  • Has DICE shoehorned too many black characters into Battlefield 1? This video looks at the historical evidence for black soldiers being used in world war one and argues that yes, there are too many.

    Apparently wanting historical accuracy is racism now.

      Blackadder and using the Selbslader1916 as an American is? It's a videogame not a documentary from National Geographic

      American soldiers could have take the german's weapons on their dead corpse. Like the only german tank of WW1, at the end of the war, belonged to the brits. While you can't say that black people were very representative in this war

      Except that 90% of weapons commonly used in BF1 were very rare in real life. A big example would be the Hellreigel 1915, there isn't even an actual specimen of one today. There's only 3 photos, all of which are taken from the right, so the entire left side of the weapon had to be guessed.

      Even if DICE claimed "historical accuracy", It's obvious that's not the case as soon as you see half the dudes running around with machine guns and armored trains are on like three of the maps.
      People are so hung up on the "black soldiers" problem (and I do partially agree it is a problem) that it comes off as racist when it's an inaccuracy among a whole slew of inaccuracies. Hell, most of the campaign you're playing as some one-man army killing machine with no support, you play as Italian Iron Man, you play as some random American dude in the RAF, like, black soldiers is nothing compared to that shit.
      If you people are going to complain about historical inaccuracy, complain about ALL of them.

    To be more historically accurate they should have made non-white soldiers appear by chance. Like you would get a 5% chance of getting a black soldier, and a 20% chance of getting an Indian one.

      ​@@stanislavkaraslavov3090 The Hellfighters spent the most consecutive time in combat out of any other American units of their size. They also suffered the most casualties of any American unit at that time, spending 191 consecutive days in the trenches frontline they lost 1,400 soldiers.
      Here's the kicker about your comment, Sergeant Henry Johnson of the 369th Hellfighters was the first U.S. soldier to be awarded a Croix de guerre by the French (France's highest reward for valor).
      During a night raid Sgt Johnson fiercely fought off 20 German soldiers using his bolo knife, all while protecting his wounded comrade. Johnson was wounded 21 times during the scrap for him & his friend's life. Believe it or not, he emerged victorious beating the Germans back out of the trench and saving his comrades life. Realize this was CQC and multiple Germans tried overpowering him but simply couldn't.
      Mans fired a single bullet, fought tooth & nail dispersing a German night raid of 20+ on his own, ultimately saving his friends life. I don't see where you found the gall to type that but put some respect on 369th's name and don't speak so concretely about subjects you obviously have not looked into. G'day.

      +CHari Cooper How about i`ll make videogame about slavery: it`ll be story about how black people were treated good in America since the very beginning, and worked in good conditions, for big pay, but they rebelled because they are selfish and lazy, and preffer smoking dope and lying around all day. Player will be a white land owner who tries to avenge his family, taking on both black people and corrupt goverment, that let them run wild. There will be special mode, when more black people you`ll kill in one hit, more points you`ll get. You`ll get to shoot Lincoln in the face
      And when everyone will gather arounbd me screaming all kind of shit, calling me all kind of things- from racist all the way to historically inacurate, i`ll just say "hey, it`s a game, go waste your time on something else".
      I hope you do realize that was sarcasm- mainly because i don`t have programming skill :) - but i want you to realize that games are now medium, and that they convey knowlege, or at least have power to do that. Not to mention, this game is set in real world, in real period of time. This is not called "Battlefield: Alternative History". Just because some people are fucking stupid does not mean, rest of the world has to be too
      Not to mention, this is just an opinion of the guy

    There should not be black men fighting on a German side on the western front in a game set during WWI. It is a nonsensical sight to behold that does history and the genuine black men of WWI a disservice. Black people during this time period were heavily persecuted and would never in a million years have been allowed to bear a German military uniform on the western front. This is sadly the reality of the time period and Dice should have stayed true to that. People will say it is "just a video game", but a movie based on real historical events is "just a movie", and so I wonder what the reaction would be like if suddenly Nelson Mandela was portrayed by a white actor? or if Mary Seacole was played by a white actress? or if suddenly a historically "black event" was whitewashed with an array of white faces? I think black people would have something to say, or at the least, would be surprised.
    Of course, black people featuring in factions where they make no sense is not the only thing that is historically inaccurate about BF1. For example, people like to point out that many of the guns never saw use in the war, and yes that's true, but for the sake of making the game play "fun" and "varied" (an essential component for any game), prototype weapons needed to be added to the mix. Adding black people to the game in scenarios where they make no logical or historical sense doesn't make the game play more fun. In fact, it's an immersion-breaker to many. If black people were added purely for the sake of inclusion, they should have added a historically correct black faction, like the Nova Scotia No. 2 Construction Battalion, and implemented a story that focused on their fight for equal representation and the contribution they made to the war effort, such as repairing roads, logging and building trenches. That is a historical correct scenario that most people wouldn't have minded. On the contrary in fact, it might even have encouraged people to take more of an interest in the lesser-known roles that black people played during the Great War. Instead, they chose to put a black man on the front cover of the game and basically laugh in the face of history, and in turn at black people's long struggle for equality during that time period. No, black people were not heavily represented during WWI at all, largely due to prejudice, so don't put a black man on your front cover and pretend they weren't.
    If you want to make a modern shooter where ethnic diversity is a more plausible scenario, go ahead, but not in a WWI shooter where it makes absolutely no sense. The men who fought for Germany on the western front during WWI were white, as were the overwhelming majority (like 99.999%) of allied soldiers. I am sorry if that offends oversensitive people in the 21st century who insist on everything being inclusive, but I am afraid it is simply a fact that black men were nonexistent in the German military on the western front. Facts don't care about people's feelings. A game like Verdun did it correctly. M2H and BlackMill Games made a game based on WWI and put white men in it, because that makes sense...

    As a African American I strongly agree that there are to many blacks(indians as well) in the game. If they make a dlc that is set in the African theater of war, I would like them to make the majority of the soldiers African with a mixture of Indians on the British side as they fought extensively in Africa. I wouldn't want to see a bunch of white soldiers fighting in Africa as much as I wouldn't want to see a bunch of black soldiers fighting in Europe, Especially in a WW1 setting. I hope DICE will fix this or at least let us customize our soldier more in a future update.

Nor do I get upset when a politician I don't like gets elected. You don't get it. I thought I was clear in my first post. It's not that I disagree or agree with people changing history in games/television/movies/etc. It's that I have more important things to worry about in life.

    I still wish that Dice had focused more on World War aspect for diversity. I know WW1 is primarily a European war but even more locations all around the world would do the setting justice. That's why I appreciated including Russian Revolution in Tsar DLC and Middle East maps in base game.
    Not to mention an African Front DLC would have provided an excellent opportunity to represent blacks. But of course that would take effort, something slapping black soldiers into the German army does not require.

      It's 6% black soldier representation actually.
      If you care about four black dudes in a game about WWI you should also care about the rocket guns, the MP18s, the AZVs going at 40mph, the airships having bombs dropped on them and taking forty damage instead of bursting into flames and the British using K-bullets.
      I could go on and on and fucking on. BF1 is not historically accurate and it never claimed to be. 6% of all possible character models being black is not shocking or disrespectful. You fucking moron, of course there weren't a lot of black people in WWI, but there were only 3,000 MP18s and around fifty Mars Automatics. GET. OVER. IT.

    • @simonlamoureux5440

      I don't understand the issue with the MP18s here, I would think the "experimental" fully automatic variants of what were Bolt Actions would be a bigger realism issue than the MP18. Unless there's something special about the MP18 that I haven't heard of (Not having the game myself). OR, More importantly than the MP18s, the German Tanks. of which there were even less so.

    And why did nobody complain when we had a black protagonist is GTA: San Andreas? Because it was an artistic choice. He was meant to fit in this specific urban area and into the cultural and temporal landscape. We learned to love CJ and identified as him. The reason people get pissed about it in BF1 is that it feels forced, has been motivated because of a ridiculous political climate and it's purely driven by political agenda, not art.

There is exactly one example of a woman serving in a combat role on the Eastern front in the Russian army and she had to get special permission from the Tsar. There was a female unit in the White Army during the revolution but this was just one unit.
