    On a side note, this is why having an officer is vital. Idrissa was right, and not because he was worried about his family. In the context of this game, they should absolutely have waited for some form of support. Any coordinated German counter-attack would have wiped them out.
    What started out as a company of soldiers whittled down to 3 men. That's a tremendous waste of life in the pursuit of glory. And in most circumstances, morale would have broken long before that.

      Not necessarily, they would have orders given to them already and any officer or nco present would be trained to act within the boundary of those orders or there duty. That being said they were a light infantry unit and traditionally most of there duties would have been to scout the enemy, attack small or equal size units and relay the information about large units. The only reason not to engage any enemy is if they have sniper support or they are heavy infantry or cavalry as they would stream roller you.

      They weren't that many senegalese tirailleurs in WWII, that was in the Great War. In fact, the biggest french colonial troops were coming from Maghreb. Especially from Marocco and Algeria, and this is one of the reasons that will lead to a discontent or antifrench feeling in the region after the war ended, eventually leading to the war of Algeria, which was very unpopular, and discredited the army from popular opinion, it is believed to be the dirtiest war France ever fought in (the war was based on the escalation of violence, massacres were committed from both sides, and the algerian civilians suffered a lot. Many of the french soldiers came back from the war with the sentiment of being nothing but murderers, and it impacted a lot the France of 1960).

    The French colonial troops especially the one you play here actually fought very well. Especially along the border during the initial invasion. But when the Germans took prisoners especially SS units, the black soldiers of France were executed. The ones that got away continued to fight the rest of the war. I'd say it was a historically accurate war story.

      The War Story about the Norwegian was definitely rewriting history though. That mission itself was an actual historical one (Operation Gunnerside), but in real life it was carried out by Norwegian commandos with help from the British. It would have been cool to play as the actual people who took part in the mission.

    This was my favorite War story in BFV, mainly because its the most action focused and its a more traditional "Soldier story" since its mainly about a group of soldiers overcoming their adversities rather than just one or two people.
    While I appreciate them giving some attention to the lesser known forces like the French Colonial troops, the way it portrays them being treated is simply incorrect. While I'm not saying they didn't face discrimination because they certainly did, during the war and post war, it makes out as if the French army treated it black soldiers like the U.S army did, which it didn't. The French army had used colonial troops for hundreds of years so they didn't have to "earn" the right to fight because they had been doing so for a long time and were not segregated from the white troops.
    I think a better story would have been to portray a unit of French soldiers, white and black, fighting to hold the German advance on Dunkirk and when the battle ends and they surrender, they stand tall knowing that they have done proud by themselves and their comrades, but as they are taken prisoner the white and black soldiers are separated with the white French soldiers being marched away into captivity and the black French soldiers marched away and executed. That would have presented a more stark picture of the attitudes of the time.

      @Darth Maul Technically they wouldn't be able to use the Lebel from BF1, as it is an older Lebel, chambered in 8mm lebel. By 1940, the french army had switched to 7.5 french, and the lebels still in use were substantially modified to accept the new cartridge. The rifle became much smaller, with a pityful three shot capacity, and was issued to non-combatants. The african troops fighting in the french first army at the time depicted in the game would have carried a mix of M1 Garand, M1 Carbines and Mas 36. Occasionnaly you would find the odd Berthier or Lebel, but only on non essential staff, like cooks or artillery gunners.

    Man that comment section is salty. Yes, the French had colonies, yes they did some despicable things, yes, they had colonial troops, some of whom fought bravely, some of whom were cowards, some of whom fought willingly, some of whom fought reluctantly, but all of whom France was lucky to have in their fight to retake the mainland. Were French people at the time racist ? Yes, up to a point. Was this something remarquable at the time ? Not really. In fact, racism or just xenophobia has been present in most people for most of the history of Mankind. The "Us vs them" mentality. But quite frankly, I do not see the problem with playing one of these tirailleurs in a video game

      1. White soldiers and black soldiers both did labour at bases
      2. Many soldiers would rather that then actually being at the front lines dying
      3. Black and white soldiers fought alongside each other, France has always respected the tiraileurs and never thought of them as a waste and chucked them to do the dirty work
      4. Captured Soldiers thought of America as being more racist than France

      That's not totally true papa stalin. During 1944 and even 1945 Germany was producing A LOT of planes. They made underground factories which were more productive than the surface factories. It was truly impressive. The more factories the USAAF and the RAF destroyed, the more underground factories popped. What Germany was lacking by the end of the war was simply experienced pilots, like Japan. And of course the lack of petrol. So in 1944 the Luftwaffe was giving her last sigh but they could still fight.

    Im reading these comments and i have no faith in humanity. Battlefield is a game loosely based on actual events, they didn't happen exactly like the story is portrayed but they did happen.
    Look it up France, UK, Belgium, and U.S. have always used African, African American Asian, and Arab soldiers in their armies for years. They treated them like dirt and did not speak of their battlefield achievements because they were seen as beneath them and unworthy. Look it up even today decades later these countries are now giving these men the medals they deserved now that the truth is coming out.
    Also alot of the soldiers in the colonial army were forced to fight a war for a country that occupied, pillage, and raped them routinely. So to the guy who brought up rape by colonial soldiers, it goes both ways. I dont condone rape but in every army there are rapists and murders among the ranks, it not just limited to a certain group or country.

      So no, the Algerians were not conquered or massacred... on the contrary, we beat their executioners, and created a country to welcome them and give them a home (and again, it was not a country, but rather a French region).

And a lot of Africans continue to enlist in the French Foreign Legion nowadays; it's because their comrades, the French army, and the people of France respect those who become "French by spilled blood", their colors, origins or religions don't matter, as long as they respect the French Republic ( and I can tell you that black "légionnaires" are the most patriotic and nationalist French that exist ).
      As for the role of Africans in the French army in the two world wars, while it was honorable, especially coming from people who had never seen metropolitan France, they didn't play a role that bigger ( even if they have my upmost respect ).
      In WW1, death rates in colonial regiments were inferior compared to those of the regular infantry regiments. The colonials didn't fight in the winter, and they only represent 3% of the total number of French Killed In Action.
      In WW2, they played a bigger role (it's one of the reasons France granted sub-saharan countries independence peacefully in the 1960's), but most of the fighting was made by regular French infantry regiment ( 100,000 French of the regular army killed in 1940 only ) and resistance movements. Even if the actions of colonial troops proved decisive in some crucial allied battles ( Monte Cassino and the moroccan "goumiers" ).
      Mali asked for the help of France in 2013 because jihadists allied with touaregs were taking over the country. If the French wanted to "erase" these people and their history, they wouldn't have called.

    I sure hope players don't actually believe this to be accurate. The French were not that racist especially since they were desperate to reclaim their country. In fact, they were even more welcoming towards black units than the Americans, such as the famous Harlem Hellfighters during WWI. Everyone shared the same tasks and no one really bothered to segregate units as it was a waste of time and resources. Germany's execution methods were exaggerated. Yes, they did tend to execute prisoners, but that was only when it was impossible to hold them prisoner or if they happened to be done by fanatical Nazis. When they did execute prisoners, it was not based on racial issues like they portrayed in the campaign. The colonial forces did not get to participate in major parades in history books because they happened to be stationed in different areas and therefore, were too far out of reach to join in on time.

      @@DrDalekWhom I know it doenst have to be realistic, but its despicable to simply lie about the French Army being some sort apartheid organisation to put forward a left wing political message. This just shits on the lives of the hundreds of thousands of French soldiers who died in ww2. The Africans in the French army were treated like equels and while there was some racism sure (humans are naturly racist) there was no censoring of black people from photograps and their legacy in ww2 was fully honered. But well its dice and they have gone fully radical socialist in the last couple of years, just like al the sjw cancer in the gaming industry. Stopped playing for that reason.

    Hard to imagine they established the French as not as discriminatory as others to the Harlem Hell fighters in BF1 and then do a complete 180 and make Charles De Gualle and the French Army out to look like they whitewashed how events went down
