All soldiers did in world war one was stand in trenches and suicide run to the enemy's trenches.

lrn 2 trench warfare

Because sitting in trenches while being bombarded with artillery shells and mustard gas doesn't make for fun gameplay.

I don't much care about the war; but I'd love me a nice shoot em up with those old school planes.

I guess there are a few WW1 games out there, but the only I could think of were flash games. Warfare 1917 is kind of fun; it's a flash game
http://armorgames.com/play/2267/warfare-1917

The gameplay would be all
>stay entrenched
>come out to run into a machine gun
>get mutilated or die
>change character
>die again

Plus unlike WWII there aren't many hollywood movies about it, so game devs with the little imagination they have couldn't just ripoff save private ryan and get away with it.

Trench warfare bro

Necrovision and its prequel Lost Company

>In addition to German soldiers, Simon soon finds himself fighting supernatural forces, including vampires, demons, and zombies found in locations varying from the battlefields of World War I to secret laboratories and underground caverns.
holy fuck awesomesauce

Ugh, the extremely boring trench warfare shit didn't even happen for that long and only happened in certain parts of Europe.

There's other, more interesting, parts to WW1

>>72994714
Red Baron 3D, bro, I lost an entire summer to that when I was a lad

Also, I think there haven't been any WWI games mainly because it's not fun to be shot in the stomach, have a "doctor" come over and basically bless you, then grunt for four hours until you die in agony

now, if you ask me, WWI is absolutely ripe for some sci-fi elements to make a great setting for an awesome game. i mean, i personally really like heavy metal (the magazine), not just because it's full of tits, and i remember reading one comic where the Germans had assembled a steam-powered warbot. THAT shit is badass.

No way to make your character "the good guy"

Didn't The Darkness JUSTLISTENTOTHERYTHMOFTHEHEART have a WW1 scene or two? Can't remember, but.. I think so?

>>72994870
Sort of.

>>72994839

Also this OP.

English fought for keeping their slave-based Empire, Germans because "LET'S CONQUER EUROPE" and Americans got in the war way too late.

It can never just be an awesome Trench Warfare game, or an RTS?
Has to be corrupted by demons and shit to make it interesting.

Toysoldiers arcade game for xbox 360, thats WW1 even though its just toy's but its still an addictive game and it has planes you can fly and shoot

And what if WW1 never ended?

World War 1 was "boring" compared to WW2 for game developers.

Also IMO is was the most brutal war to date. Some sick shit happened in that war.

Well there is a WW1 mod being made for Company of Heroes

>>72994626
WW1 was much less compelling. There wasn't the same sense of Good Vs. Evil that WW2 had.
Not to mention most of the war was a war of attrition and that hardly makes for fun gameplay.

>>72994797

Like the western and eastern fronts where the entire thing was fucking fought and started after the german's push on france which was months into the war?

Learn modern fucking europe bro.

America didn't want to get involved in that shit because we already had our WWI

>>72995175
America didn't want to get into that shit because it was REALLY profitable.
The US was supplying both sides of the war and making a killing on it.

Why isn't there a game about Indian wars? Would be awesome to kill warriors and women and children.

>>72994797

Do you really think Americans would want to play as an Austrian or Russia? Shit's boring

Have the game set in late 1918 as the Allied forces try and catch up with the retreating Germans.

>>72995299
seconded

>>72995299
Same reason you don't kill children in the "No Russian" mission in MW2.
They still don't find that shit acceptable.

>>72994870

It sort of had a WWI level. Really it was a vision of Hell, which was stuck in the (warped) time period of WWI when the Darkness first entered Jackie's family.

WW1 was mostly trench warfare which wouldn't necessarily make for good gameplay. There's no hollywood movies to rip off such as Saving Private Ryan. In fact Stephen Spielberg created pretty much the game that started it all for WWII games, MoH.

Americans also didn't get involved till late in the war, and were pretty much supporting both sides until they decided to join with the British, and as others have said there really wasn't any 'evil' sides you could set up.

There was actually more than trench warfare, its just that the trenches are all everybody focuses on.

>>72995301

err.. yeah, people really hated being russians in call of duty. we all know how badly that series bombed.

You do know that the English banned slavery in the 19th Century right? They also enforced it on every country, closing international shipping lanes, and bombed cities with slave markets.

>>72995589
The trenches are what made the war what it was.
Obviously the whole fucking war wasn't fought in trenches, that's not even possible.

>The dry chalk of the Somme was especially suited to mining, but with the aid of pumps, it was also possible to mine in the sodden clay of Flanders.Specialist tunneling companies, usually made up of men who had been miners in civilian life, would dig tunnels under no man's land and beneath the enemy's trenches. These mines would then be packed with explosives and detonated, producing a large crater. The crater served two purposes: it could destroy or breach the enemy's trench and, by virtue of the raised lip that they produced, could provide a ready-made "trench" closer to the enemy's line. When a mine was detonated, both sides would race to occupy and fortify the crater.

Dude, you clearly don't know anything about America. Black people will fucking NEVER let this country forget that and the notion that Americans aren't painfully aware of this past is laughable.
Please, in the future, don't talk about things you have no experience with.

>People using LOLTRENCHWARS as an excuse to why there's no WW1 games.

I'm pretty sure WW2 wasn't that fun IRL but the games make it fun. I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to make a fun WW1 game as well.

also, OP. check out Darkest of Days. I think there's a WW1 segment in that game

The entente was a WW1 RTS with no caps on anything, 100 barracks producing infantry every second? YES
400 workers tilling 1 farm? YES
An impenetrable ring of howitzers 3 rows deep protecting your base? OH GOD NO

I lost my CDs and there's like no torrents anyware

>Implying The Battle of The Somme is indicative of all battles in WW1.

Play the WW1 mod for HL2. Its pretty fun and tense. Running out of a trench with the command spamming "GO GO GO" then diving into a ditch with fucking artillery everywhere.

Tense as fuck. However its fun as hell setting up an MG then mowing down enemy players.

>My face when America didn't do jack shit in WW1

It was a really terrible war. And as someone mentioned theres no sense of good vs evil. Theres no reward. It would be really insulting to make a current gen game on it.

>>72996506
Everyone always thinks of it like that.
All the battles in Africa and Egypt and India and shit are ignored entirely.

>>72995943
They more or less sped up the German surrender. But beyond that they pretty much did what they did in world war 2; get into the fight when the other powers had already pretty much won.

Don't mind me, just ruining your life

For it to be fun, you'd have to play as a German or Canadian almost by necessity. Sure, the rank and file might have been killed off by the thousands, but shock troops on both sides did some pretty amazing things.

Make it play more like a first person adventure game that as a shooter. Most of the game is spent sneakan, grenadan or survivan.

Step 1: Read Storm of Steel
Step 2: Make it into a game

There aren't many WWI games because americunts didn't do shit in it and therefore can bloat about it. They joined the war just as it was ending and both allies and germans made fun of their shitty "soldiers".
Personally I would love a game set on it.

>>72996826
Do you, like me, enjoy taking a floundering German nation, maintain a two-front war, and still manage to somehow develop helicopters by 1943? If the answer is yes, then buy it right now.

Also, I converted all of Ireland, Greenland, Belgium and Luxembourg to National Socialism. Feels good man.

>>72996155
Problem is that dreadnaught era combat basically consisted of shooting at a speck on the horizon for 3 hours straight.

Compound that with the fact that outcome of Jutland was basically inconclusive. You'd have to completely butcher it to the degree that it would really have nothing in common with the real battle except the name to make it any fun.

I mean like Battlefield Midway, but without subs or aircraft, and in a battle of almost 200 ships, 4 capital ships get sunk then everyone goes home.

I don't think it would have much of a story as explaining ww1 is pretty confusing.

It was basically, some country goes "were invoding your country" then that countries ally invades that country then so on so forth until everybody was invading each other.

wait, that was pretty simple...

>>72996354
Those rifles are all capable of making effective 600 yard shots, why the fuck weren't they shooting? Let them get in close so that you can give up your defensive advantage and die with plenty of spare ammo?

HOI3 is not the most polished game out there yet.

For The Glory, EU3 and Victoria Revolutions are much more polished and bugfree. However none of them handle combat as well as HoI 3. Crusader Kings is fun to be an evil dick of a king that shits on everyone and everything that isn't you family. It depends on what you are looking for.

If you want to explore/colonize the new world and rape the natives as Spain go for For the Glory.
If you want to be a dick of a king and have crusades go for Crusader Kings Deus Vult.
If you want to save Byzantium or other strange countries go for Europa Universalis 3.
If you want to do genocides, build steel factories and have military target practice on socialist rebels go for Victoria Revolutions.
If you want to attack the eastern front with customized massive tanks and experimental jets go for Hearts of Iron 3.
If you want a good multiplayer experience go for Arsenal of Democracy in ww2.

>>72996965
>Problem is that dreadnaught era combat basically consisted of shooting at a speck on the horizon for 3 hours straight.

All modern FPS function this way and they seem pretty popular.
And if not adhering to precise historical accuracy is some sort of caveat you may as well avoid 90% of all historical gaming.

>>72997410
Yes you sold us equipment. That put half of europe in debt, and once the second war came, you completly bankrupted us, breaking the British Empire.

>>72997558
It isn't even adherence to precise historical accuracy.

There were almost 60 battleships and battlecruisers present, yet only 4 were sunk.

You want to make a game about a battle where two of the largest fleets in history sail out to meet one another, then decide they don't want to fight and turn back for port.

You would basically have to rewrite the terms of the engagement itself to make it engaging. You might as well just make a game about Leyte, which was considerably more decisive.

Fuck yes vCoD.

People have a general idea that WW1 is LOL TRENCHES EVERYWHERE but that is not true.

In the beginning there were no trenches.There were just big pushes.Entire start of the war with Serbs and Austria had little to none trench warfare.I can only recall one trench situation but it was not a long period and what followed was battle of Kolubara and that was just one big ass push.Also in the end on Solun front no trenches just big pushes
People are just ignorant.And there are no americunts in this war for the most part so they cant glorify themselves in this game.

American helped bring World War I to an earlier end and resulted in an Allied victory. The United States provided one crucial thing, a whole untapped manpower. For four years a whole European generation was wasting away. Plus on both sides the home front, absolutely exhausted, was wanting the war to end. Without the American entry, the war would have lasted longer. Maybe even an armistice that ended the war, nothing else.

America didn't do jack shit in this war and that is the main reason there are no WW1 games.Fuck the biggest and first ally victories were won by Serbs for fucks sake and we all know that talking good things about Serbs is heresy.

>>72998614
Oh come on, us and you yanks know we always blame France.

The Treaty of Versailles basically fucked over Germany because of Clemenceau. Who wanted to get back at the krauts for fucking their shit. Britian wanted money to pay back America. And America wanted Germany to be punished in a lighty turn.

Anyway we basically let Germany start WW2. "Bro can we have like... More tanks?"
"SURE ITS NOT LIKE THERE WILL BE ANOTHER WAR"
"Hey, brits. So could we borrow one of your subs?"
"RIGHTO!"

Even though Hitler was clever. It was England, France and Americas stupidity that made WW2 happen.

>>72998901
"crush us" of course

I know it was after World War II, but he made the point that American had bankrupted the British during WWII. Imagine how Europe would have been if the Marshall Plan had never been enacted?

>>72998748

No you're both right. Britain fucked up Germany's shit on the battlefield, then France got carried away with the war guilt.

The allies needed someone to blame, and Germany was the best target to pick. The US, Britain and France all agreed that Germany should pay for what it did to Europe.

>>72999044
britain did a bit, but as far as my history classes taught me, it was france that really pushed for such draconian "who fucking cares if they starve" reparations

>>72999044
Of course they did, but they didn't want to leave Germany completely crippled like the Treaty of Versailles left them.

I'm proud of you /v/

>>72998936
You never heard about Operation Paperclip and the Morgenthau plan? You do realize that America did to Germany what UK and France had done before right?

It took until late into the 50's before the faggotry holding Germany down was lifted and then Europe's economy bloomed. Just like Germany always have lifted Europe's economy with massive exports whenever shit hits the fan.

All trench battles were fought by Western powers
All non trench battles were mostly fought by Eastern nations

So western developers don't want to make a game that will not glorify their people.Pure and simple.If americans landed troops there would be a WW1 game.If French and English didn't sit in trenches most of the time there would be a WW1 game.

Maybe some eastern game developers could do it.What are good Slav game developers?

>if theres no way to make a good game out of years and years of trench warfare

You could. What I think you are implying is that there is no way you could make an honest representation of trench warfare into a good game.

I'd tend to agree, but there is no reason you can't keep the setting and build a fun game out of that. Even if it isn't necessarily an accurate representation of history.

There are a whole slew of absurd games based on the US's humiliating antics in the middle-east right now. Many border on the farcical and none of them are even close to what is going on there. But I doubt many people would pay for an honest depiction.

Remember faggots: during the start of WW2 the average soldier was outfitted with almost exactly the same kit as their WW1 counterparts.

Enfields, Colt 1911s, Webblys, 1903 Springfields, most weapons everyone is used to in WW2 gaems.

Could someone dump the mafia 2 posters and playboys please?

> Western Front was of a much larger scale
ok maybe it did BUT east was more important.Axis powers were planing on expanding TO EAST not to west.Bosphorus.

>>72999373
I fucking would.
I'd pay out the ass.

>>72999324
Bolsheviks before 1918? Seriously? Are you trying? They were a fringe party.

>>72999373
don't forget all the WWII games where a single soldier single-handedly wins the war

>M1903 Springfield
>Standard issue during WW2

>not be sure about it
>look it up on Wikipedia
>it says they split apart from the Menshevik faction in 1903

>>72999259
No. But it was America and Soviets pushing for ww1-like reparations and disarmaments. France just wanted the Saar and Britain didn't want to pay for shit and didn't care either way.

/v/, i have never been so proud to be on this imageboard

i love you guys, really i do

>>72999491
Absolutely.
I think there was also a MoH game with you as an American soldier taking part in Operation Chariot.
>My face.

>>72999491
well that's where Storm of Steel comes in.
>>72996651 mentioned it earlier; it's the memoirs of a German stormtrooper. He fought in a ton of battles and got wounded 14 times. Basically a developer could embellish the story a bit and have a game in the typical supersoldier style we're used to.

>>72999578
Can you read? I never said that that they did not exist before 1918. They were barely a minor party before 1918.

>>72999657
A wild Lenin appears!

>DIMITRI, KILL A HIGH PROFILE GENERAL AND GUARANTEE A SOVIET VICTORY AT STALINGRAD
>DIMITRI, SINGLE HANDEDLY STORM BERLIN AND KILL ALL REMAINING WEHRMACHT
>DIMITRI, STORM AND CAPTURE THE REICHSTAG ON YOUR OWN

>>72994666
Not true. Just no OMG USEFUL TANKS AND AMAZING PLANES etc.

>>72999544
The Marines didn't get Garands for a couple years.

>>72999601
Yeah, because the British did not have a sector.

>>72999650
Play any Medal of Honour game

>All Americans
>All of them 20-something with stubble
>All of them act heroic
>All of them shout out "YEAH!" and "AWESOME!"

Ughhhh, at least CoD makes you play as a seprate country. Dont know about Americans but I'm sure as hell fed up at how generic WW2 games are.

>>72999705
nope.avi

>>72999689
Lenin came out of nowhere. If we lived in 1917 Russia we would be surprised in a few years that someone nobody took over the whole country.

>>72999730
Of course they had one. They didn't really want it though. Churchill was against it but most of his staff wanted it. Aside from the actual occupation and hunting nazis for a year they didn't do much to either help them or fuck shit up.
Of course after a war inaction and indifference can be deadly.

>>72999793
>at least CoD makes you play as a separate country

Man, as a Canadian, the Canadian section of COD3 was just embarrassing. I swear to God we're not all like that.

Blood Clot -50hp Lenin

Blood Clot -50hp Lenin

Blood Clot -50hp Lenin
Blood Clot is dominating Lenin

>>72994666
So it would just be like Gears of War?
