Battlefield 1 Reveal Trailer, PC/PS4/XB1, Oct 21st [Up2: Screens, Info, Open Beta]

Awesome! So straight WW1, no alternate bullshit, yes?

Once people find out just how crazy and varied WWI was, they won't need to ask for an alternate universe setting.

We have armoured knights with flamethrowers fighting against sword-wielding cavalry while zeppelins float in the sky above dogfighting biplanes. It's a steampunk wet dream.
 
As someone who's played a shitton of modern shooters, I don't understand how you cannot be excited for this change. Setting, weaponry, vehicles, actual colors being used..

Now we just need great gameplay to go with it all.
 
JESUS that thing is huge.

Looks great but these trailers always do. I will keep my expectations a little lower at the moment though, because we've seen these vertical slices before and downgrades can sometimes follow.

High end PC version will probably look similar but will wait to see more actually gameplay first.

Hope they can finally nail a decent campaign with this game, I'm sure multiplayer will be great as usual. I like the setting though, it looks very interesting. Definitely looking forward to this.
 
I think people were more peeved by the needless cover. The original track would have been better received

Seven Nation Army would have fit a less "explosion" trailer more, yes. This cover fit the trailer far better though.
Also Glitch Mob is most definitely not dubstep.
 
WW1 was fucking insane:

"While overseas the Hellfighters saw propaganda intended for them. It claimed that the Germans had done nothing wrong to blacks, and that they should instead be fighting against the Americans who had oppressed them for years. These statements only made the Hellfighters even more devoted to the U.S."
 
That guy was hilariously evasive regarding horses, considering they were very heavily featured in both the trailer and the screens. Not sure what was up with that.

Evasive? He said he could neither confirm or deny they will be playable while furiously nodding his head. He confirmed it.

Seeing what happened with Battlefront 3, I think it's pretty safe to assume there will be no downgrade.
 
Wow. Just wow. I love it. I've been playing BF since the Secret Weapon days, and am very interested in this game. It seems incredible to me, and is exactly what I've been wanting after being completely burnt out on modern/near future shooters. I even like the name! Cannot wait for more screens, videos, and info.

Absolutely day -3 here. I'll be live on October 18th, playing on the PC.

Re watch it the second time it's asked if Horses are controllable/fight able. He states that it's a vehicle and that they have a purpose.

Wonder wether they'll have suicide horses? Horses strapped full of grenades and sent at enemy teams.
 
I'm not really into multiplayer but this game has my full attention. Looks absolutely phenomenal! DICE has to be one of the more underappreciated developers in the industry. The scale, visuals, and all around presentation they pull off no matter the hardware they're working on is always impressive. Their multiplayer components are always a blast as well (BF3 was the last online mode I put meaningful time into). AND they pump games out at a solid clip.
 
Yes, WW1 setting! I'm really interested to see how the campaign will look like.

Also no words on the (inevitable) Premium Edition to get all the "optional" DLC?
Thank god.
 
Day zero! Amazing trailer, wub wub part in the music didn't really fit well with the trailer footage. Still, nice work Dice.
 
If you actually end up not buying this game I will eat my hat.

I haven't bought Hardflop yet.
Because it isn't DICE made

Dude, you've been bitching about DICE and BF games for years now.
You're gonna buy and youre gonna love it!! XD

The beta is what is gonna have to convince me. If it's nothing but Conquest, I'm gonna be super leery. Surely DICE knows there's folks out there that want something other than Conquest 24/7 and will have those modes in for them to see.
