I would agree you would not want that in your arsenal. Cheap metals and production plus the cut out magazine. WWI GTA mod? Sounds amazing!

While the first two may be inspired by movies those movies you listed focus on units, battles, combat. I think if they intertwined the first and second games into a neat story and focused on the suspense of an Bourne Identity like thriller it could be quite fun. There can never be enough...

A nice idea that holds lots of potential. I particularly like the back story and the settings you could create. I must admit I rather play a White soldier than a Red. Interestingly, the game could put you in the shoes of some of the Allied expeditionary soldiers sent to assist the Romanov...

You mean warfare 1917? I enjoy it but that's just me. Not quite fair however to judge WWI as setting when your playing it through a small flash game. But hey, people still like tetris so boring has its advantages to right?

Your avatar says it all....

I think IE is still in development so don't worry about getting on it right away. I'm keeping a sharp eye on this and other games like To End All Wars and some other mods. It seems for the time being that mods will be all we get. Large producers are toying with other eras in Darkest Days to see...

Debate is good. Its informative and apparently for some people (unlike yourself)the lack of understanding causes close mindedness towards this idea. Perhaps with a bit of history, people can appreciate the subject and therefore understand if not embrace the idea of a WWI game.

Yes its for Ostrfront 41-45 Couldn't agree more. Trench warfare needs to be experienced on a small personal scale. RTS could use 1914 or 1918 which were the most mobile years of the War for the Western Front. RTS would need to make an alternate history.

This was an article which interstingly tackles a couple of elements in what could be a potentially new genre in FPS or wargaming. Its about To End All Wars

This is truly a superb observation. The one thing I'd say is that the German high Command wanted to end the war prematurely because they knew that the Allies would crush them irrevocably. The Allied leaders as you stated were under political pressure to accept the terms as war weary people...

The Iron Europe game right holds quite a bit of promise. The weapons and level designs are still coming out but they're overhauling the Tournament III engine for it.

But you didn't get to the later pages where fair examination was given to trench warfare. If you still don't like the idea after having read some of the in depth proposals then say so.

It seems most likely. A WWII mod team is on its development. Here's their main site. http://www.ironeuropegame.com/news.php More info:http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?p=474793

As indicated here there is plenty of room for interesting play. The problem lies in the story and design of the game with the War as the setting. You can't give the modern player the feeling that they won the war for good because we know about the results in WWII. What could be done instead is a...

Hidden and Dangerous 2 is my favorite game of all time for many reasons. But I didn't like the game's attempt at battle scenarios. Not lively enough (not that too lively like Call of Duty 4 is better). Despite the ability to kit out soldiers before going into missions, I didn't like that you...
