    *"These are people who are uneducated - they don't understand that this is a plausible scenario."*
    - A direct quote from EAs Chief Creative Officer, Patrick Soderlund, when pressed on the utterly disrespectful butchering of history in their game, Battlefield 5.
    I hope this analysis and all the many others go to show just how "uneducated" your games fanbase is, Mr Soderlund.

      When I first found your channel, specifically, the video centered on the newer version of Cold War. This game came into my mind, and I thought to myself “he’s probably going to have an absolute aneurysm with Battlefield five if he gets to it“
      And unfortunately, I wasn’t wrong throughout this video you seem like you are on the absolute verge of just wanting to put yourself into a diabetic coma.
      It’s interesting though because as you and pretty much everybody else is keenly aware the initial release of this actually did gain a lot of people saying that you know there were so many historical inaccuracies and all that stuff. But as we know the head guy for this particular game told everybody that they could go and suck it and obviously this resulted in battlefield five having some extremely poor sales, and even worse reviews.
      I definitely commend you for having the courage and the willpower to look over this game. I look forward to anything you might have on mind in the future.

      Hey guys just wanted to say something, When I started to watch Frosty1, I was quite surprised and fascinated with the level of inaccuracy produced by COD, a few games tried, and a few didn't, and downright slandered history. But after I watched the BF5 video I was even more shocked and disappointed with it. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of the Battlefield series and I believe that Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 were the Golden Age of the Battlefield franchise and were also the pinnacle of what Battlefield should be. But looking at BF5 I was disgusted with the franchise, It made the COD game inaccuracies cute compared to what they decided to put out, EXCEPT FOR VANGUARD AND COLD WAR THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY SHIT, But the rest of the COD games tried somewhat. To Frosty1, today's video was an absolute masterpiece and a great historical review/documentary, I learned a lot today thanks to you. Please continue to put these videos in the future and I shall always be your supporter. See you soon with more videos and god bless you brother.

    There's 3 levels of inaccuracies roughly in games.
    1) "minor" details like uniforms & weapons not lining up with dates (which are easily forgivable)
    2) "major" details like the entire wrong uniforms or weapons on troops (which are much harder to overlook)
    3) "inexcusable" details like different nations participating in events
    1's are really nitpicks and while its fine to bring them up we can't really fault them for not investing significant time into catching every possible minor mistake.
    2's are really simple mistakes and shouldn't happen more then a few times (if at all), but some forgiveness should always be in the wings because mistakes happen.
    3's should never happen. These aren't fine details that are easily missed or require years of research to fully understand and chart out.
    These are so basic even wikipedia cant mess them up. (and that's quite something)
    It's really tragic to see how far dice has fallen...

    Howdy, thought I'd dogpile on a couple more observations
    0:25 - Both men have German Gewehr 98s with American M1905 bayonets awkwardly grafted onto them. The 369th guy should have a French Berthier, and neither should have that bayonet.
    46:40 - The M1A1 Carbine in the game also has the very late war bayonet lug and adjustable rear sight. It's very difficult to find any images of rifles with either of these features being used in Europe. They're most commonly seen on standard M1 Carbines in the Pacific in mid-late 1945.

      Three of the campaigns (which are in the DLCs) are as germans it is definetely worth checking out. If you like RTS games then you will definetely have fun.
      1st campaign is a Market Garden Campaign where you as commander of Kampgruppe Lehr fight of the Allied Paratroopers.
      2nd is Tiger Ace campaign where you go on the Rampage in the Villers-Bocage destroying British Armor.
      3nd is my absolute favorite. Falaise Pocket from Perspective. You fight the never ending onslaught of Allied troops holding the town of Trun.

    Some other inaccuracies I noticed in ''The Last Tiger'' are:
    - None of the crew have any visible insignia on their uniforms: i.e breast eagles, cuff titles, collar patches, etc.
    - Tiger tanks were not filled up with a bunch of kids. The tiger was seen as an incredibly valuable piece of weaponry and it's crews were handpicked across all fronts and units. Tigers were thus reserved for the best tank crewmen Germany had to offer.
    - The German officer's caps have no Wehrmacht eagle on them and instead only have the oakleafs on the space that should be occupied by the eagle.
    - At 1:29:04 we see the German officer. His rank however is *impossible* to tell. He's seen having the oakleafs on his cap placed on the right space, but still no eagle. He's also noticeably missing his officer's shoulder boards *AND* breast eagle. Additionally, he has 1 single medal: The knight's cross. This is not possible as it the knight's cross equates to 3 iron crosses earned. Eventhough He's not wearing the ribbon for the 2nd class or even the 1st class on his left breast pocket.

However the since 2018 this law changed to include video games in that clause. Battlefield 5 came out in November 2018 and The last Tiger in December 2018. So they had a lot of time to change to the swastikas. Also as to why they're not included in the American or British version of the game I have no idea.

    This was super interesting to watch, though I have some fixes on the tank sections (I love tanks)
    - The Tiger in Norway in the prologue is inaccurate even if the year was right. I can't find anything showing Tigers being sent to Norway, not to mention how stupid it would be to send a tank with such a limited production to an inactive front
    - Missed Neubaufahrzeug appearance opportunity.
    - The lack of Panzer III's in all the North Africa sections is criminal
    - The Panzer IV H's in "Under No Flag" are in grey paint when they should be in literally any form of tropical camo for German tanks (tan colors). Panzer IV H's started production after dunkelgelb was made the standard base coat as well. All of this makes them even more inaccurate
    - There is no visual differences that identify the Panzer IV at 1:11:18 as an F2, as there was not much changed between it and the Ausf. G and so counting that as an inaccuracy is a little unfair.
    - I think you missed that the Sdkfz. 251's in "The Last Tiger" have the older more complex rear hull shape, when by 1945 the design was simplified.
    - You also missed that the catastrophic explosions that all the tanks suffer in game would be even more unlikely for the late war Shermans due to wet stowage.
    - The Peter's tank in "The Last Tiger" is not a Tiger Ausf. H but is a Tiger Ausf. E
    - The old style cupola continued into early E production, though by 1945 the new type cupola would have been more common (Tank Encyclopedia has an illustration of a 1945 Tiger with the late suspension and early cupola similar to what the on in game is like).
    - External smoke grenade launchers were not universal and there was an internal one for later Tigers (located behind the loader's hatch).
    - The in game model show the tank having the later type suspension (interleaved pattern shows the outer 4 wheels further away from the sprocket wheel) which is further proof of it being and Ausf. E Tiger. This later suspension also should have the steel rimmed wheels (model in the game looks like rubber so that is still inaccurate).
    - The fact that it is a Tiger Ausf. E makes the North Africa air filters even more inaccurate than if it was a Tiger Ausf. H.

      When I watched it (as a Pole), the movie seemed quite appropriately grim and nihilistic. Whatever its faults may be, I do think that the trench sequence of the movie, from the arrival of the recruits to the battle itself, is the best of the film.
