KAISERS AND SCHIESSE

is that too much to ask?

...

what the fuck? Who thought this was going to work? Why did no one test this in a safe environment? This isn't real right? What must they be thinking when they went through that shit?

Regardless I think it communicates how desperate both sides were to find some new technology to break the bloody stalemate.

i want to say it looks like french satire, but i dunno. with french it could just as easily be 100% serious.

Don't know the movie, but armors like that were used. Not very effective. Both sided also used forward sniper positions to great effect (a thick ass steel sheet with a shooting slit) until they hired outside help like safari hunters that wrecked shit with their rifles.

Who watches The Great War here?

It pretty much was; the first few battles had commanders who didn't take into account the lethality of our new weapons, like machine guns, and people just got fucking slaughtered.

Red Orchestra does early-to-mid 20th century infantry combat so much better than Battlefield ever has... (even "hardcore BF").

BF has aircraft though.. which I kinda understand RO not having (outside of scope).. but wish it did.

Oh, looks like they have fetish for this since it's happening again. What a cuck-nation.

I do.. fucking hate the comments now

RS2 is getting whirlybirds.

I take it the comments used to be a big part of your enjoyment of the channel before.

Sauce?

That itself is overrated.

Pic related, Germans didn't even inflict a 2:1 kill ratio against the Soviets in WW2 despite the myths. The differences in deaths was largely because the Germans just killed a lot of civilians and prisoners.

With regards to WW1, the Germans inflicted slightly more than they sustained on the Western Front but not anything notable. I think it's about 1.2% more.

fucking read a book holy shit you are dumb

Saved.

This is also a lie. The number was about 120,000 and it was formed briefly in 1945 after years of the Germans trying to prevent it. Desperation forced their hand.

As soon as they were deployed in Czechoslovakia in 1945 half the forces deserted. They saw a single moment of action against the Soviets where they were defeated. The rest of the force later aided Czechs in throwing the Germans out of Prague because the Germans indeed were treating them worse than the Soviets had.

Pic related, Cred Forums rhetoric is a result of low IQ

>soviet prisoners deaths: 3600000
>german prisoner deaths: 374000
What? I thought Soviets wanted to kill as many Nazis as possible.

Such an immature argument. German tanks required their own engineering crew and road equipment to get working.

This whole "hurrr but in an ideal scenario when they both faced each other on a flat open concrete surface in open combat" shows the childish mindset of Cred Forumsbeards. No, that's not how combat works. Practicality is probably the most important trait of a weapon and the Germans failed with regards to that.

I mean how mentally under-aged do you have to be to think pic related was a good idea? Anyone can make a mobile pillbox if they really wanted, but only the Germans were dumb enough to not realize why nobody else bothered.

Its Paaschendale, its shit. The war scenes are about 20 minutes of the movie, the rest is set in Canada about the dude dicking some woman or some shit.

False, the Turks and the Entente forces regularly had truces in their battles, notably in Galipoli. I'm a shitposter so I know Galipoli like the back of my hand

Love that movie

But that's forbidden love!

>films about evil Russian army raping innocent Aryan girls
>no films about evil Nazi army raping innocent soviet girls

I made a long rant about this, and some fag screencapped it, so I'll just post this.
If you want me to go more in depth on why German casualty figures are unreliable at best I'd be happy to explain though.

Hearing about the Christmas Truces always fucking tugs my heartstrings

No one wanted to fight in that fucking war, everyone just wanted to get along

it's a good piece, cover the essentials.

but it leaves out how OKW laid out a nice, sensible plan in Case Blue to take raid the war industry in Stalingrad (it was never meant to occupied) and annex the oil fields, until Hitler comes along and shits on the plan by further fragmenting the armee gruppe south and extending the objectives to occupying stalingrad and preparing to assault across the volga. this completely overstretched the germans, who had no choice but to rely on romanian and italian divisions to shore up the flanks... and we all know how that turned out.

You have the autism.

germans interned soviet prisoners in concentration camps
towards the end of the war, germany lost most of its transportation networks and infrastructure to british and american bombing runs. the resulting foods and supplies shortage led to massive deterioration of living conditions in the camps, resulting in large scale typhus outbreaks and famines

also, soviet numbers and statistics are notoriously unreliable. prisoners taken by the ussr were largely carried off to camps in siberia, which isn't exactly a hospitable environment.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Stalingrad#Aftermath
>Out of the nearly 91,000 German prisoners captured in Stalingrad, only about 5,000 ever returned.

Nobody cares you nazi prick. We'll kill you all someday

Man if I was to get into all the ideas Hitler and his Nazi cadre rebuffed I'd need another 10,000 characters, and at that point I'd rather just link some of the articles on it.

>mfw Goering ever got his way with an idea

Holy lol, this image. It seems pretty obvious bait, but OTOH I can imagine some /lit/ marxist creating it in earnest between jerking it to images of Stirner sucking his own dick.

fallschrimjaeger were pretty cool desu

that's because the nazis never raped like nig nogs do

honest question: how do you think the german-soviet war would have played out if hitler and the party leadership had never interfered, and left all the decision making to the OKW?

Yeah, but Crete sure wasn't.

It probably still ends in the Russians shoving a 10 foot pole up Germany's ass as they did historically, but I would imagine 1942 and 1943 go a little bit better. Perhaps the Western Allies reach Berlin first?
At a certain point good decisions and planning doesn't make up for massive materiel deficiency anymore.

cringed hard.

Bunch of BS. "muh bombings". Over 1.7 million Soviet POWs were dead by late 1942 and it was brought up at the Tehran conference

it never would've gone that way unless hitler failed in france.

politically speaking, the reason hitler was able to override OKW/OKW was because he succeeded against the advice and warning of high command in invading france.

the only plausible way nazi germany could've lasted past 1945 is

>hitler dies in 1940
>britain is continually pressured to sign a peace treaty
>don't declare war on the US
>develop nuclear weapons
>don't declare war on the US
>leave italy to their fuckup in north africa
>don't declare war on the US
>invade soviet union on schedule and beeline for Caucus oilfields
>don't declare war on the US
>consolidate territory and hold defensive positions
>don't declare war on the US

i was mostly wondering about the early stages of the war
i'm not an expert on the subject, but i heard that the OKW planned to concentrate all their forces on reaching and capturing moscow as quickly as possible, but were forced to delay that push due to interference from hitler, and when they finally did arrive the red army has had enough time to reinforce and entrench its positions in and around moscow, rendering a capture of the city impossible

then again, asking "what if hitler hadnt interfered with OKW strategy" is like asking "what if stalin hadn't murdered nearly all competent officers and generals of the red army"

we will never know

Yeah I know it's a hipster faggot site. But here's all the war movies/shows you should watch.

letterboxd.com/hawkerace/list/definitive-war-movies/

The reason the drive to Moscow was halted was (another) massive Soviet army was grouping to the south and about to go on the offensive. The German central army had many units redirected south and successfully encircled and destroyed the army. Ignoring the army to continue the drive to Moscow would have been an awful decision.

Not to mention even if southern forces had been able to contain the army and the central army drove on to Moscow in full strength, the city still would have been quite heavily defended, and German logistics still would have been awful and overstretched in getting close to Moscow, and AND even if they somehow managed to contain/defeat the Russian army without redirecting panzer units, reached Moscow while keeping supply lines intact, and managed to capture Moscow/at the very least contest Moscow and make it untenable for the Soviets to use it as the rail hub/communications lines, it still would have been very unlikely the Soviets would have capitulated. Even if the Germans somehow captured Moscow the Siberian Reserves still show up come winter and still catch the Germans completely off guard, and if you want to say the Germans hold Moscow instead of it just turning into Stalingrad before Stalingrad, well no we're getting into the realm of "WW2 was actually a simulation and the Germans were using savestates."

Also Stalin didn't murder the competent commanders, he sent them to gulags (along with some less than competent commanders) which funnily enough I also talked about in the thread.

>what would a game that at least gets the fundamental atmosphere of the war right have?
something other than fps mechanics

Attacking the most squishy part of machinery (humans) always renders it useless. Why do aerial drones exist yet I've never heard of automated or remote controlled tanks ? Metal Gears when ?

>I've never heard of automated or remote controlled tanks

because drone tanks can't maintain themselves.

modern tanks are at best partially automatized with auto-loaders, but even then US Abrmas UK Challenger and Germany Leopard prefer having human loaders. research suggests the quicker loading is a marginally faster, and against the benefit of having an extra crewman, not worth it for the most part.

UAVs are a totally different game from AFVs, since they aren't as exposed, have a safe place to fly back to, and aren't expected to operate 24/7 for on end.

Dude it's only a beta whe don't see yet the final game

>it's only a beta

Yabai!
