10 Things Battlefield 1 Already Does Better Than Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare

5. A Focus On Realism

No more jetpacks, no more seeing through walls, no more sending out a flying drone to scout an area, no more fancy guns with extreme attachments. Battlefield 1 will be going back to what started it all: Heavy guns and brutal warfare.

Of course the game isn't going to be entirely realistic, as truthfully no one wants precisely that. You'll still be a one man army able to mow down opposing armies.

It's the fact that Battlefield 1 will take place in a war that actually happened. Being able to go back and study the war, which DICE has certainly done, will make the game feel like an accurate retelling, and not a fantasy. Granted some of the imagery shown so far is very escapist and plays into the fact it's still a multiplayer shooter, but World War I was brutal, the trenches were a nightmare and mustard gas was absolutely terrifying.

Seeing the effects of these things in the game will be unsettling, it will, but it's a tribute to what the men and women who fought this war went through. It'll be nice to have boots on the ground and not running along a wall for a change.
