Battalion 1944. New WW2 FPS
- Thread starter Rollins
- Start date
Nice to see they're going with dedicated servers. I know there's a lot of Battlefield players who would like DICE to make another second world war game so if DICE decide to go in another direction, this game could do pretty well.
Nice. I guess this will be my World at War 2 until Activision gets their s*** together.
Isn't it amazing that everyone was tired of WW2 and now everyone's begging for it again? Take your jetpacks and shove it.

Well, nothing that impacts gameplay, just cosmetics.
This shouldn't be ballsy. Not every fps game should have a leveling treadmill. In some it works fine, but it is overused in games IMHO.
Will Activision finally release WaW 2? it came out in 2008! Activision has a few teams making CoD games. Have one year be the modern warfare with jet packs and the craziest red dot thermal aimer, have the other be something different.... WWII, WWI, anything. Heck, make it a game between jungle tribes shooting bow and arrows vs. one another.
Yeah, it's early progress and Kickstarter quality and all, but let's face it. That video screams of a WWII shooter on PC from 2006.

We have previously reported about Battalion 1944, the World War II themed FPS currently on Kickstarter for crowdfunding.
The Unreal Engine 4 powered game crushed its base goal in less than three days and is now over 244% funded at £244K even without British developer Bulkhead Interactive providing stretch goals. These have been teased as “awesome” additions to the game, some of which have been added already to Battalion 1944 according to the studio.
Our team has been working day and night to produce these kickstarter stretch goals. When I say produce, I mean in 17 days we have added entirely new features to the game to show you, we haven’t just “said” we’ll do it.
We’ve actually gone and done it.
Some of the things we had already planned, but some of them we’ve gone away and designed them. We want you to see what you’re buying or see why you should raise your pledge. We want you to know how much we as a team and I personally care about this community having a voice. So in the coming days when we announce our stretch goals, we’re going to have a sprint to the finish line. The last few days of this kickstarter need to be huge, we need to push, tweet, share, back, like, pledge, raise, and show all the support we can for this game we’re all so proud to be a part of.
Joe Brammer, Executive Producer at Bulkhead, confirmed that the stretch goals will be announced this week and shared with the public shortly.
Brammer also answered other questions via Twitter about Battalion 1944. When asked if the game would run at 60FPS on consoles, he replied that PlayStation 4/Xbox One as well as the UE4 itself have limitation and it may be out of their hands.
Brammer then confirmed that the team is considering whether to release the game’s Early Access version on Xbox One via Game Preview.
Lastly, there will be aim assist on consoles.
We’ll have more on the multiplayer focused WW2 FPS Battalion 1944 shortly, so stay tuned.

I'm hoping so too.
But going by this, likely not.
Every other key shooter this gen has 60 fps MP... Halo, KZ, CoD, BF. Even offshoot shooters like PvZ and Splatoon are 60 fps. Gears Ultimate is too, and Gears 4 will be.
This game is DOA if MP is 30 fps.
