I'm skeptical that you would turn your back on BF that quickly, but let's wait and see.

I will just keep playing BF4 and CoD4. Zero interest in a WWI game.

Cmon man, this is like the opposite of the future warfare you so dislike. No lasers, no jet packs

Reddit will uncover everything before 3:00 PM.

ETA: Available 10/18/2016. Set in alternate history WWI. I'll wait until I see everything, but so far I'm out on this.

Nothing can begin to describe how sad I am right now. This trumps the 2011 thumping in the BCSNC.

Shooters were all the same.

"Switch things up."

Developers switch things up.

"Stop giving us that future crap."

Developers delve into WWI.

"I'm not playing that old crap."


Developers:






Goes back to our first complaint being a bunch of bullshite.

Sweet. Back in Feb I mentioned that I hoped they would think outside the box and come up with something original like an alternative history. I was thinking more along the lines of Steampunk setting and weaponry but I bet this wont be that far off.

If it was a made up unit, MAYBE you'd have a point. The Hellfighters are a part of US history and I don't see what's so SJW'ish to include them in their WWI game.
