Rewriting the Heavy Water missions performed by Norwegian and British operatives into a single Teenage Girl and her Mother.
Does DICE at any point during the game say the mission is a true story?
Rewriting the French/Senegalese relationships as one far more racist than it was in reality.
Okay so they were still racist, but just.....not
AS racist as the game depicts? Well I am so glad the 1930's and 40's racists have you to look out for them man otherwise people might think there was racism in the
30's AND 40's. But that would just be silly right? Seriously though this is such a weird nitpick to make. Its 1940's Europe. I am sure there was plenty of racism to go around and you trying to complain about them being
too racist instead of the right amount of racist is just absurd. There are better hills to die on my firend.
Rewriting the SBS as recruiting prisoners/criminals.
Can't really say much here since I am not a historian of the SBS, but if they wanna toss in a wrinkle like that in their story to make it more interesting then I'm fine with it personally.
Game Breaking bugs and glitches
I never said their weren't any bugs or glitches. I just said a few posts ago actually that I have a shitload of complaints about the game. Nice try though.
Developers calling fans "uneducated".
Developers openly mocking their fans at large scale events.
Well when you have "fans" flooding Reddit, Youtube, Twitter and various other outlets with sexist and racist bullshit then yeah I would say they have every fucking right to call those people uneducated and mock them. People like that deserve to be mocked. I highly fucking doubt they are trying to mock the average joes that are complaining about turret speed or bombers getting to nuke the team at the beginning of matches. They are mocking the idiots who are throwing tantrums because there are women in their video game and are trying to use "historical accuracy" as a shield to hide behind when really they just don't want women in the game.
Now am I saying that ALL the people complaining fall under that category? Of course not. But there are
ALOT of them and
THOSE are the people that DICE is making fun of. "
Fans" that post such gems as these for example...
Notice how they all have plenty of upvotes as well despite their content. So you trying to insinuate that DICE is trying to mock their fans doesn't hold water. They are specifically mocking those kinds of people. So no those are not valid complaints.
Pushing for unauthentic clothing/customization (katanas, prosthetic, bright blue face paints and shabby trench coats)
Whoa
WHOA WHOA WHOA You are telling me that there is non-regulation weaponry in
MY Battlefield game? Well now they have gone too far!!!
I mean I never in all my years would have thought DICE would be so brazen as to put such things into their game!
Oh wait they had a Bipod knife in BF4
Well okay yeah they had a bipod knife, but its not like they ever had any other joke weapons in their games!
Oh wait they had hidden wine bottles in BF1
Okay fine they had joke weapons, but we never got fucking swords before!!!
Oh wait....
Battlefield has ALWAYS had a crazy amount of weird and unorthodox weapons in their game going back over 10 years so you and others suddenly deciding that NOW its time to complain about it as if its never happened before is not gonna work. So just fucking stop.
I am not even going to get into your equally ridiculous "Unauthentic clothing" complaint. All I will say is that its a fucking video game that people play online and DICE needed to find a way to to make money off of Micro's so BOOM. Character customization. It took me a whopping 30secs to realize thats what they were doing.
- despite the developers stating:
All that tweet tells me is that they are gonna be just authentic enough to make it somewhat believable, but that they still plan on making the game fun.
They succeeded. Not sure what else you want me to say about that.
All that and more which you fully well know, but you are deciding to ignore and instead boil it all down to a disingenuous strawman claim of "Lol they just hate womynz/minorities".
I'm sorry, but the title of the thread is fucking "Genderfield V: The Saga Continues" and there have been sexist comments like the ones I provided above on pretty much every piece of media DICE has released since this game was announced.
So I am really sorry if I don't believe that BS for one second.
