Was so excited to see if they would announce the next Brother in Arms, and they let me down big time.

I wanted to go to Bastogne!
What the hell were they on when they thought up this game as the next Brothers in Arms.
They should just call it "Furious 4".:colbert:
[QUOTE=zeldar;30298166]That's like making the next BF game after BF3 an RTS because it will get more attention.[/QUOTE]

They really should've, BiA wasn't a massive franchise that would've allowed this game to piggyback on the name. It makes no sense.
"Get furious"
Yeah I'm furious alright.

Also, did they fucking sensor the swastikas?

TPS
[QUOTE=Headcrab54;30298271]..That's not my point at all. People recognize the series name, and they'll instantly be more intrigued in the game than if it was an entirely new IP.[/QUOTE]
Except that it completely goes against the idea of the series as a whole.
Why would they shit up a great franchise like this?
Gross.
[h2]I'm still fucking mad about this.[/h2]
What the fuck is this shit
Oh please don't freak out just because it's called Brothers in Arms, it looks like a fun game and if you forget the fact that it's technically a Brothers in Arms game then you'll be fine.
It would have been a better idea for them to just jump on the modern war bandwagon while keeping most of the game mechanics the same.

Yeah because we need another Modern Warfare game clogging up the market.
It's good to have a bit of variety. There's no need to judge the game before you've even seen any actual gameplay. It looks promising to me though. Then again I do tend to have an open mind when it comes to games.

Modern war? Oh please, what about Korea? I have not seen one mainstream game cover it in years.
hey look, its inglorious bastards!
So did Gearbox got rid of the military instructor that helped them made the "[i]most authentic world war 2[/i]" games because I want a continuation of Hell's Highway storyline, not this.
Electroshock to the balls, a chainsaw and silly nazis?
Oh, come on!
Jesus Christmas, at least drop "Brothers in Arms" from the title and just call it Furious 4 or some shit like that.
This defiles the BiA series. This is a step in the WRONG direction.
No real swastikas on the Nazi's arm bands.
[QUOTE=Swilly;30297812]Uuuuuuuuuuh what? They're still in Holland buddy.[/QUOTE]
I thought they were leaving there at the end of Bakers speech.

"Yeah were gonna have nazis in here but you know, no symbol because it might offend people."
Or probably because they want to market it in Germany.

It could have decent gameplay and I would still dislike this game for the sole reason that it has "brothers in arms" attached to its title, one i associate with gritty tactical shooting gameplay, not a lighthearted inglourious basterds rip off

Cause its not a war and the Chinese are involved :v:
Except for Fallout(who called it) no one wants to make China the enemy.
It's more or less because they're sensitive about it. A lot of shit has been changed in media recently due to China being sensitive about how we portray them, while they can basically portray us as the Nazis of WWII.
Oh look, another giant-framed guy with a minigun, that's original.
[QUOTE=nox;30323290]Oh look, another giant-framed guy with a minigun, that's original.[/QUOTE]
The trailer makes it a bit vague actually, unless there's a higher-res version to confirm it there's a chance it could be a M1917 or similar. Based on the beginning part of the trailer where you can get a side view it has the same one-handed pistol grip and box-shaped reciever, not to mention it appears the cylindrical area is too solid shaped for a realistic minigun appearance.

So either it's water cooled or a really, really shitty looking minigun with 40 barrels. I hope it is water cooled because that would actually be pretty damn original and make the character more fun to play.
It's a fucking minigun with like ten barrels.
Of course...

It would be amusing to all hell seeing a guy carrying around a 100 pound water cooled machine gun.
[editline]8th June 2011[/editline]
Or its a vickers. I can't tell.

Looks kind of similar
Yeah it's pretty much either a minigun with way too many barrels or an M1917 with a Vickers/PM1910 ribbed water jacket.
Either way. A fucking artist knows nothing about guns. Look at the drum mag, why does he have a belt if he's using a drum magazine?

Oh dear.
I want a new brothers in arms game, but this isnt it. I get the feeling they're calling it that just to get it attention and then they'll drop the brothers in arms bit as development progresses.
It looks ok, it's just not a BiA game. Which is a shame, because that would have been fucking awesome.
