Cinematic 24 fps and with someone who can't play with a controller.

Cool way to do a tutorial level of sorts

Seems like a cool prologue, but I'll be curious to see how the final game walks the line tonally. There's a point at which things could become too serious for them to really live up to. I'm all for them trying, though.

The respawn mechanic where the current character dies and their name and birth/death shows up is pretty neat. This looks a lot more hectic than most recent shooters.

Lol that cringeworthy impatience on page one.
I never understand you guys, you tune in to a stream of something that you know will be on youtube within the next 30 minutes and then instead of just closing out and going on with your day until then...you bitch about it on the internet, you need it NOW! No boring talking! I need my fix!
Never change guys, never change.

You're almost as bothered about it all as we are! Funny that.

I don't mind the talking, I was just worried they were going to show that cinematic and nothing else. Wouldn't have been the first time.
The whole eulogy format?
Yeah, only the intro has that. The rest are set characters.

Honestly, this intro should be how the complete campaign plays. Every character can die, but that would be too bold I guess.

Bruh. O_O That cinematic looked amazing and was in-engine. DICE is putting in some insane work with Frostbite's renderer.

Actually thought it was a fucking brilliant mechanic
Shit is pretty harrowing and i'm glad the campaign looks like it's doubling down on that.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. That blows.
Looks like it was just for the intro. Thought it was a nice touch tbh.
No it isn't. I don't know how they got that vibe at all from what we've just seen.

May I ask, why is that "annoying"?

The MP will make you cry too at launch.
"We are the Allied forces. Seriously, fuck those Nazi bastards! (they were Nazis in WW1 right? right lets roll with that)"
Saw nothing indicating of playable Central Powers, disappointed really.
I really didn't get that vibe, like, at all from the prologue gameplay, especially with that ending scene...
All that dying in prologue is done in purpose.

They had that clip from the trailer of the two soldiers aiming at each other then lowering their weapons, but then they had a montage of the "War Stories" and all of them were from the Allied Entente forces point of view. Nothing indicated that this is gonna be a two sided story.

Really cool concept of having the player character overwhelmed and die, like they likely would in that situation, instead of just putting you in control of a super soldier like usual. I'm sure the rest of the game will conflict with the prologue, but I thought that was pretty cool.
Only thing bad about the presentation was the Xbox One performance... yikes.

How'd you take that as a "fuck the other side" view?

Hope they fix up that framerate for the Campaign because for me that was like taking a cheese grater to my eyes.
I have to say that looked pretty damn good, getting my hopes up for the SP. In the end everything is gonna come down to the setpieces and the environments, combat/graphics/audio look good.
The lack of SP showings at least until now is a bit worrying since there's only like 3 weeks left for the release but hey same thing happened with Doom and it turned out being the best SP campaign in years.

I think it was the stream, not the XB1's performance
Youtube vid of the gameplay. Better quality also.

I like the idea of the prologue, changing to a different soldier everytime you die. Whoever is playing is meh.Besides that it doesn't show much besides a cutscene Multiplayer should be the MAIN reason you buy Battlefield 1. Single Player is an extra still.

Please tell me how that blows.
It's cool for one level but you're telling me it would be fun to have 0 challenge because you have infinite respawns, and zero character development because everyone is expendable, FOR THE ENTIRE GAME?

Yeah, they could've really made this perma death mechanic into a neat innovative campaign. A mechanic that would actually be respectful to the conflict, but instead it's little more than window dressing for the hammy story that is to follow.
A shame really.
