inb4 people complain about it even though they actually existed and took part in the war about as much as any other part of Battlefield 1.

But how will the PS4 handle it graphically???
They only really to have an incredible marginal role in the war. That and this;

Tried to smash vodka for Russian soldiers got it, hilarious.

I'm only complaining about the fact that it took them this long to implement russians while they had fucking americans from the beginning.

Yeah dude, 6000 women definitely deserve to be put into the game instead of the millions of men that died because equality, right?
Yeah you can't have anything in this game that might not be 100% historically accurate.
Now excuse me as I resurrect dead people with a syringe.

you'd have a point if it was all classes were women, but they're not. It's going to be exactly like all the other factions.
Say what you want, but I personally have no clue where DICE is going with this game.
The overall marketing of this game does not make me think of WW1 at all.
Imagine complaining about historical accuracy in a WW1 game with more automatic weapons than Vietnam.

women terrify me why'd they have to go make it a horror game
I would be interested in a research to see how much new female players has the Battlefield franchise gained.
Also why that dumb "I'm a bad ass bitch and I'm better than you" face with a shaved head and all ?
Look, Roza Shanina, a killing machine with 59 confirmed kills, decorated war hero, looking like your average everyday girl and not an American G.I. Jane caricature.
A more normal look would better show how the war was often fought by everyday people who took arms to defend their homelands and not trained US marines.
edit: I messed up these are from WW2. Sorry.

The use of female models is a genius marketing trick, this "debate" about historical accuracy is just great PR for them as it gets people to talk about the DLC and I doubt anyone is going to not buy it solely because it has women in it. Even if they don't agree with the historical context.
I mean I don't give a fuck wether the armoured knight looking support soldier running around and hipfiring a HUOT like nobody's business is a guy or a woman.

Pretty much this, they're checking all the right PR boxes with this.
Are those from WWII?
Anyways, I think they took inspiration from some pictures from WWI of the Women's Battalion, such as this:

Where they had shaved heads.

Regardless I'd still like character customization so we can have female characters with hair. Also moustaches on guys.

Dammit, you are right. My brain completely blocked and I forgot the new Battlefield was WW1 now and not WW2 anymore. Sorry for the confusion.

This would be game defining. Hell yes.

They should imitate Rising Storm 2 and add more appearance options when you rank up. Helps differentiate the new players from the old when one guy is wearing fresh clothes and the other has ripped clothing and "born to kill" type stuff written on his/her helmet.

imagine making a WW1 game but then completely misrepresenting it and not have it like WW1 at all. (not just talking about black germans or similar things either, lots of the game just doesn't feel WW1y)
hey wait thinking like this is probably what caused that

I imagine lice and so on was a bigger issue in the trenches of WW1 than in almost any field in WW2, so the shaved heads make sense.
I can't stand historical inaccuracy in Battlefield 1, whats with all these women and blacks

I don't know why they didn't just port that over from Battlefront, considering most of that game is ported over into BF1.

The millions of men that died are already in the game dying lol.

DICE's idea from the very start as far as I understand has been "A modern take on the WW1 setting" and I agree the game doesn't feel WW1 at all, it's more like an alternative reality where WW1 went on into the 20s, but honestly I'm not sure what you were expecting.
idk where this "its more like an alternate history" thing comes from tbh. yea there's a lot of guns that never made it past the testing phase but gameplay wise they really aimed for an end of war feel and they nailed that the best a video game could tbh

Who cares? Not every game needs to be realistic lmao
And if you're expecting realism from a Battlefield game clearly you never played one before

End of way feel? Can you clarify? IMO the game plays and feels pretty much exactly like any frostbite battlefield game.
Oh my god who the fuck cares. Why is this noteworthy?
