Did smg's exist in WW1?

Yea MP18 and the M1918 BAR. but only near the end of it.
Majority of the automatic weapons in WW1 were big stationary weapons or heavy MG.

Also this light machine gun: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chauchat

 

[RowdyReverb]

I wonder if the battleship will be like CoD's AC130 or Battlefront's AT-AT. Shelling enemy infantry from a relatively invulnerable distance

 

[HMD]

Music was awful though. Why not use something more along the lines of this?

Nah, I liked the juxtaposition in the trailer's music.

 

[Klocker]

Got damn... that was amazing, day 1

 

[KingSnake]

This looks really great. I loved almost everything about this trailer. From riding horses to huge battleships. This is now on my watchlist.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Love me some WW1 action.

 

[Jhn]

That guy was hilariously evasive regarding horses, considering they were very heavily featured in both the trailer and the screens. Not sure what was up with that.

 

[Darryl M R]

DICE with some good representation this year. Shoutout to them. Day one for this alone.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Could anyone hear what he said about the Beta?

In june? Did i hear that right.

 

[JigglesBunny]

Holy, fucking, shit.

 

[| Praxis |]

Cannot fucking wait for the dogfights. It's going to be amazing.

My hotas is ready.

 

[Storm Raider]

DAY
FUCKING
NEGATIVE
3

 

[MassiveNights]

I'm not that impressed with this.

I mean it looks cool but it doesn't look much like a faithful recreation of WW1.

I get they need to sell their game and make it fun, but maybe pick something different.

 

[Filthy Casual]

If this is going to be significantly better on the next ps4 I might have to get one tbh.

 

[Lender]

Looks cool, but I'm a bit disappointed in a way that we don't get a real WWI setting. I was looking forward to that.

 

[Duxxy3]

Fucking sold!

 

[sense]

the trailer said, play it first on xone with ea access but if you buy the deluxe edition you can start playing on the 18th even with ps4 edition? is ea access earlier than the 18th like the 11th or something?

 

[flkraven]

So they have three cosmetic/gear packs listed, and one of them lists that it comes with early access to a map.

I think they're not selling map packs?

This is what I was looking for. If everyone gets the maps and the user base isn't being split, than this is enormous news. I noticed no mention of Battlefield Premium?

 

[totowhoa]

I haven't played a battlefield game since 1943

That trailer made me want to get back into this series again. Love me some WW1 too

 

[ScherzoPrime]

They mention far edges of the world, I wonder if that means the Japanese Siege of Tsingtao (an Imperial German colony in China) will be included.

 

[Salsa]

I love the name


and I wanna jihad horse

 

[Bolivar687]

What went or was going through your head as you typed this comment, if anything?

How I previously thought the Infinite Warfare trailer was the end of CoD. But I was wrong.

This is the end of CoD.

PLEASE TAKE MY 401(K) DICE!!!

 

[wig]

Full size image of collector's edition goodies:

Accurately representing the Harlem Hellfighters and giving them the recognition they deserve. Well fucking done DICE. Crazy excited for this game.

The figure looks so nice. I really like the cloth pieces. Preordered.

 

[Granadier]

Looks awesome. I want to see what the PS4 Neo version look like though.

You uhh....you realize that was most likely running on a PC right?
The PS4 Neo wouldn't improve the graphical clarity in any way.

 

[designgears]

From the Twitch broadcast.

"Play first on Xbox One and PC with EA access."

[Salty Rice]

Whats up with the hate for Seven Nation Army?

Also the people who called it Dubstep are hilarious. TeenagerGaf needs to listen to better music.

 

[Joelstinton14]

that look incredible.

 

[floatingcoffins]

I HIGHLY recommend everyone check out Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast series on WWI.

.

 

[TheSeks]

I think they're not selling map packs?

If they're dropping Premium and releasing the maps for free, I'll consider buying it. Double so if they have Rush and/or Sabotage mode in and they aren't fucked up. But I'm not enthused for the setting at all.

 

[2thepoint]

Absolutely incredible.

Day 0

 

[ElzarTheBam]

This is what I was looking for. If everyone gets the maps and the user base isn't being split, than this is enormous news. I noticed no mention of Battlefield Premium?

Premium doesnt get mentioned till a bit later in BF reveals.

Hoping free maps is big E3 news!

 

[Morning Star]

BF 1
COD ∞

Fixed?

 

[Geist-]

In case GAF skimmed over it:

Holy fuck, how did I miss this. This is going to be the on that brings me back to military FPSes

 

[OdysseusVA]

Could anyone hear what he said about the Beta?

In june? Did i hear that right.

Makes sense
Hardline and Battlefront had theirs during E3 as well, right?

 

[MisterFalcon]

Yea MP18 and the M1918 BAR (not an SMG but an LMG). but only near the end of it.
Majority of the automatic weapons in WW1 were big stationary weapons or heavy MG.

They had normal looking ones too

One of the screenshots has this contraption, the .525 Mauser Tank Gewehr

 

[Granadier]

If they're dropping Premium and releasing the maps for free, I'll consider buying it. Double so if they have Rush and/or Sabotage mode in and they aren't fucked up. But I'm not enthused for the setting at all.

If you actually end up not buying this game I will eat my hat.

 

[Kaversmed]

The Glitch Mob is amazing. So was the trailer.

 

[jediyoshi]

We've been over with this with Killzone. In-engine means bull

In engine means in engine, their usage of it in that instance was bull. If you're already inclined to not believe them, it's irrelevant whatever kind of distinction you're making.

 

[RowdyReverb]

Whats up with the hate for Seven Nation Army?

Also the people who called it Dubstep are hilarious. TeenagerGaf needs to listen to better music.

I think people were more peeved by the needless cover. The original track would have been better received

 

[Fersis]

If they're dropping Premium and releasing the maps for free, I'll consider buying it. Double so if they have Rush and/or Sabotage mode in and they aren't fucked up. But I'm not enthused for the setting at all.

Dude, you've been bitching about DICE and BF games for years now.
You're gonna buy and youre gonna love it!! XD

I think this is the wrong game series to hope for realistic war reenactment. It has always been larger than life.

 

[Keasar]

Looked pretty sweet. I am fully on board with going back to WW1.

Music was awful though. Why not use something more along the lines of this?

Youtube Dubbed it.

Way fucking better if you ask me.

 

[matrixman92]

How early is the ea access trial thing usually? I had a subscription for battlefront, but cant for the life of me remember how early it was.

 

[The Freeman]

Is this the first AAA game to feature chemical warfare? DICE has some cohones, I'll give them that, but I find it a bit disgusting to Hollywood-ize what was a horrific weapon that is now banned by international treaty.

The thread is moving too quick to see, but MW3 had chemical warfare when it's unleashed in Paris (or was it Germany?)

 

[keltickennedy]

Incredible. I'm sold.

Sucks some of the stuff being tied to Xbox Exclusive shit. Wasn't Battlefront the worst on that console?

 

[darkwing-buck]

One of the screenshots has this contraption, the .525 Mauser Tank Gewehr

JESUS that thing is huge.

 

[TheDanimal]

Almost everyone is hating on The Glitch Mob and it makes me sad, they're so good
Anyway, DICE, you have my interest.

 

[J_Viper]

I'll be waiting till the NEO hits for this, but it looks great!

 

[Effect]

I need system requirements. I need a reason to upgrade my 960 and case. I'm okay on the processor side for now.

Also if this is a return to Bad Company 2 destruction then I'm officially hyped again for something this fall since Zelda has been delayed and the NX is coming in 2017.

 

[OdysseusVA]

I enjoyed the cover. It fit well
