  • - Oh, Battlefield 1!

  • We're gonna be shooting somebody, for sure.

  • - (FBE) A while back, you reacted to the trailer for this game,

  • where we told you you were probably going to play

  • this World War I shooter eventually.

  • Well, today is that day.

  • - I see, because I've seen this before, here in the studio.

  • - Was that the gory one where all the heads were being cut off?

  • - (FBE) Mm-hm. - Oh god.

  • It was horrible, absolutely horrible.

  • - (FBE) You'll be playing the game mode "Conquest,"

  • in which you and 63 other people fight to control

  • multiple strategic points across a massive map.

  • - I just hope they don't curse me out.

  • - It sounds a little daunting.

  • - They're going to wipe the floor with me!

  • - If I can figure out those buttons, somebody is going down!

  • - "Capture and hold the flags."

  • - "Massive all-out war: hold the majority of flags

  • and eliminate enemy troops to win."

  • - I'm the new recruit in town.

  • - This is moving to the left, and this is-- oh, this is going down?

  • - (soldier) Keep it going, boys! - Hard to center it.

  • - I don't see anybody. Let's see, where...

  • I guess I have to go further forward.

  • - (voice-over)...has arrived. (gunshots)

  • - I'm down already.

  • (rapid gunfire) - To the right. Whoops.

  • (laughing)

  • - So what it was-- "you versus foe: 0-1."

  • Oh my god, mine died already.

  • I don't know what I'm doing.

  • - (FBE) The red letters are the flags that you need to capture and defend.

  • That's your objective.

  • - Okay, and now the blue one is mine.

  • - The flags, where can I find the flags?

  • - Get those flags over there, okay.

  • Follow that bayonet, you idiot!

  • - That's the only way to go through here.

  • No, no, no, no, no, back.

  • (soldier barking orders) Go through here, okay.

  • Oh, this is like a maze.

  • (shooting)

  • - Ay, he hit me!

  • So I'm dead now?

  • He's going to run over me. (anxiously) Oh!

  • - How do I capture them?

  • - (FBE) Yep, so if you hit X right now, you're going to load onto the map.

  • - Oh, oh, I see.

  • And now I bring it back to my base or something?

  • - (FBE) You just have to hold the area.

  • - Oh. (explosion)

  • I have absolutely no idea who I'm holding it from.

  • - (FBE) See that flag going up right in front-- oh.

  • - Yeah. - (FBE) Yeah, that's a control point.

  • - Did I just get killed?

  • Okay, and I'm back. Okay.

  • All right. - (FBE) Oh, you're in a tank now.

  • - So I'm in a tank?

  • (firing)

  • Okay, there's someone around here somewhere.

  • I hear fire.

  • - Flag, flag, where are you?

  • Aah! (laughing)

  • Ay yi yi, Josie, you just can't be a fighter, you know?

  • Oh-oh, there's a flag.

  • I wish I could be an expert on this because it's fun.

  • I really, really like it.

  • (firing) (enemy moans)

  • - Did I get something? No. (laughing)

  • (laughing)

  • Where is it?

  • - This B, how come I'm not hitting-- I guess I have to go back further.

  • Did I just get a [inaudible]?

  • (firing) - There.

  • I shot-- I had that guy right in my sights, and mean 100%.

  • (firing)

  • And nothing's happening. - (FBE) That's not an enemy.

  • That's a control point you need to capture.

  • - Oh, well, then what-- - (soldier) There's one over there!

  • - What is the point of what I'm doing?

  • Uh-oh, I got shot.

  • - Great graphics. It's awesome.

  • Oh, barbed wire? That does not bother me!

  • I wear it around my feet for traction!

  • - Trying to get that, uh, one there.

  • - (FBE) Now you just captured that point.

  • - Oh, okay, oh, that's good.

  • - I see a target. They're running away from me.

  • - (FBE) The little blue dots mean it's, uh, a teammate.

  • - Oh, that was a teammate? - (FBE) Yep.

  • - Oh, really?

  • You mean to tell me I've been using friendly fire the whole time?

  • (firing)

  • Ay! He killed me again.

  • I know now the secret. - (FBE) What's that?

  • - I should go really fast and then shoot at it right away.

  • - There's some rocks. There's more rocks.

  • There's more rocks.

  • Oops, oops, oops, oops, oops!

  • Is that my friend?

  • - (FBE) I think that's your friend, yep.

  • - Oh, then I don't won't shoot my friend.

  • - Wait a minute, that's a German flag!

  • That's my flag!

  • I'd better protect it then.

  • Jawohl. Ja! (speaking German)

  • (speaking German aggressively)

  • - I'm trying to get the, uh, technique of this

  • and I feel like I'm doing a better job.

  • The more I feel like I have a little bit of talent,

  • the more interested I am in the game.

  • All of my moral complaints about hurting people

  • or something like that are kind of not in the picture right now.

  • "Deploy armored train." A train is coming through there?

  • (train whistle blows)

  • Where would a train come through that?

  • I wouldn't think there'd be any tracks left.

  • - (voice-over) We have an armored train on route.

  • - I know, I can hear it.

  • Don't kill me, please. You did kill me.

  • Oh, Josie, you're getting old.

  • - Okay, so now I'm on the train.

  • Now, okay, I just let the train go and I try to look for bad guys?

  • Okay, there it is. So shoot-- shoot the bad guys.

  • I'm way up in the air. I'm flying!

  • - Where's my gun? I don't even know where my--

  • Do I have a gun? I don't seem to have one anymore.

  • I guess I'm just doing the train.

  • (firing)

  • Oh, I see, it's a turret on the train.

  • I didn't-- (scoffs) I just got blown up.

  • - (voice-over) We have taken Objective...

  • - Okay, so now I'm up-- it looks like an attic.

  • Are we hiding?

  • - Oh my god, I'm flying?

  • But who am I trying to get?

  • Oh. (laughing)

  • - Gee. Ooh.

  • (plane instruments going haywire)

  • Oh, is that-- oh no, no! (laughing)

  • I was just going to say, that is cool.

  • (firing)

  • - They hit me again, I think.

  • It's really affecting me,

  • like I'm the one that's being really hit. (laughing)

  • - (voice-over) We have lost Objective George.

  • - Do you mean E? - (FBE) You just captured it.

  • You just captured a flag.

  • - I did?

  • Seems I didn't do anything.

  • - I guess you really have to spend a lot of time doing these games

  • to know what you're doing, and... I don't know if that many is left.

  • - I don't see any flags.

  • - "Defeat?!" It means I lost?

  • - "Defeat." Oh.

  • - "Defeat."

  • - I guess I'm defeated.

  • - "Victory." Somebody took them down.

  • Was that me?

  • - Oh, I just got defeated.

  • So which one-- - (FBE) You were the German side.

  • You were the left one.

  • I was the left guy? No wonder I lost!

  • I should lose.

  • - "Defeat."

  • I captured 31 flags? - (FBE) No, the other team did.

  • - Oh. (laughing)

  • I think that it might take me several years to learn it.

  • - Oh no, did I die again?

  • - (FBE) No, your team lost. - I can see why.

  • I was on it. (laughing)

  • - I liked this.

  • Of all the games that you've asked me to play,

  • this was the best.

  • - This much action, it threw me off at first

  • because I don't think of World War I as having this much action in it.

  • - Most of the kids probably don't even know

  • what the hell World War I is.

  • My impression of the war, I think of trenches,

  • and people being hungry, and people being wet.

  • Here, they were just running around.

  • - I could see where that game could be really terrifically exciting,

  • especially if you were effective,

  • but I wasn't very confident most of the time.

  • - Battlefield 1 is number one.

  • If I could play it again, for, like, 15 hours,

  • I could maybe shoot somebody except me. (laughing)

  • - Thanks for watching this episode of Elders Gaming

  • on the React channel.

  • - What games should we play next? Let us know in the comments.

  • - Definitely more explosions here than in history class.

  • Bye, everyone.

  • - Hey everybody, Derek here, a producer from the React channel.

  • Look, I don't have time to talk right now.

  • Apparently, there's donuts in the break room.
