I wouldn't be surprised by it.I'd hope they'd also put in one of the French anti Zeppelin interceptor blimps, which had 47mm and in one case a 57mm gun, but I'm not holding my breath. Most glorious air defense concept ever.

I also won't be surprised if the single player, because you know it will have single player, looks alike like the movie The Assassination Bureau's ending with the Zeppelin sword fight.

Single-player campaign. It's rather disturbing to see enemy soldiers standing still waiting for you to kill them because they were the ones in shell-shock.

I don't think I've ever seen war look so brutal in a game before. I am 100% stoked to play this now.

The beta was super underwhelming; also only 9 maps in stock game as they shoved in hardline, so no way will I buy it until they offer a bundled discount.

That's the problem with most multiplayer-centric games these days. They want to you buy the season pass, which costs as much as the damn game. Edition here in Canada with the pass bundled with the game is $160! Back in the day that would get you the big special edition with extra goodies like a figure or art or something.

So...the game has been released, and some of the game modes are really fun. Operations is a blast because you feel as if you are really playing a single-player campaign with a massive army.
