It's Xbox One and PC.

Sweet. Thanks!

One, the game is set in an actual, real life war, so stuff like "Military rank" and "Lots of guns" are not cliches... It's just what the game is about.

Two, the guy is not even white!

is there something I missed that ticked the "no patience for politics" bit?

 

[TheTurboFD]

I'm super hyped for this

 

[Saty]

Guys, you dont realize how pivotal of a time this is

This vs COD is what will shape the next few years of FPS shooters depending on what succeeds.

This is a turning point similar to when WW2 shooters saturated the market and we needed a change. Exciting times ahead !

No. BF1 and CoD:IW will sale 15M+ each. Everybody is happy because that means they can go back to past real wars and not suffer in sales. Which means less works because they don't need to come up with any weapons, enemies or locations. I'm not sure who you think is still making FPS games that will suddenly shift to be past wars themed.

The problem with AAA FPS games will remain them being mostly military focused which means yet again zero creativity with the arsenal, how weapons behave, unique gunplay mechanics, secondary fires etc. And yet again zero creativity with enemy types and variety - everybody is a human with the same boring weapons and maybe a helicopter.

 

[Bad_Boy]

Holy fuck brehs

 

[Surfinn]

Eh looks a little uninspired tbh. I wish they pushed the envelope compared to COD.

Really? I don't think you can ask for a more visually pleasing game in terms of Battlefield. Not to mention the varied gameplay possibilities.

 

[tilomite!]

Looks really good, I'll be there day 1.

 

[Kaako]

Oh yes. Believe me.

You damn well know that shit isn't gonna hold a candle to this game's graphics. xp

 

[etta]

They didn't day which Xbox One

Battlefield 1 would be the title to showcase a new Xbox with more powerful hardware...
Hmmmmm...

 

[k4n3]

well i was on the fence about WW1 but they sold me .... and did i see a guy in knight armor?!

 

[Vibranium]

Bad music choice (should have used an acoustic song or something) but the game looks awesome. Can't wait to see gameplay.

Someone tweet DICE to use more fitting music for their next trailers, please.

 

[G_Berry]

Reposting. OP should add the wiki links to the first page.

Such a MASSIVE amount of weapons, vehicles and battlefields to choose from. This game is going to be fucking epic.

 

[Alienous]

jblow not impressed

What's his problem? That it isn't pretentious enough?

 

[mxgt]

I don't think they could have picked worse music for that trailer if they tried.

 

[SerratedX]

“Seven Nation Army” by The White Stripes (The Glitch Mob Remix) is the song if anyone was wondering.

[Yonafunu]

Cool, where's the rest of it?

This trailer is bursting with color and varied landscapes.

I would't call anything in this trailer "bursting with colour".

 

[HMD]

That's a Henna tattoo, but we never had Henna designs on the face, not on males.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

$80 for the Early Enlister Edition? Hmm...


Hopefully they'll announce later it'll come with a remaster of Battlefield 1943 or something. Unless those DLC packs are substantial it seems like too much for too little.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

That Preorder shit is kinda annoying again...

Uninspired? Considering it's based on an actual war and doesn't seem to be a steampunk game based in an alternate reality, it looks pretty damn inspired.

 

[Granadier]

I haven't bought Hardflop yet.

Spoiler

Because it isn't DICE made

Exactly 😉

If you don't buy a DICE Battlefield*

 

[SteveO1683]

That looked really good.

 

[The Lone Courier]

$220 Collectors Edition, not sure if posted. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F80SU58/?tag=neogaf0e-20

For $200 bucks it should also include a messenger pigeon.

 

[Dangansona]

What a horrendous trailer on all fronts. It doesn't even excite me on the premise of a WWI shooter.

 

[DieH@rd]

Knights?

WW1 was one of the last major conflicts where medieval armors [more comonly only chest pieces] were used as protection.

 

[chrisPjelly]

Cool they're doubling down on historical WW1. Reaallly find the music obnoxious tho. Also wtf at Battlefield 1

 

[Kinyou]

That's a Henna tattoo, but we never had Henna designs on the face, especially not on males.

Perhaps it's a woman? The face is pretty androgyn

 

[rdytoroll]

Gonna get the deluxe edition. Preorders are not up yet in Germany though

 

[On Demand]

As someone who's played a shitton of modern shooters, I don't understand how you cannot be excited for this change. Setting, weaponry, vehicles, actual colors being used..

Now we just need great gameplay to go with it all.

I know right, seriously. We have enough future warfare and space type FPS games. WW1 is refreshing.


And i had no idea about the Harlem Hellfighters. Schools didn't teach us about this.

 

[WonkyPanda]

Amazing. WW1 is essentially the launching point for modern warfare, as well as the end of traditional warfare. Such a varied and intriguing war.


Shameless plug for Dan Carlin's coverage of WW1 in his Hardcore History Podcast (it's something like 10 hours long).

 

[Boke1879]

$80 for the Early Enlister Edition? Hmm...


Hopefully they'll announce later it'll come with a remaster of Battlefield 1943 or something. Unless those DLC packs are substantial it seems like too much for too little.

Activision and EA know they will get millions to pay for the $80 version over the standard now.

 

[DOWN]

Beta link? They are saying there's a link to sign up in the other thread

 

[Alienous]

WW1 was one of the last major conflicts where medieval armors [more comonly only chest pieces] were used as protection.

This is the game I never knew I always wanted.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Biplanes could be fun. That's the only thing that excited me though.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Did Dice said anything about the console's frame rate?

 

[Scotia]

If you guys had to reccomend one game, which one, Hardline or BF4?

I'm open to either.

 

[FullMetaltech]

That's a Henna tattoo, but we never had Henna designs on the face, especially not on males.

Maybe well see females in battle?

 

[dealer-]

Uninspired? Considering it's based on an actual war and doesn't seem to be a steampunk game based in an alternate reality, it looks pretty damn inspired.

They were being sarcastic.

 

[Surfinn]

Cool, where's the rest of it?



I would't call anything in this trailer "bursting with colour".

The first thing I thought when I saw the trailer was "wow, they're using a ton of colors in varied landscapes", especially in comparison to previous releases.

You really wouldn't call it bursting with color? I would.

 

[Xamtheking]

If you guys had to reccomend one game, which one, Hardline or BF4?

I'm open to either.

This isn't even a question
BF4

 

[Venom Fox]

TRAILER HYPE!!!!!!!

 

[Inuhanyou]

will it have a better campaign that the last one? If so i'll try it out

 

[Megawarrior]

$220 Collectors Edition, not sure if posted. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F80SU58/?tag=neogaf0e-20

These collectors editions with McDonald toy statues are getting higher and higher.Have a feeling it's because of the 20% discounts.

 

[Creaking]

So glad we finally have a big historic-ish war game again.

And a hearty lol tho those saying that World War 1 wouldn't be exciting enough.

 

[Liamc723]

What a horrendous trailer on all fronts. It doesn't even excite me on the premise of a WWI shooter.

You have to be blind.

I have no idea how anyone could watch that trailer and think it looked bad.

It's fucking bad-ass. So freaking cool.

 

[HMD]

Perhaps it's a woman? The face is pretty androgyn

Could be a Jordanian woman, that would be interesting.

 

[TheStruggler]

why does sony not allow EA access exactly? Seems like a good value.

 

[darkwing-buck]

How did Knight armor hold up against ww1 gunfire?

 

[gai_shain]

Every damn time

We already know who the protagonist is?
