The one criticism in that thread that rings true, though? It’s completely fine, for example, that the developers wanted a more “authentic” experience with BF1 and have since changed their mind with BFV. I don’t even have any issues with this laundry list of GamerGate-style criticisms. BFV won’t be selling map packs anymore, so having a wide variety of wacky cosmetics is the trade-off we can expect. I have no issues with Braveheart-esque dudes in kilts, or people running around with katanas. To be clear, I have zero issues with DICE introducing female soldiers, amputee soldiers, or any combination thereof. Second, though… ugh, WW2? Why? What’s the point? If you don’t believe me, here is 21 minutes worth of Battlefield trailers. And what the hell was with that “fire twice, then immediately reload” crap? Some people have complained about the Michael Bay-ness of the whole thing, but Battlefield has always had that element. There’s a part halfway through when you see a squad of soldiers running away, and I was trying to figure out if they were on my (the viewer’s) team or not. Not in the “they got a British female amputee in my authentic WW2 sim!!1!” way, but in the very standard “this is an incoherent mishmash of themes” way. I am facepalming over here a little bit, but not necessarily for the reasons you might expect.įirst, that trailer is just bad.
