    Aren’t there like automatic rifle carbines in the World War I Battlefield game? A thing not invented until late WW2? Then there’s all the weapon skins like having neon purple tiger camo. “Historically accurate” my ass.

      Yes. Every single player in bf1 has a secret prototype that 12 copies were ever made and they never saw combat.

      Because otherwise it would be lines of people 100 meters apart taking pot shots with single shot rifles whenever somebody poked their head over a trench.

      But obviously the inclusion of women and black people were the problem.

      They were compalaining because they included a person with an early prosthetic because that technology wasn’t available yet, while using guns with more more advanced technology.

        That actually bothered me to death, I thought we were gonna be running around with G98s and Mosins and Enfields popping at eachother from five and ten round boltguns, but they did dig deep for any excuse to just do the same automatic-rifle shit from their other games.
