Meanwhile, in an interview with Gamespot design Director at DICE, Lars Gustavsson (Lars Gustavsson) admitted that the Studio didn’t have to go to space futuristic setting, to find something new in the military. After all, modern gamers — as well as for the developers themselves — real guns undeservedly almost forgotten First world already seem to be sufficiently unusual and “fresh”.
By the way, working on Battlefield 1, the developers studied not only weapons with military equipment, but also the cultural and geopolitical conditions of the period. Gustavsson says that all empires involved in the First world war, was impressive and “greedy”. They were driven by a variety of motives, and they are something we plan to address in the single player campaign of the upcoming shooter.
