A sad end to a generation like that, these people went through so much shit I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes for 1 second, I give them absolute respect because I wouldn’t have the balls to charge into machine gun fire, storm a trench, sit in a trench for months, or weeks on end and I wouldn’t have the courage to serve in the military and fight a war so yeah they were born in the wrong generation because most died horrible deaths, everyone in Europe lost either a mother, a father, son or atleast a family member, entire villages and cities were wiped out

Do you think they wanted to be born in a generation where a world war happened and they had to serve in it, you can say this for all wars and imo it would still be a great disrepect for saying that tey were born in the wrong generation, because they had no control over when their moms were to give birth to them

    This is one of my favorite openings for a game.

While the rest of the campaign and multiplayer was good, this was the highlight of the game imo.

    Dream a Little Dream of Me was not published until 1931. This implies that the soldier in the cutscene survived the war, and is probably at his home back in the US about 14 years later, and is still suffering from PTSD. Also implies that the first mission is a past memory. And even that the reason he knows the names and year of birth of those killed in this battle may be because they were his friends who did not survive.

      Wait until you see the weapons and trench clubs soldiers made on the battlefield. I saw a collection of things like nail bats, maces, clubs, bayonets, knives, and much, much more at a museum near Fort Douaumont in Verdun. WW1 was particularly awful because every time soldiers crossed No Man's Land and reached the opposing trench, both sides would have to resort to close quarters combat. Look up "WW1 melee weapons" to see what I mean.

    What I really like about this first mission is that it destroys the myth that war is survivable, which is often indirectly supported by fps games.

  • @edwardnotthevampire
    @edwardnotthevampire Рік тому +55

    Despite its historically inaccurate guns, this is one of the greatest opening to a war game ever. It makes the point up front that you are not the action hero, you are one of the nameless millions bound for the grave marching into pure hellish bloodshed. You won’t survive. It is brilliant and very true to the unrelenting nature of World War 1 and war as a whole. The detail of the shell shocked German soldiers found in the fields is also brilliantly horrifying. They just stumble almost unaware to the world around them. Dazed in some twisted sense of peace. This of course is seconds before they are killed. Thank you dice, for this amazing and terrible opening.

    Probably one of the greatest openings to any shooter I have seen in a long time.
    Usually, there are scenes like this in other games that merely just flip the narrative up on its head in order for the player to continue playing along without dissonance. They are usually made out to be a one man army, and thus they feel they are because the game reinforces that fact.
    Not here.
    It's clear from the moment that you are thrown back into the flashback that you are not special. You are not the savior of mankind, you are not a super human, you are not the hero.
    You are nobody.
    You are just another soldier that is about to become a statistic in a field where millions of others share that same fate.
    You are not expected to survive.

    Battlefield 1 has the best attitude towards war in a video game showing war not as something righteous and noble for one’s country but as a disease something to be avoided with those who get caught in it never being the same afterwards and this I find admirable

    “What fallows is frontline combat. You are not expected to survive.”
    The epitome of WWI frontline combat. This opening scene and gameplay capture that better than any game I have ever played before.

    when i watch Passchendaele alot of the scenes definitely inspired this opening scene. alot of the action you see like the shovels and rocks and bayonets going into the mans hands have the same action scenes in the movie.

    Watching soldiers beat others to death with their bare hands truly shows the brutality of this war. No FPS game has ever had a more impactful intro.

    The end where the soldiers both lowering their guns hits me the hardest, it shows how tragic and unneeded war really is, none of the soldiers really want to kill each other they're just following orders that they are given, its sad humans killing other humans 😔

    3 years down the line and this still is one of the most realistic sequences in war video game history. Not just because of the graphics and detail but also because it shows that most soldiers didn't survive frontline combat.

    Every so often I go back to this game to play this opening. I try to see how long I can hold out as each each person (though a few deaths are obv scripted). Never before have I found myself going back to play a game's prologue so many times. The ending narration always gives me chills and even gets me to tear up a bit, without fail.
