WW2 was overdone 10 years ago, but it hasn't really been done in years. Yeah, there's rising storm, but I want somebody else's take on it and I'd like to see missions besides D-Day and the liberation of Berlin. Maybe the French resistance?
Looks pretty good. Hope it lives up to what it wants to be.
Something more character focused and more morally grey is what I want. Plenty of options for that in WWII. Because despite the evil nature of the Nazis no one was innocent. Playing as the Germans or perhaps the Finns would be interesting. Maybe with a Polish or French or other resistance elements.
WWII is always presented as so black and white and with way too much patriotism. Let's see something a bit more realistic and how it affects actual characters instead of flat archetypes.

Been waiting for a new WW2 fps, hope it's good.
Thanks for sharing and definitely going to take a look at what is up with this.
Multiplayer only....
Still interested but damn that killed me.
Looks promising
Sick of Multiplayer - Sick of playing the Allies - Gimme the damn Germans!!!

I have to admire their commitment to authenticity and detail...but I hope they don't forget about a story. And no single-player campaign?
Also this:
There are many more sides of the story to tell than just those of the Allies (particularly the US and British) as well as other theaters besides Europe.
Multiplayer only is a good excuse to cut down on budget. They don't have to focus on character development if they stick to the basics. It is sadly the way games are going, as of late. EA's Battlefront is amazing with this concept lately. I think of Star Wars: Battlefront 2 and think to myself, "This has a great story." I think of the later installment and I think, "It could have been so much more."
I am sick of multiplayer games. I want to be a solitary gamer and I don't want to hear bros over the headphones... The Call of Duty bros are the utter bottom on the barrel.
Agreed (and I don't play CoD) if I want the multiplayer experience, then I'll play the plethora of games that provide only that, otherwise, give me a great single player story with great gameplay!
Off topic, but that sounds like the Original Trilogy and TFA. ^o^

Ha, the only ones I know of censoring WWII in the European theater is Germany. They have laws forbidding the display of Nazi imagery.
Nothing bad happened...
Dont get me wrong, I'm not pro Nazi, but censorship of history is stupid. Im just sick of how WW2 games portray the nations involved. 'Baddies' or not, the German soldiers managed to pull off some seriously difficult missions (like their capture of the Maginot Line via glider attack). The crazy shit Otto Skorzeny got up to would make for one hell of a campaign. Also the French have not been done much, although a campaign of Run, Hide, Collaborate would be DLC at best.
I'd like to see more war games with Dog Fights and I'd like to see them take on the holocaust. Out of all of the WWII Games, none of them touched the holocaust. I suppose while they're at it, they should show Japanese Internment Camps.
I don't believe that applied to games. I think it only applies to glorification and public IRL display.

Those are some nice graphics, especially the flash effects from the shots. I hope it's going to be good.
Fighting in the Eastern Front would be cool and having Submarine battles. Or fighting in the NAZI loot caves/houses and such would be cool.
Sub battles would be hard to do tho. Do you want everyone on the server to have their own sub ( 2 teams ) or would you want two teams and they each have one sub with one person to steer the ship another on lookout and the rest just stand and fire the torpedoes. Having just two teams would be boring, because if someone took the helm I am not gonna wanna stand and fire off torpedoes.
Nope, it applies to games to. The original Wolfenstein was banned in Germany.
Well then.
That's shitty lol
