It would be different and interesting.
if its true WW1 combat it will be the most boring FPS in the history of FPS, ok now line up first guy out of trench gets shot, ok next guy go.... gets shot..... next...... oh wait put on you're gass mask.... 'whole team is dead'
WWI would be awful...pls no. People hoping this is true clearly don't know history. Lol.
Sounds like the dullest FPS there could be. If they insist on going back to a WW then it should be WW2.
Name 4
Probably alternative WW1 timeline. When Aliens brought tech/ timetravel shenanigans or something like this. Pure WW1 would be very very bold.
If the setting is to include Americans at the very end of the war in 1918 there's plenty of automatic weapons on all sides of the conflict.No automatic weapons (aside stationary) in a AAA-shooter? No way, people don't want to play this. Plus the setting is not mainstream enough, WW2 would be okay, but not not WW1.
I doubt this.
The western front was an unending meat grinder set in the bleakest environment imaginable. WWI was not a "sexy" war and the technology of the time doesn't lend itself to a FPS.

Sounds like it could be an alternative ww1 setting like others have mentioned. Maybe something out of Harry Turtledove's books where aliens invade during the era.

Battlefield 5 for PS4/XB1/PC. Lists October 25 as a release date. It includes the description "Mehrspieler Taktik Shooter im 1. Weltkrieg" which translates to "Multiplayer tactical shooter in WW1".
Variety is nice. Remember most of these games release yearly.

Could be an off year title. Suppose visceral needs something to work on since hardline had no legs. Can't imagine the BF main year game being WW1 though.
I fucking hate the future settings. Hope this is true.I fucking hate WW1/2.
Hope this isn't true.

This. But I'm very interestedHuh well I would prefer WW2 if they were to do either but I will hold out to see footage.
I fucking hate WW1/2.
Hope this isn't true.
