Movement is also much slower-paced now and unlike the last several games in the series. This means if you take a lot of fire and get hit several times you can't just go hide until your health comes back, which changes the flow of gameplay significantly. Other squadmates will be able to supply you with ammo as well. Now, the only way to heal yourself is going to be via the medics in your squad. One way the developers have made this change is by removing the automatic health regeneration that the series has become so well-known for. The biggest alteration to the gameplay in the campaign is the decision to move away from a 'lone wolf' style story that encouraged players to run-and-gun their way through levels, fighting on their own, and paying little attention to actual military tactics. As far as we can tell, it sounds similar to the vignette-style storytelling from Electronic Arts and DICE's Battlefield 1. The aim is to show that World War II was truly a global conflict between all of the Allies and all of the Axis, not just United States and Germany. The epic, storied D-Day battle on the beach at Normandy will be featured in the game and is expected to be a hallmark moment for the campaign.Īs opposed to previous games, the campaign is aiming to cover a wider breadth of stories from American soldiers, British soldiers, German families, and a female French resistance leader. The majority of the story takes place between 19, but some flashback scenes are expected as well. Since this year's campaign takes place during WWII, that automatically sets it apart from other entries. The story is centered around a squad in the 1st infantry Division of the United States army and follows their missions along the European Theater's Western Front in World War II. Most people will only play the campaign once and never return to it again (if they don't just jump straight into multiplayer that is) but it still serves as an important first impression of the game for millions of fans.
