Definitely a trailer, but Michael Condrey mentioned game modes, special guests, news and more - so we should all have a lot to talk about!

Doubt it
Even Battlefield 1's reveal trailer had gameplay
And considering that's the game to beat at the moment...

I wonder if DICE will make a WWII follow-up to Battlefield 1?
This is more like what a new Day of Defeat would look like.

If they opt for the full snowflake customisation program, I won't be picking it up. Hopefully they realise that this game needs immersion to succeed. Hold those the purple camos for the 2018 game.

I'm pretty excited, i play very often black Ops 3 such a great game but the supply drops system is horrible, I'm going to start saving money for the game i still remember people getting mad when world at war came out they were bored of too much WWII games haha times changes.

WW2 would really benefit from desrtuctible environments and I don't have faith this game will feature that.
So I'm really not interested if it plays very similarly to Medal of Honor, which was released 15 years ago. Where would the progression be.

Hope so.
This is exciting because a WW2 COD game may have enough impact to sway their or EA's decision.
Out of curiosity I do wonder how much BF1 has changed Activisions line up on eras in COD games.

so you want to see Poland get invaded while everyone stands around, and you want to see France waving the white flag?

I love Pokken!
You are going to get D-Day and Stalingrad for the 156th time and you will like it!

Anyone think they will include something with concentration camps in the campaign? Something like we see in Band of Brothers. No Russian comes to mind, and that definitely shocked some people.
Anyways, can't wait to play a triple-A WW2 single player campaign again. MoH:AA was my favorite FPS back when it released.

you know the Nazis had jetpacks, right? it could happen
everything comes and goes in an endless cycle.

Yeah, but why only this? This war was so long and diverse.
I think there is a potential for good campaigns there. One could end with escape via Romania to GB, and the other with Dunkirk to have some sort of good ending. And you could go through France twice in both directions to have mandatory D-Day and what was after in the game.

It's nearly been a decade since a WWII COD. In the meantime future warfare has become stale. It's a cycle.

Same here.
MOHAA is the game to top in the WWII genre with Call Of Duty 2 a very close second.
Nope

It's been nearly a decade since the last AAA FPS WWII game. Once something is away for that long people will start to miss it. People are also excited to see what that war could look like with modern hardware.

I'm so hyped for this. I didn't like the modern CoDs besides MW 1 so this will be the first CoD in ages for me. I just want Toujane so I can chill 24/7 on there like I used to in CoD2. Make it happen fam.

I hope that semi-auto and bolt action rifles get priority over SMGs and LMGs.
I never got tired of WWII. Battlefield 1943 was my favorite FPS last gen.
Also, they need to still let you play as a woman in multiplayer despite the setting. Battlefield 1 made the mistake of not doing so.

I may pick this up if it's got a length decent length single player campaign. PC has got a few decent WWII multiplayer focused games.
I lasted 15 min's with Battlefields Beta, The vast majority of troops in WW1/2 used rifles rather than SMG etc. I love the era to bits, but I want it to have some sort of realism to it.

Treyarch would do it
Naw. I want a Soviet campaign like CoD2 and the building collapse at the end of the Demolition level.

Even if it's DLC.

I'm totally hyped. If it's a really grounded interpretation of the WWII this will be the first CoD game I'll play since Black Ops 1 (everything went to shit after this one).
The modern and futuristic overstayed its welcome and I'm installing classic CoD, CoD 2 and some MOH just for a WW2 extravaganza this weekend.
(Man, I still remember the goosebumps I had in that MOH Spearhead opening scene, with the jumps in the occupied Normandy).

I'm doing the same thing lol
Medal of Honor Allied Assault and it's expansions, as well as Call of Duty 1 & 2 are my favorite World War II games.
Here's hoping that Call Of Duty: WWII can equal or even top them

I don't mind the Soviet campaign as such. And this one you posted was indeed awesome. But what I don't like is that it is treated different than German side of the war. If we can't get German campaign because it is "wrong", why do we get Soviet? But I guess this is not the place to discuss this.

I'm curious how linear the levels will be. COD 2 and 4 had some areas that were pretty open but then I played the Treyarch Black ops games which are extremely linear pretty much entirely proceeding down a corridor or an area blocked off by debris guiding you one way. I want a bit more openness in this game.

If we're getting Normandy, I just want a tonne of soldiers on screen... like a tonne.
It was the largest seaborne landing in history... it could at least look like it.
Same with market-garden, I want to see a shitload of chutes.

Agreed.
For it's time, Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault had an incredible number of NPC's on-screen, but it's extremely dated now and compared to the actual landing/assault, it was pathetic.
Medal of Honor: Frontline was far worse - due to the limitations of the PS2, it looked like you were storming Omaha Beach with like 8 friends lol

I don't know about that - I'd prefer them not compromising the aesthetic realism of a WWII game. If they decide to augment the visuals with strange weapon camos or outfits then sure, but otherwise that just seems like it would undermine the effort put into achieving visual and audio authenticity.

Women fought for the soviet army in Stalingrad. If the russians are in (hopefully), then they could put women in the multiplayer without breaking the realism.
Unlikely. Cod reveals are usually just singleplayer trailers possibly with a few second tease at the end for multiplayer.

Here we go. Today's the day. Looking forward to this. Back to boots on the ground since all that AW booster jumping across the map bollocks came on the scene. First time I've been excited for COD in 4 years.

If they're going to have killstreaks, customisable guns, and all other kinds of anachronisms, then they should include women as well.
