Untold Stories of WW2?

I heard rumours a while back that DICE was planning to include the Finnish Continuation War (1941-1944) in Battlefield V as one of the war stories. But for some reason the idea was dropped during development.  Battlefield V was supposed to be all about untold stories of World War 2. The Continuation War is a largely unexplored conflict in World War 2 shooters, not a single AAA game has included it. It would have been nice to experience this conflict in video game form, even just once. Especially because my own grandfather fought in this war and he got a severe case of PTSD when he returned home. So severe that he never wanted to talk about it, just went all quiet when somebody asked him to tell about the war. So if such a war story was indeed in development, why did they drop it?

  • I'm sure what the exact reason was but development for V was definitely rocky; it could have been any number of things but I agree, that would have made for a nice war story

  • There are movies both about the the Winter War and Continuation War, but there are no triple A fps games including them, which is kind of disappointing. Even American film industry seems to be taking on the subject. There is currently an American film in development that is about the famous sniper Simo Häyhä, nicknamed "The White Death".

  • Yep, untold story of WW2, lot of peoples cheating to be the top global 🙂
