Battlefield 1 is a first-person shooter. It is set in the period of World War I, and will be inspired by historical events.

Those are really cool, would love to have an sci-fi WW1 game (what's there besides Iron Storm) but it seems the only fictional elements this game will have will be dindus playing an important role in WW I.

It even has mechs in it similar to those artworks.
If only Necrovision didn't fucking suck.
Considering the quality of the average indie FPS game on Steam it's far from "fucking suck".

Potatoland for the win.

I was checking this milsim group webpage, and they have a subforum for other games their members play and deem entertaining/potentialy interesting.

There is of course a thread for Battlefield 1, but the thread title reads - Battlefield 1 - Alternate WW1

:outrage:

I like how the cover is actually racist. A german gun - the black guy stole it after killing someone.

Actually you are the racist by accusing him of racism. He probably bought the gun from the german guy, ok?

Let's make it reverse. If it's bad in reverse, then it's bad here too.

Here we have a American black soldier. That's not bad per se, but remember that America seen little action in WWI, compared to European countries. Why not make it an Irish white soldier? Or a french white guy? Nope, it must be a black american, just because.

Now let's switch it up. Let's take some war that took place during the same period of time. Second Italo-Ethiopian War is fine. Italy vs. Ethiopia. Now tell me. What would be the outrage if the guy "representing" Ethiopia would be white?

Is it confirmed that he is a black american? Or just a random black guy?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_history_of_African_Americans

"(...) The U.S. armed forces remained segregated through World War I. Still, many African Americans eagerly volunteered to join the Allied cause following America's entry into the war. By the time of the Armistice with Germany on November 11, 1918, over 350,000 African Americans had served with the American Expeditionary Force on the Western Front."

Yeahhh, sure bro.. 350.000-370.000 soldiers seem small number to you? Not really. America saw plenty of action during WWI. Also, of course EA being an american company, they chose to focus on the american blacks during the war. Nothing wrong with that.

You're a fucking moron, Havoc.

I hope you never reproduce. Fingers crossed.
