the words grenade crossbow make me throw up in my mouth a little bit
ITS A FUCKING WW1 GAME, JUST CAUSE THERE WERE EXPERIMENTAL WEAPONS LIKE this doesnt mean that they should be added dice, fucking hell.
Sounds fun to me.
I love how the history snobs are coming in and whining about experimental weapons and shit.

Up.
Didn't dynamite crossbows exist in the western frontier?
Yeah they used grenade/explosive crossbows, or at the very least larger trench versions in WWI.

Literally a slingshot.

Yeaaaah you can just fuck off if the word "grenade crossbow" doesn't tickle your pickle

Yeah keep it authentic and have players only be able to use the maybe 12 weapons that were actually used during the war.
hey guys why isn't bf1 just an arma clone with WWI player models and only bolt action rifles???

Why isn't it though? To be completely honest I'd enjoy it a significant bit more if it was mostly bolt action rifles. Would be a nice interesting and refreshing take on the battlefield franchise.

Because most Battlefield players, shockingly, like playing Battlefield.

Yeah man, just stop any playstyle diversity right in its tracks. While we're at it, we can also remove half the planes and the heavy tank as they weren't used a great deal in the war.
BF1 is already pretty light on content as it is, especially compared to BF4's current state, and people like you want there to be even less.

it's also not a wwi simulator calm down

No it isn't, it's a game based around WW1 otherwise you would be able to look up the characters and find what they actually did in reality, not to mention that it'd be incredibly boring to spawn in a tank only to find that it barely works.

Considering the main campaign doesn't involve you sitting in your own shit for 17 hours a day and then barely sleeping the rest I don't think the games very realistic to boot
like if you're worrying about realism in a video game... why... would you even do that?

I wonder where you were when they did the same thing every part Battlefield games.
He's either baiting or trying too hard to hate the game.
I'm glad I don't have to pay for this new map. Good shit.
if realism is your boner I don't think the Battlefield games were ever for you.
It's an arcade shooter on a larger scale.
People getting annoyed by experimental weaponry in a Arcade shooter. How about you guys realize how ridiculous that is before you splurge into the comment section.
Freaking mad lads.
By the way, I think it's much cooler to see experimental weaponry in a game since y'know it's a game and since Dice already has experimented with WW2 experimental weaponry. Why not do so with WW1 type of experimental weaponry.
Also Giant's Shadow looks awesome.

[B][I]COMPLETELY ignores every Battlefield game ever[/I][/B]
Where were you history majors when WW2 was being bastardized to hell with Nazi sorcery and zombies for the last decade in games?
I loved that realism BF1942 brought into WW2 games, such as the highly acclaimed Jetpack™ that really showed what World War 2 was all about!

a realistic war game can never exist because most of the time in war you're sitting around doing pointless shit.
I've got no problem with the grenade crossbow in general. I mean BF1 is more of a game set in the idea of WWI than a WWI game. I just think it's going to take some careful balance, I can easily see this becoming a clusterfuck.

If they didn't add experimental weapons you'd only have bolt-actions
that wouldn't make a good BF game, would it?
It should be more realistic so you have to choose between sticking close to your team to survive the enemy attack, or staying away from them to protect yourself from their spanish flu
Nobody whined when Americans were using AN-94 Akabans to fight Iran :T
