WWII Donkeys

We didn't see a donkey skin for the horse in BF1, which would have been awesome and hilarious to use. But how about for WWII?

There were actually corps of donkeys and other equine animals that served during WWII for both sides. Although horses, mules, and donkeys served during WWII, they weren't as prominently utilized compared to WWI. So, that makes me think that this won't be implemented in BFV. And realistically, it won't be implemented for BFV.

I really just want to ride a tiny donkey and get roadkills with it lol. Maybe we can at least get a new donkey skin for BF1??

  • That could look really funny and weird for sure.

    But i'm pretty sure we won't see donkeys in BFV at all.

    That would just be more like a fun effect and not really things that players would like to use alot, or even see more (and weird) animals on a Battlefield.

    It's a fun idea, but I would not imagine it's a release priority, could be a fun DLC thing or perhaps a DLC easter egg though 🙂 I don't imagine the marketing people imagine donkeys or other animals (besides perhaps dogs) to be fitting if BF5 is to be taken seriously as a WWII shooter.

    They are pack animals and did help drag gear around the battlefield. 🙂

    Interesting idea!

    Mules. Mules were used to carry field guns on the mountains. The mountain troops employed them a lot, as that was the only way to transport fast the equipment and even the wounded troops.

    As nice it is, but i think too many Animals in a Battlefield would make it kinda weird tho. 🤔
