Fuck yeah Battleships

Incomplete painted shit with overpriced shit droplets

Theyre gonna have to come up with lots of gadgets and such to make such a bland setting good

Nothing short of a new engine can fix the current terrible engine and floaty gameplay though, unless they go back to 1.5

Luciana · May 06, 2016, 03:47:48 PM

So the three DLC (They've announced) are the Hellfighter, Red Baron and Lawrence of Arabia packs.

The game is literally just announced and they're already announcing DLC? Classic EA.

Luciana · May 06, 2016, 04:00:31 PM

Lawrence huh? Should be cool. I also forgot we'll unironically be able to play as the Filthy Turks, and then the amazing German Empire on the other front.

They always do that with BF

No surprise really. And no I'm not saying it makes it okay.

So we can actually remove kebab?

BaconShelf · May 06, 2016, 04:03:19 PM

I like that they used Seven Nation Army in the trailer but I wish it wasn't as edited as it was

the song's good anyway.

We can get justice for the tragedy of 1453.

I mean naturally I'm sure it'll probably be more like a modern shooter type of deal, with a WWI skin, but it is nice that they're trying something different

It does look cool

Ásgeirr · May 06, 2016, 04:13:45 PM

Watched it muted the first time. Of course they would play some popular song, not like its cliche or anything

Swapping around different time-frames in the WW1 time span so they can do more without being limited

Theres also a lot of shit that happens in WW1

EH, its just a paint job

True Turquoise · May 06, 2016, 04:23:40 PM

>no gameplay

big sponge · May 06, 2016, 04:26:23 PM

It'll be hard to do a paintjob of a modern shooter in a WW1 setting.

Aircraft for example will function completely differently due to their lack of lock on missiles and AA will have to be done via flak emplacements. Two seater planes have already been confirmed as back gunners are present meaning that you'll have to rely on your teammates to be your counter measure.

BaconShelf · May 06, 2016, 04:29:52 PM

Also the bigger presence of melee, the different classes of tanks, absence of attack boats/ helicopters/ rpgs/ assault rifles/ LAVs and stuff like horses, artillery, battleships, airships, larger presence of bolt-action rifles and chemical warfare make it hard to just do a reskin

Coco · May 06, 2016, 04:30:19 PM

Looks pretty, but I'm not a big fan of the setting.

I can't tell if he's wielding a modified grenade or a modified rolling pin but either way it looks brutal.

Soldiers often fashioned clubs out of necessity due to trench warfare often leading to cramped melee fighting were their bayoneted rifles would have been worse than useless.

Stick some new horseshoes on and bam, good as new

Incan · May 06, 2016, 04:35:56 PM

I'm supervised they're trying to do different parts of the war, and really happy with it. Time to go over the top with Luci and Enig for the glory of Albion ;_;7

Hopefully they may even be bringing back Commander artillery strikes from BF2

It was really cool because you could actually disable the enemy commander's artillery if you went and blew it up, so there was a lot more going on than what BF4 gave us

If commander mode returns and gives artillery strikes, that would be sweet

So....a paint job? A plane's a plane.
