But because it's a 3A shooter, it's going to be nothing like real WW1 combat. Because that's "too boring".

FPSs are almost never like real war. Everyone wants to be a hero. Healing is too fast. Bullets almost always fire where you want them to. Grenades blow up people but not structures. Tanks wind up in the middle of battles. Pilots hug the treeline. Every day is heated battle and every night is more heated battle. Artillery is conveniently nonexistent. It's really a matter of finding the least inaccurate representation.
I want to improve.

If DICE made the game historically accurate, the killfeed would be nothing but:

Clevernickname died from Cholera
Cod666vagina died from Cholera
EyelessJim died from Exposure
Steve died from Mortar
Totallynotanadbot died from Cholera

Props to DICE for the cheeky name, though. Battlefield 1914 would have sufficed, but fuck it, let's call it Battlefield 1 and be clever.

Eh, it's possible to have a fun, yet still slow-paced WW1 shooter.

Reality 70001-O sounds quite familiar. If it's what I think it is, I'm saddened that a certain revival of the Confederacy wasn't mentioned :p

Press Y to observe reconnaissance photos of the enemy trenches, which have poor resolution, and are in black and white, so you can't tell the difference between a man and a tree.
