    They need phosgene attacks where you thrash around on the ground for like an hour suffocating with the inside of your lungs burned out before you die, unless you put on the jinky French gas mask that requires you to urinate on it before using it to cover your mouth.

    Interesting, Will there be an 80% casualty rate via artillery bombardment?

    I suppose because Star Wars Battlefront had the Hoth battle in it which was very World War I inspired with trenches...but no one ever uses the trenches in the game. World War I seems very boring if it is done accurately.

    I've played battlefield 1 time, and this might have well be the case for me. I would just spawn and die.

    I do love a good WWII game, curious how WWI would be.

    Lately for FPS and squad play I've only been playing SQUAD.

    I haven't touched BF in a long time (might be installed).....and haven't purchased a COD since COD4.

    Tank Battles will be freaking epic, when you have a Mark V speeding along at 5mph:

    vs a German A7V, max speed a paltry 4mph:

    Who needs turreted guns? Sponsons rule.

    Also can't forget air battles where airplane engines have significantly less horsepower than modern riding lawnmowers.

    I hope so. Tired of modern + futuristic route most shooters are going for.
    And its a little too soon to go back to WW2.

    Bad Company 2 was the best.

    Waiting for Battlefield: American Revolution.
