    The subtext of the opening lines is amazing. "My name is Peter Muller, and I was there." This is a battle-hardened valorous soldier of the Wehrmacht confiding in us that he considers himself a child, still making the same mistakes that his father tried to warn him of. He exhibits shame and dignity at the same time in his admission. These two feelings stay with us through the entire mission.

      Peter Muller was a fictional tank commander, tasked with eliminating forces that were attempting to destroy the very country he resided in with his family.
      And yet you say he should feel shame for defending his nation and doing his part to protect the ones he loved from the enemy.

      I never said he should be ashamed. I never said he was real. I never said he was evil. I never said Germans are evil. I never said that home and family should not be protected. I said:
      He. FEELS. Ashamed.
      Is he ashamed of his actions? No. He is ashamed of his inaction.
      When he was a child his father reprimanded him for being there and doing nothing. His self-shaming admission "And I was there" connects his childhood story to the time the game is set in. He witnessed his countrymen slip deeper and deeper into the atrocities of the Nazi regime and did nothing to stop them. He spends the campaign being faced again and again with the fact that his leaders were wrong in method and in doctrine until finally he can no longer defend his inaction against them. He resists admitting it; fighting for victory, fighting for the crewmates, fighting for Germany, fighting for honor. One by one his philosophical defenses collapse and he is left fighting for an indefensible nation and an indefensible belief.
      His actions were never the problem. He saw the problems in his countrymen but chose to do nothing about them and that is his shame that he is expressing
      Is his shame justified? Doesn't matter. This is a story, not a therapy session.
      Also I don't care about your grandpa. Why should I? That's a rhetorical question. Drop that point if you have any sense.

The rings were meant to break up the silhouette of the gun and help it blend in with foliage and obscure which way the gun was pointed.

      I think he wasn't shot really, the americans shot the shitty kid before he had the chance to shoot Müller. Otherwise he wouldn't have narrated his story at the beginning. What bothers me though, is that he didn't narrate at the final scene of his story. Probably because he couldn't say anything, because of Kertz being shot by the kid. That's just my take on the final scene. (Hope it was like that though.) But though I really don't blame the kid, he was someone who was blinded by the ideals. I would've done the same really.

      Could be, though it is unclear these days, how much exactly the general populace and common soldiers of the Wehrmacht knew.
      On the one hand we know, e.g. from letters written by German Citizens to the Chancellory in Berlin, that they knew, that trains with screaming people in them drove at night through their villages. The citizens in these latters weren't marred by the fact, that there were screaming people herded like cattle in these trains but that they were disturbing the night's quietness and their sleep, so they asked for the trains to be sent through at different times.
      So they atleast knew that there were "Undesirables" in these trains transported to Who knows where.
      Also, especially on the eastern front, the SS behind the frontline commanded logistical and manpower aid from Wehrmacht Units, who then participated in SS actions to deport and kill people they considered "Undesirable" and all of this, even the organized killing in concentration camps, happened on such a scale that one can rightfully question the tale that many Germans told immediately after the war that allegedly they were clueless.
      If you ask me, a modern day German, I can't imagine that no information about what happened made their way back to Germany proper. True, letters could be censored, but eventually soldiers got back on leave, R&R or anything, telling of what they saw.
      The ones, who were too old to be indoctrinated by the party, maybe some of them did indeed feel guilt and were too ashamed to tell of such events or even taking part in them, having become a murderer.
      Others, who were indoctrinated by the Nazi party, which spouted for years that the Jewish people, in their sick view, should be eradicated, probably even boasted with such deeds and then it was up to the populace to believe it or not.
      I think the German populace knew enough to count 2 and 2 together and that they knew, that Jews were not "just" deported and kept alive in some secluded place.
      Heck, I think the very most Germans today can feel with Kertz in that story, he was a man broken by a war that became senseless, he just wanted it to end, to get home to wife and family. I think historical consensus is that at the very latest Nazi Germany has crossed a point of being unable to win the war at latest in early 1943, with loosing several hundred thousand men at Stalingrad.
      I'd argue they lost it even earlier with attacking the Soviet Union in 1941 in the first place.
      Up until then it was a somewhat localized matter, with France beaten and the Germans pounding Britain from the air, maybe just long enough that they'd sign an armistice at some point and Germany could reshape Western and Central Europe to their liking.
      Damn, we can be happy that the Nazis made the dumb mistakes they did.
      Schröder is a scary kid, so heavily indoctrinated that his path was destined to end in death (much like the Nazis wanted it, emulating Vikings falling in battle in their crazed mind) and taking down everyone around him with him, utterly incalculable.
      The commander would've needed to shoot Schroeder to dispose of him and then capitulate with Kertz to the Allies, but that wouldn't have brought the message across.

    This was the type of war story I was hoping DICE would go for. They should have just made a full campaign out of this instead and then added more chapters bit by bit. They had characters that would have been relatable and had conflicts of interest. You have the fanatic who acts irrationally, the tired veteran who has given up, the new recruit who didn't know what to do, and then the level headed commander who has to make all the decisions. They could have had parts where you decide who leaves to scout the tank and whether to shoot any deserters. The choices made would have consequences in the end so that you could end up with either everyone else dead or everyone lives or somewhere in the middle. We would see the crew full of fighting spirit and energy as they're first deployed in battle and then slowly start to see all the cracks in the Reich as it's driven back. In this case, the commander surrendering to the Allies actually makes sense because this is towards the end of the war (Looking at you Battlefront II)

    At the same time, however, he belonged (like my father-in-law) to the generation of former front-line soldiers who broke off conversations about their own experiences and findings after a very short time. This made it possible for people to seize the power of interpretation who were anything but role models or even "heroes". As for the oath, I'm sure you know
    that the soldiers of the Wehrmacht were also sworn directly to Adolf Hitler. That's a thought that still makes me shudder to this day. As soon as crimes are committed in the name of an oath, the obligation to take an oath ceases in my view.

    Historically, the tank commander would do route recon. If you read Tiger's in the Mud, Otto Carius, one of the top Tiger commanders in the German Army, describes how he argued with a general about not taking a route before he could recon it resulting in one of his tanks being lost to a tank trap. Carius was later wounded while conducting a recon. Muller would have most likely conducted the route recon to get his tank out, not Hartman.

When schroder ran out of ammo from firing at the approaching american forces he turned to peter to see him surrendering and thus tried to shoot him but keep in mind we never see schroder reload so he probably shot but the mag was empty, that is also another reason that adds up to peter surviving

  • @Chocosuchti
    @Chocosuchti 6 ปีที่แล้ว +171

    Out of all of the war stories for battlefield 5, the German has the most depth. From the get go the commander establishes the sense that even if you didn't do anything, you are still a part of it. Then it shifts to the commander telling his name, rank and unit. I think this transition helps greatly to underline how much invested the commander is in this war. He is not just some conscripted soldier, who was dragged into it. He is a commander. This is equally his war, as it is Germany's and he knows it, cause he was there. Really underlying the teaching of his father.
    Not going full analytical here, but compared to the rest of the other campaigns, I feel there is a lot more in depth to each character.
    - We have the soldier, who can barely cope with his PTSD and how it takes over and is the end of him.
    - The gunner, who bravely wants to defend his country from foreigners and who is the youth brainwashed into stupid bravery. He fights his ideal to maintain his humanity and it's clear he is losing.
    - The driver, a man who wants to fight on but has started to question their cause and purpose and only clings on because of hope but falls apart when that hope was taken from him by his own kin. - -- The commander, who knows how dire the situation is for his men and his country, but cannot be allowed to show these emotions or else it will affect the rest of the crew. He tries to control the radical views of the young gunner and is always saddened when he opens his mouth. He keeps it together for his men, so that he can make the best decisions to bring them home but eventually gives up after seeing his friend shot dead by the gunner. The driver lost all hope and the gunner lost his humanity, leading to the commander just giving up. He has had enough.
    I got genuinely sad to see this campaign, compared to the others.

The regime drafted many boys at the age of 16. All they ever knew was this Germany, they were brainwashed to believe all this stuff, and so they fought till death.

    Schroeder's story is a tragic one. He sounds like some 16 year old drafted in the last days of the war, being indoctrinated from a young age by the Nazis, probably growing up to not only believe fanatically in that the "Führer" was always right but also to always follow the authorities, so their commanders in the field.
    He fought for something that was falling apart and felt betrayed by everyone who didn't share this and you can really see, how he too broke, when he screamed at the end, when he saw that his commander capitulated. Then he totally cracked and lashed out, turning his gun around to shoot his commander, feeling forsaken by everyone around him and maybe even having lost all hope.
    There was no way out for that poor young kid, a generation of young people, on both sides of the frontlines, having their lives destroyed by a maniac at the head of Germany who started a senseless war.

    @sergioguerra7551 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2380

    At the beginning let me explain you, every tank commander was heavily trained, and one of the most basic rules when they spot a tank column is first destroy the one in the front which most of the time (with the sharman tanks) haves a heavier cannon, then get the one in the back and if there is another one with a heavy cannon destroy it before the ones that are left, this way the tanks can’t go forward or backwards, so they will probably take a left backwards turn facing the tiger, either they leave or fight they would most likely be destroyed, this mistake is also in the movie “Fury” and it lead to the tiger getting destroyed because of the negligence of the commander, sorry for boring you but i hope you find this interesting

    I think a game following a German soldier through WW2 would be simple to plot:
    Act 1 has them during the invasion of Poland and France. The Germans are running circles around their opponents and the soldiers are all giddy having the war they always dreamed of having. It can also bleed into the North Africa campaign where some of the future problems are hinted at but the mood is still cheery.
    Act 2 jumps to Operation Barbarosa and the invasion of Russia; and unlike before everything is muddy and dirty. Supplies are always short, the enemy seems endless and friends start dying. The dark sides of war are showing now and the mass slaughtering of civilians is becoming impossible to ignore. This is where the idealistic war is stripped away and the war becomes brutal and hard.
    Act 3 has them redeployed to France just in time to have the Allies land and for there to be constant retreats. This is where things become desperate and we see everything falling apart. No matter what they throw at them the Allies just have more to throw back. Add in the war crimes being commited all around them and the war has lost all it's luster now. There is only a bitter fight to the end.

    Imagine being a German soldier in the final days of the war. 4 years prior the Germans seemed unstoppable. Nazi Germany was all some of the younger soldiers knew. For them, the German nation was destined for greatness and the thought that they would lose the war must have seemed impossible. Some of them clung onto hope until the very last moment whilst they fought until the end. I often wonder what sort of emotions must have been present at the end of the war and what sort of adjustments these soldiers would have to make. Nazi propaganda really had them believing that they were invincible. To see it all come crumbling down must have been utterly devastating.

      Most actual soldiers, not SS, didn't give a shit about the Nazi's; in fact many old German ship commanders flew the old Imperial German Navy flag, not the Nazi flag. Most just fought as it was their duty to their nation, and near the end when the SS was wiping out whole German towns for "disloyalty" the German soldiers turned on them. There is even a story where German troops helped the Americans defend civilians from the SS.

    Schroder feels more like a confused youth in the chaos of the war than a cold hearted killer. Its easy to see his views are twisted, as the way he executes Kertz as he saw it as desertion, but then immediately turns to Peter reaffirming the latter's words. Whenever Schroder asks Peter in such a fashion, you can see he is distraught, as the propaganda is clearly false, yet he appears to be scared to have his worst fears realised. He may be the true antagonist in this campaign, but I dont think he is a true killer

It also didn't help that you'd honestly be better off dying on your feet in the eastern front.
